.WASHINGTON, April 17.——PQlitical
picketing, often of the peaceful sort.
and more often with militant accom-
panimtnts, is running epidemic
ital their mecca all year round, again
see bands of women slowly parading
about the streets bearing banners
with a wide variety of inscriptions.
' es to impress its demands, arguments
ultimately adopts the picketing sys-
tem, which was first introduced in the
capital by a branch of the Woman
,Sudragists, about ten years ago. The
iespousing the cause of Irish freedom,
against the British Embassy. Their
campaign has caused , somewhat. of
,,.a flurry because it is not without its
international aspects.
The British Embassy, for instance,
is foreign territory; whether the side-
walk in front of it is American terri-
ltory, no one has essays-d to decide.
Moreover, there is a Federal law
which penalizes any person who “as-
saults” a diplomatic representative of
a friendly power. Whether the pick-
eting of the Embassy is an annoyance
to the British diplomats, and whether
an annoyance is an assault,'within the
technical meaning ‘bf the law, is an
additional question.
Then there is involved the Question
of preserving the public peace, for dis-
turbances often grow out of the pick-
tting. Often, some. woman passerby,
in ,
'Washington again, and the thousands
of tourists who make the national cap-'
. Seemingly, every cause which wish!
or protests on “the powers that be,"|
, latest to adopt the method are women
and there have directed their protests,
expresses her disagreement with the
banners the pickets bear by ripping
them to bits, and the pedestrian and
the picket have a. scrimmage. with
sometimes regular old fashioned hair
pulling. The police patrol clangs up.
,both parties to the quarrel are hns~
|tlcd off to the station house. Relief
,pickets immediately arrive. The po~
.lice court gets another case.
‘ The personnel of the picketing forc-
es furnishes an interesting study in
human nature. They are women ap-
parently from all walks of .life. Many
,bear evidences of breeding, education
and social position. Others are wo-
men who appear to be of the opposite
types. Every picketing campaign
brings out new charges that‘many.
‘ I pickets are “hired" fOr the work by
others, who are willing lo provide sub-
stitutes and do not wish to picket in
the streets in all sorts of weather.
; The Suffrage pickets, who made a
record for getting arrested, jamming
the police court docket and finally
having a. hunger strike, patterned aft-
er their British sisters, were compos-
ed apparently oi‘ women of all classes.
Many whose names are nationally
,known, did picket duty, spent nights
3in a. police station cell and, finally,
did time in the work-house. Some of
ithem, if the truth were known, were
I freed by husbands who disapproved of
:their actions. There was more than
:one case of a husband promising the
lauthoritics he would undertake the
lresponsibility of making his wife “he
igood," and more cases of stormy
{scenes at the work-house when the
husband arrived to take the wife home ;
l over her protests.
\l‘ith the ado tion, by Congress, of
lthe resolution i' the Woman Suffrage
'Amendment to the Constitution, the
iSuti‘ragists laid off, but they had fired
an example in a local association of
negroes, who were demanding the dis-
missal of a man of their race from
thp local school administration. So

the negro women, mammalian, picket-
ed the streets surrounding the school
administration building, bearing ban-
ners. Their picketing, however, was
, intermittent ,and the negro educator,
to whom they objected, still holds his
job.
British humor all but. broke up the
pigketingrof the British Embassy,
iwith its possibilities é: disagreeable
incidents of an inter tional flavor,
when, on the first day, the Embassy.
oflcials sent out and invited the pick-
ets in to afternoon tea. It probably
was a temptation, for a cold, raw wind
was sweeping the city, but‘ the leaders
pulfed stern faces and declined the in-
vitation.
The Embassy is on Connecticut ave-
nue, in the heart of the. downtown
business and residence district, not
far from Dupont circle. The neighbor-
?hood might be compared to Fifth ave-
nue, in New York, in the fifties.
Thousands of shoppers, tourists and
Government clerks and officials, on
their way to office, pass by,1nd, for

~watching the pickets and hoping for
a scrimmage. The old and deserted
.Austrian Embassy, once the scene of
social gaieties. in the prosperous days
of the Hapsburgs, stands grim, silent
and dusty, just across the street. No-
body knows who owns it now—is is a
highly valuable piece of property

I house James G. Blaine occupied while
Secretary of State; Dolly Madison's
house is not far off in another direc-
tion. Practically every buildingjn the
vicinity has housed some notable, at
some time or other, and the neighbor-
hood is a playground f r the sight-
seeing wagons. The pro- rish pickets
selected a battle ground where there
will be plenty of onlookers.
The first arrests of the irish pick -
ers Were not unaccompanied by ee-

three classes: first, those used as
string beans; second, those grown to
