OFFICIAL COUN1lY AND CITY PROCEEDIN?_S_ e SENTIMENT AGAINST ANTI-TOBACCO CRVUJSADE naiie was sent out to 12,518 editors ask- “Do you favor Recently a questionna ing three questions regardin g t.h.e use of f.obza\cco.1 b you ¢ the enactment of laws. prohibiting the personal use jof to acc% by adults? In your jndgment‘doe.s the general semtiment o your community favor such legislation? Ts the use of tobacco personally objectionable to you?” These were the three ques- tions asked of the editors. O the 12,518, to whorn the ques- tions were put, 7,847 replied. ' Those replying rep_resent a com- bined circulation of 21,879,046, Of the 7,347 editors rgplymg, 7,393, or 95 per cent, represented the publgc,septln'nent in their community as opposed to anti-tobacco legislation. Three per cent estimated public sentiment as favorable tol the prohibition of tobacco. There were 174 or 2 per cent in doubt. k If the replies of these editors may })e taken as a fa}r ther- mometer of the feeling of the country, it will be some time be- fore there will be as great a demand for.tl}g prohll}ltlo:n of ‘l{he use of the weed as there was Jor the proh.lbltlol'l of hqu.rn:. .Wxth the sentiment apparently so strong agsinst the prohibition of the use of tobacco it would be folly to attempt to legislate against it even if such were anti.cipated. e ) . PRACTICE WHAT YOU PREACH Big corporations are vociferously demanding a reduction in the pgrice of labor. They can not understand why the laborer: should object to such a reduction—or perhaps they prefer not t.o understand. . \ A good captain in time of war does not ask his men to. go where he is not willing to lead. That wou)-d_ be cowardice ‘and poor judgment,-and neither would last long in the army..: The chief officials are the ¢aptains of industry. "'Crat:ts-g men and laborers are the under-officers and men.” Captains of industry should emulate the»_captarms of the army. They should learn to lead instead of drive. ‘Americans will follow a good leader, but they object to ‘being ‘driven like sheep. . 1\)then the captains of industry. begin the downward trend by reducing their own salaries in proportion to t.he reduction demanded from their men there will be less objection voiced by labor. . Ot MUST SEIZE “ON ANY PRETEXT” The cat hopped out of the bag the other day, and now our suspicions are verified. Paris newspapers came out boldly and demanded that‘: French troops seize the great Rhur basin in Germany “on any pretext.” The basin is rich in coal and its value is beyond com- ute. P The press demanded the seizure regardless of whether Germany met the reparations demands of the French or not. Seize and hold them on any pretext! Millions of ‘Americans will lose faith in the honor of the French because of this exhibition of greed. They will be long in recovering the position they have lost in the estimation of the world. ' Seizure of the basin would be a justifiable retaliatory act in the event of Germany’s refusal to make restitution. To seize it on “any pretext, regardless,” would be beyond| the realm of reason and justice. It would be idiotic, and eventu-! ally suicidal. L S MR President Harding is sure one accommodating fellow. He is playing right into the mitts of the irreconcilable senators by furnishing them something to orate about just as they were run- ning out of thunder. . ] A ss Requiring women ot serve on juries may be all right, but we fear its effect upon the legal profession. Not all lawyers are experts at determining the brand of candy to take into court. —o0 A correspondent complains that a great many 'American business men are losing their commercial honor. If it is only commercial it is probably not worth keeping. it e R If the fool newspapers don’t soon let up on this crazy Ein- stein stuff we’ll be forced to conclude that it is the last syllable of his name that catches their fancy. v ey D Doctors have again been warning us against the germs that collect on paper money. .

Commission Enright, -accord- ing to his own story, always ready to save money for the department, found that one of the traffic division’s lights was not working one evening on the avenue, so he fined Dr. Harris five {years’ pay.
