OFFICIAL COUNTY AND CITY PROCEEDINGS —_—— h PARENTAL RESPONSIBILITY One of the leading social characteristics of the present day is the loosening of parental authority. There is little question but what this has had a weakening effect on the type of our civilization. There is, however, little, if any, use of harping on the matter unless some positive remedy can be provided. Society is the individual write large, to use a suggestion of Plato’s, The wisest thing is to make a diagnosis of a disease, make prescrip- tions according to the best of our judgment, and leave it to the good conscience of the patients to administer the medicine when and where needed. The word “authority” itself has been under fire of criticism for the last generation or two, Few have the same ideas of its nature as they had, and somg have no particular ideas about it at all. These latter take advantage of the transition period of thinking and make their practice as broad as decency will allow. The spirit of liberty is in the air, and some mistake this for li- cense to do as they please. Parents have felt the reaction and where they have not understood the inwardness of the move- ment from arbitrary authority to substantial authority, they have lost the hold they should have on their own homes. Be tween this phase of the situation and the example it sets, the effect is exceedingly injurious, The time for & change in parental leadership is due, Both;| by nature and by law parents have the priority of influence over the children. of the nation and its government are undermined, This word “guthority” is not a fiction, It'needs a few definition, and peo- ple need a better understanding of it. There is such a thing, but it is based on the fundamental facts of life and not on outworn traditions and customs . Parents should take more time and care to get on the right plane.—Manitoba Free Press. S g POSSIBLE, BUT NOT PROBABLE ‘A noted Japanese statesman says that if the president of the United States will call a congress of nations for the purpose of discussing international disarmament, Japan will promptly respond, and that such an act would go far toward the elimina- tion of all friction between the Americans and the Japanese. It is possible, but not probable, The one great outstanding ambition of the Japanese is so- cial equality, and this involves the unrestrieted right to inter- marriage, That we can not grant, much as we might desire to meet them in a friendly spirit. Again, why should the United States be the power to call| such a congress? We are an isolated people, with nothing to gain by inter- fering in the affairs of the old world, and no desire to do so, We are practically disarmed as it is, while the nations across the water are spending huge sums in building up a sys- tem of national defense. If Japan is eager for international disarmament, why does not the mikado take the initiative in such a movement? We know of no government that is more feverishly augmenting its fighting ability than the one that sits at Tokio, Some nations, it seems, are averse to taking their own| medicine, et b RELIEF IN SIGHT? If a settlement of the Irish question is made that will be reasonably satisfactory to both sides it will be one great relief not only to them, but to the people of the United States as well, :Ou.r country today is practically divided into two camps on the sub_]ecp—a minority of ardent champions of the Irish cause, ,a.nd a majority who believe in letting countries on the other side of the water manage their own affairs without interference from us, o It is a source of uneasiness to many professional poli- t;qnans, who want to keep in the good graces of their Irish con- stituents, yet fear to alienate the support of those in the other camp, It kegps them wiggling and squirming in an attempt to sa%vsor}::ethl}r:gdand yet at; tihe same 'time say nothing, e have had one great division of principle i i We do not want another, Bl e, The Irish question cannot be amicably adj soon to suit our Uncle Samuel, RRIRL Bh oo — Y, VO CUTTING OUT THE WASTE If General Dawes, as head of the federal budget ,can inau- gl{rate a sys_tem'whereby the extravagant governmental waste wxll.be ellm}nated, he will have performed a great and signal service to his country. “Governmental waste” is a household ex: it pression from gge:n to gcetsn and fégn_x Canada to the gulf, It signifies a lack f organization, inefficiency, and a spiri ! i time ’}%eliminate the three,y it e Al < e burdens of taxation are heavy enough when even legi- }illl;r;latzh aetxpenses aredmetci w}'lithout adding the millions and mgil- 3 are squandered through lack j husinéss e gh lack of good judgment and eneral Dawes is by no means a new broom, but we wes are ::21:; of the opinion that he will nevertheless n;ake a clean The state of Mi ta fi ate o Innesota financially is sound.
