You can trace the path of the hide, and the tallow, the horns and the hoots, and even down to the blood and the hair, step by step,until they are all turned out a finished by-product| ready for the market. And yet but few Americans ever think of visiting this marvel of the age. The stockyards are one of the many sights to be seen in this country. It would require years of travel to see and com- prehend them all. It seems to be the custom for many people who amass a competence to rush right over to some foreign country to “see the sights,” of which could be seen at home on the screen for a few cents, They see a few things over there, and miss a lot of things over here. Often they are embarrassed to find that some foreigner who has never been here has a better knowledge of this country than they have themselves, The fellow who rushes abroad without first knowing his own country reminds us of the poor fool who passed by a dull nugget of gold in order to pick up a scintillating piece of glass.|~ We have many of them. e ety PRUNE THE SHIPPING BOARD The pruning knife in the hand of General Charles G. Dawes has been working to a purpose, witl the result that many mil- lions of dollars will be saved the taxpayers through a reorgani-! zation of the departments in Washington and the elimination of; unnecessary appropriations, | In the past, one of the great ambitions of the bureaucrat has been to secure larger appropriations than were really nec-! essary. Legitimate needs were hardly considered, It was a case of get all you can and spend more than you get, trusting to! congress to make up the deficit. | All of this has been changed by Dawes, as director of the' budget, and wasteful officials are warned to trim their sails and| head in close to the wind if they desire to remain in close con-| tact with their jobs, | General Dawes has accomplished a wonderful piece of| constructive work, but what will it avail us if the government! is going to continue pouring billions into that loose-jointed mav-; erick known as the shipping board, which is on a par with our| recent airplane orgy of official waste and squandering? | Why not turn Dawes loose on the shipping board, with in- structions to prune to the limit? | Of course, the general might get into one of his famous| “Hell and Maria” moods and blow the thing up with a few tons' of dynamite, or tow it out into the Atlantic and sink it. | But in either case we are inclined to the belief that hel would earn a collective and vociferous “amen” from a hundred million Americans, ‘ Taxes are high as it is, without feeding them to an inani- mate gourmand. .
