The Legion asked development of the merchant marine, the air forces, adequate preparations for national defense, complete | rehabilitation and hospitalizing for disabled veterans and tightening of, certain restriction on immigration. ‘ With the memory of the World War not yet dimmed, the Legion does well to speak with-force in behalf of sane | } preparations for the national defense. Until the day comes * when limitation agreements such as that of the Washing- ton conference called by the late President Harding affect-all branches of military service, it is plain that the United States ; must be prepared to speak to a troubled world with the au- thority conferred by power to enforce just demands. ‘ In spite of the effort to break down the immigration limitation policy now pursued by the country and although * 4 -there are ills attending such a policy, the wide-spread illit- eracy, lack of respect for law and failing appreciation of the fundamentals of American government argue strongly for the continuance of a policy which will insure to America the | benefit of the best immigration possible to aid in the build- | ing of the nation. i : The Legion did not mention any organizations. It did say, verly. plainly, that “we consider any individual, group + of individuals or organization which creates or fosters racial, religious or class strife among our people or which takes into their own hands the enforcement of law, deter- + mination of guilt or infliction of punishment to be unAther- i ican, a menace to our liberties and destructive of our funda- =-smgental law.” To those who question the resolution the Legion may answer that if the shoe fits, wear it. No great organiaztion wan~condene any force, whatever its name or purpose may he, which imperils the foundation of the government. \ | * WHAT YOU LIKE ; A New York clerk is sent to the penitentiary for th “fourth time and for the same old offense—stealing diction- aries. His fourth attempt to increase his vocabulary took =place in a department store where he saw the king-pin of ‘= dictionaries—$13.50, which, being a clerk of modest means, *“he couldn’t afford. You will read a good many days before you find anything ranger than this in the news. Three times he had stolen dictionaries and gone to prison for it. You’d think he had learned his lesson. Not so. Back, he came a fourth time. é Here you see the workings of a curious brain kink -or fie abnormality that is also characteristic of the chronic crim-| j inal.

The reporter de- | *stribes him as having a “scholarly brow.” . Too bad some man didn’t catch him early in. the game and “cure” him by giving him all new dictionaries. as fast as they came from the presses. Difficult to understand him and his peculiar craving? . Well, after all, isn’t it just as sane as some of the cravings =the rest of us have?

HAZLEWOOD , President Association of Reserve City Bankers - Concelved in the spirit of com- mon: good, for the best interésts of government, banks and _ public alike, based on broad and correct principles relat- ing to the na- tion’s currency and credit, the Federal Reserve System repre- sents the greatest piece of economic: legislation enact- ed by an Ameri- can Congress. The System's record of achieve- ment through a world war, an in- flation period of dizzy heights, and months of serious and costly liqui- dation. It is a matter of greatest importance that very earnest and patriotic thought be given to the two questions: How far has the system succeeded, and in what par- ticular has it failed, to give our country as strong and as useful a financial system as human mind can devise? The hope and expectatign of those who framed the Federal Re- serve Act that the machinery set- up for the origination, distribution and automatic retirement of cur- rency issue, which should be en- tirely responsive to the needs of trade and the varying conditions of business, have been wonderfully well realized. Every possible ef- fort must be exerted to preserve the Federal Reserve System from political alliance and to keep its powerful influence entirely devoted to the building up of the greatest’ banking system in the world. The first bank of the United States was established in 1791 an® failed to obtain a renewal of its charter in 1811,‘ the opponents charging that the bank was a “money trust” controlled by for- eigners,’4 tool in the hands of the Federalists,.and that the act char- tering the bank was unconstitu- tional. Note the use of the words “money tryst.” We have the idea that this-is a modern term. The suspicions which animate the demagogue tdday have not chang- ed in a century. The second bank of the United ‘States was chartered in 1816 and failed to obtain a renewal of its charter in 1831, the reasons being a widespread belief’ that the bank was unconstitutional, the hostility. of the states, the opposition of the state banks, the rise of democracy,, ‘and the envy and hatred which the poor always feel toward the ‘rich, Both banks functioned. well and accomplished ‘uch for. the coun try ~ during ‘ crucial-times.

MAKING CAPITALISTS OUT OF WORKMEN Festus J. Wade Says Anarchy Disappears With the De- velopment of Thrift. » fs When the. savings pass-book comes into a man’s life to stay tha red flag goes out. What the coun- try needs is to bring about a com dition whereby the man who works with his hands shall take the same interest in his affairs as the caph talist. does in his. Probably tha best way to do this would be to turn the workman into a capitalist, And this is exactly what he be comes when he saves his money and builds up a reserve fund. Ha remains a capitalist as long ag he holds on to that money. ‘The satis: faction of seeing his money reserva motnt up wiil discourage the wast er to take a layoff now and then, It will encoutage him to work.a full six-day week and thereby increase the labor hours applied to produo tion. The American people can solve any problem they set themselves to. We provided for a ‘sound cur rency yen the greenbackers and inflationists were routed and the gold basis establt . The Fed- eral Reserve Bank was established and solved a problem for which most people thought there’ was ng solution, A number of years ago, when there was a crisis or when a bank failed, we all used to shut up our vaults tight and let nothing get out, Instead of bettering con. ditions we made them worse. No: {f failures occur few people, except those directly interested, are dis turbed. Perhaps the. most important problem of all right now is to do away with labor waste. It_never can bé done: by preaching,’ by agi- tation or by force. It can be done by selling the workman on the idea of becoming a capitalist. This can be brought about by the right kind of bank advertising. Who fe there to say that an advertising dollar bringing about this result wauid not-be 4 constructive dollar? —Festus J.
