Rich, son cf a millionnaire was recent- ly given a life sentence for assaulting a girl com- panion. The moralists of the older generation will dubtless seek to indict modern youth and find in this incident proof for the oft asserted charge that the young people of today travelva much faster pace than the ycuth © past generation. The case C. Rich is not typical, howe Society needs to place a greater safeguard about the youth of today than was necessary a generation ago. Adolescence faces more excitement. There is the automobile, present day dancing and many tempt- ing dange cteristic of the age. The Chicago Tribune has sucinetly analized the case of the American youth in the following para- graphs: “He had a cede ined in him, not always an absolute deterrent on all his impuls but it kept hifW'in mainly decent ways. This Michigan case is not isolated, but is illustrative ‘of something which cannot be passed as unusual. It is extreme, but in- dicative of new conditions which have not been met with new resistance, “It is apparent that t of American youth has lost the old restraints agairist liquor. An improved discipline which recognizes the new factors is needed, Forcible repressions will hardly bring it. They pro- duce adolescent furtiveness or insurrection. Real discipline has a higher moral quality and it becomes part of the fiber, an essence of the being, offering - the resistance which is a part of habitual conduct. “Peremptory injunctions do not produce it. When it is acquired it is accepted by the possessor as an invaluable part of the character. There are new social bacteria. There must be a new moral im- munity.” Much Need of Common Ground In spite of the fact that the American farmer has mote real friends now in the halls of Congress than ever before, there is lacking common ground of opin- ion with reference to agriculture relief. This is an unfortunate situation. There are so many farm or- ganizations, that no one sfokesman is authorized to represent them ccllectively. This situation more than anything else seems to threaten the proper so- lution of farm relief, For instance the Farmers’ Union, one of the largest of farm associations, has failed to cooperate with the committee of 22; the National Council of Farmers’ Cooperative Marketing Association, they have not been friendly to the Dickinson plan of ag- ricultural relief. One expert on farm matters sug- gests the formation of some group to represent the majority of farmers so that some agreement can be reached as to legislative policies. This is sound ad- vice, however hard it is to bring about such a con- dition because of the multitudinous number of farm organizations. It would seem that the first logical step toward farm relief would be an agreement, among the interested parties, on a conservative pro- gram based upon economically sound laws, rather than on political expediency. It would be futile to analyze here the various farm relief bills now before Congress in view of the fact the interested parties are so far from anything that even approximates a common ground.

The Prince Carries an Umbrella (Dantille Register) ‘The prince of Wales is nothing if not obliging. He wants so much to maintain the Entente Cordiale and foster the spirit of Locarno that he immediately complied with the request cf a Paris newspaper ani made a move calculated to protect the clothes and health of French youth. We did nct know that the prince was such a fashion-setter in France, but it seems that he has only to appear at the Bath club in London “carrying a crook-handled umbrella fold- ed in an impeceable way” to cause all young French- men to carry crook-handled umbrellas which they have tried to fold in an impeccable way. But there seems to be a missing link here. If the prince always keeps his umbrella folded in an impeccable way, how are the clothes and the health of the young Frenchmen affected? Wouldn’t.it have been wise for the Paris newspaper to have asked him to walk down Pall Mall in a London drizzle with his umbrella up and open? It might have asked him, too, to put his rubbers on and wear a rain- coat. Then there would have been no doubt about safeguarding the health of the tender Frenchmen. For if the prince simly folds his umbrella in an im- peccable way and carries it about with him in a closed motor car, the death rate from influenza and pneumonia in France will be unchanged and the tailors will be kept as busy as ever. The prince is such a good ambassador he may think of this next time he goes out. Twenty-five Years of Steel (Philadelphia Public Ledger) For twenty-five years the name of Gary has been law breakers.” Surely the pendulum has swung |Judge Elbert H. Gary. about as far toward government regulation as is possible, and some reaction against the present ten- dency is only natural in the not far distant future.

It was steel litigation that took him out of a Chicago law office. The troubles of steel made him known to Morgan the Elder, to Gates, Carnegie, Schwab, Baker, Frick and Widener. Morgan influence made him the ranking officer of steel and helped him meet the first great crisis ef the new corporation. Sitting at the same desk where he sat in 1901, he has seen his corporation pay out $6,500,000,000 in wages, $1,800,000,000 in dividends and set a record of $23,000,000,000 in gross business for that time. more than 246,000 workers in 152 plants and with assets of $2,500,000,000. \ The road of Steel has not been smooth.
