NEW YORK D or Kresge Bidg (Official City, State and County Newspaper) VICE PRESIDENT DAWES A Striking feature of the outgoing national adminis- tration is the esteem which Vice President Charles G. Dawes will take away with him when he returns to Chi- cago to resume his banking career. Four years ago he startled, stirred and angered senatorial Washington by blurting out an attack on senate practices, especially fili- bustering, as he was inaugurated vice president before the upper chamber of congress. He was denounced as a fool and a clown and his onslaught on the senate was described as a diatribe both intemperate and unwar- ranted. There were some wir@ saw in the Dawes blast the first step in aspirations to realize the presidency when the time to nominate again came around in 1928. He had ridden a high crest of publicity for some years prior to ‘the 1924 Republican convention and had even then been considered among the minor possibilities for the nation’s | highest office. His work on the budget, his famous and colloquial “Hell '‘n Maria” sneer, his part in the formula- tion of the reparations plan which took his name as its title, his mental snap and his picturesque ways all were calculated to make considerable of a public hero of the Chicagoan. But destiny, it seemed, had not cast him for the presidency, at least he will fade out of the Wash- ington scene without having made the grade to the White house. One reason possibly for being passed by was the failure of a necessity for a dark horse to develop at the Kansas City convention. Now that he is retiring, the senators who denounced him four years ago as a fool are placing quite another appraisal on his personality and mental capacities. Take Senator George, the Georgia Democrat, for in- stance. Four years.ago he said “the vice president de- feated any change“in senate rules by the brutal and clownish way he went about it.” He has learned to say now of Dawes that he “made more lasting friends in the senate than any other vice president in recent times. His Tobustness as a man and absolute candor made him re- vered and loved bythe whole senate.” Four years ago Senator Ashurst, Democrat, Arizona, described the Dawes attack on the senate rules as the “most acrobatic, gymnastic speech I ever heard delivered from that particular rostrum.” Now he says “General Dawes is one of the most capable presiding officers who | | ever wielded the senate gavel; he was courageous, abso- lutely fair and he protected the rights of every senator. To know him intimately brings an increase of respect for his manly qualities and his real virtues.” Senator Caraway, Democrat, Arkansas, calls attention to the fact Dawes is the only vice president to leave office without a reversal on a single ruling. Four years ago Caraway said Dawes was lacking as much in knowledge of senate rules as he was short on good taste. One thinks of Tom Marshall as his former critics say these nice things of Charley Dawes. Only Marshall was Popular from the beginning of his vice presidential serv- ice. The encomiums showered on Dawes, therefore, are all the more amazing. They must bring an extra twinkle to his eyes and the wraith of a smile to the lips between which he anchors his: famous inverted Pipe. Dawes at 64 will go back to the field of endeavor in which he grew wealthy before his entry into public life at Washington. He will become chairman of the board of directors of ‘he combined $160,000,000 Central Trust company and Bank of America, of Chicago. CHARTING OUR COURSE It must be that this nation of ours is growing up. We ‘The last few years have seen a great number of books, moving barge of the Erie and Ohio canals, the coming ‘of the machine age to the children of the pioneers; all of subjects, and others like them, have been made No American can really under- country without soaking in them. Yet the Euye that all the “picturesque” or “romantic™ episodes of our | country’s history were parts of one great movement; a! movement that took a huge wilderness and tried to turn it into a homeland where there could be more freedom, better times and a richer life for every man than ever before in history. That movement is unfinished. It is our job to carry it on toward completion. Our re-awakened interest in the old days is @ good sign. It signifies that we are begin- ning to see more clearly just where we are bound. CHANGING APPETITES Years ago the principal source of income for the sheep herdsman in this country was wool. That ~~) before Americans had acquired or cultivated a taste for mutton and lamb. Several decades ago sheep raising to supply the wool market was one of the most extensive branches of agri- culture even in such eastern states as New York, Pennsyl- vania and Ohio. But the post-war slump in wool so depressed the industry that whole herds of sheep oad slaughtered and their pastures turned over to dairy cat- tle or placed under cultivation where sufficiently fertile. Seeing greater stability ahead in the sheep industry. the department of agriculture at Washington predicts | increasing, prosperity for the sheep raisers. This Ae view is inspired chiefly by growing demand for lamb and mutton on the American dinner table. | Though roast lamb and lamb and mutton chops are | more to the American taste than formerly, they are not ‘so generally in demand here as in England, or, for that matter, in Canada. They are as frequently on the Brit- | ish menu as pork is on the American. This difference in carnivorous appetites is due, in part, to the fact that American sheep are raised for their wool first and their meat afterward, while in England certain ovine species are raised for their meat alone. And then the British epicure wants his mutton a relatively short Period on the hoof and a relatively long time in the re- frigerator. As a result he gets his lamb roast and mutton chops more palatable and tender than they are served in America. If the American sheep raiser, with the aid of the de- partment of agriculture, can produce a better mutton chop a use will have been found for millions of acres of land fit for grasing and nothing else. THE TOO-BUSY CORNER Retail merchants used to scramble to pay high rental or purchase prices for locations on or near “the busiest corner in town.” Now, however, the tide has turned, according to an article in the current issue of The American Druggist. This article says that druggists are finding that such locations are less desirable than locations in less busy districts. At the “busiest corner” the motorist cannot find a place to park while he shops, and the stream of traffic discourages pedestrians from patronizing the store. {So the druggists are looking to strategic corners in out- lying districts, where patrons can have room to come and go without being crushed in congested traffic. The article, of course, applies only to drug stores; yet in the steady spread of “neighborhood stores” there is evidence that other merchants also, are learning the same lesson. THE OLD CLOTHES TRADE The post-war depression in Europe has had some curious and unexpected little by-products. For instance, it has made Brooklyn, instead of London, the old clothes center of the world. This odd shift is explained by M. F. Christensen, an official at the Bush Terminal, Brooklyn. Each year millions of dollars worth of old clothes are shipped to such regions as Africa, Siberia, Constantinople, India and the eastern archipelago, to be bought and proudly worn by the natives in those places. Formerly the bulk of this trade came from London. But since the war Europe has not had so many old clothes. People are wearing what they have until it is no longer wearable. So Brooklyn took up the burden. Old clothes from all over the United States flow to Brooklyn—and go around the world to begin a second THE BISMARCK 'TRIKUNE | thing for which a museum or antique Che {dealer would just sell his soul if he tcould lay hands upon them. se A Y ' NEED FOR SUPERIORITY It never occurs to them to have) those supposed peerless objects ap-| | Praised or any opinion given them by (an expert; a half fear, perhaps, that jthey may be wrong. and they don’t Sir Joseph Duveen, famous art ex-' want to know that their solid gold is | pert, who recently defended himself; but gilt.

Throughout all their history, the two nations have held differing views on this subject. Once—during the Amer- ican Civil war—they reversed themselves, the English adopting the traditional American attitude and the Americans taking the time-honored British attitude. But always they have looked at the thing from opposing viewpoints. ‘There ‘s a good deal to be said for the senator's sug- gestion that if this question can be disposed of by dip- lomatic agreement we have small need of any more cruisers, while if it cannot we shall need many more than a mere 15. The thing is worth looking into, at any rate.
