Reform Again Gets Black Eye The biggest job in Ohio, today, is that of city manager of Cleveland. It is a bigger job than the governorship, for it implies administrative burdens calling for the most intelligent functioning, and it also démands courage to withstand the pestilential influence of as dirty a local political machine as there is in the country, next to Chicago, at least. The attention of the entire nation has recently beea | focussed on this job and this city by the ousting of the Cleveland city manager and the installation of another. As the former holder of the position was ousted for de- fiance of the Cleveland machine boss, a bohunk named Maschke, it is to be assumed that in selecting his suc- of North Dako.a, Der year Member Audit Bare: Member of The Associated Press (Official City, State and County Newspaper) Foreign Representatives SMALL, SPENCER & LEVINGS Wicainly ce tos PAGO Co. cessor, Boss Maschke expected to be getting somebody CHICAGO NEW YORK BOSTON who could be pliant to the demands of the organization he controls, Ten Years of ‘Prohibition’ ‘At any rate the story from Cleveland is that the man- A Modern ‘Eliza’ Crossing the Ice! de - the most part and, despite the fact that it finds its source » it is part of the law of the land. 4 Provinces. ps omg “Prohibition” in quotations is not a cynicism. ager, William R. Hopkins, was removed for failing to Pass out offices and graft where they would find lodge- ment among friends of the city boss, This reveals a horrible delusion—that government of cities by managers means the excision of political corrup- tion. The Cleveland example proves that politics can be just as corruptly powerful under this experimental form of municipal government as under the old form of rep- resentative rule by mayors and city councils. Forms can not take the place of high-grade citizenship and leaders. There is nothing that can make the government of the general run of large American cities saintly as long as the mass of the people is not spiritually and idealistically leavened. Lincoln Steffens said of Philadelphia, 20 or more years ago, that it was “corrupt and contented.” That wasn't exactly as bad as he made. it appear, but the term is perfectly applicable in the ordinary sense to the case of Cleveland. Of course, there is a joker in the Cleveland situation, and that is that the city managerial system continues the councilmanic appendix. Without the leverage of that complaisant body, the Cleverand boss could not have re- moved the manager who was trying to be honest and efficient. When orders were brought in to the session by @ messenger from the boss, the resolution of removal at once was passed. No explanations accompanied the order, no charges were outlined. It was a silent drama and nobody squawked. ‘This year marks the tenth birthday and the first decade | ‘of the “noble experiment.” There have not been ten years of prohibition, merely the first epoch of an attempt to apply the theory to a nation composed of many peo- Ples and of many tastes. ‘The Volstead act is the butt of many a joke; the law 4s denounced, broken without qualms of ccnscience for in constitutional enactment, the dry laws of the nation re still its burning social and political issues. But there have been many good results from the enact- ment of the Volstead act and this newspaper holds no brief for that legislation either but firmly believes it should be strictly and courageously enforced as long as But what is there on the credit side of the prohibi- tion ledger? Thousands of saloons, hellholes of corruption dis- ‘wppeared probably never to return, even if the modifica- ‘tionists are successful in bringing about government con- trol of liquor such as exists in some of the Canadian ‘That is one good mark in favor of dry legislation. Again, some portions of the nation report an increase in savings accounts, a betterment in standards of liv- ing and a decrease actually in liquor consumed probably to the physical improvement of the American people. On the other side, of course, the chief debit is dif- ficulty of enforcement. Liquor can be smuggled into the country easily and he who has the price can usuaily get a good brand with reasonable safety from punish- ment, physically or otherwise. Another black mark against prohibition is the fact that many homes have become miniature breweries and dis- tilleries. Under the proper assumption that every man’s home is his castle, home-brewing goes merrily on. Many persons straight-laced in the wet days now speak coyly of the best kind of a still, how to crown the long necked bottles and the brand of hops which give the greatest “kick” to the greatest number. Aside from the social discussion as to the relative merits of this or that bootlegger, social conversation often drifts t the best recipe for brewing within the home the best kind and most effective alcoholic drink. The Volstead act, too, has opened up a new avenue for Mrs, Lindbrgh’s skill as an aviatrix is more than a Publicity flourish.

It has been rumored that some | Vacation. bootieggers carry great sums of money laced to their Velts to secure an easy entry of their goods into this x . country. Be that as it may, there is sufficient in the Editoria] Comment record to prove that the Volstead act has led to bribery and corruption in high places, ‘This is due largely to the fact that so many people are opposed to the law and refuse to be impressed with the argument, that if any law is to be respected, all laws must be respected. This principle is axiomatic unless popular government eventually is to be undermined. White ribboners have been disappointed also in their Prophecies that the younger generation unused to the open saloon would form a citizenship whose lips had never touched liquor. At a recent meeting of the Anti- Saloon league it was admitted that millions of boys and girls at unheard of ages before prohibition had acquired @rinking habits. Medical clinics of the great cities if they could, might verify the percentages of juvenile @rinking offered from time to time by wet advocates. Students of government know that legal fiat can reform Mo one and whether drinking by the youth of the land is greater now then before the Volstead act is open to @zgument and also hard of proof. Chairman Wickersham, of the president's law enforce- ment commission, hit the nail on the head when he said that as long as there is an Eighteenth amendment, every attempt must be made to make it “more enforceable.” Every fair-minded man will agree with that conclusion. Nothing clse will remove as effectively the evils that be- set the opcration of that amendment than rigid enforce- ment. Streets of Rubber (Newark Star-Eagle) There have been many experiments in the use of rub- ber blocks for roads and pavements, according to infor- mation assembled by the department of commerce, and experimentation has advanced to a stage where success- ful use of this material would be possible if it were not for th> fact that ¢rude rubber's price is too high to make its uttlization economically ical. If Thomas A. Edison succeeds in developing a to produce rubber from goldenrod or some other domes- tic plant the price of rubber will be reduced and then undoubtedly its use for pavements will be rapidly de- veloped. What this would mean in reducing noises, les- sening shocks to vehicles and in general adding to the comfort and well-being of users cf streets and highways is beyond calculation. Snow and ice do not readily ad- here to rubber, it is dustless and easily cleaned and is not effected by sun, rain or frost. Experimentation with rubber roadways in Europe is said by the department of commerce to have shown that rubber roeds ate more econcmical than cther roads—particularly for their last- ing qualities. A rubber road in the courtyard of the St. Pancras railroad station in London has been down since 1870 and is still in good condition. It is said to have only worn three-sixteenths of an inch in sixty years. It is many’ ways already is most suitable for paving purposes when it is molded into bricks and laid like creosoted wooden blocks. The noise problems which are so serious in American harmful effects upon the nervous system are better un- derstood, may be conquered to a great extent when and if Edison: succeeds in producing rubber or a rubber sub- stitute at low cost. Children and Movies (Grand Forks Herald) “Should children attend the movies?” “Hi-jumping” has been added to “hi-jacking” in Hollywood circles. The term applies to the sheik who jumps the taxi-fare when the cab makes a boulevard stop. So they are locking them in now in the best regulated taxis of Los Angeles. Liven Up the Dough Some newspapers hail a split in the Nonpartisan League ranks because Townley may try conclusions with Sinclair. Of course a Sinclair in the house of representa- tives is much to be preferred over a Townley. Be that as it may, however, the political factions within the Re- publican party in North Dakota have pretty much the Same program and principles. It is very easy for a mild Nonpartisan to become a rabid I. V. A, and equally es easy for a rabid I. V. A. to become a mild N.

Yes, he was feeling better—much better. He would stay through the day at the office and reach home about five o'clock. Judith was so concerned over ner husband’s welfare that for some time she failed to notice Tony. And Tony was taking particular pains that day to be noticed. She came downstairs about 11:30 o'clock, looking glum and occasion- ally shooting glaring glances in Ju- dith’s direction. Judith wandered about the house, busy with a dozen morning tasks. At 12 o'clock Mrs. Wheeler found her upstairs in her own room. The housekeeper apparently was labor- {ng under some mental ordeal. She knocked at the bedroom door. “Come in,” called Judith, and when she saw who was waiting added, “Why, Mrs, Wheeler, what's the matter?” “It's Miss Tony—" she panted. “Shes ordered three different breakfasts, ma‘am, and sent eve: one back!
