One Anniversary We Should Remember Fond as we are of celebrating an- niversaries, we let the 17th anniver- sary of our entrance in the World war slip by, the other day, almost | without noticing it. ‘The seven men remaining in con- gress wh> voted against the declara- tion of war, on that April day in 1917, issued brief statements saying that| they felt more sure than ever that) they had done the right thing. | The newspapers printed brief stor-} ies recalling the circumstances sur-| Tounding our declaration of war./ Some of them recreated the long-lost atmosphere of that time by telling] what songs, movie stars and athletic heroes were in vogue then. But we let it go at that. No speeches, no parades, no flags. Here, is one anniversary, evidently, that we don’t care to celebrate. Seventeen years is quite a long) time—especially when they are years Bismarck Trib- ‘Une Company, Bismarck, N.

And the enormous Muscle Shoals project is directed by three men who draw $10,000 a year apiece. So what? Stock Manipulation Ferdinand Pecora, who has acted ably as counsel for the senate bank- ing committee, predicts that new leg- islation for control of the stock mar- ket will prohibit pool operations en- tirely and place exchanges under control of the federal trade commis- sion, This looks very much like a healthy elations made by the committee dur- ing the last year make it pretty ob- vious that some sort of regulation of little reason to expect that the ex- | changes themselves would handle the |job any better in the future than they have in the past.

The stock market would be health- lier if they ceased to be. Sign of Promise | If there is anything to the theory that increased wages will, by boost- ing consumer purchasing power, cre~ ate widespread business prosperity, we ought to be due for a pretty brisk revival in the immediate future. ‘Whatever else may be happening in the world of industry.these days, wages at least are going up. Such basic industries as steel and automo- biles have granted increases to hun- dreds of thousands of workers in the last few weeks, and other lines have followed suit. The result is almost certain to be a very substantial increase in the buying of consumers’ goods. Despite all that has been said, it is not yet entirely clear just how much increased consumer buying power can do to restore prosperity. If it can do as much as its advocates say it can, we ought to have some pretty pros- perous times ahead of us. like the last 17, full of disillusion- ment and perplexity. And if we feel} that the entire war was an unspeak-| ably tragic mistake, a thing which consumed lives and treasure to no Purpose, we only share an emotion which seems to possess all the coun-| tries that took part in the conflict.

What Size Reward for Big Jobs? If you were to do a statue of your, old friend Uncle Sam these days, you | would have to show him in the pose | of The Thinker. Uncle Sam has| Jearned a whole lot of things in the | Jast few months, and his big job right | now is to figure out what they mean and what he ought to do about them. One of the things he has got to make up his mind about is the size of the monetary reward which is per- missible for the private citizen in as) complex and closely integrated a so- clety as that of modern America. ‘The field of private enterprise re- ‘wards its leaders very well. The country is still a bit groggy from gaping at the discoveries the senate committee has made about bankers’ incomes. Enormous salaries, fat bo- muses, retaining fees from this and that outside corporation, chances to get a little rake-off on the side by prosperous business and having con- ducted himself in an exemplary way in all his relations. Grigwire is now in the custody of the Canadian authorities, being held pending extradition proceedings which may or may not be instituted by the United States government. In the meantime a petition asking President Roosevelt to pardon the escaped pris- loner has been signed by scores of rep- resentative men and women in the community in which Grigwire, or “Fahey” has lived a blameless life for years. Probably the appeal for clemency in this case will be approved by a large majority of those whose familiarity with the case is limited to the read- ing of the brief newspaper dispatches concerning it. Necessarily, the, de- partment of justice, the department of state and the president, if the case comes before him for decision, will go into the facts in detail, and the fact that the state department has asked and been granted a brief ex- tension of time before deciding wheth- er or not to make the customary de- mand for extradition indicates that careful consideration is being given to all phases of the situation. Legally the man is an escaped pris- oner who is subject to reincarceration, If there are facts which show that he did not commit the crime of which he was convicted it is incumbent on him to establish those facts, which, after this lapse of time, may easily be impossible. But 20 years of good citizenship ought to count for some- hi ing. Outright pardon by the president would clear the record and enable the fugitive to return to this country should he wish to do so at any time. If this course is not thought desir- able, it would still be possible for Grigwire to retain his freedom in Canada if the state department should tail to ask for his extradition. In that case, as he is charged with the com- mission of no crime in Canada, the Canadian authorities would have no grounds on which to hold him. Our earth not only turns on its axis sonable hope of repair. In the earlier days of the focal in- fection principle in practice (focal in- fection is no theory; it is @ well es- tablished principle) a good many vic- tims gave up their teeth as offerings to the great god Guess. Some doc- torswere so busy that they could take only time to give one quick look in the patient’s mouth and order him to go to the dentist and have all his teeth pulled. Forty or fifty years ago that was cher-Rayburn measure. But Wall Street couldn’t afford to be content with attacking the bill itself. It found little sympathy in and an Old Yankee Custom—it was cheaper and less trouble than having the teeth filled or repaired by the dentist—if there was a dentist cap- able of doing so. Probably it was not difficult to persuade people who were adults in the gay nineties to submit to such mutilation in the childish hope that it would cure their rheuma- tiz, sciatica or other complaints. They still felt that the spending of good money trying to save a few teeth was a bit extravagant, when beauti- ful sets could be had at bargain prices.
