Now the someone kicks over This the other Gay when the church people in- vited Viee President Marshall dress a meeting in the interest of the Interchurch World Movement. They got the address all right, but the vice president reversedgthe usual order. He pepper was done did not preach to the people, but as one of the people did preach to the chureh. Doubtless it was not what was expected, it may not have been enjoy. able, but it was instructive und whole- some. While it came out of the pulpit, it sounds more: like coming right off the bat. "He urged the church to clean house. To resume the functions belong: ing tolit, which it has turned over to the state—the enforcement of the moral law, for one thing. Among the broad- sides ithe vice president fired this is a sample} “Gentlemen may ‘Peace! Peace!’ but there will be no peace until the church resumes its functions, renews ita faith, ‘an@ proves its faith by its works, “It |18 lidle to legistate’ for ‘purity if the priest jabove his book is to leer at his ngighbor'’s wife. 4 “It ag vain! to enact laws punishing ory to ad-} smoke it.” ee ee WRERE DO THEY GET IT? The “Committee of Forty-Bight.” which i> launching the new political party on a platform that partakes jstronglf of both single tax and Social- ism, according to its announcement “represents” the great mass of thé American people. : 1 We, who sit in the bleachers, or stand along the sidelines when games of this sort are going on, wonder’where these committeemen get their cofmmisstons to represent the great masses of the Ameti- can Ddeople, or t6 represent anybody, for that matter, other than themselves. Will they please inform the public as to Who chose them representatives of public sentiment? What léud outery they heard, among any particular sec- tion of the people that others failed to catch, that was so insisten§as to in- duce them to provide a brand new asy- jlum for the down-trodden? Ordinafy political parties have their machinery for the election of represen- tatives; they have primaries and con- ventions of the people at which such representatives are chosen. But the “Committee of Forty-eight,” like many other organizations profess- ing © represent the great body of the people, is a self-constituted and self- des- ignated affair. It may, with perfect pro- priety aim to represent ‘certain theories, fads of fancies in politics, but it has ho watrant for its bold assertion that it represents more’ than @n imagin- ary constituency. But there is, of course, distinguished precedent for de- riving one’s authority to represent the people without their consent, from voices im the air and other sources no more tangible. But why not let a few people, at least, n on some of these movements to re- present and emancipate them? Why not, in these important and pressing matters, show a little of that “self-determination of peoples,” so widely advertised and so little practiced by certain folks who delude themselves with the idea that they are divinely or- dained and thefefore entitled to strut up and down the earth as vox populi. Any oS SS WHAT WE RECEIVED. When all of-the; scandal connected With the present Democratic national administration, that occurred! during the war, has been brought to ‘public view, may be the mass will be so enor- mous as to shock the American people into a realizing sense of what has been done to them by the outfit that “kept murder} if} the/ elders are to got workifg litte children to death, “It Hs waeleds to forbid _ladéeny the deacons make large. church eontriby-| tions out of excess profits wrung jointly from labor and the ultimate consumer. “The church, with a complacent has turned over to the state the ment of the moral law, and®the state has failed, as it always will, to enforce it, while the man on the street sneers at the church. © Zion, and if you really believe in the communion of the saints, prove it by consistent conduct.

When the church takes back the disciplining of the moral and religious Ife of its members, when it trains up,its children with fixea when it proves its faith the communion of the saints by its works, its courts will be thronged with worshipers and there will be no need for patchwork legislation to recon- struct the omissions of the church. , “This, O God, make the supreme de- sire and the one motive of all those en- gaged in this great movement.

The huge of $1,051,000,000 was spent in this department alone. We should haye had something for it. We should haye got some sort of result that somebody could have pointed out to show that at least an effort had been made. But when the fact is established that not a single American-built battle plane ever ap- peared af the front, it is not only a criminal waste of money, but it is a disgrace to the nation that produces more geniuses than any two of the others. Then when a presidential commis- sion upon its findings recommends the court-martialing of the men responsible, and the recommendation is indorsed by the head of the department of justice, the secretary of war dismisses the whole case as unwarranted by the facts, what is your view of the Demo- cratic administration's notion of faith: fulness in the management of the peo- ple’s business? ‘This instance is but one of numerous similar ones a8 shown in the reports of investigations revealing the most shock- ing examples of reckless and criminal waste. During the brief time we-were in war we spent millions to borrow billions in order to distribute the borrowed money among our people on a scale never be- fore so lavish. Prices were at once boosted by the cost-plus contract, until today ry item costs at least three times what it cost prior to the war, This w the sop to the profiteer. Be- fore the war it cost about $1,000,000,008 to run the government, next year, two years after the war is over, it will cost at least five times the cost before. the war. We must continue to bring to light this riot of Democratic business methods, not merely to discredit Demo- cratic policy, but first to inform the public how their money pald in taxes was expended, secondly, to lay the four dation to prosecute the criminally gull: ty parties who used, the war for thelr own advantage, thirdly, to recover from those who defrauded the government, and lastly, to martial the facts neces~ sary to enable us to force discontin- uance of numerous war agencies, called into existence by a theorist, which still persist. ‘axation was never so serious a prob- jem as this today. The unscientific and uneconomic excess profits tax still per- sists, and the high cost leyel is mot re- lieved, and cannot be reliéved util we reduce the outtageous high cost of gov- ernment. 5 4 Congress is doing mighty well in cut- ting the administration's estimates for Now let there be a gen- agencies und appropriations. ce of V eral discontinud their wasteful cost. importing 500,000,000 barrels of of! year ly at $2 a barre very low figure and! that means an annual payment of $1, rae Hard work may ha killed sonie- body some time or other, but were you A FREE GARDEN BOOK.

At the same time the board secured from railroad companies an agreement not to accept for shipment hides which bore no certif- icate of inspection, According to Mr. Boyce, it is possible that a special inspector will be appoint- ed by the state office to check up‘on such shipments and, work with the county officers, j Without commenting on the status of the livesock INdusry in the state at the present time, Mr. Boyce believes that the time limit for the return of cattle and sheep shipped out) under Special dispensation last fall should be extended to July 31 instead of June 3 as now proposed.

Many of them were truthful. Some were not. But there was confusion and lack of uniformity. An intelligent compari- son was impossible.

Today the Bureau’s system of keeping records is almost universal among the better publishers. Uniform reports are furnished to advertisers verified by that absolutely independent or- ganization.
