There is undue alarm on the part of many that what is known as the “Lord’s Day Alliance,” seeks to lead us back to the old blue law period of Colonial days when there were so many “‘don’ts” for the guid- ance of citizens that in fear of the ducking stool, stocks and whipping post, the average person only felt safe to stick close to home on Sunday and sur- round himself with as much gloom as possible. A whole Jot of people who possibly could stand con- siderable reform in the manner in which they ob- served the Sabbath, let out the londest howl, and be- gan to reach out for sympathy and support in com- bating what they convinced themselves was nothing short of a holy horror. They were simply fleeing when no one was pursuing. The best acknowledg- ment in the world that they themselves felt that they were not living up to any approved form of remem- bering the Sabbath. When you come to look into what the Alliance real- ly wants from their own statement of their. ambi- tions, it is not nearly as;bad as our alarmist friends have imagined. Thesalliance: has three points«whichwit emphasises. The alliance says it-does not seek to. impose, a Puri- tan, Sectarian or any narrow program as a Sunday observance. It recognizes that there are sincere dit- ferences of opinion in respect»to the details,of this) matter, It does, however, hold this to be fund: mental, that one day of each week should be free from labor and business, and the people free, if they so choose, to devote the day to rest, religious educa- tion, worship and deeds of charity. The alliance believes that the Sabbath was ordain- ed by moral law, which is of universal and perpetual obligation and older than any and all existing govern- ment. That the American Christian Sabbath is a civil as well as a religious institution. This is sus- tained by article 1, section 7, paragraph 2 of the fed- eral constitution, which recognizes Sunday as a day of rest for the president and impliedly for all of the people. This view is sustained by the supreme court in the case of Holy Trinity church against the United States when the court said “This is a Christian na- tion” and by the statement of no less a person than Daniel Webster, approved by the same court “Chris- tianity is the common law of the land.” The alliance holds that the fourth commandment is still in force and effect. It believes that the Sabbath was given, not merely for one nation but for all peo- ple and that. the world needs it today more than ever, both as a day of rest from excessive activity and as a day for religious inspiration in an age of worldli- ness and doubt. It-holds also that Christ did not abql- ish the fourth commandment, as some have held, but rather, in freeing the Sabbath from narrow and tech- nical interpretations He strengthened and spiritual- ized the holy day. There is nothing in the alliance’s efforts to secure @ more genuine respect and general observance of the Sabbath to scare anyone and so far as they go they are right. It is all needed and the people would be the gainer in the adoption of the view the alliance takes.of the present situation, PEIN L173 GROPING TO REGAIN BALANCE. “If half the clothing manufacturers overnight should go into the manufacture of shoes,” remarks the Kansas City Star, “there would be too many shoes made and not enough clothing. Shoe factories would have to close, and their operatives, out of work, would not be able to buy the clothing manufactured. The industrial machine would be out of balance, and there would be a depression in business. “In the activity of the war and of the boom that fol- lowed, something of this sort happened in industry generally. European buying slackened. ‘The value of farm products shrank. The farmer, cripped, could not continue his purchase of manufactured articles on the old scale. Prices got out of line. Some were so high that the goods were not sold. Others were so low that there was no profit in them. So trade slowed down. “We are now groping about trying to find the right relative prices for goods and labor—the prices at which the best results will be obtained, moving the goods, keeping men employed, and producing fa profits for the busine “The process of getting things back into balance in a society based on voluntary co-operation like ours is slow and painful. People don’t enjoy taking the losses involved. Those that are engaged in making the high priced goods think possibly they can main- tain those prices, although so long as they do so they help to keep industry out of balance. Eventually they yield to the inevitable and the adjustments are made. “Some persons think it would be fine to have the state take charge of everything. They believe it could adjust supply and demand much better than free in- dividuals are doing it today. Possibly. But Russia will add anything as a curative in her case. She was sinned against more than sinning. Dazzled at a tend- er age by the luxury wealth provided, she paid ten|] years of her life in loyalty and accepted the ostra- cism of society, but, the day came when she craved association with other «girls, with good girls and it was impossible because she had defied the conven- tions. She finally rebelled’ at the brutal treatment and the impossible relations ended in tragedy as is usual. There is nothing original-in the whole common sit- vation except original sin, a REEL EES aE Uncle Joe Cannon is oh visiting terms at the White House again. He was down to call on President Har- ding the other day, the first time che has been near the maasion in eight years. He could have no pos- sible business there under a Democratic regime, un- compromising Republican that he is, and not being overly fond of Mr. Wilson either, it worked no hard- ship on him. EEE 8 EEE EG CRIME. AGAINST THE PEOPLE. Speaking of the illness of former President Wilson thi the New York Times, one of his staunchest support- ers, says: ‘‘The truth concerning it is now expected to be divulged. Mr. Wilson was unconscious for a pe- riod which has not been definitely disclosed, the more general understanding being that it lasted for a week; ,but a statement advanced by persons claiming to know ‘is that it covered much more time than that.* To which the National Republican adds: “Cynical disregard not only for tradition, pre- cedent and historic national policies was accompan- ied, under the late administration, by similar defiance of the constitutional and statute law the chief ex- ecutive and his associates were sworn to uphold. The national Constitution provides that in case of the death of the president, or his inability to perform his duties, he shall be succeeded by the vice president. For long periods President Wilson was oither physical- ly or mentally incapable of performing his duties. There is some question as to when the partial irre- sponsibility of President Wilson began,—some claim- ing that it dates from a period prior to his first de- parture for Europe. The public was deliberately de- ceived as to his real condition, and his duties were performed by irresponsible agents, by ‘whom the president was sécluded in their own keeping. Thie ‘was a crime against the American Constitution and the American people, “Some legal mieans of vacating the presidential of- fice independent’ of the willingness “of the executive to retire when disability arises, should be provided. That the fate of this nation-should for even a mo- ment be in the hands’ of a n either physically or mentally disabled is’ a possibility that should not be permitted to longer exist.” ESS ERED ct RELY eee Three young ladies charged with “improper attitud- inizing” in a dance performed by them at an enter- tainment for law students, brought their costumes into court and gave an exhibition for'the benefit of the court, attachies, press and censors of morals. The result was vindication’ of “L’Art Nouveau’? and dis- missal of the charge.

There is no ube in distorting the facts of history in oder to say pretty things about Mr. Wilson, and Mr. Hapgood must not stub his toe any more against any- thing so firm as history and expect to escape with- out hurt. ——_—o—_____ The Department of Commerce, while headed by a Democrat, issued a report covering the year 1920,) showing, among other things, that during that year the United States imported 35,000,000 bushels of wheat as compared with 8,000,000 bushels in 1919, Yet the tariff commission, also headed by a Demo- erat, intimated that the increased importations had nothing to do with the drop in price of wheat, which has brought ruin to so many farmers. ee ES National Commander Galbraith of the American Legion, announces that a concerted movement will shortly be started by the Legion posts throughout the country to get the slacker Bergdoll back from Ger- many where he has taken refuge. “He is the one boche we want,” says the commander.
