Our people sympathized with cessful effort at the peace conference to semi-independent international status.

Their influence is working for co-operation between the two great Anglo-Saxon states. “The alliance between Great Britain and Japan is one of expediency only. It worked to Britain's ad- vantage when Germany and Russia were still powers against not against us. Many British publicists think the time has come to abandon it. It is a bar, as the domin- ions see plainly, to a firmer understanding with this country. Mr. Rowell, former president of the Privy Council of Canada, put the case of the opponents of the present alliance when he said the other day: ‘I submit for the consideration of the gov- ernment the question whether it would not e found, after careful investigation, that it is in the interests 3.90| of good relations between the British Empire and the Three Months — cnet No subscription by mail accepted for less the.2 months.

No one can read his printed words without feeling that he is profoundly in earn- period than United States on the one hand, and between Japan and the United States on the other. in the interests of good relations all around, that the treaty should not be renewed.’ ” WERE EEE OER After the government gets through with publication of its slacker list will it kindly hand us a list of the profiteers, who are about as unpopular as the evaders. OHIO ENGLISH. Scholarly and super-sensitive critics complain of Mr. Harding’s English. They point out trivial errors in grammatical construction. These professors arc, of course, unaware that down in Ohio they make their own English construction, likewise their own pronun- ciation. We may say for the former it is, as a usual thing, plain and vigorous. It is not built for con- sumption by college professors, but for the regular folks, who have no difficulty, whatever, in compre- hending the meaning intended. It is rather,suspected that the real basis of criticism is lack of sympathy with the ideas and policies for which the president stands. Mr. Harding is not engaged in issuing a series of essays in which the subject is lost in’ a wealth of rhetorical ruffles. He is presenting ideas fresh from the plain people, that have to do with everyday life, and who use everyday Ohio English which is every- where written into the laws and history of the country. This English was brought out from Connectieut in est. The pledge of the party in power is to be re- deemed ‘to the last degree and with all promptness.’ “While he was speaking the conference committee of senate and house were agreeing upon a report which settled all disputes between the two chambers ever the budget bill. He had been laying much stress upon a budget system—telling how vitally necessary it was. Within a few days the long-discussed measure will be in his hands for signature, and in this connec- tion it is interesting to note that the budget bure: will be placed in the treasury department and tha* a direcor and assistant director will be named by the president wholly on his own responsibility and not subject to confirmation by the senate. “But the budget is only one step in the effort to keep down appropriations and expenditures. A vast system of bureaus which sometimes overlap and inter- fere with each other has been the weedy crop of y of growth. Early in his administration President Taft made a praiseworthy attempt to cure the expensive evil. An elaborate survey was made, but never printed. It is available for consultation, as Mr. Hard- ing says. But more than that, 4 joint commission on reorganization of the administrative branch of the government is hard at work, and on this commission Harding has a personal representative. The president has faith that the result of the investigation will prove of exceeding value. He is aware that much courage on his part will be required to put in force a reorgan- ization that will eliminate every office that is not fully justified. He believes that he has the courage, although he realizes that he will have to fight deter- minedly the politicians who have been accustomed to stuff the departments full of their followers. Indeed, there must be a cleaning out of all useless timber there must be co-ordination, there must be a cutting of red tape and the installation of a genuine business establishment. And the president intends that this shall be brought about. “There is one more thing. ‘Everywhere we turn,’ he says, ‘we note that government has in recent time assumed a more complete relationship to the public than it ever sustained heretofore.’ Harding is no So- cialist. He is opposed to government domination over business. Much was done during the war that had to de done, but ‘in this process the burdens of the gov- ernment were immensely increased, and it is for us now to find means of lightening those burdens.’ “What the president is telling us is that we must place the government on an efficient hasis, reduce ex- penditures, get rid of paternalism and restore normal conditions, or as nearly normal as possible.” ai SRM 2S a A ad BEARS BAD CHARACTER. Time was when Germany’s bond, even her word was accepted at face value and no questions asked. She enjoyed a high financial standing in the world. Now that she must issue reparations bonds the question arises, who will take them? The debt covered by them is owed to France and Great Britain and they of ne- cessity must accept them. The United States is ex- pected to absorb something like two hundred million. This will be done, but the international bankers say Germany has a bad character with reference to fi- nancial dealings and such bonds as they accept must be guaranteed by France and Britain. These nations can no doubt secure all the American money they de- sire for their own purposes for they deal honorably, but ne American banker will loan Germany money on rer bonds with her present reputation. To make the guarantee good France will have to keep an army on the Rhine ready to march if the interest payments are not paid promptly. It was the elder Morgan who once said, the wise money lender gave more weight to the character of the debtor than to his collateral. Germany does not bear a good character. When she cuts out her bluffs about never paying her debts and returns to the old time German spirit of promptness and scrupulous hon- esty her standing at the bank will be improved. See aS es SE THE ANGLO-JAPANESE ALLIANCE. “The British Imperial conference which is to meet soon will pass on the question of continuing the Anglo-Japanese alliance,” observes the New York Tribune. ‘Canada, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa are opposed to renewing the treaty as it stands. If it is renewed they want to give it a form which will be less objectionable to the United States. The do- minions, whose policy on Japanese immigration is in harmony with ours, do not care to be tied up to a compact which might compel them to support Japan in ease of a break between Japan and the United States on the immigration or race discrimination is- sue. “The present treaty between Japan and Great Bri- tain is defensive in character and binds each power to protect the other’s interests in the Far East if either is attacked by a third power. Great Britain's sup- port is made conditional by a clause exempting her from any obligation to make war on a third power with which she has a general treaty of arbitration. It is open to dispute whether or not any existing trea between the United States and Great Britain satis that definition. “The four dominions are a on this score removed and to put f the day of settlement of the state. It has not only retained its original strength and beauty in the trans- planting but it has become the official language of the west. Therefore, when we tel! these long-haired professors who are conducting parlor classes in Bol- shevism out in the erudite east, where they can go, we trust there is no misunderstanding of the meaning or any misapprehension as to the grammatical con- struction. ge When the Shoe and Leather Reporter says: “As the world grows smaller its problems grow larger,” it is suspected that that journal has taken up Einstein. SD 1 aga WEE BEE APE) PASSING OF THE ROOF. When liquor went out and ginger ale came iu, the night life as represented in the roof gardens, was doomed in New York. The last of the “roofs” has closed down, Ziegfeld’s, and the hand-picked beauties of the fcllies are open for engagements. So also is the syncopated orchestra. This famous roof has been the scene of more gaiety and female nudity than any spot of equal area in the world in the years it has operated. The hilarity became a mere mockery when prohibi- tion officers finally found means to enforce the Vol- stead act, and now those who finished the evening om the roof, where the performance did not begin until all theaters and other places of amusement had closed, wilt be torced to go home at something like a season- able hour. : For the moral good of the community, nothing has been lost by the passing of the roof theaters. For the most part the participants in the festivities were peo- ple cf means who were hunting new thrills; and while their particular morals could be made no worse, the influence of the reof entertainment was bad. The workings of prohibition include a great deal more than the mere abolition of liquor. Ea Aes SI It s going to be a whole lot of trouble for some fel- vs who think they are laying up treasures in heaven to realize on them. $$ —___—— i THE COMMON ASPIRATION. The president spoke for the nation on the occasion of the return of the soldier dead from France, when he said: “It must not be again.” He echoed the hope) of every home in the land. If we would devote ourselves to peace, we must be so strong in power, so righteous in our actions that no nation wi!l desire a quarrel with us. That we are prepared with a powerful navy and a trained soldiery does not change us from a peace loving people to a militaristic nation with a chip on its shoulder. Let us see to it that it does not occur again; but let us do the things that will effectually insure it, by making it impossible. Our pledge to maintain peace will be taken by the other leading nations of the world, who are as sur- feited with war as are we. If we have a responsibil- ity in this matter let us assume it. There is time enough to talk of disarmament when nations come into agreement that war must be abolished. MEDAL E Aug OMIT THE SINGING. A New Jersey congressman has hopped into fame by his resolution to require the singing of the Star Spangled Banner immediately following prayer by the chaplain at the opening sessions of the house of rep- resentatives. The resolution does not provide for a paid choir which it should have done for trouble will doubtless be found in “pitching the tune” in that difficult hymn, in a congregation more accustomed to chanting “The Gang’s All Here.” It can be recalled, how, during the war, we butch- ered the national hymn in our efforts to put it over.

The Republican has refrained from publishing much detail with reference to one case of moral perversion which occurred recenily, because it felt that the disgusting details in the public print would do more harm than good. The Republican also feels that the of- ficers of the law are making a vigor- ous effort to stop infringement of the Jaws, though it would appear that there are still too many places where Uquor is obtainable. This 's a time when these officers need ali the en- oouragement and backing that they can get. Certairly it is the duty of every decent citiisn to assist in every possible manner in the proper enforce- ment of the law, Any man or woman who buys “moonshine” is just as in 1914.
