No added What they did grant they THE SUMMER SABBATH. “One gins is certain about the modern warm eather Sunday,” observes the Hartford Courant. “It is very little a work day, as the usual term ap- plies. Equally sure it is a day of recreation. There is a disposition among cynics to intimate that the day's recreation is limited to golf-chasing by rich dyspepties. This is absurd. “There is no counting the number of automobiles on the road on Sunday. If these take their passen- gers to the shore, there they see thousands of idlers or pleasure-seekers on the sand, in the water, or in boats. If the automobiles take their passengers to the hills, there they see household axter household that is not also out in a machine lying in hammocks or sitting on easy chairs out under the trees. “The one exception to the stoppage of work, ex- cept among those who are connected with the trans- portion of the day, is found on the farm. It is no lcnger surprising to see men and women harvesting on Sunday. Time was when a driving party drew little attention, but farm work on Sunday surprised and shocked the average spectator. Now, however, since the war a new value has attached to food. It is a duty to maintain the crops. They grow on Sundays, the pests are as lively on Sundays as on week days, vain is as bad for hay on Sunday as it is on Friday, and if a shower impends, it is a duty to get the hay into the barn rather than to leti it be destroyed by a storm, with the sending of which the farmer himself has nothing to do. “Driving, walking, swimming, sailing, resting and sowing the crops seem to mark the day which once was devoted to quiet and solemn thoughts. There are, of course two sides to everything, and there are those who see in the present situation a dissolution of sacred relations. Others see a broadening of conduct, which is not inconsistent with good character and respect for religion.” -——— 0 THE MAJOR OBJECTION. “Is it necessary for the ways and means committee to report a revenue bill which will raise four billion dollars annually?” inquires the New York Tribune. “President Harding evidently doesn’t think it is. He is said to have told members of the committee that taxation ought to be reduced, and that it can be re- duced through further cvts in government expendi- tures. “For the current fiscal year, ending June 30, 1922, congress appropriated about $3,800,000,000. Of this sum $275,000,000 was for deficiencies. The nor- mal ependitures for the year will be about $3,5 000,000. Director Dawes expects to save about $100,- 000,000 on that allotment. He and Mr. Madden, the new chairman of the house appropriations commit- tee, are to have a series of conferences for the pur- pose of scaling down the appropriations for 1922-’ It is possible that the new budget, in which defi- ciencies will no longer figure, may not run far beyond $3,000,000,000. “Many departments never know what they can do in the way of economy until they try. Secretary Weeks was afraid he couldn’t reduce the enlisted strength of the army to an average of 150,000 for the present fiscal year. But there was no trouble whatever in getting the army down to that figure when the enlisted men were allowed to apply for discharges. There are hundreds of government ac- tivities which can be slowed down temporarily with- out material damage. “Representative Longworth has the right idea. He says that the new tax bill ought to raise the smallest peasible amount of revenue. It is better to make the mistake of raising too little than of raising too much, for supplemental taxes can easily be voted if needed. The main thing is to accustom the government to a lower cost scale. “Tax reduction is the thing which the country wants most. The tariff can wait; expansions of service can wait. Weare trying to get off the war inflation basis and back to peace conditions. The administra- tion has promised tax relief and cannot afford not to make good. Politically and economically speaking, a genuine tax reduction has always been and still is the major objective of the extra session.” © PROFANITY IN PRINT. Alexander Black, writing in Century on the use of profanity on the stage and in print, says: “I recall what seemed to be the first speaking of “damn” on the American stage. Most of the auditors Bppeared to be shocked. Apparently the shock was ngreeable in most instances. This. was not to be meas- ured by the almost unanimous laugh. The laugh an- “'Swers before conscience. “Taste often rebukes participation. Yet it was pos- }@ible to feel that the incident was accepted as refresh- *ing, or as subject to'some cordiality of consideration. © At that time ‘damn’ in print was always ‘d—n.’ Even ite devil did not have his due. He was ‘d—l’ in Wall respectable secular print, and by a perhaps inevit- fh ably corollary, *h—l’ was decently censored. “There was, by the way, a quandary for one who fead aloud: a dash cannot be vocalized. ‘Dash it,’ was quaintness of early print. There is a whole litera- ture of euphemistic expletives, as well as a strange Plteration of subterfuges in actual profanity many Hof which seem to have permanent life. © “The modern realist may_well regard with smaze- ment the ingenuity ith which literature has con- “*weyed an"efféct of ae | é¥en in rough ‘talk, without 4. ° expense, no added investment is required on the part of the government; there is no added liability, no added tax burden.” How different is all this from the methods pursued by his predecessor in office. When more money was required to take care of the new burdens of expense loaded on to the roads by the federal administration, the treasury was asked to sup- ply the funds and the taxpayer was called upon to increase his contributions to the cost of government. The roads are co-operating with the government in the effort to bring about a speedy and permanent financial settlement. To that end they have waived temporarily their claims for added compensation on account of labor inefficiency during the period of government control, those claims to be adjudicated later through the courts. The way appears to be cleat for an early adjustment with the relief asked. With the roads in position to) take care of. their pressing liabilities, the solution of other problems may be ap- proached with confidence. PUA eg KEEP THE AMERICAN SAFES LOCKED. The mos¢ puzzling problems, the real complex ones, the very toughest there are, are as easily solved as the simpler ones. The only requirement is the right person to hand you the simple solution. Thomas A. Edison, spending a vacation in the West Virginia mountains, has thought it all out. And when he puts his mind to a subject like world peace, including dis- armament it is a small job for him to figure out. He has written the answer to many other questions in- volving the welfare of humanity and the answers are conferring their blessings, daily, upon the people of the world. The problems he has solved have all been mostly of that character, thercfore permanent peace was directly in his line. His plane is so simple that many wise men will say it is absurd. Yet it is prac- tical, very practical, and it will work to perfection. Mr. Edison’s answer to the conundrum that has forced everybody else to “give it up,” is to keep the American safes locked. You cannot build ships, arm and equip military, maintain great forces of men pre- pared for war at a moment's notice without money. You cannot purchase materials and the paraphernalia for war without paying for them. You can not get the vast sums required for the purposes without find- ing a market for your securities, for most of the peo- ples of the world are helpless to pay the costs by tax- ing themselves. The peoples have mo money and the governments are already .in debt up to their eyes. Consequently, iftAmerica, the only nation that can raise the means, keeps her safes locked the rest of the world is up against it and has got to keep the peace and suspend outlays for military and naval expansion. Mr. Edison says it is the great opportunity for America, and it all depends upon American leader- ship. If Mr. Harding says, “Come on boys, we're all at the end of the string,’ let’s junk the works and stop our foolishness,” the disarmament conference will be a success and world peace will dawn. Mean- while, keep the safes locked. Mr. Harding has the courage and the leadership that goes with it to map such a program, and submit it to the representatives of the powers, If he does, he will win. If he does not he will lose. Then the conference will fail and the world goes back to the same old struggle to keep up with the show of force and the people will sweat and groan under tax burdens for generations to rome. Thomas Edison, vacationing in the mountains of West Virginia, has handed the world the recipe for world peace and disarmament. It is in the rough and unaccompanied by blue prints and details. The basic idea is there, and it is for Mr. Harding to elaborate the working plans. The foundation of it all is—keep the American safes locked. Se IS SORE ABOUT IT. Our esteemed Wheatland Times is dead set against profiteering and takes it out of Cheyenne for its al- leged treatment of the pubic attending the Frontier show. The Times says: . “Never again” is the decaration of many people who went to Cheyenne to attend the Frontier Days celebra- tion. It was a good show, no complaint on that score; but the way the hotels and restaurants stung the people for food and lodging was something scan- dalous. Hotel rates are always high enough in Cheyenne, but high as they usually are, proprietors boldly announced to their guests that beginning with the first day of the big show, rates would be just doubled—that was all—only doubled! At the same time, every bill of fare in the city, so far as was observed, took an ‘advance on every article of 50 to 100 per cent. Well, the people had to eat, and had to have a bed, so they paid the price,. but paid with the vow that it woud be the last time they would place themselves in position to be held up in that manner.” Rs aS GUBERNATORIAL AMENITIES. Of all the journals of the state, it is most appro- priate that the Snake River Sentinel speak upon the subject of felicitations among governors, There- fore the following as the Sentinel’s lead editorial is to be given due weight: “Says the Governor of Wyoming to the Governor of Colorado: ‘Will you have anything to drink?’ Says the Governor of Colorado to the Governor of Wyo- ming, ‘Yes, anything.’ “Both must have exhausted private stock and got down to bare moonshine.” a Was Germany purposely omitted when the invita- tions to the disarmament party were issued,~‘or) is Germany considered sufficiently disarmedt On Air Flight Is MIEOLA, Hauser, employed by an airplane com- pany was up in the air when he be came .engaged to Miss Mildreu Arm- content quieted down.
