There is no American heart, Protestant or Catholic, that will not beat just a little faster as the words ad- dressed by the recently chosen pope, Pius XI, to Cat dinal O’Connell the American representative to the college whose duty was the selection of a successor to the Iate lamented Piux X, are read. They were noble and sincere words from a source that has world vision. The pope said: “I was read tee see your peace loving country take dhe first step toward amelioration of this monstrous evil of armament. Like my illustrious and lamented predecessor, I have unbounded admiration for the en-| ergy and charity, and the great heart of your people. “You Americans are young in years, but old in wis- dom, worldly prudence and foresight. Your innate quality of facing justice and peace, your great moral and spiritual stability and your infinite riches make you the hope and anchorsheet of the world.’ . oo THE COMMANDER'S WISDOM. ‘Tie refusal of Hanford MacNider, national com- mander of the American Legion, to use his office as a stepping stone to membership of the United States genate is altogether to that young soldier's credit. The proposal of’his Iowa friends found little syw- pathy when put up to him. Doubtiess ararone Kendall of Iowa would have willingly considered him as an eligible successor of fermtor Kenyon had not Commander MacNider re- lieved the situation by removing himself from the list. His loyalty properly belongs to his comrades and he can best serve them and redeem their corifidence in him by toiling in their behalf in his present posi- tion than he could as a senator in congress. By his action Sree ie MacNider es himself to the great body of young men end has won the respect of the country at large. In the years to come when he has retired as the ae- tive head of the legion, if his ambition should turn to) public life, we are sure his state will be ready to hon- ‘or him and send him as far as his ability will carry him. a CUT THE TALK SHORT. The senate of the United States bas a duty before t in the ratification of the Washington conference treaties, that it should not be very long in accomplish- ing. America called the conference, led the way and now should be the first to confirm what our represen-| tatives have agreed should be done in the preliminary’ matter of abolishing war in composing international! controversies. Debate will ensue and more or less partisan politics will enter of course. But the administration doubt-' Jess has the majority of the senate committed to a) program for ratification. The Wilson school of thought which attempted to saddle the league of nations upon the country has been discredited and it is impotent except for speech- making and delay. The Harding school, favoring the association of na- tions for ending war and governing by agreement and without force has the grester appeal of performing’ the things sought and at the same time lifting the burdens of taxtion from the shoulders of nationals sick of war and bloodshed. When five of the most powerful nations of the earth find common ground fo- agreement or. a future program through their eblest and most sincere states- men the home governments should endorse their work Promptly. Let the oratory proceed quickly. and let the end come He, IS WORK A CURSE? A voluntary uplifter writing to the Boston Tran- script on the boy question says: “Frequently there come to me appeals, flustrated by pictures of merry, healthy-looking boys, and ask- ing the question, ‘Should not this boy be given a chance?’ which chance, on reading further, appears to mean more years at school and much skating and sports, accompanied by much physical examination di- rected to discovering possible bodily defects. If the same examination was made in private schools, it seems unlikely that any child would be found physic- ally perfect, teeth, eyes, etc. Besides this, the pri- vate school pupil, as a rule, is hampered by a more delicate constitution. Is not the community rather hysterical, at present, over physiological conditions? “Then, as to the length of school years. I have heard a business man say he preferred in his office a boy just out of the grammar school to one who had gone through high, for the reason that he was more full of life and zest and interest in his work. The added years of school (over the age of 14), seemed to less: his enthusiasm and make him dull. This, to easy to understand, for I have known sev- cf a child being held back from some pur- suit in which he wished to engage, being told he was too young, and when the time came that he was al- lowed to begin, the restraint had killed all his en- thusiasm. I have known, more or less intimately, some hundreds of working girls and have never known any who suffered from going to work at 16, or from too Jong hours of labor. Is work a curse? cut blemish, and svending time in sports, was put into the thoaghis of boys to honesty in work, to ing fair work for fair pay, to thrift, industry and a If one-half the energy that is now put into aiming at bodies with- | honesty in all things those boys would be given the very best ‘chance,’ not only for character-building, but tor material welfare.” | re { IMAGINE HENRY THE PRESIDENT. “Henry Ford is the latest conversational president,” \ observes the Louisville CourierJournal, “aud the a" | | cussion of his chances if profitless, is vastly entertain- ing.

There is the story of the peace ship, so quixotic an adventure that it-ma¢e a war-torn world turn up thé corners of its mouth in hearty amuse- ment “The reverse of the coin is also figured with Ford's campaign against the international banker, from whom he wants to save the world—a modern fable of Jason, the dragon and golden fleece. And in juxtaposition with that theme is the Ford plan of supplanting the gold standard with energy units, which the funny pa- pers have seized upon as their legitimate prey. ; “Forgetting for a moment the Fordian absurdities, sonality as is his mechanjcal skill, Mr. Ford nakea an excellent conversational president for those who are fond of this kind of romancing. Justin McCarthy's play, ‘If*I Were King,’ is such a romance. Francois Villon is overheard by Louis XL reciting his own pos- sibilities as the Prince of France and decides to give him a i. Ard, as a matter of artistic justice to Francois, Mr. McCarthy made his temporary rule a great success. “Likewise Mr. Ford might be pictured in the presi- ; dential chair es making the government an Ford Motor compeny, financed by energy units, man- ned by $6 a day men and paying dividends to 110,- 000,000 stuckholders. He could be imagined turning battleships into bathtubs or converting them into yachts for public entertainment. Then, as to Wall Street—but here the curtain should be mercifully drawn. This is comedy, not melodrama.” eae ee eer AMERICAN MACARONI. Commenting on the “macaroni and other alimen- tary pastes” industry, the United States Tariff Com- mission, in its fifth annual réport, says that formeriy a large part of our supply of “alimentary pastes” came from Italy, although the United States produces a surplus of durum wheat (the kind used in the in- dustry), especially prized for such pastes. During the war the domestic industry rapidly expanded and re- placed the Italian product which war conditions had eliminated from American markets. Italian macaroni, Eowever, commands a price premium and has @ well- established demand, particularly among the foreign residents of the United States, who are the largest consumers. Domestic producers fear that when nor- mal conditions are restored the Italian pastes will regain their former market. “Imports during the past two years have been relatively small.” The Democratic tariff law made a 33 per cent re- duction in the duty on tiese goods, or from 1% cents to 1 cent a pound. Today owing to the disparity in exchange this duty is but little removed from free trade. The pending tariff bill carries the old rate. Frobably the small importations of macaroni recorded since the war is due to the miserable industrial plight of Italy. But since the United States produces the right sort of wheat for the mranufacture of these “alimentary paste” products, there seems to “be no good reason why that wheat should be sent abroad to be made into pastes and then shipped back here in competition with the American products. The grow- ers of the wheat can do much better by disposing of it to American manufacturers of these pastes, who will employ American operatives to fabricate them, and whose wages will be expended in part in the pur- chase of foodstuffs, etc., produced by the American farmer. et ge — THE REAL NEEDS OF THE FARMER. “The present troubles of the farmers,” says the Iron Trade Review, “flow fundamentally from the ‘same causes which have brought distress to every in- dustry in nearly every country of the world. The farmer has seen the prices of his products fall faster than manufactured goods because he is unable to re-} strict production in the same degree as in the case of industry. As a consequence there is a surplus of farm products in proportion to the volume of industrial goods and the exchange value of the former natural- ly is depressed. In addition consumption in the indus- trial nations has been greatly curtailed. “ATl business would welcome sound measures to lift the farmer into the middle of prosperity. The more radical of the farm leaders would demand government financial aid to guarantee profitable prices. Such a scheme, of course, is unthinkable. “What the farmers really need is some comprehen- sive credit plan and a scientific co-operative market- ing scheme. Like all other producers the farmer this year should seek to cut production costs and increase efficiency. “Not higher prices for farm products but lower prices for manufactured goods that are out of line, lower industrial labor costs and lower freight rates are the real needs. When normal adjustments are made, recovery in the farm districts will go hand in hand with that in the industrial centers.” #eR RN et WANT THE ADVANTAGES. From the south comes an insistent demand for a doubling of the import duties on vegetable oils, par- ticularly cotton seed oil, cocoanut oil, soy bean oil and peanut oil. The southerners contend that vege- table oils can be produced so cheaply in certain Pa- cific islands and in China that it is impossible for the American producer to continue successful competi- tion. This is quite likely true. What the southern- er is asking for is not a “tariff for revenue only” but a tariff for protective purposes. The Democratic plat- form of 1920 declared adherence to the “traditional policy” of the Democratic party, which policy de- clares that congress has no constitutional right to im- pose an import duty for protection purposes. The Re- publican platform declared for a return to the Repub- lican protection policy. The Republicans won at the polls, but without the help of a single southern state. The south looks to the Republicans to enact a nrotec- tive tariff law, from which it gets its share of benefits, but it never helps put the Republican party in power. ete? (Sim Sas Ea ADDS HIS AMEN!
