Neihardt, poet laureate of Nebraska, includ- ing the address delivered by Mr. Neibardt on the oc-|country, it is a rather severe blow to that contention easion of his acceptance. The following paragraph is taken from the Tran- script’s article: “On April 18, 1921, the senate and house of!rep- resentatives of the Nebraska legislature passed a joint and concurrent resolution, naming John G. Neihardt, poet laureate of Nebraska, in recognition of the Amer-| jean Epic Cycle upon which he has been engaged for) eight years. Mr. Neihardt is the first poet thus to be) officially recognized and honored in the United States. | In passing, it might be said that there is much talk of| thus recognizing another western poet whom the pub- lie sentiment of his state has been supporting for similar honors. Mr. E. Richard Shipp is the other poet, and it is mot at all unlikely that the Wyoming) legislatcre will officially recognize him as the poet Jaureate.” The Transcript makes = very timely ion to the legislature of Wyoming and one that should be carried into effect at the next session. Titerature Mr. Shipp deserves the honor the Boston newspaper suggests. And the thousands of friends throughout the state that have been made friends through his writings, will rejoice and approve with the other thousunds of friends in Mr. Shipp’s home ‘town. a NS INTERNATIONAL MEDDLERS. ‘Those who urge the cancellation of European debts mre striving fost as hard to carry their point as ever, despite the fact that congress has passed an act and commission has been appointed to arrange the terms of repayments of loans extended by the American peo- pile to the several rations of Europe. The lines of argument presented vary widely. Some aim that it is impossible to pay the debt unless we permit the importation of goods to a like amount, others insist that we owe a moral obligation to Europe to wipe off the debts as part of our contribution to the cost of the war, while still others flatly declare that foreign treasuries simply cannot make the payments. A stady of the three principal debtor nations shows the fallacy of the cancellation propaganda. Great Britain not only can pay but has indicated her willingness to pay, and has already made provi- sion in her annual budget to meet the interest charges for the current year. The refunding commission should Inve no difficulty in adjusting the interest payments for the future, and in arranging for regular reductions of the principal, amounting now to about four and a quarter billion dollars. The natural resources of| Great. Britain did not suffer at all from the war, and she added to her wealth a great amount of new terri-| tory rich in raw materials. France owes the United States about three and a/ half billions. Her national debt is approximately $23,000,000,000 figured on a gold standard, with a mational wealth of around $60,000,000,000 and an in- gome of about $7,500,000,000. Like Great Britain, France received immensely valuable additions to her territory in Alsace and Lorraine, the Saar Valley, and former German colonies in Africa. The annual in- terest on her obligation to the United States would be approximately $150,000,000, which she should be able to pay easily, and the principal can be so spread over eee | credit means the destruction of the repudiating na- | ticular joi Jer to insensibility pr By his splendid | s¢ is ut attainments in learning his valuable contributions to| tific support of any kind.” & period of years as to make its payment no great ad-| dition to her financial burden. Italy has a total national debt of about $5,000,000,- 000 in gold. Before the war her wealth was $22,000,-) 0C0,000. She too, annexed valuuble territory from Austria, which will bring in added revenue. Her debt te this country about $1,800,000,000. Interest) charges would be less than $90,000,000 a year, surely not a great burden, even with substantis] annual prin- cipal payments d. It is understood the debt refunding commission will) turn its attention first to the British obligations. The/| successful outcome of those negotiations will form an important precedent for those that are to follow. Na-| tional pride in the other debtor nations will not per- | mit British credit to stand upon a higher plane than) their own. No country will allow another to out-| distance it In the race for international credit. Am-| bassador Jusserand gives voice to that feeling when) he indicnantly denies that France will repudiate her| “I want to say,” he declares, “that there are) | 39,000,000 ‘loyal Frenchmen who stand squarely be-| hind France's 89,000,000,” Did they but know ft, cancellationists are dealing a Blow to international peace and goodwill rather than aiding that cause.

Unable to ne- gotiate foreign loans, a discredited country would fall an easy prey to the enemy. ee ee THREATENING THE PUBLISHERS. If any N n leaguer or anybody else walks into a ¥ ewspaper office and attempts to in- terfere with the freedom of expression of that par al, the editor, foreman or devil, which | ever happens to be in command at the time, is justi-| fied in using the mallet, side stick or any other imple- ment or article that comes handy in reducing the call- ious to dragging the body out to the hog lot. The Wheatland Times says attempts are being made in this direction. The last issue of that newspaper contains the following: “Pressure is being brought to bear on publishers of weekly newspapers in the small towns of Wyoming to compel them to censor news stories witich have to do with the exposure of the Nonpartisan league. “Several owners of weekly papers huve reported that leaguers have visited their places of business and de- manded that the publication of matter adversely per- taining to the league be not given space in their papers, “Since ft is one of the big howls put up by the leaguers that a free press is the one thing essential as far as Townleyism is concerned. If these coercive tactics are to be resorted to, the fair-minded peopl hoped will repudiate their affiliations with the same. “Newspapers of North Dakota suffered indignities) of the same sort, prior to the lengue’s gaining control| of that state, and afterward many were forced owt of business who did not bend the knee to the dictatorship of the league leaders.” : pc et VIOLATES SOUND ECONOMY. The executive council of the American Federation of} Lebor in a statement recently given out has declared against the practice of fixing wages with relation to! the “cost of living.” “The American trade union move-| ment,” said the declaration, “believes that the lives! of the working people should be made better with each passing day and year. The practice of fixing wages} solely on a basis of the cost of living is a violation of sound economy and is utterly without logic or scien- The practice referred to developed during the war when great confusion existed in wages and prices and there seemed to be no better way of temporarily ad- justing wages‘than ty reference to the changes in the cost of the principal necessaries, Claims for wage- advances were usually based on the advancing cost of| living, and the validity of the argument was accepted. Tt fs true that the practice is unscientific and un- sound, for the theory upon which it is based runs in a circle, the cost of living being itself determined mainly by wages. It should be added that all arbitrary or purely theoretical standards of wages and of living conditions are unscientific and unsound, except as they| may be offered as ideals to be striven for. It is use- less to set up an jdeal standard of living in Russia at) this time; if the food has not been produced it is not| to be had, and living conditions everywhere depend at| last upon the volume of production. It is im- possible to divide any more than all there) is; there is a definite Timit, and the total is} not ample. The lives of the working people will be made better if production is increased, not otherwise. It is important to put the emphasis in the right place. Endless gains are pyssible by that means, but few may be expected by fighting over the three-tenths or one- guarter that now goes to management and capital.) Harmonious industry will increase them, but group warfare will diminish them. ~ BRINGING COMMITTEE TO PEOPLE. It is a very excellent idea the Republican state cen- tral committee of Wyoming is trying out, as demon- strated in the gathering which took place at the Hotel Henning yesterday afternoon. Secretary Spencer has divided the state into five regions or districts in what are to be held meetings of committeemen and party! workers at frequent intervals to discuss party mat- ters, devise ways and means of combating the enemy and advancing the interests of party candidates. The plan contemplates bringing the committee to the party members in place of requiring the members to come to the committee. The trial of the departure from the usual plan de- veloped a better understanding than could have been cbtained under the plan heretofore followed and the| contact of Republican workers from the several coun-| ties was the means of arousing considerable en-| thusiasm. »Meetings in the other districts in the state will be| held in rapid succession. | | a 0 THE DOCTORS TELL THEM. A couple of high medical authorities the other day took occasion to inform the American Medical asso- ciation in session at Chicago just what ails the doc- tors turned out of the schools in recent years. The diagnosis made by Dr. Eycleshymer, dean of | reaction, in which ono feels that, rath- | University of Nebraska college of medicine, follows: | “Take the mystery out of medicine and take the | patient into the physician’s confidence.

The medical teach- ing system must be made more elastic, so we can build| efficient, strong, independent thinking physicians who ‘will not need to hide ignorance behind Latin nomen- |clature, In this way we can win the public’s con-| | fidence, “Too many physicians have given their patients a cursory examination and prescribed a serum ora medicine which they believed would help. The physi- cian of the future must know. “To do this we must get away from the old rigid teaching system. We must make our currieulam more elastic and encourage students to pick out subjects in which they are interested and in which they will do research work. We must encourage the student to break traditions if necessary. In the old days all teach- ing was done by one instructor. Today the student takes work from seventy teachers.

There is too much of a tendency on the part of re- cent graduates to make a quick examination of their patients and prescribe a serum or a medicine which toward science and not has not been thoroughly tried out. “Tf the physician had the welfare of the patient at heart he would depend on the laboratory less and his own examinations more. A man may be splendidly en- dowed scientifically and still be a brute. a wonderful medical knowledge and still be a quack. | What we need are physicians aa have a sympathetic feeling for their patients.” RAR es MYSTERIES OF THE SEA. “Romance and mystery have not been taken from the high seas,” rernarks the Ohio State Journal, “even with the many inventions of man that help annihilate | Space and permit communication with the world in its Hard to Describe. It ts, I think, instruction to notice how: almost all attempts to describe man tn a condition of spiritual satis- faction save in every rare and won- erful single lines of great poetry, generally fail, Wo are all acquainted, for instance with that class of literature which de- scribes Utopias, or perfect social con- ditions in the future; and I think that most people will agree with me when I say that the effect of reading the ac- count of any perfect social state is to fill the soul with the sick and fiercest er than live for hajf an hour in such a society, one would consent to go on living even amid the vulgar and ser- vile sweating and scheming of a cor- rupt capitalism under which we do|” live, It is the same in those higher spheres, in which literary men and other great poets and great prophets have attempted the description of hap- piness. It has had exactly the same effect as a rule— an effect of reac. tion. The habit of painting pictures, par- ticularly in the elghteenth and nine- teenth centuries, modern pictures of angels in bleached wings and white nightgowns and so on, has always had I think, upon most people, the effect that it produced in the Byronio reac- tion—a general literary enthusiasm for praising hell, and describing devils noble and generous people, and nerally celebrating an infernal con- dition, the attractions of which I be- Ueve to be very much overrated. I say, therefore, that it is very, very rare that that particular note of the human spirit, at once singing and at rest, has been achfeved in lituera- ture. —G, K. CHESTERTON. sels that left port for a voyage failed to arrive at their destinations. They steamed away and disappeared. What fate they met, how it came and where, all are a part of the mystery of the sea. “Probably some mine, planted during the war and picked up when peace came, broke loose from its moor- ings, was caught up by the great ocean currents and carried out into the lanes of travel. Probably other vessels will be in collision with the.lost mines, for there are many not yet accounted for. Each mine may mean another mystery of the sea. The inven- tions of man have done much to make safer the navi- gations of the wide waters, but all the inventions of! man thus far have not operated to take from the sea the mystery that has enveloped it since sailing first began.” He may have o William J.
