Some basic political problems in Europe must bel solved before the continent’s powers of economic re- cuperation can become fully operative. The feeling that national security cannot be as- sumed results in excessive expenditures in many countries upon the means of military defense, expen- ditures which are particularly burdensome upon peo- ples suffering from a shortage and maladjustment of productive capital, and other evil consequences of the | war. No other single factor would sérve quite so effectively as assured national security to hasten the processes of economic revival in Europe. | It is gratifying that already other conferences with| more limited agenda are being arranged.

Women Can Fix It “(HE WOMEN of America can bring an end to child labor and with despatch,” believes the St. Louis Star. “They have two ready weapons, the bal- lot and the boycott. We venture to say that the women of North Carolina and other states using chil- dren for profit are just as much interested in the welfare of their young as those of any other com- monwealth and now that they vote and have learned the value of organization it will not be long before they make the exploiters of children behave. “Failing to get the proper legislation the women can have their way by refusing to purchase articles made by baby labor. Wile the boycott is not usually to be recommended as a weapon of reform nearly any step is justified that will end the cruel practice of taking the joy of life out of American children soon after they learn to walk.” —_———o. The Issue Plainly Put NHE NEXT WAR will not be against a foreign | nation but agai a foreign philosophy is the view taken b: Coler, commissioner of cha ties of New York. The next war is not in the future, it is here now, asserts Mr. Coler. “The day is one in which the issues are sharply drawn between those who believe in the rican home and family as the unit of our so nd political structure, and a be- lief in God as the best safeguard of public and private morality .and those who would have the state, or volunteer social agencies, assume the responsibility of parents and banish the thought of God from con- sciousness. “Jt is no longer a question as between the believers in one or another creed founded on belief in God. put a question between all who believe in God and all who do not. The struggle between these two forces, or state agencies, is on. I favor no state re- ligion. But I stand against a state intolerably irre- ligious.”’ The Industrial Situation )URTHER PROGRESS is the recovery of business) in the United States is reported from week to week. While the greatest activity is in basic indus- tries, the improvement is evidenced in distribution, | also, and the increasing confidence which is shown by) the volume of forward purchasing is substantial evi- dence that business is very Wefinitely on the mend, In the iron and steel and automobile industries, this| betterment is especially pronounced. Textiles also e shared in the advance; intense activity in «build- ing is sustained: and the movement of freight other than coal shows further increase in volume. ~ A retarding element that holds in check a more general industrial revival is the persistence of sur- plus stocks of certain commodities. Until these stocks are further reduced. production in some industries must remain at rates below what may be considered’ normal. In other words, the improvement in business is still “spotty.” This, however. is not an unusual condition in a period of recovery from general de- pression. A second factor that should serve to re- strain over-reaching optimism is the fact that the season of usual slackening activity in many lines of industry is approaching. Should the summer months, however, show some recessions in activity, this would not necessarily be inconsistent with continued im- provement in underlying conditions. Bull Moosery Is Dead “(HE EFFORTS of Democratic leaders to revive Bull Moosery—to read into the results of recent Republican primaries in Indiana and Pennsylvania a condemnation of President Harding and the Sixty-sev- | eth congress—is hardly supportable from the record,” views the Washington Star. “Mr. Beveridge does not so construe his nomina- tion. He made his campaign as a Republican, accepts his success as a Republican, pledges his service if elected to the president and speaks for a reunited Importance of Russian Problem ‘'T IS BECOMING increasingly evident that the Russian problem is of major importance.

Hurry, let's get our lines and catch some!” exclaimed Ted. “All right, we'll get everything ready for tomorrow,” Ned replied. “But why walt?” demanded the eag- ler Ted. | “Because it is in the middle of the |day anc the early morning is best,” explained Ned. Now there were many things that ‘Ted from the city was able to teach his country cousin, Ned, Tut there were also muny things that Ned knew all about that Ted did not understand at all, so he did not question the wis- dom of Ned but proceeded to get lines reay and to dig bait.

Say,” he exclaimed, “this isn’t like @ lake. and trout are not like perch or horned pout or cat fish. You have to sneak up on ’em!"* Ted thought he was joking. ‘How con you sneai*up on a fish?” he laughingly demanded. And Ned began jto explain more things about fishing for trout in a small stream than Ted ever imagined existed. “First, watch out for your shadow,”” warned Ned. ‘Remember, it doesn’t just fall on top of the water. it goes right through the clear water to the bottom and the fish see it just as plainly as you can see my shadow here.” ; Ted looked at Ned’s shadow and nodded. He began to understand, “But |@ fellow can't lose his shadow,” he laughed. | “He can keep it where Mister Trout won't see it,” said Ned. “Well, let's start,” called Ted. “Quiet! Trout can hear! warned Ned. “I wish it had rained or been cloudy,’ he added. “Now I know why rainy days are best for fishing!" Ned laughed quietly at this and sneaked to the bank of the stream Ted went to another spot. Both boys made quite sure their shadows did not fall into the water, they kept quite still and made certain they stepped so lightly that their footsteps wouldn't shake the banks and thus scare the fish. They tossed their bait in at the same time—there was a splash and Ned yanked out a lusty trout. But Ted worked his baited hook in vain,, and after Ned had put fis fish in his bas- ket he sneaked up and watched—then The telephone systems of the United States comprise 34,000,000 miies of wire.
