Don’t Change Quota. WMPLOYEKS of large numbers of unskilled workers have been keeping their lobbies busy in an attempt to secure a “liberalization” of the strict quota immigration act. So far they have met with nothing but discouragement by the atti- tude of congress. : The bills proposed, all of which have been re ferred to the house committee on immigration, which has yei to report, include one to exclude all immigrants who can not, under the decision of the supreme court, ever attain citizenship in this country; this would eliminate all Japanese immi- gration. Another would reduco the yearly quota of nationals of any country here according to the cen- sus of 1910 from 3 to 2 per cent, but would base the quota upon the census of 1890, which would have the effect of greatly increas- ing immigration from northern Europe. <An- other bill proposes that all immediate relatives of immigrants already here be admitted, outside the quota law, and 400 additional be allowed in, re gardless of the state of the quota. Another bill brings next years quota to operate this year, to tako care of refugees seeking haven in this coun- try. The probabilities are that none of these bills will be reported; universal sentiment seems to be that the present law is sufficiently liberal, if not too liberal, and that the United States neither needs nor desires a greater proportion of foreign- born than it is now in the process of assim ting every year. Treat °Em Rough i NEVER you see a “Red” sticking his head ‘ above the fence, smite it! Whenever you find a spreader of bolshevistic doctrine, call the lice! There is no place for the anarchist, the olshevist, the soviet in this country! But dont see “Reds” where is only nuttiness; and don’t get too worried over the “bolshevistic peril.” America is pretty sano after all! Eternal vigi- lance doesn’t mean finding a bogey man in every gathering of three on a street corner! Russia recently sent forth figures showing! there were some 13,000 “Reds” in the United States. If that is all, which looks extremely doubtful, they aro certainly not much of a peril. But the people do fear Redism; sometimes to a point of absurdity. Recently a Russian musician presented examples of the art of his country before a supposedly intel- lectual gathering. Later an inquiry was held to} determine whether or not the “cubist” music which had been supplied was not “red propaganda” in| disguise, and some worthy patrons of the arts ar-| ranged for a “counteracting” recital to “destroy! the effect” of the “anarchial doctrines” expressed | in the “Red music.” i Doubtless the rattling of chains, like the boom, of the thunder, is a very terrifying sound, but it is not yet on record that a noise ever hurt any- one. | Smite the “Reds” hip and thigh, and cast them | into outer darkness where they belong. But let’s not be frightened by bogey men or even| musicians, the power of which is only in the imn-} agination of the person who is scared. Save your powder for the real “Red,” and when| you shoot, shoot to do real damage. P< TS The Untrammeled Ones. ; Small town daily; and it should be jarrison Villard, editor and owner of The Nation, should be published far and wide, and given seri- ous thought by all who read news) pers... which means practically all adults in this coun- tr, Mr. Villard charges that the newspaper has be- come a money making iustitution rather than the carrier of an editorial message;-that its main function is to pay dividends rather ‘than to present the truth; that the great papers frequently take sides and deny the other side the chance to tell their story, and that they are, for all their clever- ness, used far too much by various interests to publish paid-for propaganda for this, that, and the other special interest. We can all see some examples of newspaper un- fairnes There are: papers which will print no Masonic news prominently. There are journals which minimize every activity of the Catholic church. There are papers in which a Jew can not get his name, and those in which a Gentile is never handled gently. There are Republican papers who can not tell the truth about Democrats, and Dem- ocratic papers which never tell the facts about Republicans. But, so far, the biased papers balance each other —and no man is compelled to read only one paper. But the real bulwark against the newspaper dicta- torship is the small paper, the country sheet, the a matter of pride to all such, as well as to their readers, that while of the larger city papers the truly fair- minded and honest sheets are in the minority, the exact reverse is true among most of the eighteen thousand smaller journals of the country. aa es Why Object to the Truth? M EMBERS of Congress, or some few of them, take umbrage at a recent remark by the Chancellor of the British exchequer referring to them as politicians. Why show peevishness over the discovery of a little secret by a foreigner that constituents of these gentlemen have known for years. Not only known but accepted as a fact and a condition. If a large share of the members of the lower house are not politicians of the purest type, in heayen’s name what are th . They are not statesmen, neither are they angels. : If the term is offensive, and the members would seek immunity from such open and public allusion to their status, they must reform from within, abolish political campaigns, suppress the Congres- sional Record, and destroy general public under- standing in our own country. : lf they resent the truth, they are foolish. For if there is one place in all the government that gives daily evidence of political practices, more than another, it is in the lower house. The people have grown not to expect statesmanship there. Here is where the poaes of both parties is born and nurtured, This is the old home from which political propositions are sent out into the world to make their way and carve a name for them- selves, Why be ridiculous and attempt to kid anybody, foreigner or native. Why pretend that in a gath- erind of 435 American gentlemen, or any other number, for that matter, politics is not the one game they are most familiar with and play with greatest skill. If politics, like baseball, horseracing, moving-| pictures, and other national sports, has become disreputable, it is the fault of the players. We do not agree that politics is disreputable or that the Englishman’s allusion carries any slight upon American congressmen. And it is only those who have not played the game square and know it that are growling about being called poli- ticians. Making Big Noise. EW discussion of the official management or mis- management by one Anderson, superintendent of the Anti-Saloon league. The job of Anti-Saloon league superintendent of New York would be a fairly tough one under any circumstances, and it seems that a lot of people had made it their busi- ness to add to the trials and discouragement of Anderson. Despite even this, Anderson appears to have taken fairly good care of his end of the game. About all that is found in the terrific breeze icked up is that there has been a split in commis- sions, causing the withdrawal of the financial sup- port of the Rockefellers. Just what business the liquor interests and boot- leggers have with the internal affairs of the Anti-Saloon league is not clear in any of the pub- licity in the whole matter. Regardless of it all it is not understood that the Anti-Saloon league is going out of business because of any mishap to Anderson, if it prove to be a mis- hap, the defection of the Rockefellers, the op) sition of the governor, or the howls of the liquor interests. If the league continues its well-known methods ol Ves — fhe Casvet Dally Cridune The Smiths’ New Servant Girl and the Radio. served. Neither does she take to the mat when she wants to put her sor- Tow over the footlights. Instead she finds a conventent docrpost, and, backing up against it, rolls her head to and fro across the woodwork. Her head is thrdwn back showing her lovely throat to advan- tage and her features are distraught with grief—but not so distraught as to destroy thelr symmetry. To an impartial observer unacquainted with the plot she might appear to be doing her dally dozen in exercises warrant- ed to keep the throat always full and rounded. The first nighter has at times en- tertainea the thought that possibly the up-to-date heroine has selected this method of showing her grief for the very reason. The older heroines thought only of their art and did not begruce the time given to expressing a woe too deep for words. But this is a practical age. It may be, the first nighter thinks. that the YORK state is in the throes of state-wide! heroine of the moment has bethought her of killing two birds with one stone.g While conveying her eing tlonal “distress to the audience she may be getting exercises. ——_—_— Tinkering the Clock Almost everybody has one of these rnamental clocks—chiefly notable rfor their elaborate construction exter- iorly and their ‘complete lack of en- ergetic works. If you own your own furniture you probably have one, hid- den away somewhere, and if you live among the furniture of others you are certain to move in on them every now and then, If tho clock comes with the other furniture you discover it in your first cruise over the apartment in search for possible articles of value the last PO|occupant may have forgotten. “Why here's a clock!" you exclaim gladly. Your other half comes eagerly. “Where?” she dumands, and on of pursuing the demon rum, the fight in New York state is just getting under way. The Anderson mat- ter may be considered the opening skirmish. A foolish and useless attempt on the part of a willing legislature to relax the state statutes in favor of wine and beer, will mean nothing. is eager eee To End Tax Exemption. BY SMALL MAJORITY the resolution favoring a constitutional amendment to put an end to tax exemption bonds issued by states and munici- palities has passed the lower house of congress and now goes to the senate where its fate is in doubt. The principle of such tax exemption is correct but it involves the question of states’ rights, and is likely to have rather hard going on that account. Tax-free bonds offer an opportunity for persons of large wealth to escape taxation under the fed- eral income tax and for that reason are in urgent demand. Because of this demand states and mu- nicipalities have been led into extravagant expen- ditures because of the ease with which they could market their bonds. Not only is the question of seeing it, continues in the same breath, “will {t run?” g “You proceed to find out. You find go out and buy a key, which is even more un: fortunate than finding it—and wind the clock. It responds immediately with pleasant ticks. “Sure!” you shout excitedly. This frightens the Clock and {t tops. You notice the absence of ticks after a mo- ment. But your optimism is barely Jashed. “Probably the works are sticky,” you abi for your new found pfize and hit ita brisk blow with your hand. It starts convulsiyely. Suddenly and without any apparent reason it beging to strike. It strikes fourteen times. “Then the striking and the ticking stop in beautiful concord. “IN see if I can’t. make it run,” you promise yourself and your wife —and you are lost.

He could make war, declare peace, amend the consti tution. Tis power would be absolute. For this country is governed by public opinion, | and public opinion is almost entirely in the hands of the newspaper. With this in mind the words uttered by Oswald — also enter into it. Those who are most anxious to retain this marketing opportunity for state issues are also loudest in condemnation of those who take advantage of them. From the economic stand- point, issuances of tax#exemption bonds should be discouraged because it ties up wealth in non-pro- ductive enterprises and this is a distinct loss to the community. It is a reflection upon the unscientific system of taxation under which we are laboring. As long as we penalize wealth we will drive it into hiding and the burden will have to be carried by others. soft rug, a floor pi had Styles in Wailing. been providgd Fashions {n expressing emotions on the stage have changed greatly | Cling without bruls! in the last few years, an observant é first nigter ass An emotional heroine a fev years back generally strating emotional gave vent to her surcharged feelings | panied in one of two ways hanckerchiefs.

It runs three hours and ten minutes but makes it up by strik- ing all the hours from noon to mid- nignt inclusive, just to show what it can do. If you are renting the clock you eventually move, leaving the prob- lem unsolved. But if you own it you have no such recourse. If you are strong minded you even- tually discover the solution. Some dark night.you put it in a bag lke an unwanted kitten and carry it down to the river. Just as you are throwing it in, the clock begins to tlok. It strikes wildly and despair ingly. But do not be deceived. It is merely tryng to work on your feel- ings.

Phone 3 aooy Fontaine, Fox n runs.| Imposing Upon Bootlegger Illegal traffic in quer is constantly extending the scope of operations for that part of humanity which lives without working. The rum runner, the bootlegger and je whisky pirate who robs the law breaker on ship or motor truck are only divisions of the industry. New vocations to bring in “easy money” are being thought up every da. by persons that never: handle a drop of illicit liquor. The bootlegyer is being imposed upon by pretenders. A downtown dentist told some friends at dinner the other night how he had swallowed hook, line and sinker in one of the swindling games managed adroitly by a smooth talk- ing individual who posed as a bootleg- ger. The stranger, bearing the air of a Prosperous business man, breezed in- to the office and asked for the dentist. “I beg your pardon,” he said. “My name is Bill Jones.
