Keeping His Pledge Washington News carries the assurance that President Coolidge takes his promise te carry out the Harding policies with complete serious- ness. His attitude on the budget and his reported insistence that the plan of Mr. Harding to hold it within $1,700,000,000 be adhered to is of par- ticular interest and significance in view of the expectations of many persons that this import- ant constructive work might be allowed to lapse to some extent under the new administration. Enthusiastic bureau heads -who have been “edging up” their expense estimates a little in lexpectation of some such recession will no doubt be disappointed at the announced purpose of the president. The public, however, which is deeply interested in everything that promises relief from tax burdens, will be entirely satisfied and solidly behind Mr. Coolidge in this stand and also in his reported intention of insisting on the departmental reorganization plan along the lines laid down by his predecessor, but with cer- 3|tain changes which have become necessary and would have become so had Mr. Harding lived. The people have become pretty well satisfied of the wisdom and prudence of the Harding pol- icies and of the benefits to be attained through carrying them out. Those which have been brought to fruition have proved valuable and the news that his successor is bent on accom- plishing them will be gratefully received. In this task Mr.» Coolidge possesses the ad- vantage of ‘intimate knowledge of the former president's plans as developed in cabinet ses- sions and the added advantage of retaining in his cabinet all the advisers of the late president who were relied on for details in connection with the plans as laid out. Mr. Coolidge’s message “to congress will be looked forward to with interest and, in the light of the information thus far divulged relative to his policies, without any of the apprehension | which might under different circumstances be occasioned by the sudden change of administra- tion. * e return of the crown prince, had they pn teat to defy the will of the entente. Yet five rs of an armed peace have not altered German national psychology, truculence and de- fiance stil] remain a characteristic of those who rule Germany. And as heretofore, trucnlence and defiance must be paid in coin that can iJ] be spared. Already M. Poincare has proposed the occupation of Hamburg, as a pen- alty for the recent actions of the Berlin govern- ment, and it is not impossible that other puni- tive measures may be invoked. “If individual Germans should desire a con- crete illustration of the evils that accompany a national attitude of intransigeance, they now have such an illustration at hand in the an- nouncement from Berlin that the central govern- ment can no longer “support” the Ruhr and the Rhineland, and that hereafter the inhabitants of these territories will have a shift for them- selves. The announcement is in effect a confes- sion of weakness, a confession that must be gall and wormwood to those Germans— and there must be many of them—who remember the glor- jes of the empire of ten or twenty years ago. Agadir and 1923, what a world of dif- ference! Yet today’s announcement from Berlin has another and more immediate significance. It_is a demonstration of the fate that Germans must expect from a continuance of the policy of defiance of the entente powers. The inhab- itants of the Ruhr and the Rhineland are the/| victims—in many cases the innocent victims—of the programme of sabotage and passive resist- ance put into effect by their leaders. “Millions of marks have been= poured into these territories in order to subsidize the cam- paign of hostility to the forces of occupation ‘Now this campaign has resulted in total and ut- ter failure, and the dupes and victims of this faflure—working men, their wives and children, not the industrialists and the magnates who have laid up nest eggs for themselves in neutral countries—face many months more of wretch- efness and suffering. And the suffering and the misery in the Ruhr and the Rhineland will be the portion: of Germans elsewhere in the Reich, if the central government continues to set “nat- fonal honor,” against the well-being and the hap- piness of its citizens. * ("Are these sacrifices made before the altar of-national pride worth while? Is it good busi- ness to flout the public opinion of the neutral ‘world by giving aid and comfort to the Hohen- zollerns, and trying to make of the treaty of Ver- sailles a’ scrap of paper? How many Germans could honestly say that it was? Nothing, more- over, is more likely to cement again the Anglo- French entente than an attempt to reestablish the Hohenzollerns on the throne as the stand- ardbéarers of a renascent German imperialism. This is the sort of stupidity that no people should pardon in their leaders.” Should Pattern Raflroads take meticulous care to see that their engineers are physically and mentally fit to be placed in charge of an engine.

Figures just compiled by the board of Fire Underwriters show that the value of the insured property wholly or partially destroyed was $7,- 987,574.28. The amount of insurance carried was $4,387,130.24. The amount of loss paid up to No- vember 2 totaled $3,648,076.69. Considerable property was destroyed without any insurance and the actual losses in this conflagration will reach the original estimate of over $10,000,000, The insurance. carried was approximately only 50 per cent of the property jue as nearly all dwelling owners everywhere have overlooked the increase in values during the last few years and in most instances are very much under-in- sured. -The Berkeley fire gives another forceful illus- tration of necessity of fire prevention and fire |protection measures in every city. These great \confragration losses which occur periodically in this nation help keep the fire loss per capita at Ci eyes th high ‘figures, in‘ fact the world’s reco} Such losses, while paid by the insurance com- panies to the extent of the insurance carried, come out of the pockets of the people in the form of insurance premiums. American fire insurance companies, after 100 years of fire underwriting experience, find that it is necessary in establishing rates to yield them a normal return of 6 per cent’on their under- writing profits, to add 3 per cent additional to cover conflagration losses. In other words, conflagration losses which are considered fires of $1,900,000 or over, are so nu- jmerous that experience has shown that it is nee- essary to figure on an extra three per cent to meet this hazard in order that insurance com- panies may figure on a normal return of 5 per cent. As a matter of fact, the underwriting profit of stock fire insurance companies in the United States for the past thirty years has been less than two per cent. . Growth of Radio One .of the most important developments in radio comes with the announcement that Denver has been selected for the site of a new gigantic radio broadcasting station. The station, which will be one of the largest and most complete in the world, will be the third unit of the system of three broadcasting sta- tions designed to serve the entire country by the Radio corporation of America. At present they operate q@ station at Schenectady, New York, jwhich is heard all over the United States. The second station of the company is nearing com- pletion in Oakland, Cal., and is ed to serve the Pacific coast as far east as the Rocky Mountains. The Denver station will serve the section of the country between the mountains and the Missisippi river. From the Denver station, crop reports, mar- ket reports and concerts of the nee highest na- ture will be broadcasted, according to the com- pany’s plans. It will be possible for radio fans in all parts of the United States to hear the Charged With - GLENROCK—Marion Touslee Ses } It Happened in Wyoming of State-Wide Interest, Wired In, Telephone In, Written, Grape-Vined and Some of It Purloined — arrested Saturday by Deputy Sher iff Mray of Douglas, on a charge of mayhem preferred by A. 5.
