Mr. Wheeler and Mr. Tinkham Mr. Wayne B. Wheeler, general counsel of the ‘Anti-Saloon league condemns congressman Tink- ham of Massachusetts, who moved for an in- vestigation of the leagua by a special committee of the lower branch of congress. He says Mr. ‘Tinkham’s charges are “false and groundless. He predicts the proposal of the “tinkering con- sman from Massachusetts to take the league apart and examine its works will not impress | the American people until they are convinced that he is inspired by a desire to promote the public welfare instead of that of the liquor in- Serests.” Mr. Tinkham has made charges against the Anti-Saloon league. If they are “false and groundless,” an official investigation will make their falseness and groundlessness clear to the public. ‘Mr. Wheeler gains nothing by accusing Mr. Tinkham of a desire to help the liquor interests. Suppose merely for the sake of argument, that Mr. Tinkham really is working for those who would profit financially by a return of the coun- try to wetness. That does not affect the truth or falseness of his charges. What the Anti-Saloon league has done has no ralation to what Mr. Tinkham has done. “The Anti-Saloon league need not be ashamed of spending large sums of money, ‘provided the money is spent according to law. If there is nothing to be ashamed of, a full investigation cannot harm the league. To try to block an in- vestigation will hurt the cause of prohibition enforcement. An organization cannot campaign for respect for law very effectively unless its own respect for law and obedience to law is es- tablished beyond despute. It would seem the experience of Mr. W. H. ‘Anderson, the New York state superintendent of the same organization Mr. Wheeler represents, ‘would be sufficient lesson to at least call for the soft pedal. The league has lost considerable prestige and more popularity than it should by the attitude of just such men as Wheeler and Anderson. Peace Schemes The judges for the hundred thousand dollar Bok peace prize say they have been overwhelmed by suggestions, and that answers have come from every civilized country in the world except Russia. ecept that the contest will cause people to think of peace and thus make peace a thing more to be desired the whole matter is a waste of time. Peace is a matter of evolution. The tronble with us today is that our mental equipment is away ahead of our spiritual equip- ment. Our brain power has given us weapons and scientific knowledge that we will not use properly because we are too selfish, greedy, pre- judiced and intolerant. : We are like two-year-old babies playing with sharp razors. oa Family life is a replica of civic life, civic life a replica of national life, and national life a re- plica of international life. When husbands and wives stop fighting, civic factions will probably stop fighting. When civic factions stop fighting, national factions will stop fighting. And when peace reigns with- iat ood protection and Great Britain under ees trade. . No protectionist would have the assurance to} conclude that Great Britain is in a bad way} simply because there are slums and evidences | of poverty in parts of London. But a candid ex-| amination of the facts as presented by British official fi, covering the whole country, tells a story of depression, idleness and widespread business inactivity. Conservative and protection leaders in Great Britain would do well to print in parallel col- umns the real facts washtiar the present busi- ness conditions of the Uni' States and Eng- land, giving allowance to the ravages of war. If the business interests of Great Britain would discard their prejudices ‘and look the facts in the face, they would realize that some sort of comprehensive protection is the only thing that will rescue the country from dire dis- M aster. fe Tatum is acting as physical instruc- The Woman Pays on Verily, the transgressor must pay. If this fact has ever been illustrated completely, it has been in the case of Evelyn Nesbit. Possessed of a fatal beauty and a wonderful charm she pro ceeded to employ them ruthlessly. If ever wreck, tragedy and misfortune followed the wake of one it has been this one. She is about the last of the group with which she became associated on her arrival from a western Pennsylvania yil- lage to the bright lights of New York. Since that day she has been the direct cause of murder, suicide, insanity, waste of fortune, re ot! thi cei rr death, wreck of family relations, loss of wealth and position, not to mention the long list of minor tragedies and misfortunes to those who came within her circle of influence. Now, the principal, herself, has come to the end of her rope. No longer young, and no long- er possessed of the great beauty that once was hers, her friends and admirers gone, her fortune vanished, with only deaf ears to answer her ap- Is, she has entered a sanitarium begging to be cured of the drug habit which has her bound in chains that have been forged by long con- tinued use and whose links can not be broken by skill or science. This is the end. And it teaches to all American youth and beauty, a lesson that needs no further elucidation. Who Is Not in Favor? The great difficulty of dismissing Secretary Mellon’s proposals for tax relief is that it means money saved for seven million taxpayers. All classes are reperesented—everybody who mere an income tax, rich and poor, high and low. The saving means over $300,000,000 a year. Who does not want it—who but a lot of politicians? And $1 be: ith by wi to them the subject is dynamite because’of the | of soldiers’ bonus. Lis Yet the facts must be faced. If taxes are to be lowered, less money must be spent. If more money is spent, for whatever cause, worthy though it may be, taxes cannot be decreased, but will be increased. Who is not for lower taxes, including federal income taxes? Who dares say that a new tax of any kind, proposing to raise millions of dollars can be imposed and taxes still be reduced? Partners in Crime : In fighting the narcotic evil in this country those charged with enforcement of the law find themselves opposed ‘by some of the cleverest and shrewdest criminals of any age of rottenness this old world has known. Along the Mexican border of late it has been discovered that dope smugglers have employed the beautiful homing pigeon in their criminal operations in transporting their wrecking poi- son across the border. So successfully have these intelligent birds been in the nefarious work assigned them that in many quarters of the underworld where the drugs are handled and the birds have their home, there has been a great slump in prices of narcotics, The innocent smugglers are taken to the Mex- ican headquarters of the gang, avhere a moist- ure-proof package is fastened to the bird, either under the wing or under the body, then liberated and checked up on arrival in the United States far back from the border. The smugglers are sharp enough to release the birds singly and at intervals that would cause no suspicion. It is astonishing to what infinite pains men will go to do a criminal act, when they are cer- tain sooner of later to be caught and punished, when by using the same ingenuity to perform a legal sind honorabl act their rewards would be so much greater, The Small Articles It is not always the big articles which make manufacturers and dealers rich. It is, perhaps, more often the other way. There is of course a larger profit per unit where large articles} are concerned, but the percentage of profit may be greater on small and comparatively unim- portant articles. However that may be, the fact is that the profit in small articles lies in the great number that is sold. The tallest inhabited in nations, peace may also reign between na- tions. But the will to peace must first begin with the individual. Mr. Jones must cease to quarrel with Mr. Smith over the lawn mower and Mrs. Smith must stop squabbling with Mrs. Jones over the back fence, before nations can begin to get along with one another. The whole is no better than its weakest part. All those peace schemes will come to nothing unless somebody has stumbled on the secret of suddenly making men as good as they are clever. (The “Slums” and Protection » One of the free trade speakers in the hotly contested struggle now going on between pro- tectionists and free traders, remarks that the United States is not so prosperous and condi- tions are not so good as protectionists would have the world believe, because the slums in New York city are as bad as the slums in Lon- don, and poverty exists just as much in por- tions of New York as in London. But the slums of New York or any other great city do not reflect the economic condition of the whole country. As well might a pimple on a man’s nose be proof of a fatal disease through the whole system, or a single death from con- sumption be proof of a whole nation of consump- tives. The economic and industrial condition of a nation must be determined by a comprehensive survey. The effect of a given policy on a nation must be viewed as a whole, in the perspective. ‘When the number of unemployed, the amount of wealth per capita, production in the manu- facturing institutions and production on the farms, the number of homes and the total sav- ings in the banks and trust companies, are com- pared, there is no room for doubt as to the rel- ative economic condition of the United States -+ building in the world, the great Woolworth building in New York, was built from articles sold for five and ten cents. The manufacture of small, cheap articles, such as are sold in the five and ten cent stores, is an important one. Many factories are engaged in making them and many are the workmen em- ployed. In the nature of things the profit per piece is very small, the manufacturer's sole chance of Bas | a profit lying in the manufac- ture and sale of immense quantities. Rut have our readers ever stopped to notice the fact) that a large proportion of the articles for sale in such stores are of foreign manufacture? The larger proportion of them bear such markings as, “Made in Germany,” “Made jn Japan,” or made in some other foreign country. How many of us have ever stopped to consider that’ tho millions upon millions of dollars worth of these foreign made cheap articles which are sold here deprive American manufacturers and workmen of the production which rightly belongs to them? If we'buy these foreign articles we are injuring ourselves and our neighbors. Writing on this subject a prominent Ameri- can manufacturer says: “You may think that because it is cheap zoods that we do not need to bother about them, but the vast valume of business that they are doing en goods that they import is working mischief with lots of factories in this country.” The same writer says that the tariff “does Ge begin to cover the difference in cost of la- or.” Foreign currency depreciation and unsettled foreign economic conditions are largely respon- sible for the fact that tho tariff on this class of articles is not protective. The American val- uation system which was written into the tariff act of 1 by the house of representatives, and cast out by the senate, would have obviated this unfortunate condition.
