Pen The Appeal of Music The percentage of those of the human family who do not love music, in some form, is very small. When you do find one, Mr. Shakespeare says, he is fit for treasons, stratagems and spoils. Sven animals are attracted by music, and it is employed in taming and soothing the most ferocious members of that kingdom. It was an inspiration yesterday at the open- ing of music week at the city park to hear the bands and the school children” in an open air concert. The great audience was thrilled. And well it might be, for the patriotic hymns, which tell of the glories of the republic, ‘yendered by fresh young voices, have a way of reaching the heart and arousing the pride of every worthy American. All week long and everywhere throughout the city, the state and the nation, music will be heard. What a mighty symphony will echo throughout the land. What a tremendous ef- fect will it all have upon the lives of the peo- ple, their hopes, their ambitions, their better- ment. Get Rid of Them No fair minded person will withhold proper commendation of the city police department for its efforts in the direction of ridding the city of bootleggers and other dealers in illicit liquor and of scarlet women. It has been a fine work, well done, insofar as is consistent with law and authority vested in the officers. There is one more chapter, however, that in all probability will be enacted without calling at- tention to its necessity, and that is the elimina- tion of the lowdown skunks who have poisoned the atmosphere of the community by their pres- ence—the contemptable scum, patterned after tthe form of men—who live upon the earnings of the poor, degraded creatures who cling to these degenerates as possibly the only form of human tie they haye on earth. These paracites fire ten-fold more to be de- *pised then the principals in the unholy partner- shi Those who have knowledge of such animals say that almost any day from twenty-five to thirty of fhem may be found defiling the atmos- phere in public places. They should be removed. The community should not be longer polluted by their presen They have no visible me: of support. They have no right to live in a Ch - ian community. The contamination is offensive. Tar and feathers is still effective treatment for what ails some human beings. The Crime of. Thrift The chief attack upon Secretary, Mellon is the charge that he owns stock in corporations which have had some federal taxes refunded or reduced. Upon this fact there is based the in- hAuendo that there is something irregular about the whole proceeding. Corporations having very prominent Demo- crats in the capacity of stockholders and direc- tors have had their federal taxes reduced or taxes illegally collected refunded without any one rising to insinuate that there was something crooked about the transaction. There has been nothing brought ont to justify in the remotest degree any charge that Secretary Mellon himself, directly or indirectly, used any influence with the income tax bureau to have an adjustment of the federal taxes levied against corporations in which he held stock or that these corrections and refunds would not have been made had Mr. Mellon not held the office of see retary of the treasury. In other words, the attck upon Secretary Mel- lon is the basest kind of demagogery. It is a part of the campaign of abuse wh is being ‘waged against any one who has accumulated any wealth and is the owner of any property. Another phase of this pro; ila of hatred and suspicion directed agai ny one who has exhibited any evidence appeared in a recent issue of the New York Wor It was an attack upon Senator Gooding, of Idaho, and Sen- ator Stanfield, of Oregon, insin ing that these two United States senators had, by reason of their official position been able to obtain cer tain favors from the war finance corporation in the form of loans for over $1,000,000, Livestock corporations in which these two sen- ators were interested’ negotiated loans from the war finance orporation. The charge was not di- but the insinuation was carefully dropped, that these loans were obtained through influence Mr, Gooding and Mr, Stanfield had by reason of their being in the United States senate. The charge was directly made that they had benefitted from the war finance corpora tion at a time when their fellow citizens and neighbors were unable to obtain loans from that corporation. The records of the war finance corporation shows t a livestock company in which Mr, Stanfield is interested obtained a loan of # 000, and it was all repaid. Three companies in Tdaho obtained loans in the » of R120, 000. One of these companies in which Mr, Good ing himself is interested, borrowed $4,000. The rest of the loans we made to companies in which relatives of Mr oding were interested, All of these loans were repaid There was no law yiolated in making these loans. Quite the contrary. They were made in strict observance of the law creating the war finance corporation. The proper securities and collateral were put up when the loans were ne- gotiated. The proper interest was paid by the borrowers. In neither case was there any spe- cial favor shown the corporations in which the senators or their relatives were interested. The fact that livestock loans in Idaho were in excess of $4,385,000, and in Oregon in excess of $4,750,000 clearly shows that the companies in which Senator Gooding and Senator Stanfield owned stock were not favored above their neigh- bors and obtained through the senators no pref- erence of any kind. Attacks of this .character, coming with in- creasing frequency, are a part of a well organ- ized campaign that is being carried on from some pulpits, from the platform, and through the columns of many newspapers to arouse the sus- picion and hatred of those who have not against those who have. It is a part and parcel of the propaganda that is being conducted in an effort to nfake the average man believe he is the vic- tim of an “invisible government” in control of rich an‘ corrupt influences. Some of those who engage in this campaign’ are merely cheap politicians. Some are demago- gues, even though they control newspapers and stand in the pulpit. Others are vicious. All are destructive, and if permitted to continue their work unchallenged will succeed in bringing about a state of public mind that will constitute a grave menace to the stability of the American government. This sort of propaganda has flowered and borne fruit in Russia. Under the bolsheviks, Russian communities are ruled by committees composed of “poor peasants.” No man who owns property of any kind, even land, no one who con- ducts any sort of business, is permitted to sit upon these committees, which constitute the local government throughout Russia. On. the other hand, the personnel is composed of the shiftless the worthless, the drunkard, the chronic loafer, the habitual fault finder, the venal and ee vicious. Evidently this is the ideal form of govern- ment in the minds of those in this country who are carrying on a propaganda against men in public life who have by their industry and thrift accumulated something. Burton the Man The selection of Theodore Burton, of Ohio to serve as temporary chairman of the Republi can national convention and, presumably, to de liver what is known as the keynote speech, is in all important particulars entirely in harmony with the general policy and purpose of the pres ent administration. The Coolidge regime, like that of President Harding, has been emphasiz. ing reduction of expenses and reduction of taxa- tion. Probably no one who has ever served in congress has a better known record in that re- spect than Mr, Burton. In fact the Ohio legisla tor’s critical inspection of all appropriation bills has often caused his colleagues to think that he is overzealous in that regard. However that may be, he is thoroughly will qualified to sound economy as 2 keynote for, the coming cam- paign, Like President Coolidge, Representative Bur ton is not very long on. talk. He has never made any pretense of being an orator and yet he has been a yery interesting and instruetive speaker during discussions in both the house and the senate, His addresses are always clear, logical, and easily read. Mr. Burton has the unusual distinction of hay- ing served first in the house, then in the senate, and gain in the house. His first service was in 1889-1891, but after one term he remained out of congress four years after which he was re turned for eight years from the last of which he resigned -when elegted to the senate for the term 1909 to 1915. He was out ofthe legis] tive branch of the government from 1915 to 19 1, in which latter year he returned to the lower I 1 Service in the legislative branch of the goy- ernment is only part of Mr. Burton’s experi- ence in public life. Under appointment by Presi- served dent Roosevelt he airman of the ir and from 1909 to 1 chairman of the nat ional waterways commission, created by con- gress to give a thorough study to the problem of waterway improvement. He served as a mem- ber of the national monetary commission from 1908 to eee commission which formulated the financial policy the mo: important features of which were ultimately embodied in the fed- eral reserve system. He is known as a deep stu- dent of and authority upon important problems of n 1 finance. As a member of the inter-parliamentary union for ten years, from 1904 to 1914, during which time he s peiaes tela in meetings at St. Lonis, Lonnans yeneva, Paris and The Hague, Burton acquir a thorough and practical knowledge of interna fatal problems. He is a member of the debt funding commission which has rendered such splendid and successful sery in adjust- ing debts due the United States. Service In three national conventions, 1904, 1908 and 1912, in- creased his acquaintance with public leaders throughout the nation and give him experience of value in presiding over the deliberations of 1 convention. Mr. Burton's early training was that of a lawyer in which profession he practiced for ten years prior to his first election to congress. During two years of his latest absence from con- gress he was president of the Merchant’s Nat ional Bank of New York Ci Ife has written a number of well known and highly esteemed works, among them “Financial Grises and Pe: iods of Industrial and Commercial Depression “Life of John Sherman, A Treatise on Corpor- ations ark the State,” and liscussion of “Some Political Tendencies of the Times and the Effect of the Wa ar Theron,” the latter being his latest literary production, 7 to commission from A Spendthritt Congress Tn addition to the carefully compiled national budget, congressmen have introduced bills re- quiring further outlay of $3,500,000,000 which figures include $160,000,000 estimated as cost of administration of the bonus for first years un- der the act recentiy passed by the houne. Most of this money which congress is seeking to withdraw from the treasury would be ex pended in pursuits entirely apart from the au thorized activities of t overnment. If enacted, these mensures would more than double governmental activities and require serv ices of approximately 1,000,000 new employes. Taxes would increase to three times their war time volume, The public is grasping the is a “spending” and not a * fact that congress ving” organization, 1909 as | cb Mother’s Place Editor Tribune: I cannot refrain from answering the article by the “Old Fashioned Mother,” appearing in the Tribune a few days ago. In the first place I must refute the charge against Mrs. Nettie Dunn, the woman who, representing the W. Cc. T. U. at the Monday even- ing mass meeting, so boldly defied the forces. of evil. She did not neg- lect little children, to take place, as she has done, in the court room, Her children are, grown an are self supporting young men and> women. She was willing to do her work at hotirs inconvenient to her- self to further the cause of right- eousness in Casper. I do not belong to the W. C. T. U. but I do believe that the women of that organiza- tion are attempting to accomplish the same end that many others of us are striving for through wom- en's clubs and church organizations, I am a firm believer in the power of God to guide the lives of individ-} uals and of nations and I belleve the right of franchise for women was God given, and that it is our duty to use it and to accept the other duties of citizenship which devolve upon us. How can a mother.who lstened to the stirring words of Mrs. Nesbit,! the rescue worker among girls, as she spoke at that same mass meet-! ing, dare to say that her duty is done when she has cared only for her own children in her own house. We will grant that a few women are | carried away by their call to public duties and do neglect the home, but by far the largest majority of wom- en Interested in public welfare are the finest mothers in the land. So long as such evils as we heard about the other evening exist, just so long are our children, even those in Christian homes and surrounded by the finest influences, in danger. And what of that numberless throng of ch'ldren from homes where such Influences are not exerted? My duty and the duty of every other think- ing woman is to those children as well as our own—and our duty will not be done as long as evil and ignorance exist—any where on the earth.

MAY STEWART AMES. —————— My Answer Editor Tribune: I am very glad to hear from the Old Fashioned Mother, and am glad to know she has two scns and two daughters who are gallantly standing behind her In her work. After all the years of care and toll, it is mighty poor recompense, when our child- ren have grown to manhood and womanhood, if they do not stand be- hind the mother. I was asked if there was ever anything accomplished worth while without sacrifice, my answer ts No, | emphatically No! Let us take the word sacrifice and see what we can make out of it in its modern sense. Do we self-sacri- fice or is the sacrifice on the shoul- ders of some one else? In order that some whim of our own may be satisfied, I think upon close sur- vey of our lives, we shall find every thing is sacrificed ahead of self. We sacrifice our homes, our work, our friends, and worst of all we sacri- || fice our children. Personally I abhor all vices ‘of the world, should wish to see them stamped out in the course of a night, for that tion. ry group of people, every betterment of the world and this city. Our country Is overflowing with all sorts and descriptions of wo- men's organizations. They aro all working for some high ideal. They are all doing wonderful work. But in forming these organizations, did we not overlook one little loop-hole, which has grown and expanded un- Ul today, it is so broad and so wide, it is almost unsurmountable? It started innocently enough, the mother joined her first club. That didn't take much time away from home, that was her privilege for every mother is entitled to and needs some time away from the home and its cares, but that wasn’t sufficient, they each and all joined one after another until today in a large part of our American homes, it is not a question of how much time I can give to the organization and not sacrifice my home, but how much time can I spend at home and not sacrifice my duties at the club, Who has felt the brunt of this? | Our. children. ‘They have missed the mothor's presence and attention, and have drifted into a life which holds the most thrills, which unless it. is checked in the near future shall lead on to sorrow. and disgrace to many more young lives, So—as I said before, I repeat again—start the reform in the home, and the world shall be taken care of. But just so long as we spend our time trying to drive out the hardened sinner and neglect the homes, just so long shall we be drifting from the great reform we wish to accomplish, Control and properly train that boy—The man shall be a law abid- ing eltizen, Lose control and stop proper training of that boy—the man shall be a violator of all laws. Control and properly train that wirl—The woman shall be respected and loved by all and a guiding tn fluence in the community, Lose control and stop proper home training of that girl—The woman shall be driven from place to place and trampled into the mire at our very feet.

The invention 1s credited to an’ English bricklayer named Joseph Aspdin and portland cement had been manufactured for almost fifty years In England before tlie industry started in the United States. M Edison entered the portland cement field in 1899 when he established a plant’ in New Jersey. In 1900, he designed a sys- tem of crushing the rock needed at \the plant between giert rolls. His Ne inyéntion enabled him to crush rock up to ten-ton sizes, eliminating the ae breaking up at the quarries. ‘Perhaps Edison's most notable contribution to cement manufacture had to do with improvements in the kilns. A numberof years ago while visiting a plant one day he noticed | the lony sheets of flame issuing from the kilns into the air. At that time forty and sixty foot kilns were in use, Edison saw the possibility of using longer kilns and saving the wasted heat.
