Register compiaints before 8 a ad Wants Freak Law Somebody is eternally starting something. Us- 1ally something he cannot get away with. More frequently, than otherwise, something regulatory of the other fellow’s personal habits and inclina tions. Here is an Omaha doctor desiring the Ne- braska legislature to pass an act abolishing all marriage contracts between couples who have de- liberately avoided parenthood for more than two years after marriage. This gentleman fathering this proposal bears the name of A. S. Pinto. How his parents came to leave the other S out of his Christian names when they christened him is not explained by his friends, but it certainly belongs there, and the ensemble is ideal. Down in the corn belt the people are indus- triously discussing the subject. But so far no one has informed this advocate of novelties in the marriage relation of just what he is up against before he can get his law through the leg- islature and get it enforced even if the freak bill should fall into the hands of a freak bunch of law makers. There is the constitution of the state of Ne- braska standing solemnly in the way of such fads. And there is the constitution of the Unit- ed States of American standing even more sol- emnly against fool’ interference of such char- acter. Aside from all this there is public opinion which now believes that the institution of mar- riage is already held in too light esteem for the good of society, without providing other means to cheapen it and bring it into further disrepute. It is easily understandable why Dr. Pinto de- questions which we have not voluntarily submit. ted. for its judgment. In the message as a whole, there is as much significance in the order in which the president by took up the various subjects ag there is in the| visions increased #0 every instan: manner in which he discussed them. during the. 10 montha ended | Fable for Builders ayes!

Demestic Problems Paramount When studied in each of its details the presi- dent’s message proves to be a masterful presen- tation of the state of the union and the policies which will promote its continued well béing. Not merely from the Republican but from. the opposition press as well, there has come a very cordial commendation of almost every feature of the message. Relatively brief though it is, it is surprisingly comprehensive and contains instruc- tive information on practically every topic of cur- rent public discussion. Holding it off at arm’s length, as it were, and getting the perspective which enables one to look at the message as a whole, there are some strik- ing characteristics. Persumably the president took up the various branches of his message in the order of what he considered to be their rela- tive importance. National finances came first. Thus it is made at once apparent tliat he con- sidered purely domestic problems as of para- mount importance. Reduction of expenditures, through economy as a necessary preliminary to further tax reduction, emphasized, and with the same courage and straightforwardness which he has manifested in the past he assailed the un- sound policy which some tax legislators have ad- vocated. He said, for instance: “The fallacy of the claim that the costs of gov- ernment are borne by the rich and those who niake a direct contribution to the national treas- ury can not be too often exposed. No system has been devised, I don’t think any system could be devised, under which any person living in this country could escape being affected by the cost of our government. It has a direct effect both up- on the r and the purchasing power of wages. It is felt in the prices of those prime necessities of existence food, clothing, fuel and shelter.” On that as a basis he reiterated his previous opinion that: “The larger incomes of the country vould actually yield more revenue to the gov- ernment if the basis of taxation were scientifi- cally revised downward.” At the same time that he is advocating econ- omy and reduction of taxes he does not go to the extreme of urging a policy that would amount to neglect of development of our resources. He men- tions particularly such porjects as improved nay igation from the Great Lakes to the Gulf and through the St. Lawrence to the Atlantic, and the completion of our reclamation projcets. Aid to agriculture, the utilization of the power at Mus- cle Shoals, the removal of some minor defects in our transportation law, and the problem of placing the shipping board on a more practical working basis are subjects next in order, all of them of purely domestic concern. That he is satisfied that our foreign relations are not a likely source of concern is indicated by the fact that these are taken up late in his mes- sage. He took occasion to remove any doubt that might have arisen in the minds of any as to our attitude toward the league by asserting once more that this try “is not disposed to become a member of the league of nations or to assume the obligations imposed by its covenant,” and he repeats his earlier recommendation in favor of adherence to #2c protocol establishing the inter- national court, with reservations assuring that this country will not be bound by advisory opin- ions which may be rendered by the court upon ’ to call at this bank for your 1925 Calendar advances are being made tn aerial] The crying need of American terre cae —Salamanca, N.
