Reg Take Heed of Wisdom A favorable report has just been made by a committee of the house of representatives at Washington of a bill that would compel judges to give jail sentences for every conviction of violating the Volstead act, great or small; that would leave no discretion to the court once the person had been found guilty of fracturing even the least splinter of that structure; that would allow no fines however great or small. Let us see to what the proposal would lead, were it fin ally to become law. Under such a provision a person must he j if found guilty of carrying-on his person a sin ounce of liquor o containing over half of one cent of alcohol. He must be jail ed for carrying in a hand-bag to a friendly din ner alcholic beverages of his own bought leg: before prohibition. He must be jailed for c ing in his automobile a phial of wine for a s friend. Ile must be jailed for transporting liquor that he has legally purchased at a druggist’s on r’s prescription. He must be jailed for home-brewed beer of any sort having » than the Volstead standard of alchol. We do not say that he always would be, but he could be, and if nvicted of any one of the acts we have mentioned, he must be. And the extent to which fanatical prosecution might go no man knoweth. But into the midst of this heated and controver- sial matter comes the cool, calm influence of wis dom and courage in a high place. It proceeds from Calvin Coolidge, now residing, by the over- whelming wish of his countrymen, in the White House. He has given it to be understood that he does not look with favor upon any such extreme legislation as this. Then he feels that there is a vast difference between smuggling and selling liquor in pertinacious and continued violation of the law for profit and the carrying of a few ounces of Scotch in the pocket. That running a big bootlegging still for the money in it is quite a larger offence than making a gallon or two of hoine brew for home consumption. The infer- ence is permitted that he would veto this Stalker bill that would send every offender to jail, the inoffensive and unintentional, along with the im- pudent and the wholesale. He will De right in so doing, if the measure ever reaches him, which, since his powerful influence is thrown against it, may now he doubted. ¢ One thing the extremists who have put forward such a proposition fail to realize, and that is that, if in operation, it would greatly weaken the enforcement of the Volstead act itself. When you make penalities over-drastic, you by so much increase the difficulties of conviction, We stili have jury trials for offences against the prohibi tion laws, and if juries found that every man brought before them must go to jail, no matter how trivial his offending, they would acquit more often than now even, and the whole system would iled suffer. The president realizes that we have law nough now to take care of the real offenders against prohibition. He knows that the new prop osition is a distinct slur upon our judges who are given discretion to differentiate between kinds of offending, and may be relied upon to exercise it. In a word, he feels that extrem ) not cure, ind he doe: » try them. We believe that the great d fair opinion of the country will rree with hin The Strength of Fascism the Italian Chamber in and again by roll Mussolini's strength has heen demonstrated in ealls. On Friday he hac votes to 33 for the Giolitti-Orlando opposition. ‘The so-called Aven tine absentees remained uncounted. The present chamber is and will continue to be overwhelming. ly Fascist What most Rome ‘dispatches fail to tell us bont is the economic and popular support be hind the Mussolini government. Some recent dis patches point out that the backbone of Fascism i he small farmer and land owner in middle and northern Italy. This powerful class has tur nished the bulk of the recruits to the militia and a large part of the moral energy which sustains the new regimes These sm Italian farmers lave prospered greatly since the war. They are order and reconstruction and against social sm and communism. Fascism » has the back of the new labor unions, composed chiefly of nmercial employes, professional workers ind unskilled laborers, The old unions of’ spe cailized workers are neutral or inclined toward cialism., The new unions were organized with iden of reducing strikes, But recently some of them haye been involved in the Cararra marble strikes and this action has caused fric tion with the National Employers association, which had previously co-operated actively with Mussolini lhere are very few Fascists in southern Italy the seat of the party's power is from Rome north Venice aud Piedmont, But Fascism, as a prc Sy test against disintegration and disorder, has been linked in the last two years with the revived nationalist sentiment of the country. It has ac- quired a broadly constructive creed and can show extraordinary practical results in the fields of government administration, finance and eco- . Italy has come back with a rush in the last two years, thanks to the Fascist program. The movement is bigger than any one man or group of men. If Mussolini should retire, as he has often said that he hopes to do, the party would still live on. It would be numerically the strongest single party in the kingdom. It has fer- vor and unity, while the minor groups have little or nothing in common. Not individual ambition but economic forces and nationalist theories have made Fascism strong. Its influence, whether it surrenders power for a time or not, will prob- ably continue to dominate Italian politics. False Glory of Dollars A wise man has raised his voice in potest against the manner in which Americans indicate their worship of success—success measured by financial standards alone. Yet the fact remains that the average American of today has little rev- erence for the dollar itself. The Americans glow chievement and while it is true, that much achievement is summed up by a mass of it is not the gold that commands the en- thusiasm., The Americans will express more regard for some wholesome athlete who can swat the ball with regularity than they will for the Napojeon who can pile up a bunch of millions by making a new brand of shaving soap. There is quite a teeling that Henry Ford has accomplished some- thing, but it does not rest upon the circum stance that he has possibly become the world’s richest man. It lies rather on the fact that his genius for organization has put forth so vast a mber of his cars for so little money. Like- wise Rockefeller may have once been famous for his wealth, but he was never worshiped on that account. Now he is genuinely revered through the organization which is inspired by him and which is so nobly warring against disease. If the average man is asked to make out a list of twenty of the best beloved or most admired Americans today it will be found to have mighty few millionaires in its composition and not one of those will have his standing measured by his mil ions. The Americans are not salves to the dollar —at least not to the extent of excluding other ties and interests, , Don’t Hurry “Twenty years or so of waiting has not given us a policy on the Isle of Pines, and a little long er now cannot hurt,” says the Chicago Tribune. “What the law of the matter may be or the agree ments entered into by our dimplomats have yet to be determined, but the rights involved gener- ally spe: ure clear, “Spain’s possessions in the West Indies were given up through force of American arms, Cuba herself and her appendages must base title to freedom only on America’s volition in entering war with Spain, and what this country may re- tain from those conquests can hardly have a less- er justification than what Cuba has herself. “The Isle of Pines is largely the private prop: erty of Americans, and there will be American interests there worth nearly $25,000,000, if not an actual majority of its population, placed under a foreign flag by giving it to Cuba. The island is one air hop from Key West on the way to Panama and Mexico. Jt is more than likely that it will be of value as a base in any future war where air power is significant. ‘Islands are islands these days, and with Hel- goland and Guam as said examples America can ill afford to give up carelessly what we may need later, Future war and its methods is un- predictable. We cannot know what value the Isle of Pines may have. Cuba herself may find secur- suggest, go slow about giving up the Isle of Pines.” Art of Amusing We were taught by philosphers once,upon a time that the aim of life was to discover the truth. Philosophers of a more modern school have told us that happiness is worth while, be- ing sought only when, in seeking it, the seeker renders others happy: But what about this straight business of plea- sure that most persons nowadays go into with so much abandon? There is no attempt made to} conceal the occupation. Newspapers are more | than half filled with cross word puzzles, radi information, theatrical news, “comics, features in general, and all designed to give pleasure to the newspaper reader. Thus, the work of those who make the papers becomes the pleasure of those who read them, Authors produce books for the son that to write them is pleasure, but does it give them more pleasure than it gives those who read the books? Baseball players are paid} high salaries for doing, as work, what many a bey or man does gladly on his day off. Theatrical | folk, with their lives wrapped up in a world of | make believe, are thought by many honest folk |} to be the happiest of mortals. If they: are not, then why are they not? Their admirers would like to know | _Eyery man who works has the ambition to do | that which he loves best to do. That is the ideal situation of the working man. If it gives pleasure also to others, regardless of how important or unimportant in itself the work may be, he is ful- filling his mission on earth, according to the old philosophers, Not Reliable | Emma Goldman's violent criticisms of Russia and “Big Bill” Haywood’s more recent statement that Leavenworth prison was preferable to Wol-| shevik Russia are still being quoted by speakers and writers who desire to denounce Moscow and | all its works. Yet it would seem more logical | to quote from disillusioned liberals than from | the words of two famous anarchists. When they were denouncing our instiutions, public sentiment here was almost unanimously of the opinion that they did not know what they ilking about. But when they say that Rus sia is unendurable, they are accepted as author ities, It is illogical because, as bonest anarchists, they think that all governments are unendurable, It makes little difference whether it is demo- cratic America or Bolshevik Russia, republican France or despotite Spain. There are plenty of witnesses against Russia whose words ring true, There is no lack of testi- mony to prove that hardly one in a thousand Americans could endure life in Russia.
