It is possible to have in this republic quite as complete a revolution, from a social and economic standpoint, as Russia has undergone, without the shedding of a drop of blood. It may be accomplished threugh the ballot. Enough people, in a moment of passion and error, may be led to so revolutionize the official personnel of their government by the ‘ballot, as to open the way for the introduction of the spirit of communism into our national législation and administration. At the last general election five million Americans yoted in favor of the program of state socialism. They voted for the removal of the constitutional barriers against. destructiv- ism. They voted to destroy the supreme court’s power to in- yoke the guarantees of our federal constitution against. legis. lation. out of harmony with American traditions. The battle against radicalism, because of a combination of circumstances, was fought under more favorable conditions than may pre: yail at some future time. i Two years hence destructive radicalism will renew the effort to emasculate the constitution and push our governihent fpr- ther toward the goal of state socialism. Indeed, the radicals are not awaiting the beginning of the next national campaign to inaugurate their propaganda. It was begun the day after the last national election, and it is being continued, by direct and indirect methods, in the open and under camouflage, with # zeal and ability worthy of a better cause. Shadow in the Water The propriety of the United States is threatened: Tirst, by excessive importations of foreign products under a tariff law denounced as prohibitive, but which in- many schedules is insufficient to cover the difference in cost of pro- duction, chiefly labor costs, at home and abroad, and sthere- fore insufficient to prevent the slowing down or closing of not a few American industrial plants. Second, by excessive attention to foreign, as compared to.do- mestic financial and trade needs, by American financiers, re- ar ing in an export of gold which is producing a Jop-sided de- ation, Within reason imports. of commodities and exports of gold are helpful rather than harmfal to American prosperity. Beyond that point they may become a menace. : Any serious interruption of business and employment in the United States would bring political as well as economic consequences of a grave character. The case of the dog who dropped the meat in his mouth to jump after the alluring re- flection in the stream is well worth keeping in mind by those Americans who seek to make the world their parish fi- nancially and commercially. “Be Loyal” From a little pamphlet published at regular intervals in the interest of the local Methodist church, we find an appeal to residents of the city to join in the Christian work of. the local churches. The article in question displays no selfish purpose. If not one church, then anpther, but some church. That is the sentiment, expressed. This is not only good for Casper churches, it is good doctrine applied to business and all other Casper activities, For the good it may do the article is pass- ed on to you and your friends: “Tt is only fair to the merchants who live in our city to patronize them instead of the mail order houses. When we want a favor for our church or city we do not solicit the mail order houses or if we do they do not respond. It is our local busi- ness men that help maintain the public affairs and churches. They deserye our support. ‘Likewise it is our local churches that maintain religious give Christian training to the people of our city. ant ywever much you may love that little home church “Back st” or “Down South” where your membership has been for ars, that church cannot y on its work in our city of Casper, The Casper churches must do that. -Eyery citizen of Casper owes allegiance to the churches of Casper. “You should transfer your membership from the churches out. of town to the churches of this city. % “You may think you will be loyal to the Casper church when rour membership is elsewhere, but you will not. When you join a Casper church you will naturally take a greater in- terest in that church. “Be loyal to Casper. Send for your church letter and unite with a church here. If you are inclined to onr church, we welcome you. If to another, join that one, but get into some Casper church and work and pray and live for Christ here in ( asper. 4 Conservatism and Radicalism Constructive sentiment can be created only by an appeal to intelligence. The citizen must be taught to comprehend and ap- preciate his country and its institutions. This involves defi- nite and persistent effort. Despite the fact that radicalism is more easily propagated, people who think constructively gre less active in convincing others than are the destructive political elements. Hither through fanaticism or the ambition for power these destructive elements are ceaselessly busy, They are better organized, better financed and far more practical and persistent’ in their effort to control public opinion than are the constructive ele- ments, Conservatives are too often conservative in their inethods as well as in their way of thinking: If True Why Worry? f y could not cross the Pacific and successfully wage eral Mitchell in defending his air-service ideas, rase, it must be equally true that the smaller yanese navy could not cross the Pacific and successfully ige war, Is not that about as near to an ideal situation as we could get?

By DAVID LAWRENCE. (Copyright, 1925, Consolidated Press Association.) * WASHINGTON, Feb. 25.—Chairman Green of the house ways and means committee, has let the cat out of the bag. He has revealed the fact that a considerable surplus over expenditures will be available this year and that an- other downward revision in taxes will be possible. The administration did not intend to have that disclosed now.

Also it was said that the $68,000,000 surplus afforded too narrow a margain on which \to bare a reduction this year, Every day evidence accumulates that the treasury’s figures have, as usual, been too conservative. Chairman Green thinks so. But Mr, Green losed another and per- haps more controlling reason for the postponement of tax revision. He says the next tax cut will be in the higher surtax rates. The treasury has been striving to accomplish that right along. Its theory has been that the small taxpayer got his In the last revenue act and that the large taxpayer now should have:a cut in order that business may be given further stimulus and revenue re- celpts increased to such an extent as to permit in future years another cut for the small taxpayer. Secre- tary Mellon has insisted from the outset that the proper way to reduce the tax burden to everybody was to make more rich men pay taxes and the way to do that was to encour- age the use of capital in taxat terprises instead of tax free { ments, If congress can be prevailed upon to cut the high surtaxes, Mr. Mel- lon will retire from office ultimately The ORIGINAL Malted.
