Dawes hopes to maintain his rep- utation and his place as national idol he will have to be on the job. It m be that the is not deeply enamored of his vice presidential job, and he may think that presiding over the dreary proceedings of the senate affords no kick to a man of action; but at the same time he is to blame for the failure of confirmation of Charles B. Warren as attorney general of the United States, by not being on duty, As good a soldier as he has been, as important a business factor as he has been in the nation, and as outstanding a fig- ure as he showed himself to be in rescuing Durope from finan- cial and diplomatic chaos, he did not accomplish these things by neglecting his job. —_ If the general has come to the point in his career where only the big things of the world hold interest for him, he had better turn back and learn that the big things depend alto- gether upon the many small ones. The general slipped back a long s in public esteem when he failed the president, the Republican party and the nation for that matter, and permitted the Dem 8 and in- surgents to humiliate the administration, of which he is a part, by his absence from the senate chamber when his yote ded to turn the tide the other way. is sort of thing is not in keeping with what the people have believed to be the Dawes character. The general should turn back ancestor who rode to Lexington wv the value of promptness. It is rec: Dawes was on the dot. The Salary Grab There’s just this about that congressional salary grab. If the present members intend it as an inducement and encour- agement for better men to stand for congress, then it can be looked upon a proper act, but if the increase is to be used to perpetuate the present membership, then it is obtaining money under false pretenses. ‘There are very few members of congress worth ten thousand dollars a year to the people of the United States, or worth that sum to anybody else. The body is notoriously full of misfits, who could be chosen under uo other than a primary system of nomination. The one fear in regard to the increase in sa ary is that the additional $2,500 will serve to attract a worsé breed than the one with which we are afflicted at present. The fact about the lower branch of congress is that it contains altogether too many members. The number ought to be reduced by half through raising the basis of apportion- ment. Four hundred thirty-five members makes too large a body. It is unwieldy. And another thing a lesser number of members would bring about, would be to increase the value of membership and also increase the standard of aspirants to membership, And to say the least, anything that will improve the qual- ity of membership ought to be the first consideration of the people. few generations to the h Paul Revere, and Jéarn orded that that particular >. rocrastination Is there any good reason for a considerable number of the people required to make income tax returis, putting off the performance until virtually the last minute? We do not think there is. We believe that the vast majority of those who muke their reports and pay their income taxes will‘say with- the slightest reservation that there is very little excuse for the common delay that eve year causes igestion and Produces a rsh “to get “under the wire” at the last minute. Most ¢ assenting to this found their judgment on their own cases and they are to be counted among the pro: crastinators It may be said without fear of successful contradiction, W« think, that « > proportion of those legally bound to make income tax returns could make them within a day or two of receipt of the blank forms. There is nothing “hanging fire” in the lives of most of us from one day to another. The ma jority could balance their books every night if they would. On the first day of every year they could, if they chose to do so calculate in a very few minutes precisely w amount of money they received in the preceding twelve-month and exactly what deductions from income they were privileged to make to uscertain their income tax liability. Why don't they do it and avoid the trouble of rushin return they might have file: when March 1 weeks before? nears to make the Procrastination a national vive, probably a universal vice. That's all there is to be said in explanation of most of the delayed income tax reports. Some time, perhaps, collectors will take cognizance of it to the extent of refusing to keep their offices open “after hours.” Gee Whizz! Women are to be more artistically decorated this spring than ever before, according to the woman bedutifiers. In ad- dition to the coloring that prevails, fashion will demand red- dened cars and nostrils, eyelids painted blue or brown and curled eyelashes. During the day one frost-bitten ear will be shown, but in the evening both ears will be presented to full view, the lobes painted a*bright red. And skirts will be shorter, The more timid women will content themselves by cutting these garments off at the knee. Accompanying these forecasts is the rather startling statement that women are yoing to ‘these ex- tremes because masculine taste ists on them and that no woman ¢an hope to be considere active unless she accepts the newer fashions. Wile the utifiers were expressing themselves in this way an Oxford pr sor was describing the contents of vanity ¢ recently found in the tombs of Sum merian women who h been dead 3,000 years. The vanity cases of t y contained the same implements as those in the vanity cases that the wonien of today carry, Evidently the Summerian women found their men as exacting as women to day find theirs. It Means Toil Who are the workingmen in America? Not exclusively, by any means, those who labor with their hands, Few men haye risen to places of prominence in industrial leadership ex- cept at the price of prodigious toil.

This widespread distribution con- clusively answers the statement that the railways are owned by a few persons. To an extent not generally recognized, the railways are owned by the public. The subject comes home to every household when it is considered that life insurance policy holders and savings bank depositors are partners In the operation and de- velopment of our railways. Another Tax Cut It_iz more than Mkely that the ome taxes pata by the people of nation will be cut next year. result can be accomplished if the suggestions of President Cool- idge to Congress and the heads of the different departments of the federal government are carried out to the fullest extent. It would mean that the income tax rates now in | force would be cut at least 25 per cent for next year, by a bill which will be introduced at the early part of the next session of: Congress. President Coolidge has had several conferences with Representative Martin Madden, chairman of the ap- propriations committee in -the house, in regard tc the matter and Madden {s confident that if Con- gress wil back up the president the cut in"income taxes for next year can be accomplished. An interesting eide-light into the matter of appropriations this year in that by heeding the president's disrections, appropriations $8,000,- 000 below the budget's estimates, Were \ passed at the last session of the 68th Congress; put in plain lan- guage, this means that even with the figures of the budget taken as a basis, Congress, at the direction of the president, has saved $8,000,000 more of the tax-payers money than was hoped for at the beginning of the session. It {s also of interest to note that during the past four years Congress has spent $350,000,- 000 less than was proposed. At the next session of Congress, Madden wil call up his resolution which would result {a making in- come taxes automatic. This plan would mean that when the Treasury had a surplus of over $50,000,000 a proportionate automatic decrease would be made in everyone's income tax. It {s known that President Coolidge has for some time been having an extensive survey of gov- ernmnt financial conditions made, as he ia determined not only to save the tax-payers’ money but to cut off all needless expenditures; all of promise to the people that whenever possible federal taxes would be low- ered. "PRING BRINGS. AUTO GLEANING In the spring’an automobile own: | er’s fancy tu ‘0 cleaning up the | old bus. During the remainder of | year the color of the car may be | unrecognizable but scmehow the bright sunshine and the clean breezes form a kind of tonic that gets into an automobile owner's blood and urges lilm to clean up the car, if for no other reason than to be in harmony with the spirit of the reason. The results of such manual labor are often real gratifying, in fact, in- spire a kind of pride of ownership year. But if the car chances to be a | couple of years old, there are some | tell-tale marks that reveal age. | It was because of the fact that | rain and sunshine will form rust most metals that the engineers of the Chervolet Motor company set to work to find a type of metal that would not rust. The results of their experiments along this line are embodied in the new Chevrolet—in an airplane metal radiator shell, which is non-rustng because of the composition of the metal used and has all the beauty of nickel. Like the Duco finish on this car, this radiator shell actually im- proves in lustre with rubbing and age. There is no possibility of rubbing through the coating because th whole shell'is made of the same ma- terial. on ———— ODD FELLOWS PLAN TO AT MIDWEST SATURDAY A new lodge of the Independent Order: of Odd Fellows, !s to be in- stituted at Midwest, Wyoming, on the aftérnoon and night Saturday, March 28, 1926.
