Follow this line of thought, and it is not necessary to inquire r who is the author of evil. Behold him in yourself. This usseau’s theory, his belief and his preachment. This doctrine ‘of personal responsibility conflicts with 1 ideas about the influence of heredity and environment. is a tendency to blame the evil things we do on circum- There stances | ! our control. There is no ‘doubt that natural Jaws of man’s actions, make him more or less of a puppet, but natural laws are not everything.

One is that under present condi- ™ tions the only practical method of reaching tax exempt securi- 3 ties would appear to be through some form of death t The */ other re s that if our states set ont on a campaign of hy competitive tax exemption for the purpose of inviting wealth a to locate within their borders, it is plain that the taxes so A exempted will fall upon someone else, and that ‘someone else’ i will be those who are so wifortunately situated that they are residence and environment at will. Vhatever amounts our people may expend through pub- processes must be collected as ‘taxes from someone, and wealth secures exemption from taxes by going to Florida any other tax-favored locality, then the tax which it avoids must be made up by some othet taxpayer. t “It is plain that the federal government would enact a * reasonable estate or inheritance tax and provide that such tax would be abated to the extent t like tax was levied and collected a state, the probable result would be to promote uot able to change their V lic wh a uniform estate or inheritance tax law in all of the states — closely following the provisions of the federal law. This would appear to be a logical inference since the tax would \ haye; to. be: paid just once, and, each state could decide: for itself whether they retained the tax or let the federal govern- ment have it. Some such program would appear to be the only — practical method of discouraging the several states from in- viting wealth to come within their borders by offers of tax exemption.” A Found System Essential usiness cont indicat of railroad Gros volume of earning frei movement and travel Net income shows degree of pr of railroads themselves. It is highly important that the carriers be prosperous in order to attract new money to create new cilities for moving increased traffic which results from increasing populations. Volume of traffic has been and continues exceedingly large, which indicates prosperity in production and marketing, while the prompt delivery which cau now be relied upon is evidence of increased icy in operation, The margin between profit and loss for railroads is so slight that any unwise rate policy can easily cripple the divi — <dend paying power of a railroad, and thus prevent it from J securing capital for needed extensions and improvements. re) The loss to shippers and travelers from such a policy is — much greater than would ever be occasioned by the granting iW = of adequate rate ang no nen tie, ; Reasons for Reductions Giving reasons for the recent sharp reductions in prices of gasoline the Standard Oil company of New Je says in and 1924 the stocks of gasoline in California increased ron 3,000,000 to more than 20,000,000 barrels, but that it was y recently that the ie at Atlantic ports, coming large y via Panama Canal, had become sufficient to affect price s it is expensive ae y large stocks of gasoline be of ‘loss by evaporation and hence it ix advisable to get the to market early, adding that “no industry in the country Ww ” ‘ea keenly competitive as that of petroleum. sit 4; Demonstration Drive 4iy Thomas P.

They plan — to drive twenty-two hours a day, the car being so equipped that one may sleep while the other drives.

FILENE Paradoxical as it may sound, mass Production will make for a recen- tralization of industry. It will not of necessity throw American industry into the hands of a small group of Industrial bdrons who will hold the entire nation in thelr hands. If the Ford idea of machine pro- duction, quantity output, standardl- zation of product, and service to the consumer were general, the Henry Fords of the future would not neces- sarily own and operate a vast inte. srated industry. They could become simply the coordinators of smaller producers and of parts. Ownersip could be widely spread. We could, in effect. a new and modernized “cottage in- dustry,” that is, to a regime of smaller factories scattered over the country. The real captains of industry of the future would be the great gen- fuses of invention and production who would coordinate the output of scores of factories, each separately owned, and bring to bear upon the get back to has made the Ford success. We shall be able, under a regime ef mass production, to coordinate farming and other pursuits with in- dustry in a manner that wi!l greatly improve the health of vast masses of workmen, stabilize our seasonal industries, and eliminate many of the evils of concentration, Mr. Ford established a yalve plant eighteen miles out in the country so that the men who worked in it could also be farmers. Once bring the blessing of macin- ery to the farm, and the work of the farm can be done in only a part of the time the farmer now gives to it. Farmers can have free a good part «f their time for work in the small factories which the coming decen- tralization of industry can estab- lish in many farming communities: Certainly mass production and mass distribtuion will make possible greater of than we have ever known. Given the established policy of selling a large number of articles at a small profit per article, all things being equal you are assured of a continuous and increasing business. This means you are able to plan production, free from the*‘menace of slack seasons and uncertain demand —free from sporadic and unsclen- tific competition. You do not have an {dle plant on your hands part of the time. This stabilization will not ‘be con- fined to the big manufacturer. The small manufacturer is today World Topics “The U. S. is an outlaw. nation which like an individual outlaw, is one that claims to be above the law ad acts accordingly.” This striking Be ¥ recently made. by Maj. G J. F. O’Ryan, U. 8. army and oe war hero, at the dedication of @ war monu- ment. During the course of the speech he said, “By the dedica- tion of this me- morfal, we would honor the memory of those from this place who lost their lives in the World war, but in view of what they fought for let us resolve to dedicate some of our time and ef- fort to the consummation of this great cause of law and order.and peace in the world. To do this effectively we must think clearly and accurately and refuse to be swayed by prejudice or emotton, “When orderly justice replaces destructive armaments with their heavy doad of taxation and the temptation to utilize them, will gradually be decreased and ulti- mately become negligible. But this cannot be done while any one great power remains outside the re- straints of organized world justice, free to make war when, where and upon whom it pleases, as has been the legal right of governments in the p st. This conclusion is ines- capabl He declared that the world was now organizing for peace, but, b said, “a world organized for peace withe the participation of the United States would resemble “he United States organized as it is under our Constitution and Supreme Court, but with the State of New York free and independent. ‘Do you think that the states which border on New York would rely upon the conscience and good will of our New York people to do right in our relations with our neighbor states and their people, if we were to be unrestrained by the processes and judgments of the Supreme Court of the United States? No, prudence would dic- tate a policy of at least reasonable preparedness to deal with New York b ree if necessary. “With the United States existing in a world which is organizing to substitute law for war, a decision to withhold its membership in the World Court, and its insistence upon carrying out its own policies and decisions, irrespective of the solemn judgment that may be made by the World Court, is a notification to the world that the United States prefers to live under the old order of things—that it will rely upon might and force and war to uphold its claims and pol{pies, rather than upon the enlightened and orderly Pprocesees of justice. There would seem to be no escape from this conclusion. “And if the United States makes that decision by refusal to join the World Court, it forces the other great powers to forego reduction of armament, for obviously they will not do so and leave the United States with the great man power untold resources and capacity for war, free to execute its will upon the rest of the world. “The United States must not play the role of an outlaw nation.

But, once the small manufacturers of the country are working under a big coherent plan, their production will be better keyed to their market and thus sta- bilized. Decentralization will mean better living -conditions for the workers. The stabilization of business means security for labor. And mass pro- duction, with {ts added time and in- come for the workers, will mean so many new demands that the ghost of unemployment will be laid. Above and beyond all the benefits of mass production and mass distri- bution is the economic freedom it will give to the masses, That is the soil in which the so- cial progress of the future will take root.

Gary, president of tha United States Stee] Corporation, is seen in a new role. He is presi- dent of the National Commission for the Suppression of Crime. Gary is an- other prominent }man who was jjreared on a farm. He wi born on his ) father’s farm at | Wheaton, Tilt. nolgs about 75 | years ago. As soon as he was graduated from | Lincoln Mem: } orial University Gary returned to his home town. When he was thirty the people made him president of the village corporation. He served them in that office for three terms. Later, when the population in- creased and the village became a fourth class city, they made him mayor. Before leaving the country at the age of forty he became county judge of Dupage county. At forty he went to Chicago to establish a reputation as a corporation lawyer. A short time later he was retained by the Federal Steel company to ald in organization work. He qualified to such a marked degree that he became president of the company. Then organization of the United State Steel Corporation claimed Gai attention and he also became president. of that body. Judge Gary is also president of the Chicago Bar association and a trustee of Northwestern University. The mill town of Gary, Ind., was! named after him. sp Se Ra Summer By William Cullen Bryant. I gazed upon the glorious sky And the green mountains round, And thought that when I came to He At rest within the ground Twere pleasant that in flowery June, When brooks send up a cheerful tune, And groves a joyous sound, The’ sexton's hand my grave to make, The rich, green mountain.turf should break. A cell within the frozen mold, A coffin borne thru sleet, And icy clouds above it rolled, While fierce the tempests beat— Away! — I will not think of these— Blue be the sky and soft the breeze, Earth green beneath the feet, And be the damp mold gently pressed Into my narrow place of rest. There thru the long long summer hours, The golden Nght should die, And thick young herbs and sroups of flowers Stand in their beauty by. The oriole should build and tell His love-tale close beside my cell; The idle butterfly Should rest him there, and there be heard housewife bee bird The and humming And what if cheerful shouts at noon Come, from the village sent, Or songs of maids, beneath the moon With fairy laughter blent? And what if, in the evening light, Betrothed lovers walk in sight Of my low monument? I would the lovely scene around Might know no eadder sight nor sound, I know that I no more should see The season's glorious show, Nor would its brightness shine for me Nor its wild music flow; But if, around my place of sleep, The friends I love should come to weep, They might not haste to go. Soft airs, and song, and light, and bloom Should keep them lingering by my tomb. These to their softened hearts should bear The thought of what has been, And speak of one who cannot share The gladness of the scene; Whose part in all the pomp that fills The circuit of the summer hills, Is that his grave is green; And deeply would their hearts re- foice To hear again his living voice. ————— One of the great department stores in New York City has provided an interesting {nnovation in the shape of a separate house bullt on the root of the store, where officials of the concern can dine and confer in pleas- an surroundings far from the noise of the street traffic.

I wonder if this story is really in the Bible. After all that has been said about it, how many are positively sure it is in the Bible? Does the Bible really say that Joshua commanded the sun to stand still? How many Christians are sure of this? Wouldn't ft be a joke on thou- sands of Christians to find that Bible doesn’t say any such thing? And then what) would those loud- mouthed scoffers do if they should happen to find out from someone that the Bible makes no such state- ment for someone would have to tell them for they never could find the story on a bet.

Democracy is a household word. This nation has enjoyed political democracy for well nigh two-cen- turies, but for a long period the thought of “Industrial Democracy” was not in all out thinking. Twenty- five and more years ago this new democracy began to be preached by such socially minded men as Walter Rauschenbusck and Harry Ward, and other pronounced advocates un- ti] today democracy in industry is one of industry’s ideals which, in a co-operative spirit. workers and em- ployers are trying to work out into reality, Many years ago the Federal Coun- ceil of Churches of Christ in America adopted the Sunday before Labor Day as Labor Sunday, and year by year urge local congregations to give due observance thereto, and in thou- sands of churches over the country social justice will be preached. The church has no desire to be known as partisan, but to stand out and commend justice and oppose injus- tice as these qualities may become manifest. The pastor will speak at 11 on the subject “Was Christ an Impractical Idealist?” Has He any solution for the {lls of today?

PRISON MURDER 0 BLAMED 10 STATE SOLON Lack Of Employment Is Cause Of Unrest In Oregon Cells. By SUE M'NAMARA, (Copyright, 1925, Consolidated Press Association) - PORTLAND, Ore., Sept. 5.—Blame for the escape of the three convicts frém Oregon state penitentiary and the killing of two guards {s iald upon the shoulders of the Oregon legisla- ture and the people themselves by Will R. King, prominent attorney, who wili defend the convicts Murray, Kelley and Willos, when they go on trial for their lives in October. Attorney King took the case at the request of Murray, youthful leader of the trio, who wired him from prison, Interest in the cese of the three® convicts, who terrorized a large part of the state recently in their sensa- tional attempt for liberty, has been heightened by the announcement. that Will King would defend the men. Mr. King is a national Demo cratic committeeman. He served four years as justice-of the supreme court of Oregon’and in 1912 was selected by President Wilson as one of his head campaign managers, In 1913 he was appointed chief counsel in the department of interior at Washing- ton. Antiquated customs preyailing at Oregon state prison and tolerated by the state legislature are directly re- sponsible for the murder of the two guards shot in the desperate attempt of the three men to escape from in. tolerable confinement and idlenes: says Mr. King. “The prison does not furnish sufficient employment. Half the prisoners are idle all the time. Idle men become restless. Leave a man in prison a year with nothing to do but study meanness and you have a man turned against the world.” The attorney declares the men were not of a murderous type, but that the shooting was the result of “uncivilized conditions in the prison, for which the legislature is respon: sible.” Mr. King has opposed capital pun- ishment for many years, terming it nothing but judicial murder. Stu- dents of criminology agree that cap- ital punishment does not lessen crime,” he states. “The percentage of crime in Oregon has not decreased one bit since hanging was made le- gal. Instead of preventing murders, it increases them.” He deplores the fact that “the Ore- gon government does not seem in- clined to exercise its prerogative of commuting sentences in exception: cases, as is done in other state: “This mercfless policy," he con- tends, “has a tendency to make crim- inals more desperate in their efforts to escape, Knowing there is no hope. After commiting a capital offense, they commit others in a frantic ef- fort for self-preservaiton.” — 150 KILLED BY BLAST TOKYO, Sept. 5. — One hundred and fifty persons were killed in an explosion at the Telhaku Coal Mine near Pingyang, Korea, dispatches to the Nippo Tiji_ received here sal REY. .
