EE, Why: Science Rules Some readers have taken exception to the answer to the question, “What Knowledge is the Most Worth,” the answer was “Science.” These declare the better answer is “The knowledge that every good act is rewarded, and every bad one punished.” The further reply is, “No subject teaches this lesson so well as Science.” Herbert Spencer defines science as knowledge reduced to law and embodied in system. It is the law that nature enforces, and there can be no violations without certain punishment from a court where money and alienists and lawyers and more alienists ‘avail nothing. - Spencer continues: That for direct self-preseryation, or the maintenance of Jife and health, the most important know- ledge is—Science. “For the indirect self-preservation which we call liveli- hood, the knowledge of the greatest value is—Science. “For the due discharge of parental functions, the proper guidance is to be found only in—Science. “For the interpretation of national life, past and present, without which the citizen cannot rightly regulate his conduct, the indispensable key is—Science. “Alike for the most perfect production and highest enjoy- ment of art in all its forms, the needful preparation is still— Science. “And for the purposes of discipline—intellectual, moral, religious—the most efficient study is once more—Science.” No need to teach the young the value of good conduct if they take to heart the lessons of science. Equally at present and the remotest future, must real science, accepting nothing by blind faith, be of incalculable importance for the regulation of their conduct, that men should understand the science of life, physical, mental and social; and that they should understand all other science as a key to the science of life. Natural Diffusion of Wealth The existing situation illustrates that the whole world is becoming a common field for enterprise and investment, with a strong tendency for capital to go where it is most needed. It is a wholesome tendency, for where it is most needed is where it will produce the largest results, and in the long-run the whole world will benefit by having a normal equilibrium restored. It is an economic truism that the benefits of capital accu- mulations are not confined to the owners, and the present situation shows that the natural diffusion is not limited by national boundaries. It is true of nations as of individuals that they cannot hold increasing wealth to tliemselyes; there is a principle of di:eribution which will haye its way. Our efforts to collect the government debts in most instances, will work out that we will lend in the public market what is paid to the treasury, and that the debtor countries will have the use of it as long as it is worth more to them than it is to us. The doubts which are prevalent about the prompt and complete performance of the reparation compact by Germany are due to a belief among economists that it will be first nec- essary to completely restore the scarcity of working capital in Germany which is evidenced by the present high interest rates. In other words, the debtor countries must be made prosperous before they can pay their debts. The modern world is too intimately related for it to be possible to make a poor country poorer and have its neighbors gain anything thereby, and this of course applies to debt-pay- ments as well as reparations. There could be no more effective demonstration of the in- sensate folly of war, and of all efforts of nations to inflict injuries upon each other, than is afforded by the efforts to collect reparations and debts Coolidge On Protection In his address to the New York State Chamber of Com merce, Mr. Coolidge said little about protective tariff, but what he did say was pertinent d he said it in eharacteristic language. The tariff and the effects of tariff protection, not only on the people of the United States, but of the world at large, he outlined as follows: “Tt has sought to stimulate domestic production by a mod- erate application of the system of Protective Tariff duties. The results of these efforts are known to all the world. * * * By these wise policies, pursued with tremendous economic effort, our country has reached its pres¢nt prosperous condi- tion. The people have been willing to work because they have had something to work for. The per capita production has greatly increased. * * * Every one knows that it was our resources that saved Europe from a complete collapse immediately following the mistice. Without the benefit of our credit an appalling famine would have prevailed over great areas. * * * It is notorious that where the Government is bad, busi- ness is bad. * * * Tn 1920 wages were about 100 per cent above the pre-war rates and the average wholesale price of commodities was about 120 per cent above the pre-war rates. “A steady i in the wage index took place, so t during the 3 Was 120 per cent above the pre-war rate, As the cost of our production is so largely a matter of wages, and as tax returns show that for the last year profits were ample, it would natu- rally have been expected that the prices of commodities would have increased. Yet during this period the average wholesale price level of commodities declined from 120 per cent above the ir level that it was in 1920 to only 57 per cent above the pre-war level in 1 Thus, as a result of greatgr econ and effic ind the elimination of waste in the con duct of the National Government and of the business of the country, prices went down, while wages went up. The wage earner receives more, While the dollar of the consumer will purchase more. The significance und importance of this re sult cannot be overestimated Here we have use and effect protective tariff. The ef United States and the large, omy ney, Che cause- t—abundant pr resultant an adequate sperity. to. the to the world at helpfulness Mr. Hull Admits Criticising the government for consenting to scale down the Italian debt to an “amount which the Italian people will be able to pay with.ut bahkrupting themselves, Congr: man Cordell Hull of Tennessee ad- mitted that protection has como to stay. This {s a portion of his state- ment: “Our existing high tariff law vir- tually eliminates the factor of pay- ment in goods by Italy.» The new policy which this sett!ement -pro- poses, therefore, {s that a an alter- native of cutting our extortionate high tariff to a moderate extent or cutting our foreign debts to a corre: spondingly greater extent we adopt the latter course.” We are glad to se’ that Repre- sentative Hull has seen the light and is frank enough to acknowledge that the tariff will be mdintained. That being the case, he had better cease his attacks on the settled policy of the United States and turn his attention in directions where he undoubtedly can do» good. There 1s one thing in the state ment quoted to which we take ser!- ous exception, and that his char- acterization of the present. law, as “extortionate high tariff’. It 1s nothing of the kind. It is the very thing which he seems to favor, a ‘moderate” tariff. According to the annual report of the bureau of for- eign and domestic commerce of the United States for the year 1924 the average ad valorem rate of duty on all imports during that year was 15.24 per cent. All will concede that {s not an “extortionate” rate. The average rate on the dutiable imports alone amounted to 37.39 per cent, or only 4 per cent more than the dutios imposed under the “Safeguarding of Industries" measure of “free trade Britain.” The British rate 1s 33 1:3 per cent. An American free trader {s always more interested in building up for- eign industry and prosperity than in maintaining those of his own country. On the other hand, the alm of protectionists is to- main- tain domestic industry, domestic em- ployment and domestic prosperity. When the question first arose, pro- tectionists said that if it were a question of forgiving all of the European war debts or of bankrupt- ing the producers. emp'oyers and employes, of the United States by abolishing or lowering the tariff be- low the protective point then by all means we should forgive the debts. " Canceling a portion of the foreign debts will make it harder for our people for a time -but that will be nothing to what they would suffer under what would be. practically, a free trade tariff, that is, one that would let in a flood of foreign prod- ucts and result in ruining domestic productive industry and dooming millions to idleness and suffering. If the choice of the commissioners representing our government was between cancelling a portion of the Italian debt or adopting a nan-pro- tective tariff policy, then they chose wisely, Misleading Reference Editor Tribun: Your paper of November 1§ contained a misleading reference to the teachings of Chris: an Science, and’ I ask’ the courtesy of your columns for a statement concerning it. It is true that Christian Science does not recognize “sin, pain, or matter” as real, but it is also true that it does not fall to recognize thelg part in the experience of mortals. Christian Sclence doeg not ignore evil, but teaches how even its most subtle forms may be brought to light and overcome through the understanding of God and His {mmutable law of harmony. ‘To understand what’ Christian Scl- ence teaches regarding the unreality of “sin, pain, or matter,” necess!- tates an acceptance of the correct meaning of “reality,” as used: by Mrs. Eddy, the “Discoverer and Founder” of ~ Christian Sclence. Webster defines “reality” as “actual being Sor existence, in distinction trom mere appearance. In_ perfect accord with this, Mrs, Eddy says in her textbook, “Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures,» page 335: “Reality is spiritual, har- monious, immutable, immortal, dl- vine, eternal;” adding further on in the same book: “All reality is in God and His creation, harmonious and eternal, That which He creates is good, and He makes all, that is made, Therefore the only reality of sin, sickness, or death is the awful fact that unrealitles seem real to human, erring belief, until God strips off thelr disguise. They are because they are not. of e 472). One of the five 1 senses testifies ‘that the 6 of a railroad ~ track» converge in the distance. All of them testify that sin and pain and matter are real, The testimony {n the second case {s no moré reliable than in the first. The Scriptures teach us that God created all things and saw that His creation was good. It was Christ Jesus who sald, “It fs the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing.” To. charge God with having created the flesh, which “profiteth nothing,” and its” con- comitants, sin and pain, is unthink- able, Many have been the preachments against Christian Science, but \they who indulge in them “imagine a vain thing,” (Psalms 2:1). For many years ts opponents have endeavored by “their much speaking” (Matt. Finds Way to Stop | Stomach Souring Glendale, N, Y. Mrs. Catherine Leyndecker writes:—For weeks | and weeks, whatever I would eat | formed gas and acid in my stom- ach and made mo feel miserable. Why, the acid would actually rise ht «into §=omy mouth At a friend's udyice I took Carter’s Lit- | tle Liver Pills and not val has the sour stomach stopped ut I am no longer constipated, my ap- petite has improved 100 per cent and I feel years younger.’ Carter’s Little Liver Pills re- lieve the constipated condition by sleansing the intestines of their waste matter.

Now comes one speaking of it as “noth- Ing” while pretending to refrain from speaking at all. Christian Sci- ence, with its remarkable success {n regenerating and healing mgnkind. can neither be talked into oblivion nor waved aside as nothing. Neither audible criticism nor cold, disdain- ful silence can hinder its stately operations and accomp'ishments. CLYDE JOHNSO) Christian Sclence+Committee on Publication for Wyoming: Sheridan, Wyoming. Dawes, Senate and Taxes Certain’ foreshadowed events at Washington remind us of the truth of William Gowper’s famillar obser- vation, originally made more than a hundred and fifty years ago, that “God moves,in a mysterfous way, His wonders to perform.” It will be recalled that General Charles G. Dawes does not relish the Senate rules on debate, which he characterized, on the day of his inauguration as Vice ‘President, as out-of-date, obstructive and ridicu- lous. “The storm aroused by this brusque charge has not yet subsided, nor does General Dawes intend that it shall subside. He hag campaign- ed through fifteen states in support of his rules-reform crusade, and lately declared that he might make several appearances in each of the remaining states before relinquish- ing his active Interest in the subject. "The peopla will have their eyes and ears glued in the direction of Washington. They will not stand for any unreasonable delay in the upper chamber. They want the tax- reduction program to become effect- ive before the first 1926 income-tax installment {s due on March 15. They will take ng excuses from the senate, and the senate will find itself pecu- larly embarrassed if it ylelds to the temptation, to be dilatory, because the more dilatory it is the more ammunition it will provide fof Gen- era] Dawes in his fight for a change in the senate rules. Thus either one of two things is llkely to happen—elther the Vice President's hands will be greatly strengthened by the proof afforded by the senate itself of the unwield- iness of its cherished rules. or else the people will find the upper houre extraordinarily amenable to their will. Either General Dawes will achieve a new popularity in the land or else tax reduction will go through the upper chamber with a most agreeable celerity. In that case William Cowper's ptophecy will be strikingly fulfilled for the benefit of the burdened millions of Ameri- can taxpayers: Quality of Mercy “The quall of merey as strained by Governor Ma Ferguson. falls rather more heavily than the gentle summer rain,” notes the Boston Transcript. ‘Nor does it, technical- ly speaking, fall from heaven—it has its faucet in the Executive Man- sion at Austin and has been turned on good and plenty. On Wednesday, in good time for Thanksgiving Day, she came out with a burst of 15 pardons, bringing her record In mer- cy up to the neat total of 1,126. One {s driven to the conclusion that there asper Daily Cribune must be a good deal of crime In the Lone Star State, or that its courts do not know their business or that Mrs. Ferguson, now reigning as gov- ernor with her Jim as unofficial con- sort in that office, is having a real good time being merciful. “The feeling in Texas on this sub- ject, as it should be, is a good deal more serlous and expresses itself in the statement that the next govern- or must be a man and that Mrs, Fer- guson’s election has hurt the reputa- tion.of the.State. “Me for Ma," as a campaign battle cry, describes its- elf sufficiently well and needs ‘no further comment. The other end of this old-folks-at-home way of decid- ing a state election {s that today Tex, ans say that her excellency has been @ failure, but we speak now of. her specific action in the matter of par- dons. She was inaugurated on Jan- uary 20, which gives an average. of a shade over 112 pardons per month, Granting, as we must in fairness, that some of these were merited, there {s nevertheless too great a dis- crepancy between what must be the case in. any normal condition and this steady ooze of pardons. A much graver feature is that {t weakens the law and neutralizes what should be its work. The two don't fit and this misfit {gs due to the acknow- ledged partnership in the executive function between Mrs. ‘Ferguson and her husband. “It is no pleasure to criticize any act of mercy, that quality wo all must have, but we contrast this se- ries of acts with what has happen- ed in the so-called “Red” trial in Great Britain, in which prisoh terms were inflicted. Here again we must be fair and admit that Governments can become hysterical about anarch- ists and the rest of the tribe quite as easily as individuals, but these men were convicted because they had {n- cited “the creation of revolutionary organizations in the Army and Na- | vy." The case was fairly tried and with a businesslike absence of ex- aggeration; the judge said expreusly | that he would like to avold sending some of the defend@fnts to jail if he could; but here a disruptive offense had been proved which went to the root of all stabjlity in government. So far as we can see, the trial was perfectly fair—so rauch so, that w¢ can understand how ridiculous would be the sequel with an execu- tive power impelled by such {déas as that of the Texas governor.” pean oka A Misplaced Woman Texans are growing tired of the new administration at Austin.
