Ever since the war the United States has suffered with diminishing intensity from a number of var cies, The economic folly of the war period developed the hope in many minds that large monetary returns for little work would hereafter forever be characteristic of American business. Clinging to this fallacy has been the cause of havoc among the indifferent, indolent worker, manufacture. or bank- er alike. saw this thiig “chucked” overboard and a sounder policy, in accordance with basic law introduced. As a result, there has been an increase in efficiency, both on the part of the manager and worker. The excess capacity for oduction—a logical development of the war—introduced a severer period of competition than would have developed under more normal conditions. Called upon suddenly and insistently to provide goods for nearly twice our population, it was necessary to expand our produc- ing plant very rapidly. When »eace came, we were confronted with an excess of fully thirty per cent beyond our domestic 1e- quirements. The reduction of this excess capacity through elimination, consolidation or conversion progressed in num- erous lines of business, to a marked degree,during 1925, so much s0 that with the expension of population and increased per capita consumption requirements, this and other factors had brought about a better balance between capacity to produce and capacity to consume, The Best Books “Where,” asks a reader, “fin I find a book that will give me the names of the hundred or five hundred best books of all time?” There are many such books, but before naming even one of them, let us make a few observations. It is foolish to suppose that a hundred books can ‘be named as those which are the best for each and every one. The simplest experience of the world proves that a work ef great excellence may deeply move one person, while it leaves another untouched; and that a book which has influenced one strongly in one’s youth may lose such influence in one’s later years. There is virtually nothing that every person may read at every time. To quote George Brandes, one of the world’s greatest living critics, who says: “Most people read without any particular attentiveness; perhaps, too, they select reading matter which does not de- serve any particular attention. But it is a matter of fact that they forget what they read. Many people, after all, are not accustomed to understand fully. They are like young people reading in foreign languages, who neglect to refer to the dic- tionary for words they do not understand; they infer them from the sense—so they say, that is, they understand half, and are content with that.” The knowledge that can be acquired through reading us- ually is over-estimated. It is a poor substitute for direct knowledge of the world and life. As a rule books are only to be considered as presenting a theory. As a doctor must study his case and cannot obtain his knowledge by reading, thus we cannot learn anything from books unless we learn also from life. If we have not knowledge of mankind, we can- not even enjoy a novel. We are not in a position to judge whether it gives a true or false picture of things as they are. And now replying to the query, it is suggested but not recommended, that Powys’ “The Hundred Best Books” is likely to the the answer. Unduly Alarmed Leave it to a college professor to take the joy out of life. Now comes Dr, Bailey, of the University’of the South, located at Sewanee, Tenn., and declares that “Petting, indulged in by persous uot “in love,” injures them physically, mentally and morally and may lead to insanity.” What a horrible picture to hold up before the “petters” of the nation. We hope the good doctor is wrong in the matter, for we see no way to abol ish the t or practice, or whatever it may be. It is a very old prof most difficult one to discourage , is just hope and pray, as we are doing in ind ‘ ainst the girls and boys of the present ation. The young folks have never yet failed to survive calamity that has befallen them, and lived to adorn n life, so we are believing that the doctor is unduly about this petting business The Political Drive The Democratic drive launched against President Cool- idge is not for legislative reasons, but for political advantage in the congressional and senatorial mpaigns to be waged next fall, Lacking a clear-cut legislative issue, the minority is resorting to the expediency of investigations to embarrass the ide The demand for an investigation of the so-called Mellon alumnium trust, the withholding of the confirmation of a variety of nominations, political demands for revision of the tariff and for chan in the tax-reduction bill which the house assed. Senator Walsh’s effort to reopen the oil investiga- da All we do, other gene: Ameri “het up’ has tion, as well as investigations of the air service, the shipping board and the conduct of alien property custodian’s office, are 50 ently political that the chances are against their attract ing wide publication Let "Em Alone Despite the growing belief on all sides that the American farmer would be better off, if left to work out his own salva- tion, which he is doing with commendable industry and in- telligence, efforts are being made by severel members of con- gress to complicate the situation by bills ostensibly in the farmer's interest. Among the farm relief proposals presented is one of Rep resentative Dickinson, of Lowa, designed to provide for the dis. posal .through co-operative associations, of the exportable sur pluses of “wheat, corn, rice, cotton, tobacco, cattle and swine.” The proposition is; to have a declaration that an emergency sts as to one or more of the enumerated “basic commodities,” en the co-operative agencies would be told to buy the sur plus in the designated commodity at the domestic price and sel! it at the world price later, the agencies to be reimbursed for losses, if any, thus sustained from funds by the collection of n equalization fee” levied on producers. Another bill intro duced by Senator McKinley, Illinois, to extend direct govern ment aid from ernment bankers’ agencies to farmers’ co- operative associations, per Tribune-Herald World Topics “It is more important to the Unit- ed States to restore the currencies of the world to a stable basis, and make them sacred, than It ts to col- lect our foreign debt,” Owen D. Young, reparation lirector, remarked in a recent speech. In discussing the federal reserv: tem he sald the Lord takes care -of drunken men and the Unit- ed States was nev- er better shown than in the crea- tion of the federal yetem tm- preced- id war. The ‘federal ‘re. 2WEN- DNOONG serve system came through the sub- post-war deflation pretty » and should be given credit for its achievements. The necessity of deflation was never popular and {s never carried out without mistakes. Deflation was @specially unpopular in a country which has large gold re- serves—which can provide an am- ple supply of credit, and which has an overproduction of self-satisfaction arising from its achievements in war and from the adulation of grateful oclates. "We were then the Red Grange of the nations,” sald Young. “That was trying, both for our head and heart. It did not create a taste for sacrifice and deflation. After the game was over came the recognition of hard economic facts. One of the facts was the disturbed exchanges and the impaired currencies of the world.” Urging the paramount importance of “humanness” in an attitude td- ward currency, he pointed out that we had succeeded land as the great creditor nation, and that now it was our responsi and obliga- tion “to see that the mediums of ex change of all countries basis which made loans recure.” Ac- cordingly, he sald, “the gold resting in the vaults of America {sa trust fund for the currencies of ths world, and its wise administration sponsibility.” Not Always May By H.

H. Beach of Newcastle as organizer for the state of Wyoming. Shortly thereafter a pre-organization caucus was held at Casper and temporary officers designated by the caucus took hold of Legion affairs in this state. Major Beach was continued Ag head of the organization and R. H.-Nichols-of Casper was the ad- jutant. -The- first post charters issued In the state bear the names of these gentlemen as the first duly constituted heads of the American Legion organization in Wyoming. Several -months. later the first partment convention conve Douglas at which convention 8.- Hill of Cheyenne was elect commander and Harry Fisher Casper was designated as adjutant The administration of Commander Hill was a vigorous one. Many new posts were organized and steps were taken to place the state organization upon a firm and substantial founda- tion. At the Sheridan convention in August, 1920, Dr. M. A. Newell of Sheridan was elected commander and Valentine Collona was elected adjutant. This convention was a stirring one and much effective work was done, particularly in the way of defining and outlining the future policy for the department or ganization. ‘The administration of Commander Newell had before it the task of cementing and c: izing the department organization and re. coupiny the strain the formative period. His work was sound and effective as ts proven by the fact that local differences be. tween the various posts were mint- mized and the-sound policies out ned at the previous convention were given effect. At the Thermopol!ls convention in August of 1921-D. W. Ogilbee was elected commander. Due to change in the department constitution no adjutant was elected. The new commander some time after the con- vention appointed W..J. Wehrli as department adjutant, which position Mr. Wehrli held for two years, after which he was designated as national executive committeeman, and fol- lowing his services in the pacities indicated was in 1925 elected depart ment commander. The entire re sources of the organization during the administration of Commander Ogilbeo were devoted to eery work, mainly the contact ing disabled ex-serv and see ing that compensation claim tiled Dr, Albert B.

This step was forthwith taken, with the results w h are already ap- parent. The Legion its ments to {ts credit, among which may be numbered the servico cam- paign above mentioned, during which there were 1,200 disabled ex- service men contacted, the passage of the tax exemption act exempting property of exservice men up to the value of $2,000 from taxation, the effective prosecution of ‘the ad- justed service compensation cam- paign, and the state-wide American- ization program. Wyoming stands high as a Legion state, and in spite, of the scattered population and tremendous area few states surpass it in the percent- age of ex-service men belonging to. the Legion. The prob'em faced has been severe. Wyoming furnished Its full*quota to the army and due to peculiar local conditions it {s stated that a greater percentage of Wyo- ming men actually went into com- bat service than was the case in the instance of any other state, As a result the percentage of men who. incurred disabilities was inordinate- ly high and the task of handling the service claims was one of serious magnitude. We are hopeful that during Commander Wehrli's admin- istration that this latter task will be well cleaned up. in istence has many accomplish- this state during Genealogical Joke Some mild mirth has been con- tributed to the New Year season by an ostensibly serious effort to prove that Andrew J. Volstead, father of the most-discussed and mo erally fractured statute ever enacted, is a descendant of that jovial soul, Sir John Falstatt—whose gsuzzlings and other indiscretions have long been a joy to the lovers of literature. Personally, we regard this alleged genealogical research as a: rather witless joke, whose only excuse was the general Yuletide jollity and tem- porary suspension of the ordinary rules of humor. Mr. Volstead, how- ever, according to press despatches, has taken {t seriously, and thus has contributed to rather than decreased the irreverent. hilarity. Mr. Volstead with great gravity hag traced his genealogy, showing beyond doubt that nowhere does his family tree impinge an that of Prince Hal's roistering companion, And he proceeds then to denounce the canard as dastardly and subtle propaganda, deliberately designed by the wicked scofflaws to bring a great and holy statutory enactment into disrepute. We trust that the ill-timed levity will subside; that Mr. Volstead will be permitted to rejoice justly in a line of descent untainted by more than one-half of one per cent at any point, and that honest Jack Falstaff will not feel that it is necessary. for him to emerge from his comfortable sarcophagus to enter any denials on his part. Farming as a Business Former. Governor Lowden of Illinois, in a recent Chicago inter- view, had this to say of the agricul- al situation as become commer- ust be handled on a basis along Farming scoyered some- t he has dis It hag existed ever since the s of that far-away day when pioneers ground their own. grist, tanned thelr own leather, loomed their own.wool, farming has certain- ly been commercial, whether the ma- jority of the farmers knew it or not. The core of the farmer's. trouble is the disposal of surplus crops, says Mr. Lowden. ‘The core of the farm- er's trouble is keeping surplus crops balance of world demand and world need for food and ability to buy food. Admittedly, this can not. be done with an fine exactitude. Drouth and wind and rain and hail and cold weather play too large a part for that. But if, after every profitable wheat year, every grower enthusiastically increases his wheat acreage, {t doesn’t take much of a prophet to foretell a glutted market and depressed prices the next year. An {deal state would be a perfect balance of world demand and world production every year. That {s an obvious impossibility, terally speak- k at which to st, and the ehooting can be guided by accurate information sup- plied by the government. However, does the American farm situation cry for as much doctoring as Mr. Lowden and numerous others seem to think? There is accumulat- ing evidence—on the market pages, in bank statements and elsewhere— hat agriculture, emerging from a cycle of depression that has been 5 ready well on {ts way recovery, maured by many other lines, is al- to automatic r factor: e than two r 1» is said to be a world’ record for this industry.

Who’s Who Greece, torn by political strife for the past decade, is now ruled over by a military dictator, General Pan- galos, former premier. Upon assum- ing power he an- nounced that since, there was no hope of obtaining an un- derstanding fro: the dominant po-| litical. parties tho) f government had decided to concen-| trate all power in his hands and place the responsi- bility for the po- litical future of Greece with him. A soldier and i a Republican, he —— was . instrumental *EN PANGALOS in dethroning King Constantine and putting Crown Prince George in. his place. Later he resigned his post ‘in the Gonatas cabinet to join the Greek army in Thrace, engaged in fighting the Turks. While serving there General Pangalos became Gen- eralissimo of the Greek army. In 1923 he resigned his command to de- vote his time to planning the over. throw of the government. He ac- hieved his ambition when, as mill- tary governor of Athens, in 1923, he proclaimed a republic and demanded the resignation of the Gonatas cab- inet. General Pangalog became premier last June by executing a coup that overthvew the Michalakopoulos goy- ernment. f Tariff on Cattle Canadian cattle sold in Toronto; the principal Dominion cattle. mar- ket, have recently brought prices averaging about three cents a pound less than similar cattle raised by American farmers and seld at Chi- cago. This important difference in prices is attributed by the Financial Post of Toronto to the Fordney-Mc- Cumber tariff, which protects the American cattle raiser. The Washington correspondent of the Financial Post writes: “There is every reason to believe that the Fordney-McCumiber tariff on cattle was not aimed at Canadian cattle, so much as stock from South America and Mexico, This being the case, it is believed that an arrange- ment more favorable to the Cana- dian cattle grower might be’ worked out, particularly as there ‘has never been a time when official Washing- ton has shown such a strong dis- Position to foster friendly business relations with Canada.” Canada, according to ‘the Finan- cial Post wants a free entry into the American market fcr her cattle, but wants it only on the assurance that the free market will be continued. Prior to 1913 when the United States maintained a duty on cattle imports, Canadian breeders produced a fin- ished type of animal for export over- Seas, mainly to Britain. But with the removal of the American duty on cattle, Canadian breecers turned largely to the production of the stock feeder type of unfinished animal, these going to the American farmer who did the fattening. Canada with her cheap lands benefitted through the production of unfinished cattle on a large scale, and built up, a large market across the border, to the neglect of the British market. When the Fordney tariff was adcpt- ed, Canadian breeders again turned to the production of finished anl- mals for the overseas market and have been rebuilding thelr trade in the British market. So long as Canada has still a sup- ply of cheap lalnd, it can produce cattle cheaper than the United States; but tariff changes as be- tween the two countries disorganizes the cattle raising industry on both sides of the border. Canada has found the type of animal she devel- oped for the free American market is not altogether suitable for the British market, and to work out the change in type by a process of breeding takes about five years. The hope of the Canadians for a free market in this country for thetr, cattle Is a vain one, American far- mers ‘need all the protection which the tariff can give. Decline in Rates “Owing to constant readjustments here and there, some made volun- tarily by the carriers, some under orders: of the Interstate’ Commerce Commission, the general level of railway ratés is’slowly but steadily declining,” says the Rallway Age. “Complete statistics for 1925 have not been Issued, but enough are available to show that the average frefght rate In each of the three large territories of the country was less last year than the year before and that the average rates per ton per mile and per passenger per mile were the lowest since 1920. In the country a8 a whole, reduction in t average freight rate per ton per mile in 1925- ost the railways more freight revenue tha. the total ad- vance being asked in western terrl- tory would give them. “The average revenue per ton per mule In 1921 was 1.274 cents; in 1922, 1.176; in 1923 and 1924, 1.116; and in 1925, approximately 1.094 cents. The reduction as compared with 1924 may seem small, but it saved the shipping public over 90 million dol- lars, while the advance being asked by the western lines would amount to ouly about 85 million Jollars an- nually. The difference between the average freight rate of 1922 and 1925 saved the shipping public about 339 million dollars, ‘computing on the basis of the business actually. han- died last year, while the difference between the average rates of 1921 and 1925, computing in the same way, resulted in a saving in total freight charges of about 743 million dollars, b “There has been no general reduc. tion in passenger rates, as there was in freight rates in 1922, but the av- erage passenger rate, also, has been steadily declining owing to the mak- ing of special excursion rates, etc. The average per mile in 1921 was 3.088 cents; in 1922, 3.028; in 1923, 3.019; in 1924, 2.978, and in 1925 about 2.920 cents. On the basis of the passenger business handled last year the difference between the av- erage rates of 1921 and 1925 repre- sented a saving to the traveling pub- Uc of about $60,300,000, while the difference between the average rates of 1924 and 1925 represented a sav- ing to the traveling public of about 21 million dollars. “The reduction of both freight and passenger rates in 1925, as com. pared with 1924, amounted to about 112 million dollars. The taxes paid by the railways increased about 16 million dollars. Thus, through re- duced rates and increased taxes, the public gained about 128 million dol- lars. “In spite of a reduction of pas- senger business, of an increase in taxes and of an increase in the av- erage wage paid railway employees, the railways succeeded in getting an increase over 1924 in their net oper- ating income of about 143 million dollars. Thus, the increase in econ- omy and efficiency of operation ben- efitted every Glass concerned—the public, by helping make possible re- ductions of rates and payment of in- creased taxes; the employes, by helping make {t possible to pay an advance in thelr annual wage; and the rallways, by making possible, in spite of these adverse influences, an increase from 4.33 to about 4.80 In the percentage of return earned by them on. property investment.” ee Winter-Wood Wish By AGNES C.

Among the scientific conventions which were in session last week, that of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, held at Kansas City, has been the center of principal interest, but that assembly was only one of a dozen. Nine societies met at Yale university, comprising © zoologists, anthropologists, mineralogists, pale- ontologists and. folk-lorists. At Cleveland the American Societies of Experimental Biology held their im- portant sessions. At Columbia unt- versity in New York there met the various branches of the American Sociological Society, and at Ithaca the psychodogists and philologists were in session. At Rochester, N. Y., the American Astronomical Society met. At every one of these mect- ings there was some significant con- tribution of learned research, “It is not too much to say that several of the papers presented at these various conventions are des- tined to be memorable in the annals of sclente. Among them, ff a mere lay estimate may be accepted, the researches of Dr. Dayton C. Miller and of Dr. Charles E. St. John, made at Mount Wilson Observatory at Pasadena, must rank high; both these papers were presented at the meeting of the American Associa tion. The former authority dealt with the highly obscure—to the ordl- nary mind quite searchless—subject of the ether drift, and dealt with it in a way which may enforce a modl- fication of the conclusions of Ein- stein with regard to relativity. The latter dealt with the composition of the dark companion star of Sirius, which 1s {tself the brightest of the stars; and h{s observations help us to a profounder knowledge of the atom than we had yet attained. This, to the lay mind, is a stagger- ing thing. We have the atoms within our own bodies, but our most powerful microscopes will not reveal them. But here fs a man who goes to a dark star 600,000,000,000,000 miles away, and’ finds that the terrific heat of that body has stripped its constituent atoms of their enveloping rings of electrons, which are 100,000 times the diameter of the nucleus, and left the nuclei to be jammed all together, resulting in a density for that star which exceeds anything else in the uni- verse.
