(New York Times.) Gratitude having been defined as a vivid expec- tation of favors to come, it could hardly be stretch- ed back over favors already done. Dr. Conan Doyle has found this out in the case of a man unjustly condemned for murder years ago in whom he took an active interest, succeeding in getting his life sentence turned into a pardon, with an indemnity of $30,000. own in getting the case reopened, he thought that he might at least be repaid. But the man declines| different to the efforts made in his behalf. If this can happen -in the case of individuals, no surprise ought to be felt when it occurs with whole peoples. The world is full just now of ex- amples of collective ingratitude. India is grateful to England for what she has done for them.

Under the very desirable | circumstances it is | that all ex-service men should become members of the order: The larger the membership the more representative the organization will be. There is little liklihood of the American Legion's ever be- coming narrow or selfish. There is none at all as long as its membership is large and representative of the the four millions who wer«-1 under arms in 1917, 1918 and 1919. The ex-service| man, therefore, who joins the Legion is doing the| country as well as himself a service. He is hclpznp} to make the meritorious organization larger and | more completely representative, ANOTHER TAX REDUCTION COMING. sentiment of The Treasury Department that predicted a deficit | after the ge of the last tax reduction measure | has at last decided to ask for further tax reduc- tion. Instead of a deficit, last year showed a sub- stantial surplus, and it is conceded that there will be a larger surplus during the current year unless taxes are redmced. The United States Chamber of Commerce and| other experts thought there ought to have been a deeper cut in the taxes before, and a minority in Congress urged it. However, the Treasury De- partment, Senator Smoct and others were so cer- tain that we were facing a deficit that Congress only half did the work it ought to have done. Well, the tax reduction this year will be wel- comed, and if the cut is deep enough to give real| relief there will be a disposition to forget the past STRATION WA ONE. Q. Tilson of Connecticut, Representative John majority leader in the House, has contributed an ILLU NOT A HAPPY article to the Washington Post in which he takes rather positive stand against the proposal to have (‘nm;r onal and Presidential terms begin in instead of March, and thus -eliminate the “Lame the new one urged by Mr, following: If, in addition, the r‘lccl.iop of a Presi- dent depended on the action of Congress, as might be the case af any time, it might prove a serious matter if Congress were not fully organized and ready to transact business, In the Hayes-Tilden election of the old Congress was, of course, or- and ready for any action and action The votes of Louisiana, olina and Florida were in dispute. ppointed an electoral commission Senators, five Representatives and five Justices of the United States Supreme Court who, by a vote of 8 to 7, decided the votes of these States in favor of Hayes Whatever the opinion of after “genera- tions may be as to the decision of the elec- toral commission established by the legisla- tion of Congress at that time, all will agree that some decision was imperative and that even a wrong decision, so far as the two individuals directly affected were concerned, was far better than no decision. Mr. Tilson is rather unhappy in the selection of an incident to authenticate his position. The contest over the 1876 would never have reached the Electoral Commission compromise if it could have been decided by the new Congress that was chosen at the of the Presidential election instead of a Congress that had been elected two s before. The H Tilden contest was decided on purely political lines rather than Jjudicial. The Senate was Republican and the House Demo- cratic. That caused the deadlock and the creation of the Electoral Commission. On this commission there were three Republican and two Democratic Senators, three Democratic and two Republican members of the House and three Republican and two Democratic Supreme Court Justices. Every Sen- ator, every Representative and every Supreme Court Justice voted in every division according to political affiliations, and the Republican Senate approved cach decision of the eommission and the Democratic House rejected each one. The law provided that in case the Electoral Commission’s decision were not rejected by both Houses of Congress it would stand Therefore, the verdiet was political in all respects. If the Congress that was clected in 1876 had Duck” session of the old Congress after has been eclected.
