The average American says, “all right, look at the Liberty League! And the Liberty League has dentified itself so closely with ill- gotten gains; with what Theodore Roosevelt used to call “predatory wealth” that any charge the League may make against the President in this controversy is support for his plan in advance Mr. White has sounded one of the salient points too often overlooked in discussing tax matters today. As he states, the greater part of the population has no cash reserve left; it has gone for living expenses The only big reserves are in the great corporations controlled, not as so often claimed by thousands of stockholders, but by one or two major stockholders The cry is made that taxing these huge reserves would put the big corporations out of business. As a matter of fact wasn't it the size of these gigantic corporations, overlapping into one holding company and then another; making one dollar do the work of six, that put this country financially on the bum in 1929? Reasonable taxing of their reserves may well be the very thing that will keep these gelt-same cor- porations from putting themselves and the nation into the same kind of a jam the Roosevelt Adminis- tration is now dragging them out of. % A “DARK HORSE” AT CLEVELAND Viewing the results of state primaries, there 15 more and more reason to believe that Gov. Alfred M. Landon of Kansas is not the great potential standard bearer the Republicans will be looking for at Cleveland. While Landon consistently figures in a pronounced swing toward him Ohio Tuesday, though its dele- revealed a decided strength for Robert Taft, son of the late most of the balloting, is definitely lacking gates are not bound, “favorite son,’ the {a dian left $50,000 to the Toronto woman giving birth to the most babies in the ten years following his death. The result has been to place a premium on quantity in a field where quality is considerably more important A large number of mothers who are contenders this extraordinary contest are on relief. In the in are bringing into the world far more children than they can possibly support decently. Some mothers re giving birth to one child a y with some of them stillborn and others so weak as to have but slight chance for a happy life. Someone will get the $500,000—and probably will not use it very wisely. But scores, and perhaps hun- dreds, of children will have been born into families that cannot insure them good health and an edu- cation. Scores of mothers, probably, will find their own health ruined by the continuous strain of bearing children without adequate medical care. This is| f ul price for a multitude of mothers and children to pay in order that one of their number may become wealthy beyond her needs. One cannot blame the mothers who are risking | their own health and the happiness of their offspring in the hope of great fortune. They are mostly too ignorant to realize what is involved. The blame rests on the shortsighted man who earmarked a fortune weighing about 5. South China - 13 pounds. There is a good sign for those who make brief journeys. It is a favor- able day for calling together inti- mate friends. The young should| find many joys in social affairs. Bad news of some sort may dis- turb the average person today, but thuse who have attained high plac- es will not be affected.

A person born without the necessary mental ca pacity to succeed cannot have that capacity subse- | quently thrust upon him, but disagreeable person- ality traits, which make him obnoxious to others and | thus contribute to his failure, are capable of being | trained out of him, as a rule, if the training is begun | early enough and pursued intelligently. William Dean Howells once remarked that “our | manners count for more than morals.” And our manners are merely a reflection of our mental attitudes toward other people with whom we ascociate and do business. | Among the peculiarities which the head of the | psychology department of Fenn College believes to contribute to failure are borrowing and not repay- ing, grousing, talking too much, criticizing others behind their backs, attempting to monopolize the | conversation, gushing, talking glibly on matters on | which he is not informed, and inability to see a joke on himself. The most likable people may have three or four of the 63 bad traits which he has listed, but when people have 20 or 25 of those traits, they are gener- aily very disliked. And deservedly so, we think. If you don’t believe Benito Mussolini will do what he s: he's going to do, ask the League of Nations. —Dallas News.
