The bimetallist believes that words are silver and silence is gold. Some folks haven't got a sense of humor—or any other kind, The legislature is passing all kinds of _ bills these days. Pass a few down this way, if they’re not too inflated. We hope the tax on 3.2 beer will be sufficient to pay the inspectors who pre- vent brewers fudging to 3.3 per cent. P Advertising suggests purchases and purehases cause money to cireulate and the circulation of money produces prosperity. Some of the greatest painters that ever lived were Chinese, says an authority. We thought the modern flappers enjoyed that distinction. Should the legislature adopt a sales tax, which is unlikely, the solace of a ci- garette, a cigar or a pipe, in these depres- sing times, ought not, be taxed, or made more difficult to obtain. When new money is made available, the first process of an inflationary move- ment is the employment of it in stock ex- changes causing a rise in the market value of securities and natural materials, Now they're trimming the salary of bishops. Bishop Manning got a 20 per cent cut at a convention of his, diocese. Salaries only are being reduced, so the pastors who receive mere wages, need not worry. In 1981 the house had 137 employees, the senate 185 at $6 per day. In 1983, the seore stands 95 for the house and 81 for the senate at $5 per day, a saving to the state of $1,052 per diem or $63,120 for the séssion. And now who can say that the world isn't growing better?—-Lake Wales Highlander. News comes from Tallahassee that the workmen's compensation bill seems doomed to be lost at this session. For some unknown reason proponents of workmen's compensation in the Florida legislature never haye been able to draft a bisl that doesn’t put a heavy tax on industries ill able to bear it. Florida industry is willing to join with labor in furnishing compensa- tion for the working man but naturally isn’t willing to carry all the load.—Ocala Evening Star. PEACE DAY While not very generally observed, a large number of societies in the United States and other countries conduct suitable exercises on Peace Day, May 18, each year. This date marked the opening of the first Hague Peace Conference, called in 1899 by Czar Nicholas II of Russia. The irony of fate is seen in the fact that Nichol- as was killed by the Bolsheviki 20 years later after being forced to abdicate as a result of popular dissatisfaction with his conduct of Russia’s part in the world war, which his ministers were charged with aid- ing to bring about. Numerous peace organizations exist in the United States, of which the American | Peace Society, with headquarters in Wash- ington, is the oldest, and whose magazine, Advocate of Peace, is widely circulated. Some of these peace societies are com- posed largely of extreme pacifists, who would not willingly take up arms in defense of their country, even if it were invaded by a foreign foe. Others have a membership of loyal, patriotic citizens whose efforts for peace are in line with those of all right- thinking persons. An important factor in the peace movement is the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, which seeks to pro- mote the study of the causes of war and practical means to prevent it, to aid in the development of international law, and to educate public opinion concerning these matters, It was founded through an en- dowment of ten million dollars by Andrew Carnegie, who also gave a million and a half for the building of the Peace Palace |- at The Hague. It is not a pacifist institu- tion, however, and its personnel was placed at the service of the government during the world war, In the present unsettled condition of the world, every proper effort for the pro- motion of peace should be encouraged, and @ wider observance of Peace Day would be most desirable, UNHAPPY RUSSIA Press dispatches in The Citizen from Russia say that the Soviet government has ordered a shift of many million people, who will be driven from their present homes and forced to occupy areas designated by the powers that be. re take ) The idea, as set forth by these dis- patches, is to expel or segregate all who are suspected of being disloyal to the Com- munist regime. Through a rigid system of passport regulations, every inhabitant of the country will be investigated and practically no new influx of population will be permitted. All who cannot prove that they are 100 percent Communists will be placed un- der severe restrictions or expelled from the party. At present only about 3,200,000 out of a total population of 160,000,000 in- habitants of Russia are recognized as mem- bers of the ruling Communist party and this number is expected to be greatly cur- tailed by the new program to be put into effect on June 1. As a matter of fact, only a very few persons have any voice in the government, and only one, the Dictater Joseph Stalin, has any real independent power. Thus a potentially great people is en- slaved under a system even more repres- sive and cruel than that which existed un- der the Czars. WORLD WAR LEADERS Reviewing what has happened to the great leaders of the world war, a recent writer notes the fact that among them all Hindenburg alone today occupies a high place in world affairs. Rounding out eight years as president of the German re- public he is still active at the age of 96. Of the other great military leaders, Poch, Haig, Cadorya, Diaz and Grand Duke Nicholas of the Allies are dead, as are also Moltke, Falkenhayn and Hoetzen- dorf of the Central Powers. All the prom- inent living generals of the war are in re- tirement, including our own Pershing, Among the political figures of 1914- 1918, only Lloyd George is still active, and he no longer holds an important office. President Wilson, Czar Nicholas, Emperor Francis Joseph, Premier Asquith, Premier Clemenceau and Chancellor von Bethman Hollweg are dead; Kaiser Wilhelm is in exile, Thusly briefly runs the story to date of those whe guided the movements of more than 65 million mobilized fighting men, of whom 16 million died and 20 million were wounded, in a struggle which changed the map of the world.
