Once we were told to save for a rainy May, now we are told to spend to obtain prosperity. Politicians are always revers- Ing themselves, and expect us to do the same. “For immediate release”, apparently ‘an imperative injunction, is taken literally by many editors and “immediately re- leased” into the waste receptacle provided for that purpose. At 120 miles an hour a train will take Just 24 250,000 years to arrive at the near- Pst of the fixed stars. Now you can figure out yourself how long it took the cow to jump over the moon.

The Putch law required that the name i of every delinquent taxpayer be printed : including those whose property had re- verted to the state for non-payment of faxes.

Mr. Baker declares that when we have dene our best “the feeble and sick will need eare and nursing” and “that character will be forming in several mil- lion boys and girls under conditions all too likely to start young trees in twisted, if not crooked, directions.” The government this field and every citizen in every com- munity, according to his or her ability, must accept part of the responsibility to keep alive the “possibilities of American manhood and womanhood for millions of people.” NEBRASKA’S NEW LEGISLATURE Senator George W. Norris, of Ne- braska. who almost single-handed put through the amendment to the United States constitution, abolishing the “lame duck” session of Congress and changing the dae of inaugurating our Presidents, seored another victory in the elections held this month. The Senator sponsored an amend- ment to the constitution of Nebraska, which abolishes the present legislature and sets up, in place of Senate and House, a single body of from thirty to fifty mem- bers, perferably non-partisan. The voters of the state adopted the idea at the polls and the present legislature, including thirty-three Senators and one hundred Rep- resentatives, will divide the state into dis- tricts to set-up the new legislative body which will meet for the first time in 1937. One of the advantages of the Amer- out by the Englishman, Lord Bryce, and other writers on government, is that a political experiment can be carried out in| one state and its results noted by others. j which can then follow the example or Soe as deemed expedient.
