Numer- proposed at- in ous announcements of tempts to secure the nomination either party will not please those who have thrown their head-gear into the squared circle, nor will such an- nouncements please those who intend to do so. Numerous announcements may not please some politicians and it may please others. This will depend en- tirely upon how they figure the re- sult of splitting sentiment will affect the man of their choice. But the non-politician—the who wants above all else to see the best man at the head of the city government will be glad to see as Jarge a field in each party to the end that he may have some choice when he comes to select the man for the nomination of whom he will vote. Now. especially, is the time for the critics of the administration to speak or “forever hold their peace.” It is extremely easy to find fault; it is not so easy to secure a mah who will stand for the nomination on a plat- form of constructive measures to cure the faults complained of. So, the independent, non-poli- tician, honesty prompted voter will say: “The more the merrie:” and, what is better, “The more, the great- er possibility of securing the best man." man THE SOLDIER FUND Opinions may honestly differ as to the propriety of some of the expendi- tures made by Frank Butterwofth as agent for the American Legion in the distribution of the state fund for ex- service. men. A court has decided that he had no right to pay the expenses aijend- ant upon such distribution from the fund. Incidentally many a learned lawyer wonders at a decision which, were it to be followed as literally as it has interpreted the statute regard- ing the fund, would not allow the ex- penditure from the fund of two cents for a postage stamp to.reply to a let- ter of an ex-service man seeking as- sistance. Incidentally, too, it is rather surprising that a court would decide that a legislative body would appro- priate a certain amount of money, as the state legislators did do, and then hold that said legislators praciically remarked officially: ‘“There is the fund; we domit know how you ex- service men are going to get it unless the American Legion will pay for its distribution.” Many lawyers have Peen under the impression that the creation of a fund for a certain pur- pose will' carry with it by implication the right to expend a fair amount of that fund for necessary expenses. But in this matter, also, opinions may honestly differ. As it stands now it is “res adjudicata.” The court has held- that Mr. Butterworth may not \ properly pay himself and, by absolute tmplication, may not buy a stamp to notify an ex-service man a check awaits him, nor may he buy some ink with which to write that lctter or draw that check. But there may be no difference of opinion as to the report of the audi- tors of Treasurer Butterworth's hooks.

There may come some suspicion, at first, as to whether the ‘“Made in Ger- many" articles will come up to their former standard. Otherwise Germany will profit by the use of the words. For those who still have the feeling of hatred of all that is German—and a very natural feeling it is— the use of the words will be helpful; they can avoid purchase of such articles. But meanwhile, no matter how one pa- tronizes Germany's manufactories, there should never be forgotten the German character which does not al- ways bear a visible stamp. LEAGUE PUBLICITY Americans feel that the publicity is appreciated in this coun- try more thoroughly than in Europe. Certainly its development here has Witness the art dis- played in advertising. Advo:‘n(in:_puhliciw is not essen- tially an English characteristic. The English shun publicity to a far great- er degree than do Americans. An Englishman, hdwever, has seized upon the idea of the wisdom of the plan for giving better publicity to, the affairs of the League of Na- tions. He has called the attention of the League's news bureau to the fact that the public is more interest- ed in the sharp conflicts of opinion displayed in regular meeting of the league council, than it is.to news of meetings which give the appearance of having been staged. He advises therefore, that ‘the league council, should sit habitually in public, and only exceptionally in private.” “What interests the public,” he says, "is ac- tive controversy * * * it is the unex- pected that stimulates interest.” Thinking Englishmen the world and especially the United States interested in the league. They believe in the League. They feel that the l.eague would be a tremendous suc- the United States to join value of want cess were it. If the league complishes good is good and it should be given the greatest publicity. There is but one way to bring this about and that is by making public the real news of the activities, council.
