It purported to glve life’'s beauties, happiness, joy to children, to lovers, to the old who might find happiness only in memor- les. It was a will inspired by an appre- clation of the beautiful, a great hu- man spmpathy. It breathed senti- | mént, gentlencss, and yet it came from the pen of one to whom life had evidently been cruel. This “will,” its history and inspira- tion present the pathetic picture of a life of failure which might have been productive of something beautiful in @ world needing now more than ever beautiful things, beautiful thoughts. The hard, ‘“practical” person read this will and laugh or call it “rot.”” Yet the influence it gives to many, seeing all that its creator saw, is the sort of influence that surrounds every kindly act and unselfish deed. Even the most “practical” will admit that such acts and deeds alone make life possible in many distressing situa- tions.

In New Britain alone $50,000 of these stamps were bought which Jave not been re- deemed. Similar amounts are report- ed from various places in the country. Postmaster Delaney asks that persons mwho have failed to redeem their stamps do so at once so that the rec- ords may be completed. Of course these stamps drawing any interest. Interest stopped January first. Money represented by them is lying idle and the government 48 not selfish in asking that they be redeemed. It would seem that people would not delay in redeeming them if they know just where they are. And this brings up the probable fact that it is likely many hundreds of thousands of dollars will be saved to the government, not only in interest for the time the stamps are held after interest ceases on them, but also from the loss or destruction of stamps. Where the stamps were registered it is barely possible the owners may some day recover for them provided the government is given absolute proof that the starips have been de- stroyed, but there has been no pro- wvision made for such recovery yet. The government is now concerned in having all the outstanding war save ings stamps redeemed, and ‘the peo- ple will benefit themseives, as well as | aid the government, if they attend to this business matter. The difference between a blind mule and an ardent partisan is that the mule is blind on both sides. “If the Volstead act is capable of enforcement it should be possible to enforce it at the national capital where the national government has absolute control, with all its resources behind it. “If Washington cannot be made dry, what can be expected of enforcement in the rest of the country. But even there it has been a failure. We con- tinue this national hypocrisy when we should have the courage to face a situation and deal with it honestly and frankly. ‘With this in mind, T would recom- mend that a joint resolution be passed expressing on the part of the people of New Jerscy, a desire to have the ciency of the organization as a whole after they had quit for the day and only a part of the plant was left functioning. He stated that women ghould not work at all when not physically fit to do so, but that when they did work they should not dis- organize the industrial machine by working only a part of the time that machine was running. It would seem that this begs fundamental women's in- ability, owing to lesser strength, to work as long hours as men. Dut the omen would not care to have this argument advanced. They want to be considered equal to men in ability to produce. They seek equal pay. Mr. Cheney's argument is a good one if women are to work side by side with men. It would seem, however, that there is a place for women in indus- try in which they might do their full | share without disorganizing the whole industrial machine when they work the shorter hours which they shoild have with shorter-hour pay.
