Councilman Griffiths’ proposition to make a general cut in wages of all receiving over $100 a month is neither equit- able nor profitable It will not hit the really high-salaried officials, because their stipend has been fixed by city charter, and the people, | { not to be parsimonious in salary | by a majority vote, decidec matters. : Griffiths’ proposition, therefore, will strike others not so well provided for, who, in many cases, should really have an increase in salaries For illustration, take the case of police captains. They are receiving $150 a month, out of which they are required to pay one and one half per cent for insurance. 5 Compare that salary with what police captains get in other coast cities: San Francisco, $225; Oakland, $200; Los ‘Angeles, $200; Portland, $175; Spokane, $175; Vancouver, B. C., $200. True economy, Mr. underpaid service. : In fact, that is likely to prove the most expensive sort of economy. AND NOW PROF. EHRLICH tells the International Medical Congress that his famous remedy, “606,” cures fram- boosia. We might as well give up. Just as soon as they get us a cure for one thing, they find a framboosia, or bam- boozlia, or something else new that’s ailing us. Tough Time for Money Trust RETTY soon the money trust will feel like singing the Missouri hymn: “You Gotta Quit Kickin’ My Dawg Aroun’.” First came Untermyer and the Pujo probe—the probe that unmasked Morgan and sent such a shock to Bill Rocke- feller’s bronchial tubes. Then Wilson followed with his “gal- lows as high as Haman’s.” Then followed McAdoo’s offer Griffiths, is not dependent upon of half a billion of emergency currency, the successful sale} in St. Paul and other places of municipal bonds in small denominations to the people; and McAdoo’s latest proposal to deposit $50,000,000 of the people’s money in banks that need it to help in moving the people’s crops, taking-as security not only gilt-edged bonds but also well indorsed commercial paper—a p' which leaves the scheming constrictors of credit not a leg to stand on in their campaign to pinch the people into subjection. 2 i Perhaps it is with these examples in mind that Poindexter, in his bill to conserve the natural treas- ures of Alaska, has made it possible for any small investor to become a stockholder in Uncle Sam's coal company. The bill provides that bonds in the gov- ernment ent which it contemplates shall be issued in denominations as low as $20 and offered to subscription. ir dependence on the money trust has been due to our own lack of insight and moral courage. We have been let- ‘nap a few men scare us by tactics like those of the Indian m icine men. THE BANKS don’t seem to be hungry for Secretary Mc- fAdoo’s reserve currency, despite the “money tightness. Maybe banks get more for use of their money when money isn’t loose. Just Beginning to Live at 56 HE governor of Indiana is 56 years old, yet by his own admission he’s just beginning to live—all the rest of his time he was only existing. i : For Governor Sam—Sam Ralston, you know—is taking his first vacation! Mind you, we've not a word to say against the chap | (London) who's so hard up he can’t afford a vacation, not even a trip once in a while to the old homestead, a camp-out in the back yard or a picnic by lake, ocean or creek. It’s the tragedy of jat Narragansett Pier, say the de-| tectives. our time that there are such folks, by the hundreds and thou- sands; the galley slaves of want, who have to pull to the limit of their strength each minute, merely to keep afloat But Governor Sam isn’t in that category. When not ‘doing politics he’s a banker, with a wad Long ago, had he wanted to, he could have found out what the wild waves were saying. Why didn’t he? We don’t want to be unfair to Governor Sam, but the chances seem to be that he thought more of money and property and of piling up things than he thought of the| immortal sou! within him. If that’s the right guess, here's hoping that his fortnight down on the Massachusetts coast, where the Atlantic billows roll and the ‘skeeters sing and prey, will convince him what a sad mistake he’s been making all these arid, humdrum years. Not take a vacation when you can? What earthly excuse fs there for denying so reasonable a call of nature? PLAYWRIGHT R. BEERS LOOS says his new play is one that “any man can witness and then go out and look a bartender in the eye without flinching.” Something like “Everywoman,” which enables a fellow to go out and look his wife in the eye without flinching—for a look, or two.
