Southern congressmen demand $60,000,000 for the Mississippi levee system and will oppose the nation’s preparedness if they don’t get it. this “REMARKABLE ACTIVITY IN STOCKS” HIRTY years ago she lived in one of the finest streets of the city. Her husband provided her with a carriage and footman, and she had her dia- ~mond earrings and her alskin sacque,” which Preparedness or no preparedness, this enor- things—in the '80s—were the test of sound mous piece of “pork” should be thoroly inspected prosperity and social elegance before swallowed. Egough money has already been poured into the Mississippi to buy an ordi- nary river and make an aquarium of it and yet, regularly, there is a demand for millions and more millions to bolster up or repair levees on which millions have already been spent, until Mississippi river appropriations have the appearance of un- mitigated graft, whether or not they are such. At any rate, no sectional demand should be permit- ted, at this crisis, to interfere with conservation of the whole nation’s safety, and Southern congress- men will be wise in presenting this Mississippi “pork” as a secondary, not the paramount consid- eration. Today she lives alone in one room and sells tidies for a living. She crochets little lace squares worth about a dollar, but old friends pay her $5 : apiece for them, to save her from the “charity” she dreads. And this is a true story, STOCK SPECULATION DID IT. “Buying on margin,” “the street,” “bulls,” ; “bears” —you know the lingo of the game which 4 wrecked and killed her husband. The game goes on. ‘War stocks soar!" and next week, next year, days hence, thousands of wives will be paying in poverty and tears for today’s “REMARKABLE ACTIVITY” in Wall st. AFTER READING the names of some of the at- torneys who appeared in the case, we can now under- stand why they referred to it as the “dry” argument in Olympia. THE POLITICIANS, joining hands in all parties in Pr California, succeeded in killing off the non-partisagstiip NAVAL RESERVE and merchant marine favored by law. But it'll bob up again, and as it's a reform to kill Secretary McAdoo. Now what'll Yankee Doodle do? off politicians in all parties, it is bound to succeed finally.

EDITORIAL PAGE OF THE SEATTLE STAR LOOK WHAT WE’VE FOUND! HE STAR wishes to pay a few words of tribute to the short, fat conductor on the Green Lake car who, shortly after 9 o'clock Sunday night, hypnotized a crowded carful of grouchy commuters into cheerfulness, Maybe he couldn't help it. He was funny, just to look at. He had a piercing voice, and every time he called a street the whole car roared. “Step up front, folks,"’ he coaxed, in honeyed tones, “Lots of room. This car stops at both ends. Plenty of seats in the balcony. All right? Let 'er go.” Then he whistled. After which he made a noise like a distressed kitten. A fat man accidentally stepped on a woman's foot. And the woman laughed. A woman accidentally jabbed her um- brella into a man’s nose. And the man grinned. Everybody grinned. It was contagious. Maybe it was because of the novelty thing. Such conductors are rare.

She Shepards spent 000 preparing beforehand for the individua would try “to put something over’ on them. Human pretense is mostly stupidity. Crime is that. Vice is that. Disease is that. Poverty is social stupidity. War is national stupidity. The extreme or heroic varieties are uncom- mon and to be endured but persons of average san- ity find nothing on earth so disgusting as affection, pretense and bluff like that of the two or three hundred “parents” of little Finley J. SOME OF those nations that have been fighting each other for months haven't even yet declared war, However, unlike all other businesses, the business of throat-cutting doesn’t have to be advertised to make it a success. “TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY THOUSAND Serbian women will go on the firing line,” says a war correspondent. Well, we have been looking for something of the sort. The European war was running short of new horrors. A SPECIAL cable says Field Marshal Von Macken- zen plans to be in Constantinople in December. In other words, he figured on having Turkey for his Christmas dinner. STREWN ON STREET S DICKS TO CURB —» 'TO BREED A NEW STRAIN OF YAK 8.
