Which will please voters immensely. Millions of waste are apparent in war department finances. The war is over, the army itself mostly demobilized. Yet no adequate reduction has been made from the thousands of civilians employed on army work. Investigation of + one big camp recently showed half as many civilians employed as soldiers in the camp! lowever, it would be ridiculous to treat the army alto er as a rat-hole to be stopped up. The thing to do is ees the money is spent where it will do the most good. rtant about the army are the men in it. They should, at least, be decently paid. Today our fighters gerve for a pittance, from the buck private to the com- mander-in-chief. Three dollars a day should be the minimum a pay for privates, and the keynote of the whole army PM ster the world war, America is alive to the necessity preparedness. We don’t believe the world is abso- =, “safe for democracy”—yet. The American ideal is a strong military establishment, as representative of our institutions as the constitution. That can only mean: 1. Well paid soldiers; service an opportunity, not a sac- rifice; service attractive to the best of our young men. 2. A democratic organization; advancement from the ranks, with equal opportunities for all; a justice system €qual to our civil courts, and before which the accused private can still call his soul his own. $. The army not to be any longer the football of cheap lities. Passel all you want to, of this American ideal. When to Go Slow Governor Hart's loathness to order out the state troops 3 Most im et EY gentlemen! But don’t lose sight ported, is to be commended. The use of state troops in emergencies is not to be looked upon in genera! favor. So much so has this been true in this state that ‘we do not recall at this time the employment of troops this sort of work by any governor of Washington, at in the past 15 years. ’ Only in the case of real riot or Violence should the ques- tion even be considered—and the call for state troops hould even then be omitted if possible. Generally speak- these strike situations can be handled by the police the sheriff's offices. When we consider the gun play which accompanies the of state militia, as is evidenced in other states of the Washington state is certainly to be congratulated it has had governors who have been able to maintain safe and sane balance. We have passed thru critical at times in this state, and with the exception of get for federal troops last February in’ Seattle, we The situation at Wilkeson thus far has been strictly a eal affair that can be handled by the local officers. uld they be unable to cope with the situation, it will plenty of time then for the state troops to be called And Governor Hart, in taking this view, takes the Let’s Hope for Best Attorney General Palmer announces that his compro- mise of criminal proceedings against the Big Five packers will accomplish more for the people than could be hoped for from a long drawn legal battle, and that the offer of ‘compromise came from the packers’ lawyers, after he had ‘placed his evidence before the grand jury. The accused was in hand, the evidence was in hand, nd the accused was let off under an agreement to quit violating the law. That's the thing in the raw, and it hath an ugly look. But, considering the rottenness of the laws intended ' to punish Big Fives, Mr. Palmer has probably acted _ wisely. Whether he has or has not accomplished anything at all for the public will be demonstrated by future meat Lills and by them alone. The little old monthly bill is the only barometer of profiteering that the folks care a cuss about, and it never fools them. _ Once King Solomon had to decide which of two women claiming a baby was the child’s mother, and to award it to her. You remember how Solomon arrived at his deci- sion—by offering to cut the baby in two pieces and give each claimant a half, and how the real mother cried out her protest against thus halving the baby, and how the king accepted that protest as conclusive evidence of her motherhood. And the other day two women in New York claimed the same baby, each asserting she was the mother and there- fore entitled to the baby. And the judge—modern Solomon, he proved himself to be—paid less attention to legal prece- dents, statute books, and such things than he did to mother heart throbs. He heard a mother’s story—‘“her small frame shaken with sobs”—and “ordered the baby returned to her.” No sword was needed. No threats were employed. He trusted to his ability to read the heart throbs of the real mother and the other. Upon that he based his deci- sion. Only the two women can tell if he decided as wisely as Solomon. ate Utopia is a place where everybody rides around in fine cars while the work does itself. Americans in China tell us that the dollar ig worth 76 cents there, and we wonder whether this is a complaint or a boast. These pretty little theories advanced to remake the world have one common fault. None of them mention elbow grease, It may be that Carranza leans to the Reds.
