Yet it has happened. Senator Kellogg of Minnesota has introduced a bill in the United States senate which, in effect, questions the integrity of the courts of those Western states, in- duding Washington, which have grappled with the problem of saving their lands for Americans and keeping them out of the hands of unassimilable aliens. The senator, evidently misled, has also attacked the honesty of thought of the in- habitants of these states. Here is what Mr. Kellogg proposes: He asks that the president of the United States | Be empowered to transfer from state to federal courts any litigation in which the pres- ident may think that treaty rights are involved. In the exercise of this proposed prerogative of kingship he might call upon United States marshals to see that the state courts give up their jurisdiction when he desires it. The proposition is preposterous. Even if there were some necessity for it, grave damental questions would be raised which could not be brushed lightly aside. But they need not concern us here, The question is: Why the attack? Can the senator not trust the courts of this state and those of California to abide by their pwn laws? and the interpretation of them $hall in no way violate rights of guaranteed by treaty. Neither California nor Washing- we admitted that the laws in ion in no way conflict with rights of Japan.

If from this day on nobody married his wife our entire social problem would be solved. Somehow, in thousands of cases, the woman .the man mar- ries and the man the woman weds were in all the earth the especial person that should have been sedulously dodged when the bans were being announced. We note that some of these divorced folks get married again, and usually stick it out, Widows especially have a wear- ing quality that endures mightily * under the severe rub and tear of the matrimonial laundrying. Probably no woman really ap- preciates her first husband until she has had to go thru the agony of breaking in No. 2, and widowers who marry are usually more contented the second time. Marry anybody but your wife; let all young men follow that advice and roses will bloom per- Petually beside their path.

This is turning the clock back 2,721 years. It was 800 B.C. that the Greeks produced the world’s first colus—irregular lumps of gold or silver. What did men use as a mediam of exchange before then? f $ 2 hi i i ' fy Fl rf rs : i} I of FE Hi trade between nations in the com ing decades will go back to the primitive barter system—say, out- right trading of perfunes for wheat, with no money involved. Much foreign trade is already being done on a barter basis. D. BR. Crissinger, controtler of the currency, thinks that an if- ternational money system must be established. One thing ts certain: There's plenty of food on earth for all, plenty of labor to make all needed necessities of life. Obvi- ously, then, business stagnation is @ financial problem—a matter of money. As we understand the immigra- tion law, it's intended to prevent the United States from becoming an alienation. That story about beans a thou- sand years old sprouting revives hope in some spring gardeners. Women's make-up used to keep men guessing if it was real; now they guess who's behind it.

All countries are learning the best navy to scrap is their own, Knock only knockery tic. Such opponents of labor will find slight satisfaction in the re cent sexsion of the American Federation of Labor, where the conservatives won by as big ma Jority on every issue, and where American labor was permanenily divorced from communism, the Third Internationale, Lenine, Trotsky and other crimson no dons, Bout & i» significant that there was a certain determined minor- ity that was for affiliation with the Russian oligarchy, and was for direct action rather than po- litical persuasion. Also lt was manifest that this minority was to be found in deb egates from certain garment workers’ and miners’ unions, ‘The sweat shop and the steel trust leave a bright red trail io the hearts of the oppressed. ‘The most conservative union in this country is the typographical. ‘The typographical union has the best working conditions, the shortest hours, the highest aver. age pay of any group of workers. Finally, it is up te the boss to decide whether his workers are geod citizens or the reverse. If the employer aids in making working conditions decent he brings contentment to his em- ployea. If the employer persists in skinning his workers he not only incites” unrest in his own plant but he promotes riot abroad. ‘The beat friend this nation has is the liberal, humane employer, and the worst foo of democracy is the benighted trust that herds alien workers like cattle, and that sweats young girts in greasy shop and attic.
