Ovwtside Pepin at by The Pubiven' Phone ee per mown, a month Spokane is at present undergoing a terrific scare about supposed immorality in its high schools, Well-intentioned people in Portland, Tacoma, Seattle, practically every city at one time or another in the past, have raised the same bogey. But as a rule there is no great justification for the fears. In the present instance at Spokane various citizens are saying, “But it is a jurist, Judge Webster, who sits in juvenile court and has all these cases of delinquent children brought before him, who is responsible for the charges. There must be something to them.” The fact that Judge Webster is the judge of juvenile court is the very reason why Spokane parents should NOT become alarmed over the situation. Judge Webster deals with the young people—a handful of them may be high school students—who are | charged with delinquency, with transgressions of the moral code. Some of those whd are brought before Webster may be guilty; many are innocent. But as successive cases are brought before the court Judge Webster's viewpoint becomes warped. He comes uncon- gciously to regard these boys and girls as REPRESENTATIVE of high school students, when anybody who stops to think knows they are NOT representative—they are the students experimenting with “immorality” they are forced about. in some students out of school by par realize that the is ridiculous, Spokane residents whe are of withdrawing their chil- because of this mania, The Spokane will enly retard training Youth is all right.

Suicide is more successful when a fellow hangs himself and then drinks the whisky.

Nevertheless, the real question of the next century and of the Pacific is race equality In an economic sense, | Question for | Us to Settle BY AMATEUR ECONOMIST Every delegate at the limita tion of arms conference knew What the great question was, and could have put it in @ very few words, so that ail the world could have understood, Yet not Ome of them had the nerve to do it Our ancestors came to Amert om 200 years ago, and found a few hundred thousand Indians In Pomsenmion. They decided that the Indians had no right to all this land, and decided to take some of it for themecives, We al! know the result Rightly, we are determined that Japanese and Chinese have no right to come and replace us. We are going to keep this coun try for ourselves and our chil | dren. I believe that we Americans are right in both cases, but, frankly, it is hard to show a moral principle that will fit both What about Australia? Have 4,000,000 Anglo-faxon, a right to keep all Orientals out? The Aus tralians feel just as we feel, you May rest assured. What about Siberia? Has Japan a right to £0 into this part of the world and occupy some of the vacant lands, just as we came into America and oceupied this country? If you were helping to write a constitution defining the rights Of the peoples of the world, how would you state this moral prin ciple? | Would this be ft?—AN races | shall be held free and equal, and shall be entitied to an equal | share of the natural resources of the world. Will we ever concede the Jap- | anene, the Chinese, the Hindus | and the negroes of Afrion this economic equality, and will they ever accept anything lean? This economic race equality ts fhe real question at stake in the Pacific, and we all know it. Japan has a dozen or more garrisons in Siberia now, She Is spreading her power as fast as she can. If you were a Japa Neses, just what would you think was right? Read your history. and then honestly tell yourself what we AngioSaxons would have done. Are we not rather proud of our resistiees weep all over the world during the Inst three centuries? Are we willing to grant the right to other peo. ples to imitate us, as far as they can? I have asked a lot of questions that [ can't answer. I have ar- rived at @ theoretical conclusion that I am not willing to concede. THE OLD-FASHIONED GARDE gives a keen edge Sold on trial.
