He declares therwitzki’s case is different from that of the political risoners still in federal prisons. Their offense was so ‘serious they must remain where they are. Their offense S as serious as Abraham Lincoln’s offense during the Mexican war. They didn’t believe in the war and they ‘said so. So they are in jail till they die. Lincoln didn’t believe in the Mexican war and he said so, He said it Most emphatically, in congress and out. Of course, justice miscarried in Lincoln’s case, Instead sending him to prison the people sent him to the ite House. And he remains our greatest American to “It costs Americans $5,600,000,000 a year to run their,antomobiles, but, re you call them fools, think of the other wheels they cause to be too, The diggers after fossils in this country are day by day approaching and closer to the United States senate, ‘Germany leads the world in the production of potatoes—and trouble, The Budget and Politics O politician would openly oppose the budget system in the coming’congress. No statesman worthy of con- ‘ation would attack the system at any time. The ‘Statesmen might demand amendments and the amend- mts might easily be made so long as they make budget- "ary rule more rigorous. Let us suggest just one. We might easily provide that en Congress increases the appropriations recommended by the budget bureau, congress should then and there be compelled to impose taxes to pay the increases recom- | mended. That would help the budget system and restrain | the apostles of the “pork barrel” in congress. Administration of thé budget should also be removed | from political influences, if that is possible. Only then Will the general public get a sincere and honest report ‘on the finances of the government. ' Now, for example, the present budget administration #@eliberately and knowingly underestimated the revenues This year from internal revenue taxes. One reason for this was political. The revenue will be much greater than edicted and it will be possible to show a “surplus” at ie close of the year. We will then have some political og about “economy.” We will have no confession lat the public was misinformed when the budget was first prepared. a a) A recent work of fiction is called “Bunk,” but there was only ong “athor honest enough to admit and employ it, _ Bumper crops are reported probably for the delectation of those who _ sere bumped.

A nation Should be equally discriminating. It is the solution of our immigration problem in a nutshell. Canada wants population for its vast stretches of un- touched country, but it will not let the rabble in. On the contrary, it extends, thru its overseas agencies, its invita- tion and opens its doors only to those it deems suitable ' and helpful. Others, on application, are tartly told they "are not wanted. As a result, Canada obtains a superior > class of new residence. | The United States may well emulate the example of ) Canada. It should extend its hospitality only to those Who are sound, and sane, and safe and serviceable. There are millions of such on the other side. They will come if » given the chance. They alone should be sought where they now live. An Indian tribe has laid claim to a part of Chicago, which is proof enough thaf civilization has touched the red man ever so lightly. ‘The limelight is so grateful to Massachusetts that it is now claiming the - squash championship, in additior We Thank You, Denyse RENCH girl, wearing a self-opening parachute wei ing only 12 pounds, jumped from an airplane t @ling 100 miles an hour. She landed gently, uninjured. This may be the way flying will be made “safe.” Pas- Sengers might wear parachutes in open-top planes so they would fall slowly if the machine plunged from under them. At any rate, one experimenter for safety like this French girl, Denyse Collin, is worth more to us in the way of aiding aviation’s future than a dozen stunt fliers. “The hand that rocks the cradle is the hand that rules the world.” So, where does Mrs, 0.
