There is no wisdom in, no necessity considering and planning defense against Great Britain. Colonel Mitchell and the experts supporting him all testify that our possible enemy will come by way of the Pacific. That enemy must be met by preparations especially fitted to case, American effort should be centered upon him, devoted exclusively to him and pro cuted to the limit.

WASTED TIME UTHER BURBANK estimates that curlosity-seeking handshakers cost him $10,000 in lost time last year. It would be interesting to estimate how much the same genial habit cost the American people in President Coolidge’s time. President Coolidge, unlike most public men, apparently likes it, and it does not wear on his nerves. But even with that fortunate temperament, it is a shocking waste of time, for a man whose instauts are important to_all of us. The president belongs to all the people, and not, even for a brief moment, to any one of them. Nobody should see him merely for his personal gratification, or for anything but which only the president personally can do.
