Only the Rich Can Afford 1t.


In joint declaration OF the necessity for
reform in legal procedure. the American
Bar association and the National Civic
Federation say:
LAS a matter OF fact it is to everybody's
interest to have law suits quickly ana
cheaply disposed OF. with due regard to her
rights OF the parties"
As general proposition nothing could
be truer but there are exceptions There
are litigants who have everything 70 gain
by delay and OF course, there are lawyers
who, for obvious reasons, do not want their
cases disposed OF either quickly or cheaply
AS a rule, the larger the amount at stake
the longer the settlement is deferred and
the more costs. In other words litigation
is one OF the luXuries OF life. and only the
rich can afford IT, Sometimes, It is too
high priced even for them

Effect of Sugar Trust suits.

The effect OF the sugar fraud pros
ecutions is certain to be salutary and
far-reaching. 1t is doubtful If any re-
formatory litigation has been carried
on in years promising more substantial
results, 1t is going to the very pith of
the charges and bringing speedily to
justice malefactors OF large wealth as
well as petty offenders. In a compar-
atively short period 1t has overturned
"a deep-laid system of gigantic fraud
carried on for many years. II has thus

Secretary to the President.

The recent change in the office of
secretary to the president served to
bring to the attention of the people
again the growing importance of this
position. The man in this position has
properly come to be regarded as a sort
of assistant to the president. He must
have tact, judgment, wide experience
and a good knowledge OF men and,
above all, physical resources to with
stand the heaviest sort of tax 1t is a
post at which a man cannot often rest,
and sometimes cannot sleep when he
should, for he must be on duty whether
the president is or not. 1t is not
enough that he take off the chief ex-
ecutive's crowded hands the task of
caring for details in correspondence
and official documents which do not
actually require the presidents per-
sonaI attention, but he must always
stand between the head of the nation
and his horde OF ever-ready visitors.
The position demands the most
thorough knowledge OF governmental
affairs. inside workings Of politics and
