by former Attorney General McCue

Some people appear to have been
born old-but the great majority had
to develop from the incubating sage.
Practically all of the grown-ups
were noisy, annoying youngsters at
some stage Of the game. They were
no doubt as bad or worse than the
children of today--but 1t is a difficult
matter to convince the crusty old
bachelors and the childless married
couples of that fact.
Monday night at the Grand theatre
several proud mamas had their hope

and fpresidentesses were quiet and de-

Half the people born in the world

Such is the verdict of DIR. Harvey

PUBLICITY KILLED,

Comenting on the publicity feature.
Of the corporation tax law-The Chi.
cago Record-Herald has the follow.
ing:
Both houses of. congress have now
taken action which will reduce to a
mere shadow the obnoxious, object
less, indefensible publicity features
OF the corporation tax law.
The intelligent and just protests Of
the 100000 corporations of the coun-
try, of the business community and of
many Independent and progressive
newspapers against a, corporate nub-
Lefty which could not have served anv
useful purpose, but which would have
furnished malice with new weanons
and unfair competition with uuasi.Ie-
gal sanction have had their effect.
Amendments have been adonted
which will prevent the publication and
free inspection of the corporation re-
turns except at the direction OF the
executive or of congress. It is hardly
necessary to say that no occasion for
such direction or demand is likely to
arise so far as the ordinary, non
privileged, perfectly innocent corpora
tons are concerned.
True, there is still an element Of dan
ger in the emasculated and and dew
italized publicity provisions, Leaks
will be possible-if the act shall stand
and there win be temptation to Civ
ers and receivers of ''favors" for infor-
nation.
But the action of congress, in view
of the origin and advocacy of the OBJ
jectionable feature in question in high
quarters. Is an unmistakable victory
for public opinion and for sanity In
politics and legislation.
Exit the publicity provisions. No
tears, no flowers.
