CLEANING DAY BULLETIN

Edward A. Abbott says: Experience
has taught me that no civic better
ment. be it ever so good, can be had
and enforced until the public is made
to see its importance and wonder why
in the world its coming has been so
long delayed Sometimes it takes
years of persistent preaching and ar
guing.
I'm the case of billboards, I would
go after the unsightIy and otherwise
offending signs with insistent argu-
ments, using humor freely, ridicule
sparingly and little words abundantly.
Even the judges of our higher courts
may after while learn that outraging
the aesthetic sense sense is physically
as hurtful as Is outraging, with whis-
ties, bells and street cries, the sense
Of hearing. The aesthetic sense. or
taste, Is most largely developed in
those least able to protect themselves
people of gentle refinement, who
stand for things beautiful and for
things that help to keep our morals
from going to the dogs. The typical
billboard sign worries such people just
as bad odors worry the less sensitive.
, II, as has been abundantly shown by
experts, worry is more deadly than
germs, then all those who are worried
| should be protected alike, whether it
is the eye, ear or nose that is of
| Tended"
Raymond Fosdick says: Argument
against billboards proceeds on several
grounds. They promote immortality,
they are dangerous to health, they are
dangerous to life, If not safely con-
structed and located. They are un-
slightly and inartistic, marring the
beauty and harmony of our parks and
building, our drives and public thor
oughfares, which, perhaps, furnishes
the best reason for the regulation and
control of these public nuisances. Not
only are billboards ugly in themselves,
but they mare the sightliness of every
structure about them. so that real es
tate values are affected by their pres
ence. Beauty of environment is an
asset of permanent value, and the sur
rounding property can not be defaced
without affecting materially the prop
erty in the entire neighborhood. L

fectly Independent in impartial. The
writer, several year sage, adopted this
method. When case comes for an
examination he is treated as any other

at the following conclusion, that the
sole cause of medical testimony be-
coming more or less in disrepute in
courts and among the laity, was not
because of incompetency or dishon-
esty of the expert, but because the
law allows either side to employ as
many as they please and pay them
as much as they may ask; thus max
ing commercialism of what should be

in the next hundred years oud wise
legislators may learn sense enough to
make law putting the matter of ex-
pert witnesses wholly at the discre-
ton of the court, who will appoint an
eminent expert for each side, paid a
reasonable fee for his time by the
court, to testify only to the scientific
facts involved in the case at issue: in

Editor Of The Palladium:

Editor Of The Palladium:
Upon my return from Indianapolis
the other evening, after attending the
convention of the Franchise League,
my attention was called to certain
headlines in your Friday edition, which
read:
Miss White militant, she states"
AS this places me in false posi-
ton with such portion of the local
public as peruses your paper, permit
me to say that this is all right, with
two exceptions, namely:
That am not militant
And never so stated
The text which follows is a partial
reproduction of an interview which
appeared in the Indianapolis Sun
And not, as intimated, anything
said at the convention.
| gave the interview to a charming
young woman on the Sun, who wanted
something else other than the routine
of the convention.
The Sun, being of the Hearst brand
of Journalism, Is not interested in
statistics and other usual procedure
Of convention. l was very glad to
assist my confrere on the Sun, and
therefore, said some things which were
published later.
/ beg to call attention to the fact
that the text reprinted in your paper
says:
Personally, I don't believe in win
dow smashing and bomb throwing"
As this is the procedure of the
militants. a simple process of logic
would not hang me In the headlines
with that class.
The word militant" in connection
with the suffrage propaganda, means
that minority of the English suffra-
gists which INDUCES in this form of
procedure. Conditions in their country
may justify this. But it has no place,
nor is 1t advocated, in the United
States.
When l said I was an 'insurgent," |
used this term, as it is known In
America. in contradistinction to
"standpatter."
''Insurgent'' and militant" are not
synonymous terms.
And when I further said that "the
only way to get at them is with ham.
mer and longs" I merely meant that
you can't get anywhere on the ques
ton of woman's suffrage by distribut

ings where you read improving articles

In other words. that you must hold

quaint the public with the status OF
affairs.
AS there is much careless use OF
words and terms in connection with
the suffrage movement, and as the un
informed public is easily obsessed by
headline. I will be indebted to you
If you will give this communication
as much conspicuity as you did the
original news story. Yours,
