Not the Only Reason

Ida NJ Tarbell probably the most distinguished
OF our women writer's, decries the fact that Uncle
Sam is, annually, spending quarter of billion dol
lars on his army and navy, and adds that ''the only
reason for this expenditure is that do not believe
ourselves sufficiently far-minded, intelligent and
well-intentioned to settle our disagreements with
other nations by the processes of reason"
Evidently, the lady's view is one-sided 1t takes
two to settle disagreement, as well as to make an
agreement. Miss Tarbell cannot guarantee that all
the foreign nations with which Uncle Sam may dis
agree are fair-minded, intelligent, we-intentioned
and amenable to the processes of reason.
For instance we Germany admittedly viOat-
ing treaty as necessity" Again, there's no
question about Japan violating the neutrality agree
ments in driving Germany out of China. We see
Holland, Switzerland and other nations keeping UNI
der arms, at tremendous cost in fear of violation of
agreements.
Don't history and present day object lessons teach
that there's safety in reliance the fairmnded
ness, good intentions and of nations that
parties to agreement Surely, Uncle Sam hasn't
cornered all the intelligence, good intentions and
processes of reason in the world Compared to what
other intelligent reasoning nations SPEND he gets off
mighty cheaply with his quarter of billion
There may be other and sound reasons why Uncle
Sam should not spend much more on his army and
navy, but reliance all other nations always match
ing him in intelligence, good-intentions and pro-
cesses of reason appears to be pretty uncertain
reed to lean on, just now.

Early one morning, in a central city, an automo-
bile, returning with two couples of joy-riders
wrecked. The men were uniniured. One of the
women was thrown a long distance and stunned in
to Inconsistencies
Confronted by policeman, the two men dis
claimed all knowledge of her. fatty denied that she
had been in the car; were willing that she should
die, might crippled dog, rather than that their
own names should be publicly linked with scan
dial.
So long as she could minister to their pleasure,
they had been all smiles all courtesy, all attention.
But, face to face with discovery, with the unrOl
ing of secret chapter before the world these men be-
come more cruel than wild beasts. She was moth
ing to them then.
Yet these men had passed among comrades of the
gay life as gentlemen and good sports. They had
boasted of their fellowship.
If the incident had been exceptional, it could be
passed by.
Unfortunately, it illustrates view of womanhood
which obtains among many men.
Grant that these two women weak, erring.
Nevertheless, they were of the sex OF the mothers
and daughters of the men-the circumstances which
had led them from the right path might have befall-
en- any woman. Somewhere too, men were respon-
sible-men who lay claim to superior strength, who
In their hearts believe that theirs is the important
The pathos in the story is that, in every city and
village in the land in all lands, everywhere, large,
maybe growing proportion of boys are coming up
to manhood inclined to accept this viewpoints to look
as these men look upon the sisters OF their race.
None too soon have women group begun to
move for fairer standard; to battle for less false
chivary and more genuine justice.
Properly understood, this one incident of the in
terrupted joy ride explains why, throughout civil
Iization the feminists are in arms.

If President Wilson does veto the Immigration bill because of the It. eracy test, his action will cause but little astonishment. either among those who favor the test or those who arc opposed to it. The reason for this Is that both sides know that literacy mas nothing to do with the question.
 When Taft vetoed similar measure he held that lteracy had no bearing from Washington is that President Wilson takes the same view. Literdcy is not, however, the end, but the means to an end The end is the restriction of immigration, and the literacy lest is advocated sQfey for that purpose. It affords those who arc opposed to continued immigration an argument which does not d'GcloSe their real ob- ieCtions, which are not so much social as they arc economic
 On the other side of the immigration question is the large body of senti- ment which naturally immigrants and their descendants possess and hold. irrespective of any political economy. Supporting them. for a different req son. is the other economic school which sees wealth and development in population. Those who oppose i'm migration have not as yet developed the courage to make their fight on a clean-cut issue while those who from sentimental or economic reason favor keeping our ports open are not in the least backward about asserting their convictions.
 Deciding the question on a tech nically of literacy makes easy work for a president. inasmuch as he need not go beyond the merits of liteYacy The logic which holds that liter1cy Is no index of character. no reflex of industry honesty or other of the civic virtues is unassailable. Too many H. literate mon have proved otherwise within our own time while about us every day we find men and women of varying degrees of literacy failing in every respect.-P.-I.

Sardless of the fact that many dem- ocrats have serious doubts as to the wisdom of such measures. The tolls bill is in point. Wilson demands of congress the repeal of the toll ex-em3- tlon, right or wrong, and his partisans call upon congress to vote as he tells them. right or wrong. But men. like Champ Clark. who have convictions of their own and. who have courags to maintain them are not thus to be whipped into line, The demand for blind obedience to the president Is breeding revolt. which show a tend ency to spread. if these methods con- tinue.
 There IS already a move on foot to support Clark. as speaker of the house. by one who Is more ameniable to discipline. That seems to be rm- piled.
