JAPs AT THE OPEN DOOR.

If Japan's demands on China are
really such as the cablegrams just
published show, Japan is going to
close that open door" with a bang.
Why not? Japan anticipates the
inevitable conflict, commercial if not
martial, between the yellows and the
whites. Nations that might interfere,
including her great and honorable
ally Great Britain, are busy, and
Uncle Sam doesn't want 10 fight. As
the Manchester. Eng. Guardian well
says. Gloom in Europe is sunshine for
Japan, so Japan is making hay.
China doesn't know what she wants,
or has got, or will have and Japan will
teach her. collecting large fee for

tives may be treacherous. but it's

POVERTY AND PROSPERITY

Poverty, as it exists here in the
United states today, is not directly due
to the war in Europe.
Some may question this statement
and refuse to admit it, but proof of
the assertion can readily be had by
canvassing among those who today
are in want of food and clothing.
1t would be useless to go back
farther than the time when the hus-
band or father was checked out from
the place where he had been employ
ed for many years and say, IF it had
not been for the war in Europe I
would have held my position
Let us suppose the firm employing
this man was forced to check him and
many others out owing to European
troubles, and he had remained idle
ever since though willing and anxious
TO work. This is not the cause of the
present poverty, want and suffering of
this FAMILY today, and why? Simply
because in years gone by this family
had not managed properly, otherwise
they would have laid aside a sum to
tide them over.
The claim will now be advanced
that at the present wages and the
high cost of living. it is impossible to
do more than support oneself and fam
lily All right; now let us analyze this
further and prove that not all the sal
airy is consumed in the necessary eX-
penses of keeping a family.
Let us, for example, take a man
drawing the average salary per week,
and supporting family. If this
amount is wholly consumed each week
in keeping up expenses there is ex-
travagance and waste.
A family that wishes to prosper will
allow a certain per cent of the income
for household expenses and the bal
ance must be applied to their home
or laid aside for future use.
This plan is not followed by enough
of our men today.
A few years ago a band of Arabs
was here for a week and ii was my
privilege to visit them two or three
times and j found one in particular
who was an interesting talker. Dur
ing one of our conversations i asked
him how he liked America as com
pared with his native country. His
answer remains fresh in my memory.
He replied that the Americans worry
too much over tomorrow. I'VE in
Arabia do not worry. If we have plen-
ty to eat today we eat it all, not car
ing for tomorrow. Some times we go
three or four days without food, but
we know we Will feast again some
day"
How true this has been with many
here today; when work and money
were plenty they were extravagant,
seemingly not to care for expenses as
long as they had money and credit.
A few years ago two young men
with equal salaries were married. One
rented and furnished a large house,
entertained lavishly, living up his in
come to the last dollar, while the 9TH
q rented a POZV cottage and lived a
quiet and modest life. Today this man
has a fine home of his own, while the
former one has been forced to seek a
few rooms in the rear part of a fiat.
Both of these men are out of work
now; one has his own home and re-
sources to live on, while the other one
is in a very embarrassing position.
Presidential campaigns and wars in
foreign countries are indirect causes
of poverty. want and suffering here.
CONGREGATIONS. floods and earth
quakes are direct causes Of many cases
South Bend news-times. (South Bend, Ind.) 1913-1938, 1915-03-07

, of poverty and these are unavoidable
| oftimes by the sufferer s.
| Another and greater cause Of power
| y, want and misery is the lack of
! knowing how TO get 100 cents value
out Of dollar, and the time is ripe
now TO educate the laboring class to
this art.
| 1t may not seem right for an en-
ployer TO dictate to his help as to how
! they shall spend their salaries, but
were this done as it should be- less
work would have to be done by the
charitable associations and many more
homes would be happy.
If an employer would require a
monthly statement from his help
showing his income and how it was
used, it is safe to say man would
take more pride in showing he had de-
! posted So in a bank than to admit
he had spent it for liquor, gambling
or other unnecessary extravaganza.
If an employe knows that his posi-
ton depends upon the method used in
spending his salary, he will be more
valuable to the employer.
There is nothing that so greatly as
sists in raising the moral standing as
education and some of the most valu-
able education is procured away from
schools and colleges.
Education in how TO spend money
properly can be taught by the employ
er at a profit rather than at an ex-
pense. An emplOye who is taught to
practice economy at home will prac-
tice economy in the factory.
1t is true that were this system put
in operation it would be roundly crit
icised by the laboring class at first,
but at the end of a year a large per
cent would see the profits derived
from it.
rrboro 1-o,,11 no loco 1o,, oet;o +ro.,
bic, fewer divorce cases, less work in
the police court, the charitable socie-
ties would have fewer calls for help.
the township trustees would support
fewer families, our jails would house
and feed a smaller number of va
grants, and our taxes would be re-
lieved of these burdens.
The public in general would be
greatly benefited by it. Vice in it's
various forms would gradually dimin-
ish as no ones position would be Sc
cure were it known they were spend
ing their money at these places.
That poverty, want and misery is
ones own fault to a large degree by
not looking ahead in time of prosper
ity for a time when there is no in
come.
Enjoy yourselves today for tomor-
row you may be dead" is a poor motto
followed by many. I'm time of peace
prepare for war" is not command
to nation to prepare for trouble
from some other nation, but a COM
mand to individuals TO practice econ
Omy in times of plenty for times of
need; to save and invest in a way that
when misfortune does come their way
they can be independent rather than
be dependent upon the public for the
necessaries of life.
The annual saving of expense in this
state alone would be a sum large
enough to surprise the taxpayers, and
to think it was brought about by lit
tie advice to the laboring man.
If the same amount of energy was
used for this cause that is used for the
temperance cause, for the great revi-
val meetings held throughout the
country, more stable and lasting re-
suits would be attained for the last
two causes. and the public rather than
the promoters would reap the profits.

Quite an interesting discovery was
made the other day in connection
with preparations for Improvements
to the Kirby building, 129-131 5.
Michigan st. The building adjoining
the Kirby building on the south is
owned by l.. f. Baker. and when it
came to an extension of the wall of
the former building along the party
line ii was found that the Kirby
building was over the Baker line
about Is inches. This led to an in
vestigation, and the services of City
Engineer Hammond were employed
with the result that this tapping of
the Kirby building on the Baker
property was confirmed. but it devel-
Oped that the south wall OF the Baker
building occupies a corresponding
number of inches in W. Jefferson st.
The central fire station and other
buildings in the rear Of the Baker
building are also trespassers in w.
JEFFERSON St, but IN a less degree than
the first named. The present line
must likely stand, however, until the
building is removed, but when a new
building is erected it will have to con-
form to the street line and then the
Kirby and Baker interests viii have
to settle the 16 inches of ground be-
tween themselves.

acterization of the crude and cruel advertisement issued from the Ger man embassy to warn non- combatant that they would 6o well not to em- bark on the Cunard liner on what turned out to be her fatal trip. From first to last, indeed, German diplo- macy in this sumarine discussion has been irregular-to put it mildly The Berlin statesmen have deliberately preferred devious ways, just as the German propagandists in this coun. try have sought to accomplish their ends by indirection and intrigue. No greater contrast could be found than exists between this dishonest a anI irregular" meth cd of achieving ones desired results and tho open diplo- macy, for example, of the late John Hay. What does official Berlin know about the Goldren Rule as applied to international affairs? To ask the question is to evoke a cynical smile.
 Yet straightforwardness has its uses, even in diplomacy. Single-mind- ed insistence on an undebatable point is better than forever beating about the bush It will be a pity if the German diplomats do not gather some hint of this from what has now happened to them. They have heretofore clung to the old, outworn Turkish ideal. The Ottoman govern ment has historically palavered and postponed until the government with which it was disputing put an end

ANNEX ISLE OF MAN.

Financial Difficulties May Add Home Rule Island to County of Lancashire. Correspondence of the Associated Press)
 London, August 3O.-The Isle of Man, which has enjoyed home rule since ancient times, is in such n economic quandry that a proposal to ask the imperial government that the island be annexed to the County of Lancashire was rently considered, in the House of Keys, the legislative as- sembly of the island. The member who moved the resolution declared that the island faced imminent star vation and bankruptcy owing to the bungling and incompetence of the present island administration The motion for annexation was formerly seconded and two other members were in favor of 1t, but the proposi- ton was eventually lost and the is- land continues for the present under it's own government.
 The Isle of Man is one of the favorite resorts of thousands of Lan- cashire cotton workers and other factory employees, and is practically dependent on visitors, who pay small poll tax towards the upkeep of piers and harbors. This year, how ever, the fast steamers have been withdrawn, and only one slow win ter boat makes a trip daily. Many hotels and boarding houses are clos ed. Three of the finest hotels shelter only one visitor each.
