to improve the condition OF "the other half" OF
the people, but we forced by the very principles
OF our government to permit the other half to
participate in directing the government as we'll as
in enjoying its benefits. Mr.. Whitaker wants us
to deal with great principles instead OF spend
ing our energies upon shadows" and The Herald
IS willing to help in that effort, but some of tho
shadows which loom dark in the distance arc in
reality hnc spring showers for other people and
arc recognized as blessing There arc shadows
IN litc that are just much exaggerated by ono
class of people in their unsolicited sympathy for
another class, and if tried to dissipac all these
by action OF the Federal government VIC would be
in danger of conflict between States and com
munitics as to what is moral for the word has
always had different meanings to different people
Especially when applied to public regulation
when St. Crispin steals leather to make shoes
for the poor it is moral, but wrong" 1t is dif-
hcut 10 make the law fit such a moral act
We would suggest to Mr.. Whitaker that the
financial straits OF the government, the depression
'of business and industry throughout the country
and our embarrassed relations with other great
powers that are now fighting moral questions,
is quite enough for the government of tho United
States at the present time without injecting do
mcstic moral questions to have perhaps onc-half
the people decide how the other half live. We
believe that this is good time to encourage all
the people in the United States to cooperate with
confidence in each other that we may demonstrate
that government OF the people is success.

Government and Morality.

\ correspondent in commenting on The Herald
editorial "A Problem in Taxation. expresses the
opinion that can pay quite as much for govern
rIcni As any other nation. and more, provided
VIC secure the result which government is designed
to accomplish VIC arc not sure what govern
Imcnt was designed 10 accomplish, in Mr.. Whit
akcr'> opinion, but he refers TO tho great moral
question which lies at the foundation OF the liquor
business which passes unnoticcd." There arc a
good many people who think docs MIR. Whit
akcr that moral questions should receive more at
tention in government than business and financial
questions. But the government OF the United
States OF America was formed, as VIC arc told IN
the preamble to the Constitution, ito establish
justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide Tor
the common defense. promote the general wei
faro, and secure the blessings OF liberty to orr
selves and our postCrlty.
Congress WAS given tho power TO lay and col
lcct taxes to secure revenue, to borrow money TO
coin money to establish postofices, to promote
the progress of science and useful arts to consti-
tutc courts. to punish piraccs to declare war, to
provide for tho army and the navy, but it was
prohibited from making any law respecting an
established religion or prohibiting the free cxcr-
else thereof or abridging the freedom of speech
or OF the press. or from taking private property
without compensation. 1t would appear that the
fathers Intentionally lett out moral questions in
their plan OF government, because, like religious
questions they are capable of different nterpreta-
ton by different people. and might not contribute
to domestic tranquility.
Aristotle divided governments into monarchy
which degcncrates into tyranny. and aristocracy
which grows into an oligarchy. and a common
wealth which tends to democracy. We deliberately
chose the last form and made government a
business affair OF the whole people. Had we
elected to remain part OF the British monarchy,
or elected to establish aristocracy or oigarchy
il would have been easier to handle moral ques-
tions as were all the Old World governments then
handling them. But we have government OF the
people for the people and by the people and the
last clause is quite important as the second
because the people can make and unmake any
form OF government machinery at their will
There great many moral questions which
receive attention from the local and State govern
ments and some receive the attention OF Congress
when there is apparent unanimity among the
people, but it is not safe for Congress to legislate
for the welfare of the people without consulting
the wishes OF the people. We cannot agree with
Mr.. Whitaker that it is arrant hypocrisy for a
nation to fail 10 recognize the principle for which
he contends. We can sympathize with and labor

Now that tho State OF West Virginia has gone
broke because some OF her patriotic citizens have
tailed to make up the deficit in the revenues due
to Statewide prohibition, her neighbour. Ohio. is
probably congratulating herself that the citizens OF
the Buckeye State had the foresight to defeat
similar bill. Not content with simple Statewide
prohibition West Virginia at the last regular scs-
sion enacted supplementary legislation prohibiting
the carrying INTO the State OF more than two
quarts OF alcoholic drinks by any one person. but
this has not prevented many original packages
crossing the State line from Ohio, some OF which
is not contained in SatChclS.

1t must be somewhat CALLING for the other So
sailed progressive States OF the Great West to OBJ
serve that Oklahoma sometimes looked upon as
backward in legislation. has made the first real
practical step in conservation The Oklahoma
Legislature last week passed bill, which has been
signed by Gov Williams, placing all the natural
gas fields under the control OF the State Corpora
ton Commission with authority to enforce the
conservation OF the gas. The amazing statement
= made that billions of dollars worth OF natural
gas has been wasted in Oklahoma. and that enough
gas was permitted TO escape from one big we'll
alone to supply fuel for the City of Chicago for
one year. This certainly is movement in the
right direction, and the example OF Oklahoma
should be followed by other States. In West Viz
gnia, it is said, enough gas is wasted in the oil
fields every year TO furnish Washington and Balti-
moro with heat for an entire winter.
