WHEN A PRESIDENT ACTS

TT is a real and not a manufactured
"crisis" which confronts us in the
Mexican matter; and there appears
to be no desire on the part of Con-
gress to hamper the President" This
phrase has been used a great deal of
late by those who wish to criticise the
exercise of an undoubted congressional
function, to demand the facts upon
which an Executive is shaping policy.
SO far as Mexico is concerned, the
President is making no speeches; for
once he is taking action. Under these
conditions Congress is indulging in no
debate and is itself practicing watch
full waiting" The history of this coun-
try shows plainly that a President who
acts finds Congress entirely COM
placent, while President who only
talks finds Congress quite ready to join
him in the discussion.

THE CALL OF SPRING

Sweet April sends her gentle showers
Ger field and budding tree,
To call the lovely Springtime flowers.
For mortal eyes to see.
By softly flowing streams she glides.
And everywhere you see
The foliage on either side
Break forth in fresh beauty.
The bluebird, held by all so dear.
With robin, wren, and jay,
And many more not mentioned here.
Have come from far away.
The blossoms on the apple trees
In the orchards now are seen,
And new grass covers all the earth
With mantle, fresh and green.
The pussywillow long has stood,
In her cloak of velvet gray,
In safe seclusion in the wood.
Awaiting Easter Day.
The crocuses are peeping through,
The violet in purple dressed,
Hepatica, and wild phlox, too,
Any every flower that Spring loves
best.
The daffodil now lifts its head,
The brooklets ripple, as with mirth.
Narcissus stirs within his bed,
And comes to gladen all the earth.
The snow has fled from off the ground,
And every single living. thing
That haunts the woods for miles
around,
Has come to heed the call of Spring.

DIXIE GOES AHEAD
By BRIGGS
The New Wild West
By Frederic J. Haskin

AT this point it must be said, to the
detriment of romance but to the great
credit of Hopewell. that it's days of
riot and license are rapidly passing.
Civic pride has awakened. Politics is
taking the place of gun play. Men
are making homes for wives and
mothers. Hopewell will soon be a
sober, orderly city. But that's anoth-
er story. First you must hear of the
birth and the strenuous infancy of this
lusty industrial baby which has so
shocked and astonished it's eminently
respectable parent, the grand old COM
monwealth of Virginia.
Hopewell had it's beginning before
the European war. That is a fact
which the citizens are anxious to en-
phasize. They claim that it is not
merely powder town, but a natural
industrial center because of it's loca-
ton at the junction of the James and
Appomatox rivers. A century or more
ago, they assert, City Point, which is
now part of Hopewell, was destined
to be the capital of Virginia, but Rich
mond won the honor, and City Point
remained very quiet little country
village. When the war broke out the
Du Pont Powder Company needed a
gun cotton plant, and in December.
1914, it opened one on its Hopewell
property.
The story of that property is the
story of a piece of real estate that wa
held for a rise" nearly three CEN
turies. In 1921 King Charles of Eng.

are being wiped out and the decks
cleared for whatever may be in store
for the business world. This is a
favorable sign of the times and is
strengthening confidence everywhere.
Corporations and individuals alike
are endeavoring to prepare themselves
against the uncertainties of the future
and in thus acting they are taking the
best way to prevent the very things
which are discussed as possibilities
under the present unprecedented con-
ditions.
Owing to the strong position of the
financial interests, many new indus
tries are being established and the re-
mainder of the year promises a great
activity in many directions. The car
shortage. the deficiency in paper stock
and materials. the reduction of raw
materials out of which paper is made
i'm fact, a serious famine in paper
these are the things which are at
tracing as much attention as any
thing else at the present time. This
scarcity of paper has brought about
great ECONOMY III lIS uso anu bhe
saving of old paper, scraps and
refuse of any sort which can be utilized
in replenishing the stock. Accumu-
lating old paper and rags has become
an obsession in many households.
American people are becoming more
and more thrifty; they realize the
necessity of less extravaganza and
more care in personal expenditure.
Europe is learning the lesson of thrift
and economy through necessity; the
same lesson is reflected on this side of
the ocean.
Whatever may be the developments
of the next few months, there is a
growing impression that this country
will be able to weather the storm and
take care of the future. There is
bound to be tremendous commercial
activity for the next year or two and
confidence prevails more generally
than for several years.

CONSERVING MATERIALS

TINE shortage of paper is only one
i of many items entering into a
serious business situation grow
ing out of diminution of important
supplies for manufacturing purposes.
While crop prospects are beginning to
engage attention and economy of all
resources is appealing to the thought
Aful citizen, the attention of the careful
is now being given to the
Shmediate future and the necessity for
conserving the materials which enter
into his particular activities.
While the steel business has been
booming as never before in the history
of the country, there are evidences of
more rational attitude toward this
industry and prices are not soaring in
the skyrockety way of a few weeks
ago. 1t has developed that the con-
stantly jumping prices have had a
tendency toward hesitation in build
ing and other projects, but no one
doubts that the business already in
hand and in sight will crowd the mills
for the next year at least
This conservative change in the steel
industry is indicative of the trend
throughout the business world.
Ordinarily the enormous prosperity
which has been sweeping over certain
lines of trade would have caused such
boom as the country has never
known. but the thought of a possible
sudden cessation of the war and con-
sequent uncertainty has resulted in a
careful conserving of materials and re-
sources as a safeguard against develop
ments of the future. Instead of enor-
nous dividends as might be declared
in some quarters, the unusual earnings
are being utilized to strengthen the
surplus against the probability OF
changed conditions. Old obligations

Roosevelt:
Speculation must not dull us to the
obvious but welcome fact that the
strongest man in the Republican party
has just sat with the strongest man
outside it. The coming together of
these two furnishes sufficient indi-
cation in itself of their intention to
work in harmony"
The meeting of the two men, the
Sun believes, will produce leadership
in both parties that will sweep away
any obstruction of formal party lead
ers. 1t adds:
'The real obstruction to a complete
Joining of forces by Republicans and
Progressives is to be found among
chiefs of the formal party organ
izations. These gentlemen are, how
ever, more likely to follow bold, far
sighted leadership than produce it.
The Globe recognizes that new
issue has brought these two men to-
gether and that the big issue is a COM
mon belief that the Wilson admins
tration has failed in the face of the big
world problems caused by the war.
"A new paramount issue has arisen,"
says the Globe, land concerning it Mr..
Roosevelt and Mr.. Root are in agree
ment. The basis of cooperation is a
common belief that the administration
of President Wilson has failed to up
hold traditional Americanism in its
foreign policy, and that the Demo-
cratic party as now constituted has
shown itself incapable OF preparing
adequate measures of national de-
fense."
The Globe points out that the same
influences that brought Colonel Roose-
velt and Mr.. Root together are OPP
Grating on thousands of men who have
held divergent views since 1912.
To the Herald the meeting of the
two men is a huge puzzle, and a con-
clusion is drawn out of the air that the
two have come together to combat
sentiment for Hughes.

NEW SHIPPING COMPANIES

NNE HUNDRED AND NINETEEN
~ shipping companies have been
formed since the war broke out;
combined capital, $49,SS1,0 900. This
includes concerns for constructing, op-
Grating and repairing ships. They are
carrying freight on everything from a
twentieth century merchantmen to a
Chinese junk, and if the Flying Dutch
man could be captured it would be
pressed into service to carry war
munitions to the belligerents.
Every one of these shipping COM
panies is hoping the Republican party
will make business worth while after
the war is over. Just now they are
busy lading vessels to their water lines
The next time Democratic prosperity

sections of the country have plenty of

OUR UNCLE SANS PLACE
VTTHATEVER the relation of this
wv nation to the countries at war

WHATEVER the relation of this
wv nation to the countries at war,
it is the honest conviction of
those who are familiar with inter-
national conditions that keeping out of
war at any cost may be good thing in
one way, but may be quite disastrous
to the United States in the final settle
ment of the great conflict.
Inasmuch as this country is not en-
gagged in the struggle, it may become
question in the arbitration following
hostilities whether the interests of the
United States will be conserved
through the treaties and agreements
which will be entered into. 1t is GER
tain that those who sit about the
counsel table for the final ratification
of peace will not be particularly con-
cerned about what Uncle Sam wants
or what will be for his best interests.
They will consider their own affairs
first and what will be best for the
United States will not enter seriously
into their calculations. They will look
upon this country as the beneficiary of
their troubles and any suggestions
: from the Washington government will
probably receive scant attention.
1t is on account of this particular
situation that some conservative states
Hnen believe the United States would
Re in better shape through some active
participation in the struggle abroad.
IT is pointed out that our inadequate
navy weakens our position before the
powers at war and many of the doors
which are now open to our trade, it is
believed, may be closed to us unless
we have a representative at the table
in the adjustment of the interests of
the family of nations.

THIs is the new Industrial South

T\HIS is the new industrial South
with vengeance, 1t is
- Civil War battlefelds sold at
auction; planters and ancient
lineage made millfonaires; colonial
estates converted into factories - and
all in less than year. Last week a
gang of foreign laborers digging in
the furrows of a cornfe1d unearthed
the skulls of two Confederate soldiers.
They were placed on exhibition in the
window of a shack drugstore and later
were stolen by a Greek. That Incl

its own smoking ruin. 1t is not a city.
1t is not even a town. It is a phe-
nomenon. 1t is human energy making
home out Of crude materials-bar-
rem land, men of dozen races and the
need of fighting world for powder.
This is frontier of industry, and
it has all the marks of frontier life.
There are the adventurous men from
everywhere, ready to fight for their
rights and lives, the narrow, swarm
ing streets, the unpainted shacks, the
dance halls and theaters, the money
easily made and rapidly spent, the
freedom and the energy that made
the romance of the West. The stage
coaches are jitneys, and there have
been plenty of thrilling holdups.
