citizen desires. He is not for
war unless it be forced upon US
iH defense of the nations hon
or or the rights of humanity.
He is not for peace at any
price.
With reference to prepared
ness a greater navy and a
larger army is essential. To
obtain these betterments larger
appropriations will be needed,
But it should be possible to Sc
cure more adequate prepared
ness even by spending the same
amounts as in the past. There
are signs the United States has
not been receiving full value
for its army and navy expen-
ditures. Dollar for dollar we
have not been getting the re-
suits other nations have OBJ
tanned.
There are good reasons for
believing the country has been
grated by armor plate makers
and other concerns supplying
US with equipment. 1t has
been shown that our armor
plate makers have sold armor
to japan cheaper than to the
United States. Hence the bill
for a government armor plate
factory and the agitation for
government munition plants.
The legislation proposed by
congress has already brought
some results. 1t has brought
forth an offer from the armor
makers to reduce the price and
to let the government fix the
price as it sees fit. Doubtless
there are some strings upon
that offer but it is encouraging
just the same.
A dollars worth of prepar-
edness for every dollar spent
for that purpose is a slogan the
general public will heartily en-
dorse. The greatest obstacle
at present in the path of the
preparedness move is the fact
we have been spending billi-
ons and have little to show for
it if we are to believe what our
militarists say of the army and
Iravy.

II years ago. He nearly starv-

to see them on museum walls
recognized as among the great

But joyous as this must be,
will he feel like turning back
to the asylum when he sees
some of the other things that
have gone up on the walls in
the past II years? Will he
doubt his restoration to sanity
when he is confronted by arts
vagaries and futuristic freaks ?
Or, surrounded by such pres

He stated that hardly a day passes

judge whether or not man wants the
alcohol for legitimate purposes or not.
1.-The law permits us to sell to anyone
who signs an affidavit that the alco-
hol is for external use, but we do not
want to sell to those we think are per-
juring themselves. We are ready to
cooperate at any time with the offi-
cials to curtail the sales, for We are
making but small profit on alcohol -

was being sold by others than the

THE CANDIDATES WISHES
IGNORED

- HERE will be some sur
VI prise at the action Of the
supreme court in order
ing that the name of Justice
Hughes be placed on the pri-
mary ballot after he had sent
a sworn declaration to the Sec
retary of state asking that his
name be kept off the ballot
and saying he declines the
nomination rendered him by
those filing his petition in this
state.
The past version of this sub
ject has been that a candidates s
wishes govern in such matters,
as seems entirely proper. If
the candidates wishes are not
to be respected some strange
possibilities may be opened up.
It may be possible to load down
the presidential primary ballot
with favorite son candidates
and others, thus confusing the
situation and preventing a pro-
per expression of sentiment up
on the real candidates.
If the same rule is to be ap-
piled to state, county and dist
rict offices it is easy to see how
the court may make a joke of
our direct primary law.
It will be interesting to note
the reasons advanced by the
court for its action in the
Hughes cases and the extent to
which that ruling will apply
throughout the state.
