Merely Millionaires

Many a plain American parent who is
very far from the exalted rank OF mill
ionaire will read with interest and APP
proyal of the two Yale freshmen who
beat it" from their alma mater for parts
unknown because they became tired of be-
ing merely sons of millionaires" and
wished to go to work.
To send a son to college or not send him
is very ticklish problem in these happy
days. The b.ok learning may or may not
be important. The real question is, does
the four years in college make boy bet
ter all-round human being or not? Often
times, we regret to say, it does not. Mill
ionaires' sons are perhaps not as prone to
waste their four years as the boys who
think they are millionaires' sons or, at any
rate, pretend to be- From whatever causes,
there is plenty of wasting.
1t is good sign that two American boys
have resolved against college because it
didn't give them enough to do. 1t might
have been better for their college if they
had stayed on and resolved to make their
college life worth while. Their example
would have been worth many chapel
lectures. But the main point is that they
wanted to do something worth doing and
proceeded to do it. A little more of this
revolutionary spirit, and American colleges
would cease to be doubtful Injuries and
would become almost necessities.

RECIPROCITY A CAUSE
The Republican Free List for Canada
Resented in the Farming States

To the Editor of TIE Tribune.
Sir: In reply to the question asked in this
mornings Tribune, "Why should there be any
doubt about such old-line Republican states
as Utah, Kansas, Minnesota, New Hampshire
and North Dakota?" the answer is: "Cana-
dian reciprocity" That unwise measure,
forced through Congress by Republican ad-
ministraton at the behest Of certain selfish
interests that wanted to get rid of 8 per
cent ia :iff tax, convinced the farmers Of the
country that the Republican prstence of equal
tariff treatment for all the producing inter-
ests of the country was dishonest and insin-
cere.
Never again will the farmers of the North
ern States believe the Republicans when they
say that they stand for protection to the
farmers as well as to the manufacturers. The
reciprocity scheme put farm products on the
free list so far as the principal competing
country, Canada, was concerned. but made no
material reduction in the duties on manu-
featured articles. Do the Republican leaders
think that the farmers are fools or that thew
have short memories? The answer was given
on November Z. FREE TRADFp

Short Measure Gasolene
o the Editor Of The Tribune.

10 the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Admitting the efforts which you put
forth in the advancement OF fair dealing.
take this time to advise you of very great
evil which you no doubt are aware Of.
An automobile owner, have noticed for
some time that am not getting the mileage
claimed by the makers of the car. and after
applying the process OF elimination ! have
come to the conclusion that | am not getting
four quarts to the gallon Of gasolene. For
example, carry spare one gallon can with
me for emergency purposes and several times
resorted TO this extra supply, which meant
replenishing. In pulling up at q gasolens
station, after getting my tank filed, would
ask to have this can filled at the same time
In every instance the attendan. would attenp!
to take the can TO some obscure place where
an extra supply was on hand. Upon insist
ing that they use the pump ! very seldom
received more than three quarts. When
complained the statement was made that-the
pump had just been passed by an inspector
and was correct and that the can must be ct
fault
| have covered over $500 miles since June
and have used considerable gasolene. II one
fourth of the gasolene which paid for was
never delivered you can readily see how
have been cheated. This not only applies 70
me. but to thousands OF others.
In conclusion, would request that you o"
your influence in having a stringent Law
passed for the protection Of gasoene con
sumers. R. RANDEL WANGEMAN.

A Finger of Accusation

To the Editor of The Tribune,

which are familiar with him he is highly re-

Comment and Criticism Explanation Of President wilson
Reelection from Democrats and Republicans

politically in the nation, as much stronger
than his party as Mr.. Hughes was WEAKER
than his, man to be reckoned with poilu-
cally because Of his hold upon popular i'n
aeination and public approval"
If Mr.. Wilson is declared elected az
tcr the recount of the votes IN the
clorely contested states, it will mere
ly mean that enough Progressiyes IN
those states were so disguised with the
treatment that Roosevelt received at chicago
that they showed their resentment by voting
the Democratic ticket. IL wasn't because
they loved Wilson, they wished to sno" thae
they would not support Republican thss
was favored by what are termed the "a'i
Street interests"
You speak about Mr.. Wilson'S personal
popularity.
Take his own state in refutation OF tnat'
New Jersey elects Edge Governor by IoOoo
majority over Wittpenn, who was the per
sonal choice of the President. hughes
majority in New Jersey is upward OF ol,ooo'
which means a change Of 100000 votes since
1912.
This verdict was given after Mr. wilson
last speech at Shadow Lawn, where ne mace

support of his own state.
This does not argue much for personal
popularity, does it?

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: As two citizens, usually on the ne
publican side, but who supported Mr.. VIII
son. we wish to say that we have read WIN
great deal of satisfaction your Leading edi-
toral in to-day paper entitled THE Real
Answer" We certainly admire the frank
ness and the courage displayed by such
prominent supporter of Mr.. Hughes az Inc
Tribune. The spirit manifested in your edi-
torial is worthy Of the admiration and COM
mendation of all citizens, whatever their po-
litical opinions.
When both great parties put in nomina-
ton their best men; when the country awaits
the decision calmly, be it never so close ana
when our leading journals so manfully ac-
cept that decision, no matter what their
stand has been, surely it is well with tne
country and government by the people Is
not failure.
Thanking you for this brave, bipartisan
and heartening editorial, we are

Sir: "The St. Louis Post-Dspatch" of this

the recent election. 1t is such fair and I'M
partial comments, coming from you, that make
yours a worthy paper for all mankind, and
while it is true the writer is partisan, yet
have the highest personal regard for our
President, and he is worthy of much more
kindly consideration than he has received
during the late campaign from others.

More Liberality Needed

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Allow me to thank you for the gen.
erous editorial on President Wilson in your
issue of yesterday. If the partisan press
of the United States would take a broader
and more liberal view of our politics, and
try to eliminate narrow, bitter and senseless
party prejudices, what a united and happy
nation we might become! II. B. REID.

A Non-Voting Woman Protests

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: If it be true that the reelection Of
President Wilson hinged on the votes of the
women of California, then |, for one, say it
is a shame, and a gross injustice to the
millions of women in other parts of the
country, who, like myself, were in favor OF
Hughes, but had no vote.
There is no sort of justice or fair play
in allowing part of the women of the coun-
try to vote for President until all can vote
and wonder that it has been allowed.

on the President. you came out with your
editorial "The Real Answer"
To me the printing of this acknowledgment
Of your mistaken conclusion, based on early
election returns, coupled with your generous

things ever done by an American newspaper.
The fairness of this admission will hold the

Sir: Your editorial was wonderful.
So the West did it. This is the same West

he had anything TO say, and his reply was:

Sir: Now will that high handed clique, the
G. o. P, sit up and take notice? Although
the writer voted for their man it was done in
the spirit of reluctance and in the hope that
should ne be chosen. he would prove to be
the lesser of two evils. The voice of Mr..

sounded the true tone and pictured the real
attitude of the real Americans.
