A RUBBER STAMP REFORM

From the Cincinnati Times-Star.
 According to the dispatches the Kaiser is about to submit to a restriction Of power, if the recommendations of the constitutional committee of the Reich stag are adopted. Ordinances and de- crees issued by the Kaiser in the name of the empire are to be without validity unless signed by the imperial chancei- Tor
 This is almost a pathetic groping to- ward liberty, or, shall we say, it is a meaningless, futile concession made by junkerdom to the German people. The imperial chancellor is the appointee or the Kaiser, and he is subject to re- moval at the Kaiser~s whim, He is in no way responsible to the Reichstag. Tho natural complement of the measure re- quiring the chancellors counter sigma ture on imperial decrees was refused con- sideration by the committee. namely, the comforting of ability on the Reichstag to dismiss the chancellor.
 Germany cannot be said to have got very far in progress toward constitutional freedom. The mere creation of rubber stamp does not mean liberation from autocracy.

 Let me tell you how we got our minis ters interested. We asked them if they didn't think they could preach religion to families that owned their home with bet ter results than to renters The result of that simple question was the United Ministerial association preaching ser mons to Oakland on "Buy-a- Home First" And when you tack religion on to an idea based on good, hard, sensible logic, what's the result?
 Grab this, Tom, and shoot it for all you're worth. It's just as big as we make it. The Good Book says: "A little child shall lead them," but it doesn't say that the best way to carry out an idea is not to get every big force behind it. That's why we want you. Affectionately.

MM ANY of the Confederate Veter- HVN ans who attend the reunion in Washington next month will have an opportunity for the first time of visit ing certain of the famous battle grounds. Especially will this be true of the old soldiers who live in remote sections of the territory which formed the Confederacy, who have yet to see the dome of the capitol. Even those men who fought under the "stars and
 bars," and who are familiar with

Of course, the leader of such silly move ment Is excused on the ground of ignor- ance. Sometimes one who has tasted of political office, and the powers which go with it, is led to believe that he can use a club in business as he could use it in politics But the failure will be as ridiculous as that of his attempt at Shakespearian comedy.

 But there are only two or three of these narrow minded merchants of the several score of those in Birmingham. .
 It is true that the merchants of Bir- have had two hard years. Very few of them have made any money in that time. But now that the pay rolls of this district are greater than they have ever been in its history and a period of mill and manufacturing construction to supply the government with war ma terial is to begin here within the month, they will prosper. and prosper as they have never before. They should prepare for it in large purchases of goods, es- pecially of that class used by the women folks.
 There will be an exodus of young men from Birmingham going into the army and navy, but there will be an influx of builders, engineers and high-class labor CTS, mechanics and artisans. Salaries and wages have been constantly increasing,
