righteousness helping to tie the hands
of the Government and aiding that
other close friend of the Lord, the
German Kaiser, to achieve victory
for his particular brand of virtue.
Mr.. Hoover points out what has
been pointed out many times before,
that the legislation which Congress
seems determined to wreck is design
ed to protect farmers, and consumers
alike. The only persons who object
to it are those who want to exploit
or plumber the people. 1t is the peo-
pies bill, and the people should take
the matter up and make Congress
tremble before their wrath. A postal
card costs onlv one cent. Congress
men who are defying the people
should receive two or three million
postal cards written in red ink and
red language in the next few days
They will know what that means.

islation is strongly set forth in Mr..
Hoover's letter to the President. We
do not expect it to produce much eff

House and of the Senate seem to be
more concerned in catering to special
theories and special interests-to up
filters of morals on the one hand and
to speculative uplifters Of prices on
the other-than in taxing care of the
country or the people. In the face
of real dangers we see the Senate
postponing vote on the food bill

hairs and opposing interference with

had the unique title OF 'suzps Matazus."

and admittedly a bold experiment in
playwriting. Mr.. Harris produced IL.
and 1t did not succeed. Mr.. Harris mad

as being such a novelty that he was
anxious to try the experiment
To Mr.. Harris. the failure OF the play
was entirely unexpected. but to Mr.. Eyre
il meant a great deal The fact that II

Mr.. Harris attempted to persuade Mr..
