For the general public the resignation
Of William G. McAdoo, secretary Of the
Treasury and director general Of rail
roads, comes as complete surprise. In
view of this fact, there will be more or
less speculation concerning his plans for
the future and the motives which prompt
ed his resignation at critical hour in the
history of the great struggle.
In the absence Of any other evidence
the nation is bound to accept the explain
alton of Mr.. McAdoo to the effect that it
is prompted solely from the desire to re-
enter private life. His action is the more
surprising because Of the fact that he has
been generally accepted as a contender
for the Democrat nomination in the next
presidential race.
The resignation coming at this time
would seem to indicate the end Of the Nc
Adoo presidential boom, as well as his Of
fetal connection with the present admin
istration. If Mr.. McAdoo is still an as
pirant for the presidency, he makes,
mistake in leaving the administration at
this time. In the past he has been given
llndividede support with the result that
he was bound to be successful.
Nevertheless, he cannot hope to perpe-
tuate whatever popularity has accrued to
him by retiring ct the moment when his
work becomes most important. The test
OF the ability Of the secretary Of the
treasury as well as that Of the director
general Of railroads lies in the future. At
least one and possibly two more Liberty
bond issues are to be floated. The indus
trial and financial readjustments which
confront this nation now demand wisdom
and judgment. As result, it is easily
seen that the real crisis in Nc Ado0's Of
fices has not passed with the war. The
secretary Of war and the secretary of
the navy might feel that they had passed
the crisis, but the secretary Of the treas
ury and the secretary Of state still have
the period Of trial before them.
When Mr.. McAdoo became director
general Of railroads, the country at large
felt that he one too many jobs. While it
is apparent that Mr.. McAd0o feels he has
completed his service by his country in
these important responsibilities, it is
clear that the work has only just begun.
The financial program Of United tSates
is important to the future welfare of the
nation. The financing of the war was q
simple process as compared with the task
involved in the readjustment.
The same may be said Of the railroads.
They have been completely scrambled and
now the cook proposes to leave. Some
other man must undertake the task which
baffled all the kings horses and all the
kings men Of Humpty- Dumpty's time.
These conditions are bound to make them
selves felt on whatever remains Of the
McAdoo presidential boom. While It is
true that Mr.. McAdoo leaves his post
when he has reached the pinnacle Of his
popularity, it Is also true that he cannot
hold this popularity In reserve for future
political use.
In the eyes q the people he has left ~

TESTING THE, IDEALS

80 !
TESTING THE IDEALS
Freely the world admits that Ameri-
ca PLAYED a conspicuous part. in speeding
the conclusion Of the world war. No one
in America pretends to claim that the
United States ended the war. Our posi-
ton today is that Of having supplied the
balance Of power necessary to stop the
rampage Of the Hun. Without the help
Of Great Britain, it is doubtful II the Un-
tied States could have undertaken this
role in the time taken.
Certain it is that America could not
have transported her troops to Europe
in such great numbers without British
chipping. In the face of this fact we are
bound to admit that Great Britain's sea
power was one Of the strongest influenc-
es in bringing the world struggle to an
end. Without this support, America could
not have furnished the men and mater
ials which supplied the balance OF power
to bring the Hun to his knees.
The allies have passed this stage Of CO.
operation in world affairs and now they
look to the future not for the harmony
Of defensive war but for the perpetual
ton of themselves. Under the stress OF
war certain ideals were promulgated as
the basis Of future world peace. In
these discussions there was little or no
antag0nism to the general plan because
the nations at the time were more con-
cerned with the welfare Of the whole than
the future Of any particular power.
In the change that has come with the
signing Of the armistice, national ambi-
ton has supplanted the harmony Of uii-
ity. Where we had cooperation we niw
have conception. The ideals Of yestef-
day are viewed in different lights in dit
ferent parts Of the world. The allied ma
lions are concerned with national advan-
tage and disadvantage. None OF these
nations is quite ready to sacrifice IS own
particular strength to strengthen the as
aociation. They are agreed only in those
principles which will protect the whole
from q common enemy.
In the light Of this logic it is not
strange that Great Britain should frown
upon the reduction Of ornaments It 1t
means that she must reduce her sea pow
er. BY the stern lessons Of war she has
learned that her protection lies in supre-
macy on the seas and she is not going to
be easily persuaded that her welfare. lies
in any other direction. The time Of CO.
operation is passing and Great Britain
clings to the theory that she must protect
her own To this. end she will cling to
her strength, so long as that strength can
demand its preservation
So it is that the peace council faces a
huge task as it undertakes to put into
practice the ideals espoused before the
cessation Of hostilities. Each nation
prides itself on some particular quality
or strength and it cannot freely forego
the benefits. The hope Of the peace con-
ference lies in it's ability to compromise
these national virtues so that all may
profit by the readjustment Of world
and the changes in the moral
code Of the univer.se.-Salt Lake Herald.

Dear Mrs. Bush:
Your chapter has received, no
doubt, by now or will receive very
shortly its allotment with direc-
tions) of the large amount of knitting
to be done by the Gulf Division by
August 18th. These have been in a
careful manner proportionately, and
therefore equally, divided among all
chapters in our division.
:c.l sure that you will cooperate
with us in getting this work COM
pleted within the specified time, but
| am writing to ask you to give it
your personal attention and see that
wool is given only to the workers that
will conform exactly to the Red Cross
directions and to see that only such
WORK leaves your chapter. Up to
date, in the case of socks, We have
had quite a bit of trouble with toes
that have been incorrectly joined.
These we have had to turn yer to
our repair shop to correct before we
could ship them out-and this, as
you can easily see, takes time which
ought to be applied to other valuable
work.
am sure that you understand that
we ask this of you because it is, in
turn, demanded of us by Washington.
Your former good will and support
assures US, however, that the Gulf
Division will be second to none in
its good work and efficiency. | sin
cerely thank you and hope that you
will call on me personally If | can ba
of any assistance to you,
Very cordially yours,

Oak was the wood first used in
tables then walnut came into general
s in the middle of the seventeenth
century. An early form Of table was
the chair table, convenient because 1t
served the purpose of a seat when the
top was lifted and stood against the
side Of the room. But gradually the
table took It's present form and use.
II became the custom to leave the
board upon the trestle instead Of re-
moving both, and in time the piece Of
