Is the plan outlined:

daylight saving until last Saturday
OF October. On that date he will
reverse the process, turning back the
hands Of the clock an hour and the
next day the nation again will run
on "sun" time.
In the summer the American man
actually will rise. transact his daily
business and retire all an hour earl
Ter than has been his custom, but
with his clock an hour fast he will
not know the difference. An hour
Of daylight thus will be conserved in
the afternoon.
The plans practicability and efiici-
ency have been effectively demon
strated in twelve European coun-
tries. Advocates Of the plan in pre-
senting their case 20 Congress ex-
planned that the following benefi-
cial results would be achieved by the

as oil, gas and electric power.
Marked conservation Of coal.

tion as the result Of improvements
In working conditions.

The Inevitable Wait.

There is one cry that may expect to be raised
against the good roads bond issue which the
will be asked 10 approve tomorrow 1t is the one
that narrow. hide-bound people have used to delay
every good thing that has come along: Somebody
is going 10 get something out of it."
In this case. if the roads are made of concrete
it Will be the cement trust II they are constructed
Of brick it viii be the brick If the road
is built past Jones' farm Smith will kick because
Jones is being benefited more than he is.
Such arguments as that constitute effective
bar 10 all progress. II is reasonably certain that
either concrete or brick viii be used in most of the
proposed construction 1t is obvious that the hard
roads that s600O0O00 will provide cannot be
stretched to every corner of the state
For exhorbitant profits we have government regu-
Iations as a remedy Application depends largely on
the kind Of men We elect 10 office Probably the
contractors viii make profit and so will those who
furnish the material II is the business of public
officers 10 see that neither is unreasonable.
We can hardly wait for good roads till the profit
is taken out of public works. We need them now.
Automobile ownegs. under existing laws, will pay
fees enough in the 20 years to build them, pro-

The Dearth OF Doctors.

More and more letters from read
ers Of this column refer to the alb
sence of the family doctor in the
service Of the country. Is there a
dearth of doctors?
According to the most recent re-
liable census there are 146,5O0 ply
sicians in America serving 106, 543,-
BIZ people, and Of these physicians
there are 75,4SS under the age of
IS years. Oct. u, 1918, there were
so, $50 physicians serving as medi-
cal officers in the United States
army and navy, and since June l
nearly 5000 more have made appii-
cation for commission in the medi-
cal reserve corps and the u. S. ma
val reserve force. The surgeon
general of the u. S. army has esti-
mated that 10000 physicians Will
be needed this year. That Will
mean that one OF every five physi-
clans in the country will be re-
quired to serve our fighting forces.
The authorities intend to use
careful judgment TO avoid stripping
smaller villages and country dis
tricts Of their necessary tmedical
men. No community is going tC
suffer. In the larger towns and
cities, where hospitals serve a con-
siderable share Of the population,
fully half the doctors could well he
spared for a few years without Sc
Tiously mountaineering anybody.
But nevertheless there is a grave

danger. When real doctors are
scarce, the kind of doctors the gov
eminent has use for, when good
doctors are difficult to find, then the
uneducated pretenders, the unquali-
ed healers, the quacks and the fax
ers have a richer field to work. The
public has an easy going way of
assuming that any healer who dares
TO hang out his shingle and bid for
patronage ais necessarily qualified
under the law to practice the heal
ing art, irrespective of the methods
he employs. Alas, this is far from
the truth. What the general public
assumes the authorities have sane
toned, the authorities, as a matter
Of fact, care nothing about. Think
il over. Can you recall a single in
stance of the authorities Of their
own Volition prosecuting an unli-
censed practitioner before they
were driven to duty by some scan
IaI or other?

Our Responsibility.

Everybody knows what terrible plight Russia is
in brought about by the disIntegrating influences
set free by war Austria and Turkey, it seems plain,
are rapidly heading toward a similar state, while
Germany is not free from the same sort of danger
We do not know how far the reaction against auto
cratic control may go We that it is the peo-
pies righp to rule Russia has shown however that
de7Iorable results inevitably follow too sudden
shift in authority
The United States stands at the head of the
forces which have broken the hold Of autocracy and
forced the pendulum of international politics to start
its swing toward the other extreme. If we take
credit for the good out OF it must also
accept responsibility the evil that will result il
the forces We helped to set free go too far The
license of the masses in Russia is justified
than the license Of the classes which preceded it, and
the former is far more terrible in its immediate re-
suits.
1t is a grave task that and our allies are fac
ing and the weight Of mainly upon the coun-
try which, through its president has laid down the
basic principles of reconstruction.
This country is committed a broad general line
OF action Those fighting with us have approved of
it. It's fairness appealed from the beginning, even
to our enemies and made ultimate moral victory
over them certain though the decision by force
Of arms were less decisive.
We cannot repudiate pledges now without
surrendering our position of world leadership.
Neither can we afford weaken the hand of the ad-
ministration upon which rests such fearful re-
sponsibility We must elect tomorrow a congress
that will be WITH and against, President Wilson
in carrying out the program to which we are com
mitted.
That means the reelection of James Hamilton
Lewis as senator from Illinois, and the defeat Of
Medil Mccormick. Republican candidate for that Of
