MORAL LAWS AND STATUTES.

Former United states SENATOR DePo", ~
New York, believes that national prohlpllloh
goes too far and is certain to promote Tue
spread of bolshevism by making the WorhliiS
man feel that his personal liberties are autocrat
ically and needlessly abridged There seems "
be no question that this is So Men VINO tliiiA
for themselves. as most Americans do on mat
tiers that Immediately concern them, are ho'
easily reconciled to restrictions put upon them
unless something within them tells them that
such laws are necessary and right. Criminals
who rob and murder realize the justice OF the
laws thew break. No thinking person does not
know in his heart that it is wrong to steal and
kill Another class of laws like those against
smuggling and poaching or making wager at
IA horse race are not to all minds self evident
lv needful and right; and many persons violate
them without any distressing conviction OF SIN
And vet there is yet another class of laws
which compos mentis citizens feel to be invas-
i've of their natural rights. Men who know
anything know that attempts to shackle their
minds and impose beliefs upon them are utterly
uniustifable They know that some so-called
blue laws like those against decorous re-
creation or travel on Sunday are indefenslble
in principle They know that tire is no more
sinfuness in the temperate use OF wine than IN
the use of waffles or walnuts, and they resent
a statute which calls it a crime as an lmpudent
interference with their natural rights as mem
bers of the human race 1t is laws of this kind
which bring all laws into contempt Wise men
worthy to be law makers do not pass them; for
to call an act crime which is not crime and
to punish as a sin an act which is not a sin
arouses more resentment than anything else
government can do. Senator Depew is clearly
in his apprehension that attempt to
make the country absolutely dry would aggra-
vate immensely the existing unrest.

A WORLD OF CIPHERS.

Among the engaging writers who preach So
cialism under one gulse or another, ID. G Nells
is pre-eminent. He writes interestingly al
WAYS; he is logical once his premise Is admit
ted and he undoubtedly means something that
has motive of good will toward men, But all
this does not save him from the omissions OF all
the socialists; he tells what he is after but not
how the difficulties in the way OF it are 10 De
overcome Just now he sees the whole world
in the process of pronouncing the doom OF the
ego" 1t is dangerous to attempt diagnosis
of Mr. Wells mental states because they are so
many and they shift so swiftly that by the time
one is clearly understood it has given place to
another. But just now he apparently thinks
society which is founded by and on individuals
and individuality Is failure; and that it is a
right thing to do to make mixture of individ-
uals called the social state He is going to leave
no 'egos;'' he is going after corporate some
thing. But how this mixture of shifting sands
devoid of individual character is to he made or
is to work, he does not tell nor does any social
list writer tell.
Take away individuality and there remains
a human cipher. Produce world full of hu-
man ciphers and what is the result? Certainly
not force to keep the world going concern.
Moreover, Mr.. Wells knows that ciphers take
their value from the figure that stands before
them He knows that after his egoless ciphcrs
were marshaled, some figure would stand before
them and lead them and direct them: that Tins
there would come an international autocracv bio

FIGHT FOR DAYLIGHT SAVING

Arthur Lehman, treasurer OF the
committee, in statement, said:
1T seems almost inconceivable
that, after the successful experience
of last year in lengthening the hours
of daylight, there should be an at
tempt on the part OF congress to re-
peal this law. The attempt to repeal
this law is not being made In the
open, but is in the shape of rider
to the agricultural appropriation DILL
now before the house of representa-
tives.
"The plan was adopted in 1916 and
1917 by practically every European
country, and in no single instance
has it failed to be readopted in 1918.
and again in 1919. except that l am
not quite sure as to its readoption
by Germany The Canadian gov
eminent did not see fit to re-enact
the daylight saving plan this spring,
but almost every community in the
entire dominion has adopted it un-
officially, and there now exists in
Canada the curious condition OF an
official time. set by the government
and an unofficial time adopted by
the railroads and practically every
community.
1T would be great detriment to
trade conditions to have the differ
ence in time between New York and
the European capitals OF London and
Paris six hours instead Of as is at
present the case, five hours. This
difference would. of course, result If
the clocks in the European coun-
! tries were changed during the sum
mer months, and ours We're not.
/ Those who seem to be seriously op-
posed to daylight saving are some
of the farmers, and the reasons given
by this element for repeal are neither
cogent nor conclusive. On the other
hand. labor. almost to man, is
