Whitewashina the Soviets

The intelectuals" the truth Russia committee" are going to give q favorable picture of the soviet government as they obtain it." Therein is an admission that they not yet in possession Of it. that they only ordered the necessary vhtewash. They know, however, that the picture though they have not it. will be good enc because that is the kind of picture for which the commission given.
 In looking the personnel of this committee We find the are all familiar-those of eminent pacifists and Instructors of the war. The New Re public the Nation and the Dial are all represented We should expect them to be in a movement of this sort all of which shows that blood is thicker than water among socialists Though they may diff fer in degree, sympathy is extinct. In other words, they are all to some extent tarred with the same stick and all are against the existing order for one reason and some for another and if for no other reason, because the order is old and they want something new something that has not been shopworn by trial experience or even experimenting
 This committee could not give the soviet govern ment a clean bill health even if it deserved it. The committee itself does stand purged of the very evil things think of the soviets. We cannot help thinking that if the members of the committee in Russia they would be loud and wild bolshev- ists and a boshevist is boshevist wherever he may be. He knows territorial boundaries he is held in check only by fear.
 Nevertheless will await with mpatence the production of the perfect soviet government, model which suppose shall be invited to copy and live up Lenne will be glorified as the Washington of his country and his time

The Great Beginning

There never was d business-li like meeting than the Good Roads conference which ended a two day session yesterday afternoon. There were two reasons why it One was that the conference was composed of who accustomed to the transaction of business They were men who were representative of their respective communities. all men of affairs and it may be said, leading men of their ncighborhoods They were, happily. all men
 who interested in the subject of good roads They were appointed by recognized bodies solely because of their peculiar fitness. Not of them chosen because he was democrat or a republican,
 And right here is a reason why so many in fact, we may say all elected deliberative bodies far n- teror to the good roads conference. The former chosen with regard to their party politics and not their fitness, personal character ability, their standing in their communities.
 So striking is the contrast between the conference and say the average legislature chosen along political lines that all must be impressed and all should be inclined resolve that again should politics be considered in the selection of agent for the trans action Of important business And particularly should the people resolve that politics shall be effectuay baErcd from every phase of highway construction; that that great work shall be carried free from politics the great conference which has out
 lined a system of construction Then will have good roads, good roads have for the money eApeuucd
 We have spoken of a second reason for the sue of the meeting It that all the delegates together with single aim, however divergent might be their opinions regarding the ways of reaching it. Those differences were minor. On the main points Ill were agreed; that must have system of mod roadways; that it will cost money and that must be prepared to spend much money may be necessary to the system; that it should be secured at the earliest moment because need the roads and because thousands of men need immediate employment And lastly that all these things be realized only through board of competent freed affiliations which ordinarily divert trusted with public funds and the transaction of pub lie business from straightforward business like course.
 Having these things in mind it is not strange that the conference made a record from which will be dated great progressive constructive movement in Arizona. The members of the conference in years will remember with greater pride than that of membership in any legislature that they were mem- bers the good roads conference that Phoenix January 27-2S 1919.

The Minimum Waqe Bill

We have doubt that a majority of those Y no voted against the minimum wage bill yesterday did so because they believed that it's effect upon workers would be contrary that intended. Perhaps votes cast against it by those who chemically opposed to labor legislation who steadily opposed 10 labor. On both sides many ir relevant things said there too much of q discussion of psychology and of dimly seen contin gencies
 It was unnecessary, think, 10 consider the ef- feet of bill in connection with the welfare ot employers They would any event have been able take care of themselves under such legislation They could have taken the simple accepting the added expense which they would have passed along the public all costs operation large and small disposed of. That is probably the thing they would have done very properly, and if that would have been the end of it and the purposes of the promoters of the bill had this attained all would have been we'll The public would in the slightest degree such an added expense
 But that would not have been the end of it. in all likelihood. There is many girl and working the present minimum wage of s1O who her em- poyer thinks is worth that much to him, but moro. She serves his purpose in that position just as well a girl who would bring more efficiency into larger position. In case the enl- ployer should be required to pay $2O even s16 a week, he would choose to pay it to one whom he had rated as s1O employe. He would pay employe with efficiency with surplus efficiency for it is weakness of human that we ali want 10 get all we can for our money whether need it all
 The result would be that the least efficient en- ployes would be crowded back and out It would also result that beginning in employment would be diff ficult. No employer would to break in" q girl at wage which would attract already broken in" This would affect and girls at the en- trance of almost every avenue of employment It would especially affect shop girls and phers and those in all lines in which added efficiency would induce promotion good stenographer may easily receive S17o month.

AS TO THE TRAPPINes OF WOE

tcuar reference to the English middle classes) who take a bland and solmen pleasure in the details of death and disaster-who glad assume an air of what they call Christian resignation,' and who de- light in funerals and blacIledged paper Regu- lar church goers very frequently particular about this last outward sign and token of the hearts incurable sorrow; some choose narrow black edge as being less obtrusive but more subtle-other a broad, emblematic of utter hopelessness.
