Home Loan Banks Opposed
New York Evening cvnl

i've" 1OTh evening SSnI
An extension of the use of the
credit and banking resources of the
Federal Government was-and will
be-a necessary outcome of the
changed conditions and of our new
place in the worlds business. To
some extent such expansion is in
evitable even as to purely domes-
tic matters. But a line should be
drawn somewhere. There is dan
ger of OVERRIDING it, to the detriment
of sound financing. A timely warn
ing is given in the protest made by
Mr.. John J. Pulleyn, president of
the Emigrant Industrial Savings
Bank, in criticism of the scheme for
a Federal home loan" bank. Said
he:
"a serious and dangerous matter
threatens the business of the mu-
tual savings institutions in the cre-
alton of the proposed Federal home
loan banks to be formed and used
by building and loan associations.
The seriousness of this departure is
that in many States these associa-
tions have sidetracked their home
building function and are in fact
veritable savings banks. The legis-
lative proposals entirely disregard
existing private agencies and would
replace them by the Government,
many of them vitality affecting saw
ings banks"
The gist of the objection is that
the newfangled scheme is unneces-
sary as well as potentially danger
Gus. The savings banks have re-
sources of about $4,000, 900, 900
owned by over nine million depos-
itors. They are amply able to meet
legitimate normal demands.
From another angle the thing
looks like the creation of a new
and quite ous-bureaucracy
in Washington; an extension of the
Federal paw in a new direction,
with the consequent creation of a
new horde of office holders, expen-
sive administration, and all the
evils of too much governmental
meddling probably muddling.
AS Mr.. Pulleyn asks: 'Tf we are
going to organize a permanent bu-
reau in Washington whenever tenn
porary need arises, what kind of a
topheavy political structure will ex-
ist there?"
Nor is there any sound reason to
think it would help to solve the
housing problem. The only real So
luton of that is the return to nor
NAL action of the laws of supply
and demand. We already have far
too many Washington monkey
wrenches thrown into the machin-
cry of business to regulate" it. It
will be well to stop and think be-
fore creating more Government bu-
reauS.

The Place to AdDertiSe

lF'rom the Philadelphia Record
An advertisement of a technical
journal in a recent issue of Printers
Ink begins with the interesting in
quiry: Would you reach Green
land and Patagonia with the same
medium" This naturally suggests
the question:: why reach Green
land and Patagonia at all? Why
pay for circulation in places where
you have no facilities for delivering
the goods?"
Advertising through the daily
newspaper can be concentrated
where it will do the most good.
Newspaper advertising makes pos
sible the selection of the most profit
able markets, and the elimination of
fields that are so poor that they are
not worth cultivating. 1t does
away with Improbable and misdi-
rected effort.

EkTTTE r HAVE won the war, but
" w we have lost our liberties, >
Samuel Gompers is quoted
as having said in Philadelphia on
Saturday.
With all due respect to Mr.. Com
,pers, we have done nothing of the
sort. Public thought is a greater
tforce in the United States at this
moment than ever before, and no.
body knows that better than he.
Mr.. Gompers spoke bewailing the
Ezdoption of prohibition and the pass
Dage of an anti-sedition law in Penn
Rylvania.
Mr.. Gompers won the respect of
the American people during the war
and has shown himself to be force
ful leader of men, but he will lose
what he has attained in public
Dopinion if he continues to defend
rthe bar-room and to oppose such
measures as the sedition act.
We are TO have national prohibi-
rtion because the people voted to
nhave it. Rum never was an agent
lof liberty. Always it has been an
instrument of corruption and op-
!pression. Anybody familiar with
dhe course of legislation in the past
rquarter century knows that, and as
for it's effect on the working man.
Show can q man of Mr.. Gompers'
pretensions defend the curse it has
laid upon millions of homes, the
ruin it has wrought in industry and
dhe prosperity it has blighted? No.
I'VE have not lost our liberties, we
ARE just beginning to exercise them.
The sedition act is directed
bagainst nobody but the revolution
list No Pennsylvania jury would
convict under it on any other ground.
Mr.. Gompers evidently has been
.misinformed as to it, or he is play
ing party politics with labor sympa-
thies, a thing which is unbelievable
,of a labor leader of such vast re-
.sponsibilities and so widely trusted.

THIRD FLU WAVE" NOT HERE.

Will Reeur in Year or Less.

Iowa City. Feb. The increase in
the number of influenza cases thruout
the state is not the third wave" pre-
dicted by physicians, according to Dr..
Henry Albert. state bacteriologist and
professor at the University of Iowa.
The third wave will probably come
after several months or a year in his
opinion. Just now the epidemic has
spent its force. Most susceptible per-
sons have contracted it and are now
immune. Some communities. however,
have only been touched by the cpl
demo and from time 10 time now out
breaks will fare up.
Had concentration in army camps
not made influenza spread quickly the
recent epidemic would not have been
so costly in lives. The virulence of
any bacteria, DR.. Albert states. is en-
HANGED where that disease has the
opportunity to spread quickly. With
the DECLINE OF rapid transmission. the
disease becomes less serious in its
effects.
