Oh other men abroad may ride and tour the smiling

REPUBLICAN MAJORITY IN
CONGRESS HAS IT'S WORRIES

The Republican majority in Con-
,gress appears to continue in state
of quiescent agitation over the ques-
tion of taxes.
The Senate majority is worrying
but little for two reasons. One is
that Boies Penrose, chairman of the
committee ON finance, is still busy Gre
forming" Philadelphia, and, incident
ally, fighting for his political life and
prestige; and has no time to devote to
such trifles as carrying out Repub-
lican campaign promises anent reduc-
ing the cost of living. In his absence
of his party colleagues dares move.
The other reason for Senate apathy
is the conflict over the League of
Nations.
Consequently all the worry is trans
ferred to the heads and shoulders of
Representative Frank w. Mondell, Re
publican floor leader, and Joseph w.
Fordney, chairman of the ways and
committee, who are responsible prim-
marily fo rsuch Legislation in the
lower House of Congress, where all
such bills must have their inception.
These gentlemen apparently have
good cause to worry as the Repub
lican House already has appropriat-
ed two billion dollars more than the
taxes and other forms of revenue will
bring in for the fiscal year.
Having pledged the people to re-
duce or eliminate the socalled luxury
taxes, and being unable to do so, the
Republican leaders now find themsel-
YES in the position of having to retain
these taxes and add few more in or
der to meet the governmental expend
itures they themselves have voted.
The irony of the situation is made
particularly jarring because it was on
these luxury taxes that the Repbuli
cans had planned to play their very
best partisan politics. The Democrat
ic House of the last Congress had
passed bill repeating the luxury tax
,es, it had been reported out by the Sen
ate finance committee, and, by a gent
lemen's agreement was to be given
right Oh way during the closing days
of the session. But when Senator Sim
mJns attempted to secure the floor he
found that gentleman's agreements
were of little value when matched a.
gainst party politics. The bill was lost
in the filibuster conducted by Senat-
ators La Follete and Sherman ,Repub--
licans, largely because their party
leaders decided such a popular bit Of
legislation as abolishing the luxury
taxes should be reserved for the spec
ial session which the Republicans
would control.
The Republican claim of saving
of billion and a half dollars in the
first six weeks of the special session
was quickly dissipated by the Demo-
cratic leaders; so much so that it
has not been advanced since. The fact
as the Republican Congress
men regreetfully admit, that the only |
luxury tax they have repealed has
been that on ice cream and soda, and
their partisan colleagues in the SEN
ate decline to pass that, so glory is
literally efferYescent.

BIG MEN AND LITTLE FELLOWS


an ATTEMPT was made in Congress to spend
II $4,000 of the government funds for the pur-
pose Of presenting General Pershlng with
gold sword. :.
der with wooden leg was in Washington who was
unable to collect cent of the insurance that was due
him for the loss of his leg.
We do net begrudge Pershlng gold sword, or
any other kind of trnket, if he wants it.
But we do believe in paying the debts that are
due the private soldiers who sacrificed everything
serve their country and we believe in paying those
debts before any money is spent Pershlng or any
other general who drew fat salary and lived in COM
fort while the enlisted men existed in discomforts
too soul racking for description. z
There is no one entitled to more credit and none
is more endowed with the attributs of hero, than
the man behind the gun and the junior officer who
went over the top with him. He it was who went
bravely into the jaws of death with a smile on his
face, and who stoica1y puffed at cigarette as his
mangled form was borne to the rear.
He asked for no reward and, to our undylng
shame, he has received none-from the government.
Spadomic attempts have been made by few
members of Congress to secure some adequate rec
ogniton for these brave men, but all such endeavors
have ended in a fizzle
There are many of those young men in our own
community who have served their country well, and
have been discharged from the army and promptly
forgotten.
Is this to be an era of rewarding the big man and
forgetting the little fellow?
If so, let us at least have the honesty to say so
when we hand out rewards.
Camouflage served its purpose in France, but
there is no occasion for employing it in this country
in times of peace.

1t is only little to give, but great in posi-
In few minutes each day you can keep the rub
bsh out of your yard and the fences in repair, and
the shade trees trimmed and the walks repaired and
in good condition. And when you return from your
daily labors at night you will notice clean healthy
atmosphere-you will hardly know your own home.
Then few minutes each day and you will have
many new conveniences in the kitchen, and the pan
try, and in the basement And your wife, who MAX
es home attractive for you, will know that you are
mindful of her welfare
few minutes each day will transform dirty,
sloveny town into spot of beauty, of sanity and Of
sanitation.
1t will do all this and more.
A few minutes each day is such little thing to
give, but the possibilities of it's future are so preg
nant with results as to be beyond compute in the in
fancy of its consummation
Every citizen of this town could give few min

the advancement of the material interests of the m
