Robbers Don't Worry Tulsa

Collect insurance rather than close the house for funeral ser vices for one or more employees seems to be the policy of the Tulsa banks with regard to possible bank robberies on a large scale. For there are no machine gun em- placements in any of the banks and it is not likely that any em- ploye, except the night watchman will be found to be toting gat.
 But the bankers don't seem to worry much about their "help- lessnesS.
 They explain this fact by indi- eating large steel vaults, perhaps several feet thick, where the valu- ables repose after night. Most of these vaults are of the time lock type, and it is likely that the buildings where he banks are housed would also be wrecked if enough explosives were used to jar loose one of the big vault doors.
 It is also pointed out that with so many windows" and such large forces as are employed by the Tulsa banks big steal would be almost impossible to any force less than at least a platoon of rob bers.-Tulsa World.

Can Stand Prosperity

Among the various contrlbu- tory causes for the constantly mounting cost of everything we eat, wear or otherwise use, includ. ing the dwellings in which we live there appears one which deserves stressing because, being more or less unpleasant to the average taste, 1t is apt to be rejected or ig nored with the facility which hu- manitycustomarily exhibits in it's discarding of unpleasant truths.
 There is almost an universal tendency among us to buy what we really cannot afford-and real lydo not at all need-just because some one else is the possessor of it, and because also, we have the money in hand, or in prospect, with which to purchase it.
 Self-analysis will reveal to vir- tually every one of us a tendency toward extravaganza which has grown In many cases beyond all control, and has become so much a habit that 1t is second nature and will require determined effort to curb, at least so long as the period of the relatively easy mon- ey continues.
 Buying, of every sort. there must and will be, but the imposi- tion of self-created check upon the tendency to be extravagant is obviously a vital need of the hour. Seemingly both sexes, all ages and every race here resident Is guilty, and few if any will es- cape the ultimate payment of the penalty which the eventual swing of the economic pendulum will surely bring about.-Ohio State Journal.

Permanent Army of 500,000 Is
 Too Big, Says Pershing

Washington. Oct. 31.-Disagree- ing with war department recom- mendations for a permanent army of 500,000 men. General Pershing today told a joint meeting of the Senate and House military com mitteeS that he thought the num- Der could be placed at an out, side figure of 275,000 to 100000 and possibly less.
 The general said the regular ar my should be sufficient to protect the nation against sudden attack and meet America s international obligations both on the American continent and elsewhere, and that this should be backed up by a trained citizen reserve.
 The cost of maintaining a large army the General said, was an ele- ment which in his opinion would make 1t impracticable to set the figure any higher.
 The General made a plea that the nation keep abreast of other countries in development of the air service and said 1t was also essential that the transport corps nurse corps and tank corps be made adequate. He thought the number of officers of high rank provided for in pending legisla- tion was rather excessive o

Judge Anderson's order to the Officers

Washington November S.-Refusal OF
Chairman Gary of the United States Steel
corporation to meet union representatives
and the determination of the American
Federation of Labor to organize the steel
industry, rather than any complaint OF

In its report, submitted to the Senate
today. the committee characterized ali
strikes as industrial barbarism.' and
recommended establishment of a perma-

mer war labor board as a means of set
Ting industrial disputes. The board
should have, the committee said powers
of compulsory investigation, admitting it
to all facts. but compulsory arbitration
was not recommended.
