The Post is in receipt of many COM
pliments, both oral and written, from
those who read its pages weekly and
who appreciate our efforts along the
line of giving them the news. We find
that those who seem most thoroughly
to appreciate the paper are those who
have lived in Glenwood and havc
moved to other parts, retaining pleas
ant memories of the associations formed
while residents of this city. To them
the Post is more than a welcome visitor,
bringing them each week the news of
those they knew and n record of the
happenings of the community in gen
eral way. OF this number are Edward
Kopp and Mrs. Kopp, nee Alice Oar

Glenwood, but now of Chicago, who
are glad to attest their appreciation
by the following complimentary letter:

New-York tribune., 1919-12-31

Senator Lodge while pulling his full
share Of the ratification load is hard
ly calculated to make him persist in
virtue.
Why doesn't Mr.. Taft say in
straight-out man-fashion that the
President is the sole remaining OBJ
stacle; that he made a mess of the
negotiation and Is now making a
hash Of ratification? Mr.. Taft knows
this as we'll as any one. He also
knows that were the League to En-
force Peace, disregarding all thought
of partisanship, to lecture the Presi-
dent as assiduously as others have
lectured, the President would prob
ably yield and settlement would be
quickly arrived at.
New-York tribune., 1919-12-31
MIR. Taft's Latest

Mr.. Taft, in his latest contribution
to the public's education, seems to
have reached the conclusion that the
blame for ratification is with the
President. Some time ago Mr.. Taft
acknowledged the need Of reserva-
tions and practically accepted the
Lodge draft. So he is logically
driven to acquit Senator Lodge and
to lay responsibility on the no-com-
promise policy of the White House
But, having reached conclusion
that reflects credit on both his can
dor and his perspicacity. Mr.. Taft
resorts TO queer sort OF campaign
ing in behalf of the treaty. He falls
heavily on Senator Lodge, who in
the main is doing what he wishes,
and becomes so indignant at him as
practically to ignore the fault Of the
President. In view of Senator
Lodges willingness to ratify on
terms which Mr., Taft approves, the
'oism seems unkind. To castigate

the bell, to the hearts knocking re-
mindingly under waistcoats while
Beckett and Carpenter "approached
each other lonely in the ring" Dots
replace the actual blow, following
tho best practice Of tho English
novel in other but similar ollmaxes.
But it was not quite the end:
"Aphrodite, breaking loose in the
shape Of pretty girl 6ien mnQuiilee,
rushed to tho ring. Men raised her
: in their arms, she raised her face;
and Carpenter bent over the ropes
and kissed her passionately amid the
ecstasies Of joy and disillusion that
ragged around chem That kiss seemed
to be tho bright flower Of the affair.
1t summed up everything. Two min
utcs earlier Beckett in his majestic
strength had been the idol Of king
dom. Now Beckett was sack of po-
tatocs, and Carpenter in might and
glory was publicly kissing the chosen
girl within a yard Of the Prince of
Wales"
We hope that If there is another
creation or anything Mr.. Arnold
Bennett has a ringside seat. We
know he will see the things that
everybody else sees and thinks over
and that nobody ever thinks to
write.

Rudeness to the Wounded
Another Case of Brutal Manners

In this way he was forced to let two
cars go by; then, as his chances OF
boarding a car seemed very poor,
escorted him down Broadway a couple
of blocks where there was a chance for
him to get on car without being
knocked down by people who no doubt
would be highly indignant if any one
were to suspect that they were not

stable while the cancer Of organized

stable while the cancer Of organized
Bolshcvism remains.
The world, weary Of struggle, did
not have the virtue to employ it's
power; for the flinching 1t may yet
be called on to pay.
Much is said about the creation
of league to enforce peace. But
Lloyd George, probably against his
personal wish and on no better
ground than that Great Britain
must look to herself first, withdrew
British aid from those in the field
for freedom. Likewise President
Wilson, while verbally most jealous
for America to assume world re-
sponsibilities, refused to ask from
Congress authority to enforce peace.
Yet, if the Bolshevist autocracy is
not in contempt Of the principles Of
the covenant, no power will ever be.
Loud advocates Of the league idea
raise no voice in behalf Of concrete
ly applying the league principle.
Men say one thing in their words
and quite another in their acts.
There is an open disregard of plain
duties to friends of liberty in Rus
sia who have put themselves in
jeopardy Of the Red Terror in the
belief they would not be deserted.
Yet this week at Washington the
State Department gave a friendly
reception to returned diplomat
who has been actively in sympathy
with the Bolshevist tyranny ami has
sought to arrange negotiated
peace whereby the moral support Of
this country will go to Lennc. Is
it strange that one of the difficulties
about securing a ratification Of tho
covenant is the belief that the Ad-
ministration has no intent to make
deeds square with its rhetoric?
New-York tribune., 1919-12-31
Recognizing a Cancer

Visitors to Russia not known as
opponents of Bolshevism come back
to say the blockade helps Leninc
The national feelings Of Russia, it
is said, arc aroused, which Lenine
capitalizes. Perhaps, so far as the
immediate future is concerned, the
critics are right. Half intervention
has done little practical good.
Yet the argument has a familiar
smell. 1t recalls the days when we
were told not to say hard things of
the Kaiser. "You poor FOOLS" it was
said, don't you realize that you lead
the Germans to unite?" The thing
to do, it was urged, was to persuade
the Germans they were not to be
Crushed" and then trust to their
native goodness.
Lenine is we'll known to the world.
He was first generally heard of
when the German government for
warded him on a special train to
Russia. Arrived in Petrograd he
spent German money to induce Rus
sia to betray loyal allies and to scut-
tie from the defense of civilization.
He preached mutiny and an opening
of the Russian lines. Next, setting
himself up as new car, he dis
persed with machine guns an assem-
bly, the Russian people had freely
elected to write constitution. Then
he signed a treaty with Germany
which betrayed Poles, Let's, Lithua-
mans, Firms and Ukrainians to Ger
many. When Central Russia OBJ
Jected to starvation he launched an
atrocity campaign that shamed even
the Germans and made the tyranny
of Ivan the Terrible seem bcnevo-
lent. In the last chapter, untrue to
the communist principles he pro
fessed, he has been cringing before
the worlds money power, Offering
any concessions or privileges it
might desire if only his arbitrary
power were recognized"
The American people unanimous
ly responded to President Wilson's
declaration which proclaimed never
ending hostility to tyranny. Be-
tween democracy and autocracy
there can be no compromise-be-
tween America and Lenine no
friendship. The voice of prudence
comedies with that of morality.
Lenine's word is not good, as has
been shown over and over again.
Representing the barbarism of
malcvolent force, he awaits but an
other opportunity. He may not soon
attack us, but beneath his paw he
would have Russia's border peoples.
Make no mistake: Peace will be un>,
New-York tribune., 1919-12-31
The Bryan Abb

1t is becoming more and more
evident that the Democratic party
is seeking new orientation and
new leadership. The most striking
symptom of that change of view is
the temperance of Mr.. Bryan. A
year ago--even six months ago
the Commoner seemed to have been
crowded clear off the stage. He
had no national following. He had
been relegated to obscurity even
in his own state-Nebraska.
Now he is to appear at the Jack
son Day dinner in Washington,
where undiscouraged Democratic
aspirants for the Presidential nomi-
nation are to be gathered. He is
himself reckoncd among the can
didatcs. Democratic newspapers, to
whom his sudden emergence is a
cause for apprehension, are already
devoting columns to a demonstra-
ton of his unavailability.
What is the meaning Of Mr.
Bryan's return to the limelight? 1t
signifies primarily that the Demo-
cratic politicians sense the extreme
dissatisfaction Of the rank and file
with Mr.. Wilson'S leadership. A
Wilson Endorsement promises to be
liability. The President has alien
ated the Democratic masses. The
politicians still fear him, but dimly
realize that his reign is rapidly
drawing to an end.
Mr.. Bryan has many disabilities.
Yet these are being obscured to the
Democratic mind by the fact that
he parted with the Wilson Admin
istration away back in 1916 and
can't be saddled with responsibility
for it's failures since then. If he
should run again he would doubt
less boast Of his refusal to sign the
Lusitania note and cut away as
completely from Wisconsin as he
did from Clevelandism in 1896.
And he came nearer election in
1896 than in either 1900 or 1908,
although in the two latter cam
paigns he had a nominally united
party behind him.
In its present bewildered state it
would not be unnatural for the
Democratic party to re-draft the old
leader. He has an open mind and
wide sympathies. AS to policies he
is an eclectic. His asset is that he
happens to be about the only avail
able Democrat who, contemplating
the wreckage Of the last five years,
can establish an alibi.

We are glad that the city fathers
of the great metropolis have set the

ing an ordinance which will annul thu
objectionable blunder of the national
government, so far as local conditions
are concerned, and give back to ur-
ban and suburban dwellers the great
boon of daylight saving for the coming

note that Philadelphia and other large
cities arc following on In the sama

organizations, Boy Scouts, all kinds of

steps, circulate petitions to their re-

let individuals circulate such petitions

public press lend its mighty aid, and
soon local daylight saving will be an

told me on one occasion the enemy laid
such a heavy barragc over portion Of
his line that for several days it was
wholly impossible to get up ammuni-
ton, food or fresh men.
When the reserves finally got
through, they found two "Y" ladies
and one "Y" man in dug-out, who
had been serving coffee and hot dough
nuts day and night during the bar
rags. General B remarked that he
couldn't understand how those "Y"
people had brought up -four and lard,
etc, when he couldn't get bullets up.
And apparently that doughnut outfit
didn't ask the commanding officer to

How to Curb Strikes

The industrial conference would
divide the country into twelve in
dustrial regions, each having tri-
bunal of employers and employees
TO adjust industrial disputes. Crown
ing the edifice of Cancellation would
be a national appeal board, ap-
pointed by the President, consisting
of nine members and composed
equally of representatives. of en-
ployers, employees and the public.
New machinery is obviously
needed. Such system as The
industrial conference sketches would
doubtless avert many strikes. But
for real cure for industrial
disharmony it is necessary to do
more than to establish new ma
chinery The conference itself
recognizes this by saying it is not
disposed "to exaggerate the impor-
tancc Of the mechanical as con-
trasted with the human clement of
the situation"
What is most needed is to get at
the minds and consciences of indi-
vidual men by a propaganda for
.';ght as unhagging as that which
las been carried on for wrong.
There should be campaign for
comprehensive code defining privi-
leges and duties. Now there is great
confusion. Is labor to be treated
as a commodity and therefore akin
TO property, or in the part of the law
which deals with man as being?
Is a union a legitimate associa-
ton or presumptively an illegal
conspiracy? If legal, what are the
boundaries Of its permissible acts?
May it strike under all circum-
stances or is the strike right to be
denied under some circumstances?
Is picketing to be allowed and when
does free assemblagc infringe on or
der? What is the proper use Of in
functions? The law at present is
highly equivocal. Judges differ and,
of course, so do administrative Off
GERS.
Even more important than the
dissipation Of the fogs Of the law
is fuller understanding of funda-
mental laws of economics. The
inequities of distribution have been
emphasized practically to the ex-
clusion Of the more vital production
problem. Men can be made to see
that while employers and employed
are in economic antagonism as to
some things they are equally con-
cerned in a maximum of production.
Little is now done to spread a
general knowledge Of economic
truths. Both employers and en-
ployed constantly assume that wages
are .prevailingly paid out of profits
or capital. Hence the rules and
regulations to limit product per
man, rules which account in a IL .ge
measure for opposition to unionism.
Labor saving machinery is the best
friend Of the workman. The in
ventors have done more for him
than all his leaders. And as the
machine is recognized as his best
friend, so his worst enemy, in the
long run, is the job mutiplier who
is labor waster.
Life must be made to bring larger
satisfaction to the individual, and
touching the materialities such en-
rancement is impossible except each
one of us produces more. Too few
missionaries in behalf of this doc,
trine are at work. There are mill.
ions for science and intellectual cul,
ture, but little to teach man to un-
derstand his economic environment,
in modern society.
