WILL EXAMINE NEWS PRINT
INDUSTRY
Newspaper publishers and all those
whose business requires the use of news
print paper, as well as the public in gen.
eral, will be vitality interested in the COM
ing investigation of the news print indus,
try by the Senate subcommittee. This
committee which was formed under res
olution introduced by Senator Reed Of
Missouri, is composed Of Senator Robert
M. LaFOllette of Wisconsin, chairman;
Senator Charles l.. McNary of Oregon;
AISLE j. Gronna of North Dakota: James
A. Reed of Missouri and David j. Walsh
of Massachusetts.
The absolute fairness in the selection
of the membership of this committee is
shown by the biographs of the men APP
pointed. No newspaper men are on the
committee. Senator La Toilette is
lawyer and in addition to having served
three terms as governor of Wisconsin. He
was first elected to the Senate in 1905.
Senator McNary is also lawyer having
served as associate justice of the Oregon
Supreme court for two years. TIe was
chairman of the Republican state central
committee for two years prior to his APP
pointment to fill the unexpired term of
the late Harry Lane. Senator Gronna is
farmer and banker and served as men,
Der of the House through the Fifty ninth,
SiXtieth and Sixty first congresses before
being elected to the Senate in 191l
Neither Senator Walsh nor Senate Reed
have ever been engaged in the newspaper
business.
Senator La Toilette has stated that he
will carefully review previous investiga-
tions of the news print industry about
which there hape been many charges Of
unfairness. Data obtained by the Fedei'-
al Trade Commission and the Department
of Agriculture will be noted as well as
the information available from the pup
and paper section of the War Industries
Board.

PEOPLES PARKS.

The governor of Michigan has asked the leg
jislature to take immediate steps to acquire the
necessary lands for system Of state parks.
Michigan is rich in beautiful park sites along
the Great Lakes and around its many pretty in-
land lakes and waterways. Through a failure
ito realize the Importance of these beauty spots
to the public now and in the future, private in
terests have been allowed to gobble up much Of
that land, and to restrict public enjoyment OF it.
The governors suggestion is a wise one and
will probably be followed by action of the leg
lislature. 1t is indicative, moreover, of q gen
ieral public awakening that is showing itself in
similar efforts all over the country.
Uncle Sam is taking more care than ever be-
fore to preserve and protest as great national
parks some of the most striking and wonderful
scenic regions of our continent. STATES and
smaller communities would do we'll to follow the
Example on a smaller scale. Many of them are
already doing SO.
Nearly every community has some attractive
features Of natural scenery which should be kept
open for the use and enjoyment of the people
W 40 live near it. If there is no natural beauty,
there is all the more reason for creating some by
setting aside park space, planting grass and
shrubs and trees that will grow in that soil. and
saving for the public a breathing place where
they can go for recreation and release from
crowded cars and shops and offices.
The community center, the school and
church, the art museum and public library for
indoor education, refreshment and enjoyment Of
the people should go hand in hand with the parks
and good roads that are essential to community
health. and normal happy Development

two years in extending an invitation
to the world to come and enjoy "the
climate, scenic wonders, highways
and resources of this state" under
the provisions of the bill placed be-
,ore the Legislature. by Senator
Breed. This measure is one of sew
eral- designed to increase the influx
Of tourists and settlers to Califor-

Breeds bill would create a depart

prorriation of 100000 this year and

GERMANY NOT. THE JUDGE
(Springfeld Union)

| German spokesmen continue to assume-as if
they believed it-that peace settlement under
the Presidents fourteen terms will save them
from all the penalties of both responsibility for
and defeat in the war. They can do this with
some show of sincerity because of the Pres-
dents terms as we have frequently pointed out,
IN themselves establish no definite policy of
settlement, and because some of his differences
before we entered the war carried the idea that
we would not have durable peace unless it be a
peace without victory. 1t will be recalled that in
their request for an armstce they expressed a
Willingness to make peace on the President S
fourteen terms and the various principles he had
laid down in his speeches.
T We have an indication of the German temper
in the comments on the decision of the Allies not
to return her colonies to Germany, but to estab-
lish a supervision of the league over their ad-
minstration by designated Allied states. Vor-
vaertS, which is the fficial organ of the Ger
nan government, says THE decision of the west
ern powers to take the German colonies for them
selves is born of spirit diametrically opposed
to that proclaimed by President Wilson, 1t
concludes that the President is permitted to give
the oratorical and rhetorical effects. but that
England and France manage the real business
AS matter of fact there is nothing whatever
in the Presidents term regarding the disposition
of the German colonies that gives the Germans
or anyone else reason to say that any settlement
is diametrically opposed to it. That term is as
follows:
"A free open minded and absolutely i'm
partial adjustment of all colonial claims
based upon a strict observance of the prin-
cpe that, in determining all such questions
OF sovereignty, the interests of the popula-
tions concerned must have equal weight
with the quitabe claims of the government
whose title is to be determined"
Under that statement the Germans might
claim that all their colonies should be given back
or England might claim that all of them should
! be given to her. The interests of the populations
concerned is the only qualification as to any con-
ceivable disposition that might be made of the
colonies 1t all depends on who is to Judge Of
those interests, and in the circumstances Ger
many can hardly assume to be the Judge Near
| ly all the Presidents terms depend on the con
struction that is given them, and the Allies and
the United States are giving it. In the course of
time Germany will be receiving it.

From some newspapers one gets the idea

that nobody is being fooled except the pessimist
who refuses to see the honesty, idealism and eff

Judging from the countless preparations
and treatments which are continually be-

thin people fieshy. developing arms. neck
and bust. and replacing ugly hollows and
angles by the soft curved lines Of health
and beauty. there are evidently thousands
OF men and women who keenly feel their

Thinness and weakness are usually due
to starved nerves. Our bodies need more

MORE TAGS ISSUED FOR
SMALL THAN FOR BIG CARS

Over 100000 has already been col
iected by the state for use in making
better roads by the tax on automo-
biles. Though the work this year did
not start until April because of the
new motor vehicle license law passed
by the legislature, $4,000 tags have
been sent out.
1t is interesting to note that two
thirds of the cars which have applied
for licenses are Fords. The license
clerk says that most of the applicants
thus far have been farmers, and that
there seems to be, lack of enthusiasm
on the part of big car owners to secure
licenses, because of the heavier taxes
on them.
1t is estimated that $75O,OO0 will be
taken in from the sale of automobile
tags. After deducting the cost of the
department, which is not very much in
comparison to the money it brings in,
half OF the remaining money is sent
hack to the counties from which it
came, to be used for the building of
roads; and the other half is used by
the state highway commission to build
and maintain roads. For example, IL
a county sent In $50. 900 for auto tags,
1t would receive back from the state
to use for, goods roads, little more
than $4,000.
The highway commission announces
that the report that has been spread
that motorcycles were tax free, is
false, and that every motorcycle is
taxed s..
