One of the most creditable ambi
tons of an American citizen is t.
own his home. The man who ha
paid-for home, rainy-day funt
and good health is rich to the poin
of practical independence. Every
thing beyond that is beyond the vitalll
essential; and riches much beyont
that may be detrimental to a full life
These three good things insure free
dom from anxiety about the body, and
therefore give leisure to cultivate tho
soul. In material things to be de-
sired, next to good health, comes the
paid-for home. And next to the paid
for home comes the home that is be-
ing paid for.
There are not enough homes owned
by American citizens; and the ratio of
renters compared with home owners
is growing in favor of the renters.
This condition is a menace to Ameri-
ca. 1t is a problem here in Albu-
querque that must be solved soon.
We haven't enough houses even for
the renters.
Certain social philosophers say the
home must shape itself to fit indus
try; that workngmen cannot own
homes profitably. because they should
be left foot-free to follow high wages;
that homes fetter the workman to the
industries near where his home is.
But no industry on earth is as es-
sential to national strength and to
human happiness as the home. The
family is the foundation of the nation
in its fullest spiritual and material
sense; and the family cannot properly
develop, it never has developed prop
erly, in such tencments as happen to
best that is in family life cannot be
brought out in a rented home, even
though renting may be cheaper finan-
cially than owning the property.
The family grows up best in a home
of its own. In general, the family de-
velops best when it stays placed.
In order to life to some extent the |
burden of taxation from the homes of |
New Mexico and to encourage the |
building of more homes. or their pur-
chase, the Journal has advocated an
income tax which would measurably |
relieve the heavy tax burden now
placed on real property.
Also the Journal has asked that all |
unnecessary offices in contemplation
be eliminated from the bills creating
them.
1t is to be hoped that with the
spring there will come building
boom to this city, to other towns and /
cities in New Mexico. Let us inaugu-
rate campaign under the slogan,
own Your own Home" Even the
tautology is good because of its added
emphasis. Such a campaign widely
conducted would partake of the ma
ture of holy crusade. for it would
promote the moral as much as the
physical welfare of society.

| still be wearing the servile livery OF
the Austro-IIungarian empire"
Beyond doubt the Jugo- Slavs need
the port of Fiume, but the people of
that port want to be Joined to Italy.
And Italy has justice in her claims,
Notwithstanding the action of the ad-
ministration at Washington. She has
earned consideration of her necessi-
ties both by her enormous sacrifices
and by her final tremendous achieve
ments. Her own Adriatic coast is
virtually without harbors between
Venice and BrinGisi, and is thus ex-
posed TO incursions by those who hold
the harbors of the opposite coast. Her
security demands complete command
of the Adriatic.
How to reconcile this necessity and
the desires of the Jugo- Slays for Adj
riatic exists is the difficulty. Italian,
as is Trieste, the narrow strip of Dali
malta with the outlying islands ex-
tending from Fiume to the Monte
negro forcshore bars the Hinterland
$ completely from access to the sea
as does our own Alaskan panhandle
the Canadian northwest.
Yet these deep Dalmatian indenta-
lions in other hands than her own
menace Italy as much as Antwerp
and Calais, in German hands, would
menace Great Britain. or as the
Aaland Islands in Russian hands
would menace Sweden.
Italy hasn't faith enough in the
league of nations to believe that safety
from that agency would compensate
her for the dangers from the Adriatic
coast in other hands than her own.
II France is right in demanding "ster-
ilization" of the Rhine danger, Italy
is right in demanding that she shall
be made safe from Slavic menace.
just as she fought a great war and
won immortal renown to make her
borders safe from Austria. who held |
the Italian slopes of the Alps.

THE BoLsHEvK CONSTITUTION

| " VI ,lhHu 'EeSOH1an
A bolshevist orator from the edi-
torial sanctum of the Portland Jour
nal, in addressing a Portland audi
! ence, compared the soviet constitu-
ton of Russia with the constitution
of the United States with the obvious
intent of showing bolshevism to be
superior.
The soviet government is frankly
government by one class which it
calls the toiling Masses" for it de-
mes all rights to vote or hold prop
erty to any other class. 1t was es-
tabhshed by force, it dispersed by
force the only approach to a repre-
sentative body which has met in Rus
STA since the revolution, and it crush
ed by massacre any party which VEN
tufed TO oppose it, 1t frankly pro-
claims the purpose of ''mercilessly

Soviet republic does not limit its aims
to Russia, for it aims at "the victory
of socialism in all countries" and the
men who spout bolshevism in Port
land are the allies of those who have

panion furies. famine and plague,
through Russia.
A fundamental principle of the So
Wet is contiscation of all property and
doing away with parasitical ele-
ments in society" What is meant by
"parasitical ielementsV may be in
ferred from the fact that the fran
chise provisions exclude persons
using hired labor for profit, persons
living on income from capital, inter
est on capital, industrial enterprises
and property, private traders. trading

appropriate education could have
reached high positions in the tech
meal world. In every calling are men
not adapted to it, and who could do
better elsewhere.
Yet too many people who get this
idea in their heads are always drift
ing around in search of something
better. They never attain success be-
cause they never stick to anything.
1t is very difficult thing for a man
to determine what his best aptitudes
are. Many people fritter away their
whole lives in their bludering expert
ments.
When one finally succeeds IN maxi
ing a correct estimate of his own
aptitudes, he has taken the first stem
to success. An interesting illustra-
ton was given in one of the recent
bulletins of the United States employ
ment service. That service recently

other indication. If one likes to tall,

that is a still further proof that one

who ardently desire it. and who spend
much thought trying to find the path
up which they can best climb.

ITALY Is RIGHT.

The administration at Washington
has notified Italy that food supplies
from this country will cease for the
Italians unless that kingdom changes
her attitude toward the Jugo- Slavs.
The feeling between the unorgan-
lied Jugo-Slavs, seeking their indie
pendence from Austria. and Italy has
to do with the Adriatic coast-espe-
cially with the port of Fiume. That
the feeling is bitter may be gathered
from the following reply in LItalia,
an ltalian-language newspaper pub
llshed in San Francisco, to a commu-
nication from Jugo- Slav resident of
that city:

DREDGER STRIKES
UNDERGROUND FLOW
NEAR CITY LIMITS

Work on the digging of ditch and
the laying of a 24-inch main for the
city drainage system was halted yes
terday when the huge dredger of
Contractor Fisher struck what APP
peared to be an underground river, at
Ninth avenue and Hadley street. A
double suction pump was put into
commission as soon as possible and
worked alb night, with none on the
job who could say how long the pump
would be necessary. The dredger has
suspended operations awaiting results
of the pump.
The job, despite every apparent OPP
position of nature, due to recent rains,
went ahead with remarkable eff
cheney until yesterday. The ground in
the southwestern part of the city, or
that thickly populated section lying
just outside of the actual city line, is
saturated with water from the water
gravels to the surface, due to the close
proximity to the river, and from heavy
rains. The trench digging, however,
had no setbacks whatever as the work
men made their way with the ponder
Gus machinery from the river to
Buckeye road and from that point up
the Buckeye road to Ninth avenue and
thence two blocks north to Hadley
street. But here the big machine
struck flow of water resembling a
river at a depth of. about u feet.
While the striking of such a flow of
water is unexpected, the Fisher men
on the job last night said there was
nothing in the situation to cause them
any alarm, although 1T looked fierce. ;

SUES FOR $4,000
ALLEGED DAMAGES

Suit in equity for s175,000 was filed
by s. S. Badger against the United
Arizona Copper Mining and Smelter
company yesterday in the superior
court. Badger is a mining engineer
and former business man of Douglas,
who lives at the present time in New
York City.
Four residents of Marieopa county
and six other men are named as de-
PENDANTS by Badger. The ten are:
Charles H. Dunlap, president; R. c.
Baker, vice president and treasurer;
Charles w. Stott, director; C. F. Aims
worth, director; R. G. Brady, director;
z. Frank Jones. director; Frank O.
Longcor. director; George NJ. Muck
ingham, c. B. Mason and Fred C. Will
liams.
Badger alleges in his suit that after
he had gone to New York for the
company in 1917 to direct its financ-
ing, he was instrumental in turning
over large sums of money to the com
pany which had been subscribed for
stock. Longcor he says, sold 10000
shares of the stock, at a much lower
rate than Badger asked for his stock
in New York and later, according tc
his statement, the company entered
into a contract with Longcor whereby
the latter was to sell 100000 shares
of capital stock at only 20 cents q
share
This contract, Badger says, made il
impossible for him to continue the sale
of stock at so cents to $3.50 a share
the price he says it originally COM
manded and he asks s175,000 as re-
Enumeration for the losses he says he
has sustained.

NATIONAL LEAGUE
FAVORS 154-CA|ME
SCHEDULE IN 1920

NEW YORK, Dec. e.-The annual
meeting of the board of directors of the
National league and the regular meet
ing of the club owners took place to-
day. President Heydler said much ur-
gent business still remained unfinished
and that the meeting might last
through the greater part of the week.
The new board of directors was elect
ed, consisting of Messrs. Stoneham,
New York; Grant, Boston; Dreyfus,
Pittsburg, and Veeck, Chicago. 1t was
decided that in the future two western
and two eastern clubs will be repre-
scented on the board and that they
would alternate each succeeding year.
A rumor that Brooklyn club had been
sold to a syndicate of Brooglyn men
was denied by President Ebbetts.
The constitution was amended so
that any club owner. manager, player
or agent convicted of tampering with
players belonging to other league clubs
would be fined $1,000. Expulsion may
be the penalty for second offense.
The league voted in favor of 1874
game schedule for the 1920 season,
which will open on Wednesday, April
IA, subject to the approval of the
American league, which will meet here
tomorrow. The training season was
extended from four to six weeks prior
to the opening of the playing season.
Mr.. Heydler unofficially stated that
the frightening of the world series to
nine games and the new rules for the
division of the receipts seemed to find
favor among the club owners.
