PANIC IN WASHINGTON

There are indications of a panic in the senate at Washing
Son. Senator Poindexter, Republican, of Washington, unex-
bectedly opened the counter-attack of the opponents of the
or more issuing all kinds of challenges to President Wilson,
who, apparently, is receiving such an ovation throughout the
West. Senator P~oindexter starts on a speaking tour the latter
part of the week in an effort to offset the advantage gained by
the President.
At the same time Senators Johnson, Borah and McCor-
mick have started in hot haste for Chicago where they will adj
dress three meetings in different parts of the city, and while
Senators Borah and Mccormick plan to remain away from the
capital only about a week, Senator Johnson intends to keep
right on trailing the President, making speeches in practically
every city where the President has spoken.
In the meantime Senator Harding has taken up the cudgel
on the floor of the senate starting where Senator Poindexter
the peace treaty is brought out by the Foreign Relations Com
mittee.
There seems to be a difference of opinion in some quar-
tiers as to whether or not President Wilson's Swing around the
circle is a success; it largely depends upon what metropoli-
tan newspaper one reads. But the one sure sign of whether
the trip is q success or not is to be found in the way the oppo-
sition in the senate acts. Rest assured these senators keep in
close touch with the sentiment as the President proceeds;
those senators through whose states the President has already
passed have doubtless heard from their own constituents by
this time, and those senators whose states are still to be in
vaded, such senators as Johnson, of California, have decided
to beat it, for home as fast as they can go in order to be there
to look after their interests.
All doubt as to the success of the Presidents trip is re-
moved when the wild scramble among these Republican sem
ators in Washington is noted.

Ripping Rhimes
ON a
BY WALT MASON


There's not much sense in being
fat, in wearing too much lard; the
weary years have taught me that,
for I'm an obese bard. Diseases punk
/ entertain, dire ailments two@or
three; and, though I'm twisted up
with pain, I get no sympathy. Men
laugh to hear q fat man groan; and
though he's feeling tough, and has an
ache in every bone, they think it all
a bluff. If I were thin and drawn
and pale they would not treat me
thus; If I put up al anguished wall,
they'd make all kinds of fuss; with
soothing words they'd quell my fears,
and bid my pains depart, and shed
the sympathetic tears that each q
sick mans heart. But / am fat and
when I yell they all begin to laugh;
and they'll be laughing till my knell
~precedes my epitaph. A lean man
falls, and people sigh, and wonder If
he's hurt; they bring his hat, ar
range his tie, and brush from him
the dirt. There's tender feeling IN
the glance that everyone bestows;
and for a padded ambulance some
sympathizer goes. A fat man falls
all in a heap, and telescopes his
spine. and people stand around and
weep-but laughter brings the brine.
The fat man goes his greasy way,
with large and bullying vest, and to
the whole world, every day, his every
moves a Jest.

THE BOARD OF A

Editor EVENING NEWS:
The Board Of Trade of this city has
been a great success. This has not
been true of other organizations OF
a similar character which were at
tempted before the present body came
into e~xistance. That may be parity
due to the fact that now we have a
much larger city with greater inter
ests to contribute to its need and sup
port. 1t seems to me, however, 1t is
more largely due to the vision of ser
vice which the organization now mas.
We are a long way past the point
where it is necessary to contend LOT
the advantage of a strong organization
of this sort. 1t has proven its value
not only here but in a multitude OF
cities throughout the land, The events
of recent years have taught US the
value of organization work. This up
plies especially to civic and soclal
movements in which the whole COM
munity is or should be interested.
Should the organization ever fail or
its mission it would not be the fault
of its character, out because the peo-
pie of the city do not give 1t the IN
telligent and enthusiastic support
which 1t deserves. The Board or
Trade. like every other institution of
it's kind, will not run itself. nor can
it properly be run by only a FEW. II
will only be the success that It g
to be if every citizen will give 1t, nrst,
his moral support. and then his active
and financial support SO far as hrs
ability or position in the community
demands. To do this will continue the
credit which past events have rehect-,
ed on our city.
Yours truly,
ADRIAN LYON. n

Daily Sermonetfe

HE that ~withholdeth corn, the
people shall curse him; but blessing
shall be upon the head OF him that
selleth it."
Profiteering is no new thing.
Three thousand years ago Solomon
expressed the contempt of the peo-
pie for him who made himself rfch
ia the expense of the poor.
The Bible is the best Textbook for
the friend of the oppressed. There is
absolutely no comfort in it for the
oppressors of the lowly.
That's why intelligent labor lead
ers and statesmen quote IL SO ire
auently when they are fighting in q
good cause, and they need not twist
its words out of their true meaning
in order to apply them to their par
ticular cases.
one of the earlier prophets named
Amos, who was a shepherd and a
"gatherer of sycamore frult-a
workingman-spoke fearlessly to the
mighty ones in Israel who SOD
the needy for a pair of shoes, ana
who built for themselves palaces OF
ivory while the poor lived IN noveis'
The law, as it was handed down
by Moses, while just and fair to all,
is nevertheless in favor OF the poor.
The plan Of having the land taken
for debt revert to the original owner
after a period of years-whether he
had paid his debt or not-is an Illus
tration.
The cities of refuge for those who
had Internationally committed wrong
is another instance.
The teaching of all the great pro-
phets favors the oppressed-they
were all champions of the poor.
If you were to analyze the ter
| commandments you woul n tna'
| for the most part they favor tins
poor as against the mighty who mac
the power to kill and to steaf ana &c
bear false witness-thinking of the
ten commandments merely from the
economic standpoint. -
And the New Testament likeWlst
bears witness to the Bibles partiailto
to the workers.
Jesus was poor-there coule
scarcely have been a lowier plrtn
than his-the manger of a stable;
His life as a carpenter gave hlI
the experience of the common man
His disciples were workingmen
His churches were organized py ant
for workingmen. His teachings wer'
Invariably in behalf Of those wht
were being beaten down by the pow
erful.
Here's the way he spoke to them
"Woe unto you, scribes and Pharl
sees, hypocrites! for We make cieal
the outside of the cup and platter
but within they are full of extortiol
and excess.
Thou blind Pharisee, a. mrs
that which is within the cup ant
platter, hat the outside OF them ma
be clean also.
.Voe unto you, scribes n Phar
~,sees. hypocritesl for We are like unit
whited sepulchres, which indeed ap
pear beautiful outward. but are with
in full of dead mems bones n Q
all uncleanness.
srEven SO We also outwardly appea
righteous unto men, but within y
are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.
"Wherefore ye be witnesses unit
yourselves, that We are the childre
of them which killed the prophets.

pers, how "a ye escape the oamna

Asss Luke McIuke Says.
If q man could remember names
the way a woman can remember hats
he would make a wonderful hotel
clerk.
One nice thing about a girl who is
wearing a IS pair Of silk stockings is
that she wants to show about $4.98
worth of them.
In spite of the fact that she once
thought hal he was a Handsome
Hero a man will insist that his wife
has no imagination.
If things keep on the way they are,
a Bride will receive a pair of shoes
paltry pearl necklace or a diamond
La Valliere.
OF course the women will snort.
But not one woman in 200 can bake
good coffee. The usual beverage
served at the breakfast table under
the name of coffee tastes like a mix
ture of ~quinine and buckthorn bark.
What has become of the little ITO
pfa we were to have under Prohibi-
ton? And what has become of all
the money we were to save under
Prohibition? Prohibition has de-
prived the Government of a lot OF
revenue nd made booze drinkers out
of temperate men. 1t has also started
an epidemic of kidney diseases, but
aside from this Prohibition has &C.
complished nothing.
Even If you equipped your con
science with a megaphone you could

R6hc Opinion
POIICEMEN,s a

EDITOR EVENING NEWS:
May 1 have space for these few
lines in your valuable paper to ex-
press my opinion as a taxpayer and
citizen of this city on the question,
Are the patroImen entitled to a raise
In pay?
The patrolman, as 1 understand,
for his first year receives S1,100;
second ear, $1,000; third, $1,000,
and fourth, $500. If they get their
asked for raise they will receive
$1,000 for first year, $1,000 for sec
ond and $500 for third. 1 think it
Is no more thai fair that they should
get what they are after. In a late
issue of your paper 1 noticed the
following scale of prices, showing the
increase of the cops clothes since
1915: Winter overcoat in 1915 cost
$85, this year $75; dress coat In 1915
cost $25; this year $55; summer suit
in 1915 cost STATS, this year $40;
trousers in 1915 cost Sc, this year
SIS; shoes in 1915 cost So, this year
$40; cap in 1915 COS $1.75, this year
$3.50. The cops must at all times
look neat and it takes a big part Of
their small pay to keep up to stan
dard, as prices of clothes are double
or more today.
Then compare the rent of 1915
with today. In 1915 fair living rooms
could be had for SIS or $40, today
the same rooms not less than $50.
Every o Is q member of two or
more lodges, and also carries insur-
ance, which takes a good many dol
lars per year; he also wishes his chill
dren to have a fair education. He
cannot enjoy pleasures that an ordi-
nary laborer can. The pay he re-
ceives now will hardly pay for his
food, clothes and upkeep of the
house.
He is always on duty. After his
eight-hour shift he may be called on
extra duty, such as strike duty or
other emergency calls.
Some people are unde he i'm
preston that the cops are furnished
with their uniforms, and some peo-
pie think his job is a cinch. They
don't realize his life is always In
danger.
This city having one of the best
police forces in the state are the low
est paid. Our n~eighboring towns,
Woodbridge and Roosevelt, are re-
ceiving $3.50 per year and have
their uniforms furnished.
The city of Long Branch, with a
population of $4,000 or 10000, pays
their cops $1,700 a year, SO why can't
the city of Perth Amboy, with a pop
ulation of $4,000 people, afford TO
pay their cops $500?
All they Isl is a fair increase
which should have been granted De-
fore this time.
