like the present form OF makeup OF
the Capital Journal because one of the

newspaper is dependability and the

Such rapid changes are coming in

over for certain departments Of news

A mixed tumble of news on the

Contest Editor: The newspaper
that gets the most of the important
news on the first sheet without caus-
'ng the reader to hunt for continue
ons in remote corners of the paper,
is the most progressive in my estima-
ton.
The average newspaper devotes
about ten per cent of the space OF its
most important sheet, to the heading,
| and often thirty per cent of the space
70 headings of new items leaving less
fhan two-thirds of the sheet for read
ing matter.
Aside from the convenience of read
ing completed news items on the first
sheet, the departure from any time
worn style of heading and makeup in
a newspaper should be welcomed by
those who prefer variation to monot-
ony. Even the seasons change.
Style Of dress is used to give dis
tinction to the Individual Why deny
an editor the privilege to use similar
methods to express individuality
through his publication? To discour-
age originality in one feature of a
newspaper may prevent it's appear
ance in the editorial and other de-
partments of the paper with the re-
suit that we might be treated to
'hackneyed phrases and "glitering
generalities' instead of distinctive in
dividual expression.

THE LIQUOR TRAFFIC.

Desperate efforts are being made
to defeat ratification of the national
prohibition amendment. But the days
of booze in the United States are
numbered.
After all is said, there is not sin
gle valid argument for the continued
existence of the liquor traffic. 1t has
done incalculable harm. 1t never has
done one ota of good in the world
Fifty-five years ago there were peo-
pie in this country who urged that
abolition of slavery was a question for
the states to deal with. and the thir-
teenth amendment to the federal con-
stitution, urged repeatedly by Presi-
dent Lincoln, was rejected by the low
er house of congress in June, 1864.
While slavery and the liquor traffic
are not on the same moral plane. no
better argument can be made in favor
of iegalizing the liquor traffic than
was made fifty-fiye years ago against
constitutional prohibition of slavery

apology, not an inkling that contrition
Is felt by any person of all the Hun
race.
Just how dense the German mind
is on the subject may be judged from
the fact that the Berlin government
recently attempted to send Baron Won
der Lancken, the man most respon-
slide for the murder of Miss CaveIl. as
commissioner to negotiate with Her
bert Hoover for foodstuffs for Ger
many.
Under tho German code there is no
such thing as eternal right and wrong.
Truth is n temporary matter that may
be shifted over night. 1t is with these
people that we have to deal, that we
have to make peace, that we must
compel to give guarantees, because we
cannot trust their word. 1t is because
of these facts that Premier Clemen-
eeau objects to a league of nations
which would have to include the Teu-
tonic peoples of German and Austrian
training and morals.
The value of The moral code Is that
1t may be written on tables of stone
so permanently that it will never have
to be rewritten in line or letter. 1t is
as binding upon us today as it was
upon Moses three thousand years ago.
Albuquerque morning journal. [volume] (Albuquerque, N.M.) 1903-1926, 1919-01-14
OUR OWN INTEREST FIRST.

If the United States enters league
of nations whose object is the preser-
walton of peace throughout the world
and the maintenance of the guaian-
tees of civilization, it will be primar-
lily for her own self-interest. Good to
the rest of the world. however desira-
BILE, would be of secondary considera-
ton.
We are not instigated to the forma-
ton of such league in order to give
France security, or the British en-
pire support, but because world in
sured against self destruction is nee
essary to our welfare. and because
shch a league viii guard the United
States and relieve us from anxiety
Therefore, those who regard such
league as q project for the benefit of
other nations exclusively indulge in a
fallacy. The league may not be de
sirable or practicable, but the induce
ment thereto is not Europe's interest,
except as Europes interest concerns
our own.
The consideration which presents
itself to us, is the extent to which the
league will insure peace to the United
States and relieve us from the necessi-
ty of supporting vast ornaments and
of maintaining constant vigilance.
The truth seems to be that in our
age no nation, however powerful, is
safe by itself Nations today can be
secure only by virtue of partnership
in some sort of alliance or league.
The view that we would be wholly
the benefactor and not at all the ben
eficiary in any league of nations
is erroneous. The United States, as
well as her allies. is in need of guar
antecs. And if such guarantees are
not to be expressed through the for
NAL agency of league. they will hare
to be applied in our unwritten rela-
lions with the French republic, the
British empire and the kingdom of
Italy.

GERMANY NOT REPENTANT,

From no statement in Germany, OBJ
tainable by any correspondent who has
visited that country, does it appear to
have yet entered the German mind
that the German raid on mankind fail
ed because 1t was wrong. The best
that has been said is that the plumber
raid was wrong because it failed
1t is as if burglar were to admit
that the burglary was wrong because
he failed to get the goods he was af-
ter. Germany took this ground and
nothing said by her statesmen, her
newspapers, her preachers or her pro-
fessors, not to mention her generals,
has renowned one whit of the philoso-
ply that might makes right.
With them right and wrong are
merely matters of success and fail
ure. If you start out to cut a neigh
boris throat while he sleeps, it is all
right, according to Berlin; but if you
fail, you have done wrong, because you
failed.
According to Ferdinand all Ger
many, for that matter-what is wrong
this morning may become right before
noon. The rape of Belgium was wrong
in 1914. because it failed 1t might
he right in 1924. For the horrors per-
petratcd at Louvan and Dinant, for
the sinking of the Lusitania, for the
murders of Miss CaveN and Captain
.Fryatt, there has been no word of
