IOWA PRESS COMMENT.

Waterloo Times-Tribune: The
negro hater' Is a well known Quan!-
ty He is usually a braggart and q
coward. A gun In his hand. he
shoots because he Is braggart and
a coward The negro hater" is not
confined to the south; he is proba-
bly, more numerous in the north than
in the south. The same fellow win
hate every other race. 1t is not the
negro alone that he abhors.
/ Burlington HawkEye: Blessed Is
the country that is able to fill it's
grain bins and elevators and over
tax its transportation facilities.
There are saddened peoples whose
grain receptacles are empty and
whose grain cars are idle because
| of the devastation Of war
! Manson Journal: Isn't it about
time for the world to sober up and get
to work and try to earn living?
Knoxville Express: Attorney Gen.
eral Havner will not probably get
across with his aspirations for the
governship; whether wrongly or
rightly, he has accumulated a good
deal of enmity which will meet him
at every turn.
Manson Democrat: Iowa can al
ways be depended upon every year
for drought, flood, hot winds,
billiards., a mess of politics-and a
good crop.
Council Bluffs Nonparel1: Hardin
county people, having voted down
the proposal to pave their primary
road system, are now trying to save
their faces by graveling their main
roads. There was time when gravel
made a first class road, but that was
before the auto. Now 1t will cost
more in the end to gravel a road and
ikeer it in good shape than it will
ITO pave.
Webster City Freemen-Journal:
Yes. there is more money in the
country than ever before, but there
was never time when so much was
needed. Nobody seems to have more
team he wants.
Cedar Rapids Gazette: General
Hubert A Allen. of Cedar Rapids. has
been several times mentioned as a
man who would make go,d COVER
nor. He is Iowa's highest ranking
civilian soldier, business man with
brs ms, an executive to whose ability
thousands of soldiers can TESTIFY.
Better than these. General Allen Is
rot a politician. Not inrrequently a
man who might make an excellent
governor is found outside the politi-
cal ring. The greatest trouble with
politics is too many politicians.
Cherokee Times: Congressman
Harry Hull of the second district, is
still living in the shadow OF Daven-
port saloons. He was the only Iowa
congressman to vote against the
prohibition enforcement bill.
Dubuque Telegraph-Herald: The
lawyer or newspaper editor or mer-
chant would be criticised il, without
any training in mechanics, he set
about to educate the public in regard
to automobiles. The automobile ex-
pert deserves even moro criticism
when he undertakes. with such obv1-
GUS iack of qualification, to instruct
nation and shape. its opinion on
public affairs Of the highest Import
ance, at a critical time.

MUSICAL PRESCRIPTION.

Music as means to healing ills of body and
mind is under serious investigation; and there
lis every reason to believe that music has pow
lers for good that have hitherto been little ap-
preciated Indeed 80 much evidence is at hand
from the war hospitals that it demands credence
and justifes the movement for development Of
musical therapy. But the specific musical pre-
scriptions already made invite comment. Miss
lisa Maude Ilsen, director Of hospital music in
the war department. presents a list and query
!arises as to why's and wherefores. The prescrip-
tons for insomnia, hyster1a, neurasthenia,
range through the smoothly melodc compost
lions of many schools they are easily justified
by people who know the music listed. But a
plethora of Bach for rheumatism is not so cas-
lily comprehended by the lay mind; it would
seem from quotation printed by Mrs. Ilsen that
ia counter ir1itant is what is desired for rheuma
tism and that it is found in Bach. The particu-
larry interesting field for inquiry, however, is
found in the list of music prescribed for Gin
durable Diseases. All this music is by Ameri-
can composers. Why is this? Is there some
inspiration to blind courage, to fortitude
against despair in our composers inventions2
Is there in our rhythmic methods Of composition
a means of diverting attention that conquers
paint Or is it that if the disease is incurable,
a composition is chosen on the homeopathic
principle that 'like cures like7" American
composers have bad time Of it with the critics;
are they to have contest in the field of
medical musical prescription
Statistics compiled by the Boston News Bll-
reau show that the number Of stockholders in
railroads has increased much more rapidly than
the amount Of capital stock That means that
there more people interested in what con-
gress will decide to do with the railroads on
their return to private operation
While the inmates of our prisons may not be

threatened with the combined horrors of pestilence and famine"
 MT. Lane asks adequate provision to collect statistical information about the industry, paving the way to better utilization of fuel in future.
 Consideration of water power and petroleum deposits takes MT. Lane to the wider spaces of the West. He states that 70 per cent of the avail able horsepower in the nation lies west of the Mississippi, and places the total oil production in 1918 at 356,- land leasing legislation will make available further rich supplies, he says, and eventually the deposits of oil shale "can be made to yield vastly more oil than has been found in pools or sands"
 "Yet with all the optimism that can be justified,' the report says, q would urge policy of saving as to petro- leum that should be rigid in the ex- treme. If we are long to enjoy the benefits of a petroleum age, we must save this oil"
 Ships using fuel oil should be equipped with internal combustion motors, MT. Lane believes, and not be allowed to burn oil to make steam. A foreign oil supply should also be sought and diplomatic and industrial means used to develop it.
 A new basis for the operation of the reclamation service, which has chiefly been occupied in Western states, with a total of 1,602,O00 acres made irri- gable, is suggested.
 'The day has come when it (recla- mation) must be nationaliZed and ex- tended to all parts of the republic" MT. Lane says. "To the deserts of the West we have brought the cre- ative touch of water, and we must find a way to go on with this work. But it is of equal importance that we should liberate rich areas now held in bondage by the swamp, convert millions of acres of idle cut-over lands
