Crossing the river to make Americans safe on this side of the
Rio Grande served to make Americans very unsafe on the other
side
We are informed that the government has made an average
profit Of ten million dollars the year on parcel post insurance. This
will come in handy to pay a part Of the annual loss ON the franking
graft.
If Russia falls down on the payment of many more credits
granted by American bankers, it may become our patriotic duty to
establish law and order over there.
Root asserts that the collector of internal revenue holds the
brewers in the hollow of his hands. In that case, this is the logical
time to signal for the squeeze play.
Carranza is sore because we crossed without permission. We

BEST PLACE IN THE WORLD

merica- the United States of America-the best place in the
world
There is n o such Land of Opportunity anywhere in the world
as there is under the Stars and Stripes.
If you've been thinking of buying a one-way ticket to some
place in Europe where you hope to find a paradise with gates ajar,
either put the money back in the bank or add enough to it to get
a return trip, for you'll want it.
Europe is full of glory and short of everything else.
Take just this one basic fact:
Europe has got to convert her factories to a peace-time basis
,sdtsen she has got to get complete supplies of raw materials with
which to u those factories.
America has got to convert her factores-and the whole land
reeks with raw materials.
And this:
Europe went through four years of war. Everything she had
was turned to war usage. Every last inch of ground and foot of
factory space over there was under war strain w~w~r-s
There was no such complete transformation here, and there is
not the necessity now for waiting while the whole land is turned
back to normal life.
One of America big manufacturers estimated four months as
the outside time it would take to put his plant back into its normal
production of peacetime goods. That is probably the average.
Europe can't come back in five years!
Production is the rock bottom of everything. America leads
the world by a mile in readiness to produce.
Remember this: nesixth of the area of France is absolutely
out of business. The land itself is so torn up that it cant be used.
This was the richest agricultural and manufacturing section OF
France. The Germans destroyed it completely. Let that fact make
its full impression. Put out of business one+hxth OF America tat
lies from New York to Ptsburg. would IL a uneren' "
America.
The strictly material side of things is all in favor of America.
he machinery of America is intact-in running order.
The machinery of Europe is not in running order. And before
it can be got in running order a lot of it will have to be bought
from America where it will be made by American workmen.
America was the magic land out of which came that endless
)tream of brown-clad soldiers and blue-clad sailors who didn't know
now to do anything except keep going toward Berlin
Again the brown and blue of America must provide for Eu
rone,s salvation-tLe brown and blue overalls and jumpers that
man Americas farms and factories.
For America this spells OPPORTUNlTY-Jus like that IN
capitals.
Given its short space of time for Encouragement and American
industry is bound to hum as it never hummed before. The empty
hands and hungry mouths of the world stand IN walt Tor the Things
that America alone can grow and make and ship
Don't buy a one-way ticket to Europe.

Today's Letter Takes Up

these might naturally resent a secret
treaty made without their knowledge
in violation of the covenant; might
very properly regard IL as unauthor-
lied, and refuse to carry it out. A
change of the party in power might
would be a fraud, o only upon the
other members of the league, but
also upon the representative body
and the people of h country that
made IL A secret treaty would be a
dangerous thing for a government to
undertake., and a dangerous thing for
the other nation to rely upon. There
fore II is not likely to be made.
The criticism that in the United
States a treaty is made when the rati-
fcations are exchanged has no weight
as an objection to this provision. be-
cause the exchange can be madc
when the treaty is delivered to the
s~ecretariat of the league. as a deed
of land is often delivered at the reg
istry of deeds.
Reconsideration of Treaties
Article XIX, which authorizes the
assembly to advise the reconsldera-
ton of treaties that have become
inapplicable and the consideration Of
international conditions endangering
the peace Cf the world, needs no cx-
PLANTATION. IL gives power merely to
discuss and suggest, and Is part or
the assembly's general function of
debating international relations, es-
pecially such es may threaten war.
Article Xxx, providing for the abro-
CATION Of all obligations between
members of the league Inconsistent
with the covenant and forbidding
any such hereafter. is merely an ex-
press declaration of what would be
otherwise implied. Clearly IL a ma
ton enters into this covenant-which
is a treaty-it agrees not to do any
thing incompatible Herewith, and y
fortiori not to agree to do something
Inconsistent Herewith. The further
agreement to seek release from any
prior inconsistent treaty with a nom
member Is what any honorable nation
would do. s

She lets him talk SO much about
himself during the engagement that he
thinks she is different from other wo-
men. But he wakes up later on.
The reason why a Mother doesn't
think her first baby is the prettiest
baby in the world is because the baby's
father has to spend all day on the
Fourth of July ~shovelfng snow of the
sidewalk.
If Mother can't start a fight with
Father any other way she will gouge
the goo out of the bowl of his pet pipe
and clean 1t up for him.
Another thing we have discovered is
that a Summer dress doesn't have to
be white to be transparent. The dark
goods worn in Summer dresses is
about as opaque as a show window.

American is hat no matter what ii is
hat you like best, your State Legis-
lature will see to it hat you can't

A man isn't really a ~dipsomaniat

about liquor as a woman does thinking
