THE PRESIDENTS SALARY

The Washington Post devotes two
thirds of a column to showing the in
adequacy of the Presidents salary. He
is paid a salary of $4,000 year but
existing income tax cuts big hole
in it, the tax being around $4,000,
leaving but $4,000. He is allowed
$25,O0O travelling expenses and needs
every dollar of that especially during
the present administration.
1t is fact that the salary paid the
United States chief executive does not
compare with the amount paid by
European countries to their chief rul-
ers. 1t is also true that very few
of our presidents have come out OF
the office better off financially than
when they went in. Some have ap-
preached very near bankruptcy before
their death.
The salary paid to our President
is not what it should be. If not in
creased it might be well to keep
former presidents on the government
pay roll during the remainder of their
lives, after their retirement, with a
salary that would enable them to live
in comfort with no thought of having
to fight against the coming of the wolf
to their doors.

THE OPEN COLUMN
A Remarkable Attraction,

Editor the Missourian: A city is
known by the way its inhabitants act.
An airplane passed over Columbia
recently. Nearly everybody stopped
for minute and watched it until out
of sight
In this day and age people use
daily mechanical devices which were
not even dreamed Of a century ago.
Today the sight of remarkable at
traction is required to cause people
to stop for moment. To the world
at large an airplane is no longer a
remarkable attraction. In the rush
of great events most of us have al
ready forgotten the historic transat-
lantic flight of a plane. A letter de-
livered by airplane is no longer a
souvenir.
Only in secluded localities do peo-
pie gaze with wonderment and envy
upon things which are no longer re-
markable to people elsewhere. But
even secluded localities can have the
llceu uC 5lcdt
attractions.
There are many men in Columbia
who would pay good price for q
ride in an airplane. An airplane club
would solve this problem. The club
need not be established only for sport,
but also as business venture.

Forgetting the Salvation Army2
Editor the Missourian: A fig for
patriotism that shouts and parades
while war is on, and then is folded
up and tucked away out of sight in
time Of peace!
We are told that the Salvation Army
Workers went into the valley of the
shadow Of death" with our soldiers;
that these girls in their tin hats lived
and worked in dugouts as near the
front as those in authority would al

doughnuts and smiles to our weary

O. European affair. 1t was the covenant
not the treaty that fastened upon the I'm
tied States vital and fateful obligations.
In his efforts to keep the treaty from
the senate the president acted like an
angry schoolmaster trying to play even
with pupil. He permitted it to be pub
lished in Europe and his own aides in
Paris furnished copies of it to banking
houses in New York. When Senator
Lodge went to New York he was sub
jected to Wall Street ridicule because he
and his fellow senators had not been able
to get possession of the treaty.
The war waged by the President on the
senate has become scandal to the whole
world.-Goodwin' Weekly.
