OUR DEBT TO THE DEAD

Subscribing to the governments
fifth Liberty Loan, called in our
thanksgiving the Victory Loan, is the
most patriotic thing any of us can do
at the present moment. While actual
fighting was in progress it was not
hard to arouse ourselves to active and
unqualified support of any war meas
ure which was brought forward. Now
that the stimulus of the knowledge
that American blood was flowing on
the fields of France is gone VS. should
not be any the less hesitsnt in re-
spending to an appeal which is neces-
sary to pay the price of the peace
1t Is not difficult to realize that
hundreds Of millions of dollars were
spent in accommodating the materials
with which this country was to play
Its part in the great spring offensive
of 1919, planned by the Allies to be
the vital blow of the war. Among
othsr things it is to pay for large
qualities of these supplies that the
present loan is being asked The debt
was acquired in worthy cause and
in honor to our dead we can do moth

Not to Leave Task
Uncontrolled.

-Four members of the American peace
mission in France, Secre e,y Of State
Robert Lansing. Col. E. H. House,
General Tasker \. Bliss and Henry
White, have sent this message to the
American people urging support Of the
Victory Loan:
ITO TIE AMERICAN PEOPLE:
We have had the opportunity here
In France to see and realize the mag.
nitude OF the accomplishment of our
country in this war and the l. agnifi.
cent spirit with which this great task
has beer carried through to a trium-
plant issue.
What has betl done and what re-
mains t. be done before normal con-
hitions ara restored demand your con-
tinued and united support with the
same spirit of self sacrifice and of de.
termination as that which was ma.
tested by the nation while the German
armies faced our men at the Marna,
and in the Champagne, at st. Mihiel
and in the Argonne We must not re.
lax our efforts until every soldier of
the republic is landed on the soil OF
America
To Finish this mighty task imposes
upon the government CT the United
States great financial burden. The
victory Liberty Loan must thrive. If
1t should fail it would indicate Rat the
Nation is willing to leave it's task un-
completed.
ITO secure the ideals for which
Americans fought and died this great
demand on national patriotism and
united effort should meet a generous
and universal response. Let us do our
duty to the end.

Instructions Concerning War Saving
And Thrift Stamps.

Purchasers of 1919 War Savings
Stamps should not place them on
1913 folders technically known as
War Savings Certificates is the
warning of Samuel Hubbard, direct
or OF War Savings for the Twelfth
Federal Reserve District If the
1918 certificate has blank spaces
just put the certificate away with
odt filling il with 1919 stamps
The same Thrift Stamps and
Thrift Cards are used this year and
: hen the Thrift Card holding 16
stamps Is filled it will be exchanged
for the 1919 War Savings Stamp on
payment of the additional cents
which represents the difference be-
tween the price of the War Savings
Etamp and 81, the value of the l6
Thrift Stamps.
Where there is any doubt Direct
or Hubbard advises questioning the
local secretary of the War Savings
Society or the postmaster.

BOND ELECTION STOPPED BY
INJUNCTION.

The Board of Commissioners Of
the Orofino Highway District were
enjoined from holding a special cleo
ton, Saturday, April 10, to vote on
bonding the district for $4,000.
The case will come up in the May
term of the District court The in
junction proceedings were not actu-
ated by an unwillingness to vote
in favor of bonds, but lack of con-
fidence in the proper handling of
funds. by the present dominating in
fluence in the affairs of the Orofino
Highway District. The people have
not yet forgotten the rejection of
court house bonds, the Nease Cruise,
the Swinton deal, the Clearwater
bridge scandal and the load of debt,
amounting to$12 900, that was in
herited from the powers that for
merly dominated the county gov
eminent, and which evil influence
row controls the administration of
the Orofino Highway District.
Another objection to voting on
bonds at this time, was the com
plications that might arise in the
affairs of the lately created Grange
mont Highway District. Again the
Lewis and Clark highway survey
has not yet been made and no in
telligent estimate can be made of |
the cost. In fact the bond propo-
sition, at this time, was premature,
and was an apparent attempt to
perpetuate selfish control of the Oro-
fino Highway District and saddle
upon this community an unsatisfact-
DRY dominance that would be diff
cult to dispose of.

PAY YOUR DEBTS

On New Years eve the cost OF the
war to the United States stood at s22
OOo,0O0,0o0. Practically all Of this
money had been raised by taxation
and by the Liberty loans The entire
amount which had come into the
Treasury up to that time for war MIR
poses had either been spent or had
been ear-marked for specific bills.
Since the middle of November when
the a miStice was signed the govern
ment has been borrowing at the rate
OF s60O,OO0,000 every two weeks to
meet its war obligations At this rate
II viii have obtained from the banks
OF the nation from four to five billions
of dollars before the beginning of the
NTH Liberty Loan April q.
The people of the United States.
through their representatives in Con.
gress, voted for the expenditures which
made necessary the borrowing of these
huge sums. The government in antici
patton OF patriotic support from the
country in raising the Victory Liberty
Loan has already paid the bills. In
all Justice and honesty the people of
the United States will not fail their
government and will finish the lob nv
oversabscrbing the last popular war
loan by an even larger percentage
than they did the four which have
zone before

OUR GREATEST NEED BUSINESS
ADMINISTRATION.

The greatest need of our country
is injection of business principles
into public administration. l,
We must have system of gov
eminent and we must have men to
administer and execute that govern
ment.
All this being true, government
therefore resolves itself into a bus
mess, pure and simple, and the Of
ftceholders who conduct That bust
ness are the employees of the public
and nothing else.
But we must recognize that we
have among us a distinct class
known as politicians. They are af-
flicted with an itch for Office, which
is really disease.
The mercenary office seeker should
be the easiest to deal with when we
have made up our minds TO clean
this whole business up. 1t should
be no trouble whatever to obliterate
from the atmosphere the stencil of
the cheap professional politician.
Every community is well ac-
Quainted with that species. What
they see is an easy living at the
public expense. Their idea is to sit
in an office smoking cigars with
their feet on a desk and get a sal
airy for it out if the taxes that the
rest of us pay on what we have
acquired in property by endless in
dustry and hard work.
Industries and. business must not
only pay the bills for the services
of the professional but suffer intol-
cradle interference frc.n that class.

THRIFT MEANS

Oh. WE'RE GENEROUS.

To the Editor of THE STARS AND
STRIPES:
! read in your last issue what a
hard time you boys had getting
your paper started and putting it on
its feet financially, so thought
you'd be glad to know that we fell
lows in the A. E. F. sure appreciate
your efforts in our behalf.
Take in the single matter of
candy, chocolate, cigarettes, cigars
and jam, etc, which through the
Q. NJ, the Y. NJ. C. A., and the Red
Cross, you furnish us every week in
the columns of THE STARS AND
STRIPES. For instance, week be-
fore last you gave us, if / remember
correctly, 100000 pounds of candy
(nlostly stick candy and lemon
drops, because soldiers seem to pre-
fer that kind), 100000 bars of
chocolate, 60,500,00O cigarettes;
and 100000 pounds of jam, to say
nothing of cigars and chewing gum.
OF this great total for the whole A.
E. F., my share for that week may
be obtained by using 100000 (the
approximate number of members in
the A. e. F.) as a division and al
lowing fractional parts of million.
0,000's, say, to be distributed,
in addition, among the hard work
ing boys Of the S. o. S. and the r.
T.. O.
By simple arithmetic, then, you
will see that in one week alone |
am indebted to THE STARS AND
STRIPES for two pound boxes of
candy, three bars (5-cent size, of
caurse) of chocolate, three packages
of cigarettes, and a one-half pound
can of jam.
For some reason, since l have
been here in France. I've had an
awful craving for sweet stuff, but
generally whenSI went into a store
to buy some, the only kind l could
get was that stuff the French call

THE WRONG WAY TO DO 1T

T EADING members of the Governors
- constitutional commission, in session
in Harrisburg, are said to be assuming
that their duty is to rewrite the consti-
tuition so that the calling of a Iconstitu-
tional convention shall be unnecessary.
When the law authorizing the Cover
nor to appoint the commission was
passed, it was not understood that this
was to be it's function. 1t was to study
the constitution in the light of modern
conditions with view to discovering
what changes ought to be made and to
report to the next Legislature. The law
authorizes it to recommend the best way
to have these changes made. Under this
grant of power it can, it is true, advise
against a constitutional convention.
1t would be grave mistake, however,
for the commission to assume that con-
stitutional convention is unnecessary.
The only proper way to revise the con-
stitution and bring it up to date is
through the election of a body of dele
gates by the people and by commission
ing those delegates to do the work.
Twenty-Five men and women cannot do
it. Though they were the ablest twenty
five citizens of the commonwealth they
could not properly speak for the people
of the state without mandate of the
electorate. 1t is not democratic, that is
to say. truly representative, to make a
constitution in such a way.
When the commission was appointed
it was understood that it was to clear
the ground for a convention by doing
some of the preliminary work. 1t was
expected to point out the Inconsistencies
in the present document and to show how
they could be removed and how the con-
stitution could be simplitied by the omis-
sion of all the present complicated re-
strictions upon the Legislature and by
| providing for a grant of power with
wide discretion in its exercise.
Instead of doing this, however, the
commission is considering such a silly
provision as that all bills passed by the
Legislature should be punctuated be-
fore they are passed, and other provi-
sions that have no place in the funda-
mental law.
If the apparent purpose of the COM
mission is carried out it will be impos-
sible to put any of the amendments into
effect until the beginning of 1924. And
they cannot go into effect even then un-
less two Legislatures consent to submit
them to the voters in November, 1923.
If the commission were devised solely
as an expedient for delay, its course
could not be more ably directed to that
| end than it appears at present.

Member of the Associated Press
INTO THE DISCARD

nOCTOR GARFIELD'S job never was
~ enviable He will go down in his
tory as the man who invented heatless
Mondays and gasolineless Sundays and
dark and dismal evenings every night in
the week. He will hold the novel distinc-
tion of having a high appointment to
protect the public from lack of fuel and
fulflling his mission by depriving it of
that very commodity on spectacular
scale never before dreamed of.
Most people, remembering only such
dscomforts, will agree that he and his
whole fuel administration were failures
from beginning to end. So his passing
into the White House discard is not
likely to bring him any very profound or
abiding sympathy.
But it is irony that he should earn
his exit by protesting against the usual
and familiar passing of the buck to the
dear old public
Yet, as he passes from the stage, he
may find consolation in the fact that he
joins a distinguished company il the
"This Way Out Club" of which Messrs.
Garrison. Hf,.vey, Eryan and House are
leading me%bers.

LESS PLATITUDEs, MORE PORT

A GOOD many Philadelphians have
:. = favored forty-foot channel and port
expansion in just about the same spirit
as they have admitted the obvious ad-
vantages of virtue, liberty and independ-
ence. Attractive programs always have
host of friends. 1t is the real workers
that are so often lacking.
Fortunately George F. Sproule, named
by Mayor-elect Moore as the new director
of the Department of Wharves, Docks
and Ferries, deals more largely in the
.reslities than in the platitudes of his
speciality. He has an excellent record as
secretary of the board of port wardens
and secretary of the commissioners of
navigation. He is versed in the needs
of the harbor and efficient ways of filing
them.
His appointment is hopeful sign that
the commercial facilities of Philadelphia
may catch up at last to the constantly
Increasing and broadening commercial
opportunities.

I is 1T THE SAME OLD STORY?

MEN in Washington are now begin
AZ ming to say that the soft coal strike
was brought about by something resem-
bling collusion between the miners and
the operators so that the miners might
get higher pay and the operators might
get higher prices.
If it shall appear that the public has
been fooled, there must be reckoning,
which will demand the creation of per-
manent tribunal for the settlement of
labor disputes before which the interests
of the public will be set forth as of at
least equal Importance with the interests
Of the workers or the employers in each
industry.
Any tribunal which permits the work
ers and the employers to cooperate for
their own profit regardless of the public
is pernicious.
