The Federal Trade Commission
proposes the establishment Of federal
markets for perishable food products,
to be operated in all large cities. It
suggests, also, the setting up of q
federal licensing system to apply to
all dealers in such foods. The COM

matter is like that Of a physician

the Federal Trade Commiosion--im-

The suggestion for the federal

The French Communists.

France defles the radical socialists
who, at their Tours meeting, declared
association with the third interna-
tionale 1T Moscow. The chamber Of
Deputies by q vote Of 451 to 81 has
expressed confidence in the govern
ment after it had definitely announced
that it would vigorously resist all
activities looking to the setting up Of
. revolutionary standard in France. A
remarkable scene was enacted in the
chamber, when a socialist deputy
vehemently announced that the new
communist party would continue, de-
spite any governmental efforts. and
eulogized the third internationale,
Lenin and Clara Zetkin, the German
radical who somehow slipped over the
frontier and was wildly greeted by the
Tours meeting. Demands for his ex-

was taken. The issue is now definite

The Eyes Of a Child.

There is a power given by Provi-
dence to men and women and especial
ly to children to sense that which is
for the time outside their environ
ment. It brings one joy or suffering.
It conjures up pictures that agonize
or delight. It Is called imagination.
Close your eyes and think Of starv-
ing child in Europe. Do this in fact.
Little and cold and hungry, the pic
ture comes too wildly. There is that
in the eyes that cuts like a knife, a
child's bewilderment over its sufferings,
sufferings for which an adult world
is alone to answer. They are seeking
yours, those eyes. big and dark and
terrified, speaking of lost dreams and
Of the nightmare that comes when
they in turn are closed. There's a
hand, fragile as joy, reaching shyly,
yet hopefully, for yours. Pinched with
cold and hunger, despoiled of the heri-
tage of childhood-knowing without
understanding that If you turn away
your head it must face death itself.
This is but part of the picture
words are not needed to fill it out.
Keep your eyes closed. The picture,
taking on the features Of some well
loved youngster. must be endured.
Then open your eyes. Are they wet
and blurred with tears? Do you fear
to close them again? There is a way
to free yourself of that fear and the
children Of Europe from theirs. And
imagination. which can agonize, can
likewise bless.

Vale, 1920.

To the waning year respects are
paid as period Of many worthy ac-
complishments. 1t was marked by no
great disasters and, though that was
a negative circumstance, it stood for
a positive advantage, in the light of
the horrors that had so shortly before
been experienced. The world gained
toward readiustment and definite
peace, though here and there strife
continued and passions famed. The
record was better than many had
feared.
In this country the year was good.
It saw the passing Of a great curse,
the evil of alcohol freely dispensed
and used in demoralization Of the peo-
pIe, Some reaction has occurred, and
some delay In the full enforcement OF
the law has been met, but the country
has accepted the new condition not
only cheerfully, but gladly on the
whole. In after years the emancipa-
ton Of 1920 VIII be noted as one Of
the greatest forward steps the Amer
lean nation has ever taken.
The year was marked by one moro
demonstration Of the self-governing
capacity Of the people. A national
election occurred, a peaceful revolur
ton resulted. The manifestation OF
the public win was remarkable for its
sweep and decisiveness. And imme-
diately after the result was known, be-
fore its overwhelming completeness
was fully understood. the people ac-
cepted 1t In the fullest good faith and
prepared for the change that had been
ordered. Thus for the thirty-fourth
time in their history the voters Of the
country declared their choice Of one
of their number for President and pro-
ceeded about their business calmly
assured that all was well with Amer
lea.
Abundant crops, a good measure Of
Industrial activity, less unemploy-
ment than had been feared, fewer dis
turbances Of working relations than
were predicted. a more wholesome set
tlement hack from the abnormal
heights Of prices than seemed possible
these were features Of 1890 upon
which the country may wen now. in
these last hours Of the year. congratu-
late itself.

things that might well have not oc-

health. But these are to be ignored.

The year was good. It closes with

The Inaugural Reception.

Evidences or mQ1SpOS1tlOn TO grant
the use of the Pension building for
the inaugural reception March have
appeared on the part of the members
of the joint committee Of Congress
charged with the duty of arranging
for the induction Of the President into
Office. 1t IS urged that this use Of the
big brick structure delays the trans
action of government work, that it
deteriorates the building and that it
endangers the records. On these
points there may be differences Of
opinion. There can be no question
that there is no other place in Wash.
ington which is so well suited to such
large affair as the assemblage of the
people to greet the new executive.
The Capitol is proposed as substi-
tute for the Pension Office. While there
is a certain appropriateness about
holding the reception in that building,
it cannot be regarded as well suited
to the purpose. For one thing, it is
necessarily in use up to and beyond
No adequate provision could possibly
be made for its decoration and prepa-
ration for the occasion, for the closing
hours of the expiring Congress are
filed with the most active work of the
congressional year-and every part Of
the building is teeming with official
life. Barely eight hours would remain
after the departure Of the legislators
following the official ceremonies on the
front steps before the assemblage Of
the throngs to participate in the un.
official ceremonies of the evening.
If the citizens of Washington are to
bear the burden Of preparation for
this great event, to provide the means
for its suitable arrangement, for the
provisions for the comfort and con.
venience Of the immense numbers who
flock here from all parts Of the coun-
try, there should be some assurance
Of q means whereby the great cost
can be most widely distributed. The
people who come are eager for
chance to attend the reception-ball and
to pay the really reasonable charge

In any case, decision on this point

Plotting Against Labor.

Unemployment is widespread and
rapidly increasing. A month ago the
American Federation Of Labor placed
tho number OF men out Of work 1t
100000. Where employment con.
tinues 1t 10 often on part time or At
reduced wages. Everywhere ware
houses and shopkeepers' shelves are
loaded with goods unsold and un-
salable. Yet the far-famed buyers
strike continues. And labor strikes
and the rumorS Of labor strikes
abound.
What is the motive behind all this
agitation? To the common-senee view
there is only one explanation Of all
this. It is diabolical conspiracy Of
capital. Overloaded with unsold goods
and confronted by a sudden cessa-
tion Of buying power, employers have
fomented strikes In order to put q
stop to production and thus maintain
prices until they have worked Off
their old stocks. The only alternative
is suggested by the Chance exclama.
