We urge men to go to church. not primarily

because we yearn to help men share in the Life

The Third Party.

And so few OF the dissatisfied
members OF the democratic and re-
publican parties have decided to or
ganize another third party.
Robert NJ. LaFollette. that radical
despot OF the United States senate,
has been chosen as the presidential
nominee.
Third parties have come and gone,
They never amount to anything and
never will. Some OF them have
been led by real Americans, but the
last one seems to be headed by the
most radical bunch of radicals in
the country.
Always the fellow who fails TO
get in, so to speak, on the big things
in politics, or anything else, as far
as that is concerned. gathers a few
followers about him and sage we will
do this or that, or the other.
The name LaFollette means sim
pie, and nothing could have been
more appropriate for the turbulent
senator from Wisconsin whose ig-
norance is only exceeded by his
ego Sweetwater Reporter.

HIGHER RATES ON
POSTAL SAVINGS
URGED BY HOOVER

NEW YORK, Sept. 24.-Herbert
Hoover, who testified here yesterday be-
fore the senate committee on recon-
struction, declared he believed the gag
gfegate Of national savings would be
profiteering'' and paid something like
an adequate rate of interest" to de-
positors.
Reports showed. he said. that profits
obtained by the government in 1918,
bank funds in banks at ~ per cent
interest, were $1,1S5,0o0. while. he add
ed, examination of any annual postal
savings bank report would show that
depositors do not receive much more
than one per cent interest.
Mr.. Hoover declared 1t would seem
only Justice If the whole method of
payment of interest should be reor-
Ranized so as approximately to dis
tribute the profits back to the deposit
tors. He said the postal savings banks
were established for the prime purpose
ings. He asserted the stimulation, to
savings was not interest return, but
merely the inducement of safety.
THE real question at ISSUE" he said,
appears to me to be not only justice
to depositors, but also whether the
aggregate of national savings can be
increased by offering o larger return
on postal savings deposits, whether
more savings can be pulled out of stock :,
ings waste and luxuries and wild cats.
Every dollar SO saved is a contribution
TO national welfare.
Mr.. Hoover said he preferred estao.
lishment of some institution modeled
after the farm loan bank rather than
have mortgages on new construction ex,
empted from the income tax. He said
he thought the people would be willing
to submit to government direction IN
reconstruction problems. IF II took Ut me E
form of campaign of education with
recuperation abroad. he said, he ex-
pected a slackening of exports and con-
sequent relieving OF domestic conditions
He said this would not solve the imme-
date situation, but would help.
