A COSTLY VETO.

On the eve of the adjournment Of congress
the president fit to veto the budget bill
Representing the work Of joint budget com
lnittee composed of members of both senate and
house who had held protracted hearings and
given months of study to the question, the meas
ure was designed to coordinate revenues and
expenditures Of the government in such way
as to bring an annual saving to the people of
hundreds of millions Of dollars. Mr.. Wilson adj
mitted that he favored the general policy of the
proposed law, but because the bill did not be-
stow upon him the power to remove two OF the
officials appointed under it, he assumed the
grave responsibility of throwing the whole
. measure into the discard.
There have been few acts of congress that
have received the attention at the capitol and
the discussion through the public press that
have been given to the budget bill Practically
everyone has recognized the substantial econ
omies in federal financing that could be effected
under its terms It's passage represented the
elimination of the efforts Of public spirited men
In both houses of congress over a period Of
years, during which time many bills pertaining
to the subject have been introduced and con-
sidered. Special exe1tion was made during the
closing days of the session to get the budget bill
through in order that the estimates for the fiscal
year ending June thi1tiath, 1922, might be pre-
pared under it's provisions Congress succeeded
il, doing it's part in the great reform After ex-
haustive study the measure was passed by both
houses, a conference committee compromised
the differences in thought between the senate
and house of Representatives and it's report was
accepted The bill was put into final form and
sent to the white house for the signature that
would make it law. With a few strokes of the
pen Mr.. Wilson vetoed the measure and nullifed
4 the painstaking study which it's sections repre-
sented.
That the veto should have come on the eve of

initiative. stimulated by the right
Of private property, free thought
and speech, respect for life. the
accumulation and free employ
ment of capital, the ballot and
trial by jury-have all been sup
pressed. The classes which had
acquired knowledge have been al
most wiped out, and with them
the leadership essential in mod
ern life and in modern progress,
in economics, finance, and social
organization. The result is that
all constructive activities in
Russia are nearly paralyzed and
there is an organization of ignor.
ant force dominated and directed
by a few fanatics and a greater
number. though still small
minority, of self-seekers. The
brain still controls the hand, but
it is not the brains of Russia, but
the brains of a very few men,
many of them not Russian, who
have contrived to control enough
blind force to master the whole.
In Russia, instead of evolution
through the mind, there is a
throw back to the tyranny Of the
jungle law, and the land is almost
a waste after two years of blood
shed and destruction.
This is the picture drawn by
men who have been in Russia and
seen with their own eyes, heard
with their own ears, what they
report. In America the radicals
shut their eyes to these facts be-
cause these facts explode their
theories and stultffy their claims.
But there is one radical, at least
who cannot shut her eyes % the
truth because she is in the thick
of it
You're right, it is rotten" she
said to Mr.. Clayton. But il IS
what we should have expected.
We always knew the Marian
theory was impossible. breeder
of tyranny. We blinded ourselves
to it's faults in America because
we believed it might accomplish
something. I've been here four
months now, and I've seen what
it has accomplished. There is no
health in It"
The hand never will rule the
brain for any time. In moments
of madness when it does it de-
stroys itself Labor of the hand,
which topsy turvy theorists would
set up to rule, must always be
directed by the conceiving and
planning mind. By this alone
can the hand exist. The hand
can contrive only the simplest
necessities. Labor without, CAPT
tai and direction must dwell in
the cave Of the primitive man.
When it seeks to rule it wipes
out what makes labor endurable
and in the progress of the human
has brought labor out of darkness
to a great and growing share in
the rewards of civilization.

Cut EN- Out.

Ottumwa Courier: Now that OF
tumwa, for a little while at least, IS
without carnival company within
its gates, it is splendid time for
citizens and officials to consider the
matter of maintaining that condition.
Countless complaints of almost un-
restricted gambling have been made
against the carnival concerns that
have operated here during the pres
ent season. If it is proper for these
firms to conduct gambling devices,
privilege should not be denied anyone
else. But there are laws against
gambling, and when these laws are
broken the offense should be punished.
The theory that the Carnival spirit
makes legal that which actually is
illegal is theory that does not stand
close scrutiny.
An occasional carnival need not ex-
cite particular opposition, but as a
regular diet the thing becomes nause-
ating.

A Simple Way To
Remove Dandruff

There is one sure way that has never
failed to remove dandruf at once, and
that is to dissolve it, then you destroy
it entirely. To do this, just get about
four ounces of plain, common liquid
arvon from any drug store (this IS alt
you will need), apply it at night when
retiring -; use enough to noisten the scalp
and rub it in gently with the finger tips,
By morning most, if not all, of your
dandruf will be gone, and three or four
more applications will completely dis
solve, and entirely destroy, every single
sign and trace of it, no matter how much
dandruf you may have.
You will find all itching and digging
of the scalp will stop instantly and your
hair will be fluffy, lustrous, glossy, silky
and soft and look and feel a hundred
times better.

ers It may. be said that they use the most
expensive form of iron peptona.e, whereas
by employing other makes they could have
put the same quantity of actual iron in the
tablets at less than one-fourth the cost and
By using metallic iron they could have re-
duced the cost to less than one-twelfth, but
by thus cheapening the product they would
undoubtedly have impaired its therapeutic

TODAY'S BIT OF VERSE
THE CLOSE OF THIS FAIR d.

THE CLOSE OF THIS FAIR DAY.
By the wild fencerow, all grown up
With tall oats. and the buttercup,
And the seeded grass, and blue ha3flower'
I fling myself in a nest OF green,
Walled about and all unseen,
And lose myself in the quiet hour
Now and then from the orchardtree
To the sweet clover at my knee
HUNS the crescendo of a bee,
Making the silence seem more still;
Overhead on a maple prong
The least of birds, jeweled sprite,
With FURNISHED throat and needle bill,
Ways his head in the golden light,
Till it flashes, and dulls, and flashes bright
Cheeping his microscopic song.
Far ND the hill-far1r, where the breeze
Dips its wing in the billowy grain,
Waves go chasing from the plain
On softly undulang seas;
Now near my nest they swerye and turn,
And now go wandering without aim;
Or yonder where the peoples burn,
Race up the slope in harmless flame.
Sometimes the bold wind sways my walls,
My four green walls of the grass and oats,
But never a slender column falls
And the blue sky-roof above them floats.
Cool in the glowing sun 1 feel
On wrist and cheek the sea-breeze steal
From the wholesome ocean brine.
The air is full of the whispering pine,
rf-sound OF aerial sea;
And the light clashing near and far,
AS OF mimic shield and scimitar.
OF the slim Australian tree
And now the close of this fair day was come;
The bay grew duskier its purple floor,
And the long curve Of foam
Drew its white net along a DINNER shore.
Through the fading saffron light,
Through the deepening shade of even.
The round earth rolled into the summer light,
And watched the kindlng Of the stars in heaven

POCKETED BY GREED.

w. j. Lauck, late member OF the war trade
board, gives figures to show that sugar profit
GERS will make six hundred million dollars this
year. Since 1914 the margin between the cost
of producing sugar and it's retail price has in
creased from cent pound to ten. With
sugar at less than eight cents pound wholesale
the earnings of the producers have been enor-
nous. Beet sugar concerns earned sixty pei
cent. on their invested capital and cane sugar
producers two hundred and thirty eight; and
sugar could today be sold to the consumer for
eleven and one-half cents pound if producers,
wholesalers and retailers were content with
reasonable profits.
We may expect smoke screen of denials and
evasions but there is much to indicate that Mr..
I,auck IS figures are not far from correct. Where
does the difference between five cents a pound
and thirty cents 90 if not into the pockets of
greed'
Announcement by the railroad wage board
that the wage scale set by it's coming decision

scale is known and it's demands on operating in
