When the iiteracy test was put be- 1cre the country as a means of re- ssricting the undesirable aliens it was pointed out that it was likely to have effects far different than was antici- patsd and that those who were in- tended to be reached by it would get through Ike water through a sieve.
 The law mas been in eIect several years. That 1t has prevented undesir- abies from coming into the country is uncertain. That it has stopped others who there is no reason bo expect but what would become good citizens is known Today the country is suffer ing from a lack of production. It is impossible to get sufficient labor and particularly hard hit are the farmers to whom we look for our foodstufs They cannot compete with the prices paid by manufacturers and they are fncsd with the alternative of curtail. ing production in a corresponding de. gree with the inability to get help.
 Under these conditions a move ha. been started with the view to rescind. inE. the iiteracy law with the idea o rncouraging immigration by removing what blocks many in class of thos, Uho have come to these shores be- fore and been found desirable and tn, utilization of other restrictions for keeping cut the undesirabies.

That the lower house of congress would act favorably upon the resolu- ton declaring war at an end between this country and Germany was a foregone conclusion. There had been little question regarding it even bes fore the test vote on Thursday, but that showed what could be expected. But the test vote was only a partial indication of the real sentiment and failed to incliie many of the mem bers who were in favor as the vote at Inc time of the adoption shows. for Inc resolution was passed by a ma iorlty of ss.
 The administration was able to hold most of the democrats in line as in opposition to the plan but there were those who refused 10 be tied and it must be appreciated that Representa- tive Huddleston of Alabama dealt straightforward with the question when he declared that the treaty is dead. that there is no hope of the aeadlock being broken. that the coun- Try wants peace and after a wait oi many weary months it is tired of al the discussion and wants action tha' will end the existing situation.
 Such from a democrat from a rock, bound democratic state doesn't repre- sent a partisan view. It representi Inc attitude of the people regardless pf their party affiliation.

STRIKE uNJusrIFIEp.

How radicalism and injustice is working its way into some branches bf organized labor is indicated by the strike of switchmen which started in Chicago but which is spreading throughout the country. interrupting transportation and shutting off the means of getting necessities and raw materials Suhc conditions cannot last long but what they are with us they mean increased hardships and are the cause of throwing others out of em- pioyment.
 Whatever outsiders may think of the Justification for the strike and the intending paralysis of the railroad lines, it is impossible under the cir cunstances to disregard the state. ment made by President Lee of th. railway trainmen's brotherhood who shows what all the trouble is founded pn when. in reply to the claim -ol Inc switehmen that the strike wa, necessary to conserve the rights O Inc workers and uphold their eIain Tor a living wage, he says: 9Th question of increased wages ha nothing to do with the present trou t-~a 11~ tuc ItAuONal OI JO0Q GTundl from a position as yard conducto was the cause of few switchmer who were members of a renegade or Kanization headed by Grunau, quittin york. The question of increaset wages was later injected for the pur pose of playing upon the sympathie pf other train and yard men"
 Thus as far as any justification fo Inc strike is concerned 1t is given black eye by the head of the train mems organization. It is such a vie, ns this. accompanied by the effort which are being made to tounteras the trouble by stating that brother hood members will be protected in dc ing the work of strikers, which bring out the contrast between the san and sensible members of organized Ia bor and the radicals. The switchme lave already caused too much troub and it Is 10 be hoped that the opt mistic claims that it will be Over yer soon will prove true.

PROTECT THE SAVINGS.

Thrift doesn't amount to much un-
 less a person sees the wisdom of pro
 perly protecting his money. There are those, strange to say, who have no confidence in banking institutions
 There is very little ground for that these. days when they are so well ,su- pervised and none of course in the. old
 and well established banks. Yet ! there are those whos still cling to
 the idea that their savings are the safest in their pocket, tucked away
 back of some picture, under bed. oI slowed away in some drawer.
 The experience of such people ought to be sufficient to warn others
 against any practice. of the kind but | it doesn't. The hermit who is sup
 posed to have large sum in his pos i session, the fellow who carried bis wad or the one who is known to store 1 up his cash at home is bound te bt the object. of those who get their liv-

Can a man succeed iii business of he conducts his business on Christian prineiples2 Yes-he' can succeed in no other way The Bible agrees with common experience in teaching that the chances of success in business are not decreased. but largely in creased, if a man carries his religion into his business, and his accuniula- tions are apt to stay in the family longer.
 Integrity has commercial value. A man who has a reputation of being an honest man ana a true Christian has a better chance of getting on his feet again when he fails down.

cENsURINc FRANCE.

That the effort is being made to avoid a bEeach between France and Germany is plainly indicated in the statement made to the effect that Great Britain does not approve the action of France, that it will not participate in the occupation of Ger man territory and that a delicate sit- uation has been caused by the move.
 It cannot be contended that any of the Jallied nations desired the task of putting down the trouble in Germany It was recognized as a job that be- fonged to. the German government, but conditions in Germany have been shown to be mighty uncertain and that there are provisions of the treaty of peace which cannot be lodged if others are going to mean anything at all.
 When the statement given out in London says "The German govern ment appears, to have acted precipi- tately and France to have responded by adopting a plan which was only intended as a last resort method, and even then to have been the affair of the allies and not any one of them simply" it indicates the recognition of the first wrong move being made by Germany. It was a breach of treaty provisions and with Gerrn1ny failing to live up to others there was no telling where it would Ngo espec- ially with rdaical influences rampant in the country.
 France would naturally be expected ! to be anxious over it's projections Il i cannot be blamed if it did get a bii excited and if it moved alone on wha' was expected to be course of las I resort it made it clear that such wa: l intended simply to counteract Ger.
 many and make sure that it was no l going to get out of bounds.
 The step taken by Germany in ere
 ating the delicate situation in the frs I place cannot be disregarded when i i comes to- censuring France, whicl country is insisting upon and un-
 derstands the importance of keepinI
