AS for that women's bank to be

For several decades the tendency has

The Dog Haters

A story calculated to make dog
haters grit their teeth finds it's way
into print. An East Side collie
awakened his master, told him
things were not as they should be,
and thus secured a prompt turning
in of fire alarm which saved many
lives.
At rare intervals a case Of rabies
develops. With &his as a basis the
dog haters have secured a code whose
severity is such that once in while
it naturally breaks down some dogs
nervous system. Leashed and wear
ing mask Or jaw straps, mans best
friend is denied normal life. If, his
patience exhausted and his temper
frayed, he bites anything, no matter
whether by accident or with ample
justification, he is thrown into Jail
without trial. Not satisfied with
this, there is a constant outcry for a
practical determination of the spe-
cies, with only enough left to pro-
vide raw material for vivisectionists.
Yet if a score we're kept showing
in one column the number of human
lives mans devoted servitor has
saved and in another the number in
anywise lost through him, the dis
proportion would be vastly greater
than between the totals Of Harding
and Cox electoral votes, "A dogless
civilization would be one wherein life
insurance rates would be raised.
The psychology Of the dog hater
has never been satisfactorily ex-
planned. He exists-that is all we
know about him. He can scarcely be
said to take pleasure in his malig-
nancy, for he is gloomy and somber,
yet he stubbornly clings to his
frenzy, putting in time inventing
calumnies which one look into 8

The One Kew

The public has struck against high
prices, and shutdown factories and
lcngthening lines of unemployed are
the consequence. The depression in
the clothing trade Of this city is an
extreme instance Of what is going
on in the whole country.
Is there way out? Is there any
method by which prices can be
brought down to levels at which the
consumer will buy while wages
stay up?
There is just one. 1t has been
proposed by the clothing manufac-
turers of the city, but has thus far
been rejected by the workers. 1t is
to increase production. Through
union regulation production per
worker per hour has been greatly
rQduced-at the same time that
wages have been forced up. AS
lcng as the public was willing to buy
at proportionately higher prices this
process could go on, indefinitely. But
now that the publ|c c has struck the
workers must face the facts.
No one knows what the productive
capacity of the modern worker or
shop is. But them have been ample
successful experiments to show how
hugely production can be increased
when body OF employees turns loose
its energy and ingenuity and all
around practical skill to increase
production instead of to reduce it.
1t is safe guess that the clothing
workers Of any shop in New York
could, If they would, so increase pro-
ductiOn as to make it entirely pos
sible for the manufacturers to pay
the present rate of wages and sell at
prices which the public will pay
And this without longer hours or
undue speeding.
Increased production per human
being-it is the one key that can un-
lock the door Of high wages and low
prices. Many of our most fntelli-
gent workers understand this truth
How long will it be before the mass
of workers accepts it? Unless anC
until they do accept it unemployment
and bread lines are as inevitable as
the multiplication table.

Americans Last

Mexico has agreed to make repa-
ration to the widow Of William S.
Benton, a British subject, murdered
on February II, 1914 The Benton
case made a great stir in the days
before the World War. 1t was dis
cussed in the British Parliament and
our government was brought into the
discussion because of its offer of as
sistance in investigating the circum
stances of Benton's death. The latter
was first reported to have been killed
in Villas headquarters at Juarez by
Villa himself. The bandit chief, then
serving as Constitutionalist gen
eral under Carranza, next gave out
the story that after quarrel he had
knocked Benton down and turned
him over to drumhead court mar
tial for execution. Later Carranza
commission announced that there
shad been no personal encounter with
Villa, but that Benton, having been
arrested, was shot on railroad
train by Major Fierro, one of Villa s
subordinates.
In the early part of 1914 the Car
rama government was merely revo-
lutiorarv rump. Great Britain had
no consuls in the territory which
Carranza occupied, and the United
States, having consuls there took
over the diplomatic inquiry as mat
ter of courtesy. The Constitutional
lists didn't come into power in the re-
public until after the war had begun
and Great Britain, then too busy to
push claims against Carranza, left
them temporarily in the hands of the
United States.
1t is gratifying to know that the
government which has displaced
Carranza's has now reached the
point of disposing of the Benton
case. In so far as our State Depart
ment contributed to the settlement
there is ground for satisfaction. But
The claims Of hundreds of American
citizens killed or robbed by Mexicans
are still unsettled. Are Briton's S
rights superior to an Americans?
New-York tribune., 1920-11-10

Americans have been murdered,
plundered, kidnapped for ransom,
imprisoned and maltreated without
any successful protest from Wash
ington. The extraordinary doctrine
was proclaimed by the Wilson Ad-
ministration that Americans who
had gone into Mexico were "ad-
venturers," who were taking their
chances in danger zone, and
couldn't be protected in their rights
without interfering unduly in Mex
ico's domestic affairs.
When are the thousands of Ameri-
can claims against Mexico to be set
tied? In this matter also is it to be
a case Of America last?

Belated School Checks

To the Editor Of The Tribune
Sir: We are anxious to enlist the
support of your very influential paper
in an effort to obtain the prompt pay
ment of evening school checks.
There was time when the day school
pay rolls left the various school offices
on the goth of the month and the
checks generally were ready for dis
tribution on the 1st of the following
month. The evening school pay rolls
leave our offices on the last day of
the month and the checks come along
in the course Of time! This irregu-
larity means needless hardship and
embarrassment, for it is impossible
to contract to pay bills at any speci-
fed time.
What business house would be al
lowed to pay its employees almcst
month after completion Of services i?
The unions would not tolerate such
state Of affairs, yet unions are con-
sdered by many as unethical in our
profession.
The September pay rolls reached the
teachcrs-through the police stations.
on the 22d of October.
If the day checks can be ready in
shorter space of time, why cannot
those Of the evening schools be ready
in the same time? There are fewer
schools. L. Nj. ELLIOT.

Radical Groanings

Sonlber, when not sour, are the
reflections of the radical press as it
struggles to reconcile the election
with its fixed ideas. The event does
not dovetail into radical philosophy.
Sad is the hour for the young
geniuses who have hopefully con-
cluded their letters with yours for
the Revolution"
So they resort to the not wholly
original retort Of sticking out their
tongues, as it were, at the populace
They mutter about "nob psychol-
ogy." They "cuss" the jury Their
faith in democracy is chiled-runs
down toward zero. When the coun-
try, against their urgings for ne
gotiated peace in Germany's inter
est, soberly went into the war, they
comforted themselves with the
thought that suddenly the masses
had become hysterical. But there
was no hysteria in the dull political
campaign. What was done was in
cold blood. So the only solace is to
paint a future wherein progress and
liberalism will be PROSTATE under
the heel of soggy Toryism.
That there is pleasure in gloomy
prognostication many generations OF
bad losers have shown, and it may be
inhuman to throw doubt in the pres
ent instance on the validity of exen
this heavy JOY. Nevertheless, the
claims Of truth are peremptory. 1t
does not appear that real progress
has received blow, or genuine lib
erahsm so much as a buffet.
The victim of popular condemna-
] ton is merely that spurious, super
fetal and half-baked variety Of rad
icalism which recently has been al
fected by the inteligentsia. Shall
low and hollow, it collapsed before
the breath Of common sense. Like
the European original whose ideas
they borrowed and whose phrases
they adopted, empty doctrinaires
rejected and ridiculed spiritual
promptings as motives OF human
conduct. The only instruction man
kind received, it was held, was from
its stomach, and a man was. con-
ceived of as normal and typical who
has never existed on land or sea.
Actual men and women objected to
the caricature and voted their re-

swer. 1t replied that as closely as it

Deceiving Naval Recruits

"Two huge fleets will encircle the
globe" next June, according to Mr..
Daniels. Flaming posters announc-
ing this policy are displayed at re-
cruiting stations with the statement
that "this stupendous armada is
aimed to be spectacle that will
impress the world with America S
naval power" Mr.. Daniels cannot
commit the next Secretary Of the
Navy to such policy, but he can
embarrass him by putting him in a
position where he will seem to have
broken a promise to naval recruits.
Political and other conditions "next
June" may positively forbid this
projected cruise.
There are hundreds Of excellent
reasons why young Americans
should enlist in the navy. They get
an excellent physical and vocational
training. The navy itself offers
them a wonderful carefr, and
should they wish for any reason to
return to ciYl life their naval train
ing fits them for success in many
trades and professions.
There is no excuse, therefore, for
deceiving our young men by holding
out the lure or promise of a world
cruise which may not be carried
out. Service in the navy usually
gives men chance to see much of
the world. But special promises Of
this kind are wrong.
We do not want enlistments OBJ
tanned under false pretenses, and
Secretary Daniels has no more
power to bind the country to send
two fleets on long cruises next June
than President Wilson had to fasten
a treaty on the country without the
approval Of the Senate.

Sir: SO far rs the individual is con-

the s4,OOo,0OO,0OO tax budget contem-

on incomes over $4,000.
In general, no man should be taxed

The Occasional Sex Line

There arc just enough isolated ex-

of the sex line drawn in business and
in politics to prove the rule That
rule was abundantly eXemplified in
the late election. 1t is that women
American women, at any rate
vote as human beings, not as q class

in politics was never anything more
than bogey invented by the anti
sutfragists to worry the easily fright

The burg OF Yoncalla, Oregon, is
the only completely feminist spot in
the country thus far reported. AS
it had only 233 inhabitants in 1910.

Breaking the Solid South
VIII Toters Some Time Feel Free
10 Vote as Theu Wbh2
To the Editor Of The Tribune.

10 the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: One phase OF the present Presi-
Dental election has received little or
no publicity, and that is the breaking
up OF the Solid South.
Being constant traveller in all the
Southern states. it has been my privilege
to speak to some of the most prominent
tinanciers, business men and merchants,
as well as clerks, farmers and laboring
men. They were all of the same opin-
ion, viz, that the Republican party
could do no more harm than the pres
ent Administration had accomplished
and the chances were of their recon
structing government policies.
The Republicans scored. perhaps, their
greatest victory Of the election right in
the so-called "Sold South" AS we all
know, Tennessee went into the Repu5-
lican column; San Antonio, the larges.
city in Texas, elected a Republican for
Senator.
New Orleans cast 10000 votes for
Aioi VlAS. <hIlautd, D-iiIll SAdlu ehu
Houston also showed that the Wilsonian
regime was not appreciated.
Thousands voted for Cox because they
were compelled to. Others voted for
Cox and wagercd that the Republicans
would win. Scores of Democrats in
New Orleans bet 5 to that Harding
would win.
The inland farmers were tho reason
why the Republican party did not carry
more states. These men seldom see
newspaper and often do not learn the
candidates names until reaching the
polls, where they, out of custom, put
an X in the Black Star column.
We look forward eagerly to the free
dom of the South, when man can
vote his own convictions and not cast
vote for the minority party with guilty
feeling that if the act were ever dis
covered his career in the section would
be over.

thing that moves in a. mysterious way

that the condition Of the world, pleas

OF actions Of the people prompted by
their state of mentality.
With the coming of war q spirit of
fight was created within the populace
resulting in universal solemnization
and individual gloom. The war being
over, world wide conditions call for TIE
exercising Of the same degree Of per
