Most of the readers of The Times, Democrats as well
as Republicans must have been filed with amazement
and indignation this morning when they read an ed-
toral in that newspaper in which the charge directly
made that there is Republican opposition in congress
to the passage of an act granting bonus former
vice men, This matter is still in committee, and there
is no way Of telling yet who is for it who is against
IT. Indeed there is as yet measure to be for or
against Hcriticsm of of the plans may be taken
as an indication of hostility, then the Democratic Sec
rotary of the Treasury is not only the otspoken
but the most influential opponent the movement has
but there are other representatives of the Democratic
administration who belong in the same class. The
bonus proposition is tremendous one 1t will involve
better than two billions of dollars and that does not
mean the same thing that it did while the country
was at war and the government in position to take
the earnings Of the people fast they accumulated
If the money is to be raised by taxation take just
that amount out of the ordinary channels of business
and for time slow up the to normal of com
merce and industry If it is to be provided through
bond issue the value of other bond outstand
ing against the American government will be depressed
If the men turned their bonds into cash rapidly this
depression would disturb loans bond col
lateral and cause end of banking disturbance These
the major problems which the members of the Ways
and Means committee of the house as the propo-
ston is being threshed out So far this newspaper
has been able to observe there has no serious OBJ
position in or out Of congress to bonus but recog
nzed in responsible circles and out of congress that
the details must be worked with care If what is in
tended sincerely to be benefit for the service men does
not turn out to be calamity for the country And
while the solution is being sought earnestly is
temphble to try to make political issue out It. 1t
would be hard to do the American Legion and the for
mer service men generally greater injury than to de-
velop that spirit as such a time.

NAKED FACES.

HE philosopher Schopenhauer once said that men
acquired boards to conceal their face: when they
were deceNng while women were such eonsunmate de-
,eeiyers that they did not need them.
The hairy face Of brute marks his social neapaety
dog may express emotion by growls andbars or bodily
contorons and rough embraces No play Of fine emotion
visible beneath the thick hair Of his face His social
instincts work themselves out eudey and at long distance
They fit a world of action but not one of repose. q
How different is the human face with its myriad shades

surroundings Thus her bare face marks the acme Of

much further from the brues and from the world of lifeess
things with their hard mechanical relations And if indeed
she can deceive easily than man. she can also sub

What qualiacationslare Necessary for a wo-
man to succeed in businesss was asked re-
Gently
But in answering / could mot conhne myself
strictly to the question. for have failed to ind
any sex in the gray matter commonly called
brains.
why dinerentiatee I cannot; for the only
difference have found is that which Is the result
OF education. of environment, and these. IL has
been clearly demonstrated, can be obtained. can
be acquired. So
To be sure the number of women up to now
who have succeeded in business is pltifuIly small
! when compared to the number OF men who have
succeeded in business.
But give them time. y z
Remember It is scarcely generation since
women have been allowed the opportunity to work
shoulder to shoulder with men, to get a real
chance; and even now you will find some folks
who are biased some unprogressive humans who
win say that a woman place is in the home
There are still men who, though they openly
applaud, secretly resent swomans entrance into
business and particularly into their special fields
of activity. ssss
believe that the qualifications for success ,
in business are the same for women as for men.
And the fact that women are supposed generally
to lack most Of these qualities IS perhaps the
reason why they develop them so quickly and so
strongly. They acknowledge their weakness.
their inability. and determinedly set out to CON
quer them.
1t takes big man to do likewise
Now this is not slam at men. / am not
man hater, nor am one OF those over-progres-
sive women who refuse to recognize the sterling
character and splendid achievement Of men
Butimany years in business. WORKING with
and for both men and women. has resulted in
these deductions:
Temper, hysteria. lack Of endurance. prejt-
dice, envy, Jealousy, the weaknesses OF mind and
body are just as likely to be found in. the male
as in the female of the human species.
And these things do not make for success
in business.
