Truth Alone Is Important
Al ARK SULLIVAN, an intelligent observer, fea
wi the memoirs of the late William f. McComb

r ARK SULLIVAN, an intelligent observer fears that
VI the memoirs of the late William f. McCombs deal
ing especially with the Of Woodrow Wilson,
"w not help toward lifting the world out Of its troubles"
Mr. Sullivan thinks, apparently that it is not good
thing to print memoirs that tell unpleasant truths about
important men.
But in that Mr.. Sullivan is mistaken.
Only the TRUTH in Mr.. McCombs memoirs in any
thing else have any permanent effect What is NOT
true dies away.
The truth about Mr.. Woodrow Wilson, Mr.. McCombs
tells it, may not help to Lift the world out of its troubes
but it MAY help to keep the world this part of it in the
United States, from making awful fool Of itself
more. And if they do that, Mr. McCombs' memoirs will
be extremely useful.
The world needs the truth and especially the truth about
whom it puts in high office and whom for period
it trusts.
Mr.. Wilson proved himself migrate, in the of
McCombs Others the world know it. for the
type of most undesirable and in the long most
useless is THE MIGRATE.
Where there ngrattude there other defective quail
tiles Where there is gratitude, there is expansion
of the mind and fitness to deal with great problems If
Woodrow Wilson migrate, Harvey, McCombs and
others testify it mistake to make him President of
the United States leaving out various things that the
people have learned since the beginning of that famous
Peace Conference in Paris where Uncle Sam made

use of Education Week to devote it
all to a nationwide discussion of
better and more effective means Of
educating our people, young and old,
TO THINK.
What is the use of tools if the
possessor does not know how to use
thems
We have an enormous quantity Of
educational machinery in our coun-
try. No other nation ever boasted
such numbers of public and private
schools, of public and private Ii
braries, of books and magazines and
newspapers. And it is perfectly true
that no other country ever had a
people SO generally educated in part.
But it is also true that Of all the
millions in our country who can
read and write and talk reasonably
well, very few, very few indeed, can
think and reason accurately, clearly
and rightly to firm conviction and
conclusion.
Now we ought to be the clearest-
thinking people in the world, for we
do possess the greatest amount OF
popular ysovereignty-and therefore
the greatest personal interest in ma
tional policies and conduct-pos-
sessed by any people IN the world.
So, then, to be educated and to
keep on educating ourselves and
others is the first high duty of our
citizenship in the Republic.
Let us see if we cannot all do
something to fulfill in useful and
effective way that duty during this
week, set apart by the President for
just such a purpose.
1t was a happy thought the Presi
dent embodied in his proclamation.
Let us try to make a happy
reality of Mr.. Harding's happy
thought.

MI A. GLENN, OF the Liberty
w Advertising Agency, New
~ York, asks, "Why was
William Pitt the greatest salesman
that England knew in his time;"
Pitt certainly was a good sales
man for England, although we
should say that Shakespeare was a
much better one. His advertising
of England will outlive the memory
of Pitt.
Pitt was wise in that he knew il
did not matter how much money you
spent for advertising, or anything
worth while, if you spent it well.
He was always ready to hire people
on the Continent to fight for Eng
land, for that would save English
blood and English business. He
financed Europe against Napoleon.
When Napoleon was too old. or
rather too dyspeptic, to fight, Well
ington got the credit that Blrcher
perhaps deserved for knocking the
sick lion on the head.
Read Shakespeare's magnificent
description of the England Of his
day, to which his heart was 80
loyal, "This land, this realn, this
England" etc. The great writer's
are the great advertisers and sales
men of national glory. Through
Homer all history will know Greece.
through Dante Italy, through
Shakespeare England, through Ger
vantes Spain, through Goethe Ger
many, and France through legion
headed by Moliere, Corneille, Villon,
Rabelais, and so on down to Victor
Hugo.

Iliteracy

The Department of Com
merce, through the bureau
of the census, today issued
a statement showing the
number and proportion of
illiterates in cities having
1000 inhabitants or more,
as shown by the returns of
the fourteenth decennial
census, taken as of January
1, 1920.
Separate figures are given
for the total population Of
each city and for native
whites, foreign-born whites
and negroes.
The pronounced differ
ences between the percent
ages Of illiteracy for the
total population and for
native whites which appear
for many cities are due to
the large proportions Of
illiterates among the for
eign-born whites and the
negroes, the former having
a considerable effect upon
the average percentages in
the Northern cities and the
latter in the Southern cities.
For example, in Fall
River, Mass, where the
illiteracy in the population
ten years of age and over
was 11.9 per cent for all
classes combined, it was
only i per cent for the
native, but was 25.5 for the
foreign-born whites.
Again, in Birmingham,
Ala, the percentage of illit-
eracy was 8.4 for the total
population, or for the ma
tive whites and 1874 for the
negroes.
Among the cities having
100000 inhabitants or more,
the smallest proportion of
illiteracy for the total popu-
lation, eight-tenths of 1 per
cent, is that for Spokane;
for the native whites the
smallest proportion, one
tenths of l per cent, APP
pears for Boston, Cam
bridge, Hartford, Minneap-
oils, Seattle and Spokane;
for the foreign-born whites
It is 3.3, for Spokane, and
for the negroes it is 10, for
Grand Rapids, Rochester
and Seattle.

Standard Oil Diplomacy

THERE is some genuine diplomacy in the United
States; if you want to see good sample of it, stud
the Standard Oil Company.
Quietly gently without any conference, loud speeche
they have engineered oil permits in Persia. Over thel

profit, little dreaming that below lay untold millions

The real diplomat and eenaneFor is COMMERCE.
While many wonder what is the matter with the wor
and what ruined Germany sad her eafseacy the answer
plain enough Germany has been ordered to pay in COL
more gold than there is IN THE WORLD. Radum j
worth $4,000 per gram. If Germany were ordered
pay ton of radium and had to buy it with paper marks
how much would the marks be WORTH She told
to pay gold that does not exist She can't do it, but she
ruin manufacturers and workers in other countries
and that is what she is doing because she cannot help
herself
France and some other countries don't want Germany
invited to the Conference UNLESS the United States viii
help collect the German indemnity, guarantee it.
If the President invites Germany and talk as
he has right to d. it will be to get information for him
