Though Austria today is mere
patch: compared with ! the former en-
pire, the old government: machine,
which; was probably overstared; even
in Hapsburg days, still exists. Al
though the country is bankrupt and
the presence Of; the army of useless
functionaries makes almost any at
tempt. at rehabilitation hopeless, the
officials are determined to stick. Aus
TRANS recognize the absurdity of the
situation, but they do not know how
to get rid of the traditional bureaus,
says San Francisco Chronicle. In a
lesser measure every government has
experienced this difficulty. Let bu-
reau get established and it is easier
to move mountains than to root it out.

vantage they are, the only solution
is individual home building. 1t is
almost compulsory in view of de-
creased wages. The only solution
then in individual home building is
the necessary capital, and this can
be almost indefinitely developed
through medium of a building and
loan association, such as exist in the
larger cities. If there is room for
such a financial organization in a
town of 5000 to 1000, Paris is
surely the one best place, because
railroad terminal town and the
heart of a diversified farming sec
ton where there is something mar
kcted the year round and cash draw
ers ring all the time, there is a
surety potential that does not obtain
in the ordinary city of similar size.
The situation in the meantime
could be relieved by a little act of
conscience. Wages have been reduced.
groceries have gone down and it
looks like a further reduction is in

A gentleman walked into The
Partisan office a week ago today,
and asked the editor to write a
squib on the subject of Paris Rent
Hogs His rent had fallen due, and
iie was taxed with an increase of
% per cent over what he paid for
July just passed. He had been given
due warning that his rent would be
raised; he claims to have gotten this
warning during the recent bond is
lous owners of renting houses held
an increase threat over the heads of
their tenants, and suggested that
same would be put into effect should
the bond issue be voted. But, there
have been no developments in con-
nection with that election that could
possibly give any excuse for an in
crease in rents at this time nor,
is it probable such will obtain in the
future. The cause in this particular
instance for an increased rental is
far-fetched, and based on conditions
that have not developed, and cannot
possibly be used for an excuse.
The truth of the matter is the
Rent Hog is getting his while the
trough is filled. Houses are scarce,
and the sad-eyed men and women
who make the rounds of possible
vacancies in occupied houses are
finding only sympathy awaiting
them. Fortunate indeed is the indi-
vidual family that can get what they
want when they want it in the way
of a place to live in Paris, unless
they can afford to buy or build a
home.

WOMEN AND AUTOMOBILES.

1t is a question as to the safe
ness and saneness of women DRIVING
automobiles, whether in the city OF
country.
Several months ago a preacher in
a local pulpit said, in substance, that
women had no business driving auto
mobiles. He didn't get by with it;
several of his congregation took is
sue with him the following day,
and he was forced to make a further
explanation. We should say, for pro-
lection in this, that SO out of every
100 women are not capable of prop
erly and safely conducting the ope-
ration of an automobile--either with
safety to themselves and passengers
or TO the pedestrian.
Such has been proven time and
time again. 1t is not because wom-
en- are incompetent in any manner,
but it is more explanatory to state
that in a crisis; at a time when
quick physical action and mental
equilibriun, combined, are essential
women are. by their nature, lacking.
Many women drive automobiles and
never happen to an accident; statis-
tics will doubtless indicate that they
are more fortunate proportionately
than men. That may be true, and it
may be said to their credit, they are
more careful, and drive at a slower
speed. However, when an emer-
gency exists can it be said that
women have the ability to gather
The Parisian. (Paris, Tenn.) 1907-1962, 1921-09-02

themselves against the soft and even
endowment which they possess, and
overpower their natural characteris-
tics, born in them, and nourished
for the sake of womankind and
equal the emergency? 1t is doubt
full.
Nine women out of ten, and not
80 out of 100, will desert the steer.
ing wheel and throw both hands in
the air when the occasion is such
that an. automobile accident is in
evitable, or where there is apparent
immediate impending danger. In
stance after instance may be cited
accordingly, right here in Paris.
The one woman out of the above
100 may exist in Paris to a consider
able extent, but the estimated pro
portion we insist remains the same,
and If women just must drive auto
mobiles they should satisfy them
selves that they have the art per-
fected, and not simply know how
to kick over the self-starter, feed the
gas, and cause the car to turn at
any corner by simply pulling the
steering wheel around They might
best receive some tutorship from an
expert-not simply one who just
knows how to run a car-but some
one who knows and can explain what
to do in emergencies besides scream
ing and throwing both hands up in
the air, if it be possible at all to
overcome the latter heritage.

LABOR DAY MONDAY.


Monday next is Labor Day--na-
tionally celebrated, and the occasion
of one day in every year set aside
| in recognition of those who toll, and
in commemoration of the honor that
lies in honest toll, and the realization
that work alone is noble and can
be so thought of on one day in a
year.
The celebration of Labor Day here
is limited to a dayoff, though it
might be made an anticipated i'm
portant annual event, and the occa-
sion of a turning point in seasons
aspirations-th advent of new
seasonal synchronizing time-a
turning point of the activities of the
year, as 1t is muchly the occasion
in the north and east, and indicates
the closing of summer festivities,
bathing beaches, summer resorts, and
the beating homeward of the path
to renewed -vigor and added aspira-
tons. Back, thusly, to toil--labor.
Indeed the day this year should
be the occasion of one of thought
among the local laboring men. They
have been well cared for in the
turn of the tide; in the crisis that
has followed in the wake of the
readjustment period, and as exists
over the nation today, and which is
likely to continue existing for many
months. 1t might fittingly be a
stepping stone to the approaching
Thanksgiving Day, because in all the
lists of unemployment Paris is
probably suffering less than any
other city of similar or larger size,
scaled per capita In fact, if there
is any unemployment here it is be-
CONSOLIDATING sickness or the like
the unemployed isn't anxious, or is
financially able not to work. There
is plenty of work in and around
Paris, In some vocations there is
more than local contractors and
laboring men can take care of. True
the railroad shops have been work
ing a curtailed force, and this tenn
porarily disconnected many en-
ployes there, but they soon fell in
line with other work in progress.
Paris and Henry County has indeed
been very fortunate from the stand
point of welfare of the laboring
man. Many, including those who
toll fail to realize this, and the
condition can only be brought to
realization by studying, reading
about, and knowing conditions else
where from personal visits. The
farmer has had his hands full; he
has been on better basis from
standpoint of cultivating his crop
this year; labor has been easier, yet
want of something to do.
Conditions here adjusted them
saves rapidly, following the break
for the worse from the standpoint
of the laboring man all over the
country. The natural and physical
possibilities Of the city and county
have had largely to do with this, and
it may well be said these possibilities
have been attained. We, as city
and county, are mighty well off; we,
as people, individually and col
lectively, should feel proud of condi-
tons as they are here at home, and
continue to possess the optimistic
viewpoint that has prevailed, and
