VISIT TO JUGO-SLAVIA
Springfield Priest Departed Yester.
/ day for His Old Home. Gone
Several Months.

Rev. r. S. Rant, the popular pastor
OF st. Raphael's Catholic church at
Springfield and at one time.an assistant
priest Of Holy Trinity Catholic church
here, departed yesterday on long
journey to his old home in what is now
Jugo-Slavia, Europe. He expects to
sail Saturday of this week and will
spend several months visiting his aged
father, his brother, his sister and other
relatives.
Cherbourg, France will mark the end
OF Rev. Rants ocean voyage to Europe
and before continuing his trip to Jugo-
Slavia he expects to visit Paris and
some of the battlefelds of the World
war in France, as well as spend some
time in Rome, Italy. During his tour
of the battlefelds in France, Rev.
Rant will look up the last resting place
OF John Watson, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Watson of Springfield, who made the
supreme sacrifice in the bloody conflict
OF naClOnS.
Enroute home after visiting his birth
place, the Springfield priest will pass
through Austria, Germany and Hol-
land. This is. his second trip to
Europe since the beginning of the war.
He experienced considerable trouble
leaving that country at the time of his
previous visit in 1914. When the war
broke out he found it difficult to secure
permission to return to the United
States.
During Rev. Rants absence, ST.
Raphael's church at Springfield will be
supplied by Father of the Order OF
the Precious Blood from Varthagena,
Ohio.

Senator Lenroot of Wisconsin sound
ed prophetic warning in the national
legislative halls, when he cautioned his
colleagues against Republican extra
vagance in making appropriations.
The Wisconsin Solon, who himself is a
Republican, said: "Unless we make
reductions in the appropriation for the
Army and Navy, considering the fixed
charges with reference to interest upon
our, loans, with reference to the care
of'our soldiers, SO that we may be able
to reduce taxation in the next four
years, Republican as I am, I want to
say that four years from now, when
the votes are counted, members of
some other party will do the cheering
and not members of the Republican
party"

"inmsible" Economics:

Your servant, President Harding,

able letter recently made public by the
Commission told the President why.

their latest methods of circumventing

which you pay, say $500 for an article
which should cost $1.OO. The Com
mission properly makes no comment
on our methods of government. That
is not it's business. It tells the Presi-
dent, however, that it has been halted
for. over a year in performing the most
valuable service for which it was
created. 1t says "There is no COM

The Knox resolution declaring the
state of war with the Teutonic Powers
at an end and paving the way for a
separate peace with Germany has
struck another snag. 1t has been dis
covered that the German alien property
seized in the United States during the
war, and which has since been gobbled
up by personal friends and high politi-
cal supporters of the late Democratic
administration, is involved in the
matter, and that the resolution will
have to be much amended to protect
the present pseudo owners of this
property. The preparation of the
necessary amendment will naturally
require some time.

Sometimes it occurs that politicians
demonstrate their inconsistency by
certain utterances made in public
speeches. Our own Governor Preus
seems to have accomplished this in a
recent address before gathering of
some 10000 Norwegians, whom he
admonished in the following words to
be satisfied with their lot and not par
ticipate in the progressive movement
for better government: "You came
here for the purpose of acquiring
property and enjoying property
rights declared Minnesota's exc
cutive. eff you are to enjoy these
rights, you must join in the effort to
stamp out that pernicious propaganda
of Bolshevism, altogether too wide
spread hereabouts, for the overthrow of
the American form of government
Either Governor Preus is really
alarmed at the progress of Bolshevism
in this country, or he only thinks the
Bolshevik scare good thing to foster
as a means of keeping the politicians
of reaction in Office.
The governor apparently assumes
the greatest danger to property rights
in this country is Bolshevism. 1t does
not seem to occur to him that Boil
shevism, where it exists, is an effect,
and not cause of the denial of pro-
perty rights. 1t springs up chiefly
among people whose conditions -of life
do not permit them to acquire pro-
perty. Where there is a reasonable
chance for a man to get on in the
world, Bolshevism hasn't much show.
On the other hand, Minnesota s
super-patriotic executive is a valiant
defender Of the United States Steel
Trust and other huge corporations
that make it their business to see that

the tillers of the soil, have no op-
portunity to establish the property
rights which he regards as the corner

One of the strongest points made
against the Fordney Emergency Tariff
Bill, which recently passed both
branches of Congress and was agreed
upon in conference, was that with
starvation in many parts OF Europe,
the American farmer found no market
for his products there, even at present
prices, because of the inability of
Europe to buy, having neither money
nor credit. How, then, was Europe
to buy at increased prices? On the
other hand, it was pointed out, the
American farmer would have to pay a
higher price for his farm implements,
machinery and fertilizers by reason of
the tariff imposed upon him by the
bill The constant decline in the ex-
port trade is the best evidence of
Europe's inability to buy. In Feb
ruary, this year, the trade balance in
favor of the United States was $274,-
000,000; in March only $132, 100000,
a decline of more than SO per cent.

of them lawyers sworn to uphold the
Constitution. On referendum to
100000 voters, it would have been
enacted five to one. 1t expressed the
national will. It was signed by the
President.
What is the matter? Answer An
injunction.
Early in 1920 Congress asked the
Commission to Investigate and report
to it the exact cost of mining coal, and
appropriated $150,OO0 for the job.
The National Coal Association asked,
and single Judge granted an injunc-
ton stopping the investigation, on the
grounds that mining coal 1Oas no IN
ter-state commerce.. That is, one man,
a judge, pits his opinion and power
against the opinion and power of 531
men, lawmakers, mostly lawyers, the
president and the whole nation, with
the result that Congress and the
people for year have been in total
ignorance on this question, at a time
when coal was outrageously high and
such knowledge of vital value.
1t would be interesting to know the
cash ualue of that injunction to the
coal companies until the Supreme
Court finally decides that is, in
effect, legislates. We get hint from
fact that some IA months ago, when
the Presidents Coal Commission
granted the miners Is per cent, wage
increase, the coal men promptly an
nounced an advance of $500 per ton.
The Federal Trade Commission, how
ever, showed the increase amounted to
only as cents per ton average, and the
advance on account of wages
promptly collapsed.
Note that this injunction affects not
only coal, but everything else, and il
sustained shears the Commission of its
most important powers.
1t is not for us, however, to rail at the
judges. They are exercising powers
conferred by legal precedent, for which
no law exists but which has been ac-
quiesced in by the people of this
nation for a century. The real ques-
ton raised is this: Who is to exercise
the supreme lawmaking power in this
republic, elected lawmakers respon,
sible to the people, or judges appointed
for life?

While Senator Newberry of Michi-
gan is back in his stolen seat in the
Senate, it is pointed out that the merits
of his case are still to be decided. The
decision of the United States Supreme
Court did not deal with the truth OF
falsity of the charges of corrupt
practices during the Senatorial elec.
ton campaign, but only with the con.
stitutionality of the law under which
he was tried. The Senate still remains
the sole judge of it's own membership
and Democratic Senators, as we'll as
few of the more conscientious Re.

to revive the Senatorial inquiry into
