the sway of Mr. Wilson's Burleson publca- tion making so blasphemous a claim could have been excluded from the mails Now the penalty is merely that of being denounced in the New York Times. The Democratic party, especially its santed leader, Mr. Wilson, never gave thought to politics. even in the midst of war; it never manifested greed for power; it never, through its leader, professcd a.supcrior "ideal- ism" or resortpd to pharasaical pretense of superiority of motive. It never was cXtrava- gant; it never was inefficient; it never broke a pledge nor beed profession; at least, if it ever did no one ever heard of 1t through the editorial columns of the New York Times. It is only the wicked, hypocritical, dishonest in competent, selfish Republican party that can justly be accused of such high crimes and mis- Gcmeanors.
 The disappointment of the interests in this country which set out, in partnership with ccr- tain alien and international influences to de liver this country over, bound hand and foot to European control and exploitation, must have been much deeper because of the failure of their undertaking, through the opposition of the Republican party, than has been generally understood. Nothing else could explain the violence of then present hatred of Republicans and Republican'sm. To have earned such ami mostly from such a quarter is one of the achievements of which the Republicans have a right to he prord.

DENIES REIMBURSEMENT
FOR BRIDES PASSAGE
Yanks Paying Transportation Of
European Mates Must Bear
Expense Themselves.

Soldiers who paid for the trans
portation of European brides to this
country must stand the expense them
selves, according to a ruling by Con-
troller General McCarl. The govern
ment, he held. will not reimburse
soldiers for such outlay.
The ruling was handed down in the
case of Christopher Piazza. formerly
of the Army ambulance service, who
asked for reimbursement from the
government for passage paid by him
for the transportation to this country
of. his. wife, whom he married in 1919
while in service in Italy. Provisions
Of the law, under which 123 European
wives of soldiers were brought to
this country at the expense of the
government prior to June 5. 1920, Mr.
McCarl held. do not apply where a
soldier has already paid for his wife's
passage.
"Such wives were transported" he
said, because the enlisted men were
financially unable to bear the cost
thereof, and were transported on the
credit of the United States to avoid
the appearance of wholesale deser-
tions by American soldiers of their
European brides. The reimbursement
of soldier who at his own expense
transported his European bride to the
United States Is within neither the
reason nor the language of the law"

LONG STEP IN RIGHT DIRECTION

The action Of Mayor Hefner in

Primarily the meeting was intended
as a get.together movement between
the city officials and the heads Of the
various clubs. 1t was a meeting
wherein the city manager. the mayor
of the city and the hortt Of comm'S-
sioners were broL mt together on
common ground, there to talk over
the plans which might be formulated
to lead TO tue ultimate DEVELOPMENT o.
Ardmore into one Of the leading COM
munities, financial and moral, in all

large amounts of newspaper space to

announce the price declines which they
made as RAPIDLY as replacement values

SUNDAY MOVIES

II is not surprising that the SUI
preme court Of oklahoma has decid-
ed that the operation of moving pic
lures on Sunday is legal. There is
ample and weighty precedent for
such a decision The court based
its decision on the opinion that sun
day moving pictures do not come
within the provisions of statute
prohibiting servile labor on sunday
However. IT is possible that the court
would hold unconstitutional a law
specifically prohibiting motion pic
lures on Sunday, if such an issue
should be raised There is a limit
to restrictive measures. There is a
point beyond which it is not consti-
tutional to go.
There is considerable doubt as TO
whether any kind Of quiet, orderly
recreation by the people can be pro-
hibited on sunday. 1t is true that
any recreation can and should be
prohibited II it interferes directly
with the holding Of religious serv-
ices. But, as long as the SUNDAY
recreation-seekers are not actually
disturbing worship and are doine
something which is lawful on th'
other days of the week, it appears
that they are within their rights
