VX0 White Christ to the vikings Of
the North, 50 runs the legend
of the Christmas tree, the Lord sent
his three messengers, Faith, Hope, and
Love, to help light the first tree. Seek
ing one that should be high as hope,
wide as love, and that bore the sign
iof the cross on every bough, they chose
the balsam fir. which best of all the
trees in the forest met the require
ments. Perhaps that is a good reason
why there clings about the Christmas
tree in my old home that which has
preserved it from being swept along in
the food Of senseless luxury that has
swamped so many things in our money
mad day. At least so it was then.
Every time I see tree studded with
electric lights, garlands of tinsel gold
festooning every branch, and hung
with the hundred costly knickknacks
the storekeepers invent year by year:
ito make trade" until the tree itself
disappears entirely under its burden,
/ have feeling that a fraud has been
practiced on the kindly spirit of Yule.
wax candles are the only real thing
for Christmas tree, candles Of wax,
that mingle-their perfume with that of
the burning fir, not the by-product Of:
some coal-oil or. other abomination.
What if the boughs do catch fire?
They can be watched, and too many
candles are tawdry, anyhow. Also,
red apples, oranges and old-fashioned
cornhcopias made Of colored paper,
and made at home, look hundred
times better and filter in the green;
and so do drums and toy trumpets and
wald-horns, and rocking horse that
need not have cost forty dollars.

MERRY CHRISTMAS

Nnf HETHER we shout it
/, UVU or sing it, we must be
sure to mean it; for if
we really mean it when we
say, Merry Christmas, every
body" we will do all in our
power to make Christmas day
of unsullied JOY for all those
within reach of our influence.
Christ came into the world to
bring light which brings joy. He
came to bring deliverance to
men; to solve their difficult
problems to inspire a higher
hope in the spirit Of men. That
is the cause of the deepest JOY
to mankind. Yes, Christmas is
a joyful day as we'll as sacred
day.
It is a day for doing good
deeds. as we'll as thinking good
thoughts. 1t is not day for
receiving gifts only. There are
so many opportunities for doing
good. that we may receive JOY a
hundredfold, with the expendi-
ture of just little time and
thought. There are many who
have little; many who do not
know the meaning of this day as
you know it; many whose spirits
are crushed by disaster. Re
member them Boys World.

Washing Windows.

If windows are washed when the
sun is shining on them they dry before
there is time to polish them, and look
streaky. Always dust windows before
washing them. Add a little ammonia
to the water to make the glass shine
and polish well.

Gov. Cornwell said one of the greatest
factors he had observed in industrial
unrest was the growing tendency to look
to the state--to the government, especl-
ally the Federal Govcrnment-to right
every wrong, to issue orders and DEGREES
that will reverse the law of nature. He
continued:
CLOSELY allied TO the tendency to go
to the Government for legislation and
executive orders to ameliorate every
evil condition and TO make possible easy
profits, short hours and big wages. Is
the tendency to regard work. especially
what we know as manual labor. as
drudgery--to hate and despite II. There

aversion to work which really consti-
tutes an alarming condition the world
over. II persisted In and cultivated 1t

struction OF civilization itself
mo longer is there love of work for
works sake. No longer do we hear OF
the dignity of labor
There is a tendency 10 run TO and
rely on the Government. particularly the
Federal Government, for everything. Are
we TO go on drifting toward the harbor
Of state Socialism with Communism and
anarchy just beyond? II we are TO

"The American public. II Il under

all kinds. for the average citizen under
stands that we are oil interdependent.
But the public cannot be expected TO
understand unless 1t has the informa-
tion necessary 70 correct understanding.
The public understood the situation rel
ative to the threatened railroad strike
and the public has its mind made up
on the subject. That is the reason there
was no strike.
Another thing. and this Is all Inn

Speaks at Annual Dinner
of Commerce Chamber
Of New York State.
CALLS FOR SALES TAX
Darwin p. Kingsley Offers
Plan for Federation of
Peaceful Nations.
REDS STILL A MENACE
John j. Cornwell, Ex-Governor
of West Virginia, Warns of
State Patcrnalism.

Healing drafts in place of old,
discredited nostrums for q world that
is sick. a standard to which the wise
and the honest can repair a construc-
tive programme that will mend the
earth's infirmities-all of these it Is
Americas duty to provide. Americas
craftsmanship will be equal to the de-
mand. American character stand the
test and American institutions prove
adequate.
In brief. the first of the foregoing
was the keynote Of a speech setting
forth Americas imperative duty toward
the world in the present crisis as
voiced by Darwin p Kingsley at the
1o3d annual dinner of the Chamber Of
Commerce of the State OF New York
at the Waldorf last night. Mr.. Kings
ley is president of the Chamber.
The second embodies the prophecy
of former Senator Albert J. Beveridge
that America will perform her duty
successfully. The former Senator from
Indiana. in a speech that was punctu-
ated repeatedly by enthusiastic ap-
plause. reviewed the plight Of business
generally, identified the symptoms Of
alarm, diagnosed the case and pre-
scrlbed the remedy.
Senator Beveridge found the most
alarming symptom in the nations case
20 be the growth of an invisible en-
pire," closed corporation Of men who
have made themselves masters OF
labor unions which, he declared, had
become as evil and dangerous an as
sailant of ordered liberty as "the de-
throned autocracy of wealth"

The members of the Chamber OF Com
,nerce. said Mr.. Kingsley in his annual
address. regard a reduction of armament
as vital; they welcome the efforts now
going forward toward that end. But. he
warned, even so sweeping and startling
proposals as were made by Secretary
Hughes will be at best palliative, a
smoke screen behind which secret prep
arations for war in q more horrible form
may go merriiy on"
80 long as arnlaments are bracketed
with patriotism" Mr.. Kingsley con-
tinued, I'VE shall have armaments. In
my opinion, the only arrangement which
will insure permanent peace is a great,
a controlling federation Of all like
minded peoples.
Federation neans the creation. by
the direct act of the individual citizen
not by the act of sovereign States as
such-of controlling power whose rela-
tions to all the federated peoples and
States shall bc like that OF our Federal
Government TO the people Of the forty
eight States of this Union and to the
States themselves. This does not mean
leagues or entanglng alliances. The
states of this Union are not entangled
with each other, nor are they allied.
"In 1921 the real question Is. as we
believe. not armaments alone. but
whether or not ordered liberty and civil
ization shall continue"

"Wages Must Drop"

immediate action is vital. Most rates
must come down. and, especially and
farthest. those on basic necessities like
fuel and foodstuffs: and, therefore, since
wages and rates are inseparable, wages
must also come down.
Our whole economic system has been
inflated to the bursting point and gen.
eral defation was and is indispensable.
The farmers have Debated. business men
have Debated. most other labor has de-
Hated or is Debating: and railroad labor
must undergo that common, universal
and necessary process.
THE Adamson law must be repealed.
The war time labor classifications. regu-
lations and so-called national agree
ments' must be abolished. That curious
contriver OF makeshifts, the so-called
Labor Board, that tells the railway
owners how much they must spend, must
be connected with that other organ of
our bureaucracy. the Interstate Com
merce Commission which tells the rail-
way owners how much they may receive.
''rhe contract made by the Govern
nent with the railway owners when the
lines were taken by the Administration
must be carried out, the Indebtedness of
the roads to the Government for i'm
provements funded and that of the Gov
ernment to the roads paid-all as pro-
vided in the agreement. Thus railway
insolvency will be averted. hundreds of
millions expended on equipment and bet
terments, scores of thousands of now
idle worlxingmen employed and all In
dustry vitalized.
'In short the railway bill passed by
the House months ago and held up N
the Senate must be speedily enacted into
law without mutilation or fundamental
change.
NO one need fear revival of railway
autocracy--a new industrial factor, the
automobile. will moderate railway earn
ings. Auto trucks and motor buses al
ready are making heavy reductions in
short haul freight and passenger rail-
way revenue.
IF business is to revive, investing
capital must be freed as far as pos
sible. The excess profits tax must be
repealed--it ought to have been abol-
ished when the pretext for it dsap-
peared.
I'm the end we must put a tax on
expenditures-a non-cumulative tax on
sales-which all. alike and equally, must
pay In exact proportion to purchases
That would be genuine and an honest
tax on wealth.
"A sales tax is open, above board and
In plain light Of day. IT is fixed, cer-
tain and cannot be multiplied at the
expense of the consumer by under
ground manipulation"
The New York herald., 1921-11-18

which brought on the Civil war--indeed
the Adamson law issue went to the very
existence of government itself.
When orga nizations by threat to
strangle the nation. can dictate laws for
their own advantage at the expense of
all the people, then regular government
by all for the good OF all is annihilated.
and. in place OF II Is substituted the er-
ratio despotism of particular groups for
their special purposes to the injury OF
the country as a whole.
AT all cost, the Adamson law issue
should have been fought out TO the
finish the moment il appeared. Sooner
or later II must be settled and every
days delay will make matters worse
in the end. Differences over mere ques-
lions of policy can be compromised;
usually they ought to be compromised.
But differences over elemental princi-
pies cannot be compromised.
"The ultimatum 10 the Government
by labor despots was obeyed and the
Adamson law enacted in the exact form
ordered and at the exact time ordered.
1t was the most shameful and hu-
initiating event in American history.
From 1t have come many of the in
dustrial plaques with which. since then.
the nation has been and is afflicted.
The next blow at the nations trans
portation system was dAalt by the Gov
ernment itself. We went to war shame
