Japan's New Premier, Takahashi.

This country has more than the
usual interest in the new Japanese
Premier, Baron KoREKIYo TAXA
HASH, who succeeds TAKAsHI HABA
as the head of the Toxic Govern.
ment. TAKAHAsHI was for two years
student of finance at an American
institution. He has paid frequent
visits to the United States in the
interest Of Japanese affairs, the most
notable of which were those in 1904
and 1906 in connection with financial
problems growing out of the Russo
Japanese war. His comment on
President ROOSEVELT after the din
ner in his honor at the White House
is still remembered, HE struck me
as man of great force and remem-
ber of wishing all through the dinner
that Japan had few Roosevelts."
Baron TAKAHAsHI has been for
many years closely connected with
the financial and economic life Of
Japan, first as an employee and later
90 wv ca lOl VI thC AJaAh Va 0dpoAs
He entered Premier HARA's Cabinet
as Minister Of Finance and continued
to hold that post until his present
elevation to the Premiership. Imme-
diately following HAEA's assassina-
tion TAKAHAsHI was not seriously
mentioned as a likely candidate for
the head Of the Government. There
was a very evident desire to place in
this Office some representative Of the
old aristocracy, and at least two
members of the Genro received offers
of the post.
YAMAGATA refused to accept the
Premiership, giving as reason his
age. 1t is rather doubtful if he
would have been acceptable to the
younger generation of Japanese poll
ticians. Besides, it was a question
if with his avowed militaristic lean
ings his selection would have been
advisable under the present condi-
tion. His associate, Marquis SAIoNJI,
one of the most powerful OF the
Elder Statesmen, would perhaps have
been more acceptable to, the Japa-
nese people. He did not share the
extreme militaristic views Of his
aged colleague and he was consid-
cred the most liberal of the body
actually behind the Japanese throne.
He declined, however, to take UP the
Premiership, declaring that the
heavy responsibilities were too much
for man Of his advanced age.
This left the field practically open
to Baron TAKAHAsHI. His selection
was undoubtedly victory for the lib
eral element; and it is evidently
concession by the Japanese militar-
lists to popular wishes. The new Pre-
mier is not so much representative
of the common people as was his
predecessor. He belongs to wealthy
japanese family, but he has been
often opposed to the court clique In
its attempts at aristocratic rule. One
Of his theories was that Japan could
make more advance in her Far East
policies by cultivating the friendship
of China than by trying to dominate
her. He was a trusted friend and
adviser of Premier HARA and there
is every reason to believe that the
policy of the latter will guide the
Japanese delegation at the confer
ence at Washington and so far as
possible be followed in the affairs Of
the nation during the Premiership
of Baron TAKAHAsHI.

Manless Jobs and Jobless Men.

If conditions in Nebraska are sim
liar to those in contiguous agricul-
tural States, then in large part Of
the middle West unemployment is
to a great extent myth. For in
Nebraska there is next to no invOl-
untary unemployment. 1t is case
there Of manless jobs rather than Of
jobless men. 1t is FRANK A. KEN
NEDY of Lincoln who says so. He
ought to know. 1t is his business to
know, for he is the State Secretary
of Labor.
Yet a little more than month ago
Federal Government bulletin placed
the number of Nebraska's unem.
ployed at 5000. Assuming that this
estimate was accurate at the time,
what has wrought the change for the
better? Beet sugar is part of the
answer. Beet sugar factories give
employment to $500 men. They
began running about the middle of
September. Night and day, Sundays
included, they will be in operation
for more than three months to como,
say until about February Is.
Then there is the corn husking
Nebraska had prodigious corn crop
this year and the husking is now in
full swing. For another month it
will give work to thousands at fair
wages and with board and lodging
thrown in. The farmers have been
pleading for this kind Of help and a
good deal OF the pleading has been in
vain. The unemployed will not come.
"They would rather hang around the
cities" said Secretary KENNEDY, "and
talk about hard times and the rights
of the unemployed than to get out
into the country where they will have
chance to work and where they will
get the best meals they ever had in
their lives"
But such as they do not enter into
the unemployment problem. They
have nothing to do with employment.
Plain loafing is their forte. Men of
this Sort" remarks Mr.. KENNEDY,
"are entitled to scant consideration"
II by scant consideration he means
no consideration at all he will find
public opinion solidly with him.
But sugar making and corn husk.
ing alone do not account for the abb
sorption Of all except Nebraska's vol
UNFAIRLY unemployed. The railroads
have been taking on more men. The
building industries have been looking
up. Practically all the skilled men
in the State are at work.
Nebraska and the States adjacent
thereto are not the whole country by
a good deal. Conditions there and
in the highly industrialized States
are widely at variance. But, hap
PLY, the betterment in employment
conditions is not sporadic. 1t is not
localized. 1t is widespread. In New
England, in New York, all the way
across the country from coast to
coast reports are more and more op-
timistic. The totals Of those invol-
UNFAIRLY idle are steadily shrinking.
A notable reaction for the better fol-
lowed the dissipation Of the railroad
strike cloud. Orders for goods can
celled under that threat have been
renewed. The firm attitude of the
Government and the spirited posture
Of the public in the face Of the crisis
have had a marked effect in stabiliz.
ing confidence. Eliminating those
who are idle under strike orders and
those who are out Of work because of
strike non-production, the task of.un-
employment conferences Is appreci.
ably lighter than it was few weeks
ago when those conferences began
their investigations.

THURSDAY. JULY ID, 1921.

The modification of the COM
pnlsory school attendance law.
involving the repeal of the tru-
ant officer section; at the session
of the General Assembly last win
<ter is a sample of the sort of pro-
gl'essiSe Legislation that may be
depended upon to keep South
Carolina near the foot in the lit
eracy column of American States.
There was no reason for the
change the General Assembly
msde in the law, and if the
friends and proponents of the
change were not also the friends
and proponents Of ignorance an
injustice is being done them by
many people. &..
After all, is there any reason
why newspapers should be pub
lished on the Sabbath If there
is, it is about time for those in
possession of the reason to take
the public into their confidence.
The Methodist central Sabbath
committee, representing the con
ferences of II Southern States, is
certain no such reason exists and
has sent it's chairman to Wash
ngton to urge upon Congress tn,
Wisdom of enacting socalle,.
8blue law" which would prohibi.
the printing of newspapers in
America on the first day Of the
week. Not only is there much to
be said against a great deal of
the reading matter and many OF
the advertisements appearing in
the Sunday editions of many, per
haps most, of the daily papers,
but there also is involved in the
publication of Sunday newspa-
pers the important fact that they
upset and destroy a considerable
part Of the orderly life of those
Immediately engaged in their
production. In America, at least,
there is an old-fashioned notion
that every man is entitled to one
days rest in the week and that
that day should be the Sabbath.
To force men to work on Sunday
newspapers as late as 3 o'clock
on Sunday morning, as is done
IN. practically every Office from
which Sunday edition is issued,
is to deprive them of the pleas
ure and profit they would get
from being able. to take part in
many things open to other men.
1t is almost out of the question,
for instance, for the Sunday
newspaper worker we have in
mind to attend church services
on the Sabbath morning. He is
too tired, too much in need of
physical rest, to get up after be-
ing in bed only three or four
hours to 60. to church. Even if
he forces himself to do that
which he would find pleasure in
doing We're he physically able,
his mind is in no condition to
profit from the services. The av.
erage man in reading his Sunday
newspaper never gives thought
to the fact that it represents
many hours &of hard, axacting
night work of other men and that
IT is set before him at cost i'm
sacrifices he should not ask his
feilow-man to make. The Sun.
day newspapers have done much
to destroy the Christian Sabbath
o. our forefathers. Hundreds of
thousands Of well-meaning. level.
headed, pious men now think i,
