lawmakers are justified in keeping
US ignorant, even though they dis
obey our known wishes in 50 doing.
However, this is practice which
IS liable to develop INTO habit;
and as it usually turns out, we find
public officials before long deciding
oH-hand what the public should
and should not be allowed to know
as if they had perfect right to do
this IN every case and all the time
just what liberty, or what dis
cretion, should we allow TO our
public servants in the matter Of
keeping us in the dark as to pub
lie affairs? This is an intricate
question, but one which we could
perhaps answer better just now
than at some time when we have
no actual situation in mind upon
which to base a judgment.

The Problems Of

a Talk with our Wives, Mothers.
ard Sisters

There are millions Of homes IN
this great country and practically
all Of them are presided over by
woman. Millions Of men are pro-
viding for these homes and the
millions Of children which are being
reared there.
When we consider the multitudes
OF bright, ambitious boys and girls
eagerly entering into the work
which swalts them and the army Of
children preparing to take their
places IN the arena Of life we mar
vel at the magnitude OF the work
assigned to woman and her success
IN us accomplishment in having
cared for, disciplined and conducted
this multitude safely, through the
viclssitudes and dangers of infancy
and early childhood
The care Of children is no light
task, and She responsibility weighs
heavily with the mothers. Their
days OF toll and nights Of vigil are
unceaslng.
Added to the care of the children,
in a great majority Of cases, es-
pecially of farmers wives, is the
care OF the home and all which the
term implies, an unceasing round

strength to the breaking point.
The failure of a mother to prop
erly care for and train her children
is not always her fault, in fact we
believe it is more often owing to
sheer inability on her part to per-
form the varied and heavy tasks
which fall to her lot.
AS these tasks must be performed
and there seems to be no one else
to do them, this is unavoidable
But did you ever stop to think
of the unnecessary steps taken in
their performance? A study of the
best method Of doing thing often
leads to surprising results IN re-

A Mystery in the Air

A mystery that is puzzling many
thoughtful people just now relates
to the motive which led large
number of those members of the
United States Congress- who are
known to be strong advocates of
International peace to change their
views suddenly and to vote for the
immense naval appropriation shich
was recently approved by an over
whelming vote.
1t is true that certain men who
have stood SO steadfastly for dis
armament IN the past that they
have come to be looked upon as
genuine pacfsts have without
warning turned their backs u on
the cause OF peace and become sup
porters OF the most warlike pro-
gram that our nation has ever a.
dopted save in lime Of. actual war.
Neither have they given any rea-
son for their mysterious change of
heart.
What appears to be the solution
OF the question was given few
days ago by member Of the Ser
tate who SAID that a certain report
OF the most alarming kind, but
which seemed to be absolutely au-
thentic, had recently been brought
TO the attention of Congress and
that it was because this report had
been taken 50 seriously by that
body that it had decided in favor
OF the unprecedented appropriation
for armament. He was unwilling
TO give further information regard
ing the matter but left his hearers
to draw their own conclusions as to
the danger that seems to threaten
our nation.
No one can believe that it arises
from England, particularly because
Premier Lloyd George has approved
Ian actual reduction in the British
naval program since the determi-
nation to increase that of our own
country was made known. 1t is
uncomfortable that any other coun-
try Of Europe can be considering
an attack upon the United States,
In TACT, about the only conclusion
that can be drawn is that Japan is
getting ready to strike a blow fol
j the control OF the Pacific ocean
with the idea Of closing the trade
doors Of Asia to US permanently.

What Our Eyes Should See


There is one phase of the Far
Eastern ques ion which seems dull
and unintcresting, but which is not
so at all since it affects all of US in
3 very important way. 1t is that
of foreign trade. 1t is safe to say
that if Congress finally decides that
we should undertake a war with
Japan, it will be chiefly to protect
our right to buy and sell IN the
markets of Asia. This should be
noted we'll because the women OF
America would not be willing to
see a war for any such cause.
Rather, If they ever give their con-
sent to a war with Japan, II Will be
for reasons that are not CONNER
cial but humanitarian.
Why is it that not only our own
congress but every other important
lawmaking body in the world looks
upon foreign trade as something
that is so extremely valuable that
both bloc and treasure should be
given freely in exchange for it?
1t is a question which the women
of the land would do wei to look
into carefully before taking so firm
a stand upon 1t.
This is the truth about foreign
trade. 1t, more than any other
factor, determines our prosperity.
The evidence of this lies on every
hand though it is not noticed. The
wealthlest nation Of Europe is
England, whose foreign tlade ex-
ceeds that Of any other country.
Prior to the war, Germany became
so wealthy and powerful as to be-
come a menace to the British EN-
pire. 1t was by foreign trade.
When both gave up trading for
fighting, and the markets of the
world fell to us FIVE or six years
ago, we entered upon such an era
of prosperity as we had never seen
before. And with the war over
and demoralized foreign exchange
situation which prevents Other ma.
tions from buying from US, we fine
a great industrial depression falling
upon us which has reached into
every village and rural community
of the land.
Prosperity mems material com
forts and high standards of living
The lack of it, means uDemploy-
ment, destilution and suffering
The difference between these is
what foreign trade means to US.
The view Of our lawmakers is that
while we perhaps should not fight
to gain it, we should fight rather
than TO be deprived of it unjustIy
by those whose motives are purely
selfish. Are they right or wrong?

Whether Peace or Var

Would we, Or should we, fight
rather than be driven out of the
Pacific? If our surmise as to the
meaning of the recent action is cor
rect, Congress seems to think that
we should, and is preparing to do
SO, Whether our women generally
will agree with the lawmakers is
open to some doubt. They have
already committed themselves def
nItely to the prevention of future
wars. This, however, is merely a
general policy Whether they
mean what they have been SAYING
will be shown when they come to
deal with particular cases, such as
the one which seems to he develop
ing In our relations with the Far
East.
If Japan should actually secure
control of the Pacific, she would
take from us the Philippine and
the Hawaiian Islands; she would

Our Disobediant Servants

In view q be fact that the peo-
pie OF America are demanding in
the most insistent manner Just now
that everything pertaining to pub
lie affairs be made public henee-
forth, and that nothing whatever
shall be kept from the people by
their chosen servants the present
situation is most interesting.
Let us suppose that Congress is
actually in possession Of certain in
formation, which seems to portend
war, but which it is Withholding
from the people whom it is supp
posed to serve. Probably not
many would approve such a course
OF action. But let US suppose fur
ther that Congress actually fears
to give such information to the
public lest spirit of bitterness and
lil-will should be aroused that
would make war inevitable. This
condition could easily exist. In
deed, it probably does exist at the
present time. Then just what
should Congress do? Is it war
ranted in keeping secret from us
this information which would only
arouse and inhame us against some
other nation, even though we have
forbidden it to withhold knowledge
from us in this manner?
The question has two sides at
least, and perhaps more. If strife
and ill-feeling are averted by keep
ng us in ignorance, perhaps our

EMF FORCE THE
FEDERAL LAW

Ernest P. Walker, of the U. S.
Biological Survey, returned to the
valley yesterday after an absence of
several months, with instructions
from the department bureau to en-
force rigidly the provisions Of the
Federal Migratory bird act and the
sections which particularly apply to
the regulating the hours that birds
may be shot and the bag limit. He
announced that, no shooting will be
PRINTED between sunset and an hour
before sunris.
With respect to the damage by
ducks to crops, Mr.. Walker stated
that he has been advised by the bu-
reau, that in the past, in othr sec
tions of the country, spcial permits
have been granted for hunting ducks
where they were alleged to have
damaged crops. In manv instances,
said Walker, this privilege has been
abused and permits secured solely for
the purpose of shooting the birds and
it was found that the sportsmen
have done more damage to the crops
than the birds.
Instead of hunting, the bureau ad-
vocates the use of the automatic
acetylene flash gun, which have been
found to be very effective in the rice
fields in the northern part of the state
and inexpensive to operate. In aG-
diton to the flash gun the bureau
recommended the black powder shells,
without shot. Mr.. Walker added
that a lighted lamp placed in the
field has also proved effective in pro-
tecting the crops.
1t is urged that farmers needing as
sistance get in touch with either Mr..
Walker or E. L. Garthwaite, Imperial
county farm adviser.
