Dear X. c. B.-f you were the father Of two
perfect kiddies-one little boy of five and the
other a little girl of three-and their mother
had deserted them over a year ago, and you
had tried your best to make her see the error
of her ways and return and give to them tho
love and care they need so badly-and II you
had failed, would you let her get away with it!
Or would you seek to have her picture pub

whom she is living will know what kind Of
woman she is?
Or would you grin and bear it?
Your advice will be religiously followed.

The March
of EUents
THE railroads announced re-

raCeS on IdTm prOOucIS, WHICH,
amounts to about $5O,OOO,OO0 an
nually.
The railroads announced, at the
same time, that they hope to make
further reductions in freight rates
next year if the public will stand by
them in forcing another 10 per
cent reduction of railroad workers
wages.
This is not as sweetly unselfish as
it sounds.
The railroad mems wages we're
cut 1919 per cent last July. That
saved the railroads $4OO,OOO,OOO an
nually.
Now the railroads present the
public with a $5O,OOO,OOO reduc-
ton in rates and keep the remain
ing $35O,OOO,OOO taken from the
wage-earners.
We fail to see any reason to grow
enthusiastic over such generosity.
Since the railroads waited about
five months - during which they
pocketed $166,OOO,OOO of the wages
taken from the workers-to return
$5O,0O0,O00 to the public in the way
of reduced rates, we naturally as
sumo that their promise to pass on
the 10 per cent cut in wages they
now demand. will result in the same
way as far as the public is concerned.
The 10 per cent cut will give the
railroad owners about $780, 0O, 900
ore, and at their present rate OF
generosity this will mean an annual
reduction of about $4O,OOO,0OO. In
other words, if the public will stand
by and help the railroads reduce
wages to the amount of 1872, OOO.-
600 a year the roads will reduce
freight rates $9O,OOO,OOO.
Which is to say that out of each
eight dollars the railroads take from
the workers with the public's help
they will give one dollar to the pub
lie and distribute seven among them
selves.
1t is reported from Paris that Pre-
mier BRAND recently sent an ennis
sary to Russia to spy out the land.
The emissary returned with the now
common opinion that, though the
communist regime was retreating
economically, there was no prospect
of its political defeat.
Craftsmanship consists of the abil-
ity to perceive facts and to make
the best Of them. Aristide BRAND
has given many proofs that he pos
sesses this ability. Hence we are not
surprised at the prediction that he
is about ready to call off the foolish
efforts of the militarists Of France
to jockey new invasions of Russia
and open negotiations for future
dealings with Lenin.
Indeed, it is said that, unofficially,
a number of overtures have been
made, and that M. BRAND is only
awaiting the psychological moment
to bring them into public view.
Should the present conference
reach working agreement on China
and the Far East, one containing
reasonable prospects of future fair
dealing, then clearly the next world
problem will center in Russia.
Russia, it is true, has fewer people
than China or India, but they are so
placed on the map that neither Eu,
rope nor Asia can long ignore them.
1t will be found, eventually, if not
now, that China cannot be managed
or very much helped from without,
but must generate internally the

seen were FOR city licenses and he
wanted 90 know II the big bill was for
that publicity.
There was a hot argument in pro-
Kfesf within a minute and il was
rnlng strong when Councilman Abb
rlhnms restored peace. He told Mr..
NcNabb the lists ne had seen publish
ed we're for county taxes and that
she city had nothing 20 do with
them The bill under fire was the
composite OF several transactions. Mr..
NtNAbh was finally pacified and order
was restored MIR. AicNabb disap-
