GOOD PUREBRED BULLS
IMPROVE HERDS QUICKLY

With purebred bulls a breeder
achieves more in the improvement of
his herd in two generations than he
can in five with grade bulls, says the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture. Department workers have thor
oughly studied the subject of build
ing up herds to better milk, butter
and beef production. Better sires may
be obtained either by individual pur-
chase or by becoming a member of
a bull association. Literature on the
latter method can be obtained by
writing to the department, and will
furnish useful reading during the
winter. Full information can also be
by consulting your county
agent or State agricultural college.

The Puritan Jaw

The sons and daughters Of New
England do we'll to send Professor
Howe, of Wellesley, about his bust
ness when he, talks of the "laziness"
of the New England jaw. AS we'll
call the pyramids lazy because THY
stand and stand and stand, let the
centuries rave as they will. That
Jaw has passed through many trials
and tribulations without a culver,
and whate YER faults it has laziness
is not one of them.
A repressed, reserved speech
seems the truer characterization of
New England utterance. The typi-
cal New Englander is chary of emo
tional display alike in the expression
of his countenance and in the tones
of his voice. The result is a quiet
and gentle drawl in respect to many
vowel sounds--the "twang" of fic-
tion and the jokesmiths is excep-
tional, not the rule-and a certain
inarticulateness Of lip action that
leaves the voice too far back in the
throat for clear, vivid speech.
The question of New England
speech raises the whole question Of
Puritanism. Does the New Eng
lander live too much within himself?
Is his self-control carried so far as
to stunt enthusiasm and natural
emotions? The answer is not to be
lightly laid down by any casual
critic. A repression and stern
ness Of life that can flower forth in
the beautiful speeches of Calvin
Coolidge have not altogether ruined
spontaneity and color and the play
of emotion upon life. In the end
the problem of Puritanisln probably
resolves itself into the old and un-
satisfactory question, golden
mean. There can be too much re-
preston, as the psycho-analysts are
daily proving. There can be no
success or beauty or anything with
out some self-control and will and
repression.
The Puritan jaw is bad thing, in
short, if it is so set as to make a
man narrow, grabbed skinfint. II
it serves only to make a strong and
well poised character, let US all cul-
tivate it. Any repression of speech
will be more than counterbalanced
by the worth of what we have to say.

ltemizing the Cost of Utopia

1t can, of course, be. contended
that the American people had but
one function in the peace confer
ence, and that was to sign blank
check. That notion has, indeed.
found important support. But the
further the events of 1919 retreat
into their proper perspective the
less general enthusiasm for this
blind attitude of alteration exists.
The late election showed a general
desire to scrutinize with the greatest
care the achievements of our peace
delegation, and Congress is only
obeying q general and highly proper
demand when it tackles the financial
expenditures of that interesting Pc
riod and asks What for?" and
"Why?"
AS a matter of fact, MIR. Wilson
should be the first to recognize the
propriety of these queries and
should welcome the opportunity to
produce an itemized analysis of the
vaguely described expenditures as
called for by Representative Gould's

Preventing Home Building

For the better part of eighteen
months the housing problem has
been before the public. Two ses-
sions of the Legislature have wres-
tied with it.
During the entire period it has
been recognized that the only solu-
tion-the only way to keep rents
down and to relieve congestion-was
to erect more houses. So far-ex-
cept so far as the Lockwood commit
tees labors have tended to reduce
prices of housing materials-noth-
ing has been done. The emergency
legislation, while serving tempo
rarily to protect tenants in possess
sion from extortion, on the whole
has discouraged tenement building.
Few were willing to invest il rents
were to be limited by law.
The single bit of constructive
legislation in the housing acts was
the provision giving the city the
right to exempt for ten years new
houses from local taxation. Though
the power has existed for six
months it has not been made use Of.
Not until yesterday did the Board of
Aldermen pass an eXempting ordi-
nance, narrowly limited in its terms.
And this ordinance, it is predicted,
the Board Of Estimate, which pos
sesses a veto, will throw out.
Why this determination to prevent
the erection of new houses? Is it
because there are interests which
are so desirous of preserving the
basis of high rents that they will not
allow competition? Suspicion is fos-
tered by the shallowness of the argu-
ments against the ordinance. 1T is
said that the city will lose taxes.
But how is the city to get taxes out
of buildings not erected? Put the
ordinance through and tax collec-
tlons Will increase, not diminish, for
the land on which the edifces stand
will endure higher assessment.
Every building and loan associa-
tion wishes the ordinance. 1t will en-
courage homecoming, and at the
end of ten years a handsome addi-
tion will be made to the assessment
roll. Yet it is announced that the
Board of Estimate, which pretends
to want to relieve the housing crisis,
is to throttle the ordinance.

Hanging Naval Officers

10 the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Mr.. Daniels says that the best
thing 70 do with naval officers who
"seek the limelight" is to give them
rope with which to hang themselves.
This statement invites intelligent
comment.
Naval officers as a class do not seeI,
the limelight, but when their duty
forces them into prominence thew usu-
ally do honor to the navy.
The only naval officers who appear
to have committed professional suicide
Ey hanging were those who vainly at
tempted to screen Mr.. Daniels for his
neglect to prepare our navy for war
between 1914 and 1917, and who have
otherwise condoned his awful policies ,
But it would appear that the frag-
ments of cordage which these devoted
Danielsites most thoughtfully left for
the use of their chief are now being so
rapidly expended by him in his daily
chatter that there is doubt whether
the supply will suffice for his personal
use during the remaining few days of
his reign. 1t is suggested, therefore

Mr.. Weeks's Opportunity
Let Him Decline the War Portfolio
in Favor Of General Wood

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: 1t is stated unofiicially that
President Harding has appointed
ex-senator Weeks, of Massachusetts,
as Secretary Of War. If so, that great
majority of Republican voters who de-
sired General Wood for President and
voted for Harding with q keen min
gled sense Of disappointment and
loyalty are going to be still more
intensely disappointed. General Wood
is the one most available and best
fitted man in this country for the posi-
tion of Secretary Of War.
Mr.. Weeks has now a golden op-
portunity to make himself a popular
idol and win a name ranking with that
of Admiral Sims, who refused the Navy
Medal because equally deserving men
were ignored by Daniels. Mr.. Weeks
can decline Harding's appointment as
Secretary of War and Withdraw in
favor Of General Leonard Wood. He
would at the same time rebuke
President-elect' Harding and be every
where acclaimed as loyal Republican
rising above party politics, and also
make doubly public the necessity for
redemption by Harding of his promise
to make strong and able Cabinet,
which inferentially would include
General Wood as Secretary of War.
All this is stated with 10 disparage-
ment of ex-senator Weeks, of whom
Massachusetts is proud and whose
Senate record is brilliant and deserv-
ng of all praise, but Weeks is not
Wood, nor is his military knowledge
or experience knee-high in comparison.
That is what people are saying wherever
one talks with either Republicans or
Dem rats.
If General Wood is ignored by the
incoming Administration in the same
outrageous manner that he has been
ignored by the outgoing Administers

will follow President Harding as
President in four years time, backed

How Germany Loves France

Colonel House, discussing in The
Philadelphia Public Ledger the
terms imposed upon Germany, la
ments the failure of France to make
a friend of Germany. During the
war and Immediately afterward." he
remarks, "the Germans had kindlier
feelings for France than for any of
their enemies" If this be so thew
dissembled their love most success
fully. The affection, like gratitude,
must have been born of an expecta
ton of favors yet to come-of a
hope OF using France against Great
Britain.
Colonel House mentions the policy
of England toward South Africa
after the Boer War as an ilIustra-
tion of the sort of response France
might have made to the German offer
OF heart and hand. The parallel
hardly runs on all fours. The an
tagonists in that conflict were OIL O

We have refused to allow the Domin-
lean Congress to meet--have set up
q regime of naked force. But such
is the indifference of Americans that
comparatively few of them realize
that the Haytian problem is one
thing and the Dominican problem
quite another.
Our Latin-American neighbors,
better informed than our peo-
pie, discriminate between the two
countries. Secretary Colby in his
recent journey to South America
found this out. He was greeted by
the press of Argentina and Uruguay
with most pointed queries as to what
possible justification existed for the
policy President Wilson has pursued
with respect to Santo Domingo. He
could make no answer, and talk of
Hayti did not quiet his questioners.
President-elect Harding has indi-
Gated that he does not confuse the
two parts of the island of Hispaniola.
He is under pledge to order with
drawal from Santo Domingo. When
the withdrawal occurs it is to be
hoped due apology will be made and
that thereby good relations with
all the countries to the south be
oromotad
