CONGRESS- APPROVES
ARMY NAVY TOTALS

WASHINGTON, June 2S.-The
senate and the house have finally
agreed on the disputed army and
navy appropriation bills and in so
doing have defined the postwar mill
itary policy of America.
This policy is to be one Of main
tanning the smallest military estab-
'lishments consistent with national
safety, with sympathy toward univer-
sal limitation of ornaments on land
and sea. In fact, the man-power of
the army and Of the navy as dictated
by congress, is to be less than both
the secretary of war and secretary
of the navy insisted would enable
this country to keep herself ade-
quately prepared.
It is to be presumed that the Sec
retaries speak for their chief, the
president. But congress, controlling
the purse-strings, has the final word.
And congress has ruled that the
army will be near it's pre-war size.
The senate ended the deadlock on
the appropriation bill by accepting
Wednesday the house amendments
after having held out first, for an
gradual reduction in strength. The
house amendment will mean that the
army must be cut from it's present
size by October 1. This will mean
the arbitrary discharge of $4,000 men.
Senator Wadsworth, chairman of
the military affairs committee, OPP
posed the drastic cut until the last,
and in finally yielding SO that the
| bill could become law by the begin
| ming of the fiscal year, July l, said
| that the amendment constitutes tho
| cruelest treatment ever handed out
| to the U. S. army.
Senator'S had favored reducing the
army by the expiration of enlist
p, mcnts.
Senator Wadsworth said that the
| apparent saving through the house
method of reduction could not be
realized, and that eventually it would
| not amount to more than fourth OF
| this amount. This, he said, was be-
cause it will be necessary 90 resume
| recruiting to keep the army up to
| 100000. Action of the senate in ar-
| proving the bill made it ready for
| the signature of President Harding.
The navy, it was agreed WedneS-
day in conference between delega-
! tons of the two chambers, will have
a strength of 100000 during the en-
suing year. The senate supported by
| Secretary Of the Navy DENLY, wanted
! 900, whereas the house had voted
| for 100000.
The conferences agreed on the ap-
| propriations bill, except the Borah
| disarmament rider. The house is to
be given an opportunity to decide
whether it will approve the Borah
proposal or will insist on adoption
of the Porter resolution. The latter,
presented by the lower chamber
foreign affairs committee, extends
| a proposal conference on disarma-
| ment to include all powers instead
of the United States, Great Britain
and Japan also, and includes a dis
cussion of land as we'll as kea dis
| armament.

EDUCATION IN CHARACTER

Chicago public school authorities
ANNOUNCE that particular attention
will be given this year to moral train
ing in all the schools. "The highest
Office that education can fill" says
Superintendent MORRISON, lis to build
up traits Of character in our pupils,
even though every other study goes by
the board" This is not a new doc
trine, for it is recognized that all ed
ucation requires a moral basis; but
it is we'll from time to time to reaf-
firm this cardinal principle and to plan
it's better realization in practice:
When the famous northwest terri
tory ordinance was passed by congress
in 1887 it contained a declaration that
religion, morality and knowledge be-
ing necessary to good government and
the happiness of mankind, schools and
means of educations Shall forever
be encouraged" Thus in this country
from the earliest days morality and
public education have been linked to-
gether. AS the plan has worked out,
example has been relied upon rather
than precept. According to President
Butler of Columbia university, formal
instruction in manners and morals
is not often found, but the discipline
of the school offers the best possible
training in the habits of truthfulness
honesty, obedience, regularity, pune
tuality and conformity to order"
These are the great school virtues"
it is thought by many, however, that
good results may be had from a more
definite planning for che moral educa-
ton of the young people in the schools,
the teacher having in her hands a
most unusual opportunity for that in
teraction of theory and practice which
all recognize as the most powerful in
s1rument for building character. The
present plans of the school board
doubtless are based on this idea. Chi

CARE OF INDICENTS

A recent issue Of The News contain
ed an editorial from Toronto, Cana
da, paper about the care of INDECENT
parents and Judge James H.. Hill has
brought the attention of this paper to
the fact that there has been a Wis
consin law on the subject for some
years. Only a few weeks ago there
was q case in county court in which
a son had refused to assist in the
care of his mother on the ground that
he had already done much for her.
Judge Hill decided that he must as
sist in giving her support, although
she did not reside at his home.
The Wisconsin law applies to the
support of father, mother, wife or
children, a broader law than the one
operating in Canada. Amy poor per
son who is blind, lame, old impotent,
or decrepit shall be assisted by either
the father, mother, husband, wife or
children, the only exception being
that Of children of school age They
are not expected assist in the support
Of others. If one, in duty bound, fails
to give support the poor commission
er may have him brought before the
county judge.
AS in Canada, so in Wisconsin, much
is left to the discretion of the Judge.
Seldom are two cases alike. Property
varies and the condition Of INDECENT
persons is seldom the same.
The care of a parent, husband, wife
or children who are not able to earn
a livelihood is often a perpIexing
problem. Often it is not the fault of
the son or daughter that father or
mother will not remain beneath the
same roof. Children become men and
women and this parents often fail
to realize. When no adjustment can
be made in the family the only thing
to do is to leave the matter to strang-
ers-bring it into court, if necesp
sary. While it is not possible for a
parent to reside with son or daugh-
ter it is possible to provide means
Of support, where there is property
or earning power. This applies even
to a wife caring for a husband.
Deeply it is to be regretted that a
son or daughter must be brought
against the snubbing post at times but
where affection or a sense Of duty
has been dulled there is apparently
no other way to cope with such
eases. 1t is source Of much comfort
for the INDECENT, at times, that Wis
consin has a law which operates in
such satisfactory manner.
