DISARMAMENT

'eople Actually Pay to Hear
Noted Advocate of Mill
itary Reductions


TOXIC, April Large audiences
greet Yukio 0zaki everywhere as the
celebrated parliamentarian tours the
country to awaken public support for
his project of an international agree
ment in naval and military curtail
ments.
The Osaka Mainichi notes that the
big crowds at the Ozaki meetings in
Kobe, Osaka and Kyoto show how
earnest the public is to learn some
thing about the big question at is
sue. Fees are charged for admission
to the lectures, and the Mainichi is of
the opinion that the large attendance
despite the entrance charge is an sim
portant sign Of the time and indicates
which way the wind is blowing"
The money raised is to be devoted
to educational objects among stud
ents.
Interviewed after one of the meet
ings by a reporter of the Japanese
Chronicle, Mr.. Ozaki said great
many of his student auditors wanted
OF know how he proposed to make eff
fective his idea for armament re-
striction. The answer he gave was
that America, England and Japan
should enter into plan for the re-
duction of armaments and he hoped
that America would make the first
proposal within the next few months.
In the event the United States fails
TO make this proposal, then Mr. Ozaki
believed that Japan should take the
initiative.
"When the agreement is made" he
added, sit viii be kept. Besides, ac-
cording to tn eighth article of the
eLague of Nations covenant, all ma
tions have promised a reduction Of
armaments, and this must be carried
out through the League"
"What reason did the members of
the house of representatives give for
turning down your proposal for re
duction Of armaments?" he was ask
ed.
"They did not give any reason
they said the time was not ripe. Some
army men stood up and made speech
es-which / could see no meaning
in. Afterwards some of the members
came to me and said that their ideas
were the same as mine, but still they
voted against me. Their sentiment
of hating me seems to be stronger
than their sentiment of love of coun-
try"
The interviewer mentioned that 1t
appeared that a large proportion of
the taxes were expended for military
purposes.
"Wou,d you like me to give you the
exact figures?" Mr.. Ozaki asked.
sour direct taxes total $50 million
yen, and the amount for the present
fiscal year is 760 million yen or 10
million more than our direct taxes
amount to-" Direct taxes are not, of
course, he explained, the government
only means of revenue-there are ad-
ditions in the way of the railway, post
office and teleggraphs, tobacco and
salt monopolies. With reference to
his recent expulsion from his party,
Mr.. Ozaki stated that this had been
done because he had been naughty
from party point of view," or as the
French say, she was an enfant ter
rib.e."

Buy At Home

Under the above caption the Atlanta Constitu-
ion of yesterday has the following to say editori-
lily:
While visiting at the home of her daughter
recently a New York lady impressed
with hat the younger woman had just bought
from local milliner that she not only procured
hat for herself at the same place, but stocked
herself with complete fall and winter outfit of
wearing apparel to take back with her when
she returns to the metropolis
She found upon inspection Of the wares of
fered here that in point of style and workman
ship the merchandise carried by Atlanta mer-
chants is equal to the best that is procurable in
New York, and whatever differences there are
in prices are in favor of the buyer in this city
1t was economy for her to come from New
York to buy her millinery and other wearing
apparel.
TOO many of people are imbued with
the mistaken idea that they must buy clothing
in New York
Atlanta money should be put back, as far
as practicable into Atlanta commerce, thus to
promote the general welfare of the community
from which the money is earned.
1.-THE constructive, the patriotic, thing for
all those who buy to do is to patronize home
industry and home commercial enterprise
1t pays in the long rum"
With the exception of the actual incident citeC
every word of the above could be said in regard tc
Marietta and in fact in most respects to every city
of this county.
Most people laboring under the mistaken
idea that they must do their principal shopping in
Atlanta, elsewhere The same is true of the peo-
pie living in the smaller towns of the county in re-
gard to the larger cities.
An actual comparison of home prices with those
in larger cities will almost always reveal the fact
that the same quality of goods can be procured as
cheap or cheaper at home
1t is true that the large city stores have the adj
vantage OF carrying larger stocks and of sometimes
getting their material at lower cost owing to the
tact that larger quantities bought. But, then,
they labor under the disadvantage when compared
to the smaller city stores of having an overhead ex
pense so much higher that the retail price mist
often times be higher than that of the smaller civ
The other day noticed shirts in Cobb cuntv
store selling for IS cents apiece that we had never
been able to get for less than twice that amount IN
a larger city.

Increased Salaries for Teachers

t is seldom that more timely act, or one more
highly calculated to further the general progress and
welfare of the county whole, has been under
taken by any group set of Cobb county officials
than that of the county board of education at its last
session when it moved to increase the salaries OF all
yrades of teachers in the public rural schools.
There is nothing more essential in the life OF
public undertakings than that of the education OF
the boys and girls. Children in the hands of poorly
paid teachers means, as a rule children in the hands
of incompetent teachers which in turn chill
dren turned loose upon society incompetent to prop
erly fight the battle of life The loss of this to
city or county is ncomparably more than any
amount of increased expenditures in the shape of
higher salaries to teachers.
1t is a notorious fact that teachers in the rural
schools of Georgia have long been among the poor
however regretfuy, that the rural teachers of Cobb
have certainly not been among even the highest paid
of Georgia rural teachers. The result has been one
of the fundamental in keeping illiteracy in
the county and state among the highest of any civ
ilized section of the globe.
Most rural teachers in both the county and state
have always been paid lower salary, rule, than
an ordinary ditch digger And yet it requires only
)
back to efficiently WELD pick while the poor
est assistant teacher must put in years Of study and
preparation to equip him or her in the poorest
sort of fashion. And we say this not in spirit of
denouncing such high wages for ditch digging but
an spirit of deploring the miserable wages of the
rural teachers. The common ditch digger is, per-
haps, worth what he is paid and maybe even more.
How much more, them is the wielder of the minds
and characters Of the youth of our land worth!
boy or girl with less than grammar school
education can attend business school for six
months and then salary of around $500
week, while more energetic and ambitious boy or
girl may prepare eleven fifteen years more
for teaching and then have to work all his or her
life at teaching for salary that scarcely equals the
above amount
1t is not to be wondered at that the best talented
boys and girls seldom go in for teaching. Their
tastes may incline them to teaching as also may
their sense of duty to their fellow beings But this is
perhaps unfortunately, an age when ones success
rs determined largely by ones earning capacity So
these best and most ambitious minds must as a rule,
go into the business world or professional world
other than that of teaching for the sake of making
better living.
The result is that the children of the land are
oftentmes left either in incompetent hands, or in
