GOVERNMENT BY BLOC

A word is an expression of an idea, so the old grammars taught us. And the American public is being taught a new word. It appears almost daily now in any newspaper or maga- zine article on the transactions in Congress. The word is "bloc" It is brought over from the French, where it means group, faction or interest. The very fact that the word is com ing into such frequent use is indicative of a growing condition in our legislative affairs and, in the judgment of The Times, it is a condition pregnant with baneful possibilities
 Our government was founded as a protest against government by the royal "bloc." It was an avowed attempt on the part of the people to govern themselves for the best in terests of the people as a whole. Under it the men chosen to office were expected to per form as statesmen. The difference between a statesman and a politician is that q states man considers the country as whole while a politician votes only with the interests of his particular constituents in mind. As the poIi- tcians have outnumbrrcd the statesmen in Congress, government by "bIoc" has been coming to the front. And as the movement grows the word takes on new meaning until eventually it will be spelled and mean "hIock = to prevent, to stop.
 That the word should gain such currency portrays a growing situation that should be forestalled- bockcd.' What the country needs now is statcsmanship in its legislative bodies. Government by bloc means strife, factionaIism, scctionaiym and injury to the country as a whoIc May the time speedily return when the word "bock" becomes obso- lctc so far as it's use in connection with our legislative bodies is concerned.

talked much of the theory of "sclf-deter- mination.'
 What evidence is there that on vote of all the people of the Philippine Islands after a thorough, intelligent discussion of the ques- ton, there would be popular decision in favor of separation from the United States? We know what the professional polticos think We also know, or can know when the Forbes report on conditions in the islands is made public, if it ever is, just what these politicos have been doing to the islands since the hand of American authority relaxed, and, from that, what they would probably like to do if given an opportunity to do more
 The "Press Bulletin declares that the course of the United States in retaining the Philippines is as much of an affront to Japan as if Japan were to seize and occupy Lower California, "no matter what Japanese diplo- mats may say openly" The authors of this attack upon the good faith of America are perhaps sufficiently familiar with the inside workings of Japanese diplomacy to "c able to make such a statement with confidence. But what greater afront to Japan is the American flag in the Philippines than the. British and other European flags in sndry Oriental possessions? Does Japan contemplate an attack upon these governments because of their possessions in the Far East?
 The cause of Philippine independence will not be we'll served by attacks of this kind upon the American government and people or threats of rebellion or Japanese aggression in case the United States does not adopt ''scuttlc" policy in the Philippines.

MAKING PEOPLE THINK

It k related that when Theodore \, Vail had built up tEr telephone service all over the country tc point where more business was needed, he started in to advertise the tcIo- phonetic show its every day usefulness and wide sorvic" to the people. llr showed how the telephone could be usod instead of a' let tcr-instcad of telegram -in>tcad of per. sonaI call, or a trip 10 another city.
 While this campaign was under way on" of the board of directors is reported to have said to Mr. Vail: "NaiI, what's the idea of spending all the money in advertising, instead of in dividends! Advertising is all right for things people don't know about-but every body knows about the tcephonc.'
 "Yes," answered Vail, "cvcrybody knows about the telephone, But, d-n it, they don't think about it enough. If I can make them think about it oftener, they'll use it oftener. :"

PATRIOTISM AT HOME

Patriotism should begin at home; extend out from the home to the home town or com munity; thence over the country; and thence over the state and nation. The patriotism that does not include it's own nest, its own family and its own surroundings, is not much patriotism, nationally or any other way. We should all think of these things continual ", for they are vital to our best interests and welfare, and the best interests of our family, friends and neighbors. There is always argu- mcnt on both sides of any question, but the basic facts remain, just the same and we should not lose sight of those basis facts As a rule goods can be purchased in the home town as cheap as in other towns or cities; not all things, but the majority Of th" commodities which We use. Some articles may be bit higher once in a while, but it is equally true that some are often bit lower, and the whole monthly account will baIa.r' pretty well, take it up one side and down thc other.
 But even if it did cost trilc more to trade at home than to send money away to the cities still it would be cheaper in the long run to buy at home and let the money cir culatc around the town, each dollar doing hundred dollars worth of business before it finally sips away.
 If we do not build up our own nome town there will not be any home town, and all our investments in it, for homes or anything else, will fall flat and We all lose out. Any way you want to look at this trading away from home business, if figures out loss m the long run for everybody who engages in it as a regular thing.
 This, you know, applies to the home printer as well as to the home merchant.

THE PHILIPPINES AND SELF DETER
 MINATION'"

A So-caIIcd "Philippinc Commission of In drpcndcncc, representing certain political elements in the Philippine Islands, and, con ceivably, other portions of the globe, issues a "Press Bullctin.' In the last issue of the publication the threat is made that unless the United States throws the Philippines over board to become the prey of internal anarchy and external aggression, it will be "a source of weakness in time of war if not actually provocative of war" On the subject of re- sistancr to the authority of the United States in the Philippines, one Emile Agunado could give some good advice to the poIiticos rospon siblc for the publication of material of this kind in tn" name of Philippine "lndcpemd- encc" The "BuIlctin" continucs
 ''Thc United States wrote and championcd the principle of scf-detcmnation in the late war She sent her sons to fight and die fer that prncipIc Yet the whole world is wit ness to the fact that she is not practiciu% snlf determination in the Philippines"
 No more prepostcrOus piece of bunk was Rvcr uttered than that the United States "scnt her sons to fight and die for the prin- ciple of self-dctermination. This government has no authority and no disposition to send its sons to fight and die for any cause but that of defense of the American flag against those who are attacking if.
