1t has long been a dictum of poll
teal history that Revolutions
roll backward Perhaps not. But
the forward rolling of a revolution
inevitably brings with it elements of
reaction, and these sooner or later
set their wheels revolving within
wheels.
July is a great month for freedom.
There are three notable ~anniversa-
ries, ten days apart-July A, IA and
"a. Each of them stands for a birth
Of free government.
July "a is the date of the birth of
freedom in Turkey, or of what prom
Used to be freedom. A constitutional
form of government was adopted in
Turkey, July "a, 1908. On that day
the young Turks" came to power.
Perhaps it had been better if the
old Turkey, which everybody knew
to be cruel and corrupt, had con-
tinued until the World War, and
then gone down to it's doom.
There might possibly have risen
| out of it the hope of a new Turkey.
But if the light that Is in a national
hope is darkness, how great is that
darkness!
The young Turks, so far as we
were able to discover, in the World
| War were just as cruel and just as
| corrupt as the old Turks, with the
| added disadvantage that they were
| young, and there was no one else to
look to for better things.
Perhaps revolutions never roll
Backward: perhaps it should rather
be said that revolutions always roll
backward.

@. Are the Indians actually de-
creasing in numbers?-T. H. B.
A. While the 1920 census shows
an actual decrease in the number of

century.

SPECIAL DELIVERY POSTAGE.

1t is extremely doubtful that Postmaster
General Hays has the public sized up correctly
when he suggests that the public would rather
pay IS cents than 10 cents for special delivery
letters, in order to get the better service that
would be given at the higher price.
Twenty-Five cents would be a good deal Tor
the ordinary citizen to pay for the delivery OF
a letter at any time. 1t looks especially pro-
hibitive just now, when money is lacking for
luxuries of any kind. There is a general feeling
that 10 cents extra is about enough to pay Tor
whatever special acceleration is possible In the
forwarding of a letter. At best. that accclera-
ton seldom amounts to much, in practice.
A 25-cent rate would probably result in a big
decrease in the use made of the special delivery.
Most people would revert to the regular 2-cent
postage, and for particularly urgent commune
cations would resort to the telegraph.

BY DIR. w. e. BARTON

At any rate, it should be said that
every movement of a people toward
freedom Is attended by perils Of
license and extravaganza, and also
by those of reaction.
