Victories

CUNT them. One, two, three,
four! Beveridge in Indiana; /;
~ Brookhart in Iowa; Pinchot
in Pennsylvania. And now Lynn
j. Frazier, of North Dakota, is
fourth in the growing roll call of
Progressives.
The defeat of Senator McCumber
is quite as significant as that of the
other men who have been humbled
by the victors mentioned above.
Former Governor Lynn j. Fra
zier's victory must be construed
as another proof of the rise of the
Progressive tide all over the coun-
try.
With that victory goes an Incl
dental rebuke to Senator McCum-
Der for his vote in favor of the
seating of Newberry and his strenu-
Gus advocacy of the Four-Power
Pact.
Senator McCumber fairly WED
with Britons in his effort to in
veigle the United States into the
League of Nations. He was the only
Republican member of the Foreign
Relations Committee who voted to
ratify the Versailles Treaty with
out reservations.
Personal as the rebuke of this
defeat is to Senator McCumber, it
should be shared by all Americans
who are trying to forget the
significance of the enormous vote
I of 1920 for Harding and Republican
policies and promises.
Indeed, the Administration itself
appears to have forgotten the mean
ing Of that mandate from the peo.
pie of the United States. There
fore it is experiencing almost con.
tinuous defeat in the primaries Of
1922.
We are heartened by these de
feats of standpatters and reaction
aries to believe that the near future
of our nation will be in the hands
of loyal and progressive Americans.

The Oceans Depth

TIME most interesting, useful in
ventions are often the most
i simple. How would you sug-
gest measuring the depths of the
ocean? You know there are places
so deep that it is difficult, almost
impossible, to get the depth accu-
rately.
Now, according to a recent an
nouncement, it is quite simple. And
when you are told how it is done,
you say as in other important
things, Anybody could have
done it,
The thing is done with sound.
When you send sound downward
through the water, it goes to the
bottom of the ocean and then re-
bounds, like an echo. You know
how fast sound travels through
water, you time the sound and
know the distance.
And a ship can measure the
ocean depth as it travels, without
stopping two or three hours to drop
wire and lead.

The Mote and

NENATOR MYERS of Montana
remarked that if the massacre
~ in Herrin of nonunion miners
goes unpunished, it will be greater
crime than the massacre itself,
as it will tend to destroy all respect
for law. 1T is anarchy pure and
simple; defiance of the Federal and
State governments. of the Federal
and State constitutions, of all con-
stituted law and authority"
True enough, but we have not no
ticed that Senator Myers is espe-
cially indignant when the operators
and their guards act violently and
lawlessly. He, like many other
men, believes in the right of vio-
lence for the protection of his capi-
talistic interests and in the strict
enforcement of the law against
their enemies.

Horse Sense;
Civil Service
BY BILL PRICE.

THE "horse sense" of appli-
cants for civil service positions
j is to be tested in future ex-
aminations by the Civil Service
Commission, we are told, and the
ratings of eligibles established on
the basis of both educational
equipment and sound, practical,
common sense.
Experts in psychology are re-
ported to be working for the COM
mission to devise plans by which
the "horse sense" of applicants for
positions under Uncle Sam will be
sounded simultaneously with educa-
tional tests.
The new scheme ought to bring
to the service of the Government
a large percentage of valuable
workers. Examinations for many
years past have put an excessive
premium on high school or college
educations and given virtually no
ratings to sterling qualities of char
ter, plain sense, the ability to do
things and do them well, industry
and sticktoitiveness.
There are thousands of successful
men and women in the country
masters of business and finance,
leaders in every line of industry,
great statesmen-who could not
pass ordinary civil service examina-
tions for 5000 clerkships.
When the examinations can be
made to bring out the really useful
characteristics and accomplishments
of applicants for appointments, in
addition to their educational quail
fications, Uncle Sans workshops
will begin to resemble those of sue
cessful business establishments.

Motion Picture Salaries
NENATOR MEYERS of Montana

NENATOR MEYERS of Montana
objects to some moving-p
- ture actors in Hollywood,
offering this remarkable comment :
"They were once glad to work for
ten or twenty dollars a week, but
now receive thousands. And these
are some of the characters from
whom the young people of today
are deriving large part of their
education.
What difference do the former
earnings of motion-picture actors
make! Senator Meyers probably
once made a good deal less than
TEN dollars a week, yet now he is
helping to educate the people.
Abraham Lincoln once made less
than THREE dollars a week, yet he
was good educator.

Whether the number of them

the only "brazen effrontery" in

At any rate, without bandying

the men who responded to their

entitled to that country's care in
