CHAINS OF STRAW

In Kipling's fascinating Jungle Book
we are told the story of Kalla Nag, the
sagacous old elephant in the service of
the Indian government. AS the story goes,
Big Thoami the elephants driver would
nightly tether old Kala Nag with iron
leg chains to keep him from escaping.
At times when the iron chains were miss
ing Big Thoami would fashion chains of
straw, and with this frail substitute, hob
BILE the big beast.
There is a great deal of humor in the
thought of this most powerful of all
animals being held captive by few
strands of straw, and there is an element
of pathos in it too, to think of this great
beast looking longingly toward his native
hills, when his freedom could be accom-
plished easily if he were not shackled by
a wrong idea, held captive by chains Of
straw.
I cannot help but think that when Kip
ling wrote this story he had in mind the
thousands of people in this world who
did not achieve their greatest measure of
success, because in their own minds, they
are shackled by imaginary chains of
straw. This one lacks confidence in him
self; others imagine that their health
will not permit the hard, earnest endeavor
that is necessary to achieve success !;
some hold back for lack of encour-
agement, while still others surrender
will find that the things you have feared
most are the things that have never hap
pened. So why not today set your face
resolutely toward the goal of success and
refuse to wear the imaginary chains of
fear and doubt.

SEEK JUSTICE IN COURT.

Many well-intentioned people believe
that the government ought to take over
the railroads and the coal mines and
operate them. They argue that these are
natural monopolies furnishing necessities
and that it is dangerous to have them
entrusted to private management Gov
eminent service, they say, is free from
strike Interruptions. The employees of the
post office never strike; the soldiers and
the boys of the navy never strike.
Thus those who hold that the only So
luton of the strike problem lies in the
government miss the point that the OPP
portunity is crying for the government
to solve the problem by the institution of
an inG strial relations court. In their be-
lief in government ownership of the rail-
roads and the mines, they lean upon the
same authority for justice between en-
ployer and employee that they would il
they demanded federal court to settle
industrial disputes.

TODAY'S BEST THOUGIHr

Oh why is not the existence / have enjoyed
known to all the world! Every one would wish to
procure for himself a similar lot; peace would
reign upon the earth; man would no longer think
of injurng his fellows, and the wicked would no
longer be found, for none would have an interest in
being wicked But what did enjoy when I was
alone? Myself: the entire universe all that is all
that be; all that is beautiful in the world of
sense; all that is imaginable in the world of intel
lect. gathered around me all that could delight
my heart; my desires the limits of my pleas
utes. Never have the vouptuous known such en-
ioyments; and have derived hundred times more
happiness from my chimeras than they from their
realities. JACQUES ROUSSEAU.

WELCOME THE TOURIST.

In Minnesota movement has been
started which should set an example for
other states and will be welcomed by
tourists everywhere. 1t has its origin in
the pernicious zeal with which visiting
tourists are harassed by officials and
others who go to all sorts Of extremes to
compel them to conform to petty and
oftentimes annoying local traffic rules.
For the present this movement is merely
a defensive organization. Committees of
residents have been organized to defend
the luckless stranger who is charged with
the violation of some purely local traffic
regulation, of the existence OF which he
was unaware. The surest way to bring re-
proach on the city or state is to penallze
a visitor for his innocent departure from
a local custom.
While tourists through Albuquerque
seldom suffer from this cause, we receive
complaints from time to time that visitors
are Disseminated against by local sta
tons in the purchase of accessories and
the cost of repairs. Specific instances
have been called to our attention and it
is safe to assume that these reports are
carried broadcast.
The Mnnesotans have inaugurated a
movement that should be followed by
every forward looking city, that of max
ing the visitor welcome and according
him such treatment as will encourage him
to return This will not only be doing
something for Albuquerque but will be
a benefit to the whole state

Current news developments, in
dicating higher car loadings, in

possibility of separate agreements
in the railroad strike situation. all
were favorable but they appeared
to have little direct influence on
the market. Mexican oil shares
were reactionary on announcement
that the Standard Oil of New

or most of their losses before the
