MATIeNTvG TEF PRESIDENT.

The meanest and pettiest view that the human
mind can take Of President Harding's appointment Of
Senator Kenyon of Iowa to a place on tho bench Of the
United States court is that which is taken by a New
York Democratic paper whose partianship is frequently
of a virulent type. That paper says
President Harding raided the farm bloc yester-
day. abducted Senator Kenyon and placed him securely
and safely on the bench Of the United States circuit
court where he can offer no further obstruction to
the return to normally. AS tribute to the presidents
political sagacity in getting rid Of the senator from
Iowa, the senate confirmed the nomination Immediately
in open executive session, and that's that as MI.
Harding said when he signed the peace resolution.
IN other words. the president IS accused of Turing
gRr. Kenyon out Of the senate into the federal judiciary
for the reason that in the senate Mr. Kenyons abs
leadership Of an anti-organization faction has become
embarrassing to big business.
But if such ignoble and patriotic motives In
spired the president 10 to offer a judgaship to Mr.
Kenyon, what is to be-said of the motives inspiring Mr..
Kenyon to accept it, The paper from which we have
quoted lauds the senator highly, intimating that as a
leader of the farm bloc he is doing the country a valu-
able service. Now one cannot help asking whether
Mr.. Kenyon. who is shrewd as well as upright and
patriotic would walk into such a trap as that which
scr Democratic contemporary pictures the president as
laying for him.
The fact is that it IS Just as important to have
xble. progressive. incorruptibla men on the federal
sneprh as in the senate.
The Lake County times. [volume] (Hammond, Ind.) 1906-1933, 1922-03-06

perhaps any other bank in America. For that reason
these facts are significant:
The highest total of Liberty bonds held by the
bank for its depositors was s1O.55s,O 900. The holdings
on December 1, 1921, were 1O.074.o0O
On January /, 1921, the society had 294,526 de-
positors. On December 1, 1921, it had 283, 694.
About As, 600 persons own the s1O,O74 900 OF the
Liberty bonds held by the bank to the credit of its de-
posters. The bank, as a work of service, clips the
coupons, credits the amount to the depositors, and looks
after the details Of bookkeeping entafled.
WHAT Is true of Philadelphia is, or should be, true
OF all America.
What has been said many times before may be re-
peated now.
HOLD to your Liberty bonds.
There il nothing better, nothing safe in the form OF
a security in all the world.

HELPING FARMER AGAIN

Senator Ladd. Of North Dakota. represents an
agricultural constituency. He has always be a friend
CT the farmer and because of that he became well
enough known to be sent TO the United States senate
He was a professor in the agricultural college of North
Dakota and took his job seriously. When the farmers
We're dissatisfied because of the grading methods used
by the grain buyers. Professor Ladd, erected a little
mill on the college campus and proved that the buyers
were wrong and taught. the farmers how the grain
ought to be graded. The people Of North Dakota
believed such q man likely to help them more il they
put him into a bigger office, and so Professor Ladd is
in the senate.
In his eagerness TO justify the good opinion of
the people who elected him. he has introduced a bill
which he thinks Will help the farmers out Of theis
period Of hard times. He proposes that the government
shall nix minimum prices for corn, wheat, cotton and
sheep, and shall insure the growers against loss by
buying up their surplus under certain conditions.
Losses are unpleasant in business and the farmers
Of North Dakota undoubtedly will be very grateful to
Senator Ladd if he succeeds in insuring them against
ever having losses again in their business. But the
method which Mr.. Laid proposes needs some explana-
tion to insure for it the united support of all citizens,
Just what the government would do with the surplus
farm products does not appear.

RAINBOW CHASING.

Representative Rouse, of Kentucky. chairman of
the democratic national congressional committee. is out
with an assertion that the democrats should make gains
in every state north, east and west next fall. As there
are % states without a democratic representative. aud,
considering the tidal proportions Of republican wave
OF 1920, this might seem q safe prediction without
meaning very much, and particularly without altering
republican control of the national legislature.
The most interesting part Of Chairman Rouse's
talk is his theory for his conclusions. 1t is not that
his party has any definite program or leadership to Of
fer the country. 1t is simply his idea that the people
are dissatisfied with the present administration and
therefore disposed to Jump out of the frying pan into
the fire" an appraisal hardly complimentary To the in
telligence Of his fellow citizens.
A few weeks ago it was being said the Newberry
case would be the great issue in the campaign. Now
it is being said it will be our foreign policy on thu
league or conference, participation or isolation, lines.
1t is ten months to the election. There is no man liv-
ing, who can guess what may be uppermost in the
minds of the American voters then. The world situa-
ton is shifting every week. February is a poor month
to begin rainbow chasing.
