A justice of the peace at Evanston,
ILL.,, says that ''girls know best what
to wear, and nobody else, not even
their parents, should interfere. Their
conscience should be. their only guide.
1t is our humble opinion that the girls
won't wear out their conscience in
determining the "area" which their
clothes shall cover. On the other hand,
that justice took long risk, as the
case in point was 14-year-old miss.
Evanston fathers should save consider
able money as a result CT the abbre-
waited clothes which can be expected in
consequence of his follhardly decision.

Ludd's Moneu and Credit Bill.

Senator Ladd of North Dakota, who
was elected in 1920 by the League
farmers, has introduced an important
currency reform bill. He would have
the government resume 'its sovereign
function and perform it's sovereign
d lty to issue and loan into circulation,
for value received, an adequate volume
of lawful money with which to do busi-
ness in this country and develop the
great resources in the interest of all
tie people,
We now handle over 95 per cent of
cur business tran: acSiCns with bank
credit. 1t is convenient, but the great
trouble with it is that private interests
control the rate at which it is issued,
and the supply. When it pie eased
Wall Street to initiate, we had vast
amount Of credit. Farmers were urged
to borrow and produce more. When 1t
pleased Wall Street to debate, we were
suddenly deprived of our means Of
doing business. The credit needed to
replace the credit which Wall Street
called in, was denied, except for the
little dribbes handed out by the War
Finance Corporation to big banks, re-
Gently. To get the money to pay up
the credit we had used, all of us pro-
ducers had to throw our goods on the
market for anything they would bring.
SO business went dead, and the big
creditor interests are making killing
behind the scees.
Tie League Senator would provide
source of money independent of the
private banking system. Businessmen
with good security and farmers wi tn
land or with pro 1uce pro cerly sto-ed
would be allowed to get currency direct
from the post flee branch OF the loan
bureau on terms TO- exceeding folr
per cent. Profits of the system, which
would be great, would go to relieve
general taxation.
Bankers organs imme diately cry in
Aation and papermoney at such a
proposal. Some people will take their
propaganda whole because of the
authority" back of it. But everyone
ought to be able to see that additional
money has no different effec on In
hation than does bank credit and
bonds. Didn't we initiate sugar to 80
cents a pound on bank credit during
the war? Bankers in general prefer
bank credit and bonds to curren-
cy, because they make 6 per cent or
more. Wall Street likes them because
it can, by these means, control and
bleed the entire business of the country.
If currency loans are retired from
circulation when they have done their
work in business, they initiate no more
than does the same amount of bank
credit. In those countries which bank
ers will refer to as "horrible examples" ,"
the government has failed to retire
the currency when the loans are paid,
but have used it as a substitute for
taxation. But Germany, one of the
exam pies, is better employed today
than we are with banker defation.
We cannot figure out how there can
be any general continuous prosperity
for the people without such source
of money independent Of the money
trust. And along with the new system,
farmer-labor Congressman to replace
the Wall Street bloc men we have been
sending to Washington.

A first aid to empty stomachs he

Johnny Cake appears in a role

This startling news recently
reached Near East Relief head
quarters in New York from its
agents in Transcaucasia. It was
disguised in the terse announcement
that the first shipment of American
corn ever sent to the Near East has
arrived in Armenia, where it was
received with Joy by a starving
pcprlace. .s,& n
Most of the shipment was made,
i'll the form Of corn meal, to save
space and freight charges Among
the relief personnel i1f the City of
Alexandropol, where twenty thous-
and children are housed in IAmeri-: :
can orphanages and where thous-
ands more are reported starving on
the streets, was a daughter of the
"Cld Dominion It was she, with
memories Of a chubby childhood,
who introduced Johnny to her
young charges.
As a result of that one shipment
of corn meal the relief director for
the entire Transcaucasian district,
informed relief officials at New
York Headquarters that several
hundred ragged, hunger-shrunken
tots, none over FIVE, were admitted
to orphanages in Alexandropol and
Erivan, where lack of sufficient

Supreme Court Declares
Southern Pacific Owner
ship of Central Pacific
Railway Unlawful.

Washington, May 20. - The
government won today in the SUI
preme court in its suit to have the
Southern Pacific company's own
ership of the Central Pacific rail
way declared unlawful.
The court in deciding the cases
the last of the great trust disso-
luton case brought to the SUI
preme court-reversed the de-
cision of the federal court in Utah
which had held against the gov
ernment.
The decision of the supreme
court, Justice Day stated, means
that the Southern Pacific would
require to divert itself of all stock
ownership in the Central Pacific
lines or other control it has held
since 1885 by lease and 1899 by
purchase.
Justice Day delivered the opin-
ion of the court relating in detail
the history of the construction of
the Cetnral and Southern Pacific
railroads and the methods by
which the latter obtained control
Of the former, holding that the
Sherman antitrust act was effec-
tive in disclosing any combination
which by stockholders' pleas OF
other control constituted a mo-
nopoly of trust which congress
prohibited by the Sherman act
The decree of the court covers de-
tails of the separation which must
be followed and which will be
necessary to protect the various
parties to the case.
Neither Justice McReynolds nor
Brandeis participated in the case.
Justice McKenna delivered a dis
senting opinion.

One hundred seventy-five per-
sons attended the knights of
Columbus banquet held last night
at the Marion hotel in honor of
the class of 26 candidates who

Lonergan, supreme director of the
order who spoke at some length on
American citizenship.
After emphasizing the need for
developing good citizens who
would take an interest in their

at makes no difference what IA
man s creed is, whether he be
Protestant, Jew or Catholic, or his
race be black or white, he has a
right under the constitution of the
United States to worship as he
chooses-and it is unfortunate
that the religious question should
have entered into our political
life."
Upon the subject of "Educa-
tion" Rev. Lawrence ]. Roche,
dwelt largely upon the necessity
of supporting the public schools
hnd emphasized the fact that there
was no antagonism to public insti-
tutions.
''All should contribute equally,
and do contribute equally, for the
maintenance of public schools, :"
said Rev. Lawrence, "but should
be granted the privilege of sending
their children to other institutions
if they so desire.
Rev. j. r. Buck of Salem, also
made a short patriotic speech and
was followed by Frank Dlavey who
spoke briefly on the necessity of
religious tolerance. Humor was
injected into the event by P. b.
Keaney of Salem, who told some
of his characteristic Irish stories
Other speakers on the program
were ]. r. Peare, state deputy, and
Rev. l.. j. Derouin.
Several musical selections were
offered by a chorus of girl stu
dents from Sacred Heart ACADEMY,
and by Viola Finney who was en-
cored a number of times for vocal
numbers.
The banquet room was beauti-
fully decorated in flowers, Thomas
Brown, district deputy acted as
toastmaster of the evening.

by those present of the manner in
which the banquet was served by
