Sim Under Money Influences.

The bond market continued yesterday
under the influence of developments OF
bullish nature In the money market. The
further decline OF time money rates and
predictions that still lower levels would
be reached soon stimulated fresh de-
mand for fixed income securities. The
evidence Of large sums OF unemployed
capital has led to assumption that a re-
newal OF bond buying on large scale
was likely unless conditions should
change abruptly. Demand for United
States war bonds was particularly heavy
and new high records were made by the
Victory issues In the foreign govern
rnent group there were substantial
gains. Several railroad issues were ac-
tive and strong. Erie bonds recovered
sharply. Industrial and traction issues
were firm and recorded fractional gains.

THE ONE GREAT PROBLEM

The one great paramount
 problem before the present Re- publican administration is that
 of unemployment. To the
 voice of the great army of un-
 employed President Harding
 and his congress continue to
 give a deaf ear. The govern
 ment GIVES hundreds of mil
 lions that the railroads may
 not fail to make full interest on
 their stock-much of it water
 ed. Big Capital is given an
 attentive ear to each of it's
 demands. Yet the great army
 of unemployed workers-fve
 million strong-is left to suffer,
 hungry, in rags and without shelter while the administrat- ion devotes it's times to Four Power Treaties and manifold legislation all of little import anee as compared with the great need of the workers.
 Why should unemployment be treated as something which cannot be prevented? Why | should millions be left to suffer | and starve in a country running over with wealth? The prob 1 lem of unemployment can be solved and it is the duty of the government to solve it. An industrial system that lets bill lions go to waste each year in the form of unproduced wealth is sick and needs treatment more than tubercular cows, cholera hogs and infected trees. Net our government spends millions combating disease in animals and plants but none to cure the ailments of the indus trial system. The Republican administration shows no inclin- ation to take the problem of un- seriously. They nope that father time will pro- vide a remedy and so he will out he will demand a better l doctor than the c. O. P. to ad- S minister that remedy. @
 The problem of unemploy- f nent can be solved and it is . going to be solveI. The party hat solves it will win as long a ,erm in office as the Republican 2 party won in 61-65. C

New York City has an ordi-

New York City has an ordl- nance prohibiting women from smoking. No doubt the great majority of men would prefer that women should refrain from the use of tobacco, but a law that attempts to discriminate against one group of American citizens is undoubtedly uncOn- stitutional. Smoking among women is perhaps mainly fad at present, but it will surely be- come a fixed habit if persistedin for any considerable length of time. There is no denying that women have as much right to smoke as men have, but we hope the great majority of women will not exercise that right. Someway the me ctaI picture of q mother putting at "coffin-na T." while rocking baby to sleep does not appeal to us.

The Four Power Treaty has been ratified. The Republi. can administration has broken it's pledge to keep out of foreign entanglements. America is not now a member of a Repub- lie of Nations as it would have been by adopting the League of Nations, but is now one of a council of four that proposes to rule the world as it sees fit. Will the "ootside Nations" take kindly to this? Will the American voters O. K. it? The next election will give the answer to the American people. The next few years may gi-e the answer of the "outside world" to the challenge of the Big Four.

Big Savings For The Thrifty Housewife.

The Thrifty Housewife.
 Few homes indeed do not feel the need of economy. The
 necessity of making every pen ny count touches the purse of every housewife. It is doubt full if there is a single article employed as a food or in the preparation of food that de- mands more buying wisdom than Baking Fowler. Upon it's quality depends the success and economy of the bakings themselves.
 Calumet Baking Powder en- ables the housewife to make three worth while savings. She saves when she buys it-it is moderate in price. She saves when she uses it-she uses only half as much as is of most other powders. She saves materials it is used with-it never permits bake day failure. Any woman can use Calumet with absolute cer- tainty of best results-delicious tasty bakings that are pure and
