uLLIONs IN HOME BUILDING.

1t was fitting that the members OF
the Pennsylvania Real Estate Aso-
citation should have eelected the city
OF homes as their meeting place. and
IL was a happy coincidence that they
should have come here at time when
the city was in the midst of it's great
est building boom Mayor Moore, in
his greeting, was In a position to tell
the delegates that already this year
about sS5. 900. 900 had been invested in
home and other building. as compared
with t2S. 100000 for the whole OF
1921. This great expenditure has a
far reaching effect, because it not
only furnishes needed homes for the
people. but increases the wealth of the
municipality and aids in creating
prosperity all along the line.
Philadelphia now lays claim to 400
600 individual homes and justlfies the
boast that it Is the leading homo city
In the world. The building Of these
houses means the opening OF many
new streets. the digging of additional
sewers. calls for the installation OF
electric lights and requires more
transportation facilities. In spite OF
the wonderful progress that is being
made along these lines. we still re-
quire thousands Of new hcmes tc
meet the needs of our people. Wher
we add to this the large public i'm
provements which are under way anC
contemplated. II is easy to understand
that the prestige and Importance cI

SAFETY WEEK AND
SAFETY MIND

Safety Week is understood to be the
beginning of a campaign for the
greatest possible security of life and
limb in this city. 1t is not n seven
day affair. TO pass with all its lessons,
its warnings and its special precau-
tions next Saturday. The ultimate
purpose of Safety Week is to create
the Safety Mind and to give it a fair
start toward permanency.
Safety Week is chief among the
stated periods devoted during the year
TO particular phases OF saving effort
This because if the Safety Mind be
once well established, fire prevention,
the sanitary cleaning up of the city
and other movements for the public
welfare will follow.
A little item of news furnished by an
inspector for the b. r. T. subway IL
lustrates the need Of training the pub
lie mind. Smoking is forbidden in the
subway, for obviously good reasons.
Yet in a single day in the seventeen
stations from Whitehall Street to
greensboro Plaza $4,000 burnt matches
and partly smoked cigars and cigar
cites are thrown away. So great is
the thoughtless disregard of a health
ordinance and of the peril of cast
ing live fire among daily accumula-
tions of cast-off newspapers.

THE TURK TANNING DOWN.

Confronted by a frowning British
lying At anchor In the
quiet waters adjacent to the place of
conference, the bloodthirsty Turk
abandoned his lust for . period and
resorted to discrimination. Ho con-
sented TO an armistice in his war
against Greece and suspension of
his fiendish murder OF helpless refu-
gees long enough to hold a confer
ence with Greece over the terms Of
war settlement. So for awhile there
may be no more murder and pillage by
the frenzied soldiers of the Turkish
Nationalist army.
But this does not mean the Turk
has abandoned his original intentions.
His hope is TO drive the Allied nations
further and further apart, while he
holds Greece at bay and strengthens
his intimate relations with Germany
and the Russian Bolshevists and with
the dissatisfied intriguing leaders of
Bulgaria. And this with a view 10 a
united campaign for murder and pill
lage, designed 10 place Europe under
the ruIe Of n ruthless combination OF
peoples outside the pale of Christian
influences, and bent only upon estab'
fishing the rule Of might.
The Turk in an attitude OF humble
submission is just as dangerous as TIT
Turk raging in savage war, possibl,
more so. There is peril to Europe a
long as he holds any foothold on Eu
ropean territory.

they go through a process of financial
rehabilitation and mako some defi-
mite moves towards placing themselves
In q position to meet their obligations.
This statement, according to the
New York Times Washington cor
respondent, appears to be encourag-
ing to the apparent disposition Of
Continental governments to bring
about an indefinite postponement Of
a refunding Of their American war
debts. with, perhaps, the hope of ulti-
mate agreement of the United States
to cancel its allied indebtedness. But
lies In what seems to be the fact, that
II contemplates a policy on the part OF
this government by which an embargo
will be placed on further American
loans to certain European Powers.
That there should bc no more loans
by this government directly to any Of
our former allies had already been de-
termined. Loans from private Ameri-
can financial interests are also likely
to be tabooed. The political situation
in Europe has assumed such n phase
that, in the opinion OF some Of those
having great influence In the councils
of the Harding administration, 1t
would be the part of American and in
ternational folly to permit such con-
ditions to continue il 1t is within the
power Of the United States govern
ment to prevent them through cut
ting of the American source of A.
nancial supply.
While the wisdom Of such a policy
remains to be proved, 1t is certainly
time something was done TO restrain
the distracted governments of Europe
in their quarrels and endeavor &c
bring them face to face with tho rea
problems of peace. Our government
might do great deal more In thi:
direction than by merely refraining
from advancing any more financia
assistance. We have done moro thar
our share in that respect.

habilitation. AS an active end lead

so WE ALL HOPE.

Announcement was made at the
White House, Tuesday. that President
Harding hopes the government will
be able TO 90 diminish expenditures
as to obviate tho necessity Of any
new taxes.
This much the President merely
hopes" for. He is not at nll certain.
Yet his party is in complete control
Of the Federal administration, includ-
ing both branches OF the Congress.
What record. The Republican
party has been In full control of Con-
gress. the money and tax
imposing branch OF the Federal gov
ernment. for more than three years.
The terribly expensive World War has
been ended for nearly four years.
During all this time there has been
no occasion for imposing war taxation
upon tho people. Yet war taxation
continues as mercilessly as though
war was still going on and eating up
millions of dollars of tax money every
day.
Evidently, the President has no hope
Of tax reduction. His only hope is
there may be no occasion for impos-
ing additional taxes in order to meet
the extravagances and the costly in
ef,iciencics OF the national admins
tration.
And the people are asked to indorse
by their votes at the coming elections
this partisan inefilciency which car
offer no prospect of tax reduction
and merely hopes" there will be nc
occasion to further impose upon tn,

PRICES TOO HIGH.

While the cost of living hos under
period Of 1920, yet many prices are
still too high. The decline has been
very irregular. Many things do not
cost much more than they did before
the war. Others are still nearly
double or moce than that.
The producer OF such high cost
articles may be able to show that he rs
still paying double the pre-war wages.
Transportation rates are high, and the
railroads claim they are still paying
wages nearly double those existing be-
fore the war. The dement's of high
wages are often illusory. az they may
raise the price of goods SO high that
tho public cannot buy them.
The business community ought "a
give more attention TO this matter OF
prices and make a serious effort "a
get them back where they belong. In
so far as they have only been raised
enough TO offset higher payrolls. the
advance is necessary and cannot be
helped. But in the trades whore COM
binations raise their price list un-
reasonably and maintain them by con-
certed action. a condition exists that
is a national menace.
Public sentiment feels that the gov.
ernment should take action against
combinations that raise prices un-
reasonably, and that severe penaltie.
should be imposed for such a grasp.
ing spirit. But so far the attempts e
stop such practices by legal proceed
ings have not been specially success
full.
The business interests ought TO ex
ercise their utmost influence to in
duce producers and others to sell a
close margins or profit. Small profit
make quick sales and promote uni
versal prosperity. Combinations tha
persist in gathering in big prices nee,

1T MAKES A DIFFERENCE.

In an endeavor TO stem the adverse
tide that now threatens 20 overwhelm
the Republican party all over the
country at the November elections,
all the members of President Hard
ing's cabinet, except one, 1t is an
nounced at Washington, will take
the stump" and engage vigorously in
campaign work. II Is said Secretary
OF War John w. Weeks will be as
signed 20 Delaware, 20 try his best TO
persuade disgusted Republicans not to
aid in bringing about the Republican
rout that now seems as certain here as
elsewhere. The only exception in this
stampede of the cabinet away from
Washington, to do partisan work in
stead of the public work for which
they draw their oficial salaries, is Sec
retary of the Treasury Mellon. Mr..
Mellon Is a business man OF proved
ability, and IN accord with the tenets
OF his profession will remain at his
post of duty.
President Harding will not Join this
coterie of official orators in a parti-
san campaign but of course he will
bestow his paternal blessing upon his
official co-workers and wish them sue
cess. It is not certain he viii even
write a letter to some friend, setting
forth his hopes for the election of a
Republican Congress. but he expresses
that hope through the action of hi:
cabinet more plainly than any num-
Der OF letters could do It.
-Four years ago, In the course OF &
letter TO a personal friend, Presiden
Wilson expressed the hope that tn,
elections then near at hand woult
result in sending to Washington /;
Congress that would strengthen hi
hands in the great work of solving tn

ginning to loom largely, in view o
