FLauntS President

The willingness of President Harding, who undoubtedly enjoys greater
confidence among the, people than Congress- to temporze and conciiate
was directly responsible for the spectacle yesterday when the House Of
Representatives dealt a death blow to the American Army by overriding
the wishes OF the White House and the War Department. The Congress
men, facing a crucial election this fall, can hardly defend their actions
on the ground Of economy for at the same time they showed their con-
tempt of restraint by uphnldfng a huge increase in the rivers and harbors
pork barrel" overturning in their mad course eve the recommendations
incorporated in the budget
The Haunting Of the Executive was not alone confined to the ruinous
attention Congress bestowed upon the Army, but it "a evident when it
passed the readjusted compensation bill IN the face OF a threatened presi-
Dental veto. In fact, the threat was received with manifest skeptcism
by the Representatives.
Congress. unfortunately, has been encouraged in this attitude by too
many executive compromises. The President failed to stand squarey be-
hind the recommendations of Secretary of War Weeks. He also failed to
back Secretary DENLY to the limit in behalf of al adequate Navy.
When provisions were put into the tax revision bill which he disap-
proved, he signed, practically under protest Against his best judgment
he agreed to the Brandegee reservation to the fourpower Pacific pact
Previously he had allowed an amendment to the German treaty giving
Congress authority oyer the appointment of the American member of the
Preparations commission, doing so against the advice of Secretary of State
Hughes and thereby inviting a muddle.
Public opinion throughout the country has reached the conclusion that
the Harding policy of dealing with Congress mus. come to an end, unless
THE President is willing to see the executive place and authority brought
into contempt and his own standing before the Nation jeopardzed.

He said that $500 to 10000 settlers

every year for homes and firewOod, and
hat miners are supplied with free tim

One of Secretary Falls contentious is
that the Forest Sevrice is holding on

COSTUME MFAVOR
According to Robert Edeson, Prominent Actor

hi cycle Of dramatic popularity is
swinging about again to the costume
play, according to Robert Edeson. This
celebrated American actor, whose latest
role has been that Of Colonel Capt in
Rex Ingram's motion picture production
of the 1.-THE Prisoner of Zenda," applies
the word dramatic both to the stage
and screen.
For the last several months he has
been In Hollywood engaged in his i'm
portant portrayal in the $1,000 900 Metro
picture Of Anthony Hopes romantic nov
ell, which, If ever a photOplay were. is
a costume play. The setting is that of
the mythical and diminutive kingdom Of
R~uritania, In central Europe, a vivid lit
tie country of scarlet-lined cloaks, of
gIfttertn9 ceremonies, Of many medals and
ribbons on the chest, Of regal, stately
gowns for the women Of the court.
The appearance of such a screen play
at this time Mr., Edeson sees in relation
to worldwide public hunger for the spec
t%acular, the sway -from-the-humdrum.
I'VE are al la bit fed up on loye
among the oak-tcp desks" he said re-
Gently between scenes at the Metro stu

the inevitable return swing of the pendu-
lum. We want back our color.
1.-The Prisoner Of Zenda,' 1 believe,
is a forerunner of a general recrudes-
cence Of romance upon the screen and
the stage as we'll. It's sheer romance 4;
not what happens, but what could hap
pen. Mr.. Ingram has chosen with an
almost uncanny insight the most propl-
tious moment for bringing out this story
in pictures"
Mr.. Edeson pointed out other examples,
"The Three Musketeers" and Mr.. Grif-
fifths orphans OF the Storm" mention
ing by way of proving that not only the
motion picture, but also the stage, was

Church Census Shows More
Than Half Million Gain
Figures Prove GrOWth of Religious Life in
the United States.

NEW YORK. March 3O.-The church
membership Of the United States showed
an increase of 761, TT in 1921. according
20 complete official figures to be printed
in the Christian Herald, April 1. This
c" sus Of the religious life Of the United
States was made by Rev. II. x. Carroll.
The gain Is an excess over that Of
667, 007 reported in 1920. The Christian
Herald will say:
Most Of the denominations share in the
increase. The Methodist group appears
TO have grown to the remarkable extent
Of nearly 300, 900. Nearly a third OF this,
however. is credited TO the Colored Metho-
dist Episcopal Church. The Presbyterian
group advances by $3.50. 1t should be
noted that the Welsh Calvinistic Church
disappears from the list Of separate
bodies this year. having been merged in
1921 with the Northern Church.

A SHOWS
CONTRAST IN !
TWO POLICIES
Forestry Row Emphasizes
Great Difference Between
Old, and New Tunes.
PROBLEM

WASHINGTON, March 30.-A clash be-
tween the hot, impatient spirit of the old
pioneer bent on quick results, and the
new, scientific expert who looks gen
.erations ahead with a cold, calculating
eye, figures in the forestry row now rag
ing between the Interior and Agriculture
Departments.
Secretary of Interior Fall is the last
of the pioneers. He grew up in the
wild and woody west and saw an en-
pire spring up on wlnd-swept prairies
in a short span of years. His fondest
hope is to see Alaska tanned In the same
swift way. He is after quick results.
At least that is what they say at the
Department of Agriculture, where Of
fficials claim that In opposing Fall they
are taking a far-sighted scientific view
with future genaEations in mind
1t is limited by Falls friends on the
other hand. that the Department of Ag-
riculture isn't so much concerned about
future generations or the public as it
is with its own jealousy over the FOFes,
try Bureau and that the real reason Ag-
riculture is fighting 10 keep the forestry
service is that 1t just can't bear to see
this bureau taken out of its hands and
given to the Interior Department.
DEPARTMENT
DENiES MOTIVE.
The Department Of Agriculture Of
purse denies any such motives and Of
fcials explain at great length. though
not for quotation at present, just why
they want to hold on to the forest sery-
ice.
For one thing they say, when you
put something valuable in the safety de-
post vault, why give both Keys to the
same mann" O.
The answer being. according to the
same official, that the Forestry Bureau
,shonld~be left alonge to keep check on
the Interior Department.
All titles to public lands. It is ex-
planned, are granted by the Department
Of Interior. The Forestry Bureau hav-
ing merely the right TO investigate and
make recommendations regarding land
claims which may or may not be ac-
cepted by the Secretary Of Interior. But

"Bessy Bell andNMary Gray,
