FRIENDSHIP AND RIGHT

Many sin is committed that
friendship is expected to justify. 1t
is not exactly what we would have
done if we had been left to ourselves
to decide, but, under the circum-
stances, we could not see what else
to do. Rather than to be disobliging,
rather than to be thought puritanical
or righteous over much we yield,
waive the obligation to conscience
and charge the debt of conscience to
the score of kind feeling. But it is
at bottom a question of allegiance
The Master asks an undivided heart,
and we have no right to betray Him
in the home of our friends. To hate
father and mother and friends, for
His sake is ethical, not emotional. 1t
is a question of loyalty. To please
them would we displease Him? If
so, we are not His followers, but

CAMPAIGN THUNDER

Republican policy in permitting re-
ports to leak out in Washington that
Senator Cummins has ready for in
| PRODUCTION in the next congress an
amendment to the Esch-Cummins act
that will compel railroads to coml
bine, is in two respects very similar
to President Harding's fulsome praise
of the congress that just adjourned.
Specific details of the proposed legis-
lation are as absent as were those of
congressional accomplishments in Mt.
Harding's eulogy, and the same de-
sire to win votes that actuated the
latter also lies behind the former.
Any attack on railroads., unfortu-
nately, has a certain appeal to an ir-
responsible element in this country.
Republican leaders doubtless believe,
too, that talk of any step to make
the railroads of the United States
more efficient will have weight with
farmers. Difficulties that have been
experienced in marketing farm pro-
duce will be the theme of hundreds
of perfervid campaign orators in ru-
raj districts. Each will be able to re-
fer to the proposed compulsory CON-
bination of railroads as the sure cure
for this evil.
And in the meantime what is the
exact status of the proposed legisla-
ton? The president has not includ-
ed it in that which the Republican
party pledges itself to enact. If, sub
sesuent TO the election, expedieney
makes It undesirable to bring the
matter up again, II can be buried
without the disagreeable formalities
of a coroner's inquest. Mr. Cummins
may be slightly embarrassed, but the
administration naturally cannot be
held responsible for legislation to
which ii never pledged itself.
Difficulties that farmers are expert
encing in transporting their crops to
market are real enough. but. tradi-
tionailly shrewd. they viii not be mis-
lead as to causes. Experience has
taught them to distrust cure-alls.
They know the effects of the strike
as we'll as any group of men in the
United States. They are familiar,
too. with clauses in the constitution
protecting privates property. and
they have not forgotten the country's
experiment with combined railroads
during the world war. They will be
exceedingly skeptical, and Mr.. Cum
Minis proposed amendment has an
excellent chance TO prove boomer

"sourHERN INCOMPETENCE"

The Democratic party is dominated
by southern Democrats; southern
Democrats are not in touch with big
business principles and therefore the
whole Democratic party, as represent
ed in Washington, is Incompetent, as
serts Senator Watson. of Indiana, in
speech delivered in New Albany.
The senator overlooked something.
If he had kept in touch with the big
business men of Louisville he might
have borrowed an expression which
was coined by leading Republican
He could have said that Republicans
are trained consecutive thinkers"
This is much better, and more polite,
than to declare everybody in the
Democratic party in Washington in
competent.
However, Democrats will generally
agree that the southern Democrats
are not in touch with big business
principles" to the same extent, or in
the same way, as some of the ma
tiOnal Republicans Southern Demo.

man in congress makes himself prom
nent regardless OF his sectional
source The list of distinguished
northern Democrats could be drawn
at great length. If it happen that
the ablest Democrat in congress is a
southerner, this does not prove that
southern Democrats made him so,
or that they combined to keep under

north.
