Senator McCun1bers Poison

- ENATOR M'CUMBER lays his defeat
for denomination in the North Dakota
Republican primary to poison cam
pafgn" which has been waged against him
for the last two years."
But is the matter really so personal as
that? Was it not against his associations
and party's record rather than against him
self that the dscrediting vote was polled?
The poison that acted most potently was
that generated within the Republican system
itself; so that it was not so much from the
virulence of his foes as from auto-intoxica-
ton that the genial Senator suffered.
A political Titan would sink under the
crushing load of the present repute of the
Republican majority at Washington. Broken
promises, evaded issues, neglecte. duties, in
efficiency, Indifference, demoralization-for
all these must the apologists give account
when they go before the people, whether in
their own primaries or in general elections
The burden is more than mortal strength
can sustain, if there is any sort of vigorous
opposition.
1t was on Misrepresentation and false pre-
tense that the Republican party rode into
power two years ago-on capitalizng blind
prejudice, on trucking to the weakest and
the worst in the emotions of the time, on
promising all things to all men, with never
a prospect of fulfillment. That was the
beginning of the retribution of which Sena-
tor McCumber's defeat is but an illustrative
incident. Having assumed great RESPONSE
bility without either the ideas OF the ideals
appropriate thereto, any party would be fore
doomed to failure and to the rebuke of a dis
illusioned electorate.
Such is the political poison from which
the distinguished son of North Dakota has
come to grief. Not the enemies of the Re-
publican party, but it's own flesh and blood
have written the record which finds it's only
proper sequel in defeat.

The Inter-A1Eed Debts

o able and discerning man Of business
as Alexander Revel1, of Chicago, says
that if he had his way he would can
eel the larger portion of the inter-allied
debts. This, he believes, "would permit
sane solution of the German reparatlons
problem and immediate revival of world
trade" It would spare France the necessity
of transferring to creditors her indempities
from Germany, and thus would give her
adequate means for reconstruction. Ger
tainly it would relieve tension all the way
around and would quicken worldwide pros
perity.
Mr.. Revell is of the opinion that in Amer
lea many financiers and large manufacturers
already hold this view. Presently, more
over, "The farmer will see that only pros
pering world can purchase his surplus wheat
at good prices the workman will see that
only full-time production sustained by for
eign markets can guarantee his continuous
employment and the small business man
will see that only prosperous farmers and
Workmen buy his goods"
Much of the confusion and controversy
over ,-.v subject comes from thinking of in
ternational debts as if they were individual
debts, to be settled by as simple a process
as paying sum of money due In reality.
however, the debts between the nations, or
the larger part of them, must be paid in
goods and services, if they are paid at all.
Says an authority: There is not now and
will not be in the future enough gold in the
world to meet the immense international
bills with interest in fifty or a hundred
years.
But payment in goods and services while
satisfactory up to certain point, may be
carried so far to do the creditor harm.
Suppose, for instance, the tide of foreign
goods poured into American markets to
liquidate our claims should deuge our in
dustries. Obviously it would better to
cancel a debt than to be ruined by it's
payment
The entire question calls for the best
thought both of business leaders and of
statesmen, and for liberal co-working among
the nations concerned.

"Posterity will place Edison as
the greatest man of the age," DR..
John James Tigert, United States
commissioner of education, declared
Sunday night in his baccalaureate ad-
dress at Lander College. DR.. Tigert
made the statement to prove the val
ue of education and technical train
mg.
DR.. Tig gert, himself a noted educa-
tor and now titular head of the edu-
sational system in the United States,
spoke before an immense audience.
He was introduced by DR.. John 0.
Wilson who declared that as the son
Of Bishop Tigert and a grandson of
Bishop McTye who was educated at
Eokesbury, he was almost known
here already.
MAN does have some similarities
With the anthropoid ape but the
great differences come from educa-
tion and training" DR.. Tigert declar-
cd. His address was a brief for edu-
cation, education of the heart, head
and hand. He clearly pointed out the
folly of mere education of the head
alone without that of the heart and
he gave numerous illustrations of
the material value accruing from
education and training.
Education is the great basis of
difference between people. Edison
with his wondrous mind represents
more than millions Of other people.
Pcsterity will vindcate Edison as
the greatest living man today. 1t
is the lives and souls of men that
makes the difference, not physical
gpaiities," Dr.. Tigert continued.
South Has Been Exploited.
GMy heart has bled for the South.
Others have exploited the South in
4 material way. The development Of
skill and knowledge has made the
difference. Some have been so super
fetal in their thinking that material
things appear to them as the chief
factors of life. I challenge anyone
20 show development from raw ma
serial alone. Technical study and
skill has made Detroit the center of
the automobile industry, not because
Detroit has the raw materials; De-
srcit has a monopoly on the knowl-
edge of automobile making. Knowl-
edge and skill not raw materials Gre
ate wealth.
Men who have not knowledge
have not the ability to create values.

By her cotton factories. 1t was the

CHARLIE CHAPLlN'S MOTHER

Washington, May 27.--Mrs. Han

production. Massachusetts, first de-
veloped the technical skill and
knowledge and skill not raw materials
created that wealth.
"The knowledge of Eli Whitney,
displayed in the invention of the cot
ton gin, added millions to the value
of the property Of the South.
Not Yet Enough knowledge.
"The value of thorough education
can't be estimated. America didn't
know enough to appreciate the por-
trait of Whistler's mother and now
it hangs in France, the greatest
work of art of any American. We
have not yet had a sufficient lnva-
sion of knowledge. Out of dollars
worth of raw material, Raphael paint
ed the Sistine Madonna, a creation
of art of inestimable value. 1t was
not raw material but knowledge.
"Great commonwealth are built
by knowledge. Those who mean to
be our governors must learn to gov
ern themselves. Lord Macauley said
the United States would fail because
people could not educate themselves
and the nation would be destroyed
from vandals from the inside. Roose-
welt said we had fifty-ffty chance
to save America. Burke said that if
America failed it would be because
it would be impossible to educate its
rulers.
Ninth Among Nations.
"The United States stands ninth
among the nations of the world in
education. The average citizen is a
sixth grader. Only half who should
be are in school, No nation can exist
when she ignores the causes of dis
integration.
Education of Heart Necessary.
Germany is an example of power
from knowledge. But it was knowl-
edge devoted to destruction. Henry
Grady's statement that the universi-
ties would be the training camps of
the future was prophetic.
"The Germans knew that knowl-
edge was power but back of their
knowledge was the most damnable
program ever known. When we get
knowledge, we must get education OF
the heart as we'll. The head, hand and
heart should all be educated. German
Kultur was the only force that
could have done what it did. 1t fail
ed because the important factor of
education of the heart had been neg
lected.
"If you can't educate the heart,
leave the organism alone. Otherwise
you may make an ordinary thief,
wrecker of great financial institu-
tions."
