every home, every building, public
and private, will be equipped to re-

radio receiving set will be as much a
part of the building as the furnace
and the kitchen stove. 1t will be
possible, as it is now, for every man,
woman or child to hear, at the in

given to the air. 49,

REPUBLICAN ECONOMY

Vice-President Coolidge would be
more convincing in his -eulogy Of the
economies effected by the Harding
administration If he had not denied
his own conclusions almost before
he put them forth. After citing that
Federal appropriations for all pur-
poses before the war were about
$1,00O,000,000, he triumphantly an
nounces that for the last fiscal year
they were 5,000.000,000 and have
since been reduced to a rate Of
tpaltry $4,000, 100000. This great
saving of $1,000, 100000, Mr.. Cool
idge infers, is due to the present adj
ministration's mania for retrench
ment. The Vice-President says:
IF, from present expenditures,
there be deducted those items that
arose from the war and the ex-
ira amount now being expended on
good roads and the army and navy,
the present cost of running the gov
eminent would not exceed the pre-
war cost by more than 100000
1000"
Mr.. Coolidge, therefore, would
have the country believe that the
amount by which present appropri-
atoms fall short of wartime and de
mobilization appropriations is due to
G. o. P. economy; while the amount
by which present expenditures ex-
coed pre-war OUTLAWS is due to con-
tinuing was burdens.
That's fair enough, Mr.. Coolidge.
But you should know that this adj
ministration can not eat it's cake and
have it, too. If the war burden is
responsible for the high rate OF ex-
penditure to-day as compared with
pre-war times, it's lifting is also re-
sponsible for what opportunity the
administration has had Of making a
showing financially.

WHAT WILL RADIO BRING?

When Edward Bellamy, 35 years
ago, wrote his fascinating prophecy,
Looking Backward" from the year
1000, people gasped at his daring,
while approaching his imagination.
In one astounding chapter the RIP
Van Wrinkle of the narrative is taken
to the music room, where he is asked
TO make known his choice from a
very long 24-hour music program.
He indicates an organ piece; his
hostess made me sit down comfort
ably, and, crossing the room, so far
as could see, merely touched one or
two screws, and at once the room
was filled with the music Of a grand
organ anthem"
Such an increditable prophecy
that the Bellany work was CLASH
fed in the Libraries os fiction"
and so speedily has scientific devel-
opment occurred that in many Ii
braries it still is fiction" Yet this
is only 1922, not 1000, and by the
time the Bellamy era of prediction
Is reached who dares to foretell the
achievements of men.
The radio is an accomplished fact.
Man has discovered a great secret;
now he sets to work to develop and
apply it. The limitation Of the HUI
man voice exists no longer. and a
whisper thrown to the air becomes
instantaneously a chorus in mil
lion homes.
Its possibilities are so limitiless
that the day is not far distant when

the radiophone as the supreme me-
dunn of human fellowship, whereby
all peoples may grow closer together
in thought and purpose, with the in
evitable dissipation of differences
which comes with understanding.
This great triumph of peace has
brought to the present day stimu-
LUIS and interest so much greater
than anything recorded in history
that it seems as though it can not
do less than reconstruct the5 very
basis of humanity's daily inter-
course and relations.

PASSING OF GOOD MANNERS

The accusation is made that men
no longer are as courteous to wO-
men as they once were. Good man
ners are out of date, it is said. The
change is imputed to the change in
woman's status. Since she has left
the shelter of the home and engag-
ed in business and public activities,
it is not considered needful to show
her Difference. Men, unashamed,
will remain seated in street cars
while women stand; they will
smoke in mixed society, without so
much as asking permission; they will
speak of girls as fellows" "She's
a good fellow one will hear them
say. Does it mean that the enfran-
chisement Of women, the striking off
of the shackles, has killed chivalry
that men cannot be expected to show
courtesy to women unless women oc-
cupy subordinate position in soci-
lety?
1t may be that women are them
selves partly to blame. Some have
lost the respect that formerly was
theirs by adopting masculine ways.
A few foolish ones dislike to be
thought of as "the weaker SEX" or
"the gentler SEX" and on that &C
count discourage the showing of
Difference to them, thinking it i'm
plies that they are not the equals
of men. Of course they are not
the equals of men in muscular
strength, and they should glory in
not being the equals Of men in
coarsness, either.
If there is to be leveling of the
sexes it should be effected by raising
mems standard of refinement, not by
lowering of women's. A great man
showed perception Of this many
years ago at a banquet in his honor
"Since there are no ladies present, u
said one of the speakers, mo harm
| will be done by my telling an in
delicate story" But there are gen.
tlemen present. objected the great
