biz current reforms In college
athletics are ending the old
process of secretly sub
sidizing prize athletes by "loans"
originating with wealthy alumni.
That is good. y
Some of the dry dust element
in college faculties are crying that
athletics should be abolished al
together. The young men come
there to train their minds, the
professors claim; why should they
be allowed to squander all this
attention and energy in mere
sporti
The physical exuberance of
youth requires physical outlet.
Athletic competition gives that
outlet in the healthiest form. If
the road to baseball field and
running track is barred, the de-
tour which students take will not
lead to any class room.
The trouble is not that there is
too much but too little athletics
in colleges and schools. The Big
Team System that we follow con-
demns most of the students to be
mere observers. not participants,
in the benefits of outdoor sports. :

ln bns ~ WHY V'
result Of the Four Power
Treaty by which we have been
flung into entangling alliances
such entangling alliances as would
make Washington and Jefferson
and all the elder statesmen turn
over in their graves.
The London Times in leading
editorial warns Japan that the al
lance with the United States
must not be taken as carte
blanche to extend her aggressions
against China and to close the
Chinese door, which former
American statesmen had opened
for the trade of all the world and
which supposedly was to stay
open.
Underneath the table where the
governments are playing the in
ternationa game of cards as part
ners, they are kicking each others
shins, whenever they get a chance
in China. The England com
mercial agent, the English indus
trials with British products for
sale, bitterly resent Japanese
methods and their high handed
manner. of obtaining Chinese
trade, and of monopolizing the
great, undeveloped resources in
raw materials within the Chinese
frontiers. Back of the Japanese
trader follows the Japanese gov
ernment, stealthy, watchful, like
a cat stalking bird. The
brusque, overbearing, intolerant,
self sufficient, egotistical English
man is no match for Oriental
guile, backed by a nearby mill
taristic imperialism.
Britain's interests in China
were identical with ours, but
India, always India, has COM
PEELED Britain to take the risk of
making US cease, in our own in
terests and in our own sense of
justice, to protect China, even
though that protection was to
British interest also.
SO much for the necessity to-
preserve the power to bleed three
hundred million people to death
and to maintain the control Of
the seas by the one-sided dis
armament which the agreements
at Washington have provided.
The Japanese are constituting
this treaty, according to the Lon
don Times, exactly as the Hearst
newspapers and the opponents of
the treaty in the United States
Senate predicted she would, and

stances of the treaty indicated

President s
VI Bonus LaU
~ CoEDIERs BONUS passed the

dVuoO lWO WOCho oSo' AhS
House bill is now before the
Senate Finance Committee. What
will the committee do about it'
Interesting question.
The House bill is not.what Mr..
Harding wants, or said he wants.
First, on February 5th, in let
ter to Mr.. Fordney, chairman of
the House Ways and Means Com
mittee, the President said he
would find unacceptable bonus
bill whose funds were provided
by bond issue or an issue of
short time Treasury notes.
The House bill provides for a
bond issue, each soldier being en-
titledsto a $400 twenty-year bond
called ar Soldiers Certificate.
Banks are obligated to lend the
soldier cash up to half the face
value of his certi6cate.>
Second, on February 10th, the
President said with repeated EN-
phasis that he wanted a sales tax
to goiwith the bonus.
Anv comDenxofiou IegisIofion
enacted at this time ought to
carry vith It the proOision for
raising the needed rsUsnus, and
find myself unable to suggest
any comnlendabIe plan other
than that of a general saies tax.
The Senate Finance Committee
is reported to be willing to amend
the House bonus bill to carry a
sales tax, if it gets word from the
President.
liz the President really wants a
bonus law with a sales tax to
carry 1.-THE can have such a law
now if he demands it.
The Senate Finance Committee,
the Senate and the press will
follow him. ohlg u
Then the House will not gdare
reject the bonusltax bill as passed
by the Senate and approved by
President and the press. The
House does not want to carry
back to its constituents respon-
sibility for the failure of all bonus
legislation this session.
1t really is up to the President
to exercise his leadership in the
situation. Upon his action or in
action the outcome will depend.
The outcome will be one of these:
5hT0) There will be no bonus
Legislation this year, Senate
and House falling into a dead
lock.
(2) The bill will pass, f.
