The Status of Porto Rieans

Chief Justice Taft in deciding that the constitu-
ton does not follow the flag has merely expressed
chief justice opinion he held while president
of the United States according to those who have
been familiar with the struggle OF Porto Rico for
American citizenship and the constitution.
While he was president Mr.. Taft stated, it is
recalled. that the granting American citizenship
to Porto Ricans would not confer constitutional priv
leges. Now, chief justice. in the Balzac case he
has held that the Jones act comforting American
citizenship did incorporate Porto Rico into the
United States, and that 1,25o,ooo American citizens
there not entitled trial by jury constitu-
tional right.
Chief Justice Tafts opinion again has raised the
question of future status Of Porto Rico, whether 1t
may be state, remain unincorporated territory
or possibly become free state.
"It is locality that is determinatve of the appli-
cation of the constitution in such matters judicial
procedure" Chief Justice Taft holds, "and not the
status of the people who live in it."
Congress has thought that a people like the
Filipinos the Porto Ricans trained to complete
Judicial system which knows uries, living In COM
pact and ancient communities with definitely formed
and political conceptions, should be permitted
themselves to determine how far they wish to adopt
this institution of Anglo Saxon origin. and when"
he states.
Congress did not depart this policy. the chief
Justice SAYS in making Porto Rcans American citi-
zens, but this action is explained by the desire of
congress to put Porto Ricans "as individuals
exact equality with citizens from the American home
land to secure them certain protection against
the world and to give them the opportunity. should
they desire to move into the United States proper
and there without naturalization to enjoy all political
and other rights" Citizens Of the Philippines, he
points out must be naturalized to become American
citizens.
Counsel for Jesus NJ. Balzac, sentenced to nine
months in Jail for publishing belous articles against
former Governor wager. appeal contended that his
constitutional rights had been ignored because he
refused trial by jury basng their contention the
act of congress that granted citizenship also ncorpo
rated Porto Rico in the union
This contention is set aside in the Taft decision
which also again raises there the question whether
Porto Rico may hope be state Of the union,
point of sharp contention between the Unionst and
Republican parties. 1t is not proper to infer that
congress has shown n intention to incorporate in
"he union these distant communities, of diff
ferent origin and language from those of our CONT
mental people, the opinion states incorporation has
always been STEP important one, leading to
statehood. Without, in the slightest degree intmat-
ing an opinion as wisdom Of such policy, for
that is not province, 1t is reasonable to assume
that when such step is taken. 1t will be begun and
taken by congress deliberately and with clear
declaration of purpose and not left matter of mere
inference or construction"

DAY OF THE FLApPER is DONE

Exit MademoiseIle F1apper; enter Madame Sweet
and 80 Yes that's the latest forecast 1t comes from
those prophetic who contrive to dictate what
the woman will wear by picking out of the air, so
to speak, what the woman subconsclously wants 70
wear.
to be interpreted by an ouburst OF new styles
few months or weeks hence--is to throw away the
hoyden mask of II and assume the ripe and periious
poise. the pantherish grace, of sweet and 80.
THE woman who has suffered Is coming back
again in all her mystery and with all her magic pow
er to complicate our lives rob us of sleep give us
glimpses of heaven and hell and make aware that
alive. And we'll shed tears the
passing of Mile. Flapper, for with all her cuteness
she never shook us foundations of existence
Nine Sweet and 80 has shaken US, 10! these many
times, brothers.
But these sentiments somewhat outside the
scope of the prophets of the clothing trade for they
sadly materialistic creatures whose lives
ruled by considerations of dollars and cents terms
Of t. b. and d., and of other commercial rites
expressed in alphabetical symbolism. To them the
of 80 is the driver of the sacred doves of
Aphrodite but type to be standardized upon the
ideal of perfect Sc.
Perhaps there's no better barometer of the veer-
ing wind of feminine style than the order books of
the nsipid sculptors in who model fashion dunn
mics for department store windows And their art is
no longer expressing itself in flapper dummies No
the call from all the country is for dummies
expressing the stately and syete outlines of
the eloquent thirties.
"The flapper has gone too far, and her control is
waning reports C. E. Stevens, figure maker
istic models of women of 80 and upward. 1t is evi-
dent that the of maturity is coming into her
own again--that she will longer lower her colors

All in the Dark

What is going to happen at Tucson this week in
the fortunes of the democracy of Arizona is beyond
human ken. The most astute of the leaders those
nearest the center of the inside know no more than
the most casual onlooker
There are several things that may happen; there
may be declaration for against all the proposed
constitutional amendments, or some of them There
may be endorsement of Of the candidates for
state offices and that should be DONE the endorse
nent may be accorded anyone of thre or four can
didates
There may be early, and and out decla-
ration against endorsement. In short, any man who
values his reputation as prophet will risk it
by venturing guess the outcome Of events at
Tucson We do not suppose that if all the 152 dele
gates who will be there assembled now and the
various proposals which will be made should now be
laid before them they would be prepared to express
themselves at once either to candidates or party
policies
There is no very definite alignment between the
radicals and the conservatives to all the PROPOSE
tons slated to be brought up. They may be very
plainly divided to the constitutional amendments
the radicals being to a man against them But on
the other hand there conservatives who regard
them with apathy.
As TO the candidates for governor who have been
prominently mentioned there is not one who enjoys
the favor of extreme radicals The candidates who
could the support of moderate radicals cannot
claim the loyalty of extreme conservatives
The uncertainty with which the leaders regard
the evenualty is indicated by peculiar letter which
had been sent out to half dozen of the foremost
chiefs urging them to in Tucson yesterday and
fix things up nicely that when the delegates arrive
today they would find the work had been all nicely
done and they would have nothing to do but sit
around hotel lobbies and enjoy themselves
Considering the gentlemen to whom this letter
was addressed, it attempt to mix oil and
water frost and fire. There is not a proposition
which possibly before the conference on
which these so addressed could all be brought
into accord.
There might be supposed to be thing which
the whole conference desires-the triumph OF the
Democratic party next fall We suppose the rank
and file do desire that but the candidates office
do not for the triumph of the party unless it
involves their personal triumph The leaders of the
factions the control of the party during
the campaign than they do for a party victory in

Margins and Deficits

With some of us luxury means
margin To find just few pennies
in our pocket at the end of the month
not demanded by the voracious cost
of living. is our idea of wealth. Ey-
eryone should have a margin, or the
possibility of attaining II: il promotes
self-respect and emancipates the
spirit somewhat. The laborer who
must spend every cent he makes for
bread is an economic slave.
ITO earn a little, to spend a little
less" was one of the items of sue
cess as Robert Louis Stevenson
named them. The burden of earning
and saving seemed to him an indi-
vidual matter: and we believe 1t still
is. The secret of margin is the in
dividuaI's energy and wit with which
he forces the wage up and the cost
of existence down. No social RENEE
dies or wage increases can help the
spendthrift or the sluggard.
Yet certain laboring, people are as
much justified in looking to legisla-
ton for relief from poverty as the
cotton growers are through a tariff
or the railroads through higher rates.
The individual is not sufficient unto
himself where every factor OF his
economic environment is socialized.
You can't make both ends meet when
you control neither of them, as IS
the sad case with more than million
heads of families today.
We interviewed a Phoenix plumber
