Cricket ms ever been Ensland's na-

the mature men. even against base

NOT DANGEROUS"

Remarking on the coming appoint
ment Of farmer to tho Federal Re
serve Board. the National City Bank
of New York remarks tho objection
is not that II, is dangerous 70 have a
farmer on the board. but that all tho
arguments for it have been unsound.
1t has been carried thru by one Of tho
spasms OF ill-informed opinion Of
which tho creation OF the farm bloc
Itself IL the chief expression"
1t is something to have an important
Wall Street influence confess that after
all tho country wifi survive having a
farmer on the Federal Reserve Board
and that his presence there IL not even
dangerous, only the argument that
brought him there. In fact this big
gest bank in the United States gees
on to say that ut Is very likely tho
President IN making his selection OF
farmer VIII choose broad-minded
man"
The surprising thing is that the
same dangerous argument" was
made and succeeded before the origin
al measure was enacted. AS that
measure passed agriculture was in
cluded in making up the bank boards
of the IL reserve districts. altho omit
] ted in providing for the Federal Re
serve Board which would seem to in
dicate that Il was intended to exclude
agriculture from among the industrie.
represented at the top.
The inclusion OF agriculture in rh'
original law, disposes of the Wal
Street argument that agricultur,
should not be expressly named. L
has been expressly named all along
and then expressly omitted from IN,
Federal Reserve Board. The new Law
cowects that inconsistency and put

WHAT POLICE RECORDS SHOW.

In a recent magazine article. Mr.,
Judson c. Welliver attempted to show
that drunkenness. the drug habit and
crime have decreased under prohi-
bition. That his statistics were open
to question many readers of the
article must have suspected. Now
comes Mr.. Charles S. Wood to confirm
this impression with figures taken
from the police records of thirty
cities. They reveal the situation UT
to the end of 1921. and their correct
ness is not open to doubt. Further
more. 1t appears that Mr.. Welliver
| dealt with conditions as they existed
In 1920. An added year of prohibition
has made them materially worse.
Summarizing the results in these
cities, which include places as diverse
in population and other respects as
Philadelphia and Richmond, Boston
and Kansas City, it Is shown that il

BALANCING LIFE.

Pile II up. the sin and shame,
Filth and care and strife;
Count the crooks who play the game
Herd the worst OF life
All together in a heap,
Toss the vices in.
Tawdry, shallow men and cheap,
Villains dyed with sin,
Picture all the grief and gloom.
Anguish and despair,
But above II all will loom
Lasting beauties rare.
Cynic, viii match you here
Joys for every woe.
And a smile for every sneer
Proudly will I show.
Show your women false and base
An I'll show TO you
Many q sweet and tender face.
Brave and good and true;
Gainst your heap of what is bad,
Vice and shame and wrong.
I viii balance evenings glad,
Glad with mirth and song.
viii bring you faith to cure
All the stings OF woe.
Strength and courage to endure
Fate's untempered blow;
For the tawdry men you've found
At life's ragged ends
will match you. round by round.
With a host OF friends.
Sin and shame and hurt are here,
Failure, vice and care,
But the world at which you sneer
Still ie wondrous fair.

FIGHTING THE OIL NUISANCE

The Port Development Commission
OF baltimore. at n meeting this week,
adopted n resolution calling upon Con-
gross 10 enact legislation TO prevent
the emptying OF OIL wHste In the water
by oil carrying and OIL burning ves-
sells. Tho port OF Baltimore has suf-
fercd much by this annoying and dam
serous nuisance. and the situation
fully justifies the statement included in
the resolution Of protest. rs follows:
"rhe cNting Of oil refuse into
the sea from oil-burning and OIL
carrying vessels has become a
serious menace To the maritime
and fishing industries, and cre-
ated fire hazards by the accumu-
lation OF floating oil about the
piles of piers and bulkheads OF
the harbor waters. and also
threatens 20 exterminate the food
products Of the Chesapeake Bay
and its tributaries"
Il would be well for the harbor au-
thorities OF our city 20 take part In
this movement for the eradication OF
serious evil. Anyone who has been

FOR THE PEACE OF THE WORLD

In his admirable address at the Pill
grims' dinner In London, Monday
night. at which he was the guest o,
honor. Chief Justice TAFT said:
"As citizen with no official
mandate I beg those Britons I
am addressing not to be misled
by temporary ebullitions OF one
faction or another. but to. count
on the fundamental public opin-
ion OF the United States in re-
spect to our foreign relations,
which will always prevail IN q
real exigency and which regards
the maintenance Of friendship
with England as a most neces-
sary surety for the peace OF the
world
Here is solid truth expressed Il
n few terse words. No matter wha
may be said to the contrary, especiall,
by those whose minds are perverte
by passion or hatred. the cordial CO
operation and friendship OF the tw
great Engilsh-speak!ng nations 10 cs

united in good purpose, there can
no doubt OF the cordial cooperate
Of other nations. Without their unit,
