RUSSIA'S NEW CAR

Monarichial circles everywhere should
express their warm disapproval of the
selection for the car of Russia. There
has been complete abandonment of the
legitimist succession. Worse yet, the desig-
nation of the new car was by the semi
democratic method of election. 1t is an
outrage upon all the traditions.
The new car is the Grand Duke Nicho-
las. He was elected at secrete meeting
Of the Supreme Council of Russians in
Paris. Three other candidates for the
throne were present, the Grand Dukes Cy-
|ril, Dmitri and Alexander.
The Grand Duke Cyril was the principal
claimant. With Dmitri and Alexander he
had long lead on Nicholas for the legiti-
mist rights. But the Supreme Council,
with an utterly bourgeois disregard for
birth and a political tendency toward a
strong man, picked Nicholas. The latter
led several of the late cars armies in i'm
|pressive defeat.
The new car will do his ruling in alb
sentia. The Supreme Council decided to
move it's throne from Berlin to Paris. The
French city is better fitted for such mon
archical work as Nicholas the Third will
have to do. Besides there is an Emperor
|Napoleaon in Paris generally. Kings of the
Bourbon and Orleans families will also
keep him company, while Spanish Carl
list king drops in occasionally.
Nicholas the Third has not acquired a
very paying job, but if he stays away from
Russia he may retain his health.

MODERN GAINS

The crimes of violence that in increasing
numbers, are recorded in the daily news
columns are commentary on the imita-
tiveness of the criminal Prompted by
greed or revenge or lust, the killers go
about their business in the same old way.
While death-dealing agencies have been
modernized and novelties in killing have
been introduced in the latest records, this
is merely detail. The man who uses an
automatic for his work differs only in
dress from Cain-the great prototype OF
the murderer.
Cain was a man who had some claim
on sympathy-by way, not lessening of ex-
tenuating his offense, but of creating pity
for the feelings that followed his deed.
Then the world was young. All around
was teeming life. Death had not come to
raise it's mysteries. When the first muir
derer struck, he must have known that he
was offending against man and God-but
he could not have realized the full result
of his act. He could not have known in
advance the horror of seeing life go out
under his blow, of seeing a living being
sink into dead clay
But those who have followed Cain have
known what to expect They have killed
knowing what death means. And they are
still killing. That horror which Cain must
have experienced is not theirs They STAY
because they are willing to bear the hor-
ror for the sake of gratifying evil pas
sion They have even less claim to sympa-
thy than had Cain.

RADIUM POSSIBILITIES

The discovery of big radium deposits
in the Belgian Congo was the biggest thing
in the news for several weeks Radium
is SO expensive, something like $4,000 a
gram, that it has not come into anything
like general use even in the medical
profession, where it is most needed.
Because radium radiates energy, it is
effective in dealing with cancer. The
emanation of energy dissipates the can
cerous cells and causes them to be car
ried away just as healthy body matter is
replaced. It's use doubtless will be greatly
extended in the next generation
There is wider field, about which prac-
tical men have hardly thought. Could the
radium supply be so greatly increased and
cheapened that its energy could be trans
muted into light, power and heat for the
worlds work, our fuel problem would be
solved for all time. We are far now from
such a moment Nut it is well that we
konw about the possibilities, dream about
them, hope about them and look forward
to the day when man shall have mastered
all the chemical properties of the earth
crust, just as he has mastered the organic
life upon it.

LOVE-

LOVE-
We expect the young folk to read this,
because whenever the word love sticks up
out of the printed page they get all nervous
and excited and they want to see what it's
all about.
There was man by the name of Rodger
Dolan, and he loved a maid of Is. That
was 40 years ago. He knew all the anguish
of love mrequited. For she wanted to
treat him "like brother" So Rodger went
away.
The other day he returned. He looked
upon the face of the woman he had loved.
She had matured in beauty, and retained
the traces of her girlish charm.
But this is no fairy tale. 1t is real life.
Rodger Dolan discovered that he no longer
loved her. "She fitted by ideal as suit of
badly tailored clothes fits my body" Dolan
said.
How much better it was that this couple
never married. Rodger Dolan might have
come to the same realization after the
excited period of first love was gone, and
then the divorce court would have been
just around the corner.
Better think of the girl or the boy as a
mature man or woman, young folk, before
you take the fatel step. Will that picture
fit your ideal as we'll as the present one, or
will it seem like suit of badly tailored
clothes?

TOO MUCH POLITICS

Whatever merits may have been pos
sessed by the so-called Dyer anti-lynching
bill, it's death in the senate was no sur
prise. From the day Of its introduction,
the measure was doomed, and it is doubt
full if its proponents, although they were
in position always to expect majority,
ever expected it to become law.
Many of those who voted for the pro-
posal in the house expressed grave doubts
as to its constitutionality, and graver
doubts as to whether it was practicable
Yet they were willing to pass the buck to
the senate, the president, the supreme court,
or the law enforcement agencies, rather
than chance the loss of votes which might
come from voting their convictions.
The bill met its death through the
agency of Democratic filibuster, and an
agreement among Republican leaders who
found their views Of the legal and political
advisiability of the bill in conflict, were
more than willing to let it die rather than
face record vote on it.

THE BOCEY-CHASERS-

About three years late is the American
Defense Society, Inc, which has just es-
tablished headquarters in New York City
and bureau in Washington.
The new bureau has announced that its
work will be to do battle with the commm-
list party and all other radical organiza-
tons which design to bring about by
violence the destruction of the govern
ment.
Just subsequent to the world war the
bolshevist bogie doomed largest in this
country. Then, with A. Mitchell Palmer
at the head of the department of justice,
would have been the time for the Ameri-
can Defense Society, Inc, to have done
its work. Now, however, Mr.. Daugherty
is attorney general and he has other trou-
bles than soviet alarms. 1t looks as if the
new bureaus bouts will be largely in the
nature of shadow boxing.
However, it looks like a good soft job
for some secretary, and SO long as the pub
lie is willing to contribute what's the diff
ference?

in such defensive would be the

that there existed a present short

we must Immediately build an all
service that could take the offensive
