WHAT OTHERS SAY AND

NOT ENOUGH INCOME

Pharisaical self-congratulations
that we are not as those poor Eu-
ropean nations who can't balance
their budgets, and who have TO keep
borrowing money 20 pay their ex-

riouncement from Washington that
the income and profits tax collec-
tons for this year will run 5000

means, according to the New York
World, that the Government, which
had before been at loss 10 meet
appropriations on the basis Of the
budget revenue estimates, now
faces the necessity 81 borrowing
heavily 20 balance its budget.
Treasury officials have been ex-
pecting a drop in total receipts this
year from total Of $4,000, 100000
IN 1921 and $4,000, 600, 900 in 1920

Obedience ]. Imperative

That moment when the boy OF
girl discovers that failure to obey
a command OF father or mother
goes unnoticed is a sad moment IN
the life Of the child and 1t may also
prove sad moment for the par
ents. II is the beginning of re-
beIlion against discipline, Of insur-
rection against law, by immature,
unframed youth, which must end
either in an abrupt halt" order
given by the parents, or the de-
veIopment Of the good sense Of the
child against the handicap OF dis
obedience, or the continued falling
away from parental control, until
finally, like a rudderless ship, the
child, perhaps yet immature, IS
driven along by relentless ignor-
ance or unsubducd passions TO
possible wreck on the reefs that
confront all in the journey through
life
some years ago there was a pop
ular song, "Stick 60 Your Mother,
Tom" which contained advice as
good for the growing generation Of
today as il was for the youth Of
that time. The closer boy sticks
10 his mother, and TO his father al
80, the more he will have 20 be
proud Of ten, fifteen or twenty
years hence. II is not unmanly TO
be respectful and obedient; IL IS
churlish. boorish, foolish 10 be re-
sentful Of parental authority.
But the boy or girl IS only partly
10 blame for failure to obey the
home commands or to respect the
home folks. The parents are equal
~ TO blame, and they can trace the
beginning Of the children's stray
ings to the moment when COM
mand is permitted TO pass unheed-
ed, to the moment when the child
discovers Il and disobey without fear
Of punishment.
Obedience by the children-in-
sistence by the parents that the chill
dren shall be obedient save
many a heartache, keep more Of the
youth Of the land in the straight
paths Of peace and happiness and

Li,;.s From Had to- Mouth

In the DAYS OF the Pharaohs, the
Egyptians seldom had less than three
or -four years supply Of grain and
other foodstuffs on hand against
the possible time when the river
Nile failed to overflow and spread
It's waters over the fields. When
the Spaniards invaded Peru in the
fifteenth century, they found the
ancient civilization of Western
South America forehanded enough
20 have store houses well filled with
foodstuffs from which nothing was

Is true we have the means OF trans

or even importing from distant
parts of the world, but inasmucn as

The time may come when great

LONDON. Aug. 31.-The armies OF
occupation are the barrier 10 Euro

- Snowden wife OF the well-knOwE
British socialist leader.
When I was IN Germany recent
- I found everywhere more resent
ment at the cost and irritation OF
ne occupation than about any
other things" AIRS. Suowden said.
.GerInany cannot at the same time

Big French Force.
s AT the present time France Is
maintaining an army OF $50. 900
nsn. a reduction Of only 1885, on
the pre-war figure. In the present
year France is spending on her
army a sum o. as mllliards or
francs. which IS 80 times more than
the military expenditure Of Germany.
The expenses OF the army OF Oc-
cupation in the Rhineland up TO
May 81 last amounted TO FIVE and a
half m!iliard gold marks. In the
Ast eight months OF 1921 Germany
paid 81 miiliard gold marks. She
has also paid sums incidental 20 the
largest share OF this because she
Keeps $4,000 troops on the Rhine.
ITO elaborate the above state
msnt Is interesting The Rhineland
commission should consist OF four
persons only. AS a matter OF fact
there are 1900 members. whose
salaries and expenses in the last
sight months OF 1921 amounted to
LIS million marks.
Belore the war Germany had
70. 0CO soldiers in the now occupied
area. In the summer e the pres
ent year there were 10000 troops.
OF whom about 90 900 were French.
1O.500 Belgian. 5000 British and
1900 American.
More Aviation Fields.
Before the war Germany had in
the occupied area seven aviation
grounds. The occupying armies
have required the establishment Of
"a new aviation grounds-12 Of
these being for the French. This
means the !oss Of roughly $500
acres Of good cultivatable lard.
Before the war Germany had In
the Rhineland seven drill and
shooting stations. The occupying
armies have requisitiOned seven
teen more grounds. covering 6,4OO
acres. and Of these I3 are for the
French"
