seen on street or sidewalk the ma
chine be at once brought under such
control as to insure instant stop IL
the child does what 1t probably will
do, and that is the wrong thing.
It Is an interesting suggestion, but
what effect it will have as a restraint
on reckless driving is another matter.
Responsibility for deaths and injur-
les does not of course always rest on
automobile drivers. A liberal per-
centage must be allowed for individs
ual carelessness. But even when this
deduction is made the death and in
jury toll to be charged against care
less and incompetent driving is still
a formidable one. Possibly the edu-
cational effect OF the mathematical
problem proposed might have some
restrictive tendency. BUT the work
ing out Of that problem involves rea-
soning faculties and a basic sense Of
personal responsibility. The motor
driver who is drunk or under the
sway OF speed mania has neither.
The only way to reach the place in
his mental and moral anatomy
where the conscience and itelngence
ought to be and are not is by in
creasng certainty and severity OF
punishment.

WRITE rHEM oFF ANp FoRGET TnEM.

WE have received copy Of Armour and Company's
w 1922 Year Book. It contains information so peril
nent to present day agricultural business problems
that trust you will not permit il to get lost midst
your mail and SO escape your attention
The nation is awakening to the importance OF just such
subjects discussed this book, evidenced
by the agricultural conference which President Harding
called and which convened in Washington January %.
On the subject OF national prosperity Mr. Armour
Not until write on losses and forget them
not until we begin again on a bass-can enter
more epoch Of prosperity free and unhampered
Only by the most rigorous economy, concen-
rated effort to reduce costs and even yielding OF tenn
porary gam II need be, can prices be brought back to
parity and normal relationships restored"
The Year Book says relative to farm crops "On the
basis Of some fifteen 10 twenty billion dollars worth Of
yearly farm production, the great superstructure Of
American business is erected. Whatever bears
upon the handling Of this vital output Of the farms
must therefore, have primary influence on the pros
pery OF the country The farmer being the first TO turn
this wealth into medium OF exchange becomes the orig
lnsl purchasing power OF the nation Anything that cuts
into his earnings and reduces his ability TO buy is re-

Most significant is this statement relative labor prob
lems Undoubtedly one Of the most dlncult problems
Of any business is to divide its earnings. But certain
principles coming to be recognized First, the bust
ness must create the earnings before can divide them
Second the capital engaged must receive It's just pay
well as the workers-otherwse it will not be available
for the business Third class strife only determine
which party stronger at the time and is utterly in

What should have been a current
war charge was carried TO the Treas
ury books. until the Administration
became alarmed by the size of the
deficit and implored Congress to
turn the roads back to their owners.
The roads were turned back inn
poverished in revenue, overloaded
with inflated operating costs and
facing an inevitable shrinkage in
business. Instead of being able to
reduce rates In conformity with
the general fall in prices they were
compelled both to fight for debated
labor costs and to ask for increased
rates. They had to swim against
the stream. Mr.. McAdoo's wrong
end-hrst financing had thrown them
out of the economic rhythm.
1t may be said that Mr. Adoo
only a1npllfied the IN effects of
mistaken government policy Of long
standing. The railroad administra-
tion started out to give a demonstra-
ton OF the benefits of government

thing quite different. Had the Nc

pRACrICAL CHRISTIANITY.

PRACII(Al ClthlSllANii1 l.
To the Editor of The Evening
Journal:-Those who believe in
practical Christianity were pleased
recently to note the announcement
that the American Cast Iron Pipe
Company had adopted the teachings
of Jesus Christ as the ruling prin-
ciples OF its business. The conten-
ton is becoming widespread that It
the Christian religion is what its ad-
herents claim for it. it ought TO fit in
and regulate the daily lives Of men
and women. and not he used only in
Sabbath worship without any week
day application. A movement for
the broad, practical application OF
Christian principles to everyday bus
mess and industry, art, education
philosophy, social ethics and the
whole range of human life is spring
ing up, and it holds out much hope
to our great liberal Christian con-
stituency of being able to bring the
nation truly, and not merely pro-
fessedly, to Christ. The modern
world demands a practical, applied
Christianity-a Christianity OF toler-
ance. liberality and adaptability, in
stead of the narrow. intolerant,
straight jacket and inapplicable the
ology of the sixteenth century. Peo-
pie all over the United states are
manifesting an interest in this prac-
teal Christianity idea.
