We took up their recommendations and
we already have passed a statute which
provides means of putting ths prison
industries on an industrial basis. We
have put at the head of that business an
expert and the work is already going
forward.
VIII Teach Honesty.
But this kind of thing will teach men
what they need TO know TO earn an
honest living and will accustom them
10 regular habits, which is the important
thing If we are going to reclaim them
The other point Is that this work isn't
being done in disregard of the special
groups that are interested
THE recommendation or the Prison
Association first of all was considered at
the very outset. Labor is being con-
sidered. Labor organizations are being
considered because they are interested
in the problem. This work is being done
by the Industrial Manager, Frank
Glynn. in consultation with the repre-
sentatives of labor and with Hugh
Frayne, who is cooperating and who
happens to be the kind of labor leader
who is attempting to promote the real
interest of labor instead of some selfish
personal motive
Similarly Gov. Miller defended his
course in welfare accomplishments as
applied 10 disqualification of ex-servce
men by the State. He asserted that the
project of the Smith administration TO
build a S3,000.000 hospital at Creed
moor was wholly impractical and i'm
practicable and was not wanted by the
ex-service men themselves, since they
didn't want to be taken from various
hospitals in the State and out of reach
OF their friends.
Here again Gov. Miller said was an
instance of Mr.. Smith heedlessly seek
ing &c please a certain special group in
comps rison with a Miller effort to think
out problem so as to give effective
immediate service.
The two instances illustrate the kind
of government Mr.. Smith stands for
and the kind of government l stand for,
he declared. His kind cost the tax
payers s54. 100000 in new taxes the last
year he was in office. The kind of gov
eminent we are now trying to inaugu-
rate left nearly s23.000000 in the pee
pies pockets and rendered service. !
say that il is for the voters to choose
between the two kinds of government"

morrow morning to go to Watertown.

day was his ffty-fourth birthday.

Special Dispatch to THE New YORK HERALD
AUBURN, n. Y, Oct. Jonathan L..
Miller is obviously persistent per-
son. He continues to campaign on the
hitherto unheard of theory that an
American citizen uses his head for
something else than a hatrack. He
continues to make campaign speeches
on the theory that voters have memo
res. This is so strange that the old
wheelhorse politicians who sit up on
the stages during his discusses stare
at him pop eyed. They scratch their
heads and wonder what the world Is
coming to.
Here at Auburn. almost around the
corner from the gray old prison which
takes the name of the town, the Gov
ernor spent an hour or so assuring
$500 persons in the Auditorium that
two aud two make four and that all
the fiapdoodle and flubdub in the world
can't change the result.
His special subject was the actual
welfare work accomplished and the
rart played by his administration, with
special emphasis on prisons and the
conduct of penal institutions. In this
important phase of public service, he
maintained. he had done things. and
all that Alfred f. Smith could claim
for his two years of office was that he
had talked about doing things.
The essential difference between Mr..
Smiths administration and his own.
Gov. Miller said. was that Smith had
spent his time trying to please every
body that came along. especially special
groups with special interests. while he.
with the welfare of all the people in
II ind, had tried to serve first and please
afterward.

this committee are three Jews, Pro-
fessor Milton j. Rosenau, of the
Faculty of Medicine, Assistant Pro-
fessor Harry A. Wolfson of the De-
partment of Arts and Science, and
Professor Paul A. Sachs of the Facul-
ty Of Arts and Science. It seems to
me that DR.. Lowell gives Harvard's
position in this one sentence "Ameri-
canization does not mean merely
molding them (the foreign born in
this country to an already settled
type but the blending together of
1ieves in the scattering" process:
not to have too many of any one peo-
pie in any one university. For that
matter if we followed the same rea-
soning to a logical conclusion it might
be an undesirable condition to have,
say, seventy per cent of the stu
dent body of any university outside
of the city of New York composed of
New Workers. The whole agitation
seems to be based upon the ground
that "huddling" is bad for any group
and any institution.
The House of Lords condemned by
a large majority, though not by any
means a majority of the entire men,
bership, the British Mandate for Pal
estine. Judging by the newspaper
reports it looked very much like
severe setback for the Zionist group
but if any one believes for moment
that this vote means the death-knell
of Zionism he is fooling himself.
However anyone who thinks that
Zionism is going to be successful in
Palestine without a bitter struggle is
also very much mistaken. Further
more with all due respect to the usual
good judgment of Mr.. Balfour think
he is seriously mistaken when he
states that there is very large Jew
ish capital to be invested in Palestine.
True there has been a generous
amount of money invested and con-
tributed but have feeling that the
Englishmen responsible for the Bal
four Declaration are exaggerating in
their own minds the total of the So
called Jewish" capital to be directed
into Palestine channels.
A most interesting sketch q
should imagine from the contents that
it is auto-biographicaD appears in
the "Nation" written by a Jew for
merly resident in Russia. He speaks
about the "Ten Per Cent" limit
placed on Jewish enrolment in the
Gymnasium. It is one Of the most
pathetic stories that one can imagine.
How this little Jewish boy of eight
years was forced to deny himself all
the pleasures and pastimes of child
hood in order to "bone" for the ex-
animation for only FIVE Jewish boys
were to be admitted and hundred
had applied. And all through the
period of his preparation ran the
dread of the "Ten Per Cent" limit:
and how hard he applied himself and
how proud his tutor was of him when
the day of the examination arrived
for had he not shown himself compe-
tent to pass and undoubtedly would
be one Of the five. The little chap
met the tests oral and written brave
ly and just when it seemed as if VIC
tory was in his grasp, one of the ex-
aminers asked him to multiply fifty

that class alone in 1917, the year the
United States entered the war.
The possessors of these great for
tunes are the persons who pay the
bulk of the government taxes. While
the average tax paid by the man with
a $4,000 income in 1920 was but
$f3.So, the average tax paid by the
single millionaire was $685. and
the average tax paid by the super-mil-
lionaire was 1,490. 457.12.
In the aggregate the large number
of small salaried persons received
more income than the super-million-
aires. In 1920 the net income of per-
sons with incomes ranging from 1000
to $4,000 a year reached the gigantic
aggregate of $4.05O,066,6 while the
group of super-millionaires had to
content themselves with an aggregate
income of only $77,07S,139. But the
the relatively poor people had to be
divided among 2,671,95O while the
super-miIlionaires had their $77.o7S,-
1919 to divide among only SO.
While the $4,000 income class
which received an aggregate income of
$4,050,066.61S paid a total tax of only
$36, 859,732, the super-millionaire
class with an aggregate income of
only $77,07s,139 paid the greater sum
of $49,1S5,0S5. That the rich people
of the country bear by far the great
er part of the tax burden is shown by
the fact that all the income classes
from 1000 a year up to $4,000 a
year paid but 1851, 100000 in 1920,
while the classes ranging above $10,-
900 a year all the way up to the. super
mi1lionaires paid a total of sos, 000,-
600. These figures are for 1920 which
was year of high wages in the lower
classes, but a poor year for million
aires. The explanation is found in
the fact that the average rate of tax
in the $4,000 class was but 1.19 per
cent in 1920 compared to 64.65 per
cent for the super millionaires.

tons legislative committee has issued
a plea for a higher tariff on silk. In
his argument appears the following:
Competition between American firms
has stimulated trade and kept down
the price of silk. Our grandmothers
paid from So to Sc for a yard of plain
eighteen inch wide silk when the dol
lar was worth 81 at present values.
Today yard of silk twice as wide can
be purchased for from $3.50 to So"
The result of the lower prices is that
nearly everybody is able to wear silk
to more or less extent, and no demand
by the consumer for the higher prices

HEART AND HOME PROBLEMS

Dear Mrs. ThomI son: am a young
married woman. have been married
just four months and I am seventeen
years of age. My husbands parents
things against me. We are living in
town and they want me to live with
them on the farm. Do you advise me
to go on the farm?
In what way can I get my husband
to do things for me instead of his
would not advise you to go on the
farm with your husbands people. If
you cannot get along with them now,
you may be sure there would be more
trouble II you tried to live together.
Your attitude is not the most kind
ly and there is chance that you are
as much to blame for the unpleasant
ness between you as they arc. Try -
fill your heart with love for them and
do not be afraid of doing little kind
nesses. Jealousy and hard feeling may
spoil your life, while an unselfish
pride in your husband because of his
love for his family would probably en-
dear you to the family and strengthen
the tie between you and your husband.
Love and service pay. The wife
who is not afraid to do services of
kindness for her husband and for his
people is usually very much loved by
them. Think more of what you can
do for others than what you can get
them to do for you.
Dear Mrs Thompson: have two
scars which were caused by boils.
Can you please tell me something that
will rove them? BLUE EYES.
Scars will often disappear with time,
but If yours prove obstinate, make
a lotion OF sixty grains of boric acid
and eight ounces of witch hazel and
see If this has any effect. Massage
will aid considerably the passing OF
a scar.
The electric needle would also re-
move scars of the nature of yours.
