STATE EMPLOYEES IN POLITICS

News dispatches mentioned Judge A. II.
Long, Madison attorney for the railroad COM
mission, IS one of the speakers at the Chica-
go conference of socialists, Non-partisan leag
uers and other radicals says the Milwaukee
Sentinel. IF Mr.. Long was not misquoted,
it appears that he INDUCED in criticism of the
University of Wisconsin which was calculated
to please those attending the conference This
is an interesting spectacle in view of the rather
general impression that state employees are not
supposed to take time from their work to play
politics."
"Did Mr.. Long inform Gov Blaine that he
intended to speak at the Chicago conference !?
It seems only fair to the governor to believe
that he knew nothing about it, but now that
he does know, what is he going to do? If it is
not improper for Mr.. Long to address meet
ing, which had under consideration the
formation of a new political party, other
state employees may feel that they may
follow a similar course with perfect safety SC
far as their relation to the public pay roll is
concerned.
IF this is a fair and logical deduction, then
we may expect to see tax commissioners, civil
service commissioners, highway commission
ers, and various other kinds of commissioners
and state employees skylarking around to poll
tics if they feel like it."
Public employees have right to their own
opinions it is their duty, as it is the duty of
every other citizen, to be interested in good
government and the election of the right kind
Of men to serve the people, but it is not in the
interest of the highest efficiency at Madison
to have them carry their convictions to the
point of taking the stump The question is
one of public policy
IF they are letting the bars down at Madison
if state employees are going into politics as
speakers and vote hustlers, this is something
that will cause Gov. Blaine not a little trouble
in the coming campaign"

Two Men Drowned
On Delavan Lake

(By Associated Press Leased Wire.)
GAINESVILLE, Wis. - After repeated
warnings that the ice would not hold,
James Roach, 38, and Thomas Bart
lett, a, of Harvard, drove out from
the shore on the Delavan lake Sunday
morning in an automobile. The ice
gave way and the machine and men
went down. At noon the body of Roach
was found still at the steering wheel
of the machine. Bartlett had jumped
out and was caught under the shelf
of ice. His body was recovered at
$500 p. m. On the bank stood the
father of Roach, aged 70, who had ac-
companied the party to the lake to
fish. The accident was about thirty
rods from shore. A crowd of skaters
told the men that they were in danger
but they secuted the idea. Bodies of
Roach and Bartlett were taken to
Harvard. Both men are married with
children. One of the rescuers was
Glen Hollister, who has cottage on
the lake shore. While he was assist
ing in recovering the bodies his cot
tage had burned.

Business Tips

A gradual increase of activity in
various lines is one of the cheering
signs of the times. 1t is the herald
of a movement that is sure to gain in
numbers and momentum from month
to month until the general situation
has attained distinct Improvement
Study of our governments commercial
reports from abroad discloses numer-
Gus indications of reviving industry in
even the darkest sections of Europe.
These have assets and resources not
widely known of. A good deal of solid
foundation for prosperity exists in
the worst-situated portions of the con-
tinent. With an improved morale
largely matter of will power-war-
mangled Europe would recover soon a
big PERCENTAGE of her former produc-
ing ability.
But whatever may be the case "over
there" Americans have no substantial
ground for chronic depression. In the
United States opportunities are as
abundant today as they have been in
any stage of our history. 1t does not
stand to reason that American push
and initiative will ignore and fail to
seize occasions for important under
taking and profits. Take, for instance,
the wonderful commercial field which
aviation has opened up and the re-
markable possibilities connected with
hydro electric development in every
part of the land. In these directions
alone extraordinary progress should be
made within another decade. But they
are only two out of host of inviting
and feasible openings for enterprise
which this great country affords.
The next quarter of century, in
deed, bids fair to be the most pros
porous and splendid period the Unit
ed States has yet known. The nations
resources and capacities will be put
into profitable use as never before.
We foresee for our mining, oil and ag-
ricultural interests unexampled pros
perity. Our industries and our COM
merce will flourish beyond precedent.
Destructive radicalism is waning and
will not be able to bar the pathway
of national thriving. It is increasing
ly certain that some policy will be de-
vised for averting DISASTROUS contro-
versies and warfare between labor
and capital. The wealth and comfort
of the people will be correspondingly
enhanced, and our example of peace
and contentment will have pacifying
effects all over the globe.

RADIO NEWS

Senator Miles Poindexter is the author Of a
resolution to extend the time under which Gov
eminent owned radio stations may be used for
the transmission of press and commercial dis
patches. The Presidents views on this sub
ject were recently made public He said: "This
is measure in which the press is very greatly
interested, looking to the promotion of bet
ter and more helpful exchange Of news with
the Orient and the Islands of the Pacific. l
am well convinced that the passage of this
resolution would be highly beneficial" The
resolution has been adopted by the house and
is on the Senate calendar and Senator Poin-
dexter will expedite its passage.
The dissemination of news by radio is of no
less interest in connection with our Latin
American relations. If Government owned ra-
dos are used>for that purpose we may rest as
sured that American news flashed southwark
will not be of the contemplate sort which has
long characterized the news sent over foreign
owned cables and radios concerning the United
States. For a long time, while foreigners con-
trolled the dispatches to the Latin Americans.
those peoples were surfeited with accounts of
gunner, divorce SUITS, embellishments. and
graft occurring in this country, while good
news was industriously blue-penciled. The
purpose was to convince the Latin Americans
at we were hoodlums, voluptuaries, and sec
ad-story men with whom they should have no
traffic or association. That was one way of
handicapping our commercial relations
There are many good things that come out
Ct America and the Poindexter resolution will
assure that our sister republics will be appraised
OF them until such time as private initiative

CAPITALIzING COMMUNITY INTEREST

The most interesting political development
of the closing week Of the pre-primary cam
paign is the filing of petitions for Mrs. Esther
Goldberg for the office of school commission
er in the ninth ward. Mrs. Goldberg is the re-
preventative of class of earnest interested
women in Kenosha who in recent years have
been doing much to create a better communi-
ty spirit and spirit which is in favor of bet
ter civic conditions and educational advance
ment.
The time has come to capitalize this COM
munity interest. These women who have led
in the work of interesting the people in better
schools should be willing to go step farther
and follow Mrs. Goldberg and become candi-
dates for places on the school board For
years they have been training their minds
along the line of things desirable for the bet
torment of the conditions of the children of
the city and this information should be put to
a more practical use by giving it some official
authority
People who understand the problems of the
schools are particularly fitted to properly han
die the official management of school system.
The full participation of women in the political
life of the city finds it's finest and most appro-
pirate expression in the service of the children
by membership on the board of education. The
work that has been done by the parent-teachers
associations and similar organizations has
been of value but it will never reach it's full
value until these especially trained workers
have been given the chance to officially bring
these ideas and ideals to the notice of the peo-
rle Of Kenosha.
AIRY one who has followed the work of
these organizations will feel safe to have the
leaders Of them work in official position. There
will be feeling that safe and sane program
and progressive program will be outlined for
the schools of the city. These women stu
dents of conditions in Kenosha are not theor-
lists and they are as hard listed as any of the
men who might be elected to office.
Their value is. that they know what should
be done and have some information as 70 the
methods which may be properly used in secur-
ing better conditions.
These women know the relations of the
home and the school. They have an apprecia-
tion of just hoy these relations may be foster
ed and extended They know the problem of
the child from two angles and have shown an
interest in knowing the problem of the child
from all angles. They have personal interest
in the children of Kenosha which makes it
paramount interest in their lives to have bet
ter schools and better conditions surrounding
the child life.
Expert knowledge is Of value in every -
fetal board of city or state ard the expert
knowledge that these women have gained by
years Of study and discussion should be made
o real asset in bringing better conditions

Daily Health Hint

There is generally accepted belief
among women that particular foods
have specific effects upon the charac-
ter of mothers milk.
There is nothing to support this be-
lief. Foods are broken down in the
digestive tract and made over in the
body. Any wholesome diet, ample in
fuel and building materials, is
suitable for the production of good
milk.
However, it must be remembered
that the milk glands are exceedingly
sensitive to any nervous influences,
and disturbances of digestion react
unfavorably upon the milk-secreting
mechanism.
For this reason, any food that dis
agrees with the mother, or whose eff
feet is doubtful, should be avoided.
Increased demands for food make the
work of digestion unusually great
There is therefore more chance of an
upset and the diet should be cor
respondingly simpler and easier of di-
gestion.
Emotional and physical disturbances
must be avoided. Excitement, worry
anger, fear, fatigue and constipation,
all react quickly and with varying I'M
favorable results on the mothers milk.
Successful nursing demands quiet,
contented life in which food is intel
ligently chosen and exercise, fresh
air and mental diversion are supplied
in moderation.

NOT MAKING THAT MUCH

The order of the Interstate Commerce Com
mission to the railroads that they turn over to
the Treasury one-half of all earnings in excess
of 6 per cent is not so impressive as it may ap-
pear at first reading. The fact is that very
few lines have been able to show as much in
come as the order would indicate, but the law
provides that one-haf the excess shall be turn
ed over to the Government, hence the action of
