A REAL GOVERNMENT
OPPORTUNITY

II Is hoped that the passing of Will
II. Hays into the movie world will not
slow up the government effort to de-
velop air communication with the
millions of the American people res
/ dent in our rural districts. There IL
something impressive but also perhaps
pitiable in noting the curious thous-
ands of fad followers in thickly popu-
lated cities listening in" to great
broadcasting stations sending out
their educational discourses and rag
time concerts while the welfare of the
nation awaits the rapid and wide
spread transmission of useful informa-
ton to the farmer. Science has wrest-
ed this great new wonder from the
hidden recesses of natures storehouse.
but 1t remains for the government
TO find practical means for its in
telligent and useful application. The
sixty odd millions of people who live
in the little towns of the country can
not afford tive or three hundred dol
lars for patented wireless sets AMI vet
the hope Of the world lies in their
contact with the scheme of things.
instantaneous world communication
VIII put. an. end to destructive wars
far sooner than all the disarmament
that ever has been dreamed about,
and the world will be enriched beyond
our imagination through its agricul-
ture when our farmers can sense each
morning the needs and the pulse of
all the people. A little pep mixed
with vision and realization that
money spent in this way is money
spent for the public good, will put
Lemhi in touch with Broadway, and
1t will put the tiller of the soil so
close to the Wall Street coupon clipper
that misunderstanding and manipula-
ton will melt before the sun of mutual
knowledge. The government can do no
more helpful thing than follow with
the greatest earnestness and speed
the Hays plan of broadcasting in
formation and in way that will per- /
NIT those who need 1t most to get 1t
without unreasonable cost.

HONEY PHILOSOPHY
FOR 1922,

Some people think, and some people
think they think. Some people read,
and some people think they read when
they just meander through the gar
den arm in arm with great men and
never pluck flower. We'd listen with
ears wide open if we could have a
talk with Napoleon, but we don't lis
ten when we meet him in a book and
have all the time in the world to think
about what he said and dill. We are
trying to find out what brings sue
cess and what results in failure. and
the lesson is right under our noses. If
we really read we can soon learn
what characteristics brought great
ness to men and what turned others
into bubbles that tloated up to popu-
larity and then blew up. Seems as if
there's something in meeting dead
ones as we'll as live ones.

remedial Legislation as has been en-
acted by the present congress since

The Boston Transcript, leading re-
publican newspaper of Sen. Lodges
state, in an editorial, March 3, 1922:
Today the record of the House
of Representatives in the first year
of the new administration stamps it
Enthusiastically as the worst house in
twenty years. 1t has done more things
that it ough not to have done, and
1t has left undone more things that
it ought to have done, than any House
Of Representatives controlled either
by the republican or democratic party
that Washington has seen in the last
decade. 1t has broken more pledges,
it has succumbeu to more pernicious
propaganda, it has trespassed in more
directions than has any predecessors
in twenty years. It's presiding officer
is helpless, its leaders are leaders
in name only, and for the most part
they represent either the worst or
the most stupid in either political
camp today. Here and there in our
New England delegation there is a
who is an exception to
the rule, and there will be ample time

tives as controlled by the republican

SHORT MEASURE GASOLINE

Of 100000 gallons, valued at approx

mo evidence has been found" says n
statement issued by the association,
that the fraud is contenanced by
the oil companies"
This is a very serious matter. in
view of the fact that such enormous
quantities Of gasoline are required for
daily use by motor car owners. The
cost is sufficiently heavy even when
they receive all the gasoline which
they are supposed to be paying for:
A total daily filching of two hundred
and fifty thousand dollars from the
pockets of motor car owners should
not be tolerated. Dealers in other
commodities are required to give full
measure and the same should be re-
Quired Of those selling gasoline.
AS a general thing the retail deal
ers of gasoline art strictly honest
but where there is reason to bclirvr
that they are not and where there Is
positive evidence that they are dis
honest in their measuring Of gasoline
bought and paid for, they should be
severely punished as they deserve
