SAFEGUARDING THE PUBLIC.

With all indications pointing to ths fact that the hard coal miners will agree to the acceptance of the agree ment entered into for the settlement7ef the, strike and the reguanption of min ing, it Is to be hoped that the confer ence between Secretary Hoover and the operators will result in that protection for the public against high prices to which 1t Is entitled. &
 Secretary Hoover believes that in ev- cry instance where there is a confer ence looking to 3 settlement of disputes where the public Is seriously involved there should be 9 representative of she public, that third party which bears the effects without having a voice. It is a view which is in accord with. public sep- timent.
 The outcome of the conference which Secretary Hoover is now- having with the operators will be awaited with keen interest in view of the fact that he is endeavering to bring about the estap- lishmept of price that is not unjusti- fled and declares that the public must and will be protected" Making such an assertion is oftenimes easier than car rying it out or to convince the public that such prices as they are getting are justified. {
 It is of course by the results and the facts that the results of tie conference must be judged. At this time 1t is also to be realized that the legislation which is being urged and adopted in congress cannot fail to have its bearing upon present day conditions if those who are to be named to make 2 study of the coal industry are not to be sfurnished some valuable data for corrective rec. concentrations.
 Efforts in behalf of the public develop only as, the result of an emergency: A soon as that begins to disappear it is invariably the case that public concerr is open to neglect until the next time when it is necessary to, go through the whole catalogue of troubles and rene l dies once more Preying ton the guilt bility of the public B an old and profit able practice. Governor Allen of Kan sas. says the public does not get max often enough. Perhaps he is right.

TIME FOE 4 CHANGE.

Nearly 20 years ago treaty was ns- gotiated between this country and Pan anna for the purpose of dealing with, the conditions surrounding the construction of the Panama canal. It is evident that in the meantime the real object has been accomplished, the understanding existed then and there have developed snew conditions in connection with tha canal that. may well get attention ,a light of the present situation
 Thus when President Harding calls the attention of congress to the advis- ability of 3 new treaty to replace the existing one it Is to be realized that 1t Is also desired by Panama Under those circumstances it would appear to be a time for coming to a common under standing regarding conditions in which both are directly concerned. Certainly in view Of the lapse of two decades it is not difficult to realize that changed coz ditions give good basis for new agree. ments and with both countries commit. ted to that view there ought not to bt any great difficulty in coming to an u4. derstanding through a. treaty thai should serve for a much longer period
 The Panama canal Is an inportapi possession for the guarding of whici this country is responsible. Its location is such that 1t must consider it's pro lection from all angles and ' this in ciudes naturally such menaces as migh arise from neighboring countries ol 1 such use as might be made of their ter ritory. The. steps necessary to protee it from such dangers as could develoI l can certainly be expected, and there i no reason why Panama should not an ticipate that we would seek. it for tn good of all concerned.

TAKING THE CAKE

T hoped to have beautiful and fancy cake for dessert tonight sighed Loretta. But alas It was just idle dreaming"
 Did 1t faIl2s asked her brother lazily. T remember that I never was allowed anywhere near the kitchen when was a kid, for fear something would fall. When was very green waited outside, listen ing, thinking could hear the noise.s'
 NO, it didn't exactly fall, laughed Loretta, And, anyway, it wasn't Isthat baked it''
 @Oh. so that was the reason?" asked her brother, inpertinently. You were not responsible for the catastrophe. You intimate that 1t would have been sure to tumble if you had made it.
 There isn't 8 better cakeInaker in our guild, and you know it. said Loretta scornfully 'sThis cake was a prize that was offered at the food sale.
 "The Boy Scouts in the church needed some moneys' Loretta explained. They have been hard up for some time, and we ladies thought we'd take hand"
 Things are unevenly distributed in this world, ]. sighed her brother. q have been hard up for years and there's never been lady or girl who's so much as cared a red cent how was getting along. It has even seemed at times as though they were rather inclined to grease the path that leads to the poorheuse by helping me spend what I had Now, it is announced that a lot of little kids need some wooden guns or some buttons on their uniforms and the women folk fall all over them selves trying to scrape together enough to buy out the town for them. It is enough to make me want to sing Make Me Child Again Just for Tonight But go ahead''
 When we first thought up the scheme ' Loretta continued lone of the gicls sug. gested that it would be an incentive to all of ts to do our best work if there were some sort of prize offered for the finest lot of things brought to the food sale We jumped at the idea"
 "A hand-painted plate is what we need worse than anything else,p said he1 brother. Mora showed me two she ha6 won at her Thursday bridge club wher I passed through the kitchen this morn. ing, and don't want you to fall behind the, cook or. she'll begin to think we aren,j tony enough"

this goxernInenf do noe convincs Ra-l ther is there created the belief that the charge and the removal is unjustiaed. Certainly this government is not dis posed to accept the British statement and the continuance of the consul and the consular agent in the service of the government at other posts makes 1t plain that this government considers them ln- nocent until their guilt has been estab- lished by facts.
 The case is one that attracts more than ordinary attention because of the | manner in which it has been handled.
 There is every reason to believe that with proof submitted this government would have been prompt in recalling men who had> misused their office. but when it has been impossible for fnvesti- gators for this government to find tha. the allegations are true the impression i is gained that British action was toe speedy and unwarranted, and ever ] though it has the right to recall the pR.

IN THE PUBLIC EYE


 Colonel Robert Clowry, who enters up- on his eighty-ifth year today, proudly boasts that he can still send Morse code messages as clearly as he could when he used to send telegrams for Abraham Lin coln at Springfield, H., before the Civil war. For many years Colonel Clowry was connected with the Western Union Telegraph Conpany, serving in every capacity from operator to president and director, and few men have played a more conspicuous part in the develop ment of the telegram business than he. A native of Illinois, he learned telegraphy while still in his teens and was working at the key when the war between the states broke cut. He promptly enlisted, was assigned to the signal corps, and near the close of the conflict was brevetted major and lieu tenant-colonel of volunteers flor merito- rious service and devoted application to duty" Colonel Clowry was one of the organizers of the Old d-Time Telegraphers
 Association.

Stories That Recall Others
Not Digger, But Higher.


 A brook runs near the house of Gen eva, age three, and she is very familiar with the stream. One day she accom- panied Sher parents on motor trip to a town where there was a river. When she returned a relative was quizzing her about the size of that stream, and, pointing to the nearby creek, said:
 "Well, the rivers not much bigger than that, is it?'
 No, not much bigger" Geneva re- piled, "but it is higher"
 Apologized.
 A correspondent who disclaimed- being either pessinist or a reforner recently wrote as follows:
 '"The other day man aY1 his daugh- ter passed through our town on their way to a nearby village They expected to be met at the train by a relative but he was late, so they had to wait for him four or five hours.
