val Affairs, one of the great COM

held for many years by Hon. Eugene
Hale. father of Senator Frederick
Hale.
There will be many committee
changes as the result of the recent
elections in which many leading Re-
publican senators failed Of re-elec-
ton. Senator Hale is at present the
fourth Republican member of the
Senate committee on Naval Affairs
and his advancement to this import
ant craftsmanship at the commenc :
ment of his second term in the Sen

same time very gratifying to Maine
PEOPLE and the many friends Of the
Senator.
Senator Carroll Page would have
been the Senate chairman of the Ma
val Affairs committee next session
but he declined to be candidate for
reelection. 1t was then expected
that the honor would go to Senator
Foindexter but he was defeated at
the polls. Senator Lodge is the next
ranking Republican member but he is
chairman OF the Senate commit
tee on Foreign Affairs and according
to Senate rules no senator can be
chairman OF two important commit
tees at the same time which leaves
the appointment for Senator Hale.
for there is no doubt but Senator
Lodge will prefer to hold the chair
n1anship of the committee on Foreign
Affairs.

THE TOO coNFIDINo

Some one has said that sucker is
horn every minute, and the readiness
with which worthless securities are
sold to confiding people makes one
believe it,
However, it is possible to speak too
oontemptuously of the folks who are
commonly called "casy marks" or
suckers" Usually they are fine and
generous hearted people. If everyone
was as kind and frierdly as they are.
the world would be a better place to
live in. They imagine that everyone
is as good as they are, and they pay
the penalty of too much trustfulness-
-Houlton Times.
Not all who become victims are Of
this generous, confiding class; some
are those who are greedy but short
sighted, who have no computations
how the gain is accomplished pro-
vided they secure some of it for
themselves.
There is hope. for instance, for such
,os the Swede newly landed in New
, York the other day with hard earn
ings in his belt who paid a slick
person he met on the trolley 500 for
the car they were riding in. When
he attempted to take possession he
met up" with enlightenment which
he probably won't forget.
How may the education of such
PEOPLE be accomplished without ex-
acting as tuition the hard earnings
OF a lifetime? How may the hard
working man who has no opportunity
to inform himself respecting the
value Of securities avoid making I'M
wise investments?
1t is not altogether easy to throw
absolute protection about such
would-be investors Their good sense
should tell them, however, that the
reputable banker has opportunity to
know somewhat of the securities be-
ing offered to the public. though too
often he cannot know all. AT least
one would not be overcautious to ask
his opinion before buying. All those
who have money to invest would be
we'll advised to get all the informa-
ton possible and ever tor keep in
mind that the get-rich- quick scheme
is something for them to let abso-
lutely alone: that high rates of in
terest often indicate that investors
regard them as somewhat risky. The
inexperienced person is not obliged
10 be hasty in making investments.
Our Maine banks have an excellent
record for guarding we'll the deposits
in their keeping.

sponded and took the hand we ex-
tended.
Will they not listen again to us if
we meet them with equal frankness
with sensible proposals? Is there
any one among them all Indifferent to
the manner in which we may make
use of our economic power, indiffer-
ent to our friendly relations with our
neighbors of the new world that are
sharers with us in tremendous
economic power?
A mighty instrum antality has been
placed in our keeping by the course
of events. If we abuse the trust,
make it an engine of oppression or
destruction, we lose it and it were
better not to have had it. If we use
it with wisdom in full recognition of
our responsibility to see that it shall
be of service to the world we may
not, as some of the over-optimistic
hope, be able to put an end to war,
hut we will go long way on the
road which leads to that.
Can this country rise to the occa-
sion and serve the world as the adj
mnistrator of economic imperial
ism?

Under the new Pinchot regime in
Pennsylvania the highway affairs are
undergoing a thorough investigation
The two chief evils discovered are:
allowing county superintendents Of
maintenance to act as paymasters
and the low grade of men made
county superintendent because Of
POLITICAL pull. The investigators ask
for law to prohibit political activity
among the employees Of the highway
department. And human nature in
Pennsylvania isn't much different
from what it is in Maine, but Maine
seems to have done better with tho
material at her disposal.

DEMOCRATIC PARTY LAPSlNG

One need not be the seventh son Of
i seventh son to predict, with at
least a fair degree of confidence. that
the day will come when it will be
! remembered in President Harding's
favor that he approved government
aid for an American merchant
marine. BY the same token it should
be remembered to the disfavor of
those who are opposing the measure.
A valid criticism, that for many
years lay at the door of the Demo-
cratic party in this country. was that
il was unable to be constructive. In
its political battles it was aptly lik-
cned to the animal that lies on its
back and scratches its antagonist.
Nor were the leaders altogether UNI
conscious of the fitness of the COM
parson.
With the aid Of the Republican
party, which in war times gave of its
effort ungrudgingly. the Democratic
rarty laid claim to constructive abil-
ity. This claim was materially weak
ened by its utter failure in the years
following the armistice to make ade-
quate provision for returning to
peace footing.
The Shipping Board is a hand
down from that time The welfare
of the country is so intimately con-
corned with the proper disposition
Of such problems as to warrant or
rather demand the effort of all
political parties in securing a solu-
/ ton. To such a demand the Demo-
cratic party appears disposed to re-
fuse to respond. 1t is lapsing into
its old slough of negation. content to
criticise and incompetent to help.
This might logically be expected so

ground that the money s.ould he
used to pay soldiers bonus. This
attitude ignores the fact that the aid

OF at least twenty millions 4 year.
that it would in part serve to provide
the money wherewith the bonus
might be paid. which was more than
the Pat Harrisons in Congress were
able to do. The President told them
he would approve the bonus if they
would find the money, and this they
failed to co.
The Pat Harrison policy, wholly
lacking in constructive possibilities.
is bound to fail in every way except
as forced draught to brighten the
embers OF discomfort. Those who are
wishing solely to see the Democratic
party discredited are glad to see it
assume that attitude. Well-wishers
of the country. however, those who
think first of = the country's welfare,
will deeply regret it.
