trouble in the financing as people
have feared"
This position does not seem to
appeal to the ST. Paul, Mimi, Dis
patch QndD. which argues that
there was not enough hardihood
on the part of the advocates to de-
fend the bill on it's merits as
sound piece of financing and with
out danger to the national situa-
ton" And the Milwaukee, Wis,
Journal QndD, rather considers
that there has been too much
worry about the subject. 1t be
lieves that if the senate does not
kill the measure President Hard
ing will and adds significantly
THE taxpayer will have no reason
to squeal, because nothing is bit
ing him, and the congressman can
point with pride to what he tried to
do for the soldier, and it will be
no fair kicking him for what
someone else did" However, the
Butte. Post (Rep.). in this very con-
nection calls attention to the fact
that there is a limit to the peoples
capacity to pay and there is limit
to their endurance"

now, legislation should avoid a
short-sighted curtailment of the
nations defense. The judgment of
disinterested experts should go far
toward determining what size

Tense. Still the. Ann Arbor, Mich,
Times-News, Gnd) seems con-
WINGED that congress is endeavor-
ing to get back to ancient tradi-
tons. Its provisions for military
training for the student army
has its complete endorsement and
the paper continuing says: .'It
seems evident that in cutting the
land forces to a minimum congress
is not losing sight of the need for
proper training Of the vast body
of private citizens from which
must come our main fighting
strength in time of need" The
Salt Lake, Utah, Deseret News
points out that reduced appropria-
lions mean the closing of unneces-
sary army posts and adds: THE
upkeep of these posts makes 4
heavy drain upon the treasury and
therefore upon the taxpayers. Some
of them are quite useless so far
as military necessity or strategic
value is concerned"
Sharp criticism of the entire
plan is enunciated in compre-
hensive review of the situation by
the Knoxville, Tenn, Sentinel Und.
Dem.) which insists that there is
nothing crazier than the craze of
false economy, and the present
congress, while eager and chatting
to spend untold billions at the
bunghole of the government would
save some meager millions by
emasculating the army even
though it endangered the security
of the country To this the Mum
Gle, Ind, Star Qnd. Rep, adds
that the opinion of the military
experts should be permitted to pre-
vail because our military leaders
never have been accused of being
rampant militarists and their ad-
vice will be accepted by the public
in preference to that of a group
which has opposed without rea-
son practically every appropria
ton for the national defense"

WOMAN LAWYER, AFTER THIRTY
YEARS IN PUBLIC LIFE, FINDS HOME
IS WOMAN.S RTGHTFUL SPHERE

Chicago. April s.-"The paths Of
glory lead but to the grave"
An attorney had used the QUOTA
ton as the finishing touches 10 his
argument
To him the phrase was grandilo-
quent, uttered for effect
But there was one In the court
room who heard. and was reused
into peculiar consciousness by the
words.
That person was Mrs. Leonora z.
Meder, also a lawyer.
Days after, the line kept repeat
ing itself.
Decides on Home
And then she asked herselfi
Home or career?"
And the answer was simply:

That's how Chicago has come to
lose its foremost woman politician,
club leader and harrister.

grave. Empty nothingness!
And this decision she made after
80 years of intimate dealing with
the public.
1t came right on the eve when
the women's Democratic organiza-
tons had announced her name as
the candidate for judge at the con-
ing elections.
Success is hers,
She was the woman who had been
public welfare commissioner, and
the first of her sex to sit in an I'LL
nois jury box.
Her practice at law was bringing
in more than a handsome living.
But, NO she said.

Americas National Defense.

Unnecessary scrapping of the
arms of national defense unani-
mously is opposed by the news
papers of the nation regardless OF
political belief
Republican and Democratic edi-
tors alike agree that obligations
growing out of the recent disarm-
ament conference shall be re-
spected.
There seemingly is a growing
indignation expressed over the
congressional suggestion that the
cuts shall be those that will affect
what usually has been termed the
red blood of America"
This sentiment apparently is
Star Ind.), which, after reviewing
the action of the house in dealing
with the several problems, con-
tinues: THE United States would
be rendered ridiculous contending
for a definite ratio in the treaty
and deliberately lowering it in the
application" Further developing
the suggestion, the Norfolk, Va,
Virginian Pilot (Dem) calls at
tention to the fact that, while con-
gress might possible be under a
vague construction given the
states of a military staff, "the
makers of the constitution acted
wisely in vesting the president
with supreme command" 1t ar
gued further that congress should
leave the chief executive free to
use armed forces as his best judg-
ment may dictate"
In the opinion of the Chicago
Daily News "a small standing
army can serve all the nation s
needs in time of peace, but the
nation must be in position rap
idly to increase its defenders in
case of necessity" And it is the
belief of the News. that the issue
now raised gives the war depart
ment "a good chance to bring
about the abolition of all useless
army posts"

1T is unfortunate that Ford can

Wing Journal declares apropos of
the Inauguration. of the five-day

many other editors the gain to the

doubtful, since the reduction il
