EDITORIAL
CONGRESSMAN DALE


The republican voters of the
Second Congressional district Will
have an opportunity at the Sept
cmber primaries to nominate Con
Eressman Porter H. Dale of Is
land Pond to succeed himself IN
the GSth Congress. Col. Dale is as
sure of his election in November
as Of his nomination in September
and in returning to Washington
for the fifth consecutive term the
voters do we'll to thus honor d
4 faithful public servant. Though
one of the smallest states in the
Union Vermont has maintained its
Hprestige in both halls of Congress
by first selecting a good man for
y the office and then keeping him
3there instead of passing the hOnors
around to self-seeking politicians.
My this commendable plan the
/ Congressman and Senator obtain
"seniority rights, which are higE-
\ ly respected by the leaders and OK
4 tremely valuable to the man who
has earned this distinction by long
4 service.
4 Col. Dale's services in Congress
have not been spectacular, but
there is no Congressman who
works longer hours in the day or
gives more attention to the needs
I of his constituents. AS chairman
of the committee of eXpedtures
in the Treasury department he
made a trip to France to investi-
gate the conditions of the soldiers
and has given much time since
then to the after-war activities Of
our government for disabled sol
diers. He has also been a mem
Der of the important committees
of banking and rules and both of
these committees demand not only
time but a wide knowledge of f.
nancial conditions and legislative
procedure.
Col. Dale's recent reply to the
QUESTIONABLE Of the League of
Women Voters shows his progress
sive attitude on many Of the I'M
portant measures that have re-,
Gently been before Congress and
his replies to the many questions
must be exceedingly gratifying to
his supporters of both sexes. His
stand on the soldiers bonus bill is
well known and he reterates his
support of the enforcement of the
Folstead act, while his votes on
the various welfare acts are in the
same line of the views of the lead
crS in social work.
The past year has been a busy
one for the Vermont Congress
man and he has felt that his place
was at his post beneath the big
dome Of the Capitol rather thar
touring the state or visiting his
friends, much as he would have en-
joyed such a trip. His supporters
from the Canadian to the Massa-
chusetts line like this kind OF
faithful public service and they
will make this still further known
at the polls. He has well earned
the nomination and its subsequent
election by long and faithful pub
lie service.

VIXEN one power wants to gain point
for example, in German reparations
another counters with proposal for
some bargain here at the gateway TO
the East.
And that is only one phase of 1t.
There are many more. A rebel Turk
ish leader named Mustapha Kemal
Pasha refuses to be bound by any
Allied treaty which the Sultan's dele
Gates have signed-and with the best
army in Asia Minor back of him de-
fies the European powers.
Then there is the possibility that
this rebel leader will be forced, some
what against his inclinations, into
open alliance with the Russian So
viets. And meantime there is the
danger. for England, France and Italy,
of religious crusades in their Moslem
colonies that turn into crusades for
independence.
Danger Of Secession.
There is the special danger, for
Great Britain, of rebellion on the part
of India's Mohammedans. And there
is the special danger, for the Sultan,
of secessionist movements inside his
own church-such as one led by the
Sheik of Mecca-challenging his au-
thority as Islams Caliph. And back
of all these more immediate issues
looms the potential struggle of Brit
ain versus Russia for Constantinople.
America is far off from all of this
But not far enough to have no stake
in what is happening. All these swift
currents carry economic interests
with them, and our own inevitable
price to pay, in world that goes
10 war.
And all these currents-though
their driving force is further east or
further wcst-meet in one spot and
start swirling. There is one passive
figure whom they ring with trouble.
Tie is the man who prayed today in
Dol'na Bagtche mosque.

Federal aid to education.
Control of child labor.
In addition, there are several meas
ures since requested by President
Harding or cabinet officials under him,
or urged by congressional blocs speak
ing for large sections of the country.
The most important of these con-
Germ:
Constitutional amendment permit
ting the Federal and state governments
to tax securities that are now exempt
from taxation, urged by Secretary of
the Treasury Mellon.
A more elastic system of rural
credits, urged by the farm bloc.
Corrupt Practices Act that would
compel senators and representatives to
make public their expenditures in both
primaries and elections.
Further reclamation of waste lands
in the West, advocated by a larger
section of the farm bloc
Leasing of Muscle Shoals, advocated
by the farm bloc.
The blocs are threatening to work
in force for the measures they are
sponsoring when congress reassembles.
Their first drive is to be directed at
revision of the house rules to make it
impossible for leaders to block legisla-
tion through the constituted Rules
Committee of the House or the Steer
ing Committee in the Republican poll
tical organization in that body.
Members Of the farm bloc, angered
because President Harding vetoed the
bonus, have told colleagues that they
would not defend the Republican Ad-
ministration this fall Instead, they
will rely on what they tried to do to
retain the confidence of constituents
and get reelected.

When Crops Were Really Short.
While the cotton crop and the corn
crop in the Sharon community Is go
ing to be mighty short this fall, 1t
could be q lot worse and really people
haven't great deal 10 worry about,
according to John L. Rainey, popular
Bullock's Creek township citizen.
"Fifty-siX years ago." said Mr.. Rainey,
who was in reminiscent mood the 9TH
er day, I'VE had a short crop sure
enough. ! we'll remember, because 1t
was in 1856 that l started to farming.
1 worked three horses that year and I
made five little measly bales. Of cotton
and a similarly small quantity of corn
and other produce. 1t was q dry year,
and nobody in this section the coun-
try made anything hardly. Right aft
er the war too, when times were sure
enough hard. Climbing up the years
to 1899, recall that the cotton crop
was mighty short that year also, be-
cause of drouth and generally unfavor-
able conditions. Therefore ! say that
while the crop prospect is not so good
people have little to worry about when
some Of the, crop years gone by are re-
called"
Cheaper to Buy Flour.
Ralph Cain, teacher and farmer and
unsuccessful J. candidate for probate
Judge of York county in the August
primary, who isn't at all sore about it,
has q problem on his hands. On eight
acres of land this year Mr.. Cain made
81 bushels Of wheat. He would like to
eat bread of his own raising, but he
can sell the wheat for more money
than it would take to buy a quantity
OF flour equal in amount to what his
own wheat will produce. He is rather
of the opinion that he will continue to
eat -four made from wheat grown in
some other section.

fashion my own idea of Sultan
would have done it, and put me in a
chair. Immediately, with n chamber
lain as interpreter, he began speaking.
He leaned forward as he talked. When
a word wouldn't come when he want
ed it, he reached for it in the air with
a forefinger and q thumb.
What he talked about, l suppose,
was what any sovereign harassed by
half q dozen different difficulties and
under compulsion to make the best Of
q worst that was very bad might have
talked about to q strange reporter.
suggested various political issues in the
Near East. But the Sultan did not
talk politics. The theme of what he
said was that his country and its peo-
Pile had been sadly misrepresented in
the West.
1t was in pursuance of this idea
that lie str ssed the spiritual char
acter of what unity there is in Islam,
as distinguished from any union as q
force in politics. / mentioned India
and Egypt. 1t did not surprise him,
he said, that throughout the Moslem
world there were demonstrations Of
loyalty to the Caliphate-that is, to
the institution OF the Caliph himself
as the. spiritual leader Of a church.
TEMPORAL Affairs Different.
But spiritual and temporal affairs
ought not to be confused, he said.
And SO far as the former were con-
cerned he implied that what the West
calls "fervor" in its own case 1t often
calls "fanaticism" when it is looking
toward the East. Time will demon
stfate that there has been much mis-
representation. And time will exon
crate my people of the many accusa-
tions brought against them," he said.
He talked of his people and their
hopes-.,.reened there in his chamber
of the Dolma Bagtche mosque from
the prayers and troops and trumpets
all about him.
1t was not an inappropriate setting.
II seemed almost right. For around
this passive figure centre many things,
more active and more troublesome
than prayers and troops and trumpcts.
