There is a vast amount of railroad
construction going on" He might
well have added that this is due
largely to the acton of the Republi-
can Congress which turned the rail
roads back to their private owners
and ended the Democratic government
control policy of neglecting mainte-
nance We are also told that work
ers are benefting from the law re-
stricting immigration, although we
are not told that this law was pass
ed and is continued in force by Re-
publican Congress. Thu Democratic
editor would not give due credit to a
Republican administration.
A further explanation might well
have been given, showing addit;ona
reasons why there are more jobs for
wage-earners. The Republican adj
ministration reduced substantially the
taxes that discourage industry; it
rejected the debt cancellat on scheme
which would have saddled the coun-
try with an additional debt of Sill
900 100000; it adhered to the tradi-
tional policy of avoiding entangling
alliances with Europe; it reduced
rates of interest, thereby encourage
ing enterprise; it helped the farmers
recover from the defat,on program
of the Democratic administration; it
terminated government meddling
with private business.
With unemployment ended and all
lines of business thriving, it is diff
fcult to imagine on what grounds
the Democrats will seek votes in the
November election.

FUTED BY FACTS IN THE
NEWS COLUMNS

Democrats papers are continually
clamOring for a reputation of the
Republican administration, but pub
lish in their news columns statements
that refute claims that the country
is suffering from industrial depres-
sion. In fiaring headlines one pro-
claims that Unemployment in New
York is Almost Thing of the Past"
and in the body of the article informs
the public that "The most deserted
places in New York are the waiting
rooms of the employment agencies"
That is said to be a portion of the
United States where unemployment
always finds its first and last mani
festation. The crowded city lures
the idle. Following the announce
ment above, the Democratic editor
informs his readers that "The reason
is that in most lines there are more
jobs than men and those who are
working are going from one place to
another to find the job that pays the
most"
If these statements were published
in Republican paper, they would be
discredited as political propaganda in
support of the administration, but,
printed by an ardent Democratic ed
itor they cannot be discounted on the
ground of partisan bias. They are
printed by the same paper which, soon
after Harding was inaugurated, was
giving great prominence to reports
of millions of unemployed.
The stories of unemployment were
undoubtedly exaggerated flor politi-
cal effect, the effort being to create
the impression that the Republican
administration was responsible, not
withstanding the administration had
just assumed control of the affairs of
the government. 1t was a fact, how
ever, that there was much unemploy-
ment eighteen months ago, and that
there is practically none now. Of
course, we always have with us some
men who never have job. We
had them even during the wartime
emergency.
In further elucidation of the en-
ployment situation as it exists today,
the Democratic editor tells US that

A TALE OF THE TIMES

Back in 1917, two young men got
jobs. One had position in a war
work plant where he earned $50 a
week. His money went fast. He
would have ten pairs of shoes at a
time, as he saw footwear that pleased
his fancy, and when the first sole
wore down, he would throw them
away without residing, though the
upper was perfectly good. His money
all went in such ways, and he had
nothing laid up when the flush times
passed.
The other young fellow thought the
war work would be very temporary
thing, where he would get no per-
manent start. So he took a job in a
grocery store at reasonable pay and
has gradually worked up since then,
until he is now manager of a fair
sized business for an absent owner,
receiving $32 per week.
That fellow now has $500 in the
bank. The other day his friend, the
$50 a week man, came around, dead
broke, and asked him for the loan of
500. A lot of people will hope that
he did not get it.
That story is typical of hundreds
of thousands Of instances. These
young fellows on high pay, the major
ity of them with no families depend
ent upon them, had the chance of a
life time to get a start. That young
men on 800 a week should have had
several thousands of dollars in the
bank when the flush times passed
by. He could have done it as easily
as not. without denying himself any
necessity. But he could not see it.
He proved his incapacity to take re-
sponsibility, and naturally fellow of
that kind will have pretty hard time
when the pinch comes.
AS the old saying goes, it is not so
much what you earn as what you save
that makes a man successful and as
sures comfort and happiness. There
are plenty of inexpensive pleasures
which young people can enjoy. They
can use the period before they get
married to lay up a reserve that will
make all the difference in the world
later when they have a family de-
pendent upon them.
