Errors of A. B. See.

Brooklyn, which had not had
literary shock since PAT McCARBEN
used the word "phlebotomy" in his
debate with TIM WOODRUFF, now
staggers under the assault made by
A. B. SEE on women's colleges. Mr..
SEE says he would burn them all if he
could. He does not like the educa-
tion they give. He, If he had his
way, would educate girls to quit
cigarettes and slang, stop swagger-
ing, give up their bold and brazen,
manners, their paint and their pow
der and their lipsticks and their
high heeled Shoes" lie would have
them cease to dress indecently."
Mr.. SEE complains that college
graduates cannot write a legible
hand, cannot use English properly,
cannot spell. They have their
brains twisted" he says, "by study
ing psychology, logic and philoso-
ply" He advocates taking them out
Of college and putting them at hard
manual labor for a year. These
slams at women's colleges and their
students were forthcoming when
Adelphl College asked Mr.. A. p. SEE
whose very name suggests education
in the rough, to contribute toward
its new buildings.
1t is plain that A. B. SEE does
know q b about girls. particularly
college girls. lie is reciting a lot
OF superstitions about them, like a
small boy who is informing another
small boy that he will catch warts
from handling a toad. When any
body like Mr.. SEE tells you that girls
are bold and brazen and painted,
that their heels are too high and
their heads too hollow, put him down
as a ioykiller. Take him out in the
sunlight and show him a couple OF
thousand girls. Brooklyn swarms
with them, all beautiful, demure and
intelligent
Mr.. SEE, who builds elevators,
should put safety clutch on his
temper and not let II slip again into
the cellar OF violent exaggeration.

The Irish Constitution.

The first subject treated in King
GEoRGE's speech to Parliament is the
legislation that is necessary to COM
plete the establishment of the Irish
Free State. The British Parliament
must give effect to the Free State
Constitution, which has already been
passed by the Irish Parliament, or
it will lapse automatically on Decem-
ber s, the first anniversary OF the
Lloyd George treaty.
IL would be a great mistake II, as
some of the London correspondents
think, Ulster Unionlsts and English
die hards should block the Irish Con-
stitution or so amend It that the
Irish Parliament could not accept It.
1t would be a disappointment to all,
in the British Isles or outside them,
who have viewed the settlement of
the Irish question as one of the great
est political victories of the age.
To throw back the Irish problem
into the pit OF bloodshed and hatred
would be a bitter thing for Ireland,
for England, for the whole British
Empire. II would be an error which
the Conservatives could not long
survive.
The New York herald., 1922-11-24
Compulsory Thrift.

A number Of associated public util-
ity companies in northern Kansas
have adopted a rule requiring all
their employees, from heads OF de-
partmeuts down TO day laborers, TO
save 10 per cent. of their salaries.
They may apply their economies TO
the purchase Of house or they may
invest them. But save they must
otherwise the associated corporations
will not retain them on the payroll
There is no pretense Of philan-
thropc purpose I'M this thrift rule.
The purpose of the corporations IS
frankly selfs' 1t is their method,
based on experience and observation,
Of getting efficient and reliable work
Ing forces. They reason that the en-
ployee who has demonstrated self-re-
straint and forethought enough TO
manage his personal finances success
fully is valuable to the concern he
works for. IL Is evident that he has
character and serious purpose IN
life. Thrift is IN itself a character

Beer Taxes and the Bonus.

There is no sound reason and it is
not good legislative procedure TO tie
the bonus issue and the prohibition
issue up in one Congress bundle.
This is what is done when new Con-
gress bills provide, as they do, for
legalizing light wines and beer un-
der the Eighteenth Amendment and
at the same time for heavy tax on
their sale, the proceeds to be used
In payment of soldier bonus.
The issues involved in these meas
ures thus dovetailed in Congress are
separate and distinct. The prohibit
tion question is as clearly one eXS
plicit thing as the bonus question is
one explicit thing. They should not
be joined together; they should be
kept apart.
If Congress wants to take up the
matter of the sale of light wines and
beer and If the American voters want
to take UP the matter, it should be
taken up as a thing Of itself for
treatment py lISei1.
If Congress wants to take up the
matter of a bonus and If the Ameri-
can voters want to take up the mat
ter, 1t should be taken up as thing
Of itself for treatment by itself.
If Congress should vote and the
President should accept a bonus
,,aa.,ra o,,5 if Co,1raes aJ,ovId r-ofa
and the President should accept
law for the sale Of light wines and
beer, 1t would be in order for Con-
gress, the taxing power and the APP
propriating power, to enact that the
bonus should be paid out of taxes on
light wines and beer, as it would be
i'll order for Congress to enact, If 1t
saw fit, that the bonus, after becom-
ing legal fact, should be paid out
of the proceeds Of a general sales tax
or any other tax.
But as there is no relationship be-
tween a bonus and prohibition, as
there can be no natural relationship
between them, they ought not to
stand or fall together, either in Con-
gress or at the polls; they ought not
to beNsettled together, either in Con-
gress or at the polls. They should
be treated separately, each on It's
merits, each standing or falling sep
arately, as the vote Of Congress de-
cides or as the vote of the country
decides.
