WASHINGTON. Feb. T-President
Harding turns the policy of America
backbone people will say forward-to
the power Of moral rather than physi-
cal force.
This change - and Mr.. Harding
avowed it proudly in the concluding
speech of the arms conference-mcans
that henceforth the argument that the
best way To prevent war is to prepare
for it. with military and naval strength,
will be abandoned and The Republican
administration of toda,-. including the
congress o. tomorrow. will revert To the
days before 1917 when reliance on moral
Justice was misunderstood pacihSm,
when the phrase toe proud to fight UNI
fortunately conveyed to war-impassloHed
minds an impression of physical timidty.

PrOfteering

Similarly, the public idea that most
of the high prices are due to proti-
teering would hardly be borne out ny
lnoye nguIess When all profits COM
bined Including those of the manu-
facturer, the wholesaler and the re-
.tailer-amount to only 17%o OF the
final cost of the article, even dras-
tic reduction in profits could hardly
make any large difference in the I'LL
innate price.
1t may be found therefore that one
of the most potent factors in reducine
prices is the attitude of the consumer
If he would buy in large quantities
| if he would not insist upon attractive
packages; if he would be content with
cash and carry" system instead OF
delivery to his door-inshort, if he
would not demand such large
amount of service in connection with
| his purchases, it would probably be
| found that a very considerable re-
duction in price would eneyitably
! come about.

The High Cost OF Government

CThe Breeders GaZette)
Next in Importance to complete de-
flation of war wages in all lines of in
dustry and def1ation of railway freights
comes def1ation of public expenditures.
For the last twenty years there has
been a perfect mania for creating new
offices, new boards, new commissions,
new bureaus, until we see today the
hand of government-and in this coun-
try that means usually the hand OF
the professional politician-in nearly
everybody's business and everybody's
pocket to an extent that seriously re-
presses new enterprise and stiles in
dividual initiative.
An amusing and of course over
drawn picture Of the situation as it
affects even purely agricultural dis
tricts appears in a copy of typical
country newspaper published in Kan
sas-the Paola Spirit for December
23. 1t follows:
Fate seems to have made the year
1921 extravaganza in its trials, sieges
besetments, demands, commands, tax
alton, robberies, bankruptcies, thefts,
idiphtheria, smallpox, etc. The average
home has been overrun with So!ici-
tors, beggars, governm ent officers,
state officials, inquisitors, promoters
peddlers and busybodys, A specia1
car of the state health board, i'll
charge of a richly gowned and jeweled
young woman, came to town not long
ago and mothers were commanded to
hurry to the depot and to take in
structions as how to raise their babies;
then came a government nurse, an
other unmarried lady, weighing the
babies and instructing the mothers
the sort of babies they must give birth
to hereafter or quit the business; and
now the farmers are notified that they
must pay specialist from one of our
higher institutions of learning to tell
them how to feed the hogs.
Safe to say there are in Miami
County today 500 officials, national,
state county, township, city, and dis
trict, telling the people what they
must do and what they can't do; spy
ing into their homes, their private ac-
counts, their methods of life, layins
down the law as to what they shall
eat, drink, wear, buy, or spend; where
they shall go, and when; to bare their

'Chuckles Of 1922 Lires

Sho,o Arrires for Summer
Run at Big Burlesquc House

The Columbia Theater, after a long
season Of transient burlesQue shows,
yesterday became the home of more
or less permanent tenant, "Chucklcs
of 1922 with Bobby Clark and Paul
Mccullough. 1t can be broadcast
here and now that this offering, the
twelfth annual summer production at
the Columbia, is a brisk and entertain
ing affair and should keep the theater's
hat check boys on the jump until long
after the Broadway pavements have
begun to sizzle under the summer heat.
The phrase, "a good summer show"
has been trotted out on numerous oc1
casions when there was an apparent
desire to be little easy on some new
production. "Chuckles Of 1922" as re-
vealed at the Columbia yesterday, can
also be described as good summer
show, but 1t should be added that it
would be equally as good next fall.
Jean Bedini's production revealed
hard working cast in support Of Clark
chorus, several excellent specialties
and a flock of new costumes that
seemed as immaculate as Civic Virtue
itself.

The Trap" II Nemesis Film. al,
Central; "Too Much Bust
ness al the Capitol
By Harriette Underhill

A picture called "The Trap" with
! Lou CLANCY as the star. is at the Cen
trail Theater this week. Stories about
simple souls who become fends living
with but one purpose in life--revenge--
never interest US very much, probably
because we do not understand them.
We never have been able to stav mad
at anybody for longer period than
twelve hours, and how can people re-
member for years that they have a
grievance and regulate their lives so
that they will some time in the distant
future have their victims in their
power? 1t seems such waste of
time and energy, and not especially
thrilling in the telling
In "The Trap" Lou CLANCY is a
French Canadian trapper. and he also
owns a mine left to him by his father
A man named Benson comes from the
United States and steals Gaspard's
mine and also his sweetheart
The program say s that "Gaspard
changes from a carefree, hospitable,
peaceable citizen into crafty, fanat-
woke the law, he takes the law into
his own hands"
You've really no idea how disagree
able young Canadian trapper can be
when he gives up all other pursuits
and sets his mind to it, The lisping
of baby lips, bod loves flowers" and "Is
90 tross man." changes him back again,
however. and after capturing q wolf and
planning to have it eat up his hated
enemy he rieked his own life to leap
into the pen and kill the animal.
The story teaches that if you are
q kind hearted, lovable person you
needn't try to become villain, because
you can't do it. They are born. not
selfmade. Mr.. CLANCY gives an ex-
cellent performance.
Supporting Mr. CLANCY are Alan
Hale. Dagmar Godowsky. Spottis-
woode Aiken. Herbert Standing and
Frank Campeau.

was directed by Robert Thornby.
