Decline of Communism.
Cincinnati Enquirer ]


 There are indications that Communism is running the final stages of it's political course in the old world. IL is weakening, if it is near to dis integraton. IL has lost much of the hold the agencies of government in many countries where 1t swept into power the backwaSh of the war. Wisdom the part of the Entente unselish CO., operation soon can finish the of this economic pestilence
 In country where it spreads it's tentaces has Communism done other than sap the life peo- pie, weaken the international standing of the Govern try dssipate capital dsorganize industry prostitute labor and debauch the public treasury
 In Russia, where il assumed it's worst form it has failed in everything except to retain by force Industry has been crippled. capital stolen and dssipated Twenty millions of the population have starved to death and other millions have been slaugh- tered to make Boshevist holiday In desperaton now the leaders appealing capitastic help from other countries. admitting failure of their theory, but failing to convince the world of their sincerity.
 Italy has repudated Communism by a revolution Of force, il is true, but, nevertheless effectively for the time.
 Switzerland defeated by seven to one a referendum proposal to levy confseatory capital instead or the levy on property and profits, development or the anticaptal dogma of Communism. England did likewise
 Austria has put Communism aside and is engaged ih an earnest effort with the cooperation of outside capital to stabilize her currency rehabiitae her in dustries and balance her budget
 In Germany the Communistic politicians still hold sway, but they have earned for their Government which once stood among the world Powers with un-
 palred credit the worlds contempt for their groye- ls conduct Tn the matter of reparations They are despsed and deed by the industrial leaders of Germany and are growing weaker each day
 everywhere Communism has failed in the supreme test u has had it's trial. It has proven itself a theory with faculty to grasp in helpfI way inc practlcal thlng oI life It has place in the economic CT governmental system It surged up on a wave or worldwide discontent is abating as the world world gets nearer normal, which it assuredly ie, although slowly.

A lot of people think they are charitable just because they are so free with their advice
 There are lot of poor fish in this old world who never manage to get Tn the social swim.
 We guess, at that the fellow who has loved and lost really does not lose as much in the end as the fellow who won.
 A motor ear needs lot of acces- sories, but so does a wife.
 It is getting so a mans children treat him as if he was their husband. Misery may love company. but nothing gives a super stout more sat isfaction than to meet another wom- an whc weighs more than she does.
 You not only become wfnded in the pursuit of happiness. but you usually go broke in the bargain
 We are convinced that a wife's platinum wrist watch isn't any bet ter than she is at keeping track of time.
 A physician declares silk stockings are very healthful, but just re- member the girls arc wearing them in spite of this.
 There are a lot of men who do not mind lending their influence to a cause, but it is different when you ask them to give their money to it. Girls are able to camouflage their growing bobbed hair with a net but the fellow who shaved off his beard and is letting 1t grow again has tc ! grin and bear it.
 l Blessings may come in disguise but we always are able to recognizs trouble when it makes its appear ance.

THE GRANT MEMORIAL.

The Grant fish memorial introduced in the Legis- lature Tuesday takes far higher ground than that occupied by Delegate Sutherland in his opposition to the fish reserves created by the proclamation of President Harding Delegate Sutherands attempt 10 make it appear that there has been collision be- tween the Fish Trust (always capital etters) and the Bureau of Fisheries and Department of Com meree fer the purpose of robbing the fishermen for the benefit Cf The Interests Capital letters agan) has been properly characterized by Assistant Secretary Huston of the DcparmeEt of Commerce as buncombe. The attack the motives of the Department of Com merce-and MT. Huston assumes responsibility for the resevec-is simply political gesture. But there is in the Grant memorial. It contains protest Ggaingt the rc,eTyc sys.em of government, which it characterizes system for substituting arbitrary executive rules for enacted under Constu- tona authority.
 The memorial reces:
 We have been taught to believe, and
 do believe, that all the law-making power of
 the Federal Government has been by the
 Constitution conhdcd in Congress.
 IL is astounding fer patriotic citizens of
 republic to contemplate that whenever the
 Chief Executive is dissatisfied with the laws
 enacted by the legislative branch of the
 ernment. with the failure of that branch
 to amend these laws in such manner the
 President may desire. he may authorize
 office to substitute arbitrary rules of conduct
 in place of statutes enacted under Constitu-
 ucnal powers. A government of a Is essentially government by snstead
 of by law and places the individual fortunes
 at the mercy Of official whim.
 This declaration strikes at every in the country except those reserved for the direct of the National Government. It applies the forest, oii ecal, bird and other reservations as well as the fish reserves It attacks directly the growing policy of substituting executive action for legislative enact ment-and, h could have been added, for self gov ornmont Therefore it is essentially an attack on policies for which the late President Theodore Roose- welt waH more directly responsible than any one else He and the sPinchotte conseryationists did more ahan all others to fasten this method of procedure on the country. Assistant Secretary Huston spoke by the card when lie used the name of Roosevelt as the author of precedents for the action President Harding in regard Alaska fish
 The Empire agrees that the reservation system Is destructive Of local self government and wrong in principle IL does not agree. however that the fish reserves in Alaska objectionable as are many of the ether oserves that have been created They at least bear executive explanation that they were created to meet emergency that requires immed- fate action and that it is the purpose to keen them in existence longer than necessary to secure legislation from Congress The Roosevelt reservation system was put. forth additional and permanent character of government in the country
