YOUR CAPITAL

IF YOU are drawing a thousand dol

yearly income means that your capital

Double your salary and you double
your capital. Quadruple. your. $1,000

COY. RITCmnE OF maryland

The appearance of Governor
Albert c. Richie OF Maryland,to
day, at the annual luncheon of
the Delmarvia Press Association
and the Maryland Press Associa-
ton at H0tel du Pont, recalls to
mind an administration of affairs
in our sister State of Maryland,
under his direction, that is dis
tiDctly creditable, and makes
record OF which the State may
well be proud.
Soon after his election Cover
nor Richie announced a program
which meant general reorgani-
cation OF the entire State govern
ment, the elimination of various
bureaus and commissions. the
combined result of which aimed
to produce more efficient. and
intelligent administration of az
fairs and substantial saving TO
the State in the cost of govern
ment. A bill providing for fewer
elections was one of the COVER
nor's ideas. II was an ambitious
program and even the political
opponents of the governor
agreed that it would be a re-
markable achievement if carried
out.
The result OF IL all has been
that for the first time in many
years present indications point to
Governor Ritchie's denomination
for another term. which is some
thing entirely new in the history
of Maryland politics. Governors
in Maryland have rarely been ac-
corded reelection, and while
many things may happen between
now and the primaries. it is
noticeable fact that thus far no
one has come out openly and ex-
pressed a desire for the nominal
ton.
With the record of the present
administration the logical thing to
happen is 10 have Governor Richie
continue in office for another
term as Maryland's chief execu-
tive. II is generally believed this
is what will come to pass.

Something to |
Think AbOut
THE WHISPERERS

Tn GOING our beaten round of life,
most of US at some time of our ex-
stence turn from our duteous path to
seek the darkened corners of the whis-
pering gallery. where we may converse
beneath our breath with those of our
intimates who, like ourselves, have
itching ears craving solace from gos-
sip.
The more scandalous and salacious
the twaddle, the more deeply colored
It is with scarlet, the better do we en-
Joy rolling it over our tongues and ex-
tracing from 1t the poisonous sweets.
As no language under heaven is for
hidden in the whispering gallery, the
atmosphere pervading it is putrid, sGg-
gestive of mildew and decay.
1t is in the whispering gallery that
character is blackened.
Unruly tongues babble without re-
straint, darling TO and fro as once did
the forked tongue of the serpent that
iured Eve TO eat the forbidden apple.
1t is here that the truth is seldom
and exactly uttered. To be just, even
in the slightest degree, would conflict
with the delightful pleasantries of the
old-time meeting-place, constantly
growing in popularity with the growth
Of mankind.
No one who habitually frequents the
whispering gallery can be true to ones
own heart or to ones friends.
And Ii is this falsity to self and to
friends, this wanton disregard of the
ennobling things. which is causing fric
ton in the world and slowly undermine
ing our individual and civic content.
Yet we go on from day TO day with
sullied tongues and minds without
pauslng to consider on how precarious
base we are posing, grinning false
smiles, practicing deception and SIAN
dering our dearest associates.
It is not probable in our human
weakness that we shall ever be fairly
just to one another, or follow even in
a small way the teachings of the Gold
en- Rule, but we can to some extent i'm
prove ourselves and let into our hearts
more sunshine and substantial life-giv-
ing happiness by speaking no evil and
turning our backs upon the whispering
gallery, resolving no more to darken its
door, or court companionship with
mischievous meddlers and busybodies.
Let MS make start in this direc-
ton today and hold fast to the good
purpose unt!l tbe cnd of life.

If AMERICA WERE IN

The European crisis precipitated by
the trouble between Italy and Greece

tivity on the part of League OF Ma

The burden of their propaganda now
is TO the effect that if the United
States had been nj the league the
Italian-Grecian trouble would not
have arisen: and If we were in the
league now the league would be able
to make these two nations speedily
come to peaceful adjustment OF their
differences.
The test OF such propaganda is a
statement of facts.
The kingdom Of; Albania was dis
membered over its protest by the
European powers at Paris. After the
eLague OF Nations was formed the
AIbanians appealed to that body TO
restore to them their country in its
territorial integrity. The league, con-
trolled by the big powers. refused TO
even consider this appeal! Albania
then went TO war in futile effort
to regain its territorial integrity. II
was defeated. Following this there
was continual dispute among the ma
tlcns which had dismemhered Albania
and divided her territory among them.

their possessions grabbed from this

To settle this dispute and fix the
boundaries. a subsidiary body OF the

This commission was at work on

Samuel Gompers may occasionally
fall down as labor leader, but never
as Democratic politician. His
sneering comment upon President
Harding's effort to bring about the
eight-hour day in industry and his
refusal to recognize that service to
labor when performed by Republican
president, is followed by the public
declaration in connection with the
anthracite strike that there has been
an increase in the cost of living since
1920. The Department of Labor's
statistics show that since 1920 there
has been a decline in living costs
from the index figure of 216.5 to that
of 1897. or about 90 per cent And
no part of that decrease is the result
of decreased pay for labor, the lar

piled with by certain time, Greece
did not comply with the demands.
Italy fulfilled her threats. Greece
appealed to the League Of Nations.
There the matter, rests.
What one of the above series of
events would have not transpired had
America been member of the League
OF Nations? Common sense answers
the question. Americas membership
in the league would not have prevent
ed any of the above happenings, so
that phase of the internationalist pro-
paganda may be dismissed as too alb
surd for serious consideration.
What of the argument that If Amer
lea were now in the league the trou-
BILE would be Immediately settled?
Without going into the merits of the
claims of either Greece of Italy, the
fact stands that Italy has denied the
jurisdiction of the League of Nations
to act in the matter. Would member
ship of America in the league change
Italy's attitude? The argument of the
international propagandists in this
country is that were America in the
league we would make Italy Climb
down." acknowledge jurisdiction OF
the league and abide by its decision.
There is the situation in nutshell.
America is desired in the league for
the. purpose of coercing European
powers into obeying the wishes Of
the league.
To coerce nation means to use
force. You don't coerce people by
soft wordssor calm logic or resound-
ing oratory. Coercion means the use
of force-bruta force, physical force,
armed force.
Mr.. Dempsey coerced Mr.. Firpo a
few days ago for the gate receipts
From 1861 to 1865 the North coerced
the South into remaining in the Union
Germany attempted TO ooerce Bel
gium and France in 1914.
The success OF the League of Ma
ticns depends upon military and naval
force to enforce its decisions. "The
heart OF the covenant" is based on
the use OF armed force.
America is wanted in the leagIe in
order to furnish the armsd force
military or naval. or both-and money
to finance such operations.
That is what membership in the
League of Nations means TO the un-
tied States. That is what the msm-
bership of America in the League of
Nations means to Europe-a reser-
voir of blood and treasure to be
squandered at their dictation.
That is why the people Of the un-
tied States are net going TO join the
League of Nations. directly or indir-
ectly, or any other organization which
would drag us into the political en-
tanglements Of Europe.
