WINDING THE BUSINESS
Of THE PUBLIC

A common retort heard twenty-five
years ago, among people inclined to
be pert, was Mind your own bust
ness" u seemed to be the motto Of
those times. Il represented 4 period
when the good citizen was supposed
to stick strictly to his work, and not
interfere with other people.
But it was discovered that under
that conception Of life. our cities and
towns were not getting things done.
Municipal government was unsatisfac-
tory. There was little force pushing
for progress. It was seen that il
people wanted their communities to 60
ahead, they must stop minding their
own business exclusively, and devote
. little time to mindinE public busi-
ness. The remarkable civic progress
seen in the past ten years shows this
new spirit.

PINCHOT PASSING THE BUCK

Gov. Pinchot of Pennsylvania is an amusin'
cuss He accumulated most of his wealth before
he was born, which, of course, shows some fore
thought for his childrens children, but to the fe
low who has to do his own accumulating, his the
ories do not always measure up on a hard-tack
basis His settlement of the coal strike some
time ago is very much on par with most OF his
achievements From past experiences IN the for
est service we are very much constrained to be-
ieye the settlement of the coal strike was made
pretty much along these lines: To the coal miners
"NoW Just what do you want?" The coal miners
advised him and he remarked very enthusiastica-
y: Bully bully. Just what wanted to knoW!,
Then he turned to the mine operators and asked :
"Just what do you want?" They told him and he
exclaimed Bully, bully; just what | wish to
know" Then Gov. Pinchot added the two togeth-
er and said to the public: I'm delighted to tell
YOU that | have settled the coal strike; all you
now have to do is to pay the price and get all the
coal you want" Wasn't it beautiful! A few dol
lars one way or the other never occurred to Gov.
Pinchot: the people pay the freight and it showed
conclusively that his theory" was correct. The
same theory worked in the forest service, wherein
he had the whole east with him anyway, and, the
east had swiped all in sight from the public do
mainland the west got the eastern reputation
handed to them from old musty records OF great
land and timber steals; why not take the 100 per
cent from the west and just to show them how
generous we can be, give them back 25 per cent of
what we take? 1t will sound good even If we
spend the rs per cent along with few million
appropriated by congress to see that they are
properly regulated. This is no knock on the for
est service as it now exists. Merely to show Pin
chot's ideas of high finance.
Then when Gov. Pnchot passed the Volsteaded
buck up to President Coolidge, it was really re-
freshing to note how quickly Coolidge read his
record and handed the buck back with notations
on it that smoked the famous "buck passer' out
into the open Pinchot has tried to be a cheap
imitation of TEDDY" Roosevelt, but he was
brought up on the wrong side of several millions,
with digestion that runs strongly to- baked
apples.

what is your mammy's name?"

"Why, is she dead 2"

and daddy, how did you get here?"
