does say: "We think it safe to say that such procedure must, in every in stance and whatever the conditions, have behind it the moral sanction of the law-abiding and intelligent ele- ments of the people if it is to succeed in it's purposes; if it is not, indeed, to make the remedy more dangerous than the disease. And that sanction it car not have unless, in the opinion of such elements, the circumstances not only justify but demand it. Executives il this country having the power to de- clare martial law have always been reluctant to use it, realizing that it Is repugnant to the American principles of civil liberty and warranted only in cases of great, immediate and obvioIs public peril, commanding the support of respectable public opinion for mill tary action"
 It appears that the press of the na- tion, while standingtuncompromisingly against mob violence and night out rages, is equally opposed to usurpa- tion of authority or the transgression of constitutional rights by those who seek to enforce the laws.

lating the law. Motor speeders did not succeed in reducing the census figures with their usual thoughtless- ness, and nobody skipped out to es- cape an enterprising bill collector.
 It is an Extraordinary situation even in a community from which one would expect the ideal conditions suggestive of it's name. The uniqueness of the situation probably accounts for the publicity it received. Commonplace things of life have little news value. People prefer to read about bizarre or startling occurrences. This condition in Happy Valley is one of them. These are strenuous times when it is inter esting to know that any community is getting back to normal. Would that the condition were highly contagious It will be an ideal situation when news collectors can report that things are moving smoothly, if they move at all, instead of having to announce accu- mutations of jars, jealousies and iaZZeS.

baggage systems is~the marriage GUS tom. For centuries Turkey has coun- tenanced polygamy, among those who could afford it. It was as firmly fixed in that country as official graft. Although Mustapha Renal Pasha, one of the strongest national figures that Turkey ever has had, who personally belongs to the one-wife school of so- cial uplift, has defeated five different bills providing for the restoration of legalized polygamy by the Turkish national assembly, the issue is still alive and kicking, and many adherents cling to it on economic grounds. There are 698,000 more women than men in Turkey. The claim is made that men who are able to support several or numerous wives should be permitted to do so. Thus legislative enactment clashes with long established custom and religious authority.
 Without dwelling on Biblical his tory and numerous Oriental customs under which polygamy rests on re- ligious or national bases, it is recalled that not until 1882 did the Edmunds law put check on polygamy among the Mormons who long regarded the custom as divine institution. It was eight years later that the Mormon church issued it's pronunciamento against the practice under stress of Illegal authority. Even in this country of boasted civilization polygamy was legally tolerated for more than forty years under the protection of religious belief. What Turkey will do under the influence of its new nationalism, more or less dominated by Western civilization, remains to be seen. But forms and ceremonies attached to re- ligious systems and customs in the Orient are strongly entrenched and not easy to eradicate.
