The Pneumonia Month.

March is a typical pneumonia mon

mortality for the disease. After long
hard winter, she system loses much

careless. When every cold, no matter
how slight, is given prompt and in

danger OF pneumonia. 1t should be
borne in mind that pneumonia is a
germ disease and breeds in the throat
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is an

cold but prevents its resulting m

Washington, March 1.-THE OFF,

amounting to over 20 per cent above
the sales OF last year. That is given

Bookings OF steel casting in Janu-

new high record at 5S5 million gallons,
while stocks of gasoline at the end
of the year amounted to 1888 million
gallons, the highest on record except
for April, 1922. Production OF gas
and fuel oil also made a new high
record in December. The advance in

Porto Rico's New Governor
Judge Horace NJ. Towner, the new

was unfortunate in the last governor

reelected last fall and gives up two
years OF service in congress to take

World Court Plan.

Evidently the administration had
carefully thought out its world court
plan before it was given to the SEN
ate. That there will be no turning
back is indicated by the support that
is being given President Harding and
Secretary Hughes by aggressive lead
ers in the senate. The position of men
like Senators Borah, Johnson, McCor-
mick and Brandegee, has caused a lot
OF speculation, and the concensus OF
opinion is that these men will fall in
line with their party if they can be
convinced that the court will exercise
purely judicial functions and in no
way take up political matters. This
sounds well enough for home con-
sumption, but senators and others IA
miliar with international matters know
that the Europeans are unable to dis
tinguish between judicial and "po-
litical' questions-which all look alike
to them.
The principal trouble with President
Harding's suggestion, from the angle

PUBLIC NOT CONSULTED

What will be the paramount issue"
in the next presidential race? A strang-
er in Our midst, considering the PROBES
sedly democratic nature of the United
States, might think this question the
equivalent OF another, namely: What arc
the wishes of the American people? But,
unfortunately he would be in error--,in-
less politics in this country should TN
dergo a radical change between now and
the beginning of the next national con-
test.
To date, the Republicans have had lit
tie, if anything at all, to say about is
sues fol- 1924. But veteran politicians on
the Democratic side have already begun
to issue statements designed to shape the
issues. They may say that they are
anticipating popular demand; politicians
usually make that claim. Possibly the
people don't know their own minds:
this is the only explanation that could
logically be offered in behalf of those
politicians who are asserting that the
League OF Nations will be the pivotal
issue of the forthcoming campaign.
However, the Democratic politicians
are by no means in perfect agreement
Joseph p. Tumulty. who served Presi-
dent Wilson as private secretary, and
MIR. Cox, the defeated Democratic candi-
date in the last election. declare that
the league was "crucified' in an "rra-
tional' campaign and should therefore
be revived and "dispassionatcly' con-
sidered. Both of them, according to re-
cent news reports, profess to believe that
former President Wilson will exert a
mighty influence in the next election.
Just where they get such ideas is not
difficult Question--if one knows any
thing about politics and human nature.
They are giving voice to their own dis
appointment. Either that, or the Ameri-
can people have told themselves less
than they have confided to such politi-
cal overseers as James Cox and Joseph
Tumulty.
But the CoXes and Tumultys are not
the only conspicuous Democrats who
have been talking about political issues
tor the next campaign. Senator Oscar
Underwood and former Secretary OF the
Treasury McAdoo have said thing or
two-probably by way of saving their
party from another ignominous embar-
rassment. Senator Underwood and Mr.
McAdoo, both OF whom are and long
have been regarded as presidential tim
Der, and not only by others, are re.
ported in recent dispatches to have ex.
pressed the conviction that the para.
mount issues in the 1924 contest viii
pertain to taxes and the railroads.

United States, as quoted by the AS
ISOLATED Press:
81 would like to see America join
the league, but am Just as strong an
advocate of Germany's entrance. In my
opinion. Germany could be admitted it
she applied. / also would be glad to
see Russia come in. If she applied
properly she would be admitted, l am
certain"
Apparently Lord Robert Cecil does not
think that America is very particular
about the company she keeps. One
might think that even Messrs. Cox and
Tumulty, as anxious as they are to
salve the wound of political defeat, would
balk at having unregenerate Soviet Rus
sia as conference.-the mate for Amer
lea. At least that thought would be
creditable TO Messrs. Cox and Tumuity.
The inference invited by Lord Roberts
statement concerning Germany's and
Russis's eligibility to league membership
is that the institution that was ostensibly
created to abolish war is in a worse
plight than indicated even by actual
adverse developments which it has been
powerless to prevent. If the league was
what it was professedly designed to be,
its membership requirements would be
severely eXacting. Instead OF having
to beg or even to solicit non-members
to come in, it would spend no little OF
its time considering voluntary, eager
applications of those nations that were
outside the fold.
Russia, under its present form Of So
called government, is almost universally
regarded as an outlaw nation. The
Soviet regime has not been recognized
by the great powers. Its philosophy Of
governmental it may be called that
is abominable to democratic peoples
the world over.
AS for Germany, she has certain obi
cations to meet before she can be a
fit member of any body devoted to the
task Of preserving the worlds peace and
promoting the welfare of mankind. al
belt her government at least in form,
is acceptable to the civilized nations. In
short, she would not be competent to
give counsel to the nations which she
has wronged and to which she has not
yet made amends.
Yet Lord Robert Cecil, foremost
British exponent of the league" as the
press dispatch reporting his arrival in
this country characterizes him, would
gladly receive both Germany and Rus
STA, along with America, as members
of that institution. In fact, he said that
he was lust as strong an advocate" OF
Germany's as of Americas entrance
All of which makes good campaign |
material for the Coxcs and Tumultys-
if one doesn't care what one SAYS.

A RIDDLE IN MORALITY

AS general rule. person who mis-
appropriates the possessions of others is
so selfish that he is not concerned about
the hurtful consequences of his act OK
cept in so far as they may be visited
upon himself. But now and then an
apparent exception comes into evidence,
and the rules by which human character
and conduct are normally judged seem
to be utterly smashed.
A case of the latter description is in
dicated by dispatch from Missouri
which recounts the fate of a man who
was presumably the cause of shortage
of nearly half million dollars in the
accounts of financial institution in that
state. Not only does this case seem to
present remarkable exception to the
general rules for judging mans character
by their wrongful treatment of others,
but one feature of it suggests a per-
picking moral question.
The assumption that this man whiting
ly misappropriated money entrusted to
the institution of which he was an Of
fetal is strengthened by the fact that
following the discovery of the enormous
shortage he took his own life An
important circumstance was that his life
was insured in a sum exceeding the
amount of the shortage.
Dispatches reporting the suicide create
the impression that it was committed for
the purpose of saving the depositors
from loss. But this may remain an Tin
answered question, it being possible, of
course, that the man chose to end his
life, not to make amends to those whom
he had wronged, but to avoid punish
ment.
But If he did destroy himself to make
his insurance money available to the de-
positors who had been bereft of their
savings through his misconduct, how
should his character be appraised? What
standard of judgment would be the right
one?
1t is wrong to take that which does
not belong TO one. That is universal
rule of morality, as old as man and as
invariable as the laws OF Nature.
Almost universal, too, and fully in
keeping with Natures apparent plan, is
the conviction that self-destruction is
an offense against ones Maker and ones
fellow-beings.
Which course, then, under the cir
! cumstances that define the Missouri
mans plight, would have the more nearly
met the requirements OF gooI morals
! self-destruction for the purpose of saving
the wronged depositors from monetary
loss and some of them from suffering
or self-preservation at their certain ex.

as Senator Underwood has done. The
voters spoke their matured convictions
on the league question at the last ma

over taxation, and whether tax ques-

next campaign depends upon whether
the political overseers have any sense

EASTER GREETING.
RESURRECTION.

All hail the Lord our risen King!
Whose glory shines around
In radiance now surprising far
That shone on Judah's ground:
Freely descends the heavenly tide,
For now, behold Him glorified!
His rainbows arch his glorious skies,
His sunshine's warm and clear,
His Truth effulgent speaks afar,
As earth and heaven hear:
BY His surprising labor earned,
His covenant is now confirmed.
All hail to Jesus great High Priest -
The first, the last, the all,
To Him "The Life, the Truth, the
Way"
As sin and error fall:
Praise Him to the celestial skies
Whose heavenly host Him magnifies.
The tomb is now an opened door 1.
In life's evolving way:
Downward our steps on this side lead /;
Then up to living day
Within the smiles of His dear face,
Arisen in His wondrous grace.
