BUSINESS AND POLITICS

The business situation just now IS curious one
prominent business authority, Theodore H. Price,
remarks on the strange contrast between fact and
feeling" Nearly all the things by which trade IS us
ually judged seem favorable; bank cearings, railroad
earnings car loadings, retail sales, postal receipts
telegraph tolls, etc, all show greater volume than
they did year ago There is almost full employment
of men and plants at good wages and profits and
consumption keeps pace with production Yet the stock
market has been weakening and there is considerable
doubt in the minds of business to the prospects
for the year
What is the trouble? The doubtful state of mind
seems due more to political than business conditions
People are becoming worried about the possible effect
of recent inquiries and revelations national pros
perity Some question the honesty of our public life
in general and feel that government in America is
breaking down" Others are less moved by evidences
of corruption than by evidences of destructive partisan
spirit and fear of what the practical effects may be in
this years campaign.
To the citizen more concerned with the welfare of
his country than the immediate fortunes of any poll
teal party there nothing really alarming IN the situ-
alton at Washington and there is plain course to
follow Such citizen is bound to feel that nothing
permanent is to be gained either by painting things
backer than they by covering up dishonesty and
incompetence where they exist AS sensible merchant

Illustrations, at least. Now has played joke
ON the fad followers by bringing out of Partisan style
centers the ''chak-ne crawl. 1t isn't so bad as it
sounds and it isn't a crawl
The chalk-lne crawl is accomplished by placing each
foot directly in front of the other, with the toes turn
ing neither in nor out, but always pointed straight
forward as if one were walking along line actually
drawn on the pavement or the ballroom floor.
Physical education teachers have long used this
as an exercise in corrective work to improve the sruc
ture and strength of defective feet Doctors and scen
tses whose opinions have been sought in regard to this
fad declare that it only slight exaggeraton of the
"deal and natural way of walking 1t is asserted by
authorities that primitive of the Arabian de-
sert famous for their graceful dancing and magnif
cent carriage, though they do not put their feet d
recty in front of each other keep them very close to-
gether aterally and walk with each foot pointed al
most directly forward.
Betraying the hygienic value of this straghtfor-
ward walk may somewhat dampen the ardor of those
who would take it up simply because it was suggested
in Paris. But wise walkers who have been misled in
the past will do we'll to start walking the chalk line.
