A FABLE FOR BUILDERS

Last summer good citizen of a certain town,
not over hundred miles from almost any
where, built a wooden house for a woman and
her children. He built the chimney of brick be-
cause he had to do so. The chimney was able
to stand alone so he did not have to prop it with
wood. But the floors of the house would not stay
up without props. The good citizen saved dol
lar by using the chimney as a support for the
hoors He nestled the ends of the floor joist
nicely into the bricks of the chimney. He then
covered up the job and got his money.
The rains fell and the winds blew in the most
Biblical manner and winter came after it's US
ual fashion. The chimney settled a little and
there was tiny crack.
One morning the woman woke up with fire all
about her. She tried to get to her children. If
she got to them, no one ever knew it. The good
citizen who built the house was not arrested for
He is still building other houses
of the same kind for other women and children.

MUST PAY DEBTS

Washington, D. c., January 30
The dignifed yet constant reitera-
ion on the part of President Cool
dge that the debts owed to the Unit
ed States by foreign nations must be
paid and cannot be cancelled. is
making its impression in all foreion
capitals. The President in so stating
the American case is standing unon
a flrm foundation, for this same
tnought is imbedded in the platform
OF the Republican party adopted at
It's national convention in Cleveland
The attitude of the United States is
not merely that of a creditor nation
which with a sheriff at hand is de-
manding that forced sale be CON
Quoted in order that the money due
may be paid, but rather a nation
which, in the case of France. is de-
manding that a fair acknowledge
ment of the debt be made and that
a disposition and willingness to pay
be put upon the record. Even in this
the American attitude is not based
alone on the desire to secure a re-
turn of money honestly loaned. but
back of it is a feeling that the re-
building of Europe can only be suc-
cessfully accomplished if the moral
stamina Of the people is sustained
That any American course which
would allow the French people to ig-
more the debts would work for their |
moral weakening and would initiate |
against the upbuilding which we all !
consider most important for the
good of the world. French officials
are apparently engaged in a fishing
expedition in the hopes of establish
ing for their own satisfaction how
ar they can go in delaying recog-
lition of the debt and payments.
The French people of themselves.
lowever, are ready to recognize
heir obligations. There are some Of
)ur own people enthused over the
Of our nation and the sur
lIusses in the national Treasury.
Who have discussed cancellation of
he French debt as a happy and in
idental solution of the relations be-
ween the two countries, but a debt
5 debt, and if the debt or nation
gnores or is forgiven its obligation
he Treasury balance of the United
tates can only be reimbursed in one
-ay, namely, by the imposition of
ADDITIONAL taxation on our own peo- l
le. That must not be forgotten.
Milford chronicle., 1925-01-30

Will these same people be pleased with that? If
the editorial writer in the Sussex Journal is to
be taken as sign, they will not be pleased with
that or any other law that can be enacted. The
editor of the Sussex Journal is welded to an
idol of non-progress in all forms of education.
The Income Tax law has brought in much
larger sum in the past year than it did the first
year of it's operation. The tax on corporations
is now being enforced with very good financial
results and that law will function large in the
current year. These are all sources that the
legislature in 1928 tapped for support of the
public schools, to relieve the load from real es-
tate.
1t is true that there are none so blind as those
who will not see

WHAT THE PEOPLE LOST

Washington, D. c., January 30
Governmental operation of Amer
ican railways has ceased. The books
have been closed and the American
people, in taxes alone, have paid
substantially one and three-quarter
billions of dollars for the expert
ment. The additional costs which the
travellers and shippers Of America
were obliged to meet because of in
different service and extraordinarily
high rates can hardly be estimated.
It can be fairly said that this addi-
tional burden will come near equal
ling the actual total of American
dollars paid out by the government,
which the taxpayers had to meet.
President Coolidge in announcing
the dissolution of the governmental
wartime operation organization did
not attempt to conceal his satisfac-
tion at being able to relieve the
American people of this extraordi-
nary burden. Staggering as these to-
tails are the one element Of satisfac-
tion is that happily we only embark
ed on governmental operation. Had
we been driven into government ow-
nership, which was the real aim of
many people at the time, the total
loss Of the peoples money would
have been many times over the pres
ent figure, impressive as that is. A
study of the costs of this most un-
fortunate experiment, not only in
money values, but in efficiency,
should serve to check the gentle
men who, devoid Of any personal re-
sponsibility, have been preaching
governmental operation of public
utilities as the one sure way to Sc
cure the millennium for American
citizens.

MILFORD, FRIDAY, JANUARY 80, 1925

FOR DAYS the life of one of the leading men
of Delaware has hung in the balance and it is
with much satisfaction to men and women in
all parts of this state to receive the information
through the daily press, that the Honorable
George Gray is in more favorable condition at
his home in Wilmington and that he may regain
the good health which has carried him to 80
years of life which is filed with high honors
as statesman, jurist, lawyer and citizen
honored by all Delawareans.

THE STATE FAIR GROUNDS near Whining
ton have been sold to private owners, who have
not announced what disposition is to be made
of the property It has been suggested that
steps be taken to permit a racing track for
horses, under the management of the Grand Cir
cult management of the tracks now operating in
Maryland. There are so many arguments for
the proposition and so few in opposition, which
have real merit that with a systematic cam
pagn of education, we believe that majority
would be favorable to this project to save the
horse as one of the best of the domestic animals
in the service of man, for both the home and
pleasure uses Of all the people.
