EUils That Perish

CPEAKING of the filth in seemingly
~ popular literature Frank Harper
tells readers Of the Pittsburg Press 1.-THE
obScenity of large portion of even the
highest society of Queen Elizabeth's time
was a passing phase, Today's filth will
also be transient"
Most evils, save those sprung from
mans physical appettes, are passing
phases The craving for filth in contem-
poraIy literature is mental lesion, rs
was the accepted indecency of Elizabeth's
time. A septic tank will dry up thru the
feeding upon each other of its own germs.
Evils finally suicide. That vicious phase
passes most quickly which soonest be-
comes common. A tidal wave of bad lit
erature is to be followed by n flood of
popular demand for good literature. For
man looks upward, always steps little
farther away from the beast.

Economy That Cuts

C>AILLAUX is to initiate Coolidge as to
~ economy.
So many government employees have
been sent home to their folks by Coolidge
economy that those still holding on are
not spending their money in the stores,
for fear that il may be their turn next.
Caillaux publicly notifies all useless
employees that he is after them, and the
Paris merchants already note slack bust
ness, and when the Partisan retailer gets
real mad, he is terror.
Of course, there is solid ground for
economy thru elimination of superfluous
government positions. But, nevertheless,
cutting off the purchasing power of thou
sands, for any reason, must affect those
who do business because of such pur-
chasing power. The folks, quite gener-
ally, seem to be thinking on economy.
Too bad that the feeling didn't possess
them right after the war, when q period
of unprecedented splurging set in.

A Pleasant Family Affair

TWO features of the cx-kaiser's family

tion stand forth
The servants were allowed generous
portion Of the wine Clearly an indica-
ton of Hohenzollen trend toward max
ing the family safe for democracy
Secondly, the consensus of sentiment
was that the celebration was less for the
ex-kaiser personally than for Prince Fred
erick as the coming war lord" An as
tonishing honor TO Fred coming from
warlike family, since in his recent trial
for responsibility for the last war, his
defense was, largely that he wasn't near
enough TO the war to be responsible for
anything.
Still, it was fine family celebration,

IF you cannot get into the game thru

Bryan was an accidental" candidate in
1896 two or three times q steam-roller
candidate, later on, and now is 'recep-
tive" candidate for the Florida senator
ship.
Mr.. Bryan's platform will be awaited
with great interest, as usual. There
doesn't seem to be much virtue left in a
16-to-1 plank and, since "unearned incre-
ment' on Florida real estate has made
Mr.. Bryan very rich. the well-hnown
cross of thorns" may be missing. How
ever, platform giving thoro roasting
to the gorilla and AL Smith may suffice.
Or, indeed, mere statement that he
wants to get into the senate to be ruled
by Hellanmaria Dawes might bring down
the fruit.
