Russian Recognition
Up Again

rC1 ENATOR BORAH, chairman Of the SEN
~ ate Foreign Relations Committee, formal
ly calls for the recognition of Russia
The United States should have recognized
Russia years ago. Recognition is not benedic-
ton. 1t merely makes possible the exchange
of official communications between govern
ments. ~
Nor would recognition make it easier for
Russians to broadcast their propaganda in the
United States. To the contrary. If it is true,
as charged, that Moscow is active in trying to
convert this country to bolshevism, the pres
ence of Russian ambassador in Washington
would greatly facilitate our handling of the
situation
And here Is why: Once in Washington,
Russia representative will be very anxious
not to make himself persona non grata. Were
it discovered that Russian agents were busy in
this country, our Secretary of State would sim
ply send for the Soviet ambassador and, in. eff
feet, tell him this:
Now, Mr.. Ambassador, we do not wish to
be unpleasant, but this and that has come to
our attention. 1t has got to stop. Interference
in the domestic affairs of this Government
must cease forthwith or out you go, horse, foot
and dragon. I"
A public rebuke of this nature-the send
ing of an ambassador packing-is the very last
thing any nation covets. 1t would be par
ticularly serious blow to Russia. 1t stands. to
reason she would take no chances At pres
ent, if she wishes to propaganda America, she
risks absolutely nothing.
In short, recognition not only would make
it possible to us to say to Russia what we
might often have to say, but it would be posi-
tive weapon in our hands. Today we have
nothing of the sort. There is everything to
gain in taking Senator Borahs cue, and moth
ing to lose.

Out in Kansas former attorney general,
who is now associate justice of the Supreme
Court, is charged with receiving 1,191 from
the Anti-Saloon League. The money, he is
quoted as saying, went solely for the payment
of his expenses in making speeches. The Attor-
ney General of the State is said to have been'
paid $4,084 He is quoted as saying the fees
were legitimate attorney hire, some of which
he received when Assistant Attorney General.
He has only received $500 since he became At
torney General, he said, to pay for two trips
he made in the interests of the League.
The Governor has ordered an investiga-
ton, which must have taken courage in the
pioneer prohibition State of Kansas, where
short grass folk, and men can be sent to jail
for possessing dram of whisky.
Public interest lies in the revelation Of
league tactics and psychology.
Rev. j. A. Mcclellan, superintendent Of
the league, calmly explains, NThe expenses
paid to Mr.. Hopkins and Mr.. Griffith are legiti-
mate and actual expenditures for league work
.ers.
If it is all right to hire judges and attor-
ney generals to help one side of an admit
tedly controversial public issue, it cannot be a
crime to employ them to help the other.

three commissioners favor the
purchase.
Apparently the conversion Of the
second commissioner cleared the
stage for the great memorial enter
prise.
Not so. Now. it is reported. five
heavy local taxpayers will insti-
tute legal action to block acquisi-
ton by Marion County of the
church properties If county off,
Gals attempt immediate purchase.
More delays, more argument.
Without rejecting on the spirit
ual aspect of the two churches
they do not fit into the memorial
design. II they ere. permitted to
remain they will not harmonic
INTELLECTUALLY with the chief
memorial edifice and will interfere
with the whole scheme of plaza
development. Their removal seems
proper and logical.
OF course their purchase now
or in the future Will cost Marion
Comfy taxpayers-big and little
a pretty penny. But the whole
memorial project is a costly un-
dertaking.
Perhaps such an undertaking
was ill-advised; something on a less
grandiose scale might have been
equally satisfactory. However, If
it is worth carrying through at all.
1t is worth carrying through ac-
cording to the adopted plan, even
though that involves the expendi-
ture of another $1,00O,000 for
clearing the plaza site.
Seven years have elapsed since
the md of the war. Five years
have passed since the memorial
scheme was born and it Is still a
bone Of contention. If those, in
whose honor the War Memorial
is being erected, had haggled as
much over serving their country
as we do over the memorial project
itself, there wouldn't be reason for
any memorial.

q ONE mighty interesting doings are going
- on the Far East these days.
China has been in chaos for years. She is
in chaos now. Picking is again tottering No
body can tell today who will be her boss to-
morrow. Annually she is the stake for which
several Chinese generals go to war and the per-
ennial game is now approaching another show
down.
But this time all that is mere background
for the real drama. Chang Tso-lin, war lord
of Manchuria for the past decade and regarded
as the most powerful Tuchun in all China,
seems to be losing out. Which is a little bit
more than strange.
Chang started life as a bandit Japan
early became his good friend and lifted him
from outlaw virtually to q throne. He has
always been able to count on both the moral
and the financial support of Toxic. Now some
thing has happened. He seems about to pass
from the scene without Japan or any one else
lifting finger to keep him in power. Of course
he is now immensely rich, but that does not
account for SO much docility on the part of the
ex-bearcat dread outlaw and terror Of the
Russo Chinese border.
Meantime we hear Of Russia activities In
Manchuria. 1t appears the communists are
coming simultaneously we get word Of

we believe him.

ON AGAIN
OFF AGAIN

T-7ORREST RoMINGER, pa.
r trolman. is off The Indian
IL apolis police force again.
He was suspended recently-two
weeks after illJ appointment to
the force-charged with being I'M
der the influence of liquor while
on duty.
He has been a policeman off and
on for several years. Two years
ago he drew a sixty-day suspen-
sion for conduct unbecoming DIN
officer. Iseintsated. Last year he
was charged with intoxication and
eventually found guilty. The board
of safety forgave him and restored
him to duty.
Last spring he again fell from
grace, and was suspended from
the force pending trial on charge
of intoxication, He did not even
appear before the board Of safety
at the scheduled hearing on the
charges. So was dropped with a
thud.
Despite that record he was re-
appointed to- police job a cou-
pie Of weeks ago among the whole
sale additions to the police ranks.
Now another fall from grace and
another suspension. on again, on
again, off again.
Forgiveness is a noble quality.
And, no doubt, the sinner should
be given every chance and encour-
agement to reform. But it is the
function of the police department
to enforce the laws and not reform
erring policemen. The Salvation
Army theory that man may be
down but never out has no place
in a police department.
If a man, suspended time and
again for intoxication and miscon-
duct, is deemed worthy Of reap
pointment to the force after each
fall, why should the plain, I'M
starred citizens be expected to re-
spect and obey the laws such Of
fcers are sworn to enforce?
