THAT HALO"

An exchange says that a per
son who advocates a change IN
the Volstead Act is not law
abiding. This is another mani
festation of the same narrow
bigotry that has damned more
than one good cause. 1t is no
indictment Of a mans sincerity
if, with all the manifestations OF
imperfections in the enforce
ment of the dry law, he advo-
Gates a change.
The person who obeys the law,
but peacefully advocates its
modification is perfectly within
his rights, and is exercising a
privilege which is his by constl-
tutional right. If some of the
drys would be 100 per cent
American they would concede to
others the same rights they
claim for themselves. Climbing
into notoriety via the dry route
confers on no one a halo nor
gives him the right to be a dem
agogue.-North Baltimore CO.,

SMALL CAR COMING

Like all other large volume
automobile manufacturers, ChaS.
w. Nash, president of the Nash
Motors Co., has devoted serious
thought to traffic congestion.
He sees one interesting tend
ency; namley, a wider demand
for medium and small cars and
a diminishing demand for very
large cars. He says, in Forbes
Magazine On. W:
"The great advantage of the
smaller car is its easy handling
and ability to turn in compara-
lively small space. | believe that
the old type Of extra luxurious,
long wheel-base car will be viz
tually eliminated. The time is
soon coming, believe, when we
will see on the roads scarcely
any cars exceeding a chassis
wheel base Of 125 inches, and
the majority of cars in use, |
predict, will be 10 inches or
less.

MORE FOR JUDGES

One class of Government en-
ployes is likely to get substan-
tial increases in salaries at this
session of Congress. Federal
judges are slated for increases
ranging from 25 per cent up in

tive Graham Of Pennsylvania,
which is expected to pass. The
bill provides a salary of $12,5OO

out the country. They now re-
ceive $500. Other increases
are as follows: Chief Justice
Taft, $20,500, against $4,000;
other Supreme Court justices,
$4,000, as against $14, 800; cir
cult judges, $4,000, against
So, 800; chief justice of the U. 5;
Court of Claims, $13,5O0, and
associate justices, $4,000,

Dost feel secure, o Duce! in thy hie

Dost feel secure, o Duce! in thy high
place
Among thy Black Shirts, strong in
lawless power,
Who now the wealth of humble men
devour
While theft and murder multiply
apace?
Didst think thou long could chain a
noble race,
Or that within thine own appointed
hour
Thou couldst make all men low be-
fore thee cover
All dreams of freedom from their
souls efface?
Men in whose veins the blood of
Dante runs,
Whose fathers were by Garibaldi led
Whose own free minds were by Mazz
ini fed,
Will not endure thy lordship many
suns:
A tyrant is by all true men alb
horred-
Who rules by terror has his fit
reward.

NO ASIATICS

"The peace of the nations de-
mand that the United States do
not allow Asiatic immigrants to
plague our posterity," said Pro
fessor Albert Bushnell Hart OF
Harvard university, speaking
before the League of Women
Voters School of Politics.
The educator opposed the ad-
mission of Japanese, Chinese,
and Hindu immigrants, not on
the ground that they are IN
ferior, but because their de-
scendants would not for many
generations be distinguished
from Caucasians, thus causing
endless difficulties.

Merchants and Wages

A reader of the Toledo Union Lead
er has the following to say on the
wage question in the last issue of that
wide awake paper:
"The writer of this is not a wage
worker and therefore not a member
of any union. Yet | want to COM
mend President Green of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor for his dec
laration before the Chicago church
conference that high wages are
good thing for employers as we'll as
employees.
President Green shows clearly that
a worker can buy back only an
amount of his product equal to the
wages paid him. When a great sur
plus piled up as the outcome of over
production is it because the workers,
which are the people generally, are
paid too low a wage to enable them
to buv back a volume of goods about
equal to that which they produce.
The result is congestion in the mar
ket. a surplus that can not be dispos-
ed of and lay-offs and stagnation of
business and industry.
| never could get the standpoint of
the business man who throws his in
fluence on the side of cheap labor
and a low wage. He is only cutting
off his nose to spite his face in do
ing so. When workers are well en-
ployed and we'll paid the business of
the merchant is always brisk. An op-
posite condition for the worker is felt
Immediately by the merchant, instead
of Joining the Merchants & Manufac-
turers' association with its low wage
program it seems to me the mer-
chants would better conserve their
economic interests in joining the
ranks of those who stand for high
er standard of living"

Rail Interests
Urge Adoption
of Labor Bill
Opposition From Anti-UniOn
National Association of
Manufacturers

Washington, D. C.-Railroad
managers and representatives Of
twenty railroad labor organiza-
tions urged the senate interstate
commerce commission to favor
the railroad labor bill agreed t.
by these interests. The bill is
opposed by the anti-union Ma
tional Association of Manufac-
turers.
"The strongest feature Of this bill
is" said Donald R. Richberg, counsel
for the labor organizations, chat it
does represent the agreement of the
parties, and all concerned will be
placed under a moral obligation to
see that the machinery devised and
accepted is utilized in good faith"
Alfred P. Thorn, counsel for the
managers, said that labor refuses to
be placed in a straight jacket, and
that the managers do not favor this
policy. eve are trusting to their
good faith in this matter" he said.
"There are certain things labor is
very much opposed to-" he continued
"Thev do not want to write an anti
strike clause in a bill. They think
this bill, if enacted, will end strikes
and be the beginning of peace and
understanding between railroad en-
ployes and executives. This is a meas
ure agreed upon by the parties who
say that this will work. Now, if you
change the provisions you then re-
lieve, to that extent, the parties to
the moral obligation to make it
work"
Mr.. Thorn acknowledged that anti
strike laws are futile. He said "our
belief is that stringent methods"
would only result in antagonism.
