CHANGE IN TACTICS

President Grant, oO years dSo, issued an executive order that fed eral officers could not be employed by state, counties or cities at the same time. on the principle that d man could not serve two masters.
 Times and thought have changed in the White House, and today wo find one of the chief topics of con- versation the executive order of President Coolidge enabling local officials, in such states permitting it, to be employed by the federal government at "nominal rates.
 Although the order at this time is intended to apply primarily to California, where it will be tried out unless Congress throws obsta- cles in its path. it can be utilized in a large portion Of other states as well. Yet it is difficult to grasp how the order. will make much difference in the efficiency with which the prohibition law is en- forced in most states. Local off cials are already trying to enforce the dry law as much as they can; giving officials the status of fed eral agents would merely enable them to pursue rum runners and bootlegCers over state lines to bet ter effect. perhaps. The net result may not be as effective as propo. nents Of the executive order fl there arc any such, expect.
 As to the consututionality of the executive order. there seems to bo nothing to the contrary in the basic document. That inc order is an in- vasion Of s,ate's rights is claimed by some observers. but the Prcst- dent is already upon record on this point, having said in his last speech that where states fail to do their duties they encourage the federal government 10 step in. A the same time the President waved eloquent against the possl jlily or necessity Of federal invasion of states rights. Fe evidently thinks enforcement Of inc prohibition law is case where the federal govern ment has been encouraged 10 "as- sist" the states through the manu- facture os more federal agents out of local officials.
 Tie President, by declaring he IS ready to modify inc executive order if found advisable, has indi- cated a willingness 10 act reason able; but it's opponents evidently have not proved 10 his satisfaction that modification is requisite. Con- gress has another hot morsel to talk about and the country as whole wonders whether the cxccu- tive order is worth all the talk, considering it's probable in,Gccuso- ness 10 achieve its object.

Did Money Fail?

sT have discovered that money does not give
happiness"
This was the message which italian, ending
his own life one of the beautiful lakes OF MS
native land left as explanation for his suicide
AS a boy he left his sunny home and came to
the land Of opportunity. He arrived in the steerage
of an emigrant ship under contract to an employer
at a pitiable wage. He was victim Of that system
Of peonage which prevailed before this country took
its first step toward selective immigration.
He looked upon this country as place where
fortunes easily obtained and he made Tor
tune. His story Of success duplicates that OF many
others who had fed from oppressive conditions In
Europe to the country where initiative thrift and
work would give returns and rewards.
Five years ago he went back to his home land.
taking with him twenty million of dollars. He went
back to a country whose currency was deprecated,
and where dollar would buy much more at that
time than at any other period in its history.
He purchased a vast estate, probably because
as a boy he had no home and his parents and an
cestors for generations had existed at the will and
pleasure of some titled aristocrats who had in
herited their lands from king for whom they had
fought
He had servants enough to form small army.
He bought his automobiles in fleets. Everything
that luxury could suggest was his.
Five years Of this finds him suicide his life
money does not bring happiness.
He was wrong in that of course, as wrong as he
was In the belief that death Is the answer to
any problem.
We're he correct, poverty should be the goal Of
all human beings and money, either large amounts
or small, should be looked upon curse and not
blessing.
What he had really found was that he did not
know how to use his money to gain happiness. He
had discovered that there is difference between
happiness and comfort
He could buy the things which pleased his pal
ate and delighted his eye. He could buy nothing
that satisfied his soul.
The wealth that he had owned him He did not
own his own money
Wealth can buy happiness IL 1t be looked upon
only as a means of creating conditions which invite
happiness.
It gives leisure and opportunity for study. It
makes possible expansion of unselfshness.
1t can create conditions under which others may
be helped to escape from the very tyrannies and
pressions from which he had fed as youth.
What he really meant that wealth never
brings happiness to selfish person.

Drunken DriUeyS

So alarming is the increase Of drunkenness
among drivers of automobiles especially in the
middle west, that the head Of the automobile asso-
citation of the Nation sounds warning and protest.
More persons we're arrested In 1925 for this
crime, and It Is real crime, than in any previous
year.
Here is something more than argument for
those who do not like the volstead act prohibit
ton to use to support their contention that the
present system has failed to curb drunkenness.
The constantly increased use of the automobile
in business and for pleasure demands that there be
mixing Of booze and gasoline.
Were the driver simply to menace his own life
and limb, were he merely to endanger the lives Of
those who might be foolish enough to ride in his
car the problem might solve itself and the verdict
be written by coroners.
But automobile driver crazed with drink and
especially the poisonous stuff which Is dealt out
by the moonshiner and the bootlegger, is menace
to every person he may meet upon the road
He becomes potential murderer, for the kill
ings of pedestrians and other autosts by such a
driver can be called nothing else but murder.
The law In this State makes Jail sentence COM
pulsory upon conviction for this crime.
The extreme limit of the law, in every case, and
with no discrimination In favor of the man who
gets drunk on bonded stuff at SIS quart and the
one who goes crazy over homemade wine is not
too light penalty.
But even that does not furnish the whole
answer
No man who drives an automobile while drunk
should again be permitted to drive any car.
The revocation of his license and another year
In Jail IL caught driving automobile, drunk or
sober, might help out the situation.
Traffic problems in congested streets and along
paved roads are difficult enough without the addi-
tional problem Of trying to make them safe against
drunks who fill up on hootch and then step on the
gas.

Col. Coolidge

Today Calvin Coolidge forgets that he is a
President and becomes son, his head bowed ana
his heart filed with grief.
Not all the power of the highest Office in all the
world could give to the he loved an added hour
OF life
Nor can all the honors he has gained take from
his heart that ache which comes when earthly ties
are broken and loved leaves, never to return
The father who gave direction and inspiration
to his early fe whose qualities and character were
transmitted and, upon national scale translated
into greatness is beyond the reach of his solicitude
and care.
All that even President can now bestow is the
tribute of memory.
Consolation must come in the thought that this
son was able to lift from the obscurity OF small
village man Of sturdy worth and character who
would have otherwise been unnoted beyond the hills
in which he lived.
To no other father in all history has 1t
been given to administer oath Of Office to his son
peldging him to keep faith with the millions of his
fellow citizens In their highest office
The people Of this Nation to this father
their gratitude for an example of sterling American
ism
Few could have withstood the temptation to
share the glamor and the glory of his His atti
tude was constant reminder OF the heeting nature
of fame and the sturdier worth Of service.
The spotlight did not change his simplicity or
manner of living
He lived as he had always lived, simply, usefully,
sincerely and with dignity
In that dignity of simple life, he exempl1hed the
best of all American traditions.
The people will be gratifed that their President
has the memory of such father st1n to serve as
his guide and his consolation. To the son, they
tend sympathy sincere and deep.
