but at the same time we see the country flooded
with political propaganda to launch the govern
ment in other branches of industry. All such pro-
pOsals are contrary to the true spirit of our Con-
s~titutiOn.
The fund"ren+al paint the American people
must consider is not so much whether they want
public ownership of some particular industry, but
whether they want to change our entire form of
government, the cardinal principle of which is~a
recognition of the right to private property and
the development of private enterprise under
government protection, to a system which does
not recognize the right to private property and
which would have the government step in and
take over various business enterprises which
heretofore private citizens have had a right to
operate.

REAL INVESTIGATION NEEDED

There is need for a real investigation Of the
federal tariff commission. 1t expends a consider
able sum of money, and its decisions of necessity
have an important bearing on American economic
life.
But such Investigation should be based on a
desire to learn the facts with the idea of either
improving or abOlishing the board. When, as in
the present instance, the Investigation is con-
Quoted with the idea of discovering, if possible,
issues on which the Democratic party can make
a fresh start, public respect is forfeited almost
in advance.
Before the lamentations of the Democratic
h~ighbrOw experts who functiOned with this board
under Democratic national auspices are taken too
seriously by the public, it would be well for farm
ers to remember that it was a ruling of this board
on wheat last fall that helped save the market,
and that a ruling on butter even within the last
few days has operated to protect American dairy
men from the flood of foreign buffers which
threatened their industry.
American business men, if they review recent
history, can also remember instances where only
the ability of this board to function promptly has
made possible quick adjustment of tariff duties
to offset combinations of fiat paper money and
low labor prices abroad, thus enabling certain
American industries to continue.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Congress-
man Oldfield, as chief Of the Demo-
cratic National committee, opened the
campaign in Maine last Wednesday.
AS vet, however, the Republication
Of Maine stands mistaken, without
the sign of an earth tremor, much less
an earthquake. He spoke for n
hour and spent most Of that in deny
ing things; denying prosperity, econ
omy, and thrift. In so doing, how
ever, he was following the usual
Democratic procedure. He proclaimed
that the tariff was the outstanding is
sue Of the campaign, and that the
Democrats stood for radical action il
tariff rates. This must indeed have
been cheering talk fer the mill OPP
orators in Lewiston and other centers
where even today the operatives have
already lost money by reason Of the
fact that the present tariff rates
which Oldfield is going to reduce are
not sufficiently high to keep out the
flood of foreign textiles daily being
sold in the American markets.

DEMOCRATIC STUPIDITY.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-The 100 per
cent efficiency Of the Democratic and
anti-C Ollidge forces in stupidity has
never been disclosed more clearly than
in the creation and activities Of the
special senate committee investigat-
ing the federal tariff commission.
This scheme Of creating a board
which outside Of congress would have
the power with the consent of the
president to increase or lower tariff
rates to meet trade emergencies has
never been popular with the Repub-
licans who have had the feeling that
the power to fix customs duties was
an exclusive privilege Of congress.
For some time Republican leaders
and even the president himself have
considered the ACCESSIBILITY Of abolish
ing the board. It was with this
thought in mind that a considerable
] number Of administration senators
voted for the investigation and were
ready to cooperate towards that end
IL a study Of the situation proved the
case. But the Democrats, not content
with working into the resolution an
attempted reflection on the president,
dictated the membership, and as a re-
suit Senator LaFollette was made 3
member. How can q committee re-
port, when made, be taken seriously
when it is discovered that last Febru-
sry in an article in his monthly mag
atine, Senator LaFollette in his ca
lpacity as editor not only tried the
tariff issue but declared in advance
that the charges made are true?

STANDARDS FOR TEACHERS

The standard Of qualification for teacher certi-
ficates in the different states is gradually being
raised. More states are recognizing professional
training, including practice teaching and the
granting of certificates on earned credentials.
The idea Of requiring candidates for teaching
positions to take an examination before receiving
a certificate is losing ground. During the last
few years there has been a remarkable increase
in the number Of certificates issued upon the COM
pletiOn of professional courses and a correspond
ing decrease in the number of certificates by ex-
animation without professional preparation.
Each of the 48 states now recognizes profess
sional training for credit toward certification. In
1911, only two states required professional train
ing for certificates of the lowest grade. The
number of states having this prerequisite in 1919
had increased to II. Now q states require pro-
f~essional training for all their teachers before
granting any teaching license.
Twenty-four states now require high school
graduation or it's equivalent as a prerequisite for
any certificate. In 1919 this was required in only
II states. And at the present time, 81 states
require professional training beyond a fOur-year
high school course as a prerequisite for any GER
tificate, while in 1911 only one state had this
requirement.
Teacher training in a recognized institution of
higher learning as a basis for certification, from
all indications, will soon be required in every
state.

OBJECTS OF HEALTH EDUCATION

DR.. Melvin A. Brannon, chancellor of the Uni
versity of Montana and a member of the advisory
committee on May day activities, says that child
hood is that period of life in which there should
be maximum happiness. This truth is dependent
upon the fact that youth enjoys large freedom
from responsibility, has exuberance of spirits,
lively imagination, great release of physical en-
ergy and thoroughly enjoys all forms of play and
recreation.
Happiness is both a cause and a result Of posi-
tive health during childhood. 1t is a cause of
health inasmuch as the state of mind has definite
physiological relationships to internal secretions,
to healthful functions of all tissues in the organ
ism, and contributes largely and positively to the
relaxation necessary to rest and repair. Because
happiness has this casual relationship to good
health, the directors of Fairgrounds and play pro-
grams choose a variety of games, exercises, and
Entertainments which arouse the interest and en-
thusiasm of the participants and provide the
variations which stimulate the imagination and
give zest to the recreations.
Happiness is a result of good health, because
freedom from disease and freedom from pain are
essential things in every program which cOntri-
butes to the contentment and satisfaction of the
Individual. Every positive health program rests
upon the basis of preventing disturbances and
disorders in the glandular, musclar, and nervous
systems of the individuals, rather than stressing
curative agencies which are nOn-essential when
health is considered from a positive rather than
a negative standpoint.
81 think" says DR.. Brannon, "that the great
Master had in mind the superlative Importance
of happiness in the two greatest experiences of
mortals and immortals - that is, childhood on
earth and citizenship in Heaven. He said Suffer
little children to come unto me- for Of such is the
Kingdom of Heaven That statement was both
an invitation and a mandate. It is authoritative
in both cases., because pure happiness is the
supreme objective Of individuals and social groups
It is automatic that positive health programs have
at the same time casual and resultant relation
ships to the happiness and wellbeing of children
youth, and adults. Happiness pure and whole
some, therefore, should be recognized as the
superlative end of the positive health program
organized for the children, youth, and adults o.

SOME HELP TO FISHERMEN
Helena Independent

Montana fishermen who have contemplated
with growing misgiving the posting of land along
their favOrite trout streams with "NO Fishing
signs, read the address of Chief Justice Galloway
before the Western Montana Sportsmen associ-
alton, with considerable satisfaction.
For the chief justice, in discussing the decision
of the state supreme court in the case of Herrin
VS.. Sutherland, the defendant hunter, that the
trespasses are criminal when they are expressly
made so by statute, said that the Montana law on
the subject does not mention fishermen. Hunters
are specifically mentioned and are therefore sub
ject to prosecution for misdemeanOr, while the
fishermen can only be sued in civil action for
damages actually done when he enters upon posted
land.
To quote Justice Getaways words:
Technically every unauthorized entry on the
land of another, is trespass. But only those tres
passes are criminal which are expressly made so
by statute"
The judge believes that if a fisherman will go
to a land owner who has posted his land against
trespassers and ask permission to fish, that he
viii be given consent. If not
Well, it would appear that while there may be
considerable wrangling and perhaps hard feelings,
if the fisherman goes on whipping the stream
after being refused, he may do so, if he is careful
not to do any damage to the property. In the
case of the hunter, refusal is an absolute bar,
unless the hunter is willing to take q chance on
being yanked into court by the sheriff or con-
stable and prosecuted and fined for a mis-
demeanor.
So, in the light Of recent understanding Of the
much mooted question, it is possible that a better
feeling may be promoted between ranchers anC
fishermen. All that is necessary is to secure per
mission to fish.

COL. COOLIDGE'S TRIBUTE.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-There was
a fine, honest LONELINESS in all the
comments which the late Colonel
Coolidge made during the weary days
when he was awaiting the passing Of
the spirit. His tribute to the presi-
dents wife which he whispered to q
companionable newspaperman sitting
beside him, properly ranks as one Of
the finest. However chary Of words
this Old Roman had been during his
working hours, his real feelings came
to the surface when speaking of the
presidents wife. He said, "Grace
has always been helpful to Cal. He
was fortunate in getting so fine a
girl fer wife. People take to heE
because she is so kind-hearted and at
tractive. She has always been kind
to all of US"
In these days when every female is
a lady, and when marriages are mat
tiers of contract, and when being kind
to older folk is regarded as a lost
art, it is we'll to have it impressed on
US once again that there are "girls in
the world, and that people do take to
them," and that being kind to folk
even in the family circle is still a viz
tue worthy Of commeHdation.
And equally worthy Of being quoted
was his remark that otis easy To
make friends, but hard to keep them.
and that is the best test of friendship
Cal has made friends who stick to
him."

H TRUTH HURTS.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Democratic
national leaders, whose inclination to
count chickens before they are hatch
ed is sadly admitted by their fellow
part ymembers, have been trying 20
preach that even the smallest Demo
cratic congressional success this year
can be interpreted as an augury Of
a greater success in 1928. They now
have been again shocked out Of their
self-cOmPlacency by the irrepressible
Frank Kent Of the Baltimore "Sun,
a newspaper so rabidly Democratic
that it buys even it's ink from Demo
cratic sources. Frank, who met some
, of these sun-dodgers in Washington,
broke into print the other day 20
again advise them that even if they
! won the whole senate, their prospects
in 1928 would not be improved.
The truth is, says Frank, all over
the country there are thousands Of
men. who will vote for every Demo-
cratic candidate except for president,
in which case they always pick a Re-
publican The explanation Kent says
is the extraordinary success Of the Re
publican party in sO~lidifying the bust
ness interests and selling the idea"
He could t%ruthfully have said, proving
it, that prosperity would be destroyed
should a Republican president be de-
feated. The hard thing for the Demo
Gratis to face in statements like this
is that Kent does not even leave them
the hope that they may get sunshine
out Of the cucumber.
