LEAVE TITO THE sUREAucRAr

One who has struggled to prevent
himself being inundated by the out
put Of the numerous governmental
agencies, assuming thereby to en-
tighten the public. should not get i'm
patient and neglect these illuminat-
ing efforts. After all there might be
something in some of them.
Here, for instance. is the report
from one of our most industrious
agencies of information, judged by its
volume Of output. This. the result Of
long and painstaking labor, Of course.
informs us that in one year there was
a loss of over fifty per cent in the
value of horsewhips manufactured.
We aren't quite sure Just what would
happen to the world in general If this
bit Of information had been over
looked.
As 1t is we are left to wonder
whether this may not in part be due
to less number Of horses, mules and
small boys to which and to whom
horsewhips are suited at psychology
ical moments in life. 1t would in
deed be unpleasant to learn Of any
falling off in the number Of boys,
even those deserving of horsewhips
what boy at some time in his boy
hood has not stood in need Of a
horsewhipping?
Now while we would hesitate to
leave even to the impeccable bureau
crat at Washington the ascertain
ment Of the exact need of horsewhip-
pings-he would probably insist that
these like work should never be ad-
ministered to youth under the age of
IS years-we really would like to
know how many whips are annually
used up on boys, how many on mules
and the same for horses. Such In
formation would indeed be edifying.
More, it might inspire us to restrain
cruelty and transfer some of the
whipplngs not merited to the backs
of those deserving casti~ation. How
ever, we are we'll assured in mind
that II bureaucracy continues to
multiply as it has been doing all these
questions will be answered in due time
and we will be searching for more
worlds to question. Don't, we beg of
them, dose out to us all this informa-
ton at once.
