fFrom the St. Paul Pioneer Press

(From the st. Paul Pioneer Press)
Russian schools and universities now require,
under a new ruling by the soviet, that male stud
ents take 1856 hours of instruction in military
science in the four-year course and follow that
up with their choice of one year in the navy or
nine months in the army, in active training.
Considering the wild protests that arose in
the United States from the communist centers
against the sketchy military training, mostly con-
fined to the physical exercise Of dri calesthenics
and marches, required by the federal government
of students in land-grant colleges, the situation
of the soviet sympathizers in opposing militarism
is at once ridiculous and pathetic. The base on
which they stood, fortified by the faith that the
soviet could do no wrong and the American re-
public could do no right has shifted evasively
from beneath their feet
It viii be necessary now for the communists
here to become ardently militaristic and to insist
on military education in all state universities anc
colleges and even for years active training II
navy or army afterwords. Else they become ever
as sign posts on the highways, which point the
road but never travel it themselves.

WASHINGTON d. C.-The Amer
lean people alone, are entitled to de-
termine what shall be the size of
their army and navy. President
Coolidge in all his messages to con-
gress and in his public addresses has
made it plain that we are not only
entitled to a force sufficient to de-
fend our territory at home and to pro-
tect our interests abroad, but that we
are under no obligations to apologize
to any foreign nation for the money
which we spend to accomplish this
end.
Back of all this the president feels
the people of the country as a whole,
while willing to provide a big stick
for Uncle Sam, are distinctly op-
posed to making it so large that II
will invite suspicion and distrust
among our neighbors or so heavy
that it win tire the backs of the tax
payers who have. to pay for it.
He also feels that we have many
more useful needs for our national re-
sources than building warshipE o.
cruisers or recruiting armies in ex.
cess Of our actual national needs.
Whether we like to admit it or no
the size Of our military forces 0I
land or sea is. based Of necessity OF
the total Of the possible military o.
naval forces possessed by those will
whom we may have to cope. There
fore, sane and yet safe military re
duction is possible only if reductions
I in equal ratio are registered in tn
combative forces Of foreign nations.
That is why the president has s.
repeatedly endorsed the activities o
the disarmament conference. That !
why he is anxious for the holding G
second conference. And becaps
one cannot advance on such a gath

PHILADELPHIA LEARNS

(From the Dearborn independently
With the closing of the year, one of the most
pitful failures in the history of the ecountry pas
sed into the limbo of regretted memory. The
Sesqui- Centennial celebration should have been
the most solemn and impressive Observance the
nation has ever known. Instead it was colossal
and dismal flop. It's cost to Philadelphia in loss
of prestige has been enormous; it's actual none
tary cost staggering. Payments from the muni-
cipal treasury are placed at $4,000 900; addi-
tional expenditures made by various city depart
ments add considerably to the total participation

So, 100000, appear worthless, and the exposition
still faces deficit of $5,2OO,O0O!
The failure is due largely to the submersion of
the patriotic motif to the commercial. An at
tempt was made to cash in on the nations
reverence for its past, and the attempt collapsed.
A truly patriotic celebration would have had the
wholehearted support of the entire country; this
one did not.

as the site. With the fair still in embryo, a
scandal broke around the head of the concessions
committee chairman, scandal which resulted in
the withdraw of many exhibitors. Officials
| blundered again in opening the exposition before
the grounds ready, the exhibits installed.
Subservience to the concessions holders served
only to increase the general suspicion. By the
end of the summer the exposition had taken on
a more mature tone; there were many things
worth seeing. But the people by this time were
distrustful Less than 100000 of the predicted

so hard-the acceptance by the SEN
ate of an item in the Rivers and Har-
bOrs Bill apprOpriating $12,OOO,OOO
for the improvement of the Upper
Missouri river from Sioux City, Iowa,
to Kansas City, Missouri.
This favorable action by the senate
on a measure which long has had the
active support of the commercial or
ganizations of the Missouri valley,
has created considerable enthusiasm
throughout the country-especially in
sections Of the Middle West where
river navigation is an article of eco
nomic faith. The people Of the Mid
die West prairies believe in their
waterways and that a quickening Of
industrial and agricultural life and
effort, and an easing of their trans
pOrtation problems will come as a
response to river development.
Every farmer in the Missouri val
ley is interested to know if he may
yet see the old Missouri alive with ac-
tivity and a carrier of his freight,
for he knows that day will herald
minimum freight rates.
While it is not expected that this
work will be finished and make the
Upper Missouri navigable until after
the work on the Lower Missouri is
completed. e. the improvements in
the rivers channel from Kansas City
to st. Louis, the action is hailed as
great victory for Missouri valley de-
velOpment and a recognition of che
needs Of the Middle West; for it gets
started that which is of real economic
advantage to that section of the coun-
try. The action becomes then a GER
tain precursor Of improvements that
will make the operation of this great
national highway an economic factor
Of Importance in the prosperity Of
the entire Mississippi watershed.
Much of the success of the measure
is due to the untiring efforts of Sen
atOr Curtis.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-The succor
that gives to those who come within
our gates from foreign lands, ex-
tends its helping hand to those they
left behind. This year the records Of
the United States post office depart
ment tell an interesting tale as re-
CARDS savings.
Between Thanksgiving and Decem-
Der IL, the department for the trans
mission Of money by money order, is
sued 541, ,738 money orders to foreign
countries and involving an exchange
Of $7,836,288.57. And more amazing
is the fact that this is an increase Of
81 1,01S, ,154.65 over the money orders
issued to foreign countries for the
Christmas season Of last year (1925).
(Great Britain Of all the European
countries, shows a decrease.)
The fact becomes the more signif-
icant when We realize that this mon
ey, the most Of it, represents money
sent By the poorest class Of laborers
and which they we're able to spare
after taking care Of themselves.

:. WASHINGTON, b. C.-The good
people Of the Capital city have now
given themselves over unreservedly
to presidential political talk. 1t is
the chief topic of conversation wher-
ever two or more politicians and their
better halves gather together. 1t IS
of first importance even with the
bureau and department chiefs down
to the lowliest and newest stenOg-
rapher on the payrolls. In their de-
fense, however, it should be said that
the business Of being next, it not to
the throne at least to the heir appar-
ent or the logical successor, is re-
garded by the employees as a bread
and butter topic. One can hardly
turn a corner of a downtown street
without humping into confidential
whispers about the LOwden, the
Dawes or Hoover boOms on the Re-
publican side and the Smith, Nc
Adoo, Reed and Donahey Democratic
booms. Meanwhile ignoring all Of it
the one man whom they are all anx'
ious to hear from, the president, re-
mains absolutely quiet and seems e
enjoy it. Of course, as one man saiC
in a somewhat sour-faced way, Mr.
Coolidge is so adept in keeping quie
that he is able to do it now withOu
an effort.

ering with a sword in one hand to
welcome delegates he has taken the
position with congress that this is a
poor time to build new war vessels.
A call for disarmament while we
are placing additional pistols in our
holsters inevitably must react against
the success of a real disarmament
program. Yet it must be made plain
at the same time that if we have
empty holsters it is because we have
deliberately determined to keep them
empty and not because we lack the
ability to secure the additional arms
if we so desire.
This in brief can be taken as an
explanation of how it happens that
the president who is objecting to the
immediate building of three new
cruisers is ready to approve the plans
for the construction of 10 new war
ships for which an appropriation can
be had the moment it is desired. In
short if a disarmament conference is
held we will with his program be
able to enter such a session with
proof of our honest desire for dis
armament, and at the same time we
will be serving notice that if cOmpet-
tive armament is to continue, We
will pst not three, but 13 boats OF
the stocks in short order. The presi.
dent in this case is not only holding
good cards, but he is showing skill
in playing them.
