to reach as he dashed toward the

Great Significance Attached
To Firm Attitude of Hughes

Two outstanding thoughts run
through comment on the statement
of Charles T.. Hughes that he is too
old to run for President and that he
is for Coolidge, first, last and all the
time" They are first, that Mr.. Hughes
really is able and vigorous enough for
the White House, Notwithstanding his
advancing years, and, second, that his
unqualified support of the President is
most significant in connection with
anti-third talk.
His unuuestioned quality as presl-

phia Evening Bulletin, Independent
Republican,. which feels that las long
as he is still able to- undertake the du-
ties of the chief office OF the lana ne
will be associated in mems mind with
the presidency of the Republic, should
circumstances lead the Nation to cast
about for a man capable Of bearing
it's responsibilities. The Bulletln
adds, however, that "the demand FOR
the denomination Of President Cool.
idge is unmistakable and is confined
to no section"
The Omaha World-Herald Gndepend-
ent) accepts the view that ''the fact
that Mr.. Hughes is not at all i'm
pressed by the anti-third-term issue
will have great weight among those
who may have been inclined to fear
it," To the Saginaw News-Courier
independently it really begins to appear
that there is no positive or downright
necessity for Mr.. Coolidge to speak for
himself, which fact he seems to have
realized" The New Orleans Item lin
dependent Democratic) adds: "A few
sporadic reports of a movement to
nominate Hughes have been heard.
But they were hardly numerous
enough to require formal statement.
1t may be that Mr.. Hughes declara-
tion is intended primarily as remind
er that many Republican leaders are
willing to nominate Mr.. Coolidge again
and to reassure the doubling that he
will be elected If nominated"
X X X II
Regardless of third-term talk"
states the Pueblo Star-Journal Gnde-

Coolidge by an overwhelmingly vote.

thinks he can root it out of his mind
and heart. And persons ambitious to
reform others also may save their
breath.
Such envious men and women are
born, not made, or, at least, If made,
the making is of such slow. gradual
process. with every single trait
whipped in by fire, that no amount
of thinking will ever get it out again.
Is there, then, no hope?
There Is very little, it would seem,
for the complete wiping out of the
trait, but very much hope, Indeed, for
the suppressi>n Of it. This is the
happy flower of civilization.
Civilization deserves a great deal Of
credit that commonly it does not re-
ceive. Polish, or whatever one wants
| to call it, is the result of what we
called civilized living.

An envious civilized man, upabru co

the same emotion, yet would not give
voice to them.
BY no word or even look would he

This is the triumph of civilization

giles of every day.

mind. 1t is pretty and fashionable. in
some quarters, to say that they can
be, but every honest man knows diff

1t is questionable, indeed, whether
an envious-minded person could ever,
in any manner, overcome this flair,
so interviewer is it with mind, heart
and soul.
Suppose the eminently practical
plan is pursued of making money,
large quantities Of it, so that such
man may be able to purchase for
himself houses, cars and so on, in
line with his observations and de-
sires.
Will there not always be a point
beyond which he cannot reach? When
he arrives there he will still see others
ahead Of him, and he will merely
transfer his envy. His envy will be
almost as large as ever.

This method, applied to such way
Of thinking as contained in the theory
and practice of envy, falls 17atter than
the proverbial pancake. What good
does it do an enviouS person to know
that he is envious?
Every such person is willing to
admit it to himself, and to others,
il hard pressed, but the confession
does not ease his soul. Rather it
but nails it closer to his brow.
A process Of forgetting, If it can
be worked out by the individual, is
perhaps the best method of approach.

Washington to Welcome Lindbergh

- change of plans has been effected
which will bring Charles Lindbergh,
conqueror of the Atlantic, direct to
Washington from France. He will sail
on Saturday on the cruiser Memphis
and will reach this city, it is expected.
one week later, on the 18th of June. If
this schedule is maintained Lindbergh
will arrive here two days before the
President leaves for South Dakota in
accordance with his own plans, pre-
viously arranged. Thus his return
home will be marked by an official
welcome commensurate with the mag
ritude of his feat and the significance
of his services as a missioner of good
will overseas.
The original plans for Lindbergh's s
return contemplated his arrival in
New York, where preparations have
been made for his reception on a
grand scale. A five-day fete had been
provided for. Now there is disappoint-
ment in New York, and there are
some expressions that betray a keen
sense of thwarted priority. New York
is not accustomed to being made a
second stopping point of celebrities
who are arriving in or returning to
this country, and it is difficult in this
case for it to conceal its emotions. In
timationS are made that there is moth
ing official about Lindberghs flight,
and therefore there should be nothing
Official about his welcome home.
It is true that Lindbergh's flight was
not an official one. 1t was a private
venture, promoted by aircraft in
terests. But the moment the young
Viking of the air took off on the Goth
OF May he became a national char
acter. When he landed in Paris the
next night he was an international
character. Throughout his stay in
Paris he was the guest of the Ameri.
can Ambassador. An official character
has been given to all Of his receptions
and to all the honors that have been
paid to him. He has been received
and acclaimed by the President of
France, the King of Belgium and the
King Of England. 1t is therefore most
fitting that on his return he should be
greeted by the President Of the United
States, his native land.
There is much to be done in the ten
days remaining before Lindbergh's ar
rival to prepare adequately for his re-
ception. The President has designated
q committee of cabinet members to
make the arrangements. The District
Commissioners, who several days ago
transmitted TO him a formal invitation
to visit this city, will cooperate. The
citizens generally will contribute to
the affair. 1t will be without doubt an
impressive ceremony. Both Federal
and local Washington will rise to the
occasion to give appropriate greeting
to the young American who has won
the heart of the world.

Mr.. Hughes, are for Coolidge first,
last and all the time" The Blade
points out that President Coolidge is
ten years younger than Mr.. Hughes.
and the junior Of Lowden by eleven
years" Significance is attached by the
Milwaukee Journal independently to
the fact that "of the 90 men who have
held the office of President only four
nave been go or over when first in
augurated." In view of the demand
made by the presidency on "alI the
Virllity OF strong man." the Nash
vile Banner independently finds It
worthy of note that after the av-
erage man reaches so years his physi-
cal powers, as rule, begin to decline
and life becomes hazard"
How can he look at Elihu Root
and think such a thought?" asks the
New York Sun Gndependent). how
ever. Mr.. Hughes has done the
work of several ordinary lifetimes,
but he is not old" The Utica OBJ
server-Dispatch independent sees
eminent fitness" in Mr.. Hughes, says
that he has been in the thick of
great things a long time" and con-
Guides that without being President
he has been and still remains one of
the great men of the time" The In
dianapolis News independently ar
CUES: Men used to be old at so. but
now they are sheiks at 10. Judging
them by the hats they wear. Though
Mr.. Hughes declination or refusal is
model, we feel that his remarks on
age are 'obiter.'"
Everybody knows" according to
the New York Times (independent
Democratic), what Palmerston and
Gladstone were capable of at a great
age" but the Times is convinced
that "it is impossible to lay down an
absolute rule" agreeing that "the
work of the presidency has tre-
mendously increased"
The Hartford Courant (Republican)
expresses the hope that "the day may
come when the head of this great
Nation will not have to dabble in
the petty policies of congressional
districts, when the President can give
of his best to the consideration of
the country'S policy and forget its
postmasters. When that time
comes" continues the Courant, "there
will be no age limit for a man of the
Charles e. Hughes type"
Mr.. Hughes may feel" admits the
Baltimore Sun independently, that
the time is fast approaching when
the quality of his work may decline.
And 1t would be typical of his fine
pride that retirement should be pre-
ferred to service in a great office
that would be inadequate by his own
high standards if not by the ordinary
standards of others" The Raleigh
News and Observer Democraticl
thinks 'he is. perhaps. disillusioned
and does not wish to invite a repeti-
tion of the great disappointment of
1916" The Roanoke Times Demo
cratic) concludes that Hughes "!Siii oe-
come a candidate only If and when
Mr.. Coolidge decides to retire at the
end of his present term, a contingency
not now des med Hkaly to matss

Russia Calls for Sabotage.

Casting aside the camoufiage which
fore, the executive committee of the
Third Internationale at Moscow has
announced a decision to make more
intensive campaign in support of the
Chinese revolution and to appeal to
the workers of the world to assist
Soviet Russia to sabotage other ma
tions In the coming inevitable" war.
This action, following closely upon the
breaking Of relations with Russia by
the British government, must be re-
garded as a challenge. The fact that
the Third Internationale is not Off
cially identical with the Bolshevik gov
niflcance. 1t is always to be borne
in mind that the two are personally
identical, that the individuals who con-
troll the Internationale are the same
as those who control the government
Whether the Third Internationale is
the creature or the creator of the
Soviet organization is immaterial.
Mention Of the coming inevitable"
war should not cause immediate alarm.
Russia will not assume the offensive
against the other nations. It is not
the policy of the Moscow organiza-
ton to attack openly. 1t works in
sidiously in an effort to break down
national organizations. 1t has under

Some one has remarked (and we be.
lieve it was o,'rselO that there is not
much use trying to overcome innate
characteristics.
In so saying, there is no idea of
combating the necessity for overcom'
ing undesirable traits or habits, but
only recognition of a certain sort Of
futility.
This futility is seen when an ear
nest person recognizes that certain
traits in his disposition are there ''for
keeps" as the children say. He may
be able to mitigate them, if they are
evil. or augment them, if good, but he
cannot utterly wipe them out.
Take envy, for instance.
Who has not known persons almost
utterly controlled by envy? This is
one of the most subtle of traits. if one
may use such an unscientific word as
trait" in this connection.
When one is envious Of another, he
holds selfish i'll will toward the other
because of the latter's superior sue
cess. endowments or possessions. In
a milder sense, the big dictionary tells
us, envy is the feeling that another's
lot or fortune is desirable, accompa-
MED with a sense Of ones own want
or deficiency.
Envy is not to be confused with
jealousy. Jealousy. according to the
authority, is a state of being jealous,
and the latter is defined by the Stand.
ard Dictionary as follows:
"ApprehenSive or suspicious of be-
ing outdone by a rival in matters of
affection or favor; earnestly or anx-
iously suspicious"
Envy, therefore. carries with it a
"srudging sense Of relative inferi-
ority"-that is, an envious person
admits to himself (this is an impor.
tant point that another is superior
to him, in one way or another.
He is not able to see superiority,
and rejoice in it, as happier individu-
ais are, but must grudgingly admit
that the other is superior, after a
comparison with himself. 1t hardly
need be said that he never admits
SO much to the other.
The key word is relative"
Envy comes about because one is
not able to take each case on its
merits. but must invariably make a
comparison.
Now such comparisons are invidi-
Gus. as well as insidious. They tend
to provoke the very thing they are
fighting against-envy-so that here
again we have vicious circle.
The person with an envious disposi.
ton must forever be noting the SUI.
pcrior attainments, leisure, wealth, or
what not. of others, and equally be
comparing his own state, upon each
count.
Thus such a person, moving into
a neighborhood, coming to know all
about others, shortly compares every
one with himself, often enough to
his own hurt.
He, Of course. is the worst sufferer.
The man without a jealous disposi-
ton is able to rejoice in the big
car of his neighbor, even if he have
not one himself. The neighbor's aft
ernoon Of golf Is bully.
The envious man, on the other
hand, miserably compares his own
method Of transportation by trolley,
and his own long hours Of labor at
the office. He visions the other fell
low ,luxuriously rolling off to an aft
ernoon Of play. The picture makes
him acutely miserable.
