STILL TOO MUCH ARMAMENT

A recent analysis of the world armament situation
shows that is really smaller than it was be-
fore the war. European standing armies in 1914
numbered 4,5O0,000 Today they number only
100000 This reduction, however, is due almost
entirely to the forced disarmament Of Germany and
Austria and voluntary limitation of the Russian army.
The allied nations have just about as many men
in the field as they had before they made the world
safe for democracy" Such reductions they have
made is mostly credited to Francea fact that Amer
leans have not realized.
Military expenditures, reckoned in percentage OF
total budget, have gone down. France has cut the
military item from its prewar figure of 30 per cent
to 6 per cent of her total expenditures Britain from
80 per cent IA per cent Italy from 81 per cent to
1s per cent But this does not mean an actual reduc-
ton in money cost. The total expended for arma-
ment is larger than before the because the smaller
percentage applies to far greater total expenditure
Appropriations in pounds, francs, etc. have increased
Why this should be so in time of worldwide
peace with no threat of that ordinary intelll-
gent person can see anywhere the horizon hard
to understand. 1t is, moreover, standing reproach
+ generation processing a desire for peace.
0Today," as the New York Times observes, the
inflated armament reads like negation Of an ideal
everywhere subscribed Big armies inevitably raise
doubts concerning the sincerity of the governments or
the degree to which they have really emancpated
themselves from the old fears and hatreds. The bur
den of armament today is not the money cost but the
moral COST

SOCIALISM SURRENDERS

The Russian Soviet government announces: 10
popularize foreign concessions and attract foreign
capital list Of available concessions will soon be
published in various foreign languages.
So the door is officially opened to foreign capitol
by the Communists at Moscow. They will invite such
capital for industrial and agricultural development
of many kinds including automobiles artificial silk,
tanned leatherpaper pulp machinery, electric power,
fuel production, mining timber, building construction
cotton-growing, sugar-growng and dairying. Not
only will outsiders capital and talents be welcomed,
but they will be allowed to import materials free
of duty if necessary materials are unavailable in
Russia.
Here is the definite surrender of Socialism to
Capitalism Russia has gone far since the Bolshevlst
regime announced in the early days Of the MARKHAM
revolution that Russia would get along without capital
and would not even need money.
This, as intelligent outsiders from the first
was inevitable. If pure Socialism is ever possible
it certainly is not possible to nation in capitastlc
world. SO closely is the modern world woven together
economically that all nations must yield to the same
economic system.

POLITICS BY RADIO

At last radio prophecies made in the infancy of
the industry-away back four five years ago-are
fulfilled. We have national campaign conducted
mainly by radio, with equipment to conduct 1t alto
gether by this many people did not insist on
seeing the candidates personally.
1t is radio, than personal speaking, and even
more than printing, that brings the campaign
home to the people They sit comfortably IN
their easy chairs and get the important speeches with
out taking any trouble to go to meeting. Political
rallies, therefore. nearly obsolete.
The newspapers not sidetracked because they
admirably supplement the radio compaign, by print
ing official versions of the Debates supplying all kinds
of collateral information about candidates and policies,
and giving their own interpretative comment.
Thus altogether the public has by far the best
chance it ever had to become fully informed cam
paign issues and candidates and make up its mind in
telligently.
The greatest service rendered by the radio per-
haps is in giving not the words of political ad
dresses-the newspapers do that-but in bringing
directly to millions the human setting, the play OF
personality and feeling that attends the meetings.
The listeners get the tones of the speakers voice and
at the same time the voice of the audience. The in
terpay and audience the mood in which the message
given and received, the applause criticism that
greets it, the undertones of crowds all this is illum-
mating Over the radio citizen thousand miles
away can get the very spirit of a political meeting

Care of Eggs
On The Farm
Is Discussed

Eggs arc one of our most common
and very important staple foods.
They are in universal use and should
be merchandized in an attractive,
sanitary and fresh condition. SO
often complaints from the house
wife are to the effect that the
volks are pale, the whites dried
down and too gelatinous and the
shells are dirty, checked or even
shiny, which indicates quite an old,
or washed egg.
Imperial Valley eggs when laid
are of equal quality with any egg,
but the way they are handled al
lows them to begin drying which
process cnlarges the air cells. 10
avoid this, eggs on. the farm should
be held in cool place where eVaPor'
alton takes place slowly.
If dirty eggs are produced they
should not be washed until short
ly before they are to be marketed.
Washing takes the bloom off and
opens the pores of the shell to more
rapid evaporation and resulting
deterioration. In washing eggs they
should be soaked in water to which
little vinegar, bonami, or soda
have been added and then the dirt
displaced with stiff brush.
! If possible turn the electric fan
on the washed eggs, which may be
placed in wire tray to dry. Dirty
! eggs need not be produced if the
watering facilities are correct, cX
