Overrides Econou,y Idea

Washington, Feb. 10 (UP)-The house overrode President Coolidge's economy program today by adding S641.000 to the war department ap- propriation bill for training reserve officers The vote was 2es to s5.
 The amendment, by Representa- tive Wurxbach. rep. TexaA increases the total for organized reserve ofli- cers training to 49.6b7.000. permit ting training for 2o.000 officers an- nually instead of 16.000.
 The house later will vote upon other amendments adding to appro- priations approved by the adminis- tration. , Subsequently,. the administration suffered another defeat when the house by a record vote of 240 to 119, adopted an amendment by Rep resentative Speaks. rep. Ohio, pro- viding s500,000 for army rifle matches at Camp Perry. Ohio. this summer.
 The house then accepted without q record vote the McDuffie amend ment adding t5,sSe.s10 to the S5o.- 000.0 in the bill for rivers and harbors projects. A standing vote showed 164 for and s6 against. The increase was opposed by the budget bureau.
 Naval Costs
 President Coolidge's proposed i've year naval building program. with construction already authorized and under way, would cost t4,176,42S.- 900, it was shown in an official navy department estimate submitted to the house naval affairs committee.
 Seventy-one new ships would be laid down fin five years. beginning in 1929. and would be completed by 1927. Tho expenditure would be spread over nine years from 1929 to 1887. The enormous figures of tho navy bore out the contention of the naval committee members that the program would cost far more than tho Ss00,0OO,0O0 estimate originally submitted.
 Total Figure
 The total figure h made up of an annual outlay of approximately S1l7,O0o,0 900 for the new program over the nine-year period plus . regular maintenance appropriation each year, which will run between $500, 900. 900 and t350.ooo.oo0.
 The {l,176.416.0o0 includes air. planes and aviation personnel neces- sary to man the five aircraft carriers and 25 cruisers provided in tho pro- gram. A total of 1.4s0 new planes would be necessary.

UNCLE WIGGILY AND THE
CLIMBING VINE

Around an old, dead tree in the
woods twined a stout vine which
had climbed uD from the ground un,
til it clustered far at the top. In
summer the leaves on the vine were
green and cast pleasant shade for
gra>shoppers and June bugs.
But now that winter had come
and Jack Frost had touched the
vine with his chill fingers, the
leaves had turned brown and shrivel.

the vine, but some still clung to Ii
and the vine itself was still twined
around the old dead tree like a
ladder up which, sometimes, the boys
climbed when they were playing
Scout and Indian.
Dear me!' said the vine to the
Old Tree one day after a crowd of
boys had been climbing up and
down its twining loops. GLOW lone

"He just passed here! l can smell

CHICAGO IN FOR 1T

Chlcago'S laWleSSneSs and carnival of crime has

Now Chicago is reported to have achieved the ult-

and half million dollars in salary checks And this
only three weeks before Christmas when every saared
American is scrimping and saving for the annual

to deliberately the wrath and fury of thirteen
thousand women, Chicago women at that. If the
teachers take the matter of collecting into their own
hands, the Chicago officials responsible for the state
of affairs, may to learn that gangsters holdup
and machine gun artists only amateurs when it
comes to raising racket.
Our sympathy is entirely with the school teachers
They have earned their money and entitled to it.
Certainly city which boasts of being the second arg
est in the country and which takes unholy glory
throwing money right and left for "rackets' of
sort another, should make provision for paying its
just debts. When it is unable to pay its debts to
women, little be said of its chivalry if one can
imagine any such commodity existing in Chicago.
If memory correctly, it was Chicago's
school system that caused Big Bill" Thompson so
much annoyance. We would suggest that he might
borrow enough from King George to pay his teachers
their Christmas salaries but the Kings illness prevents
such a STEP

request loan from Mr. Scarface Al" Capone, to tide
him over the present financial embarrassment.

THE CHILDREN CALL

Once more the popular Christmas Seal has made
its appearance in Imperial Valley. giving residents
here opportunity to help worthy and at the
time add to the atractiveness of their Christmas
packages.
The work of the Christmas Seal is something that
can be seen by anyone interested Each year a group
of youngsters in need of medical supervision to build
them up into strong adults, camps at Hipass. The
means to maintain the camp come from the proceeds
of the Christmas Seal sale.
The seals sent out in parcels of one hundred,
which sell for dollar Of this dollar seventy-five
cents goes to work right here in Imperial County The
remaining twenty-five cents goes to the support of the
state organization to aid in the work of combating
tuberculosis.
In previous years too many of the seals have been
returned to the county committee by those who refuse
to purchase them A dollar is not much to give Very
few of those to whom seals sent cannot afford
dollar 1t is little enough to give as Christmas gift
to children in need of assistance
Before sending your seals back unpurchased, think
it over bit and ask yourself if you feel comfort
able after refusing to help children 1t is difficult
to turn down many so-called worthy causes" but
where children concerned it should not be done.

A DARING DECISION

1t will be interesting at least to watch the reac-
tions of the public to the decision of Ohio Judge
imposing sentence of three years birth control upon
a couple who applied to him for divorce. The judge
only refused the divorce, but imposed the birth
troll sentence
Just where he gets his authority for such step is
rather puzzling, but then Americans pass many
thousands of laws each year it is just possible that
there of them to give the Judge the power which
he assumed
But even Judge Ben Lindsey - renowned birth
control advocate that he is expresses the opinion
that judge has the right to say to any
"4ou shall have no children"
The right wrong of birth control is something
on which many of the best minds in the country
unable to agree. Sincere men and women advocate it.
Others just sincere consider it unnatural and wrong.
1t would seem that if there is one place where no
outsider has any jurisdiction it is in the marriage
lations of husband and wife.
The couple in question the parents of three
children in three years Against that terrible record
we can recall any number of families where baby
appeared regularly as the trees blossomed in the
spring with bad results to parents other children
There was not abundance of worldly wealth in these
homes, but there was plenty OF love and Willingness
to sacrifice That does make difference, and of
course these desirable attributes have gone out OF
fashion in many quarters.
Our opinion upon the judges decision is that he
has gone altogether too far and # the couple IN cues
ton should refuse to abide by his decision he would
have sweet time forcing them to do SO.
