ID ISHOP MANNING is celebrating
- a triple anniversary. He is IS
years old, forty years in the minis
try, and ten years. he has been
bishop OF New York.
Several editorial commentators
have extended fluctuations to the
Episcopal prelate. A favorite device
is to say that whether or not you
agree with Bishop Manning's views
on life, you must applaud his mill
fancy and his sincerity.
With that I do not agree at all.
The fact that a man is stalWart for
causes in which you do not believe
hardly should serve to endear him.
Too great a stress is put upon
this word sincerity" It is used as
an excuse for bad writing, bad
painting, and bad sociology. AS a
matter of fact, most people of the
world are sincere.
don't remember having met
more than q handful of thoroughly
insincere ones in my life. And even
some Of them might qualify, since
they were sincere in their irSin-
certify.

That alone would put many men TO
work and put stop to two pay en-
velopes going into some houses,
while other homes have nothing
coming in.
Itwould be a good idea for the
unemployed married men to organ
ize to force this issue to a conclu-
sion. After the married women
were put out Of the political Offices,
it would then be easy to have bust
ness men and manufacturers do
the same. The Big Four and the
gas company have shown the way.

Editor Tlmes-SWat the fly now
and do less swatting later on. The
way to stem a fire is to do it before
it makes much Roadway. The same
applies to the pesky fly proposition
These last warm days we have had
have brought out the large flies,
which are to be the progenitors Of
the milliors Of these pests that Will
annoy and kill us during the coming
summer months.
Kill them now, with all the We
hemence at your command. =, 1t is
not sufficient to bar the pesky fly
'buggers" from the house and Of
fce-the main thing is TO kill them.
Grab yourself a hand full Of fly
swatters and get busy. I firmly be-
lieve that if every man, woman and
child were as devoted to Kidding the
nation Of these filthy creatures as
7 am that it would not be but a
matter Of another year until We
would be in "fyless paradise.

Editor Tines-Prosecutor Wilson
dismissed charges against some
boys, including the Governors son,
for shooting and killing q man.
The prosecutor termed it 'inexcus-
able homicide"
To me it was one Of those brutal
unnecessary killings. If you search
the files Of juvenile court, you viii
find a case Of a south side boy who
was playing with a small rifle and
accidentally killed, not a man, but
a mule, that was in q nearby barn.
The parents Of this boy were
charged with child neglect and Sc
verely reprimanded. That boy was
sent to the Indiana boys school.
This boy was not q Governors son.
Oh, no, he was very poor, unable
TO hire an attorney.
The judge had no trouble in ind
ing a law to send him TO the re-
form school. Wilson said he was
unable TO ind this law. Maybe it
applies to mules, not men

CALL TO ARMS
May IS

ON May 18, 1917, President vii
~ son issued a proclamation of
the CONSUMPTION law creating a ma
tional army Of the United States.
The document explained in de-
tail the machinery Of CONSUMPTION
and the procedure by which it
would be carried out. He said. in
the proclamation
1.-THE whole nation must be a
team, in which each man shall play
the part for which he is best fit-
ted. To this end, congress has pro-
vided that the nation shall be or
gained for war by selection; that
each man shall be classified for serv-
ice in the place to which it best
shall serve the general good to call
him.
The significance of this can not
be overstated. It is a new thing
in our history and Landmark in
our progress
1T is q new manner Of accept
ing and vitalizing our duty to give
ourselves with thoughtful devotion
to the common purpose Of US all.
at is IN no sense q CONSUMPTION
OF the unwilling it is, rather, g
selection from a nation which has
volunteered in mass"

Sterilization Must Come

- ~ NlllES+llOll WI wv WI IlO
a LFRED SMITH Of the Union
~ Trust Company, Cleveland, hits
the nail On the head when he says
that continued price defation will
affect wages.
The idea that we can go right
on buying things cheaper and still
get the same old pay check is
ridiculous.
Undoubtedly, certain lines. Of bus
mess, have been making an I'M
reasonably large profit and carry
ing an unnecessarily large overhead,
but the margin is thinner than
most people realize.
AS a general proposition, COM
modify prices must be stabilized or
there will be a general shrinkage
all along the line.
Bankers. business. men, and even
the government itself can not. do
much toward price sterilization
without the public's help
Most OF our great industries have
made honest efforts to maintain
the wage scale, not so much from
humanitarian motives as from good
sense. The buying power OF the
public depends on what it gets for
its work. Vice versa, what it gets
for its work depends on the general
price level Nv .--et. -.-.-- -

TXTHEN you get right down to
wv brass tacks, the public deternl-
ines about every situation.
Attorney General Mitchell says
that the federal government can't
handle the racket unless the states
help.
He might have gone a good deal
further.
States can't handle 1t unless cities
help, nor can the federal govern
nent, states, and cities combined
handle it unless the public helps.
Chicago's financial mess shows
what the public can accomplish
merely by refusing to play its part.
Only about third of the taxes
for 1929 have been collected, while
those for 1880 have not been
spread" ~
The city treasury not only 1t
empty, but must take care of about
$300,000,000 in anticipation warrants.
theoretically, delinquent tax
payers are exposed to a penalty Of
1 per cent each month and to forced
sale of their property after a Ger
tain length of time.
From practical standpoint, how
ever, the proposition Of selling two
thirds Of Chicago at auction is I'M
thinkable.

A Puzzle in Wheat

DELEGATEs representing ten
II wheat producing countries
meet in London to see if something
can not be done to stabilize that
commodity.
Howard Ferguson, Canadian high
commissioner in England, who ap-
pears to be leading the move, has
no faith in reduction Of acreage.
His theory is to apportion the
amount Of wheat each country shall
export.
Whether Russia will agree, and if
so, on wheat terms, is the aL-ira-
portant question.
Before the war, Russia was ex-
porting from one-fourth to one
third Of all the wheat in interna-
tional trade.
During the war, and for several
years thereafter, she exported none,
while Canada, Argentina and the
United States greatly increased their
production.
If export wheat is to be pro-
rated, on what basis would Russia's
quota be fixed?

IheTe Never Was an Issue
Too Big for Men to SoIve
If They Went at It in the
Right Way.
ID RAND and Curtius having
ID agreed not to discuss the Aus
tro-Ge-man customs union, the lat
ter gets around the point by de-
livertng lengthy speech on Gus
toms unions in general.
Interpreting this as a mere trick,
and scared Of what the folks back
home might say if he failed to re-
ply, BRAND tells what he thinks Of
the Austro-German customs union
in particular.
Only the Russian delegate IS
pleased. Whether any one IS afraid
Of the Austro-German customs
union, every one is afraid that
France and Germany will talk
themselves into row.
There never was an issue too big
for men to solve if they went at it
in the right way. By the same to-
ken, there never was one too small
to cause trouble if they went at it
the wrong way.
