Mr.. Melons Pants

Although he is quit of his troubles with budgets
and bonuses, Mr.. Mellon, in London, still has
his worries. Chief among them seem to be pants.
On two occasions he def1ed custom by appearing
at the Court Of ST. James in the chaste habiimentS
known in this country trousers. But the other
evening he showed up at swanky party at Bridge
water house with the ambassadorial legs done up
in black satin rompers.
The occasion was the derby-or is it darby?-dn-
ner given in honor of Lady Elesmere's daughters
debut, and Queen Mary was there. To have worn
anything else, the cables said would have been
''unspeakabe"
We can sympathize with Mr. Melons dilemma
His pediments, like those of his two predecessors
Mr. Kellogg and Mr. Dawes, are nothing to faunt
before royalty. But, after all, chap can't be I'M
speakabe. Now can he?

Adequate Treatment

THE need of adequate treat
Il ment in cases of trench
mouth" is stressed by DR.. Walker.
Tartar and soft material de-
post on the teeth" DR.. Walker
points out. Bacteria impregnate in
this deposit, and although many of
the germs can be killed by a good
mouth wash, the deposit and some
of the bacteria will remain.
mo mouth can stand an anti
septic strong enough TO eat through
these deposits. The best way to
get rid of the disease is to institute
the proper professional treatment"
New York City, Chicago, At
lanta, Minneapolis, San Francisco,
Rochester, Mimi; st. Louis and Los
Angeles were included in the sur
vey, he adds.
The majority of dentists report
ing stated that no widespread pre-
cautions had been taken to stop the
disease, and that it rapidly was be-
coming more prevalent.
Trench mouth, known to the
medical profession as Vincent's in
lection, was identified" by DR.. H.
Vincent, a Partisan, in 1897. 1t got
its popular name during the war,
when it was common among
soldiers.
In its milder form, the infec-
ton is marked by a slight destruc-
ton of the gums, resulting in a
tender mouth" DR.. Walker says.
High temperature, headache, nau-
sea, loss of appetite, bleeding and
glandular enlargement mark ex-
IRENE cases, which sometimes re-
suit in DEATH"

Why Not Simplify Matters
By Having Both ConUen-
tions Request Each State to
Authorize q Vote on Pro
hibition at the November
Election?
NEW YORK, June ia nation
IN wide referendum should be the
first move with regard to prohi
bition. Since no law exists for hold
ing such referendum, it must be
brought about by voluntary action.
William G. McAdoo has suggested
that congress pass special act,
but the constitutionality of such act
would be doubtful. Besides, why
wait until congress reassembles, or
is in the proper mood?
Why not simplify matters by
having the Republican and DEM
ocratic conventions request each
state to authorize vote on prohi-
bition at the November election?
Can you think of anything that
would clarity the atmosphere
quicker, or more definitely, and do
you believe that any considerable
number Of states would refuse?

Just Every Day Sense
BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON

ONCE more we have honored soldier dead
~ Perhaps lay wreathS upon the graves
of our Civil heroes without deep feeling OF
shame, but collectively, do not how dare
go through this performance beside the resting place
OF any man whose life was lost in the World war.
For we have played him false. Our oratory is
meaningless our monuments are empty of sincerity
Urging him to die in war to end war, we have done
nothing at all as government to carry on for the
cause in which we sacrificed him.
We have more tariffs, more ornaments, more war
talk and more jingoiSm right now in America than
we had when these deluded men marched away to
the sound of wild huzzas. Unless faithful
to the principle for which they died, We are weeping
crocodile tears for them
That We have not attained world peace is nothing
to our discredit. But it is shameful that we have
made so few real efforts to bring it about.
TN his splendid book on human stupidity, Walter
l. Pitkn has made some pertinent remarks about
the particular kind of human stupidity that
ages war. It is a fact, he says-and 1 am sure no
one can deny it-that war always kills off the finest
and most intelligent part of a population
Thus the south lost its best during civil strife
because they fought until their strength was gone
Mr. Pitkin considers that France and England today
are much less acute mentally than in 1918.
Who will be ready to challenge this statement?
For these countries wasted the best blood of their
lands and destroyed the brains that might have made
them great forever.
We know that America lost fewer men in the
World war than any other nation We are better
situated for safety than most We have more power
more natural resources and the finest traditions for
leadership.
This being true then the burden of breaking the
way toward world peace must rest on us If America
does not take up the torch dropped by the lfeless
fingers Of her heroes then that torch will be extin-
guished With the ghosts Of 5000 900 martyrs haunt
ing US, dare We give up this hght2

OWEN D. YOUNG spoke well at
~ South Bend to the students of
Notre Dame, and I did not agree
with a word he said. Young's adj
dress was marred by slight lack
of candor, for he commended to us
dictatorial government without ever
once using the word dictator"
Instead, he spoke of putting ex-
traordinary powers in the hands of
the President in times like these. P"
Now, democracy is one of those
things which may not be met with
the familiar phrase, II can take it
or leave it alone" There is no true
conviction in the minds of those
who say, "Of course, I believe in
democracy. but
Like free speech, majority rule
must stand or fall by its value at
those moments when pressure is ap-
piled. If democracy is useless in
a time of crisis, it is not an ideal
worth any mans life or death.
Quite frequently we are reminded
that during the great war many
facets of freedom were shut off, and
some advance this undoubted fact as
an argument for the assumption of
extraordinary powers. 1t is prob
ably true that in surrendering
ancient rights some gain was made
in new efficiency, and still I think
the price we paid was much too
high,

Too Easy to Block

ENDORSEMENT of repeal, or re-
L submission, even by both parties,
will mean little, unless accompanied
by efforts to get action
If we have to wait for tWo-thirds
of congress to say the word, or the
required number of states to act
through their legislatures, or spe-
cialy called conventions, heaven
only knows how long it will be be-
fore we can get a constitutional
amendment before the country,
much less adopted.
Such method Of procedure GER
tainly would afford obstructionists
the best kind of opportunity to strut
their stuff. They would need only
one-third of the members in either
house of congress, or control Of the
political machinery in one-third of
the states, to block progress in
definitely.
With a mandate from the peo-
pie, however, they would find such
a course vastly more difficult.

Over There

Now is the time for the administration to help
the forces in Europe working for peace and revival
Of world prosperity With eye on the closing
sons of congress and the other eye on Republican
convention in Chicago the administration should not
forget that grave issues may determined in Europe
next week
AT Lausanne the nations will hold the long-post-
poned reparations conference, which will include a
discussion of the twin subjects of debts At &C.
neva the fate of the world disarmament conference
will be in the balance. Also at Geneva efforts will
be made to follow through on the recommendation
OF the league commission for general return of the
gold standard
Virtually every major International issue will be
under discussion in way another, except tariff
land that probably will slip in, too.
The Geneva arms conference is almost dead All
the pretty phrases of delegates seeking alibi
not obscure the fact that something must be done
quickly to revive that conference, or the world will
pitch back into pre-war type of armament race
Such military competition would threaten another
world war. Basic causes of war are as acute today
as in 1914
There is no reason why statesmen, under the pres
sure of this war danger and the need for economy
should not salvage the Geneva conference. Musso-
lni Italy to have reversed his earlier mill
tarist policy and now is open to arms limitation
Italy needs the money.
In France, the liberal Herriot just has come into
power This week he announced that he would at
tempt 10 per cent reduction in French military ex
penses and stressed the serious financial plight of
his country. In Great Britain, Premier Macdonald
a pacifst during the last war, is reported ready to
propose at Geneva ten to fifteen-year war truce
Where is the United States in all these last-min-
ute efforts to the disarmament conference and
iron out the reparatons-debt dispute2 Apparently
we are sitting back usual taking negative part
in the disarmament negotiations and refusing to talk
debts.
For better or for worse, the United States, as the
most powerful nation in the world make or break
these European peace efforts We can break them
merely by inaction, for any world agreement that
counts is impossible without cooperation.

Increases Reported

TN New York state, the number of
i cases of the disease have in
creased 100 per cent, according to a
survey made by the American Den
tai Association.
A similar rise Of the disease was
shown in a report from Los Angeles,
where statistics were collected by DR..
1. Disraeh.
DR.. Disraen reported that "95 per
cent of the public health service Of
ficers, 80 per cent of the dental
schools, and 80 per cent Of the prac-
ticing dentists who were questioned
believe that the disease as a whole
is on the increase"
He adds that "of the individual
dentists questioned. the 90 per cent
who believe that the disease as a
whole is on the increase state that
the acute type is on the decline and
the chronic type on the increase"
During the war, acute cases were
sometimes fatal. The chronic cases
are not so dangerous. They are the
result, according to DR.. Walker, of
the reSorting to home treatment on
the part of patients, who discontinue
taking precautions as soon as the
pain and discomfort are relieved.
This, he says, may happen often
before the disease is actually eradi-

Napoleon was, will admit, more

even our pygmy Presidents have

When we go wrong, as we have
done on many occasions and I'M

well to be able to pass the blame up
and down long table. Humble pie

Editor TimeS-ThiS little article
may not reach the thousands Of
World war veterans that it affects,
but to those whom it does reach, 1
am sure it will meet with their
hearty approval, and I do not be-
heve that one Of them can disagree
with what I have to say, unless he
has changed since he was severed
from the service and mustered out
after the close Of the war in 1913
What prompted me to ask you to
publish this article is an editorial
that I read in the indianapolis Star
of recent date that sounded the
idea that the bonus marchers were
led by red propagandistS." Having
confidence in your paper for fear
lessly printing what you believe the
people should know, I respectfully
am submitting this.
Every doughboy, COB, and leather

enough to know what he was going
up against. War is not a lark"

as the family tie that binds" For
those who do not understand what

him.
The result would be that he would
have the whole navy, army. and
marine corps to fight. Those boys

Hold 1t Soon

1T seems to be generally agreed
l. that popular vote on prohibit
ton is in order, that it represents
the only effective way to start
things, and that our lawmakers
will continue to wiggle, wabble,
sidestep, and stall until it is held
That being so, it should be held
at the earliest possible moment.
Conditions being what they are, it
should be held at the least possible
expense.
There is no reason in the world
why both objects could not be salts
fed by persuading the states to
authorize a referendum when they
vote for presidential electors next
fall, and there is no reason to sup
pose that suggestions to this effect
would carry less force if they came
from the two national conventions
than if they came from congress

Flavor Seems to Last

IN many lands in many ages the
L argument has been advanced:
This we must do for a little while.
It is better to take on a pinch OF
tyranny than to suffer much"
But there is no such thing as a
dictator for a day. Here in America
we have not recovered those herit-
ages which we pawned to turn back
the enemy who supposedly was at
the gates. After fourteen years the
hatreds, the REPRESENTATIONS and the
espionage which we shouldered for
the sake of conflict still are with US.
1t sounds persuasive to say that
some Of our checks and balances
are cumbersome in the face of the
immediate crises and that the
strong man system might profit us
greatly during the emergency. So
it might, but it is easier to put a
man on horseback than to drag him
down again.

BELLEAU WOOD sTORMED

ON June II, 1918, American ma
~ rines completed the capture OF
Belleau Wood and repealed three
fierce counter attacks by crack Ger
man regiments.
More than 300 prisoners and
thirty machine guns were taken
during the two-day engagement
German losses in killed and wound
ed were estimated at more than
1000.
The sorely pressed French divi-
sions on the Marine rallied to inf1ict
a crushing defeat on their tormen-
tors when they repulsed an attack
on seven-mile front.
Later in the day French coun-
ter-attack gained 1000 prisoners
and all the ground lost earlier in
the day.
On the Italian front, an Austrian
attack was beaten of after heavy
fighting near Monte Carno.
The British resumed the offensive
for the first time since March on
their front and reported a gain OF
more than 800 yards on a two-mile
front.

Give Voter a Chance

IF the states could be induced to

on the question of prohibition next
November it would do more good
than all the platform planks con-
ceivable.
1t would let us know where we
stand right off the bat, and that is
what we should know before we get
too excited over imaginary posi-
bilitieS.
1t would furnish definite evidence
as to whether three fourths of the
states are in favor of repeating, or
modifying, the eighteenth amend
ment, provided, of course, the prop
oSition was put in such way as to
give the voter chance to register
