Only One Answer

Mayor Sullivan has submitted his budget of city
expenses for next year. a budget from which there
has been eliminated every dollar that by any stretch
Of imagination could be called unnecessary.
He has suggested reduction Of salaries on scale
that not be criticised, too little too great
The people will pay considerably less money this
year for city taxes, despite the fact that the fixed
charges for interest and for utilities will be greatly
increased.
The charges for water and electricity take one
twelfth Of all the money paid for government of the
city. Interest charges take nearly one-seventh.
City officials, even as they study the figures are
confronted with the probability that unpaid taxes
may reduce the revenues that before the end Of
the next year there will be money to pay the
wages Of hremen policemen, garbage collectors and
other public employees who make living in a great
city possible
The whole trouble goes back to condition
a lack of employment for nearly 10000 men and
and consequent loss Of their purchasing power
for business and industry.
The tax problem will be unsolvabe until men get
jobs and again contribute to the maintenance of
government either directly indirectly.
The only answer is not reduction Of wages but
an increase Of jobs. Until get work, all gov
eminent will be menaced by fear of bankruptcy.

loo Small for Office

ID EGARDLESS of his guilt or in
IN nocence, Walker has shown a
smallness of mind which disquaIi-
fies him for any great Office. A
bigger man would have trusted pub
lie opinion to do justice in the end.
Walker couldn't wait. He just
had to be clever, no matter whom
it hurt. He wasn't thinking of the
best interests of New York City or
the Democratic party when he re-
signed. He was thinking of him
self as the spotlight artist, the wise
guy.
He assumes that he has placed
Tammany Hall in a position where
it can't do otherwise than support
him for reelection. Maybe he's
right If he is, Tammany has
something to worry about.
Walker has been described as
typical of New York. To a certain
extent, that may have been true
in flush times. Whether it holds
good for depression times is an
other story.
A good many New Workers are
feeling the pinch of taxation. Where
does Walker fit on that score? What
has he accomplished to reduce the
cost of government? On the other
hand, what has he not done to in
crease it?

grouping is undemocratic and that
it is not practical, because these
children, when they come out in
the world, will mix with all the
others.
However, such argument is illogi-
cal, since it would be in order also
under the circumstances, to abolish
grades altogether and to put all the
children in one grade.
Those especially interested in the
behavior of children feel that spe-
cial grouping may make these chill
dren conceited.
1t would seem, however, that
conceit is trait of character most
likely to be developed when such
child is surrounded with a great
many who are not up to him in in
telligence than when he is put in
group in which most of the others
are just as smart as he is.
In the average class, the espe-
cially intelligent child is a leader;
in a class of especially gifted chill
dren, leadership is to be won only
With struggle and study.

A Voice From 1923

We always have sworn by the political sagacitv
OF Mr. Coolidge. Even when we disagreed with his
polices-which much of the time-we bowed to
his shrewdness as conservative party leader
Judged solely as canny politician, he seemed to
have few equals in history.
But our idol has fallen. In the Saturday Eve
ming Post find Mr.. Coolidge actually using again
the line which went over so big in 1929 forgetting
that conditions in 1882 arc different.
In the old days, Mr.. Coolidge could think up
to meet new conditions. But listen to this:
The safety of the country lies in the success of
the principles of the Republican party The only
leadership this crisis worthy of the name has come
from him CHoover).'
If wholesale unemployment and business failures
are what Mr.. Coolidge calls safety" there are a
great many bankrupt and hungry voters who want
less of it, If the record of President Hoover constt-
tutes leadership, many praying to be spared any
more of it,
If Mr.. Coolidge were as canny as he used to be-
he would not claim that the Republican party is
the one and only success when its present failure
Is known to all Instead, he would admit that his
party has made mess of things claim that the
Democrats would have done better, and appeal
for another chance for the Republicans.
He would say little possible about the Hoover
record, and concentrate on Democratic faults, real
or imaginary.
Perhaps we we're mistaken about Mr. Coolidge
all the time. Perhaps he was not so shrewd as he
seemed Maybe his political genius amounted to no
more than capacity to sit silent and take credit
for departed prosperity which he did nothing to
create.
1t does not require much genius to know that
1882 is not 1928.
If Mr. Coolidge has anything to offer his party
or country in the way of ideas in the campaign of
1882 he did not let it out in his much-touted maya

Gifted Children Need Special Chance

There seems to be about an even
number of girls and boys among
them, and there are just as many
in the rural districts as in the cities
and towns.
These children do not have any
special genius for music, art or lit
erature; they merely have excep-
tional intelligence.
1t is realized, of course, that the
curriculum in most schools is
adapted to the average, so that it is
not easy for the child who is not
quite as smart as the others, or for
the one who is much smarter, to get
along with the group.
The modern point of view tends
toward grouping the gifted children
and the backward ones in special
classes and in adapting the work
that they are to do to their special
abilities.
The result of placing children in
such npecial classes is to keep them
constantly interested and to permit
them to progress much more rapidly
than do the average classes.
1t has been argued that such

QDDEFORD, Me, Sept. THE
- Walker case is a paradox.
Though purely local in origin and
significance, it may throw the ma
tional election. Though bringing out
some of his best qualities, it may
defeat Governor Roosevelt.
Though appearing to offer Tam
many a safe way out of an en-
barraSsing situation, it may lead to
a real reform movement in New
York City.
The weakness Of Walkers position
makes it most uncertain factor.
Primarily it is based on guessWork.
The former mayor does not know
whether he was getting an unfair
trial. He could not know until the
end.
He merely guessed what was in
Governor Roosevelt's mind. That
gives other people the right to guess
what was, or is, in his mind.
The only thing one can be sure
Of is that Walker prejudged Roose-
welt and made his prejudgment the
excuse for bitter attack. He says
that the latter was acting on mo-
tives of political expediency. But
what about his own motives?
