The Short Sellers

The senate's investigation into the
short -sellers of Wall Street is bring
ing out some interesting facts. but it
would be mistake to put too much
emphasis on the disclosures.
After all, it is perfectly obvious by
this time that the depression was not
caused by the malign influences of
constituencies stock market opera
tors who spread ruin by depressing
stock prices below their normal
levels. The causes go a whole lot
deeper than that, and unfortunately
there is no such simple remedy avail
able as mere prohibition of short
sales.
In the main, declining stock prices
have been fairly accurate reflection
of the state of industry's general
health. To try to blame the whole
business on Wall Street schemers is
to delude ones self badly.

In 1904. the National Child Labor
Committee was formed. It was found
at that time that. $500 young boys
were employed in glass works and
that 60 per cent Of these boys were
working at night every other week
Sixty thousand children under IA
years Of age were employed in textile
mills in the dusty atmosphere Of the
carding cotton and spinning rooms
Ten thousand boys under IA years OF
|age were working in coal mines, some
of them underground, others in the
breakers where clouds Of coal dust
were breathed into their lungs.
Recent figures indicate that almost
l ,000, 900 children from 10 to Is years
of age were taken out Of labor be-
tween 1910 and 1920, but the end OF
the situation is not yet in sight.
The present economic situation
causes employers in some states tc
seek young people who can be hired
at lower wages than are given tt
adults. Because Of pressure at home
children are found on the streets
selling candy and trinkets, and
many Of them are begging.
In a recent address, Governor

DRAMAS IN MINIATURE
New York, May 2.-Almost each day
of the year, an unusual little cere-
monial and reception goes unnoticed
at the docks and railway stations OF
New York.
It happens so informally and quiet
ly that only the initiate could guess
what was going on. A young woman
steps from the ship or the train. She
is met by an older woman, who greets
her In friendly fashion.
If you could listen in on the con-
versation. as I have on one occasion
or two, you would learn that after
the first formalities of introduction
it went like this: I'm sorry, dear, but
you have made mistake. It would
be better that you went home. We
do not believe you should marry that
man. We have looked him up careful
ly. He is not a fit character"
There is the expected shock of dis
appointment. some tears secretly shed
in a private room-and eventual
resignation.
On the other hand, there may be
happier news and quick preparations
follow for a wedding.
What, you ask, is this all about?
Well, some 300 young women from
every section of the globe arrange to
marry men they either do not know
at all or have not seen in many years
Most of these are Europeans, who
have been matched through agencies
relatives and friends. The Travellers
Aid Society agents act for the pro-
spective brides. They investigate the
man in question. Last year they super.
vised 267 such weddings. When the

The truth is just the contrary. Be-
cause payments to Great Britain from
her debtors approximately balance
her own payments, the Chancellor OF
the Exchequer does not need to in

chequer has so stated.

Secretary Mills Speech
New York Tines

It may be objected that the adj
dress on our public finances which
Secretary Mills made at the lunch
con of The Associated Press yester-
day contained nothing new. But this
Is really one Of its high merits. It is
not time for novelties or daring ex-
periments in the handling of our
great public deficit. The country does
not need Napoleon Of finance"
Poor Richard Is the man for 1t just
now. He would have heartily en-
dorsed the two fundamental PROPOSE
lions laid down by Secretary Mills.
Our financial straits being what they
are, we must retrench until it hurts,
and pay new taxes until they hurt
even more. Otherwise, as the Secre-
tary said, we should be facing Sc
rious impairment Of the credit of the
government, along with an even
deeper loss of confidence, and lin the
end uncontrolled initiation and a sad
day of reckoning"
These are homely truths, old as the
hills, but there is no way for moderns
to get away from them. 1t is well
that the secretary Of the treasury
utters them again, and 1t would be
better still if congress showed greater
readiness to act upon them. It may
not be the fact that they order these
