hectic vermIlion. BY some strange per.
version Of taste such treason against
Nature has been conceived to be beau
tiful, but surely the notion has not
been generally indorsed. To many
persons the sight Is repulsive. II the
beauty specialists now insist, as rumor
indicates, that ladies of fashion shall
have nails to match their gowns, mere
masks to be attached to otherwise nor
NAL finger ends, the present regrettable
tendency will be carried to the ruthless
extreme Of absurdity for which not even
these who make profit from the fad
can have any reasonable alibi.
The professional beautifiers of wom-
ankind must not object if, in view of
current reports. their sincerity is
doubted. They must be conscious of
the fact that unnatural beauty is not
beauty at all. Indeed. half the charm
Of loveliness is its authenticity. If q
charming woman were to be a mere
ensemble Of mechanical devices and
artificial embellishments, she might be
granted a certain moderate degree of
admiration from a distance, but she
never could endure the ordeal of "close-
up" scrutiny. Beauty may be be only
skin deep. as the axiom declares, but it
must be real and true to at least that
degree.
The primary object of feminine beauty
is that Of gratifying the innate esthetic
instincts of men. Dodge the conclu-
sion as objectors may, the undeniable
objective of womanly charm is none
other than that of racial survival. The
beauty shop owners either are con-
scientiously attempting to exploit IRA
tional vanity or they are blundering up
blind alley Of their art. In any case,
synthetic beauty will not do. No prop
er man wants a synthetic sweetheart.

ton of demountable parts and artificial

Much Money Is Being
Paid to Wrong People

To the Editor Of The Star:
Comments from the Milwaukee Sem
tinel, reprinted in The Star of March
z. are based on . mistaken notion Of
what constitutes earning capacity. A
large income does not prove earning
capacity; incomes have many sources,
oft-times mysterious, like black satchels
and tin boxes, to say nothing Of enor-
nous subsidies in the shape Of in
creased land values.
Probably man would work as hard
ing was the only way to obtain any
income. If any man now earns and
receives more than SIC, 100000 per year,
his elimination might be q damage to
the country, but there are not many
earned incomes that big. Psychologists
report, from comparative brain tests,
that the highest possible earning Of
any person is $40,000.00 per year. with
one exception In forty million people.
From this, 1t Is plain that much money
Is being paid to the wrong people.
When 1t comes to actualities, the av-
erage productive capacity Of the in
dividual has been multiplied something
like IS times in the last 100 years; this
means that the average individual Is
responsible for only one seventy-fifth
of his income, while he is indebted to
society for seventy-four seventy-flfths.
Every person should understand that
when he receives much above bare
living he is being paid more than he
could possibly be worth as an individual
living by himself.
The best that can be hoped for, in
material way, is that national income
will be divided in proportion to individ-
ual accomplishments; equitable taxation
Is q means to that end. The Milwaukee
proposal of q 100 per cent tax on In
come in excess Of 100000 IS good
start. w. @. DUNCAN.

Of perception. It has the social sig-
nificance Of keeping people at home
when otherwise they might be wander
ing all over the neiGhboshood map.
1t has the economic utility Of making
work for thousands Of hands at . time
when employment is scant in their trade.
Psychologists and sociologists agree
that It Is exceedingly helpful In all
these respects.
All the world Is . good deal Of q
puzzle these days, and in the circum-
stances the jig-saw puzzle may have It's
place. 1t has been noted that when
an individual attempts to put such Q
design together he desires to "stick to
it" until he has succeeded. Perhaps
the whole population Of the earth is
playing the universal jig-saw game of
civilization. and may achieve some
gratifying sort CT victory.

High Lights on the Wide World
Excerpts From Newspapers of Other Lands

These measures have been adopted,
as can be readily appreciated, for the
better protection and safety of the pub
lie, both those actually participating in
the functions, and perhaps more par
ticularly the innocent bystanders who,
far too often, have been made fellow
sufferers with those directly or indi-
rectly contributory to the riots and dis
orders which have afflicted so many
conclaves and demonstrations of late.
These provisions are aimed especially
at the Communists, who overlook no
opportunity to make any concourse Of
citizens the scene of disorder and dis
cord beneath the distractions Of which
they may the better SOW the seeds Of
their unwholesome propaganda.
Whether the drastic prohibitions Of
this new ordinance will be successful in
terminating the open-air meetings of
the Communists themselves Is a matter
about which there is some debate They
have not shown themselves amenable
to any laws yet enacted to restrict or
mitigate their doings, and it is feared
the embargo and will boldly continue
their professions and other activities
the same as in the past
The likelihood of these disturbances
being aggravated to the same dangerous
proportions as has been lately mani
tested in Spain, and in other countries
Of the Continent, has given impetus to
the procedure Of public officials which
have now been ratified in definite form
to guard the peace and security of the
people In their lives and property. II

II wet March Is followed up by
normally rainy April, this should be
ono Of the most beautiful Springs in
the history Of the city.
Already enough indication Of that
beauty has appeared to make the re-
alizatton certain to those who study the
signs with more than usual interest.
For. be 1t known, there are thousands
and thousands of persons to whom the
appearing Of fresh green at this time
Of year is nothing. or less than nothing,
II that can be.
Rain, to them, Is a nuisance, no mat
ter what 1t may mean to the flowers
and the shrubs and the grass, and
especially to the hundreds Of home
gardeners.
Rain waters the enthusiasm Of gar
deners almost as much as 1t does their
gardens. 1t brings no frowns from
them, but only unuttered thanks that
their pets are being helped SO lavishly.
First indication Of the good health
Of vegetation is the Towering of the
forsythia bushes, which on every side
have opened their small yellow flowers
our favorite shrubs, but We must say
that this season it looks very well, in
deed: it strikes real note in the
landscape after a fairly severe Winter
While long-continued rains have
brought floods and misery in certain
sections Of the country, in this vicinity
they have merely replenished the un-
derlying water table and helped keep
up the temperature Of the air.
Even the slightest rise is grateful
to the things which grow in the earth
A few degrees, to them, at this
time of year. mean q great deal
TWO or three degrees upward, not
downward, maintained for a few days.
put all the growing things on their
several toes, as 1t were.
They prod their intelligences-and
plants have minds, too, Of q sort, there
forth unworded messages to the vari-
GUS growing parts.
DO your stuff" they order, In the
parlance of the young world.
Every branch and bough responds to
the best of Its ability.
Already the Washington world has
forsythia bushes in bloom, their grace
full, sweeping branches covered with
yellow, which. next to green, Is the true
color of Springtime
Is there, however, any distinguishing
color in Spring besides green
Green is what one thinks of, despite
the beckoning yellow blossoms Of the
narcissuses Cor however any one wants
to spell the plural of narcissus, or
however one escapes from the dilemma
by calling 'em jonquils).
Grass is getting greener all the time,
and II that Is commonplace state
ment to you, then you probably need
a jolt yourself out of yourself, and see
the world again with eyes which be-
hold 1t as fresh as nature Is trying to
make it.
Greener grows the grass, and the
branches Of climbing roses. Greener
becomes each iris leaf, now up several
inches.
Old apple trees, picturesque with
gnarled boughs, seem misty green
against the sky. Can it be that leaves
are budding out?
They are! Closer inspection shows
green there. too. along with the In
creased green Of lawns.
Even plots which had assumed the
ugly brown-gray which some types Of
grass unfortunately do take on, as the
result Of Winter, now manifest an un-
mistakable tinge.
1t would be difficult for the most
ambitious amateur gardener to put his
finger squarely on any one blade of
grass, and say, See, here is the green

the Wall Street Journal, with the COM

Der Of producers Is not one any more
than the common practice Of bringing

ship. The real question Is whether
there Is an attempt to monopolize.
Doubtless an attempt to fix prices
through monopolistic control would be
an unreasonable restraint of trade.
But If such organization does not pre-
vent fair competition 1t cannot be
guilty OF an undue restraint.
1t Is evident that the court sees that
a real restraint of trade. eventually
hurtful to consumers and working men
as we'll as producers. comes through an
unbalanced production which eventually
leads to price instability"
Neither farmers, coal miners nor
manufacturers can live if their prod
