Gold Extremists.
(New York World Telegram

President Roosevelts monetary policy appears radical to But actually it constitutes a con- servative force It acts buffer against probable printing press imitation by Congress if the moderate Roosevelt gold trading policy fails to work.
 Those who are viewing with greatest alarm, and those who most active in trying to break down the Presidents policy, apparently fail to sense the real situation. They fail to see that extreme cur rency imitation probably cannot be prevented by any other process than policy between now and the convening of Congress which will so improve con- dtions to take the wind out of the sails of the printing press advocates.
 Critics of the President talk as though he were operating in protected academic groves far from the hard realities of the nations worst depression and the mass discontent caused by suffering. They talk in awed tones of the gold standard though lit had produced lasting prosperity.
 If the bankers and orthodox economists are right how does it happen that their precious gold system helped to drag us down to depression and helped to keep there during almost four years?
 It was not the Roosevelt monetary policy that brought low. It not the Roosevelt monetary policy that broke the banks, threw millions of un- employed workers on the streets bankrupted agri- culture and destroyed American confidence and hope All that happened under the system to which they wish us to return a thing of perfection.
 President Roosevelt is trying to avoid two ex- tremes.
 One, the extreme of gold slavery which doubled the value of the March, 1883, dollar in terms of 1926 purchasing power which prevented debtors from paying their debts and which depressed prices to disastrous levels
 The other extreme is uncontrolled imitation of the printing press type While the critics call ing the President names for his restrained efforts to adjust the dollar to real sound money level they ignore the fact that continued defation oi prices would almost inevitably swing the country to support of the printing press panacea.
 The President should be getting the support rather than the opposition O. those who fear extreme imitation.

PROPAGANDA AND RESTRAINT.

Naz propaganda in it's American phase has and to the front in recent weeks. It has passed the point of sympathy for the German movement and has become a skifuly organized agency in many cities.
 Because it is based in large part on racial antagonism, it is repugnant to thinking Americans. But what is unwelcome does not necessarily become proper object for official disciplinary action.
 Perhaps the real problem here is in the secret nature of NaZi agitation. What is known and understood is rarely menacing. What goes on secretly and subversvey there is to dislike and fear. In this fashion it appears that orderly investigation by competent authority not to harrass any propaganda group, but to put it on record is the sound approach.
 Publicity correctS multitude of evils, submit ting foolish and unreasonable ads to the glare of nationwide ridicule. By dealing openly with Con- munism have made it appear futile thing in America no matter what it is in Russia.
 It would be well, therefore, to learn the facts of Nazi activity and to learn them without arousing counter emotional movement which would lend itself to the persecution of such groups It would seem however that the weighty problems of America would be quite enough to occupy the minds of all groups of citizens without the empty effort to transport Old World political quarres to the United States

Labor Unions and the CWA.
Cincinnati Enauirer.)

One understand the inSiStence of union labor groups that the CWA observe minimum wage scales established in various trades. Those men feel that they have made sacrifices to maintain what they regard equitable wages. The CWA in Cin- cnnati and elsewhere, has taken cognzance of this situation, and is paying above the union scale for common labor and is meeting it in the of skilled labor.
 There is an unfortunate discrepancy between the wage rates paid to skier labor in line with union scales and those paid to executive personnel The latter although holding responsible jobs in the supervision and planning of CWA projects are not paid any better and in many not well as Lnelr skilled SubordinateS.
 The most serious employment problem of the CWA is the question of employing union and non- union workers on the same projects. Seeking to apply the rules of the closed shop to relief prof lect, a group of painters buntly asked the city to deny work to another group of men who do not happen to be affiliated with the union It is diff ficut to imagine such selfish attitude, when the funds made available essentially relief rather than necessary expenditures. Organized groups of workers might properly ask that the service of the City Welfare Department and the Associates Charities be denied to all those holding union lcards
 The Civil Works program is nationwide under taking. It has for its object the placing of the largest number of men possible in employment lat a living wage. The only test to be applied to candidates for this work is their actual need for assistance. There should be, and doubt in Cincinnati there will be, discrimination because of race or color political affiation utilization with any organization of labor.

JANUARY l, 1914

JANUARY 1, 1914
 New Years had been ushered in with pomp and ceremony. The wild bells rang out" whistles screeched, the boom of heavy ex- plosives reverberated among the hills and the din was heightened by strings of firecrackers and the sharp crack of revolvers.
 Receptions were held in many homes during the afternoon when the spirit of the day, good-fellow- ship and genuine good wishes were extended by friends calling during open-house hours.
 Judge R. w. Jennings was to leave Vancouver, B. C., on the Princess May and was expected to arrive in Juneau on January 6, one day late for court.
 The Orpheum Theatre opened the New Year with a banner packed house, a critical but highly pleased audience and a first class show "As You Like It." adapted from Shakespeares play was shown in three reels with Maurice Costello and Rose Coghlan in the leading roles.

If tho cxper. fence of other states affords any guide, this would probably provide only temporary relief, If it did oyon that. Eventually 1t seems probable that it would tend to expand local expenditures to tho point whore tho demands upon tho local taxpayers would be as heavy as ovor.
 Finally, tho st1to might take over certain functions now nllocnt- cd to local governments and h. nance them by means other than the state tax.

A playful little impulse of Sat. urday afternoon lost It's humor this morning for Louis Carchinali, 4S,.who lives at 42 Ward street. Louis. ip a moment of giec Satur- day, put hls foot through the dis play window of store in Exchange place. This morning. however, in city court, Judge John F. McGrath gave Louis six months in jail to laincnt the prank.
 Spring was in the air Saturday afternoon even In Exchange place. and nowhere did It bring moro joy than to the heart of Louis. Ono of large throng, he skipped his merry way about the center of the city. He came in front of the Cameo dress shop, ut IF South Main street, stood in front of the large plate gluss window and ruminated for moment.
 The moment up, Louis grace. fully lifted his foot and let It fly in the direction of the glass. There was chatter and Q Jnngle as the window was shattered. Louis smil- cd. began to whistle a tune and strolled along South Main street.
 Just then Patrolmen Bill Feeley and Ed Cnss happened along. They listened to Miss Ogdcn's story and took Louis in tow.
 In court this morning, Louis ro- gretfully pleaded guilty to breach of the peace. 'Someone told me to do it." he said.
