Random Notes

The Colonial Council convened yester
day at the request of the Governor fur
the purpose of granting the necessary
authority for paying the salaries OF
School Teachers.
Governor Cramer introduced the bill
with appropriate remarks. ln substance
he said that the Educational Board ofRe'
view had recommended the employment
of two special teachers apd the Director
of Education Wins had opened negotla-
lions with these teachers. The Depart
ment of Education IN September recon-
mended and the administration issued ap
pointment to these teachers without ha-
wing the authority from the Council.
This the Governor said was an over
sight due to the recent changes IN OF
flee. He said he regretted that 1t happen
ed and the administration must take the
blame.
A few ques tons were asked by mem
Der and the hope was expressed that
this would be no precedent. The Cover
nor replied that if he had been here he
would have Investigated before issuing
the appointments, but great care would
be exercised that there be no similar re
currenee.
The Courcil passed the Bill without
dissenting votes.

IT is said that the job insurance
= plan and old age pension and
the plan providing medical atten-
ton by the state was a failure in
Germany. The reason it failed was
because of the sabuses that crept
IN as time went on and the unwill-
ingness of politicians and office
holders to take a stand against
their abuses. They became over
loaded with job holders and cor
rupt with special privileges and
preference. The whole scheme, af-
ter having been tried for some 20
years was wiped out by Hitler. One
writer states that the only way that
the system could have been put to
an end was by a dictator. All other
leaders were afraid of the conse-
quences. ..:... =.

THAT man should be most happy

1ty to earn his way in times like
this. Such gift is worth more
than most any material fortune he
could gather together. If he has his
money in houses, or farms, or stock,
or bonds, the changing values will
see them depreciate often to half
their value. The sense of security
that an earning power gives man
is not equaled by any other posses

rHE GOVERNMENT ware

HlHE GOVERNMENT warehouse
= act enables farmers to seal
grain, receive. certificates that can
be used for collateral to obtain
loans. The plan appeals to many
as better plan than curtailing pro-
duction and destroying SURPRISES.
One thing, however, should be UNI
derstood in the beginning If such
a plan were followed, the presence
of a surplus Of any commodity in
government warehouses would tend
to hold down prices on every bushel
Of grain in the country. Desirable
as it may seem it is not possible to
permit unlimited production and at
the same time hold up the price.
Scarcity not surplus is the control
ing factor in raising prices. If our
production is more than is neces-
sary for domestic demand we must
of necessity, if we would secure
price, either control production or
seek an outlet for the surplus in
foreign markets. Under the pres
ent condition of world wide affairs
to secure an outlet in foreign mar
kets. we must by reciprocal trea-
ties accept agricultural or manufac-
tured products from other coun-
tries in payment since they have no
money with which to purchase for
cash and must resort to the barter
and trade system. Both dilemas of
and their opposition, but after all
the situation have their followers
the problem is a very elementary
one. If we follow one course we
achieve one result. If we follow the,
other course we achieve the other
result. We can't straddle the fence
and thus secure the advantage of
both to the exclusion Of their dis
advantages.

VIE DO not, as some do, contend
w for a redistribution of the

Tor a redistribution OF the
wealth but we make the prediction
that conditions will never be set
tied in this country as long as a
system exists that permits few
people to become vastly wealthy
while the mass of people struggle
along making a bare existence. It
should be obvious to every one who
stops to think that such a condition
and system has within it the
seeds of trouble-the unacceptable
germs of trouble. The most endur-
ing system is going to be the one
that gives the greatest returns to
the largest number. 1t is just as idle
to think that peace and content can
exist in this world along with act
ua1 hunger and want and misery as
1t is for a human body to enjoy
health when its vitals are being un-
dermined by cancer and disease. It
has always seemed to us that the
men of wealth In this country, men
who have much at stake and the
security of whose fortunes depend
so much on an economic balance
and the maintenance of a sanity
of action would be the first to see
this and without governmental in
tervention or other force would
take steps to prevent economic dis
aster and chaos. 1t Is so obviously to
their interest to do so. Instead they
continue to work, blinded always
by greed, for another million, an
other merger, while the very foun-
Gation stones of economic security
are crumbling at their feet. 1t is
not in any wise the view of an
alarmist to state that things can
not continue to go on in the future
as they have in the past. We are
face to fact with some great changes
in human conduct and practice
which it is obviously the part of
wisdom to frankly recognize.
