OUR POLITICAL POSTOFFICE

TOR uncounted years the postofice has been
II a synonym for partisan politics. To think
OF it in any other way is a sort Of minor revo-
luton IN itself.
Yet Senator Norris has introduced a bill
in Congress which would effectively take the
Federal Postoffce Department out of party
politics. II provides for a Postmaster General
appointed for 10 years, who would appoint his
own postmasters on a merit basis rather than
have them appointed nominally by the Presi-
dent. but really as a reward for local party
work.
Norris new law is aimed principally at the
old custom Of having the chairman of the
victorious party's national committee also act
as Postmaster General. with control of the
vast patronage at present attached to that Of
fee All efforts to pry Jim Farley loose from
one Of these two Jobs so far have been vain.
Norris bill would end it not only for Farley,
but Tor the future.
II seems visionary. this idea to make the
postOffice a business institution based upon
merit and efficiency" But Norris has slain
bigger dragons than this.

NUDISM NOT NEW?

IT probably isn't the proper subject to dis
cuss these cold days, but science, always
seasonable, has brought it up Dr. L. Vernon
Briggs, state alieniss of Massachusetts, claims
to have discovered an important item about
the controversial topic of nudism. Apparently
it is not new at ALL
Nudism, says DR.. Briggs, used to be prac-
ticed openly in the Seventeenth century and
in Puritanical old New England Nudists, called
"rantors," were wont to march up and down
streets, interrupting meetings and generally
making a show of themselves In June, 1857,
two young ladies, Lydia Wardwell and Deborah
Wilson, were arrested, tied to a whipping post
and beaten because they came to a meeting
entirely Invested of their clothes"
Others say that nudism was practiced at an
even earlier date in the Garden of Eden.

RIGHTS OF THE PEOPLE

IF this is to continue land of opportunity,
the privilege must be preserved to every
man to enjoy the fruit Of his own ability and
labor and to hand it on to his children says
Jouett Shouse. This may be read with nod
ding approval in the homes of those who can
afford to contribute TO the American Liberty
League. but with painful grimaces in the
homes Of the joblesS.
How can a man without job enjoy the
fruits Of his own ability and labor?" And what
can he hand on to his children" except her
itage Of debts and despair?
Mr.. shouse's Liberty League should concern
itself less with abstract rights and more
with concrete rights, the most important OF
which in our economic system is the right to
work
Obviously the privilege to enjoy the fruit"
is limited to those who have the opportunity to
use their ability and labor.

a CCUSIOMED to voicing such formal
phrases as broad fundamentals" and
general principles" State Secretary Cordell
Hull lapsed into the idicm of the people when
he said that the families of our 10 million
unemployed are having a major case of the
filters" because of Notwithstanding tariffs.
But the erudite secretary had enough
provocation to make him forget the language
of diplomacy. He was answering a Con-
gresham who had said that grape growers
were having the "jitters" for fear reciprocal
trade agreements with France and Italy would
food the American market with foreign wines
Our tariff on wine is 81 Is a gallon. Under
reciprocal trade treaty it can not be reduced
by more than so per cent, or not lower than
621z cents gallon. WINNERS admit that the
value of wine in American watts is about 30
cents gallon. So if the Administration goes
the limit in cutting the tariff, American wine
will still have large protection.
The argument that prohibitive tariff is
needed to protect American grape growers or
those who work in the vineyards and wineries
is of course, ridiculous.
American wine producers have just COM
plants against unreasonable state taxes
license fees and sales regulations which
pyramid consumer prices of wine and limit
consumption But they have more tariff pro-
lection than they are entitled to have, even
from strict protectioniSt viewpoint.

PROGRESS IN HEALTH

CON1ETIMES one gets discouraged with the
~ progress of medicine.
One sees. despite modern knowledge and
facilities the suffering of friends. the all
too-wide prevalence of disease. And one Won
ders just how great is this medical progress in
practical results.
Now and then comes an inconspicuous
answer which ought to be more generally
known. For instance, the New York State De-
partment of Health reports that not single
case of smallpox was reported in that state in
1884
In the good old days of our forefathers,
every second face was pitted by the ravages
of this disease. Now sanitation, preventive
medicine, vaccination, have all but con-
ouered it.
In view of the comparative newneSs of
modern medicine as a science, progress has
really been a marvel. Sickness, disease
death may never be conquered. but credit for
the remarkable progress that can be definitely
shown ought TO be given freely.

about heaven only knows what else; and the

What then, can we expect? Probably this:
That the Administration will presently get its
first really big test. We shall discover, then,
whether the upsurge of popular discomfort
which expressed itself in the last two cleo

rising: whether this Administrations left-of-

NERVOUS EDGE" OF
BUSINESS IS HARMFUL
By George Gould Zinc.

BY George Gould Hine.
On Feb. 8, a crowd of Indianap-
oils business men were huddled
around a shell game, eyes glued
on the little pea as it darted, first
under one shell, then under an
other. The pea represented pros
perity; the shells were arguments,
the spieler vas the holding COM
pany doing its stuff in the columns
Of a local newspaper.
The spielec was saying: "Now,
gentlemen, step up and make your
bets. AS sound investors you know
there must be no more of this gov
eminent spending Our private
capital must do the spending. Now
step up and bet anything you want
to bet that the little pea Of pros
perity is under the shell of our
spending. If you win, we give you
back your shirts. If you lose, we
take your pants"
Here was fair enough propo-
sition. on the face Of it. But, if it
had not been a shell game, the
spieler would have gone on to say:
But, gentlemen, before you make
your bets, it's only fair TO tell you,
if you don't already know it, that
private capital is up against it. It's
up against the stone wall of trade
distractions that are now complete

now 80 years old, who was too young
to fight in the World War, but is
a member of the Reserves and
subject to call, but does not say he
would serve in case Of need.
During the Spanish War and

go as they please?
Don't you think defenders of our
country who lie in mud, slush, and
snow for months defending your
class are not entitled to a few
favors from the government they
defended. Would you like a job
where some receive SIS a day and
you receive 81. a

CONGRESS HOLDS THE TIDE

THE present session Of Congress seems to
IL be fooling the experts almost as badly as
the 1884 world series fooled the sports writer's
Drawing analogies between politics and
baseball may be slightly irreverent-either to
politics. or 10 baseball. as you chooSe-out
the ghost OF a parallel is there.
The 1894 series was going TO be "a walk
away for he Tigers. They had the class
the vim. the determination, the whats-it; the
result was all charted in advance.
The only thing that went wrong was that
nothing happened on the field the way it had
been dOped TO happen. and when the dust
had settled the Cardinals had the triumph.
And in politics? Well, this was the ses-
sion in which the Administration enjoyed a
record majority. The Presidents popularity
was at its peak. Congress would give him
Just about what he wanted. and no more.
His reelection in 1886 was foregone con-
clusion. and to so against him in this ses-
sion would be a comparatively painless way
Of committing political suicide.
So what happened? Well, the big work
relief bill aroused much more opposition
than any one had expected. The Senate
kicked over the traces on the World Court.
The whole legislative machinery got out Of
gesr-temporarily, al least. Townsend plan
and bonus bill took on new aspect. To
quote a recent United States dispatch:
The confusion which has become appar-
snt in Democratic ranks has heartened Re-
publicans TO such extent that some Of the
more optimistic are talking now Of 1886 in
stead OF 1910. . The holder Republicans,
IN private conversations. say now that per-
hapS they can make a real fight Of II"
Boiling all this down. We can discover a
tide. or a combination of tides, setting in
directions not foreseen two months ago. The
congressman have been hearing from h6ms-
