WORLD WAR MAJOR

Lincoln MacVeagh was born 50 years ago in Narragansett Pier, R. I. He attended both Groton and Harvard and in those years became acquainted with the Roosevelt fam fly. He attended the Sorbonne in Paris for year and went into the Army, rising to the rank of major during the World War and being cited for courage under fire
 When he came back to the United States, he entered the publishing business in New York and after a brief period with a publishing firm struck out for himself in the MacVeagh Pub fishing Company, company known in the trade and out for good bind ings and fine writing.
 During this time, MacVeagn lived in Connecticut and commut- ed. Friends recall that he always carried a copy of Homer in the original in his pocket to read dur ing hours on the train.
 After his appointment in 1893, Macveagh became best known tt the State Department for the hu- nor and wit he would get into his dispatches. The files are full of them. But Of late, his messages and reports have been entirely lacking in witticisns.

country where MacVeagh has not stayed the night. There is a say ing that even the Greeks go to MacVeagh for out-of-the-Way in- formation about their country.
 When MacVeagh looks up at the Acropolis. he sees not the ruins that are familiar to almost every schoolboy, but the majestic marble beauty of the temple which was the inspiration of Pericles and adorned by Phidias, one of the greatest of the immortals among the sculptors. He knows every catastrophe that befell the temple down through the ages to bring it to its present traglc state.
 When MacVeagh stands on the hills above Marathan, he hears Miltiardes harangung the Athe nian generals and inspiring them to that battle fervor that made it possible for a handful of Greek warriors to drive into the sea a Persian host which outnumbered them ten to one and to write into history the first great b. tile which changed the course of the world
 When MacVeagh, seven years ago, presented his credentials to the government, he spoke up in in- formal but perfect modern Greek.

Police Ball Support
Is Well Placed

THE one yearly event that can be termed
exclusive as far as the members of the
Newark Police Department are concern
ed is the annual Policemen's Ball. In it's
broadest sense it means an opportun-
ity for the department to purchase items of
essential equipment not furnished by regu-
lar appropriations, and in lesser terms of
assessment it provides an evening of enjoy
ment and fun that officers can call their
own.
In both monetary and entertainment as
poets the public will be given occasion to
participate. Businessmen and others will be
called upon, as in the past, to subscribe fl
nancial aid to the project, and any support
rendered will be well directed
Not one cent, after payment of expenses
incidental to the ball are subtracted goes
toward social activity. Rather, it will be
wisely expended to add items lacking in
present equipage. Any money spent in pro-
tecting the lives of men who are daily eX-
posed to danger in protecting the lives and
property of Newark citizens is money that
returns to us thousand fold.

Reciprocal Trade
In Newark

THERE may be considerable difference of
opinion in regard to Mr. Hull's Recip
rocal Trade Treaties, but there can be none
in regard to reciprocity on the part of New
ark with surrounding towns. When the
tides of trade turned from Ninevah it dis
appeared from the fact of the earth as a
trading center. And while historians give
wickedness as the reason, it is possible that
some other city offered more in reciprocity
to the neighboring communities.
Newark, to repeat what we have always
claimed, need not take a seat behind any
city of comparable or even larger size, when
it comes to store offerings, values, service
and fair return in merchandise for every
dollar invested. But other cities have de-
veoped these and other enticements to lure
trade that Newark can lay claim to. Some
are attractions in which the mercenary
tinge is ingeniously hidden, but which
nonetheless, are designed as goodwill build
ers. Hence they are trade builders. And
once acquired it is a type of trade that
seldom goes astray.
There should be something at periods of
vantage that would attract and interest
these neighbors whose business we value so
highly. Aside from this we appear to have
everything they want. AS individuals our
merchants are doing all that is possible to
draw into Newark all the business it can
handle So the solution, it would seem, lies
in the collection of effort and ideas. Meet
ings have been held to discuss the plan, and
in the abstract they have been productive
But concretely they could have accomplished
more. They should be resumed if for no
other reason than to plumb the depths of
the problem.
1t will take work but the reward is in
creased business should and could be made
ample.

We Make Our
Own Changes

DURING the visit of England's reigning
monarchs to Washington, Vice Presl-
dent John Nance Garner was quoted as say
ing to the King: " :. in our country it's
different. When we don't like a public Of
ficial we vote him out. We're not stuck
with him as long as he lives"
The ramifications of the remark made by
the Sage of the Usage take in not only pub
lie officials in Washington, but include the
lowliest official in the smallest villages and
townships in the nation.
No one is more cognizant of our ability
to change officials than our own Newark,
Licking County and our Congressional dis
trict. We, elect men to fill the jobs IN the
various political subdivisions included and
we give them their chance. Sometimes their
tactics as representatives of their particular
party are not what we want, and sometimes
the actions of the men on their own voli-
ton are not up to our demands. In either
case we hold that irrevocable club over their
heads the ballot box.
One of those changes was made on Tues
day, Feb. 27. After 10 years of Democratic
representation in Congress voters OF this
district went to the polls and placed that au-
thority in the hands of the Republican
party. The change was made, we believe,
not because of inadequate representation on
the part of our Democratic congressman
during the past decade or more, but be-
cause the pendulum of public opinion was
swinging toward change. In any event the
majority of voters got what they felt they
wanted.
Win or lose it is healthy condition. 1t
shows our Congressman and all other Off
cials just how thin is the surface of the po-
litical thoroughfare on which they travel.
At any moment it may open up and engulf
them.
1t is an ever present apprisal that, be he
constable or president, he must conduct the
public affairs as best he knows how, let the
people know at all times what he is doing /;
and to realize at every turn that he is just
an employe of the people, who as employers,
are entitled to know what he is doing.
There is no "our business" in public life.
All of it is public business; and any hired
man of the public who does not realize this
should be retired at the earliest opportunity
to attend to his own and not the public's af-
fairs.

Make An Effort
To Pay Taxes

T ,EGAL stipulations in the General Code of
Ohio require that lands, delinquent in
taxes, shall be certified to the County Aud
itor as such and thereafter, at a specified
time, forfeited to the state in default.
Every county in Ohio's 88 has it's share
of these delinquent taxes, and no matter
how little they may be, they are too large.
In private hands non-tax producing proper
ties serve only as excess baggage, there be-
ing no derivation of benefit from them for
anybody. And as forfeitures in the hands
of the state they remain dead horses by not
carrying their share of the cost of govern
ment upkeep.
We can say with pride that Licking
County is in the bracket of those states
whose delinquent taxes are low. Last year
they totalled $187 900 on tax valuation of
$77,OOO,O00. In Columbiana County they
ran well over million and in Cuyahoga
they We're completely out of sight.
We should like to see Licking County not
only retain this standing, but better it.
Still more to be desired would be the COM
plete liquidation of delinquent taxes. While
this is near impossible it is not too remote
ly out of reason to make Licking County the
