Depart from evil and do good; and dwell forever. —Psalms 37:27. Should a Minister Hang a Man? SHOULD a minister of Christ’s gospel resign from the office of sheriff rather than hang a murderer sentenced to death? And especially should he hang a murderer whom he believes to be entirely innocent of the crime for which he was convicted? These questions are causing widespread discussion as a result of the fact that Rev. W. E. Robb of Des Moines, an ordained minister of the Church of Christ, is also sheriff of Polk County, lowa. The other day he sprung the trap which sent a murderer to eternit^. This has caused a storm of criticism from all over the country on the part of those who believe he should have confined his activities to administering spiritual comfort to the doomed man and have resigned rather than to have taken the life of one of God’s fellow creatures, in violation of Scriptural injunctions. But Sheriff Robb’s conscience is clear. He was convinced that the man was guilty and says he did only what he swore to do when | he took the oath of office. He scorns the advice of those who urged him to delegate one of his deputies for this unpleasant duty, saying that not only would he not have escaped any responsibility thereby, but would also have been guilty of moral cowardice. But ParSun-Sheriff Robb now faces a much more perplexing

problem. Another man waits death at his hands, whose innocence of the crime for which he was sentenced to hang the sheriff not only’ stoutly maintains, but whose acquittal he used every means to secure. •' But the law which he swore to observe when he took his oath of office does not leave a sheriff any discretion in carrying out the death sentence of a court. It’s a tough dilemma and the preacher-sheriff has not yet indicated what he will do. What would you do if you were in his place ?

Mahomet Comes Back CHRISTIANITY has carried the mountain to Mahomet. The differences among Christians in Europe and the indifferences of Christians in America have allowed the Crescent banner, freshly drenched with Christian blood, to cross once more from Asia to the frontiers of European civilization. All of which would be bad enough a-s it stands, but the worst, in all human probability, is yet to come. The Turk is a firebrand and his presence back in Europe, once more in the midst of the seething Balkans, is like a flaming torch thrusting about in a powder magazine. Sooner or later there is bound to be an explosion. The rehabilitation of Turkey in Europe marks the betrayal of France of her recent allies, Roumania and Jugo-Slavia. These two nations, but recently vassals of the unspeakable Turks—have long experienced the callous brutality and the relentless reaction of the Mohammedan character. France’s insistence upon the Koran’s return to Europe is short-sighted statesmanship even for post-war diplomacy in Paris. The little entente no longer can trust France as against Turkey; while the Turks, always at heart in sympathy with German militarism, have been assisted by France to become formidable secret friends of Germany in rehabilitation. But, Franc does not share the major responsibility alone. This situation, so dangerous to the peace of the whole world, would not have arisen if the American government had been loyal to its international duties. It is a calamity to civilization that America dwells in unctous isolation while seeds of anew world war are being sown.

The Ex-Kaiser PINK shirts and pink collars are being sported by the exKaiser, reports a London Daily Mail correspondent after a visit to Holland. All around, Bill is perking up. * He is emerging from strict seclusion, leading a freer existence, and works daily in his garden in full view of any one passing the castle home of the notorious exile. Chopping and sawing wood? Not these days. Instead. Bill is thinning out the fir trees along the road, clipping and trimining like a barber. His gang of helpers work with him. .just inside the wire fence, in their shirt sleeves. Occasionally, even Bill is reported to strip off the coat of his gray suit. “Hq talks incessantly”—but his talk is limited to trees and landscape gardening. The ex-crown prince “pays occasional visits to his father, and dashes all over the country in his new motor car. He spends much time playing lawn tennis and croquet, and he sees many visitors.” The story in Holland is that he would visit his father more often if it were not that Bill makes him help in the garden. Recently he took a two weeks’ vacation while plumbers installed a bath at his island home. What do you make of that, Watson? Well, Sherlock, it looks as if the ex-crown prince expects to spend another winter where he is. Important ? To some extent, since he is not anticipating any immediate return to Germany. It’s getting along, now, near that historic date, Nov. 11. The war soon will have been over four years, though “it, seems like yesterday.” I" our years ago, the slightest authenticated move by either the Kaiser or the crown prince was “big news.” Today interest in the Hohenzollerns is at low ebb, in America. Nevertheless, it is interesting to get a summary of how the two are reacting under exile. The ex-Kaiser sporting a pink shirt while playing as a gardener! The ex-crown prince elated because he is'going to have a real bath tub! Gosh, haven’t times changed!

CANADA’S PROBLEM Railways Lose Money

By SEA Service OTTAWA. Canaria, Sept. 27.—1n a determined effort to solve the nat onal railways problem, which is eating tremendous holes in Canada’s brink account, the Canadian government has made a clean sweep of the present management. It has installed a practical railway man as president and general manager, and has appointed a governing board of directors made up of prominent men representing the various sections of the country. Dur ng the financial crisis that accompanied the war, the Canadian Northern Railway, a complete continental system from Montreal to Vancouver, fell Into financial difficulties. Rather than face a panic that might have foHowed a receivership, the government. which was the chief creditor of the road, took it over. Shortly afterward the Grand Trunk Pacific, built less than ten years ago as an extension of the old Grand Trunk across the Rupert, also defaulteii>g3i£Gk^tauin-

terest, which, 'for the most part, had been guaranteed by the government. The parent Grand Trunk, being legally liable for the Grand Trunk Pacific’s debts, after a period of arbitration, joined the other lines on the govern- ; rnent doorstep. The Canadian government, through a board of management, now operates a transportation system that includes two complete transcontinental railways, built as competing lines and largely duplicating each other, making a total mileage of over 21,000 j miles. While the Canadian Pacific I Railway, which also runs parallel for a large part of the route, has con- | tinually made money and paid its divi- ; dends. the government system has !>een operating at a huge deficit ; amounting, with interest charges, to i over $100,000,000 a year, or more than the total receipts from the Dominion ! income tax - * This has aroused an active move- ■ merit in favor of turning the system | over to private ownership.

HEW WOROADDID TO PEASANT TALK IN SOVIET RUSSIA

Represents Pronunciation of American Relief Administration. By RALPH TURK ERR United News Staff Correspondent LONDON, Sept. 27. —In bringing relief to a famine-stricken people, the Americans have Introduced anew I word into the every8’ day vocabulary of 1 Soviet Russia. This word is murmured ! with heartfelt gratl- , tude by the peasant masses. It is shouted joyfully from the lips of children. It is a word to conjure with in Russia to--•he new word is “ahra. It represents . Jt nunciatlon of “A. R. a JE& Hk . A.” the three initials which symbolTURNER ize the American relief Administration, and all the work that organization has done. The birth of the new word, and what it represents In Russia-Ameri-can relations, was described to the United News, by E. M. Flesh, president of the United States Grain Corporation, and controller of the American Relief Administration. Mr. Flesh also was a member of the purchasing commission appointed by President Harding to dispose of the $20,000,000 voted by the American Congress to the Russian famine sufferers. ‘‘Next to the actual conditions Iti Russia,” Flesh told the writer, “what Impressed me most was the complete realization every one In Russia had of he work America has done. In the famine districts the sight of an .American is a signal for a demonstration. When we visited the feeding kitchen now being maintained In the ; Czar's old palace at Tsarskoe Selo, the children jumped to their feet and shouted a spontaneous greeting of ‘Spasibo,' the Russian for ‘thanks.' And as for the new work ‘ahra’—it is a magic talisman.” Flesh has just concluded a month's ! inspection trip through the famine j regions and Is now en route to Wash- I ington, where he will report to Sec- j retary Hoover.

Letters to the Editor

DEFENDS FRATERNITIES * “Greek” Suggests Remedies m Answer to “Barbarian.” *To the Editor of The Times “Barbarian” suggests the investigation of the college fraternity system. The college fraternity has been investigated over and over again. Legislation pro and con has been "hashed over” ad infinitum. But like Tennyson’s river, the system, if such it may be called, keeps moving. In the final analysis, the origin of the college fraternity can be laid to an element of human nature, namely an innate desire for closer friendship and comraderie than ordinary college life provides. It is an intensification of man's natural gregarious spirit. This is really the basis of all society, so it can't be all bad As in every other human institution perfection is out of the question. The fraternity has its faults and Its virtues, but the continued existence and the rapid expansion of the system seem to point to the predominance of the latter. Fraternity leaders are striving to eliminate the weak points and the fraternity of today is a far different institution from that of a decade ago. "Barbarian” bewails the plight of the man who would like to belong, hut who doesn’t. The answer to that | is—more fraternities. Every fraternity organized during the past fifty years or more was founded by men who “didn’t belong.” Every year “locals” are being founded by just such men and every year “nationals” are issuing charters to those self-same 'locals.” If the disgruntled non-fra-ternity men would get together and paganize new “locals” or even new nationals,” some time the Utopia would be reached where every college man would have the opportunity at least, of'becoming a “Greek.” The non-fraternity man, who simply sits and moans his fate and cusses the syßtem in general, has himself to blame. Most opposition to fraternities, both iegislati'. and otherwise, has been inaugurated by men who have been left out and whose chagrin has later led them fight the system which they wouli have joined had they been asked. If the non-fraternity men and women would get busy, as the writer

SOUTH WAGES WAR ON COTTON CROP PESTS WITH AIRPLANES

By NEA Service MEMPHIS, Tenn., Sept. 27. —War i.o the death with airplanes and poison gas barrages against the southern cotton pests—the boll weevil u.d the pink boll worm—has entered the first stages of battle down South. Cotton farmers are already seeing the saving of crops through this fight being made by the Army air service. Add to this the scheduled Oct. 3 meeting of Governors and three representatives from each of'the twelve cotton States, to consider plans for securing uniform legislation for control of the boll weevil and the pink boll worm, and there is plenty of reason for rejoicing over the cotton situation, say southern planters. The cotton pests came into the United States from Mexico a few years ago. Each year the amount of cotton destroyed has grown until the South, as a whole, reports from a third to two-thirds crops loss after each plant ng. Many Efforts Fail Hundreds of various plans have been tried out in an effort to head off the weevil and the worm. All have been failures. Then, from Congressman Wilson of the Fifth Louisiana district, and B. R. Coad, in charge of the delta laboratory of the Department of Agriculture, came the hunch for an aerial attack. Calcium arsenate is fed into the draft of the airplano propeller as It flies low over the cotton fields. The tremendous rush of air in the wake of the plane spreads the poison on the cotton plants with much force.

SOCIALISTS UNITE FOfflllllG MIGHTY GERMAN CROUP Independents and Democrats Heal Their Differences to Control Reichstag. Bp United News BERLIN, Sept. 27. —Independents' and Social Democrats have healed j their differences and joined in form- | ing a mighty united Socialist party I which will ha\’e a block of about 180 votes out of 460 in the reichstag, and a following estimated at more than a million voters. The unification took place at Nuernberg. Enthusiastic applause echoed through the big Hercules velodrome as pledges to work hi unison for the uplift of German workers | were made by Herman Mueller for the Social Democrats, Herr Crisplen for the independents, and Marx’ Juchacz for the women. Speakers were also present from Ausland. The speeches were followed by a huge demonstration marking the final reunion of these long-separated parties, j The tUFfuill portion of independents I That w/iuld naturally expected to Igo to the left will bo absorbed by ' the Communists. This meeting marked the final step ' ! in the process of unification which I h;is been proceeding gradually since j the Independents split definitely into I Socialist and Communist groups at Halle snearly two years ago. Program of ‘United Party The program for the united party | contains many social measures for j the welfare of working men and worn- j en. It looks forward to a foreign policy in which reconcilation will play a greater part and pledges the mem- j hers of the party to work for greater socialization of industry, especially the key industries. The record of German .Socialists since the war. however, indicates that pure Socialism is still in the far dis-1 tant future and the party is expected j to proceed conservatively, centering j its efforts largely on achieving do- j sirahle social, reforms and insisting | particularly on a better distribution | and price control for foodstuffs, clothing and coal this winter.

i suggests, "Barbanan’s" objections ! would become groundless. The so- ! cial disadvantage of the non-fraternity ! man would be eliminated. College politics would have to be blamed on something else. Anti-fraternity legislation would disappear, and last, but not least, every college man could i d,splay a vest plastered to his heart's | content with “Attleboro diamonds " As for the "wily politician,’ he is one in a hundred, and with the new Utopia in force, he would soon losehis identity, even as the drop in the bucket. “GREEK ” Suede Handbags New handbags of suede come in soft pastel colors and have a deep fringe cf the leather over the bag.

GOOD NEWS It II BERTOS BRALEY I LIKE the friendly letter that is full of pleasant chatter, Or the letter from the folks back home; And the gushing, girlish letter crammed with bright and slangy patter. And the letter from across the foam; I like the prim epistle from some dear old maiden auntie, And a comrade’s letter, true and tried; But the best of all these missives, though it otherwise is scan y, Is the letter with the check inside. THERE’S the letter full of crosses (indicating loving kisses) Which will give each lover's heart~a thrill, There’s the letter (far from joyous any missive such as this is) Which “begs to call attention to a bill;” Business letters, begging letters, letters gay and letters merry, \ Letters that you want to show—or hide; But the best of all epistles—though the thought sounds mercenary— Is the letter with the check inside. FRIENDS may write to calm and cheer you in a manner sympathetic, And it’s nice to have them write that way. Other folks may spur you onward with phrases energetic. And—you MAY take their advice, some day; But when things are going badly with no sign of getting better • And you think the game of life's a snide, It’s then you got new courage from the truly helpful letter, The letter with the check inside!. - (Copyright, 1922, NEA Service)

In his report to Washington of the first experiments he said in part: “With two planes detailed by the air service I believe we have demonstrated that the airplane can be successfully used for insect control. “Results of the poisoning have been sj exceptionally good that many districts are ready to undertake community poisoning. “Community poisoning is much more effectual than individual efforts because it practically eliminates the necessity for the late summer application due to weevil migration from unpoisoned cotton.” And in the meantime, much interest is shown in the coming cotton session to be held here.

kets were over-supplied as a result of the good general crop. From a general standpoint, a preliminary survey of strike effects indicates that little damage has been done to our overseas trade. During tho period from July 1 to Sept. 1, 1922, our exports were valued roughly at $603,000,000, compared with $691,000,000 In the same period last year and $348,000,000 In July and August. 1913. Carloading figures for July and August, 1922, show that the railroads loaded with revenue freight over 500,000 more cars than they did in the same period In 1921 when there were no strikes. It seems safe to assume that because of the constant increase In the number >of cars loaded during the strike with merchandise and miscel lar.eous freight, the natural growth of businesn, both domestic and export, was only slightly retarded.

TIFF COST WILL HIT FIVE BILLION. DEMOCRATS SAY Opposition Declares Bill Will Only Give Industry Two Billion Worth of Protection. By CLAYTON WHITEHILL United News Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Sept. 27.—The new tariff, according to the Democrats, will cost the American consuming public more than $5,000,000,000 annually or about $45 per capita, and will give industry only about $2,712,000,000 worth of protection.* This is the main point of attack on the Administration party in the Democratic campaign textbook which has just been made public. The textbook studiously avoids any mention of the League of Nations and of the foreign policy of the Republican party in the present Administration, The Republicans have not completed their senatorial campaign text took as yet. The additional cost to thE individual consumer is based on the gVand totals on each staple commodity, averaged among UJ0.000.000 persona—an individual increase of $45 per person. At this rate, Democrats claim, the annual outlay of the average householder for sugar will increase $1.90; for meats and fish. $3.50; for woolen goods, $5. The Democrats predict that men’s woolen suits will cost at least from $4 to $6 each more this autumn than they cost last year, and men's woolen overcoats will cost from $5 to sls more' for hosiery and knit goods, $5.25; for corsets, 55 cents; for cotton manufactures, $5.50; for silks, , $4.50; for glassware, 60 cents; for I aluminum pots, pans, etc., 40 cents; for enameled ware, 85 cents; for brick, tile, terracotta, etc., 60 cents; for electrical supplies, $5.25; for window glass. 65 cents; for cutlery, SO cents; for structural iron—or Interest to the home builder —33 cents; for sewing machines and parts, 30 cents, and for toys, 20 cents. While the Democrats admit that most of the household articles on which the tariff is unusually high are made in America and that the purj pose is merely to keep out foreign | competition, they contend that the American manufacturer will charge an excess profit on domestic goods nearly equal to the tariff duty on similar articles made abroad. TONGUE By DR. R. H. BlkniP HE tongue rightly has been called the y index to a disort > dered stomach. There are few §§ I physicians, indeed. who would fail to U _yf recognize at a I V " / glance the heavily cated, gray of yellowish tongue, with tip and margin of SgV red, accompanied by other character————————J jstic symptoms, as denoting that commonist of all ills, indigestion. The tongue serves also as an index to many other diseases. On the tongue of a smallpox patient are distinctive vesicles (blisters), while the sufferer from measles has small red spots, tipped with white. In case of pernicious anemia, the tongue Is exceedingly pale and bloodless and generally becomes very sore. The tongue in the condition of a hemorrhage resembles that of anemia. Tuberculosis of the tongue commences on the tip or edge and breaks down into an ulcer. It secretes pus and is most painful. If you notice an unnatural appearance of your tongue, it Is well to consult a physican. He can determine at once if there is any danger and advise a preventive for tho special disease indicated.
