Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!—Ps. 133:1. All things that speak of heaven speak of peace—Bailey. Wheeler and the American People p VERY American who loves fair play and decency—most every American, in other words—will rejoice in the quick acquittal given Senator Burton K. Wheeler by the : Federal Court in Montana last night. Every American who likes to think his government represents the average of American fair play and decency will insist that this persecution of the man who uncovered conditions in the department of justice shall now come to an end. Senator Wheeler was indicted in the very/ midst of the investigation that finally resulted in the removal of Harry M. Daugherty. There never was any doubt that his indictment was brought about to discredit that investigation. When it failed of its purpose and Daugherty was removed there was every reason to expect that Daugherty's successor would cause the proceedings to drop. They had been started by a political employe who frankly said be had been sent to Montana to “get Wheeler.” Attorney General Stone caused it to he very generally understood that he proposed to call off' the dogs. But he did not. Something or someone impelled him to drag the Administration in even deeper. Tt was during his brief tenure that the second proceedings were begun based on the same allegations in Jhe District of Columbia, 3.000 miles from Wheeler’s home State. Tfiis ease is still pending. The Government can now put an end to it. Stone is out. John G. Sargent heads the Department of .lustice. If he is disposed to follow the bad example of Daugherty and Stone, a word from his chief. Calvin Coolidge, is sufficient to correct any such purpose. Here is an opportunity for the Administration to reveal whether or not it contains those human elements of decency arid fair play that every American has a right to expect of it. Every partisan of the Administration should help to make it understood that the country expects now to see an end of this unfair attack on the character of the young Western Senator. ,*■ ; ~ Culbertson Is Out mHOSE citizens who like in pay high prices for sugar will be pleased t(v learn that William S.

Investment Advice

The President of the New York Stock Exchange estimates that swindling by the sale of fraudulent securities costs the American people a billion dollars every year, or onej-thlrd of the total cost of crime. And fraudulent bankruptcies cost the public about $400,000,000 a year. Every man and woman, too, sooner or later in his lifetime has ROME money to invest, w’hether it is merely a life Insurance policy, a savings account, a building and lean association account, or Government or indus-

the tariff commission. He is a Republican, from Kansas, where the sugar interests do not seem to exert much influence. He joined with others on the commission to make a one-vote majority in favor of reducing the tariff on sugar and so to bring the price down. That was nearly a year ago. The commission's •recommendation has been in President Coolidge’s hands ever since. No action has been taken. But there have been reports and rumors continually about Mr. Culbertson. He was to be appointed ambassador to Mexico, he was to have an important South American post, he was to receive this honor and that. Through it all it was clear that somebody was determined that he should not continue to be a member of the tariff commission. Now he is out. Let sugar soarl Investigation Demanded mHERE is an imperative call for Government investigation of the financial collapse of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railroad. Here is a great transcontinental system serving the needs of an empire within the l.’niter! States. What will result from the receivership into which certain financial interests have thrown it? Will the system eventually emerge more heavily burdened than ever under financing charges, hut with all the “widows and orphans,” the thousands of small stockholders, squeezed out of their investment? Will shippers be required to pay the freight? Immediately after the receivership was announced. excuses for the road's financial condition were forthcoming. First, the Government was blamed. Too much regulation, said the hanker-railroaders. That excuse did not go down well, in view of the growth and prosperity of other railroads during the same period. Then the electrification of the Puget Sound extension, an engineering feat that attracted the attention of the world, was blamed. Now comes an official of the road saying it can be shown that returns on this expenditure have justified it. It has become known that last October representatives of the railroad discussed plans with the Interstate Commerce Commission whereby the receivership could have been avoided and that the commission stood ready to aid the railroad in the manner necessary. The plan was not carried through and then—five days after Congress adjourned—the receivership suddenly was announced. Some interested persons think there was a reason for waiting until Congress adjourned. In any case. Congress can not act until it meets next December. The Interstate Commerce Commission can. The country should support the demand of the small stockholders that such an investigation he made.

Why is Monday sometimes called “Blue Monday"? In early days those whose affairs of business occupied them on Sunday were considered entitled to a holiday on Monday. On Monday, therefore, while others were busy at their tasks, these people who worked on Sunday had a day of rest, during which they usually lazed rather thun indulged in any pleas-, ures. Because the churches throughout Europe were decorated with blue on the first Monday before Gent—u’hich was a holiday, or “lazy day,”

for every one—this day of rest for the Sunday workers came to be known as "Blue Monday.” We still use the phrase, but its meaning has become somewhat modified. We now speak of "Blue Monday” when we wish to convey the thought that we are lazy, tired, melancholy, in need of rest rather than enjoyment. Who was the first "native born" American citizen to occupy the presidency of the United States? Martin Van Buren. His predecessors had all been British subjects in the days before the Revolutionary War. - How much of the area of the earth is water?

What is meant by a solar plexus punch in boxing or prize fighting? It is a punch delivered to the body just above the stomach, and just below the chest. It is very often a knockout punch. The solar plexus is a. complicated network of sympathetic nerve^ Was Athaliah a Bible character? Yes. She was the daughter of Ahab and Jezebel and wife of Jehoram, King of Judah, who secured the throne of Judah to herself after the death of her son, Ahaziah, at the hands of Jehu, by the slaughter of all the royal children save Ahaziah’s son, Joash. Her support of Biu-th-worship led, after six years, to an insurrection headed by the priests; Joash was made king and Athaliah put to death. How often is a census of the United States taken? The Constitution requires that a population census of the United States be taken decennially. The first census was taken in 1790, and the most recent, the fourteenth, In 1920. In addition to these decennial censuses which Include population, agriculture and manufacturing censuses, there are annual figures obtained for such things as births, deaths, marriages, divorces, financial statistics of States and cities, etc. In addition, there are statistics of various kinds gathered serai annually, quarterly and monthly,

GROWING DEMAND FOR ELECTRICITY r-r~|AMrEi, insull of cwI [ eago, public utility leader, in a recent address at Purdue. predicted that in twenty-five yeers the demand for electrical energy in the territory around the head of Michigan, including northwestern Indiana, will be five and one half times what it is today. This region, he believes, will be the industrial center of the nation. Twenty-five years is a long time in the electrical business. It is only forty years since the first electric-arc street lights were installed in Indianapolis, which was one of the first cities In the country to employ that method of illumination. Tw r enty-seven years ago the electric power company In cago, with w'hich Mr. Insuli was connected, supplied 12,000 horse power of electric energy from its central station. Last winter that station carried a power load of 1,000,000 horse power. The output of electrical energy •from that one station increased seventy-eight times In twentyseven years. . Doubtless the next quarter century will witness almost equally startling expansion In the business. The Hoosler, whether he ilves then in city or country, may use electricity, not only for light, but for all his heat and power. In fact the energetic little kilowatt may do all his wmrk—except his thinking and taxpaying. Radio on Shoe 1/INDON, April 26.—A girl has a new' radio set that ought to prove extremely popular.

FINES FOR GUN-TOTERS mwo men were fined 3200 and costs each, yesterday, in city court for carrying concealed weapons. When arrested in Military Park one had a piece of lead pipe In his pocket and the other a revolver. A speeder, according to the fine scale established by city court, would have to travel 200 miles an hour l<> draw a S2OO fine, perhaps the fines in this case seem unduly rigorous. The two offenders weren't caught nfurdering Inoffensive citizens. For the moment they were "ns peaceful as a couple of strolling divinity students. But banditry and murder flourish. because of the promiscuous carrying of weapons. So serious has gun-toting become in Chicago f t hat a special court has been established to try ill eases in which pistols are used in committing crimes. of course Chicago needs a ruthless campaign against gunmen. No other city in the world can approach it in murders and crimes of violence. It's a dull day when half a dozen citizens don’t come home with bullets in their chests. Indianapolis Isn’t tn that class, but even here there is too much of this "Hands up!” stuff emphasized with a gun. The sup pression of the practice Is an acute civic problem. Restricting the sale of weapons will 'somewhat curb the nuisance. But only in part. The heaviest possible fine on every person caught carrying a gun without authority whether in the act of committing a crime or not, will more effectually flatten the crime wave to a ripple. MUSIC IN~ THE SCHOOLS |R 11. N. SHERWOOD. State superintendent of • public instruction, told the State Federation of Music Clubs the other day that music haa attained a very prominent place in the public school system. "No activity, except perhapV basketball, haa made as much progress in the public schools in the last ten years as music,” he said. It Is easy to understand why basketball should he accorded a prominent place in school activities. It is a necessity. In Indiana a person who doesn’t possess a speaking acquaintance with the game Is popularly considered to lack the rudiments of culture. But why devote so much time to music? Music isn’t practical like arithmetic. geography and other essen tial subjects taught in the public schools. It is just a cultural flourish. A person may rise to eminence who thinks Caruso was a race horse and the diatonic scale something on which to weigh coal. But since the morning stars sang together, the influence of music has been felt in the world. It expresses all the emotions of humanity from the beginning—all the faith, hopes, fears, Joys, Borrows. loves and hates. It speaks the universal language—though when using the saxophone It gasps asthmatically and mumbles. Without music it would he a dull, drab world. The radio would go out of business, phonographs would be stilled, neighbors would sleep—and life just wouldn't be worth living. As long as music is such an Important factor in life, probably the public schools should devote as much time to It as to some purely utilitarian branches of the tree of knowledge.

'Tis really to laugh at the longnecked giraffe, with his head stickin’ high in the air. Stand back from that cage. Mister wolf's In a rage and the sign on the bars says, “Beware.” The lions are roarin'; the bears are imploring the keeper to give them some meat, The elephants swaying and seems to be saying, “I'm hungry. Say. when do we eat?” The touch of the wild gives a thrill to a child, and there's nothing they'd much rather do than list’ to the howlin', the squealin’ and ginwlln’ that always is heard at the 7^lo.
