/ PREVENT THAT STRIKE J The threat of a strike by employes of the street fallway company is sufficiently great to demand that jpublic officials take Immediate steps to prevent any fsuch an outcome. It should not be necessary or even possible for any group of workers on any public utility to even reach the stage where they threaten a strike. A cessation of street car service should be as unthinkable as a strike of mail carriers or “of lighthouse keepers or any other men who perform a public-service. Xhe public has created a body to safeguard investments of the owners of public utilities. It has placed in the public service commission the power to fix fares so that a reasonable return on Investment can be had. The public has some rights in return for the fare it pays, beyond the Immediate ride. It has a right to uninterrupted service. It has a right to service from employes whose wage Is at 1 least of living size and which compares favorably with wages paid for similar work in this city. , The public is entitled to operation of the cars by men who do not work under conditions which are intolerable. ' A quarrel between the employes of the street car company and its officers is not a private battle. It endangers the comfort, safety and welfare of every citizen and every business interest. The job of every, other worker and the investment of all other business interests are directly affected by it. The matter is far too important and affects too many others to .be left to the decision of a few men as to whether there is to be peace or open conflict. If the men are being underpaid, the same body which raises fares when investment cries for relief, should be able to force fairness. If they are being paid a fair wage, that official body should emphatically state the facts and leave no doubt in the public mind. The time to settle any quarrel is before it starts, not after it reaches the point of open conflict and bitterness. Certainly there is Borne official in the city or State with courage enough to act.
A REAL WRONG V The committee investigating the Pennsylvania primaries has heard all kinds of witnesses. Rough neck ward politicians have testified truculently to their part in the money spending. Suave gentlemen representing organized wealth have testified blandly of their part in furnishing the money. Worried business men have testified evasively of the part they - played. It remained for a grandmotherly woman, her hair in a white knot, her bright eyes shining through , gold-rimmed spectacles, to really shock the committfee. Mrs. Ella M. George, president of the Pennsylvania W. C. T. U., was the witness. She told how she and her women colleagues, mostly poor women, had financed the enforcement of one particular law In Pennsylvania—the prohibition law. The Legislature having failed to appropriate the money necessary for this law’s enforcement, they had collected $130,000 for that purpose. By arrangement with Governor Pinchot they paid the salaries of special deputies attorney general, commissioned by the Governor, she said, as well as the wages of clerks and detectives. All to enforce the law. The pleasant little woman smiled shrewdly as she talked, totally unconscious of any wrong-doing. For wrong-doing It was. She obviously did not realize, though It is difficult to see how Governor Pinchot failed to do so, unless blinded by his zeal in behalf of the prohibition law and his resentment toward the political organization that gave him that law but withheld the funds needed for enforcement. In Baying this was wrong-doing, we have no reference to the statute books. Whether or not those of Pennsylvania contain any law against private persons or organizations paying the salaries of public officials, or bearing the expenses of law enforcement, the inherent wrong in such practice is too manifest to require explaining. It is wrong and it is dangerous. It endangers the liberties of the people as a whole, when any group is permitted to furnish the pay roll for public officers. Pinchot himself, if we remember correctly, put an end to the practice in some parts of his State, of allowing mine owners to pay the wages of special deputy sheriffs in time of labor trouble. He recognized the wrong in that. Indeed, the whole story of Pennsylvania’s deplorable political situation probably could be summed up in the statement that private interests have controlled the lawmakers and the law. Pinchot has complained of this and justly. But the remedy does not lie in another wrong pf the same kind. If the people of Pennsylvania want a prohibition enforcement law, or any other law, and haven't intelligence to elect a Legislature that will give them this law —and this means to enforce it —their case is hopeless. If they will accept the intervention of a private organization—whether it is the W. C. T. U. or whatnot —as the enforcer of their laws and the paymaster of their officials, their case is worse than hopeless. AN OLD RACE PASSES We need a poet to sing the song of a passing race—the American harvest hand. Time was when the scorching summer of the great Middle Western wheat belt beat down on a migratory herd of adventurous men bounjl on a mission both economio and romantic. To quote a staff correspondent of the Kansas City Star, they led a hard life and '‘followed the harvest from Oklahoma on north through Kansas, Nebraska and the Dakotas into Canada. Bl&zing sun and intense heat to fight all the wqy; dust of thrashers, dust of many a weary mile of country road to anew ‘stand’.” These men spent oppressive ‘ nights in barns, traveled in box cars, often were robbed of their earnings while on the road. But the harvest hand took his bumps without great complaint His spirit grew as hard as the callouses on his hands, and as rough as his tanned skin. He exchanged chews of tobacco with his partners of the road, swapped rough and ready yarns and grew philosophical. But (oday the species is rare, * Farm machinery
has wrought a great change in the farm labor situation on the wheat plains. Many farmers require no outside assistance at harvest. Those that do are supplied by motor car hands, anew genus that infests the grain belt highways in dilapidated flivvers. The Government maintains permanent employment bureaus in many towns throughput the wheat Country, but machinery has displaced aboput 75 per cent of human help. Kansas has a banner crop of wheat. It may be the greatest in its history. And 80 per cent of it will be harvested by motor car handß, the product of an efficient age. It takes fewer of this new species of harvest hands to handle the grain, because they can get about with greater ease. They can do more work, with less labor, than their more romantic predecessors, but even they will grow .fewer and fewer with the passing years, as the übo of machinery spreads throughout the wheat country. They are the remnant of a picturesque race. ABOUT FLAG-WAVING On July 4 the flag of our country will be flown generally. It is a good custom, flag-waving, if sincerely and correctly done. Long may it wave! Now, in New York the other day, a certain rich woman was arrested because she cut a strip of bunting from one of her tenant's places. She had demanded that the tenant remove it from the front of the restaurant he occupied, and when he refused, she went up and cut away the lashings herself. Reprimanded by a magistrate, and asked why she dare do such a thing, the woman told the court: < "The bunting was dirty and unattractive. It was not my intention to desecrate the flag. The decoration made the building look like a section of Second Ave.” There is no finer flag in the world than ours, Mrs. New Yorker. It should awaken pride in us wherever it is viewed, on the battlefield or over a butcher shop. But let us keep it clean, too. Hanging out a dirty flag is like wearing a soiled badge. It Is a kind of muddy patriotism. FATAL FATALISM A Japanese cartoonist in New York, Mataturo Okabe, thought it time for him to die, and put the ideal of fatalism into practice by slashing himself. Fatalism Is a queer quirk of thought. Shakespeare had a good idea In mind when be said: "There’s nothing either or bad, but thinking makes it so.” If we think a thing hard enough, the mind becomes obsessed. Fatalism may be fatal. Everybody wants to run our Government But it Just walks along. Winter is better than summer, in winter you don’t have to go to bed without having enough strawberry shortcake. In Germany, they have an epidemic of smallpox. An epidemic of sm?Jlpox in Germany should be popular in France. The Bhimmy di.nce wasn’t half so interesting as a fellow with a bay window doing the Charleston. A pedestrian is safe only when he Is riding The trouble with being a follower is you get dust in your eyes. Summer would be nicer if it took an hour off for lunch. If you don’t gat a grip on yourself someone else will. Way to leave footprints on the sands of time is get out and dig. Gems never realise you are behind with your work. Ignorance isn’t so very much bliss in the eyes of the law.
WHO WANTS TO BE A QUEEN ? By Mrs. Walter Ferguson —■ l -" The story of the little Princess Elizabeth of England, daughter of the Duke of York and sole heir to the House of Windsor, is romantic and may have Inspired envy in the heart of many a mother. For this baby is born, not only to wealth and ease, but to a throne. Glance back, however, to England's queens and read the story of their heart-breaks, and perhaps you will be thankful that your cherubic baby is i>ot a descendant of royalty. Os all women on earth, queens have been the most unhappy. The tales of those who ruled or were consorts In England are fraught with sorrow and disillusion. Perhaps the unromantlc Victoria was Britain’s most contented queen. The perfect housewife, she ruled her country for many years and never flinched at the cares of state which rested upon her fat,shoulders. But the rest of that fair galaxy of royalty,/could one look into their dead or broken hearts, would tell a tale of tears. Elizabeth, probably the most famous, who was daughter the infamous Henry the Eighth, was not physically able to bear children and would never marry. She lived to see the one dream of her life denied her and to look upon the child of her 'haif-sister and bitterest enemy, Mary, Queen of Scots. Elizabeth’s life was bitter and sad for all of her authority. And the unlucky Mary Tudor, whom we call Bloody Mary, in all her short forty-two years never had a happy day. She, too, longed for love and children and was denied both. Mary, the ill-fated Queen of the Scots, half-sister of these two, had many lovers but no throne and lost her lovely head at her sister Elizabeth s order. Exiled, poor, deserted by many men—who ’could wish for her daughter any such fate? Then there was Henrietta Maria, jwlfe of Charles the First, who saw the head of her husband roll from the guillotine and wandered with her son and daughter through long years of exile. When this son, Charles 11, finally came to the throne, what pity does the consort who ruled beside him merit —Katherine of Bragunza, who through many years was forced to watc 1 her husband’s beautiful mistresses occupy the place which rightfully belonged to her. Oh, the story of queens is the saddest story of aP. No American woman would envy a queen. For the lowliest maiden in this land is far mofe free and independent and happy than any one of that long procession of ghostly women with tear-dimmed eyes and grief-stricken souls who sat upon the thrones of the earth. _ - - : V
THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
Tracy If a New York Teacher Has Three Children She Loses Her Job.
By M. E. Tracy Mariled women are employed as school teachers in New York. If, tnd when, they, become mothers, they are allowed a leave of absence for two years. Up to this time no limit has been placed on the number of such leaves of absence a married teacher may obtain without losing her place on the roll. Now, however, It Is proposed that the third leave of absence shall mean dismissal. In other words, a married teacher can have two children and retain her job, but, with three, she loses It. •!• ■!• -(• A Real Lea'der Aristide Brland has formed his tenth cabinet as premier of France, and that, too, in the face of such difficulties as would have discouraged anybody else. You can’t help respecting his persistence and patriotism. There Isn’t one in a million but would have soured on the job long ere this, wouldn’t have told the cheap, conniving, backbiting, evading politicians to take the government and wreck It. But Briand Is the one bright spot of his country, the one outstanding figure that offers some hope that she will not became so dizzy with her own emotionalism as to plunge over the precipice of bankruptcy without realizing what has happened. + I *l- - For a few brief hours, the submarine S-51, tomb of twenty-four brave lads, pc‘ted her shattered nose above water, but the sea was rough, the wind blew up a nasty chop, two pontoons broke loose and down she went again. Will the United States Navy quit, or finish the task. Useless says the man on the street, a waste of time and money; the lads would be no better off in graves than at the bottom of the sea, and there is no profit in spending more than she Is worth to raise a wrecked boat. But where is the waste? We have so many ships and so many men in the Navy. If they aren’t raising submarines, they are romping around the world, and one form of training may do them as much good as the other. Besides, there is always profit in any feat well performed. If there Isn’t, why do we pay a million to see Jack Dempsey fight? * •!• •!• + Efoquence of Votes The Senate Is scheduled to vote on the Haugen farm bill this afternoon. The chance that It will pass seems more than even. Several Senators have changed their minds within the last few days, and two have run away rather than be counted. Eloquence is supposed to have done the trick, but I cannot help suspecting that the really effective eloquence came by way of those lowa returns which told in very simple language how badly Brookhart beat the Administration candidate. iThere is a lot of politics behind the scene, of course— Democrats striving to make capital out of the farmers’ discontent, and Republicans striving just gs hard to prevent them. -I- •!• -|- Mellon Poor Pleader Secretary Mellon appears to have been the flrtst to realize just what Brookhart’s victory meant. That is why he came out with his letter against the Haugen bill. BtJt he was a better observer than pleader. His letter did no good/On the other hand it served to place President Coolldge in a most embarraslng position. If the Haugen bill passes, will the President veto it to please Mellon, or sign it to please the farmers? If he signs It, will Mellon be forced to resign? + -I* -IDynamite There Is dynamite in this farm situation. The mid-west is clearly In a mood for drastio action as ,ras proved by the way Brookhart swept lowa. The Administration will have to do more than put through a badly mutilated measure of relief—and the Haugen bill is no more than that In its present form—to redeem Itself In at least half a dozen States. Through his letter against Mhe Haugen bill, Secretary Mellon nSde himself the peculiar target of their resentment, and they are going to come pretty close to demanding his elimination, or bolt. Tt Is up to President Coolldge to prevent the passage of the bill If he can. or if not, to make choice between the almost certain defection of hundreds of thousands of votes and the retention of Mellon. -I- -I- -IDemocratic Godsend The Democrats view the situation solely In the light of a good chance to form a coalition with the discontented Republicans, and that only adds to the perplexity in which the President finds himself. , • They are moving Heaven and earth to convince the com belt how good they would be to it if given the chance, and the com belt is deeply interested, no matter what eastern politicians think. The com belt la independent, too, and of a mind to vote its opinions, quite regardless of what partisan tradition may call for. The East, whether Republican or Democrat, is sitting comfortably by with the notion that it won’t have to argue any issues except prohibition dnd the world court in 1928 but un'esa I. am mistaken, farm relief wi J claim much of attention with a pejjslble line-up of South and 'West always In the offing.
Trying to Discover Some of the More , Beautiful Things in Our Own Big City
By Walter l>. Hickman Have been making little journeys over the city the last few weeks and I have found lots of real beauty that I didn’t know existed. Am ’trying to find the Ten Most Beautiful Things in Indianapolis. I have asked prominent people to list me ten things that they consider beaiitlful in the city of Indianapolis. Asked J. Arthur Mac Lean, director of the John HerronvArt Institute, to list me ter. ’’beautiful things” in the city of Indianapolis. He told me that he would give me the titles of ten things in the ►■Museum at the Art Institute which he thought were beautiful. Mr. Mac Lean’s selection and comments are as follows: 1. In the court of the museum there has lately been Installed a turquoise tile pool five feet, five inches square, and in it has been placed a pair of fish one inch long, a pair of fish two, Inches long, a pair of fish three inches long, a pair of fish four inches long, a pair of fish five inches long, and one big fellow ten inches long, all chosen from many thousands at Gfassyforks Fisheries for their brilliant vermilllort color. This vermllllon against the blue-green color of the tiles makes a compli-” mentary color scheme which In itself is delightful; but, furthermore, in the the center of the pool on a pure white marble hase stands a beautiful nude figure called "Joy of the Waters” by Harriet Frishmuth, a woman sculptor of New York of great skill and ability. It Is an original bronze, finished with a dark green patina. Every time I look at this, I call It beautiful and I think that probably l/e pool and fishes add to the beauty, though the sculpture is in Itself an Important work of art. e 2. Upstairs in Gallery IX. there la a painting by Clifton Wheeler with a predominating color scheme of blue. The mottled sky and the landscape, every time I enter this gallery, appeals to me In a most delightful way, and I call it beautiful. Two More Beauties 3. In Gallery 111, the European Gallery of the museum, there are two cases of lusterware, any piece of which might be taken out and placed upon a pedestal for individual admiration. These pieces of lusterware are so consistently installed and so delightfully enhanced by a beautiful piece of brocade of the contemporary period, that I am inclined to look upon them as a picture. The space relations are so carefully considered for this Installation that it makes a composition like a picture. Yet, when one examines each individual piece ft hey being separated or individualized so definitely that each piece can he examined readily and easily), I find them exceedingly beautiful and important specimens. I call the objects in these cases beautiful. 4. In the court of the museum across the northside, there is a composite screen made up of East Indian cravings, stone, wood and metal. In the center of this screen is a small carved door-way, encased in carved jams. This single unit is so consistently done, every square inch carved, that I feel, whenever I look at it. that it is one of the beautiful things in the museum. 5. In Gallery VII, where we are showing at the present time modern Amerlear water colors, there is exhibited un American mahogany table. It is a gate-leg, tilt back table of nearly severe lines, but decorated sufficiently to give sparkle and smartness at those points, where it Is most needed to attract the eye in making it a picture composition, to include the top and Its fore legs. The wood Itself Is beautiful and the finish, too, out were the wood cheaper than mahogany and were there no finish n It at all, It would still be an exceedingly beautiful table. 6. At the present time there Is exhibited In Gallery X of the museum a part of the memorial exhibition of the work of Otto Stark. He painted In oil. but also made pictures In charcoal and colored crayon and, in the last, he excelled. On the northwest splay of Gallery X in the upper row at the left, there is one of these charcoal and colored crayon pictures entitled "Ripples.” This picture is one that not only shows the power of the artist hut. because of that power and the practical character of Otto Stark, it is a thing of great beauty. Here Is a case where an object, perhaps not as pretentious as that of many others of the museum, is nevertheless to be numbered among the museum’s most beautiful treasures. Dutch Silver 7. In a case in Gallery TTI there is some Dutch silver. Originally this silver was common table ware, but now it has been elevated to a position in an art museum where It no longer figures as table ware, but as art. of the four dozen or more objects of table ware, one 1? a small spoon, second from the left in the top row, in the center of the case, which in technique Is perhaps the simplest of all. The pattern Is punched and engraved in the handle, which has a perfectly beautiful curve and the bowl Is subtly tapered to a point. The spoon is only five inches long, a coffee spoon perhaps, but in its simplicity and in its excellence for subtle feeling, in this simple implement otne feels the work of an artist craftsman. It is, in the particular case in which it Is shown, one of the most beautiful objects. 8. In Gallery II the so-called printroom of the museum, there are ex-

hibited at the present time etchings by American artists. In the northeast corner of the gallery there are five prints marked "recent accessions to permanent collection,” and the first cne to the left is an etching of a Gloucester musician by Arthur Heinszelman, a contemporary American. This etching shows an old bagpipe turned partly toward the observer, with the detail worked out only in the face and hat. The rest of the picture is simplicity itself, but every line is beautiful. In no single Instance does it show hesitancy, in no single instance does it show heaviness, but each is like a fairy touch in exactly the right spot and produces the pictorial suggestion which was in the mind of the arti.VThis is, indeed, a thing of beauty. 9. Hanging in the court of the museum there Is to be seen during the month of June an exhibition of water colors by foreign artists. On the middle screen there are two pictures by Richmond. Both are landscapes and both are very fine, but the one at the left with its snow-capped mountains and purple ravine with blue-green water in the foreground takes on a rare beauty, as one approaches It, quite distinctand separate from the pictorial representation of the landscape Itself. Never, for a moment, however, does it completely dissolve into a thing of pure pattern, although that Is a very important part of the picture. It always holds its own as a mountain landscape, yet realism is hardly a part of .’t. The impression one receives in looking at this picture is a rich landscape In which all the vivid tones of nature are recorded. The medium, water color, very difficult to handle, shows In this case a master handling in color composition. In the understanding of nature, and In pattern. It is a thing of beauty. 10. Hanging in the court is a rug. Tt was made in the orient, and its patterns, therefore, are not those which are familiar to the Occidentallst. Nevertheless, the patterns are so eonsistept, are so Ingenious, are so naive, are so Interrelated, and finally are so blended with the delightful color scheme, that the rug In all Its foreign aspects becomes to us, nevertheless, a thing of beauty. Its date Is probably 1500 and it la tinged, therefore, somewhat with bits of prlmativeness, but In no case does this primitiveness'V fail to register the skill and master handling of the craftsmen. This rug which hangs over the balcony of the mqseum Is. indeed, a thing of beauty. Here is a chance for every citizen of Indianapolis to aid In finding the ten most beautiful things In this city. If you know of something really beautiful, send the name and the location along with your name and address, so that we can hunt it out and list It so that others may enjoy It. .I. i .* PLAY TO BE GIVEN TONIGHT AT SCHOOL "Kicked Out of College,'* a play, will be given by the Young People's I-eague of FVledens Evangelical Church tonight at the Emmerich
