Skaters Wear Bells.

The danger of boys and girls skating on the hard surface pavement in this city has been greatly lessened. The children now carry small bells, or tie them to their feet. As they skate the bells ring and can be heard at some distance by autoniobiljsts. The city council wrestled for several meetings with the problem of the children roller skating on the busy streets, but the proposed prohibitory ordinance did not pass the third reading.-—Vancouver (Wash.) Cor. Philadelphia Enquirer.

I CANNOT favor the imposition of further stamp tax-.s * r fur-lens '•me excise taxes to meet The need.' treasury at this time or in the near future. Stamp taxes are onerous at be.~t and should be resorted to only as an emergency measure.' I BELIEVE THE PRESENT WAR TAX SHOULD BE REVISED AND MANY OF THE STAMP TAXES WHICH IT CONTAINS SHOULD BE ELIMINATED. An increase in the income tax rates and a genera! rearrangement of the classification of incomes under the income tax law would produce a large amount of revenue and would not unduly burden any one. Then I believe the proposal to levy a tax on the manufacturers of war munitions, who are shipping vast quantities of their products abroad; should be favorably considered. These munition manufacturers are making vast profits out of the present increased trade in their product. ‘iiw.it ci' THEY ARE PROBABLY THE MOST PROSPEROUS CLASS IN THE COUNTRY TODAY. I AM CONVINCED THAT THEY SHOULD BEAR THEIR SHARE OF ANY INCREASED TAXATION. At present I’can see no necessity for considering a revision of the tariff either in general or in regard to the special schedules of the law.

College Trained Men Should Not Be Asked to Bear Brunt of War

By Rev CHARLES A. RICHMOND,

SO far as military training in colb ges is a part of the general plan for the training of youth for national defense, I should favor it, but if it means that the choicest of our voung men shall receive such training as well put them in the first line not only of defense, but of sacrifice, and allow the worthless slacker, ON THE PLEA OF LACK OF TRAINING, TO DODGE HIS RESPONSIBILITY, IT SEEMS TO ME A .MONSTROUS PROPOSITION. Consider, then, the value of these men to the counter. The one class has been accumulating value of th- most precious kind. Their minds have been disciplined. They have been trained in self control, in judg■ment am! in the essentials of patriotism. Many of them have come from this same laboring class, but they arc now different. Ther have acquired a new value. Some of them have learned the principles of engineering, of electrical and chemical science < : ol sanitation. Some of them qualified to give instruction or to write or speak in the service of the nation. R R R ALL OF THEM ARE MEN OF SUPERIOR QUALITY. IT WOULD TAKE YEARS TO REPLACE SUCH MEN. This implies no slur upon the loyalty or the real value of the unskilled workmen of this nation. We could not exist without them, but they should, at least take an equal chance. Tim economic absurditv of the proposition to sacrifice first the educated men seems to me self evident.

Intervention of State Necessary to Protect Weak Against Strong

By Professor CHESTER LLOYD JONES.

THE old “let it alone" attitude can be no longer adopted by the state toward its industries under modern conditions. Under simpler conditions of earlier settlement days the “do nothing’’ attitude probably did no great harm, but with the present conditions of intensive industrial organization it can no longer be maintained that THERE IS NO NEED OF THE ASSISTANCE OF THE STATE TO PROTECT THE WEAK AGAINST THE STRONG AND TO INSURE EQUAL OPPORTUNITY. The position taken in connection with regulation of the railroads in the seventies has become familiar since that time through different lines of corrective legislation. Today in some lines of work a man may not work more than eight hours, while on certain work no women may be employed. In some states a man under certain conditions may not be paid for his labor in anv medium other than the coin of the realm. The baker must bake under sanitary conditions, the manufacturer must have fire escapes on his buildings, and when he dies he can onlv have a certain number of carriages in his funeral procession. WE HAVE COME TO A CONDITION WHERE PUBLIC AUTHORITY IS MORE AND MORE FREQUENTLY CALLED ON TO MAINTAIN TRUE EQUALITY OF RIGHT.

Enforcement of Monroe Doctrine a Source of Future Trouble

By Senator JAMES HAMILTON LEWIS

THE future troubles of America will grow out of the construction and enforcement of an international contract—designated the Monroe doctrine —that American doctrine which prohibits any government of kings or emperors from establishing their representatives or their form of government upon the western hemisphere. The conflicts which will be waged against America will not arse during the present European w'ar. r R R R THEY WILL COME UPON US AT THE CLOSE OF THE EUROPEAN WAR, SUSTAINED BY THE COMBINED ENMITIES OF ALL OF THE COUNTRIES NOW ENGAGED IN THE EUROPEAN CONFLICT. The desire for the trade of South America by Europe, the desire for a new field of venture and the planting of colonies will bring about the demand on America to surrender her present position in support of the Monroe doctrine. Then will come the first severe conflict of arms. The’ European country defying us will bring its forces to South or Central America and ESTABLISH THEM AND CALL UPON US TO ADVANCE TO THE SOUTH AMERICAN COUNTRY TO DISLODGE THEM. ‘
