sfmbly as such, b it "must make the rounds of the nations themt-elves, it will be practically impossible to secure 'the ratifications that would be required. Senator Brandegee correctly interpreted the sentiment of his party colleagues when he exclaimed. "I believe it is the opinion of the country that now is our time to look before we leap, and now is the time to remedy such defects a.s we see in this instrument."

THE CASH AND CARRY PLAN. The "cash and carry" plan In stores which has aroused so much discussion over the country in the past years has not proven the success which had been anticipated. The Christian Science Monitor s-ays: After so much discussion as has taken place concerning the "cash and carry" idea, it is rather surprising to see the logic of definite charges, made by th dealer according to the expense involved in delivery, coming so lat" into consideration. In a city lik" New York, if

the estimate is correct which says that at least seventy-

eeem likely that the investigator, going more into detail, would findt hat normally "cash and carry" customers patronize normally "cash and carry" shops, and pay a little less for their merchandise than their bundleless fellow citizens. But in shops having both kinds of customers and the so-called free delivery, the "cash and carry" customer helps to pay for transporting the bundles of the bundleless. An equitable system of charges is yet to be worked out.

THE SOLDIER DOES NOT BRAG. The average soldier who has come back from overteas is a modest chap. We don't remember of a single oaa who his bragged of any of his exploits, no matter how many -medals he is entitled to wear. It is said that one of the greatest of sins is selfishness. One can see it wherever one turns. One phase of it is observed in the fact that so many people are

intent upon getting credit for what they did. They

do j

not seem satisfied with the doing they want credit for;

When we see in the newspapers the claim that this and that contingent shall have praise for this and that, this conclusion comes to us, that if there is any honor due at all. of which there is sometimes doubt, it will finally gravitate around and land in the right place.

$200,000 FOR A. E. F. GRAVES. The senate has passed a hill making available $200,000 of a previous appropriation for the care and maintenance of graves on foreign soil of members of United States military forces. This Is not an additional appropriation, but 13 simply adding to the purposes for which money was previously set aside so that there will be no danger of the accounting officers of the treasury disallowing accounts in which bills appear for the care of graves.

"LOOK BEFORE WE LEAP" B RANDECEE. The praarical impossibility of ever securing an amendment to the league of nations covenant was well get forth by Senator Brandegee in an address the other day. "How would anyone propose an amendment to this covenant," the senator asked. "I can imagine that when the shoe begins to pinch upon us the president might draw up an amendment and propose it, as he signed the treaty in his own right and behalf, and send it to the

to be making its last stand in the cities and towns. Now ! even they have all practically surrendered. Evidently! the recent glowing financial statement of the federal gov-! ernment put forth by Carran;a's minister was rot sup-

ported by actual cash on huid or else the pow-ers in control think that education is one of the things that scarcely matter. Wide-spread, deep-seated popular ignorance has been the curse of Mexico. It has been the root of most of her evils. In the days of Diaz the dictator found it easy to keep the people in subjection; in these later days the demagogue has little difficulty in bending them to his purposes. In Russia the elevation of the Bolshevist rulers to power w-as made possible through the ignorance of the mass of the people. A correspondent has recently related how under the Bolshevist regime a bluff is being mafle at popular education. The children go to school twice a day, in certain localities, attracted by free meahs. They receive absolutely no instruction. In other places the children have organized Soviets and run the schools to suit themselves.

with a maximum of holidays and recesses and a minimum! of teaching. I What hope is there for countries where the rising; generation is permitted to grow up in ignorance? The establishment of a real educational system in Mexico!

Senator Brandegee'3 speech was directed at Article 26 of the covenant which provides that in order to become effective amendments must first be ratified by every nation represented in the council and also a majority of the nations represented in the assembfy. It is the

contention of the Republicans that, inasmuch as amend-1 REDUCTIONS in food prices are announced but when
