'iku, iirident of ,t'ie American u..i.!o .t sratt:v.cnt a lw dajs ago bit m" on't.htiiiuient on the luduisitu.uioa. In KlvUig reasons for thu scale for textile workers, Mr. Wood
iai.1 that the "public M'lil mt :ny prices on present V. .)SJi."
"If tii: M.iiiiit:tipc-. t-nt. Wood
..f.;:;in.-.t it
prcvhi'.iag rale .f wages could have ben wtn'ii hae b :n '::! too glad," Prcsiai), "but tiie attittiiio of the public, is
It will not pay the prices which the present
x.ios involve. It inevitably means reduced prices for cur gxisi. reduced profits and reduced wages." When the public became convinced that pricus were being pyramided all akug the line, it refused to pay prices 011 present cost.-?,' and the result it that n.anufacturers and dealers found themselves we1 1 Mocked with goods made at high casts in materials and wayef. Tho statement of President Wood is a frank admission of the influence and power which is held by the public, but it is a control which should net be used without thought to the serious consequences which may follow indiscretion. The same injury which followed in the wake of reckless spending may be caused by withholding buying In the hope that pre-war prices may Le restored. Factories will not be able to resume work intil 'hey obtain orders, and orders will not be given until prices are made that will meet the demands of the lublic.for lower costs. The public teems to be In command of the situation. How much more does it expect in the way of price reductions before It starts the factories going by resumption of buying aJong old lines?
LOOK BEFORE CROSSING. A rather novel contribution to the current disctisicn of how to lessen automobile accidents is made by 3 New Vo k physician. It is to employ the power of jpeated suggestion in an effort to make the public More carefui. For l.j years he has gene his dally round ; bout the met.mpuls on the front seat of an automobile, fining with his chauffeur, "for the reason that the turnout attention is required cn the part of both to ;; event us from niore or less damaging the New York "ty pfd 'st rian. Up to the present time we have not damaged ;i single individual, but we are not at all sure f.bout tomorrow. There are those who use our streets vho apparently insist on being run over, if one Is to Judge from their indifference to their surroundings." continues the doctor. As he sees it from the front seat o his car, about In per cent of accidents may be laid at the door of the automobile driver and the rest are t'ue to absence of concentration on the part of the pedestrian. Here is where he believes a poller of organized MUigestion would come in. He wotild have every newsJ a per print conspicuously on the front page daily, ' before you cross the street today look carefully to right and left." ITe would have the same warning flashed oa motion picture screens and postede up In fit the schools and public buildings and the sign dismayed on eve-y third limp post. Within a few days, )- believes, every person who Is not blind or Illiterate
THE ADVENTURERS. Wherever we get to thinking that this drab old world baa been so well explored, and systematized, and reduced to number and letter and index file that ail its romance, adventure and charm has been done away, we get a bump. For romance has gone arm and arm with science and invention all the way. The spectacle cf three Yankee aviators, lost in a balloon over the wilds of the Canadian North, is one of the most alluring to the
imagination since the war. For four davs, after they
hal landed and the world had given them up fcr loat, they wandered In the snow-clad forests. Their vlec-trically-heated garments kept them from being frozen until they came upon the Hudson Hay Company post at Moo.se Facte ry. Then they started out on dog sleda and with snow shoes to win their way back to the civilization that had sent them forth. The mechanic) and mathematics of ballooning doubtless interested Lieutenants Kloor, Hlntcn and Farrell. Perhaps they do not fully realize that It ii the personal equation, the individual element that separates strong men from wekllngs and heroes from cowards that has made their achievement a notable on.:. Though man regulate and tame the world forever, he will still be man. It s pluck, and daring, and cool courage that thrill us. Science does not cloud these human quaitles. Rather, as in the case of the balloonist?, it enhances them . PROGRESSION THE SEA. When the wind whistles we think of the sea. Sailors risk their lives in storms in a continuous caravan of ships, bearing tho freights of commerce that help 4.0 make our lives easy and pleasant. Prcgre3 haB helped the sailor. All the devices of man become puny when a hurricane sweeps across the prow, as happened to tho Belgian steamer Menapier in mid-Atlantic on a recent voyage. The distressed ship, bound from New Orleans for Antwerp, sent out an S. O. S. call for medical aid. Many of the crew had benes broken and were generally battered up. The Windfredian, riding the same storm 100 miles away, picked up the message. An American physician, ship's doctor on the Windfredian, sat with the operator while for three days the wireless sputtered details of the men's injuries and th physician dictated methods of treatment. The boats at length were within hailing distance, but because of the heavy pea the doctor cculd not be transferred to the Menapier. On tho fourth day the wind subsided, and this message came: "All your instructions safely carried out. The men are resting easily and are out of danger." Science and progress registered another triumph.

LET THEM HAVE IT. President-elect Harding in his urgent request that his inauguration be attended with the greatest possible simplicity and the least possible expense, makes a big hit with the country at large. But why put the kibosh on the inaugural ball, asks the Fort Wayne News That function doesn't cost the government anything rnd it affords the rubes from the provinces a longedfor opportunity to cut their belts and make believe that they are shining Eocially. They all get their money's worth, or think they do, which is the same thing, and the caterers, florists .and other trades pecpie of the capitol are made rich quick. It's really a happ and felicitous bit of foolishness that harms nobody and does soma people a whole lot cf good. Why blight it in Its tender bud,
A Tennessee man's conscience h'm so badly that he paid a North Carolina man for a u.)rsc stolen in 1867. A conscience that slow in action shoul . not be excessively annoying.

It is now announced that D'Annunzlo will divorce his present wife and marry a younger one. Trouble, evidently is to his liking.
Japan would have a real situation on her hands if all her 30,000 poets would cut up high jinks like D'Annunzio did with Italy.
