THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM SATURDAY, FEB. 1, 1919.

THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM '' AND SUN-TELEORAM Published Every Evening Except Sunday, by Palladium Printing Co. Palladium Building, North Ninth and Sailor 8 treats. Entered at the Post Office at Richmond, Indiana, as See ond Class Mall Matter. .

All rights of republication of special dispatches herein are also reserved. Garments of Brilliant Hues Hitherto garments of variegated hues and brilliant colors have been associated with fashions for women, but this year the men intend to become rivals of the fair sex. The "inspirational" in men's raiment is decreed for 1919 by the National Association of Merchant Tailors. To use their own words: "Styles for the ensuing twelve months are to be sprightly without-being conspicuous dashing without verging on- extremes, youthful in- temperment and inspirational." ; Or in other words., mother may expect father to come home some evening dressed in a suit of more colors than the coat which the patriarch bought for Joseph many centuries ago. And the cut of the suit may be so., "inspirational" that mother may wonder if father was in his right senses when he permitted the tailor to convince him that he needed a sprightly garment in order to be in fashion. Furthermore, so the tailors dictate, men who have worn flannels hitherto, as recreational clothing will in 1919 deck themselves in garments "fashioned in silk, fine linens and other delicate fabrics." I It seems, therefore, that men will become rivals in fashion with women this year and the race, both as to colors, fabrics and style of cut, promises to be an interesting one. No Need of Pessimism , Secretary of Labor Wilson does not take much stock in the "hysteria" over reconstruction problems as they pertain to unemployed men, which seemingly has caused considerable alarm all over the country. He admitted that reports to the department showed 262,000 unemployed men at 123 industrial centers this week, which is a considerable increase over last week, but believed that if the industries resume their pre-war activities, the industrial world would easily assimilate the demobilized workers. His views are of considerable importance in this connection because he himself has been a laboring man and is thoroughly conversant with the hopes and aims of labor. His statement indi

cates that he is not blind to labor conditions of the present time. Everyone will admit that it is easier for an employer to adjust himself to after-the-war conditions than it is for the workers, who usually" are unable to save enough money to tide them over a period of. depression. Secretary Wilson is right in asserting that some form of "legislation that will be a buffer to tide us through a brief period of unemployment" is necessary. Most authorities on the question believe that it will take from twelve to eighteen months to absorb the labor released by the demobilization of the American army. Judge Gary of the United States Steel Corporation believes that if read

justment is wisely conducted, a great demand for

American industrial products, both for domestic and export use,' will follow. On this ground he predicts that the problem of 'unemployment will be solved in a short time. . , - He also calls attention to the fact that the per capita wealth of the United States is $56 today in comparison with $16 at the close of the Civil War. He is certain that the country is very prosperous. Fifteen billions of dollars he asserts are coming out of the ground annually, our banks are carrying billions in cash, and finally instead of being a debtor nation, we are now creditors to the world of not less than fifteen billions. The Indianapolis Star concludes an editorial discussion of the problem with these words : "There is bound to be a readjustment but that should not be mistaken for a set back to the individual or to industry. We may have to take less for what we have to sell, whether it is labor of manufacturers, but what we get will buy more and prosperity should be 'relatively the same as it has been. There will be enough for everyone to do and a ready market for all we produce. That should mean permanent prosperity but not necessarily war time prices.

M.

France Skeptical of League

STEPHANE LAUZANNE, editor of Paris Matin,

writes in the World's Work for February' that French peop.le are skeptical of the League of

Nations because they do not see how it can be practical

in its safeguards of human liberty. He thinks it too slow

in action, and lacking all guarantee of unanimity of opto ion. Speaking of their general reaction tor it, he says:

No problem has ever produced such a strange effect on the spirit of a people as the problem of the League of

Nations on the spirit of France. The French are attracted by the League of Nations and they fear it; they consider it desirable and impracticable; they will help to its

realization with all their soul and heart and will; never

theless, they will not be overdispleased if it fails.

France will rejoice if she is mistaken. She will cer

tainly not delay a single hour the organization of a League of, Nations, but she wiU believe in the efficacy of such a League only when she has seen it work above all, when she has seen it deal out just punishment. Who can blame her? No city In the world could have confidence in its policy, If ordinances were continually being enacted, but no transgressors were ever arrested. '

Parson Miles was a rather dry speaker, but occasionally he proved that he had a ready wit. One evening he was addressing his congregation on the beauty of leading an upright life when he suddenly paused, glanced around the church and beckoned to the sexton. "Brown," said he in a clear, distinct tone of voice as the sexton approached the pulpit, "open a couple of windows on each side of the church, please." "Beg your pardon, sir!" exclaimed the sexton with a look of great surprise. "Did I understand you to say 'Open the windows'? It is a very bitter cold night, sir." "Yes, I am very well aware of that, Brown," was the cold, hard reply of the minister as he gazed around the church,. "but it is not healthy to sleep with the windows shut!" .

Moment "OBSoTToDSNOBS The ex-klse would make a good traffic officer on some corner where nobody ever pays any attention to traffic officers. Thus he could stay in uniform. The chances of his being scrambled three or four times a day would be excellent. The ex-Hindenburg can find excellent employment on some aviation field in one of the allied countries or during the county fairs in peace times blowing up balloons. The old boy won't know what to do with his surplus wind now that he can no longer blow about his victories. " Ludwig of Bavaria shouldn't be obliged to remain idle long. Joe Jefferson has never had a successor in "Rip Van Winkle," and the old play Is waiting for a star. Ludwig would require no make-up, as he already has the lace curtains. He would need no instruction in the art of getting pickled. ' . , Ludendorff would find congenial employment in acting as conductor of a merry-go-round.

INK OF THE MONEY YOU CAN SAVE ON SHOES Clarence J. Bloenker of St. Louis. Missouri, writes, "I have a pair of shoes with Nefilin Soles and have used them for two years. I think they will last another ax months." Mr. Bloenker also recommends Neolin Soles for their comfort and waterproofness. It is a remarkable fact that Neolin Soles cost no more than others that give only ordinary wear. You can get them on new shoes in many styles for men, women, and children and they are available everywhere for resoling, too. And look at the money you save because you need fewer pairs of shoes with Neolin Soles. Remember these soles are made by Science to be especially tough and durable. They are manufactured by The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. of Akron, Ohio, who also make Wingfoot Heelsguaranteed to outwear any other heels. neolin Soles
