Other Editors Than Ours

now wiz Aiu; to know. (Ft. Wayne Jounial-Gnzettc.) That the visit of Vlviani has served to accelerate the administration's definition of its purpose as to peace and the leapue and the mysterious association of nations is tmown in the announcement which eeem.s authentic enough to accept, that Fres't Harding; will make his position clear in his message to congress next week. The politicians, if rumor yteaks truth, appear to have about dc-cid d upon their program in the interest of party harmony, but alas there are ho mcny Americans who are not politicians, and so many party agencies that are not congressional politicians. Thus we find the IJoston Transcript and the Philadelphia Public Ledger, both ardent In the rupport of Mr. Harding, declaring themselves- inharmonious!' on tho same day. And the marvel of it is that thi-y both predict their divergent views upon the claim that they ppCak the language cf the candidate of a year ago. The supercilious gentleman of the Transcript warns that there in nothing; to do but to scrap thy League, any kind of association, and to declare a re parate peace; while the Public Ledger is quite as .'oleum in its warning1 that the people expect what they were promised and that, the very opposite to what the Transcript understood the promise to be. In this debate of the party organs the Transcript seon;.s to have tho facts and the logic on its .side. Perhaps we are prejudiced. Throughout the prolonged iK-bate of the campaign between Taft nnl John.n we were unable to believe in the sincerity of the former. The bitter-enders won at tho Chicago convention, and nothing said by Pres"t Harding after the convention could possibly have Justlhed the confidence of politicians like Mr. Taft or party organs like the Public ledger. Tho present program ia to pass the separat? peace resolution of Sen. Knox, with the possible addition of an amendment pledplnp us to again go to the rescue vt France under conditions similar to hose of the late war. This, preceded with an authoritative declaration from th2 president that we rhall not enter the league of .r.tions will be final. .Mr. Taft and tho Philadelphia Public Ledger will thua bo placed In the unenviable position of having been stupid dupe.i or gay deceivers in the late campaign. Nor Is" this the only point in con1 us-ion. Th two wir.p. of the dominate jarty are not flopping in harmony in the interpretation of th3 Huglu.s note illative to reparations. The general ton of the note is that (lermany must pay but to th-- oxter.t of her ability. That is the position of Fiance and Fr.gland and all the allies. Hut the Iviux contingent here comes forth mirkinglv to point their linger to the fact that the administra lb-n has not indicated its acquit sence in the French x :ew point as to (b rmany's capacity to pay. Indeed the enemies of the treaty and the friends of (b-rmany in this controversy with the allies gb. fully in 1st that this means a radical reduction in tin amount of the indemnity to be paid. It may mem that the administration will stoutlv insist that (btmany pay to the extent of her ability i a.s -he herself passes upon the extent of N r capacity. And this may not be at all satisfactory :. Viviani. At any rate the Frenchman has h ):" r. d tiie decision. The proj os:d amendment, to th- original Knox separate peace resolution is f. bow .-- "It snail he the drt hud policy of our gcvrnmev.t. in order to meet fully and fairly our obligations to ours Iws and to the world, that the Heidorn and peace of Kuropo again being tiirat!id by any power or combination of powers the Fniwd States will regard such a .-.taation with grave concern as a menace to i's own peneo and freedom, will coriMilt with i'ihi r powers a f:ct cd with a view to devising meat:' for the removal of such a menace, and. the necessity arising in the future, will carry on: tb.e amc complete accord and cooperation with our chief co-belligerent for the defense of eivikrat i n." This m.ans a pub;: ded iration of the fact that e arc r.ot to n main a'o.f from Europe in en-aneler.unt-; and it means that in the event of .-Hi tin r serioas l?iropan war. we .tana pledged o enttr thv war and ti-'ht again on fordgn battl

And it il:ftrs from the obligation in the League cf Nations ir. that in th.e latter we would be in pte-its. n to i fit i f . 'ally contest Puch moves of tho Furopan stat snun as would tend toward the war in which we would bo obligated to participate, while under the K?u plan we would stand aside with foiled hand' un il Furopean diplomacy hi I made war in"ifable and then enter.

Ignorant Essays By J. P. McEVOY

a twin nro UXTllUi (Mrs. Doveleigh think Mr. Doveleigh ought to do some work around th place, and as usual she does her thinking out loud.) It's a wonder you wouldn't try to do some thins around your home onco in a while. If thero's a picture to hang, I muFt hang it. If there's a shelf to fix. I've got to fix it. What makes you so lazy and helpless.... HUir? You hoard what I said, what makes you so lazy? Do you know the hot water faucet Is leaking in the bathtub? WHY DON'T YOU FIX IT? Why don't I fix it! There you go again. Do you think you married a plumber?.. ..DO YOU THINK YOU DID? No, you're not aa good as a plumber. A plumber stays home and takes care of hrs hcupe. A plumber is good to his wdfe and family. WHERE DID YOU GET ALL YOUR EXPERIENCE W1TI I PLU.MX1ERS? Never mind, don't try to change the subject. I ask you to fix the hot water faucet and you start talking about plumbers. I START TALKING A ROUT 'EM Yes, you start talking about 'em Just aa though you'd throw mo off tho track... NO CHANCE. . .What

did you heard you.

say? NOTHING

When you know you're in the wrong you resort to sarcasm and insults. That's the kind of a man I married. Makes a slave of hi wife. Won't lift a finger to help her around the house. Throws plumber up to her when she asks him to fix a faucet and then insults her.

Why didn't I marry a man? I THOUGHT YOU DID. . .1 thought so too, but how I fooled myself. And I've no one to blame but myself. Mother warned me. "He'll make a slave of you," die said. "He'll make you wait on him hand and foot." she said, "don't give in to him." she said. Rut no. I wouldn't believe her. She warned me, but I wouldn't listen to her. To think you'd abu me when I ask you to fix a faucet. If mother only knew the kind of a man you have turned out to be. Put she could see how it would turn out. . . OH, LET UP ON YOUR MOTHER. . Thero you go abusing my mother. You can abuse me all you want, but don't you daro abuse my mother just 1 ecause I ask you to fix a faucet in the bath tub. etc.. etc.. etc. (Copyright, 1921.)

More Truth Than Poetry By JAMES J. MONTAGUE

W HY THEY DO IT. Time was, before our millionaires were found in schools, like shad, That gentlemen were famous for the money that they had, They did not need to bat around or act uncouth or rough, Their stocks and bond and yachts and such provided fame enough. And when one wandered down the street, to get a breath of air, A crowd would tag behind and yell, "There goes a millionaire." But nowadays when even' town from Quogue to Gopher Pass Has got a half a dozen of the supermoney class. When, if you should attack a club, each brlckDat tnat you threw Would probably de-moralize a millionaire or two, The gents possessing money are as utterly obscure. And often rather more fo, than the undeserving poor. Dut millionaires are human, like the rest of all their kind. They hanker every now and then trt fill the public mind; And as their money doesn't count they have to find a way To figure in the headlines that enthrall us every day.

so some found philanthropies, s.une lead adventurous lives. others flirt with ladies who are not their wedded wives.
