THE FINAL ADMISSION Had th r.'.r.e nation now pathwfd at Washington flow ncthing more than to trikingly demonstr.it the r.eccrüty for a permanent and continuing a relation of nation.. it. conf-rer.ee would be 3 unified. Fach step in the deliberation has laid more cm?has!a cn the final ncri-üty of some organization of the world which will maintain peace through friendship and arWtramsr.t. if civilization Is to endure. It was a difficult task for an administration that went Into power on an lue of keeping out of the lagje to rncet the conditions of the world and save its own face. For flnwly and inevitably, the United States 1 tecominjr a of the great concert of nations and very .rare! and flowiy it will bo brought home that the L-tj -. to which practically every other nation on earth save the United State rave assent end of which they are now members, is the proper body and vehicle of region. It remained for HUhu Root, always a friend of the Ix-apuo of Ration in principle although a political foe of Woodrow V.'ll..n. with whose name it will be forever linked, to put the admission of the necessity of the hcauo Into words and to confer that the dch .ona of thLa conference are futile unless the rest of th world join In their sanction. That admission carrn when he drafted the rules for B'Jbmnriny warfares rules whlrh eimrply eay that these asassin of the s,a will not fdnk commercial vereis or duplicate th destruction of the JVJsltania in the event of war. After the rules were agreed to. this significant paragraph wn added: "The signatory powers invito all other civilized powers to rxprts their assent to tho forcjroinc; statement of t-stiibtlshcil law m that there may bo clear public understanding: throughout tho world of tho sUindnnH of conduct by which the public opinion of tho world Is to paxs Judgment upon future I 11 lereren ts. There it Is. the final admission that all nations, great and small, must give their vote for peace before there can bo real peace. The iplaco where the assent of all civilized nations, except Germany, Russia and the United Statt-?, can be obtained, la in the League of Nations fur all others arc' members. ILid the United states ratified the Versailles treaty, the gathering at Washintgon would be a meetir.f,' of all these nations, not nine. Tho proposals frr reducing tho horror of war, if war can b'- rvMd of any of Its horror, which U doubtful, would be- submitted for the public action of all these nations. Tho agreement to this proposal and the open voicing of the appeal will he most welcome to the friend.-i of the League for this conference has demonstrated that nations can pet together and work out common problems hut admits that all nations on earth must be parties to that agreement. 'Whatever the organization may bo called association, conference or leapue, tho world Is learning that it needs a common meeting place. And that would bo worth all tho trouble of the conference. Even such demonstration L a sign of hope, no matter how much disappointment may come from the futile decisions fto far made. It might almost bo paid that the United States Is half way Inside the league already, when it asks in plain, open words for the approval of all nations which are members of that league, and shows a determination to live on terms of open agreement with them.

THE DANGER OF EPIGRAMS In the.o days whn prent concerns are porting helpful advice to employes on the rth to euccesfl, it mlpht be well to remember that advice is for tho-e who know how to u.-e It and to understand It. Among the rules that were recently pasted on the walls of one of tlu b'.c-est factories in this country is an epipram accre.litod to Andrew Carnegie which fays, "Don't ro r.fhamed of swcoplncr out the oflice."

Thy open th'lr pocketbooks but close their live and minds. As success Is usually accompanied by some wealth, and fame alwayB with an atmosphere of Klamor, the temptation of tons of IlIu?tiiou.s' fathers is to live upon the money and the records of their parents, rather than directing their minis to creating: their own fortunes and their own fame. - These mrji are singled from the crowd not because of themselves but because their fathers have attained eminence and they may easily think of llfs In terms of the praise given to the family. It is no help to ambition for ony youth to enter

mahood with every physical need satisfied and with j

n ppur to h! ambition. It is no aid to the energetic to find themselves bo laden with fame that it may seem usless to achieve. The decadent aristocracy of Kuropo which L? now crumbling and nearly gone, lived upon the fame of family traditions. Their lives were centered on the past, not the future. Their thought? turned to ancestors, not descendants. It would be bigger news to know what the grandson of this beggar of Paris may be 30 years hence. That boy, if there bo one, will have some real Incentive to ?et out and hustle for himself.

WHY DAN GAS? The "next war" will Fee no repetition of the use cf deadly graues upon the battle field, if the five powers now in conference happen to be mixed up In the "next war." That announcement "will be pleasing; to the humane sense of people who shudder to think of the eilent death that comes etealing Into tho battle fields, of the dreadful scars and the lasting pain and misery and sickness which it broug-ht. The most important thing: about the decision Is that the nations have agreed about SOyUZTllTSG and have again established a precedent for settling matters by words, not budlcts. As far as the effect of the resolution goes, it will probably be perfectly usless, for In war madness comes to nations and all thoughts of humanity are driven from the heart. War cannot be abolished by making it .safer to fight. The menace of war cannot be removed by holding out tho bait of making it less dangerous. For war is a matter of national rage and Its business Is to kill. The sole thought is victory and victory can only bo gained by killing the largest number in the quickest possible time or in starving the civilian population behind the armiea into submission. .Tili country has worked out the secret of some super-deadly ,-ase.s that now repose in the fll'3 cf the war department. If the use of those gases stood between the maintenance of liberty and freedom for future generations and the domination and servitude to some foreign foe, whoso customs, manners, thought were alien to our own, would this agreement keep the people from demanding that they be saved? Would you, who read this, demand that the government stay its hand from this terrible instrument of death, if that means alone offered to ave your home, your children, your liberty from the ravishing hand of oppressors? When you answer that question for yourself, you will understand the full benefits that come from thia resolution .important only because it emphasled the demand of the people to outlaw all war. Tou will understand, too, that the cure for war is peace, not the fixing In advance of tho kinds of weapons with which war will be fought. It is a fine thing for civilization to show its distaste for the barbaric and inhuman in whatever form It appears. It will be a finer thins for men to quit thinking Of war and wondering: what can be done to maintain peace through friendship and to fend the danger of ever again using the death grapple to settle disputed questions.

Tim yi:.i; ix goimaxy. (Baltimore American.) The annual report of tho Hamburg chamber of commerce s?ems to have fomo tough thincs to say about American policy, which, of course, inclines one to show scanter hospitality to some of the other ideas advanced in it. Nevertheless, it being always advisable to get big problems and little into their right perspective, cne issue the report raises or, more exactly, one flat statement it makes takes precedence over everything else. Germany, it declares, did her best to fulfill her reparations obligations in 1021 and failed; therefore the necessity of lightening those obligations, if the world Is to pet ahead commercially, is proved. Wo may believe that Germany did try; we know she did not succeed. The question is, first, whether f-he tried her best and, pecond, whether one year is sufficient for the test of her burden-carrying power. Undoubtedly ihe is much worse off financially and industrially at the end of the year than she was at the beginning. has practically no poM left and the mark has declined to approximately one-third even of its already nominal value. The point of the whole matter is that Germany's power of recuperation should be preat. She has not shown it. Xor doc the mere chance of petting out of money payment.- she would be forced to make if prosperous account sufficiently for her people steadily going down hill. That is not the way human nature works. Ts the failure of Germany to como up due to the weight of her burden, or is it due to governmental mismanagement and Incapacity? We do not expect her to be worse eff three years after the armistice than two years after it. Ar.d with a bankrupt Germany, all tho other states to the oast and south of her remain more backward still, for she con ftitutes their market.

IX)RI. (Toledo News-Bee.) Henry Ford is quoted as saying he paid Uncle Fam $76.-000,000 in taxes last year. If his taxes were that big, hLs taxable income must have been more than $100,000,000. The Wall Street Journal quotes this comment by an anonymous banker: 'The Class I railroads will have a net operating income for 1921 .lightly in excess of $600,000.000 of which creditor.- will receive about S 5OC-.000.000. and t-. owners will aceru a little more than $lPO.O"'0.oe. in short, all the Class I railroads in the United states, will have in 1321 about the same taxable income as i.d h.ol in the year to which he refers." The reason? Ford believes in bis' volume of business at low prices. That system Jiould be applied to freight rate.

"All for myself I must hustle to

Let others prate of their service for Man, I'm on this earth to get all that I can." Old Man McNabb sits alone In his wealth. Broken in spirit and broken in health. "Cold Is the world." he declares, all alone; Never a friend he can trust has ho known. Nobody Ftops at his doo day by day. Nobody pauses a kind word to say. Now he discovers, with life near Its end, One can prab money but can't prab a friend.

He wanted it all for himself, did McNabb. Greedy and selfish and eager to grab, Working for others he thought was a crime, A waste of his effort, a wasto of his time; Seeking tho profit, he went on his way Making the world what he finds it today. Now. at the end of his road, he has learned He who spurns others shall some day be spurned. "I am the fellow," thought Old Man McNabb.

VERSE O' CHEER By Edgar L. Jones

TIIKX AND NOW. You doubtless remember the tale Of the night, which, wintry and wild. Yet was pierced by the heart-rend ing wail Of the helpless saloon-keeper's child. She sat in her lowly, thatched cot, On a cheap little, mean little street; Distressing, Indeed, was her let, For she had but a dry crust to eat. The brewery'd foreclosed on her thriftless old dad And the crust a quite small one was all that she had. She knew if for aid she applied What the pitiless neighbors would say. And so she just sat there ar.d iried, Which cheered her a bit in a way. Far be it from her to beg bread. Or to crave, say a pie, as a boon, And to hear it remorselessly said, "Your father he keeps a saloon!" So she ate up her crust in a single brief bite. And vainly sought sleep for the rest of the night. How altered conditions today.

When "saloon-keepers flourish r.more, And the bootlegger drop? in to s iv Thnt he'e got a nice case of "prewar!" "Two hundred a case for five-star," lie snarls in a hard, rasping vole: "I've promised my daughter a car And I think she prefers a RollsRoyce." You pari it perhaps and buy six quarts of water. But you never will weep for the bootlegger's daughter!

Show me a lad who does his work And does it right, who doesn't shirk, 'Put tries to do his honest haro Of toll; treats his employer fair Py doing all the work he can. And friend, I'll s-how to you, a man.

Show me a lad whose smile is gay

When troubles loom along the way. Who grits his teeth and digs right in And fights, although he may not win, If he will ficrht and try and plan, My friend, I'll show to you a man. Show rue a lad who greets despair With smiles, and who will do his sha re And more, of work there is to do. And I will show, my friend, to you, A man who can not help but find Success to crown the daily grind.
