Paying For Nothing
The information elicited by the federal investiga-
tion of the so-called power trust to the effect that
$84400 is expended annually in the preparation of ed-
itorial matter which ia sent free to newspapers of the
country is not sufficiently startling to warrant the in-
terpretation placed thereon by certain politicians.
Practically every newspaper in the United States
receives the editorial propaganda emanating from the
press bureaus of the power interests but that does not
signify the newspapers use that propaganda. As a
matter of fact in many newspaper offices it is con-
signed to the wastebasket unopened along with the
great muss of propaganda every daily newspaper re-
ceives from a multitude of sources.
No harm has been done by the propaganda the
power interests have attempted to disseminate through
the newspapers. In fact the power interests have been
victimized more than the public by the shrewd pub-
licity men who have given the impression they had
entree to the principal daily papers of the country and
could “put over" the propaganda. A check-up of Amer-
ican newspapers has revealed that only an infinitesimal
number have used any part of the propaganda and
that used has not been of an objectionable nature. The
propaganda such as the federal investigators has
brought to light has almost invariably been consigned
to the wastebasket.
The newspapers of the United States are conducted
bv men who at' able to distinguish between news and
propaganda. They realize that when they open their
columns to propaganda of any kind they are betraying
their readers curtailing the influence of their paper
and setting the stage for a steady decline in revenues.
Publishing a newspaper today is strictly a business
proposition and the publisher who permits his columns
to be used for the dissemination of propaganda of any
kind or character is in much the same position as the
merchant who tries to pass off shoddy goods on his
customers.
The row raised in regard to the power interest’*
newspaper propaganda is mostly a “tempest in a tea-
pot.” The news editor of practically every American
daily will bear out the assertion that if the power in-
terests paid out such sums as the investigation indi-
cates the money was practically wasted so far as in-
fluencing the public through the newspapers is con-
cerned.
Muzzling the Pres*
Suppression of the Minneapolis Saturday Press by
• n injunction secured in the district court and affirmed
by the supreme court of the state has aroused consid-
erable interest throughout the United States. Colonsl
R. R. McCormick publisher of the Chicago Examiner
has become so greatly interested that he has ordered
the attorneys of that newspaper to take the case to
the supreme court of the l nited States to test the
constitutionality of tho law under which the Minnesota
paper was suppressed by injunction.
The “Editor and Publisher" discussing the Minne-
sota case says: “It is difficult for a newspaper man
to understand why honest and fair public officials of
any state would want such a law as that which the
Minnesota legislature of 1925 enacted or why that
state’* courts could uphold a measure which substitutes
autocracy for the checks and balances of the estab-
lished jury libel system. It must be plain to all that
Minnesota has been fully proteted by libel laws <n
a reference to the publication of malicious scandalous
nnd defamatory matter injurious to person* or insti-
tutions. It must be plain that existing laws protect
the society of that state against obscene lewd and
lascivious publications. The Minnesota laws were
modern. The penalties were sevrre. Why was the 192<>
law wanted?
“This is a trrmendou power to hand over to. th?
public officials who. including judges arc after all
mere men and subject to the frailties of human nature.
IV* know how prone men are to abuse public power.
V. r know bow dangerous to public institutions is any
restriction of free criticism. 1 he Minnesota law is so
obviously hostile to the principle of free press handed
down by the fathers of the federal constitution and
retraced In the constitution of every state and Minne-
sota stands to lose so much and gain so little from it
that we confess our bew ilderro* nt concerning it.
"Thought on the subject among legislators must
Vive been very sketchy or public officials of Minneso-
ta must have dark reason for fearing a free press or
the 1925 law must be explained as ju t another instance
of freak legislation. The Unite*! States supreme court
without question will declare the law unconstitutional.
The prooe«s will take time and money.
M AR AND THE KE1» C ROSS
tSpringfield Republican!.
The failure of the International Red <_ro. s confer-
ence at The Hague which closed its labors Friday to
inch toy solut-on of the problem of protecting civilian
population* from gas attsck* confirms the impression
left by last year's unsuccessful conference that the
Red Cross is attempting something beyond its powers.
Furthermore it may be seriously questioned whether
such work falls within the proper scope of the organi-
zation. It is not for the Red Cross to devise technical
means for defending noncombatants against violence
of any aort and to assume any such responsibility
wruld be a great mistake.
To find ways to defend cities from a’l the agencies
»f attack which perverted ingenuity can devise would
be a perfectly bopele's undertaking and as was
jrought out at tho conference defense against poison
ras is only part of the problem. The same airplanes
jvhich could gas a city could be used equally well for
iropping huge bombs of high explosives not to speak
of the possibility which receives increasing notice
that in a future war water as well as the air may He
pmsoned. and di;*a«e germs ii'ed f<*r spreading terri
Mr epidemics. To foil such devilish attack* is outside
the field of tha Red Cross which may however prop
JL„. a 11 . -
erly use its influence to promote international agree-
ments for the protection of noncombatants.
The distinction is important because if the Red
Cross were to succeed for example in providing places
of refuge for the population of a city the city would
to that extent become a fortified place and the exist-
ence of the defenses would be a plausible excuse for
attack. Every large city haa some military importance
to that bombardment might be defended if the legiti-
mate results were not overbalanced by the harm done
to noncombatanta; to provide for their aafety would be
inviting the bomb squadrons to do their worst.
It may as well be recognized to begin with that
there is no possible means of protecting the swarming
populations of great cities from the terrible agencies
of destruction which can be used against them and in
so far as the two Red Cross conferences have empha-
sized the impossibility of a solution they may be of
use. But having demonstrated this the Red Cross
might as well let that aide of the question drop and
use whatever influence it possesses in favor of new con-
ventions for the control of bombardment whether from
the sea or from the air and whether with poison gas or
with high explosives. Here the international and hu-
manitarian spirit of the Red Cross can be useful but
the responsibility for civilizing war rests with the gov-
ernments of the world.

ANCESTORS
The tendency to worship one’s ancestors is as old
as the human race and I don’t know how old that is.
When a people lives thousands of years in one locality
of course the tendency to ancestor-worship grows into
religion and more. It becomes a social custom a po-
litical creed and a business necessity. In China for
instance where the first families have been carrying
on in the same locale for six or ten thousand years it
is not surprising that the body sociale is rather op-
pressed by ancestor-worship. It is practically impossi-
ble there for anyone to undertake any new dustom or
mode of action since the Chinese ancestors didn’t do it.
America has had almost none of this ancestor-wor-
ship and hence has made vast progress. Americans
arc all immigrants or children of immigrants who
landed on this continent not more than a few years
ago. Those whose ancestors came over with Captain
John Smith haven’t much of an edge on those whose
fathers arrived this morning since the difference in
time is negligible.
• * • •
There has been soma effort or perhaps merely a
tendency to :<ct up the Puritan colonists who lived at
Plymouth as our national ancestors and to do a bit of
worshiping at their shrines. Naturally this tendency
has not gone far since the Plymouth colony was really
only one of many that contributed elements to the
original nation that was called the United States and
those elements have been blended through the years
with other elements equally respectable and honorable
coming in from all parts of the world.
Americans have such a pleasant sense of humor that
they are apt to be spared the paralysis of ancestor-
worship for another thousand years at least. Ances-
tors naturally are somewhat funny because they hap-
pened so long ago before a good deni of today's light
was available. And Americans have a way of laughing
at the funnyisms of remote ancestors not disrespect-
fully but good-humoredly.
There is a book called “The Not-Quite Puritans” re-
cently published by Little Brown & Co. which directs
some interesting light upon the foibles and oddities of
the Plymouth folk. It’s harmless but It helps to keep
us from falling into a Chinese attitude toward the
founders who lived at Plymouth.
OVERPRODUCTION IN U. 8. INDUSTRY DECRIED
By JOHN E. EDGERTON
President National Association of Manufacturers.
(John Emmett Edgerton was born in Johnson
county. North Carolina Oct. 2 1879. He is a grad-
uate of Vanderbilt college. He was the co-founder
and president for seven years of Columbia
11 enn.) Military Academy. He has been president
of the Lebanon Woolen Mills since 1912 and is
i n°w president of the National Association of Man-
ufacturers. In 1921 he was a member of President
Hardings conference on unemployment. He is a
democrat and his home is in Lebanon Tenn.i
1 here is a great menace in the way in which Amer-
icans are allowing the nation's traditions and customs
to l»c altered at the wish of unassiniilated immigrants.
Turning toward the economic horizon the most onii-
nu- problems which 1 sec are those which appear to
have resulted from the general loss of balance between
production and distribution. Of practically all com-
modities which America can produce it is producing reg
ularly from 15 to 50 per rent more than it has the ca-
pacity and power to consume and dispose of profitably
in other available markets.
It is safe to say that a general average of 40 per
rent of all the factories that arc operating at all to-
day are doing 60 at a loss.
Unless therefore through the well-paid employment
of its people the nation’s purchasing power is kept rel-
atively equal to its expanding capacity for consumption
we shall inevitably have an increasingly embarrassing
excess of supply over demand. Our transcendent prob-
lem is and will probably continue for some time to be
our surplus productions in factories as well as on
i farms. %
As the pressures of economic law descend oppress-
' ively upon larger numbers the mass demand for legis-
lative remedy will surely increase in volume. This
contingency and much destructive conflict could of
course he avoid'd by voluntary curtailments of pro-
duction in those trades most embarrassed by the sur-
pluses. But there are too many swine in human flesh
and too much short-sightrj disregard among manu-
facturers as among farmers for their competitors'
rights to expect voluntary relinquishment of temporary
advantage for permanent gam or ethical considera-
tions. t

“I wanted to be the first to welcome you.”
REAP THIS FIRST: .
A tender and thftlling romance
was woven into the marriage of
Byrd Hamilton the beautiful un-
spoiled daughter of Jim Hamilton
president of the Jacksonville Sav-
ings and Loan company and Law-
rerce Browning a young and - ue-
eessful investment broker from
Cleveland. During the ceremony
Byrd felt a little uneasiness over
Larry's glamourous personality that
had won him success so easily; but
her fears were dispelled by sheer
faith and deep love. After the
goodlbvs had been said her father
gave them a check for five thou-
sand dollars “with no strings to it.”
tNOW GO ON WITH THt STORY)
* * •
CHAPTER II
Thcv were on their way to Cin-
cinnati 'pinning along under the
*tar!it sky. They were to spend
the night at the Blackstone hotel
; nd the next evenirg they were
leaving for White Sulphur Sprirgs.
As they sped through the black-
ness Byrd had the sensation that
they wer flvine through space with
an unfatoifnhl sea all around them.
She felt ns if Jacksonville had been
blotted out as if in fact the ent re
world had dropped ir.to oblivion
leaving only Larry and herself t'.e
survivors of the universe.
“Wasn't it bully of father to give
us the check?" nj:ed Byrd with a
little thrill in her voice. "Shall we
buy a cunning little house or put
it in the bank?*’
Byrd felt rather than saw the
teasing smile that illuminated Lar-
ry’s face. Larry’s smile no matter
whether it wjt* conical or gay grip-
pd her Ilk* 4 l*a lightning with
its shattering .tagneiism.
“You've got the same illusion that
most people have about money in
the bank. Why. it^ doesn’t mean a
thing. Say did you ever know a
hank president who kept his money-
in the hank?” he smiled triumph-
antly.
Byrd nuckrred her straight dark
brows that lifted h*r face like a
pair of outstretched wires. All her
life sh* had been taught the wi§-
l
dom of thrift and economy and sav-
ings accounts.
“But father's run a hank all his
life and it's a rule he practices
.as well as preaches—” began Byrd
with spirit.
“Sure he has fo 'preach thrift to
his depositors. People havo to save
or how could he run his hank*’’
Larry laughed outright at Byrd’s
discomfiture. “But let's not worry
our heads about money tonight!”
Byrd had such a firmly round and
deliciously soft little body that
leaned against him so closely so
disturbingly that he was almost on
tho point of saying: “Anything to
make you happy darling!” But he
didn’t.
“All those Cleveland people who
came down for our wedding are ■
-pending the night at the hotel.
”! hev're giving a little party for us j
in their room*. 1'emember their
fames?” asked Larry.
“N’o. nor their fae* either”
laughed Byrd. “That reception line
seems as hazv to me now as the
| MilWv Way. Who are they?”
1 "Well. there's Fred Oberman
who's giving the party and his wife
! Tiny. Nice peopl". He’s in real
astate. in investments in politics.
Everything. He’^ taken quite a
shine to me. ard if I can get in some
of these deals wi»h him. I'm made.
Then there’s Chet Everson and !n-
d a Campbell. He's been <*razy about
her for years but she's a little spit-
fire and treats him like mud. And
Jack Duncan a member of the firm
and his wife. Margy.”
Byrd always felt overawed by the
elegancy of large hotels and suffer-
ed as she thought in contrast to
the women elegantly gowned who
moved with an air of being thor-
ouglhy accustomed to such magnifi-
cence. Now trotting behind Larry
her heels clicked self-consciously
along the marble floors of the
black-tone hotel.
Bellhops were crowding around
them like flies over a jar of
honey and T-nrry singled out two
to carr\ their hag*. Byrd thrilled
at the air of i-different assurance
with which Larry managed things.
Why with the {.lightest raising of
his eyebrows the whole staff came
running. The room clerk bowed
obsequiously. The manager who
evidently had been expecting them
came forward to extend his congrat-
ulations.
While Byrd stood embarrassed
under the strong lights Larry re-
flected a nice mixture of suavity
which appreciated these attertions.
ami a superiority which indicated
that he was quite accustomed to
them.
As they walked down the corridor
on the tenth floor to their rooms
Byrd enught a glimj se of the wide
blue-gummed caverns that grinned
broadly at each other in antirjrm-
tion of the tips that came from
newly-weds.
“I don’t know how to act in a
swanky hotel like this” said Byrd
“lather always picked out some
good old ’Ironsides’ old and respect-
able.”
“Always pick out the be't. hon-
ey. Bluff 'em a little! The world’*
made of bluff!’’ answered Larry
tucking her arm under his. ‘‘See
where it’s gotten me. and with It I
expect to get to the ton of the lad-
der!”
Months later Byrd had occasion
to learn with grief and bitterness
that bravado and bluff hadn’t
brought Larry to the top but had
brought him perilously near rum in-
stead.
To Byrd’s inexperienced eyes
their suite seemed very grand with
its heavy brocaded hangings and
'tc i" upholstered furniture. The
bell-hops had suddenly become ani-
mated like two little black marion-
ettes. ivailing to open window:
ruH'ng out dresser drawers opening
rloset doors aid peeking into the
bathroom to see that everything
was in perfect order.
Larry this is the most wonderful
moment of my life” Byrd said. *
little huskily with a hushed not*
in her voice. ‘‘Our great adven
ture!”
Byrd hud taken off her coat and
hat and stood by the window. 1 h«
stars designed the sky with an all-
over pattern of the most exquisite
lace. .'*he caught Larry as he wa
about to open his bags and drew
him to her side.
Her eyes were deep wells with tiny
heavens floating up from their bot-
tomless depth*. Together they gazed
out on the gleaming lights of the
city lights that peppered the spring
sky circling higher and higher. The
lighted panes in the big building op-
posite resembled the windows of
great cathedrals with the stained
light hanging in them like little
balls of opalescent fire.
W ith a swift gesture Larry turned
out the lights and drew Byrd down
on his knees. He kissed her eyes
her soft cheeks her aureole of gold-
en hair.
"Do we have to go to that old
party?” a.'ked Byrd running her fin-
gers shyly through his thick black
hair that felt like the swift thiust ot
a mountain current against her fin-
gers “I wish we were going to stay
here by ourselves.”
“Mi hy this is your coming-out
party! ’ said Larry. “You’re gem*
over big tonight. You’re going tc
strike them all of a heap!”
Then he caught her to him ant
held her so tight that she told him
between breaths that she just knew
that a vertebra had popped out o!
place.
Suddenly the telephone bell rang
Larry switched on the light and tool
up the receiver. His face lit up.
“Well be down in a jiffy! But re
member no rough atuff * • * In
married now!”
There was increasing tumult a
more voices shouted and laughed int«
the telephone.
“Say. that sounds as if my handi
cap’s about thirty. You big rummies I
Who’s this party for anyhow?”
The noise suddenly stopped. Some
one had banged up the receiver.
“That’s Fred Oberm&n. and
wants us to hustle down” said !>arry
Byrd put on an **■>»!'- d- ■* of deef
blue that made her look like a beau
tiful swavipf*. dancing larkspur. !l
brought out the d*op sapphire tone*
of her eye*. Larry sa-d she looked
heavenly.
Larry ordered orange juice ami
mineral water and now from tho
bottles he had taken out of his bag
he deftly mixed a cocktail.
“We can't go down there with a
deficit” he said smilingly. “We’ll
begin at the bottom and work up.
Like my career. From gin to presi-
dent. eh?”
Byrd was embarrassed. They had
always been warned at home against
the evil consequences of liquor. Her
mother continually quoted passages
from the Bible.
“Look not upon the wine when it
is red * * * at last it biteth like a
serpent and stingeth like an adder."
Byrd shook her head. Lary con-
tinued coaxingly:
“This is our special celebration!
Just think dear this may be the last
wedding we’ll ever have! * * * Be-
sides being married is such a strain
on one’s nerves * * * if you’re not
used to it! * * * Look at me. I’m a
perfect wreck! * * * Come on. dear
be just a little reckless just this
once! Just tonight! Our wedding
night!"
She drank the tiny glassful slowly
gulping a little.
Suddenly the door was thrust un-
ceremoniously open. A yellow cloud
swirled into the room dancing
laughing swaying this way and that
as if blown by a breeze. It was
India Campbell.
“I wanted to be the first to wel-
come you” she said running up to
Larry; but she stopped uncertainly
in front of him.
Her swift eyes darted around the
room and rested on Byrd as if she
were measuring her weighing her.
Then the looked enviously at the
bottles and laughed recklessly.
“Teaching you all his little tricks
eh V* she said bitingly. “I hopr
you’re thrilled to death with this
great big brute of a min!"
Larry's lips smiled a forced smile
but his eyes were very disagreeable.
Then he seemed to realize that In-
dim’s eyes were a little glazed and
she swayed ever so slightly.
“May I introduce you to ray wife?*
asked Larry gravely. “This in India
Campbell.’*
A mist like early morning dew
appeared a India's eyes.
“I hope you’ll both be very hannr'*
she said in a low tone. “Let’s drink
a toast to Mrs. Lawrence Browning."
Browning.”
To Byrd Larry seemed just the
least upset but he poured out three
cocktails in silence. This time Byrd
could refuse it. The tears started to
plunge into her throat and burned
there like molten steel.
She walked ahead of them out of
ihc door down the corridor toward
the elevators a atrange. unfamiliar
emotion tearing her atabbing her so
that her heart seemed to knock about
unsteadily. Something seemed to he
clawing at it like a live thing like
a crab gnawing gnawing.
Angrily she denied to herself that
she was jealous.
Then she was aware that India
and Larry had stopped a moment a
little part of a moment before he
banged the door and Byrd thought
she heard a whispered word and a
caress.
FOie walked proudly on refusing to
turn her head.
