VICE-PRESIDENT MARSHALL
SUGGESTS STRIKE CURE
If the American people could see
conditions in Europe at first hand as
he has there would be no more strike
or inXntrial disturbances in Amrica,
according to Vice-President Thomas
R. Marshall, who has just returned
from a tour aboard. He is of the
opinion that European nations will
not be able to do business until they
let England and the United Stater,
put their finances on a sound basis.

Many have thought Jesus Christ
had “crazy ideas.”
Don’t laugh at the man with the
idea which seems “crazy” just because
it’s new. If there had never been any
new ideas we would still jail lunatics
and debtors, burn men for witchcraft,
and use pinekqots for illumination.
It’s not so long since a Republic was a
“crazy idea” in government.
Some day the nfan Will be born
whose “crazy idea” will end war, op-
pression, strikes, crime and fraud. He
will be laughed at, as all leaders have
been. But let us, you and men, be not
among those who deride, merely be-
cause not yet has it bee It given to us

betterment, comes from God.
