Bankers as Doctors.
i'ublic-spiritcd bankers from every part of
tr.e state' are in Omaha today. Not in recent
years has there been a more momentous gather
ing here. Agriculture, the chief industry of the
state, lies on a sickbed, and the bankers are
looked to as the doctors. Prices of farm prod
ucts are low, and many young farmers are almost
ready to quit their land; those v. ho set tip in
fs'.rniing within the last ten years are almost
without exception in dire straits.
' .'. .At a time when corn and hay are unusually
plentiful, there are 186,000 head of cattle less
'.I.an in the previous year. Grain prices are down,
jnd the farmer finds few if any signs of encour
tsexent. The question of credits and that of
r.arkets are closely interwoven, and if loans to
incouragc necessary production and make pos
sible more gradual marketing are forthcoming,
" ;onvalesccnce will set in.
A number of bankers have not been certain
how to proceed in co-operation with the War
Finance corporation. Only $1,000,000 has been
distributed through this channel in Nebraska as
yet. Farmer and stock raisers have been urging
their banks to become more active in this busi
ness, and as a result more advantage is now to be
sought through the federal loan fund. '
The bankers who are here today plan the for
mation of a corporation capable of obtaining
$10,000,000 for the farmers of Nebraska, at not
more than 8 per cent interest This will enable
thousands of food producers to store their corn
for better prices, to obtain hogs or other live
stock for feeding, to enter dairying, and to di
versify their activities in a way profitable to
themselves and to the entire business world. This'
is what the bonkers mean to do, and if they can
do what they hope, $1,000,000 a week will soon
be flowing into the financing of Nebraska agri
culture. "Poor Man's Diet" for Nebraska.
'"Nebraska must go on a poor man's diet,"
says former Governor Keith Neville, sounding 3
keynote for the democratic onslaught, based on
the depression that has overtaken the. state. We
wonder just where the cut will first be made.
Almost half the money raised by taxation in Ne
braska goes to support the public schools. The
greatest increase in cost of the schools results
from the added pay given to the .teachers, whose
salaries are yet- admittedly inadequate.
Do our democratic brethren contemplate put
ting the schools of the state on a "poor man's
diet?" Nebraska's best crop is babies and each
t'ny tot coming into the world increases the de
mand on the public schools. Are the children
now being born to be denied accommodation and
education, that the democrats may make a show
ing of what passes with them for economy? Or,
are the teachers to be subjected to a cut in pay,
and be put back On wages such as are given to
,. common labor or cash girls in department stores?
". City and county government come second in
ll:e division of the tax dollar. Expenditure here
is within easy control of the taxpayer, who may
avoid the expense at the sacrifice of things they
now deem necessary for safety and comfort. '
The next biggest item of public expense is
that of road building and public improvement.
Will the democrats cut off this work?
It is easy to talk of "poor man's diet," but
not so easy to put a great and growing state on
such restricted fare. Economy is needed; it has
not waited for a conference of democratic
politicians to discover that. Perhaps the devoted
coterie that hopes to overthrow the republican
administration in the state, and to send Gilbert
II. Hitchcock back to the United States senate
may yet give a definite outline to what is included
in "poor man's diet." More than likely they will
stick to generalities, hoping" to fool the people
again as they did in 1916, when Keith Neville
was elected governor.
The Bootlegger Pays.
A Wisconsin woman has been awarded $3,300
damages against the owner of a still who sold
liquor to her husband. This action it said to
have been under a federal law which provides
that any person injured by intoxication shall have
right of action against the party who sold the
liquor. The plaintiff told of the suffering brought
to her and the three children by her husband's
devotion to moonshine, how he lost hie job, how
their funds ran out so the neighbors' charity had
to be sought, and then as a climax, how he top
pled oat of a duckboat and wandered about all
Bight in a marsh, after which experience he was
committed for a time to the state hospital for the
insane.
These things happened under prohibition, but
their counterpart existed be fort the days of Vol
lttatL They illustrate the fact that the face on
the bar room Boor has not been entirely erased.
They suggest furthermore, that a few such snits
as this and the traffic in- moonshine will slow
down considerably. One of the stage jokes con
cedes a bootlegger who gives each customer a
whi.k broom to brush himself off with after
taking a drink. The results of illicit trade in
liquor, however, ire not to be thus easily cleared
away.
Europe Must Save Itself.
Apropos of the scheme of Senator Hitchcock
for an International banking arrangement to lead
the world out of the ilough of despond and
Into a condition of well fed prosperity, it is well
to consider this comment from the American
Exchange National bank of New York City:
Vague reference! to plant for the ttabiliza
tion of exchange being under consideration at
various timet and placet have led to quite a
general expectation that stabilization will tome
day be realized through a feat of legerdemain
performed by tome powerful group or astute
politician. The ttabilizalion of exchange is
not an impossibility, if the problem is tackled
at the right point, but all plant which involve
financial Juggling ere valuelej. The proposed
international bank issue that hat been dis
cussed from time to time during the last three
or four yeart may tome day prove a valuable
addition to the banking machinery of the
world, just as the federal reserve system has
proven of value to this country, but such a
system could work under normal conditions '
only, and it is idle to talk about ambitious
plans of this sort in a world which hardly
knows what is to happen next. European
financiers and statesmen may be expected to
continue the discussion of exchange stabiliza
tion despite the findings of the Brussels finan
cial conference, for the simple reason, that
when they talk about exchange stabilization
they are indirectly talking about debt cancella
tion. Sooner or later the subject of debt cancellation
is bound to come up between America and Eu
rope. However, it is not these debts that cause
the disparity in international exchange rates.
Stabilization depends on preventing further in
flation of foreign currencies and on increasing
production of goods, the lack of which two factors
is responsible for the present monetary situa
tion. To expect to accomplish restoration by
artificial means is too much. Mr. Hitchcock thus
iar has not had the support of a single leader
in finance. Although several schemes of some
what similar nature have been advanced by
otherr, they have not had any great support,
either. There is no salvation for Europe except
through its own effort.
Loose-Lipped Oratory.
A feature of our American life is the freedom
and facility with which orators state things "that
are not so. This docs not apply merely to the
radical, spouting from his soap-box, but includes
many who ought to know better. Intemperance
of speech is so generally indulged that it is no
wonder the public pays little attention to what
it hears, save as the mass reaction is periodically
manifest in mass revolt against some real or fan
cied grievance.
For this reason it is good to note that the
state commander of the American Legion has in
stituted suit in the name of the organization
against a thoughtless speaker who denounced the
Legion without sufficient information, giving him
the benefit of the doubt and admitting that he '
was sincere. The speaker might easily have( as
certained that the relations between the Ameri
can Legion and the . American Federation ': of
Labor are cordial in the extreme; that the Ne
braska department of the Legion invited ,Mr.
Samuel Gompers to address its convention, at
Fremont in October, and that the alleged -an-tagonism
between the groups is nonexistent.l,He
might, if he were to take the trouble, find union
working cards in the pockets of many wearers
of the Legion' button, and otherwise, have , in
formed himself before he gave utterance to the
assertions accredited to him. ,
He is no worse, "however, than the man who '
indiscriminately attacks organized labor because
he does not agree with its principles, its objects
or its aspirations. What is now needed in
America is a better understanding of the prob
lcSns'of the, several groups into which the coun
try is more or less definitely divided, soberer
consideration of these in their broader aspects,
and circumspection in both public and private
utterance. Loose lips and careless tongues breed
trouble.
Redeeming a Campaign Pledge.
The budget sent to congress by the president
calls for appropriations totaling just over $3,500,
000,000, nearly half a billion below the estimated
expenditure for the current fiscal year, and more
than two billions under the actual expenditures
for the year 1921. This is a showing that must
encourage the country and revive the hopes of
taxpayers, who have come to look upon the gov
ernment as a huge machine fbr impounding
wealth to be dissipated through bureaus and
boards. It is a further practical redemption of a
campaign pledge, made in sincerity and now
being carricdjsut in good faith. Mr. Harding
and the congress elected with him were devoted
by the platform to revision of the revenue law
and to strict economy in carrying on the business
of the government. Taxes will be lower next
year and less money will be expended. Business
is being relieved of burdens, and the government
is giving private enterprise a chance to expand.
Republicanism is justifying its victory.
Sinn Fein may break off negotiations with
Lloyd George; the Washington conference may
fail, but signs of approaching peace are not want
ing. The son of a Yale graduate has just been
elected captain of the 1922 Harvard foot ball
team.
.. Japan hates to scrap the Mutsu; well, for that
matter we do not like to see the Virginia go to
the junk pile, but that is where they are both
headed for. -
Japan might get along with the
own sea coast; the big difficulty is that she has
assumed the job of patroling the coasts of her
neighbors as well.
A budget of $3,300,000,000 would have looked
mountain high a few years ago, but compared to
what we have been having it looks like relief.
Maybe if the men will accept the cot in
wages and the bosses the union, "in principle,""
all the rest will be easy.
Education is another thing that ought to have
attention fifty-two weeks instead of one each year.
Nebraska democrats are active, but that is no
proof that they are happy.
"Hello, is this Congress? President Harding
speaking listen."
Who will bring the bacon home?
Despite the Ghouls
Conference at Washington
Nearing Humanity's Goal
(From the Philadelphia Ledger.)
It it the way of great conference bodies to
lapse into periodt of outward quiet. In such
period! much may be accomplished and very
little said about achievements. The Washington
conference having tettled down to the sober con
sideration of its two great purposes, is now in
such a period.
If i at inch times that the heyday of the
rumor-pcddler, the malignant trouble-maker and
the bilious petsimiit comet, inai tat tune oi
rutnort, black reports and inky catastrophes
when the world it lost, saved and lost again be
tween dawn and dusk is upon us. Now is tho
field day of the tupcrpessimist, who has vain
Imaginings, who sect a mrna.ee, In every cloud
fl'xk. a threat in every shadow and hears a voice
of warning in every little wind.
The happy day of the specially "trained seal"
is here, the time of happiness for the journalistic
cuttlefish. These big and little squid are pro
ceeding to throw out inky clouds and then grow
mightily alarmed about the darkness of their own
creations.
Just now the jackals run with their noses up
tilted to the moon. The ghouls are abroad and
are finding it a time of delight. They bury and
resurrect the conference a dozen times a week.
They race from burial slab to gravestone, scratch
ing out dead issues, dandling eyeless skulls
of departed and forgotten crises, moralizing
thereon. Alwayt they draw grave and sinister
conclusions, viewing with alarm. ;
Now Is the time of running and howling for
these folk of the dark minds, these apostles of
pessimism. Theirs is the gospel of despair. They
see failure loom at Washington, the French going
home, the Italians, Belgians and Dutch walking
away and leaving the conference sprawling help
lessly on its back.
Believe them and nothing has or will happen
save the passing of 'pious- and futile resolutions
about China and the scrapping of a few obsolete
ships. Take the word of another of this bilious
tribe and the "association of nations" idea was
still-born, the French and English are preparing
for a death duel across the channel. Italv is mob-
ridden and France is about to break out with the'
red rash of sovietism.
A few ghouls and grave-haunters, having dug
up the skulls and thigh bones of ancient national
feuds, are proposing to smother the conference
in despair and bury it in the reopened graves of
old quarrels. Some of them are whooping with
unfeigned joy at the prospect. They wish the
world to reel along with its battleships, its lethal
gases and its red toll of war dead till the end of
time. There are others who mourn aloud and
weep, wiping away the crocodilian tear. ,
The great trouble about all this pessimism is
that it is unreasonable, false, most of it malisrnant
and all of it unfounded. The conference is not
failing nor is it anywhere near failure. It is get
ting on with its work, in spite of all the doubts.
vaporings and speculations. .
Agreement is approachine on naval limitation.
The rivets are being broken and the chains
loosened on China. The Far East problem is
being dissected, examined and found solvable,
Naval ship construction has stopped in Great
Britain and stopped in America. It is slowing
to a full stop in Japan. We are talking about
scrapping, not building battleships.
In spite of the ghouls and alarmists, the con
ference is driving straight on toward its two
great purposes. From its opening hour there
has never ben a time when it was so much as
threatened with failure. These grave-diggers will
wait a long time for this corpse.
An Amazing Inquiry
This inquiry is propounded by a man promi
nent in the movement for the organization of a
new party:
.Why did not Mr. Hughes frankly state that
the United States would adopt disarmament as
a national policy, scrapping every battleship
and abandoning poison gas.and submarine war
fare as the first progressive steps in bringing
this about, as an example and precedent for
other nations to follow?
There are several reasons whv Mr. T-Ttiohps
did not frankly, state this.
the first reason is that he had no authority
to make such a statement. He was addressing
a conference called, not for millennialistic but for
practical purposes. Fancy the effect of such a
statement, not only on the visiting delegates, but
on the American people I Mr. Hughes would
have made a reputation for audacity or humor,
or both, unparalleled in history.
The second reason is that the secretary is not
a millennMst. He was chosen for his office be
cause of a reputation for sagacity he had shown
in other offices. The president did not invite an
untried man to occupy the secretaryship of state.
The third reason is that America is not a
millennialistic nation. It has its feet on the
ground now, and purposes keeping them there.
There need be no surprise in the fact that
the author of this amazing inquiry holds to the
opinion that both of the old parties are under the
control of the same influences. Nor need the old
parties have any fear of a new -party organized
on the basis of this opinion, and to be directed by
those who entertain it. Washington Post.
Poor Business Due to Thrift
Unemployment is not the sole cause of poor
business. Some merchants say it is, but for
every one who says it is there is a merchant who
says it is not. This shows that unemployment
as a cause is a local issue only, and not a na
tional ill. But the fact that there is great unem
ployment in spots is well known nationally, and
therein we have a real national fear of unemploy
ment reeaching those still at work. This is just
a i ,eJicactl0n from the spending craze of 1919
and 1920, borne out by the fact that financial
statistics show greater savings deposits than ever
before, though we must take all statistics with a
grain of salt in our analysis. Savings total may
be more in the aggregate, but it would be hard
to believe they would be more in cities of vast
employment like Pittsburgh, Haverhill or Lynn.
Inis works the other way about also. Unem
ployment by, many thousands in Pittsburgh,
Haverhill, Lynn or Lowell would not have any
immediate effect m rofail t,n.;nc. cn t -t
- - -.. "uivrs in odii ianc
City, Los Angeles or El Paso. The news of vast
unemployment would, however, cause uneasiness
and thrift in spending in those unaffected areas.
.Therefore, we must conclude that unemployment
is an effect of fewer sales due to lower values
and thrifty spending, and not directly a cause of
poor retail business except locally where it exists.

the nistry of the United States when men, just

The press does not believe that the function
of woman is to "make a political machine." It
does believe that women should be organized,
just as men are, to back the best candidate. As
it becomes increasingly apparent that organized
womanhood is going to support at the polls men
who stand for certain ideas, those ideas will
come to be written into platfotms, but if women
enter into the battle and barter of politics they
will lose their influence for good. Grand Rapids

I f H . fflfETALE OF
KEEPING FEET WARM.
From the bcslnnlnir of winter un
til the milder weather of iprins: a
islrly Isi'kd part of the people will
compmln of cold fprt and hands.
Among these will Ito the old, who
will be told that their thick wall
Mood vi'Htls cannot carry enough
Mood to their -xtremltle to keep
thove members warm, or that their
hearts have not enough force to
keep an ample aupply-of warm
blood In the suburbs.
Among them will he somn who
are aald to bo cold natured, and,
luntly, there will ha a group who
have Raynaud's dlHcnse or some
cousins of that dloease.
There nre some rioilo whoue
blood venspls are enough diseased to
rauve cold foot, but they aro very
few.
There are Others with heart
dlneaae, who have mottlvd akin on
their ankles and Rome droppy of tho
lQg", and they clearly have a right
to complain of cold fret.
But the Rreat majority of thone
who complain of cold feet and hands
are troubled because of vasomotor
diHtlurbnnce. There are nerve cells
and nerve fibers whkh enlarge or

herever more blood roes, there
heat will be. Wherever less blood
goes, there will be relative cold.
when It comes to tho matter of
comfort tho vasomotor system has
more to do with conditions than all
else combined.
Unfortunately, we know far less
about Influencing this vasomotor ap
paratus and, therefore, determining
comfort, than we do about controll
ing consumption and wiping out yel
low fever.
However, there are ft few simple
procedures which we know help In
keeping the feet comfortable In cold
weather, and at least one acts
through the vasomotor system.
If the feet are disagreeably cold,
we can warm them un by exercise.
or by breathing deeply. Thirty deep
breaths, one right after the other,
will warm up the feet end hands.
and make the face turn red. Unror
tunately, old people sometimes com
plain that this exercise makes them
dizzy. Stamping the feet, walking
fast or running- is effective.
This exercise muift be kept tip to
be effective. When the heart begins
to feel the effects, there will be an
impulse to stop, but this must not
be followed, since juet this feeling is
proof that the remedial forces are
turning iip.
In the discomfort from cold feet
which old people feel, the lack of
force of the heart and the thicken
ing of the vessels is less of a factor
than is deficiency of grease in the
skin.
Greasing the legs, feet and hands
will go a long way toward making
old people comfortable in cold
weather. . It took the world war to
teach us the value of grease for old
or young in keeping the feet warm
in bitterly cold weather.
To prevent trench feet, Barratte
h.id the men dip their shoes fre
quently in warm grease. They were
required to unlace their shoes for
16 minutes twice daily. -
The Italians prevented and cured
chilblains by wrapping the feet in a
mixture of 93 parts pure tallow and
4 parts pure lard, to which was
added 7 parts of a mixture of 1 part
salicylic acid, 3 parts aspic essence,
5 parts oil of lemon and 0 parts
lard.
Leonard Hill says that frozen feet
Bhould not be quickly warmed. They
should be kept elevated, uncovered,
cool and free to move.

Misj Kitty Cat lost her appetiu
for milk.
old dog Spot said that feeding good
creamy milk to the pigs was just
the same as throwing it away.
He made that remark to Miss
Kitty Cat, adding that it was a
shame that somebody was stealing
cream and declaring that he hoped
to catch the thief.
Miss Kitty Cat made no reply
whatsover. '
"Don't you- hope I'll catch the
guilty party? Spot asked her."
"Please don't speak to me!" Miss
Kitty Cat exclaimed impatiently. "I
don't enjoy your talk; and you may
as well know it.
"Very well!" said Spot. "But
when I catch him I'll let you know."
"She's jealous,"' Spot thought.
"She knows I'm a good watch dog.
And she can't bear the idea of my
catching a thief."
It was hard, usually, to tell how
Miss Kitty Cat felt about anything.
She was a great one keeping her
opinions to herself. It seemed as
if she wanted to be let alone by
everyone except Farmer Green's
family.
Having boasted about catching
the cream thief, old dog Spot began
to watch the buttery very carefully.
Search as he would, he couldn't find
a chink anywhere that was big
enough even for a mouse to squeeze
through.
One day he happened to catch a
glimpse of something moving under
the roof 'of the shed next the but
tery. To his amazement he saw
Miss Kitty Cat slip through an old
stovepipe hole that pierced the great
chimney which led down into the
buttery, where there was an ancient
fireplace, which hadn't been used for
years and years. Miss Kitty Cat
crept along a tiebeam and hid her
self in a pile of odds and ends that
somebody had stowed high up tinder
the toof and left there to gather

Averting Snoring.
Constant Reader writes: "Having
been a sufferer from snoring for
many years, I will tell how I found
relief. When retiring for the night
close the lips naturally without pres
sure, then moisten and apply a strip
of surgeon's silk isinglass plaster
about 1 inches long and 1 inch
wide, holding it firmly until it has
completely adhered. Then go to bed
and sleep. The plaster is very thin,
a little moisture from the tongue in
the morning . assures its easy re
moval. If the membrane of the nos
tril is dry an application of
white vaseline well up each nostril
is very helpful."
Common Sense
By J, J. MUNDY,
Get Together.
If employers would have heart-to-heart
talks with their men there
would be better feeling and under
standing. ' If employers or a representative
close to the boss (preferably the
employer) would meet with the men
and seek to have the problems
brought direct to headquarters,
these matters might be solved with
more agreeable feeling all around.
True, most business men are too
busy with their affairs to give much
VcHOCOLATEIS
INNER-CIRCLE J
time to the little affairs of their
employes, but niott active buinr
men have tnmrene who might act
for them.
In nearly all rutjbluhmcnt there
are men who htve money vrd.
They want to make in iiiveatmrnt,
but do not know how U go about
it, and they are fearful also lecaue
of tl:e poor investments that tome
friend of their have made.
There are other tittle matter
which might icem trivial to the bn.
but which mean a lot to t lie indivil
uul who it working for him.
Get acquainted vith your inn.
Know their problem. Let them
have aome of your experience, and
perhapt a five-minute talk w'lh vou
might olve a problem which had
been a source of worry for live
months or years,
It is the sharing of btit.me
knowledge which imkc the differ
ence between the popular and the
unpopular employer.
