Our Foreign Relations. .
For many jears a dicu.ion lias been going
on concerning the absolute lack of anything
rcjcmbling a foreign or external policy on part
of the United State. With the announcement
of the so-called Monroe Doctrine, and the open-
door policy for China, our government has at no
other point assumed a definite or enduring posi
tion. Subject at all times to the mutation of
politics, the shift of control from one party to
another, carrying with it responsibility for deal
ings with other nations, our relations with the
world have been marked by an absence of con.
iiiiumg purpose, it not wnn actual levity, in a
large degree this is because Americans are tradi
tionally inclined to attend to their own business,
and to allow others to do the same. Not being
prone to meddle, we have not felt the need of
any such traditional policy as has been developed
by great European powers.
The Constitution of the United States clothes
the president with power to negotiate treaties,
but requires that these be ratified by the senate
before becoming effective. The purpose of this
is very clear. It serves to prevent the president
.from committing the nation to engagements with
other nations of a nature that will not be ap
proved by the senate, acting as a co-ordinate
branch of the government. If the rule had been
otherwise, then Mr. Wilson would have been
successful in committing the United States to
the Treaty of Versailles. His failure in this re
gard is ascrihable Solely to the check placed by
the constitution -on executive action. However,
this is not sufficient warrant- for the assumption
now gaining currency, that the senate has super
visory control over all foreign relations. v
It is now alleged that a breach is growing
up between President Harding and a group of
senators,' headed by Brandigee of Connecticut,
the latter holding that all communications
destined for foreign powers must be submitted
to and receive approval of the senate before
being sent to the government addressed Such
an innovation is not only a stretch of congres
sional authority beyond the reasonable limit set
by the constitution, but would possibly have the
effect of ending all communication between our
government and those of other nations. The
senate has no authority in itself to carry on such
correspondence, and it has no power to dictate
to the president what nature or form his corre
spondence shall .take.
In the controversy with President Wilson,
the senate was on safe ground; in the threatened
break with President Harding the opposition is
assuming a dangerous position, and one frpm
which it will be easily dislodged. It is only just
to credit Secretary Hughes with being in some
degree familiar with the fundamental law of the
land, and able to hold his own with the best
lawyers of the senate. Moreover, he has the
courage to change if he finds himself in the
wrong.

S practical joining of two essential objects of
roveritment responn to the popular will and
ctirient management. A despot may give tl
latter, but lack the former; town meeting is
ideal in achieving response to public with but
functions without efficiency. The struggle Is to
gam a sufficiency of both.
Some day the answer will be found In the
election of men to legislate, to express the pub
lie's desire as to what governmental policy should
be, and in the appointment of executives to carry
out broad policies with busmeis-like efficiency.
That is what the city managership will do.
Power and the Ship Canal.
The financial operation of the KebraLa
Power company, disclosed to the city commis
nioii whenever a rate question has been before
it for the last decade, lias been a monotonous
story of continual investment, not by thousands
but by hundreds of thousands of dollars, in order
to meet the tremendous development In the use
of electric power. New engines have been
bought, new boilers installed, new dynamos con
nected, yet with each extension the demand has
kept apaie and generally moved ahead.
In many respects this development, repeated
in every city and town of the nation, is the in
dustrial marvel of the age. Ainslie A. Gray told
the Klectrie club of Chicago this week that, of
the 2I,0i)0.000 homes in the United States, 14,-
000,000 are near electric power and 8,000,000 are
wired for electricity. Despite the industrial de
pression of 1921, he said, the electrical power
companies generally showed an Increased rev
enue due to the enormous growth of residential
lighting. The report of the super-power com
mission of the federal government declares that
a virtual power famine will exist in the Atlantic
seaboard states by 1930, unless vast new gener
ating capacity is developed. The industrial ef
ficiency of the decades to come, it declared, de
pend on sufficient and cheap electric power.
That is why Newt England is turning to favor
the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence waterway, be
cause it promises development of over 1,500,000
horsepower of hydro-electricity. That is why
there is such intense interest in the Muscle
Shoals development, which offers 100,000-horsc-
powcr for nitrate production and 500,000-horsc-power
for general industrial use. Electricity is
the bread of industry.
Politics Running to Seed.
Politics is the science of government, and to
Americans is vitally important, because it means
the government under which we live. Every
citizen should be concerned in politics at all
times, and take a lively interest in what is going
on. Yet there is such a thing as carrying the
game to extremes, and certain elements of the
population are running wild over the rules right
now. As simple a matter as a conference to
discuss the farm situation is turned to advantage
by the chief spouter for the farm bureau organ
ization, who announces that he wilt call the real
conference to order today. This is all right; it
is within his prerogative, and none will seek to
deter him. The public, however, will wonder
who constituted Mr. Ben Marsh and his sup
porters to be monitors and spokesmen for the
entire agricultural industry of the Unfted1 States'.
A special session of the legislature was called
in Nebraska, for the specific purpose of revising
downward the appropriations made last year.
Instead of taking hold of this business, the Nory
Partisan league element in the legislature, which
achieved election by masquerading as repub
licans, immediately set about to make medicine.
"Alfalfa John" Franklin turns in a demand for
a probe of the highway construction, and this
proves to be a curtain raiser for his campaign as
a candidate for congress. This ambition on his
part is wholly commendable, but why does, he
not run as a Non-Partisan leaguer, he being
openly and avowedly a member of that group,
and withdraw from the republican party, which
he so vehemently opposes?. .- ' ,
Real progressives, seeking desirable or needed
improvement in the conduct of government, de
serve and receive approbation, but the pseudo
progressives, who really deserve the classification
of radicals, are just now making a jest of popular
government in. America. ' S ;.
Getting Onto Practical Ground. -
The farmers" conference at Washington is
expected to give its approval to two great en
terprises that directly affect the industry. ' One
is the operation of the Muscle Shoals plant, to
produce fertilizer that will be of benefit to the
farmers of the south. The other is the building
of the great lakes-to-oceap waterway via the St.
Lawrence river, from which the farmers of the
middle west will derive a direct benefit in the
form of reduced transportation charges. Other
matters of more or less speculative importance
are being considered, some of which may ..not
be answered for a long time to come, but here
are two projects that may be taken up and made
immediately effective. Whether the Muscle
Shoals plant is leased to Henry Ford, or to some
other operator, or whether it is managed by the
government, it has reached a point in its devel
opment where it would be almost criminal fo
abandon it. . The fields of the south need the
fertilizer it will produce, and consequently it
will serve a most useful peace purpose. As to
the great St. Lawrence canal, it has been fairly
well "sold' on its merits to the farmers of the
country, and generally to the region that will be
served by it. Opposition comes from sea ports
that will lose something of their control, and not
from any other source. Endorsement in the
name of the agricultural industry of the nation
will carry much weight with congress, and doubt
less aid in securing the legislation needed to put
over these enterprises.
Pleasures of Retrospection.
Thousands of people, reading President Har
ding's delightfully naive and homely story of
how he once rode 200 miles, bought a dinner and
saw a "show" alt for $7 will be led to recall
how they did something equally enjoyable and
for a similarly small outlay, in "the' good old
days." They are apt to sigh regretfully at the
thought that "the good old days" are gone for
ever. , .
It is ever a trait of human nature to remember
the happy times and forget the sorrows as the
years pass by; It is one of the traits which makes
life worth living. But, to make sure that we see
life as it really is today, it is well to give these
happy memories their true setting. Let us look
back at "the good old days." Twenty-five or
thirty years ago the world was "going to' the
dogs" at an even faster rate than now, if one were
to listen, only to the backward looking pessimists
and pay no heed, to those courageous souls to
whom adversity is merely a goad to ambition,
disappointment only a spur to new effort. In
those days, too, men sighed for "the good old
days" and so it has always been.
President Harding told his story with a touch
of humor which indicated clearly that he gave it
true perspective. He recognizes full well that
the new day has its own pleasures and rewards,
which more than balance its disadvantages. Let
us who read it be sure to give it that same
philosophic setting.
Referendum on Alcohol
Results it Summed Up Fiom
Answers by tha Physicians.
(Front tht Journal of tht Amsricsn Medical
Auociauon.) ,
In bearing before congrett, In the dituion
of regulations iourd by the Internal Kf venue de
partment, in fact, in pranirally every diuui-'S)
ot prohibition, contradictory statements h
been nude as to the views of phyit un on the
value of alcoholic beverages therapeutic
ageuts, Several scientific organitationt have
adopted resolution on the subject. Ha far a we
know, however, no attempt lias heretofore been
made to atcertaui, in a direct way, the opinion
oi any considerable riiiinber of i hvicians.
Moreover, the medical atocution hat been
subjected to ridicule and criiicitm on account of
the actions of a small number of its members
who are abusing their privileges and who have
assumed a position in the public eye not rrrdita
ble to the profetiion at a whole. It therefore
seemed worth while to obtain the views of a large
number of physicians regarding tha effect on
medical practice of the present regulation; to
discover whether or not conditions might be im
proved, and if so, how.
In order to secure the views of a representa
tive portion ot tne medical provision a que,
tionnaire was sent to more than one-third 5.'.-
'XX) of the physicians of the United Ststet. Of
these, 4J.WHJ were selected by arbitrarily taking
every other name on the nuilinir lift of the
Journal, In towns in which there was only one
physician, the questionnaire was sent to that phy
sician. In addition, the questionnaire was tent
to 10.000 physicians who were neither members
of the organization nor subscribers to the
Journal. These names were selected in a similar
manner, but from the medical directory.
1 he excellent response, reaching 5H ner cent
of replies and representing 21. S per cent of the
physicians of the country, a percentage of return
seldom attained by the questionnaire method, hat
been gratifying as an indication ol the interest
taken by our profession in this attempt to secure
an adequate expression of its views.
At might have been expected, the Journal
has been accused by many of preparing these
questions wholly in the interest of prohibition,
and an equal number have asserted just as em
phatically that the questions were intended as
the opening wedge for breaking down prohibition.
Some have taken exception to the word
necessary," claiming that no drugs are abso
lutely necessary, and that "desirable" or "ad
visable" would have been a better word for the
purpose. This point was given careful consid
eration in formulating the question. Moreover.
the word "necessary" is used in the national
prohibition act itself (Section 7, TitlcII)

The word "advisable or "desirable would

perhaps, too strong; "necessary" does not mean
indispensable, and it was properly regarded by
practically all who answered the questionnaire.
The criticism has been made that the question
as to whether whisky is a necessary therapeutic
eent is a scientific one and can not be decided
bv resolutions or bv votes. This is true: and the
referendum was to secure the opinions of phy

City Manager the Solution.
Slowly perhaps but certainly, public- opinion
is turning to a realization that city government
is a question of business management and that
it is not being operated today with any approach
to the efficiency that a business concern must be
run, if it lives. Prof. C M. Fassett of the Uni
versity of Kansas told the Nebraska League of
Municipalities in Omaha: -City

fancy.
New York builders are proposing to erect
dwellings without profit, but the world is waiting
to be shown.
Omission of a road building probe will not
stop talk about it during the coming campaign.
One thing that is fairly well demonstrated is
that talk will not save the world. -'

AoDroximately one-third bf those replying
commented on the general prohibition situation,
on the restrictions and regulations, or on some
allied topics. The, more interesting of these com
ments have been published in connection with
reports on the individual states. Many of the
views, brought out in the comments are of value
to those who are interested in the subject from
the sociological or from any other point of view.
For instance: Since national prohibition went
into effect, judging by these comments there has
apparently been a reaction against prohibition in
many states in which prohibition by state law
had become accepted and effective. This is es
pecially noticeable in the comments from Colo
rado, Kansas, Nebraska, South Dakota,
and even from Maine. From the com
ments, one must conie to the conclusion that
ome-made, illegally distilled or chemically com
pounded liquors so-called "moonshine" are
being extensively used in states in which this was
not the case three or four years ago. VV hat has
produced this apparent change?
I he questionnaire has brought out dehnitcly
the fact that the present regulations governing
the medicinal use of alcoholic beverages are not
satisfactory in fact, many physicians declared
them "intolerable." Many who were convinced
that these drugs were not necessary therapeutic-:
lly were emphatic in stating that other phy
sicians who believed them necessary were en-
tied to have their views respected, and were
warranted in efforts to have the drugs made
available without incurring the odium attaching
under the present regulations.
Evidently most physicians are satisfied with
the control of narcotics as regulated under the
Harrison narcotic law, and many expressed a
desire that the control of alcoholic liquors follow
such lines. A decidedly large number of phy
sicians suggest that the government take over the
whisky, including its storage and sale, and sup
ply it in sealed packages say of 8, 16 and o2
ounces for medicinal use only, and at a fixed
price, under regulations similar to those of the
Harrison narcotic law, thus making available to
physicians a drug of dependable quality.

An American Romance
Once upon a time there was a poor boy who
became a lawyer and a politician in a small
town in a middle west state.- As a result he
became connected with the business end of na
tional politics, an assiduous and an able servant
of a great political party.
In the course of events the little lawyer phy
sically, of course from the little town became
postmaster general. For a while he contrived to
live upon his cabinet salary in Washington.
Soon came certain business men with a gunny
sack of gold and with a proposition to pay the
cabinet officer a whacking salary. The publicity
agents said to the public $150,000. At any rate
it was more than the pay of several cabinet of
ficers, or maybe the pay of the whole cabinet.
The little lawyer from the little town put his
hand into the gunny sack of gold and felt it. It
was real gold. He pinched himself. He said to
the business men, after due consideration: My
country majr need me. My country I May she
be always right, but right or wrong, my coun
