BY ARTHUR BRISBANE
Asked his opinion of Mr. Craig's
Sentence for contempt of court, W.
G. McAdoo wires this writer as fol
lows:
"Comptroller Craig’s criticism
never seemed to me to exceed legal
or professional proprieties. The
freedom to make fair comment upon
judicial action is just as essential
to the operation and security of de
mocratic institutions as a like free
dom to comment on the acts of other
governmental departments.
“I do not believe that the ends of
law and order can be carved best
by granting immunity to the Judi
ciary from fair criticism. Other
wise, we are in danger of establish
ing a judicial tyranny.
"Since the Supreme Court has sus
tained Judge Mayer's position, 1
should, if in his place, remit the
sentence on the ground that tha
dignity and authority of his court
have been sufficiently vindicated
and that no further action is neces
sary in the case of the technical
contempt, which, as T understand it,
was not intentional."
“W. Q. McAdoo.”
W. G. McAdoo Is at present the
most conspicuous candidate for the
democratic nomination. Hiram John
son, most conspicuous republican
candidate, outside the White House,
has already expressed himself vlg>
orously on the Craig case.
Apparently, the process of stop*
ping criticism by sending critics to
Jail is not taken kindly in America.
What President Coolldge will do
Is not yet announced. It does not
seem probable that he will fall to
use his power In rebuke of star
chamber methods.
Mr. McAdoo Speaks of Ihe Supreme
court having "sustained Judge May
er’s position.” The supreme court,
however, did not decide *he case jn
full, by the means. It mfiefy de
clared that Mr. Craig’s lawyers had
gone the wrong way about setting
aside the sentence for contempt. And
Justices Holmes and Brandels em
phatically denounced the sentence
Imposed.
If Judge Mayer Is wise and listens
to public opinion Instead of heed
ing sycophants that surround all
Judges, he will find a way out of the
difficulty for himself.
Whryfc beavers need houses, they
cut down trees, dam a stream, then
build with entrance below ths
water, safe and warm.
No one ever saw a beaver wonder
ing, "where can I find a place to
live?"
That nonsense Is left to men, of
whom millions, with all their science
and intellect, now lack decent hous
ing, even in this rich nation.
S. W. Straus, of New York and
Chicago, who has built houses all
over the United States, financing
within 20 years, probably, nure
building of homes than any other
10 men, recently discussed the hous
ing problem with President Cool
idge. Mr. Straus told the presi
dent that this nation, for building
alone, will require eight billions bf
capital in the immediate future.
It’s a big program, but It has this
good side:
It means continuation of good
times In building, much work and
good pay for mechanics for years
ahead.
If work can be kept plentiful and
wages good, there will be no need
about worry as regards prosperity.
Senator Ferris, of Michigan, In a
farewell talk to the “home town"
says great fortunes should not be
used at their discretion by heirs,
ignorant of life. He proposes not
merely to tax Inheritances, but to
absorb thorn, the government taking
practically all.
It does seem foolish for the child
of a reservation Indian or the half
Fi'.iplno child of an American sol
dier to Inherit, with the “right" to
squander, millions of oil dollars.
Unit there Is something Involved
mure important than the squander
ing of some millions or even billions.
'i'he country’s development needs
ha:d work from the ablest men up
to the hour of death. And men will
work hard for their children keeping
at It long after they have got all
they need and more.
f!ay to them "your children can
no; have It," and you kill their am
bit.on. Foolish, perhaps, but it’s so.
A coal black lion killer In Africa
demands 60 fat black wives as his
reward. Most foolish, for lie does
not need so many. But let him
have them. He won’t kill lions. It
you refuse.
I.et Inheritances be well taxed, as
in England, that great accumulations
may gradually melt. But don’t kill
Incentive with any kind of taxation.
Incentive to hard work is more im
portant to the nation than any
number of millions, no matter how
foolishly spent.
Senator Ferris says that young
i men and women have a much bet
ter chance in life If they start with
little.
Quite tfue. Even a half-fool can
j succeed In spite of poverty. It takes
| a superior being to succeed In spite
of wealth and in spite of the flat
tery that goes with wealth.
The late "Tinplate King’’ Leeds,
wl% se widow married Prince Christ
opher, and whose son married Prin
cee.s Xenia, said to this writer/ "I’d
give a million dollars to any one
able to tell me how a rich man’s son
can escape being a fool.”
More new high record prices in

L< arned financial writers are dis
j cussing "Just what will be the ef
1 feet on this country when Europe
is finally pacified?"
Yi ur great grandchildren won’t
be able to answer that question,
nor their grandchildren.
When the nations become really
pacified, emulation replacing selfish
competition, no man demanding or
wanting more than he really needs,
material problems will solve them
selves. But that's a long way off.
And always the question remains:
"What will be the color of the
meek that Inherit the earth—white,
black or yellow?”
You cannot have widespread peace
or meekness until that color ques
tion is settled.

We are doing well, even on the

than last year.
There seems to be some prosperity.
The twentieth century, carrying this
writer, and his portable type ma

And this 20 hour run costs much
more than it did to go, first cabin,
with all you could eat, from New
York to Liverpool on the steamship

However, if you get more, it does
not make so much difference if you
pay more. To those with old fash

The material and mechanical prob

Paris newspapers say “American
bankers are financing the return of
the crown prince to Germany.” Those
papers exaggerate the Insanity of the
American bankers. He finances queer
things, sometimes, but there 1b a
limit.
Paris papers, with Germany repud
iating and ceasing payment of re
parations, will soon have things more
serious and dangerous than “Ameri
can bankers” to think about.
What might have been a pretty

Some nice European bonds, of var

Learn from Germany’s once crown
prince, back on his landed estate at
Oels, that it pays to own a piece of
this solid earth.
His hope of a crown is gone, or
dim, and gone his military hat with
skull and cross bones on it. His
miilions, or billions of marks, if he
has them, will not buy enough to
feed the dachshund at his feet.
,?ut that land will feed him. Pota
toes, onions, carrots, grow as they
did before the war. ■ Cows give milk,
bees make honey, at the same old
rate.
Own a piece of the earth, take Vol

garden” and you may laugh at the
fall of the mark, or the rise of bol

your text: there is no real security,

Lawyers throw around their in
sults carelessly. Samuel Untermyer,
getting a separation for Mrs. Stokes,
wife of a rich New York man, says:
“My client would no more live with
him than with a kangaroo.”
The fact that a kangaroo can't sue
for libel does not justify such talk.
The kangaroo is a good husband.
As soon as the baby is born, and
tucked in the marsupial pouch, he
goes’ off and forgets it. What more
could you ask. And he never boxes
unless men teach him, or attack him.
Pick on the purple nosed baboon,
the wallowing wart hog or laughing
hyena, Mr. Untermyer, but don’t in
sult the blameless kangaroo. He’s
respectable.
Chicago, with a Jail for human
beings called a disgrace to civiliza
tion. plans a zoological garden, in
which animal prisoners will be made
to feel at home; no cages with iron
bars, instead, nice homelike pits.
Philanthropy says "shame,” but
there’s some doubt about it. The
animal prisoners have committed no
crime, and besides, they amuse the
children, and educate adults.
Crime at this particular moment,
knowing no geographical or other
limits, seems to need discouragement.
In Kansas City, bandits, masked,

At about the same hour. In Brook

bank messengers, take $46,000 drive
off through an overawed crowd.
How will It be when bandits drop

Nations that set the example kill

Glass hair and tangerine ears will be

The Canadian Pulp and Paper asso
ciation says that newsprint production
In six months of 1923 has set a record
Up to the end of June. Canadian mills
manufactured 619.802 tons of newsprint
paper, which represented a daily aver
age production of 3,973 tons, or about
470 tons more than the dally average
throughout 1922. This tremendous in
crease is due largely to the addition of
new machines to the productive capa
city of the mills but also reflects an
increased efficiency of operation and
the speeding up of existing machines.
