If he does, it will certainly be a f liver. :o: Kvcn after the meek have inherit ed the earth some blustering trust ollieial will come around and collect the rent. At last there are some slight signs that Germany is coming to her sense. Says the Taglische Rund schau of Berlin 'What we need is a despot to compel the nation to work. If we are unable to install him, our cue mies will send him That is the plain, simple truth.

Haven't they heard the ver dict of that Johns Hopkins professor, that locusts are good to eat, and taste like .shrimp? Why don't they spread the news and supply the New York market with locusts? Or why doesn't some enterprising canner put them up and offer them as "Long Island Shrimp?" useful and profitable undertaking of his whole life. A What the t'ior man nation needs Is to do likewise. To make the Allies some small measure of recompense for the evil lone them, to restore their own country to something of its former prosperity and comfort and to make their own" future tolerable and re spectable, the Germans must stop Congress will soon have to decide whining, stop talking of revenge, what percentage, of alcohol makes a stop their eternal preparations for drink intoxicating.

I J committee" the new boss of the Houseare playing politics with ap propriations. This committee will make heavy cuts, without regard for the needs, and then let the sen ate increase the amounts given, or put them in special bills to come later. Members of the "steering committee" seem to think it will sound well, in the coming campaign, to say that they reduced the esti-j mates of the democratic administra tion "one billion dollars." That would help, republican candidates for the House in their campaigns. they argue. But the democratic leaders will not let them succeed in any such nolitical trickery. House leaders will make it plain to the! public what is going on. r During the debate in the House on the shipping board appropria tion Representatives Moore of Penn sylvania and Britten of Illinois closely questioned - Representative Good of Iowa, chairman of the ap propriations" committee, about the total appropriated for shipping. Messrs. Moore, Britten and Good are leading republicans, 7mt the rep resentatives from Pennsylvania and Illinois were suspicious cf the gen tleman from Iowa. It was broivght out that the ship ping board was about to be deprived of monev needed to carry out its nlans for a merchant marine. Mr. Good admitted that there is a probability this provision for the shiDDing board may fall, short of I ML t!SllSI i p 1 1 i if lih 1 I i i !!!

Or if that looks like too much trouble, why not use bamboo for building mater ial, as the Japanese do, so that a little shaking won't do any harm. :o: Have you heard anything about a new engine and better equipment for the local light plant. .We may have another storm within a few days, and the result will be another total eclipse over the city of Platts mouth, only.

Arbitrary reduction of appropria tions ordered by the standpat "steer ing committee" of the House has not . taken well with the country and republican leaders are begin ning to hear from it. It is evident that there is a deep sentiment and desire in the . hearts of the people for honest, justifiable economy, but not for wilfull, deliberate, senseless reductions that cripple the govern ment and threaten the comforts and welfare of returning soldiers. If the House program for the avia tion service of the Army and the Tavy goes through the United Sfates will become a third-rate na tion in aircraft and airmen. The action of the House in this instance is proving a flare-back. The roar from the press of the nation has caused republican senators to rush into print with promises to recon struct provisions framed by the House. . It is charged by democrats that the republicans of the House, fol- carry out the program Of the ad ministration. "I am greatly interested in see ing this bilf carry enough money to enable the shipping board to bring to successful conclusion its desires for a well-balanced fleet of cargo and nassensrer carriers." said Mr. Britten. :o: '- Dvsnensia is America's curse.
