Our opinion of France is that she

the carpetbagger role in the Ruhr
district.
:o:
Jessie James and his band of buc
caneers took money, all right, but
they didn't force you to fill out in

A Kansas court has held that

The further advance of French
troops into German territory is de
scribed by the government as a fis
cal move. What, then, is the Ruhr
occupation-1 a pleasure excursion?
. :o:
"Fatal," says a professor, "is not a
comparative adjective." Isn't it? Is
not the position of dictators or Rus
sia several times more fatal than
that of the king of England or presi
dent of the United States? One cer
tainly is killed a lot oftener.

YOUR JUDGMENT
An old man of great historic in
terest Thomas ; W. Shaw dies- at
91. victim of bronchitis, in a hospi-
,'tal at London, Canada. The telegraph
I wires describe him as the last sur
jvivor of the famous Light Brigade
which charged the Russian cannon
'at Balaklava in 1854 during the
Crimean war.
1 As a child you probably recited
Tennyson's poem which immortaliz
ierl the Lisht Brigade. If it hadn't
been for that poem, few of us would
he charge of the
Light Brigade had to do with a bat
tie or an electric light bill. The poem
was bigger than the Light Brigade
Most important part of the charge
by the "valiant 600" was that they
wiliinirlv went to almost certain
- - - o -m?
death knowing that their orders had
been stnoidly balled up. As Tenny
son put it:
"Forward, the Light Brigade!
Was there a man dismayed?
Not. though the soldier knew
Some one had blundered:
Theirs not to make a reply.
Theirs not to reason why.
Theirs but to do and die:
Into the Valley of Death
Rode the Six Hundred."
Hoo-rav-v-v! Oh. that poem of
Tennyson's was great propaganda
for the war' gold. Many a young man
has rushed gladly to embrace death in
battle deluded by the false pilosity
of this poem. We're gettiug a little
wiser now, and inclined to ask a few
questions before carrying out orders,
knowing hokum when we see it.
Entirely too much fuss has been
made about being dutiful and "obey
ing orders" has the least glimmer of
personal intelligence and judgment.
The individual has certain rights,
as well as duties, and the propa
ganda that educates us to obey with
out question is an inheritance from
imperialism. It's the same sort of
stuff that, was drummed into slaves
by their masters.
The private has a right to question
his military superior.
The citizen has a right to ques
tion the edicts of his small group of
representatives who constitute the
government.
The employe has a right to ques
tion his employer. Most employers
admit this and gladly welcome sug
gestions. We are free agents, not slaves, de
spite the propaganda to the contrary
that has been since imperialism be
gan to fight for existence.
:o:
TIME TO CLEAN UP
This is the time of all times for
Plattsmouth to commence her spring
cleaning.
Spring is here nearly here, at
any rate. There Is only a remote
probability that we will have any
more cold weather.
Start the job early, and the results
achieved will be far greater than
ever before.
Get rid of all that accumulated
rubbish in the back yard. Burn it up,
or have It carted away, and make
your premises, both front and back,
look clean and attractive.
If we can give Plattsmouth a thor
ough cleaning this month it will do
much towards the elimination of all
forms of sickness during the sum
mer months.
Destroy the places where flies or
mosquitoes are' likely to breed, and
by so doing you will cut off the life
of millions of these insect pests.
The municipal sanitary depart
ment stands ready and willing to co
operate to the limit of its resources.
Don't wait, however, until the sani
tary officer finds it necessary to pay
you a visit and tell you what to do.
It would be well for Mayor John
son to Issue a proclamation settina
apart a period of at least ten days
in which to give Plattsmouth a thor
ough house, cleaning. We boast of
hiving one of the cleanest, and most
attractive cities in, the country, Why
not make it a reality?

PRICES SHAVED
On the first of February, the cost
Of living Of the avern AmiMn
wage earner's family was 53 per cent
higher than in July, 1914. Putting
it another way, it cost $1.58 to buy
what could be bought for $1 ju3t be
fore the war started.
The figure was $2.94 when retail
prices reached their peak in 1920.
Compared with a year ago, cost of
living is down a trifle. Not so loud
on the echo.
:o:
OUR WAR RECORD
lne united States has been in 104
wars since the year 1775, or an av
erage of. one war every year and a
half. Your attention is cafled to this
by Secretary of War Weeks.
In .speaking broadly, most of. our
104 conflicts were scraps with the
Indians. They seem, small and. trivial
affairs to u but to our ancestors
those Iudian campaigns were big and
serious matters. . Time changes the
"Wf"'" national, also Individual,
LITTLE GRAINS OR SAND .
Has science at last discovered
new principle for bringing the
weather under human control? The
results of the experiments lately car
ried on by the United States army
air service at. McCook field, near
Dayton, Ohio, suggest extraordinary
possibilities in man's invasion of
what was once nature's exclusive do
main.
The experimenters actually brb
down an artificial shower of rain on
the heads of the astonished specta
tors. To effect this airplanes ascend
ed into the upper strata of the at
mosphere and dropped electrically
charged grains of sand upon the
clouds. Almost immediately the
clouds dissolved and precipitated
their moisture in the form of a ligl
shower of rain. In another case the
experiment resulted in a flurry of
snow.
While the demonstration is a long
way yet from establishing control
of the weather, it may have landed
science on the threshold of another
stupendous discovery. Of course, pre
cipitating rain with electrified sand
scattered from soaring airplanes . is
not the same as producing rain in the
Peruvian deserts or preventing the
assembling of a typhoon in the China
sea.
But it. gives us a start. If men
with airplanes can disperse San
Francisco or London fogs, if they can
persuade recalcitrant passings clouds
to part with their moisture, science
has placed another mighty economi
cal weapon in human hands.
What future achievements will
spring from this auspicious start in
bringing the weather under subjec
tion scientists know better than
farmers. From Faraday's modest dis
covery of the induced electric current
to the radiograpji broadcasting
speech around the globe the advance
is no greater than from an army air
plane expert serving weather a la
carte from a central station.
Then for our children we may re
model the old nuxsery rhyme to read:
Little drops of water
Fall upon the land, '
When upon the clouds we spray
Little grains of sand.
:o: , ..
GERMAN PURCHASES
A check up shows that Germany
bought about 316 million dollars
worth of goods from us in 1922, com
pared with 372 millions in 1921.
Measured in money, this is a falling
off. Due to price advances in the
year. There also was a drop in the
physical quantity of our exports to
Germany. .
The chief things we have been
selling Germany -are grain, cotton,
copper and rubricating oil.
Among our export customers.
United Kingdom ranks first, Canada
second, Germany third, Japan fourth.
Interesting angle. Our exports to
Germany in 1922 averaged less than
?3 for every American.
: o:
NORMALCY DEFINED
Just what is "normalcy?" It can
not be defined. For we do things on
a bigger scale nationally each year.
so what is normal one year. is below
the next.
A banner pre-war year for busi
ness was 1913. Yet, in making com
parisons, we cannot take production
figures of that year as normal, since
population has increased and living
standards have changed. Normalcy is
when every one willing to work has a
steady job, and: income is sufficient
ahead of living costs to permit the
laying away of something for a rainy
day.
:o:
THAT SELFISH CHARGE
American government and Ameri
can private individuals have contri
buted 850 million dollars to Euro
pean relief since the last shot of the
world war was -fired. So announces
James W. Rosenburg, official of one
of the relief organizations.
And still Europe thinks we're sel
fish because we do not cancel what
she owes us. Charity beats cancella
tion for both sides. One thing about
charity, it doesn't release funds for
European arming to the teeth.
:o:
The. old fashioned mother thought
dancing and card playing dangerous
pastimes i only rough people did
such things when she was a girl
and "worldliness" only anotner. word
for wickedness. According to her con
ception of education, one should
learn, not think; and above all. one
must not inquire. The history of the
human, race, as it lay behind oae, was
already explained; - and so was its
destiny, which lay before. The mind
