VOICES PLEA FOR ECONOMY Cllef Executive of Nation Points With Caution to After-War Effects Aid Demanded for Heroes of World Conflict. Washington, D. O., April 1'J. In his message to congress, President War len (!. Harding said In purt : MKMHHllS Ol' TUB CONOUKSS-Vou luivo boon called in extruoulliuiry hossIoii to kIvo your coiiHlilcrtition to national problems fur too incasing to fou long no Klcctvd. Wp fact) our tusks of IvKlMiillon nnd administration umld coihIUiuiih as thlllcult uh our KovoruiiR'tit Iiiih ever ton tentplatcd. Under our political Hymom tli people of tho United HtateH have I'harKeil the new c.onineus and tho new nil mliilstrntion with tho solutlon-the rc.ul-JiiHtini-ntK, rccoiiBtruetloii uml reHtoratlon wh.eh must follow In tho wake of wur It may ho rcRrnttcd thut v were ho Illy prepared for war's aftermath, no Utile made ready to return to the u:i) of peace, but we are not to bo dlHcouraKod. liiueci, we luunt be the muro (Irmly le solvud to undertake our work with IiIkIi hope, nnd Invite evory factor hi our citi zenship to Join In tho effort to (hid our noniiiil, onward way nguiii. The Anicilcaii people Imvo appraised, tho situation, nnd with that tolerance nnd patience which ro with tmdeistanillim they will rivo to us the Inlluence or de 111 rate public opinion which ultimately becomes tho edict of any popular Kovern tnetit. They nio ineatiuilni; some of tho ntern necesnltleH. and will Join in the Kivo uml take which Is tho onbcntlnl to (Inn re establishment. Home Problems First. First In mind must bo tho solution of our problems at home, even though Home phases jf them are lnscparatcbly linked with our forclKn relatloiiR. Tho surest procedure In every government Is to put Its own house In order. I Know of no more preislnj; problem at home than to restrict, our nntlnnnl ex penditures within tho limits of our na tional Income, and at the same time measurably lift tho burdens of war taxa tion from the shoulders of the American pooplo. Our current expenditures nro running nt tho rato of npprox'matoly $5,000,000,000 a year, and tho burden Is unbearable There arc two agencies to be employed In correction: One Is rluld resistance In nporoprlntlon and tho other Is the utmost economy In administration, Lot us have both. Must Readjust Taxes. The first substantial relief from the tax burden must como for tho present from tho readjustment of Internul taxes nnd tho revision or repeal of those taxes which have become unproductive and nro so nrtlllclal and burdensome ns to defeat their own purpose. A prompt and thorouKhcolnR revision of the tnternnl Ux laws, made with duo regard to tho p4Rectlon of the revenues, Is In my Judgment a requisite to the revival of business activity In this coun try. Tho urgency for an Instant tariff en actment, emergency In chnracter nnd un derstood by our people that It Is for the emerKency only, cannot bo too much em phasized. I bellcvo In tho protection of American Industry, nnd It Is our purpose to prosper America first, Tho maturer revision of our tariff laws Fhnuld he based on the policy of proteu tlon, resisting that selfishness which turns to greed, but ever concerned with that productivity at homo which Is tho source of all abiding good fortune. A very Important matter Is the estab lishment of tbo government's business on a business basis. Thero can bo no complete correction, of tho high living cost until government cost Is notably reduced. Lot mo most heartily commend tho ennct mont of legislation providing for the na tional budnej syBtem. One condition In tho business world may well recelvo your Inrjdlry. Deflation hns been In progress, but has failed to roach tho mark whero It can bo proclaimed to the great mass of consumers. r.educcil cost of basic production has been locordcd, but high cost of living has not yielded In like proportion. I have asked the federal trade commlsJ slon for n report of Its observations nnd It attributes, In tho main, the failure to adjust consumers' cost to basic production costs to tho exchange of Information by "open-prlco associations," which operate evidently within tho law, to the very groat advantago of tholr members and equal disadvantage to tho consuming public. Wants Helpful Probe. Without tho spirit of hostility or haste In accusation of profiteering, aomo suit able Inquiry by congrens might speed tho prlco readjustment to normal relationship, with he fulness to both producer and consumer A moasurlng rod of fair prices will satisfy tho country nnd glvo ub ii business revival to end all depression and unemployment. The great Interest of both producer nnd consumer Indeed, nil Industrial and com mercial life, from agriculture to finance In tho problems of transportation will find Its rellex In your concern to aid re-estnb-llshment, to restore efficiency, nnd bring transportation cost Into a helplul relation ship rather than contlnua It as u hind rance to resumed activities. On tho subject of railroads tho Presi dent sold In part. Efficient operation "at a cost within that which the trao will bear. . . . rtallway rates and costs of operation must bo ro duccd." . . . "Tho remaining obstacles which are tho herltance of capitalistic ex ploitation must bo removed and labor must Join managejnent In undorstandng thnt the public which pays Is tho public to bo served and simple Justlco Is tho right and will continue to bo tho right of all the people." Roads Trade Arteries. Tho highways aro not only feeders to the railroads and afford relief from their local burdens; they aro actually Milton Lover of Liberty. Milton was no democrat; equality and fraternity were not his trade, though liberty was his passion. Lib erty ho defended against tho tyranny of ihe mob, us of thu king, tie pre ferred u republic to it monarchy, since ho thought It less likely to Interfere with tho Independence of the prlate citizen. Political liberty, liberty of worship and belief, freedom of tho press, freedom of divorce, he nsserted them all In turn with unsurpassed eloquence. "Tho Connecticut Witts." line of motor traffic In interstate com merce, I t ne laws Kovcrnlnf? federal aid should ho amended nnd strengthened, i Tho federal agency of administration ' should ho elevated to tho Importance nnd vested with authority comparable to tho work before It. Linked with rail and highway Is the problem of water transportation Inland, cnnstwlse nnd transoceanic. Dig Merchant Marine. tt Is not necessary to .say It to con gress, but I have thought this to bo a fitting occasion to give notice that the t'nltcil States menus to establish ami tunlntnln a great merchant marine. This republle can never realize Its righteous uspliatlons In commerce, can ncer ho worthy tho traditions of tho early days of the expanding republic until the million of tons of shipping which we now posse are cii-iirdlhntcd with our Inland transportation and our shipping has government encourage ment, not government operation, In earrylng ohr cargoes under our ling, over regularly operated routes, to ev ery market In the world ngrcvablu to American exchanges. Urges U. S. Air Laws. It has become a pressing duty of the federal government to provide for tbe regulation of air navigation, other wine Independent and conflicting legis lation will bo enacted by the various states which will hamper tho develop ment of aviation. I recommend the enactment of legis lation establishing a bureau of uero miutjcn In the Navy department to cen tralize tho control of naval activities In aeronautics, and removing tho re striction on the personnel detailed to avia tion hi thu navy. Our very Immediate concern Is for the crippled soldiers and those deeply needing tho helping h.iud of govern ment. Conscious, of tho generous In tent of congress, and tho public con cern for the crippled and dependant, t Invited tho services of n volunteer committee to Inquire into the admin hitratlou of tho bureau of war risk Insurance, the federal board for voca tional training anil other ngencles of government In caring for tho ex-sol-dlers, sailors nnd marines of tho World war. It Is needless to mil your attention to tho unfinished business Inherited ftom tho preceding congress. Tho appropriation bills for army and navy v,U have your early consideration. Neither branch of tho government can bo unmindful of thu call for i educed ex potulltuiu fo rtheso departments of our national defense. The government Is In accord with tho wish to eliminate tho bur dens of heavy armament. The Unitud States ever will bo In harmony with such a movement towurd tho higher attain ments of peace. . Hut wo shall not entirely discard con tingencies for defense until there Is re moved tho need to defend. We aro ready to co-operato with other nations to ap proximate disarmament, but merest pru dence forbids that wo disarm alouo. Spurns Superauthorlty. Tho nlm to associate nations to prevent war, preserve peace and promote civiliza tion our people most cordially npplauded. Wo yearned for this now instrument of Justice, but we can have no part in a committal to any agency of force In un known contingencies; wo can recognlzo no superauthorlty. Manifestly the highest purporo of tho League of Nations was defeated In Unk ing1 It with tho treaty of peace and making -It tho enforcing ngency of tho victors of tho war. International association for permanent peace must bo conceived solely as an Instrumentality of Justlco, unasso elated with the passions of yosterday, and not bo constituted as to attempt thu dual functions of a political Instrument of the conquerors and of an agency of peaco. There can bo no prosperity .for tho fun damental purposes sought to bo achieved by any such association so long as It Is un organ of any particular treaty or com mitted to the attainment of tho special alms of any nation or group of nations. It would be unwise to undertake to malto a statement of futuro policy with respect to FJuropenn affairs In such a declaration of a state of penco. in cor recting the falluro of tho oxecutlvo, In negotiating the most important treaty In tho history of tho nation, to recog nize tho constitutional powers or tho senate wo would go to tho other ex treme, equally objectlonnblo, If congress or tho bctiato should assumo the func tion of the executive Our highest duty Is tho preservation of tho constitutional powers of each, and tho promotion of tho spirit of co-opuiatlun so obseuUul to our common welfare. Situation Is Involved. It would bo Idle to declare for sepa rato treaties of peace with tho central powers on tho assumption that thesu nlono would bo adequate, because tho situation Is so Involved thnt our peace engagements cannot Ignore tho old wuild relationship and thu HcttleinentH ulrcady effected, nor Is it desirable to do to In preserving our own rights and contracting our futuro rolntlonhlps. Neither congress nor the people needs my ussuranco that a request to nego tiate needed tteatlcs of peace would bo as superfluous and unnecessary ai It Is technically Ineffective, uud 1 know in my own heart there Is none who would wish to embnrass tho executive. In tho performance of' his duty when we aro all ho eager to turn disappointment and delay into gratifying accomplishment. Wants Senate Advice, In an ull-lmpelllng vslsh to do the most nnd best for our own public and maintain Its high place among nations, and at tho sama tlmu make the fullest offering of Justice to them, I shall In vito lu the most practical way tuo ad vice of tho benate, after acquainting It with all the conditions to bu met ami obligations to bo discharged, along with our own rights to bo biifeguarded. Pru dence in making thu program ml cunll umit co-operation in making It effective cannot lead us far astray. Wo can render no effective services to humanity until wu prove anew our own capacity for co-opeiatlon in tho co-ordination of powers contemplated In tho Conbtltutlon, and no covenunts which Ig noro our associations in tho war can bu made for tho future. No helpful society of nations can bo founded on Justice nnd committed to peace until tho covenants re-establish-Ing peace are sealed by tho nations which were at wur. To such accomplishment to tho complete ro-cstabllshmont of peaco and Its contracted relationships, to tho realization of our Inspirations for nations assoclatoJ for world helpfulness without world government for world stability on which humanity's hopes are founded, we shall address ourselves, fully mindful of tho high prlvllego and the paramount dutj of tho United States In this critical period of tho world.

Under the Circumstances, However, It Will De Understood, Not Intended for Publication. Cleveluntl wiih not n master of M'holuily eloquence, like Wilson, or of vigorous eplgiiiui, like Itoosuvelt; yet on occasion lie could be Uncut and on occasion witty. Of the two anecdotes that follow the first shows tils llueiicy, the second his wit. Mr. .lctTcrson Winter, namesake ol the famous actor, Joseph .IcITcrsou, who was ('Icu'luinl's Intimate friend anil fellow niiglcr, tolls tho first story , Oray (initios, the (.'lev eland home, I and Crow's nest, the home of the .lef for.Mms, were not far apart. While Mr. Winter was visiting at Crow's Nest the men wont llshlug. Toward .sundown, he says, we went from the buss grounds whore we had heen llshlug to a little lake hidden lu woods, owned by .Jefferson and stocked by him with trout. Thero wc were Joined by .Toliu O. Carlisle, Cleve land's secretary of the treasury; tall, lank, palo-fiu-ed, saturnine, garbed In iJlucU, wearing a "plug hat" and en ergetically chewing tobacco tho very picture of an old-time country lawyer. Cleveland and .lofferson put out upon the lake lu a small boat, while Mr. Carlisle ami I remained on the bank. Cleveland, ns Is well known, was an Immense hulk of a man a sort of colossal Cap'n Cuttle, he appeared to me. He and .lofferson .stood In thu boat, almost hack to back, and while both were casting at the same mo ment they came violently Into col lision, stern on. The result was that .lofTerson plunged overboard on ono side, and Cleveland, making a vain of lort to seize and save him, lost his own bnliince and toppled over on thu oilier. I have heard some strikingly riljrlnul, graphic anil vigorous lan guage (lrst and last; but I have never heard anything to equal the impromp tu dialogue between those two really affectionate cronies, clinging to omo site sides of tho half-submerged flat bout. Carlisle observed the nquatlc disas ter with exemplary calm and listened to the Interlocution with attentive ami manifest admiration. Then he turned h twinkling eye upon me and blandly remarked: "Most eloquent, but wholly Idlel" So much for Cleveland's fluency; now for his wit. Not eloquent, but by no means idle, was Cleveland's brief nnswer to a telegram that he re ceived while visiting ut Crow's Nest during the light for the Democratic nomination In 1S02. It was from a senntor, himself nu nsplrant for the presidency, who had thu political audacity, not to speak of personal Impertinence, to tele graph to tbe leading candidate: "Tho time has now come for you, In the In terest of your party, to withdraw from this contest." Cleveland showed the message to his host. "What answer shall you make?" Jef ferson asked. Without a word Cleveland took the telegraph blank, turned It over and wrote tho reply on the back and be fore giving It to thu waiting messenger banded It again to JclTcrson. This was his message: "Somebody has been taking an un pardonable liberty with your name. . Cleveluntl." It was the neatest of rebukes, and the most Impossible to resent. Youth's Companion. No Cherries Without Birds. Of course, there wouldn't be any cherries If there wore no song birds. The bird nuts the cherries on the tree, why shouldn't he eat bis own cherry? The farmer only holds n second mort gage on thnt cherry. He may think otherwise and kill the bird; then the bird won't get the cherry and neither will the fanner. Thu worm will get the cherry; the aphis, the slug, the nil to, the blight, will get the cherry, and the farmer's second niorignge will, according to John Burroughs, shrink to limbing. In other words, were the millions of bushels of bugs which the song birds connime for food lu one season released, the forests and cro would be presently wiped out, nnd with them the life of the people.
