MIXED UP FIGURES.
No citizen of Nebraska need be alarmed over
the statement from the governor’s office that there
will be a deficit in the state treasury of a million
dollars at the close of 1923. The only trouble is
that the governor has become badly mixed up in
a lot of figures that he does not seeip to understand.
He began with the claim in his budget message
that the outgoing administration hari left a deficit
of more than two millions. This was based on the
assumption that everything was going out and
nothing coming in to the state treasury. That is
to say, no account was taken of the fact that the
bulk of taxes foa the previous year is never col
lected until along in the spring. Property taxes
for 1922 do not become delinquent until July, 1923,
and a great many people take advantage of the op
portunity for delay. In January the state treasury
is always low, and this year it was particularly so
because of the railroads delaying payment pending
suit.
The legislature inquired for more light on this
charge. The reply of the governor seems designed
rather to confuse than to clear up the exact finan
cial standing of the state. His itemized account in
cludes at least two duplications. For one tc.ing,'he
lists "bills payable'’ at $640,000 and then appar
ently includes the same item in another item esti
mating state expenses. The good roads figures!
which include both federal and state money, are
not analyzed or separated. The federal government
does not pay its share of road construction until
projects are completed. Accordingly, the state
has advanced large sums to contractors that will
later be repaid from the federal treasury. There
are millions involved in this road building, yet the
governor’s figures do not di$tinguish between fed
eral and state expenses.
The fiscal year ends June 30. Appropriations
sufficient to run every department of the 6tate until
that time were made by the last legislature. As
the taxes come in, these expenses will be paid off.
The budget system makes sure of that
The fact seems to be that Mr. Bryan is finding
the business of running Nebraska is not a simple
thing. It is possible that he is seeking for a soft
place to light, aiming to place the blame \n advance
on other shoulders. His muddled up figures of
state expenditures, past, present and future, do not
prove anything. Much better would it be to cease
this wrangling about what his political opponents
have done and get down to real constructive states
manship of the sort his friends expected.
KEEP SCHOOLS OUT OF POLITICS.
A bill pending before the house contains ele
ments of danger to the public schools of Omaha.
It is,H. R. 634 by George S. Collins, and proposes
that members of the school board shall be elected
from districts coterminous with the twelve wards
as they now exist.
One of the first reasons fdr opposing this meas
ure is the one that led to the adoption of the com
mission form of government. Seven commissioners
are elected by the voters at large, and these are
vested with control of the city's affairs. In like
manner, twelve members of the board of education
are chosen by the voters at large. The law which
set up the Independent School District of Omaha,
passed by the legislature of 1X71, and adopted by
the citizens of Omaha at the first re(erendum held
under the state government, made the boundaries
of the school district coterminous with those of the
city. It also provided for the independent board of
education to be chosen at large by all the voters
of the district.
Many attempts have been made in the last half
century to change the law, to provide for election
by districts. That these have not succeeded is the
best possible reason for continuing the plan. To
argue that a certain section of the city is without
representation on the board is not sound. The board
represents all sections of the city. Members are
so chosen, both at primary and at general elections. )
The present board of education has had some i
difficult problems to solve, and has proceeded as in
its judgment seemed better for all. Some sections
of the city still are short on school accommodations.
Their needs will be met iff time, but their relief will
not*come the sooner through breaking down a pro
vision of the law that has so much of reason to I
sustain it, and so little of sound argument against it.
Omaha’s public schools are safely free from poli
tics now; let us so keep them. Ward nominations
will surely lead to the injection of ward politics into
the school board.
•-«
AS A MATTER OF HEALTH.
, It is not only because it is wasteful that the
practice of returning goods ordered from the stores
is to be condemned. In many cases the public health
may be imperilled. In recognition of this fact
many cities have adopted ordinances forbidding the
return or exchange of certain articles as a sanitary
precaution.
A good many of the articles returned to shops
* an Omaha are never used again. For example, a
comb returned by a woman shopper after several
days’ trial was broken iinto pieces by the manager
of the department before her eye —an evidence of
the waste and of the possibility of spreading infec
tion if such a precaution were pot taken.
Chicago has a very thoroughgoing law limiting
the kind of goqdH that may be returned after use.
Articles or garmenfs that come in contact, with the
skin should not be subject to exchange. Who
would want a mattress that had been used for a
time in a home of which nothing wap known? The
possibility of spreading contagious diseases lies In
the too liberal use. of the return privilege.
It would he 1 good thing if the city council of
Omaha would go into conference with the retail
merchants on this subject. Perhaps the whole prob
lem could be settled equitably by the passage of an
ordinance. If .people knew that, it was against the
law to grant these favors, the merchants would
have some protection, and at the same time a costly
feature of merchandizing would he eliminated.
A new way of making rain has been worked out
over in Ohio, but rc requires a cloud to start on;
TAXING PUBLIC UTILITIES.
The success of Omaha's publicly owned utilities
is due to their having been administered in a thor
oughly businesslike manner. It is not for any man
in the Nebraska legislature to cast aspersions on
these institutions, of which Omaha rightly may be
proud. *
An undertone of unwarranted hostility to the
Metropolitan Utilities district of Omaha marked the
discussion of the municipal light bill in the lower
house. Though the question at issue was whether
the utilities board should be authorized to submit
a bond proposal to a vote of the people, a good
deal of the argument turned on other points.
Consider, for instance, the objection raised by
one representative, that public ownership deprives
the state of taxes. This line of thought, which has
been industriously sprrad by the Nebraska Power
company and other privately owned utilities, has
not much real weight. *
Certainly no one would consider taxing public
schools, postoffices, court houses, city halls or pub
lic parks. The thing is so preposterous as scarcely
to be entitled to discussion. It is true that the peo
Iple who are not served by a publicly owned institu
tion, whether a court house or a gas plant, receive
no direct benefit and even suffer a small loss through
the fact that if this had been privately owned it
would have paid a certain amount of taxes into
the state. These taxes, by the way, would first
have been * llected, in the form of rates for serv
ice, from the people of the district. The corporation
pays no taxes .that it has not first collected from
its customers.
THERE WILL BE OTHERS.
A dolorous story is sent out from Washington,
the result of a tabulation that shows how, year by
year, the young men who went into the American
army of 19171918 are being eliminated from the
roll of those who are liable to military duty under
the selective draft law. What the writer of that
yarn meant to say is that day by day those young
men are growing older. They are not being put out
of the race by disease or death, but simply by the
ticking of the clock.
Also, it is well to bear in mind that as fast as
one man comes to be too old to be drawn into mili
tary service, another steps into the list at the other
end. It is self perpetuating, and will be until race
suicide or something as dire checks the birth rate in
this country. We need not worry because the boys
who went to France are likely to be too old to go
again. If need comes, there will be others.
PALS.
Frequently a father and son can forget differ
ence in age and experience and assume the role of
real jials, but even though frequent, these instances
are still too rare. A son loves his father and often
considers him the one perfect specimen of man
hood whom he hopes to emulate, yet, while in his
presence will be .diffident and- tfhnatural. This
causes him to hesitate to ask advice, fearing he will
be misunderstood, so often he seeks counsel from
the wrong person.
Others have seen the necessity of breaking down
this barrier and, as a result, we hear of activities
staged in different parts of the state, where the
father enjoys the companionship of kis son for an
evening, and the son has the opportunity of be
coming acquainted with a father who is altogether
different from the stern parent he has previously
imagined him to be.
Such a banquet was given in honor of the fath
ers and sons at the Albion High school building by
the faculty recently, the domestic science class,
under the capable leadership of Miss May Finch,
domestic science teacher, serving refreshments. In
vitations were responded to with such readiness as
to gratify the originators of the idea and to verify
the belief that those for whom it was planned would
take joy from an evening together.
No better place could be found for such a gath
ering, which woul(J have a tendency to turn the
memories of the older men back to their own school
days, and thus all become schoolboys together. In
order to understand the temptations, hopes and
aspirations of the younger generation, the older
people must strive to be companionable to the
young, in order that they may guide them safely
past the many pitfalls that are always ready to re
ceive the young. *
Maybe the cold snap will clear the air of the flu
bug, that has been having such a lovely time In
and around Omaha far the last few weeks. If so,
tha populace will be the gainer.

i “From State and Nation”
—Editorials from Other Newspapers—
Nation of Eleemosynaries?
From ths Rocky Mountain News.
From a rather unusual quarter
conies a warning to the United Stales
to look carefully into the mouths of
its gift horses, despite the ancient
maxim not to do so, before taking
them over, for fear of their turning
out to be Trojan horses. The dan
gers attendant upon large scale giv
ing are stressed in the recent report
of the Carnegie corporation of New
j York, a trust created by Andrew C'ar
! negie. The accumulations of large
fortunes in the United States from
the "exploitation of a newr continent
and the unprecedented fortunes that
have resulted therefrom” have led <
to foundations whose combined en
dowments In New York alone is more ,
than half a billion dollars. The full
amount for the nation is not given, |
but it must be very large, when one '
cityHias so much in itself. There arc
Boston, Chicago, Philadelphia, Pitts
burgh, San Francisco and the univer
sities of east and west to be counted
in. •
The Carnegie foundation Is prob
ably the second largest in the coun
try. The assets of the New York cor
poration are given at $125,000,0011.
ihe Rockefeller foundations cap the
list. Th y are doing good, undoubt
edly. in different fields. Wonderful |
work in the medical field Is credited [
to the Rockefeller Institution, and
the Carn- gie foundation lias done a
great deal toward thp cause of scien :
title investigatlori/ond discovery.
And yet it is Ret down in the Came- :
Bio report, credited to Dr. Henry y. j
Pritchett, acting president, that "It Is
fair to assume there may be found a I
true lutictlon for the trust established
hy accumulated wtalth which may !
Justify- Its continued and indefinite
existence. This problem is now being
tried out in the United States on a
scale never before attempted in any
country of the world. Even in the
short experience gained in the last j
two decades. It Is clear that some of !
th" dangers pointed out hy Turgot
and others are not wholly imaginary. !
It may be fairly assumed that under
any organization which is effected for !
the administration of such trusts the I
n'tlrcote success will depend, in great
measure, upon the leadership of thopo
* with tile administration, and !
that the best the officers ran expect
from their trustees Is the inspiration
"f th_e!r association and their dis
criminating judgment upon the pro
posals that may be made. ... It 1r
not possible to make a grant of con
siderable size to any agency without
complex effects, some of which can
scarcely be anticipated. All giving. ’
like all accomplishment Intended for
human betterment, cut more than one
way. Oftentimes the by-products of
-giving, even of giving to a good cause,
result In more social toxins which
do enough harm to more than coun
teract the benefit that may come from
the original gift."
Further on in the report It Is ad
mitred that time, the great tester In
such things, has yet to make report
on the • fflcacy of the sums given the
last score nr thirty years toward (du
ration, scientific experiment, medicine
I and the general amelioration of man

out bothering about the too prominent
suspenders. Leather also lacked the
marvelous expansive qualities of the
rubberized fabric after a month of
wear. The feeling of tension on the
shoulder was distinctly A. W. O. L.
As a result suspenders became as
popular an article of sale as hay and
oats on Michigan boulevard. Natur
ally, the manufacturers grieved, and,
it Is suspected, conferred with the
1 style committee of the National Asso
ciation of Merchant Tailors along
these Hues;
''Y’see. now that normalcy's on the

and 76 cent garters won’t pay inore'n

something to save our dividends.”
Anyway, irrespective of what went
on behind the scenes, A. Lincoln
Stadler, chairman of the style com
mittee, has reported to the merchant
tailors that suspenders will be "abso
lutely necessary” this year. An an

“Good Farmers.”
From the I.oulsville Courier-Journal.
The French minister of agriculture,

from families that have tilled the soil
for more than 100 years, calls atten
tion to the steadfastness of French
tillers of the soil.

We Are Not Teaching Women AH
Wrong.
Fall* City, Nob.—To the Editor of
The Omaha Bee: It has taken sey
eral centuries of civilization to teach
the world that woman is the erjual
of her mate and entitled to the same
privileges; the right to a career of
her own choosing if circumstances
and her inclination make it necessary
and to be desired.
Wo deplore the social conditions ex
lsting in countries where women are
kept in seclusion; when their only
education pertains to the affairs of
women and the home.
If our coeducational schools were
abolished, would we not soon be liv
ing under the same regime?
It is true that the ultimate place
for woman Is the home, but suppose
she happens to be one of the many
who do not marry as soon as their
school dags are finished, if at all, and
who have no visible means of sup
port.
To enable her properly to cope with
the w/jrld she needs the broadening
Influences, and the calm self assur
ance that are to be ohtained only In
a modern coeducational institution.
The world that the business wo
man of today meets Is not a world
that has b en edurated In a girl's
finishing school and. in order to fight
a victorious battle she must have at
least a part of the training that her
competitors have had.
Suppose the dejir girls do forget
their mathematics and their Latin.
So do their brothers, with the rare
exception of a few who teach thos«
particular subjects, or use them di
rectly In their work. But the charac
ter formation and the ability to think
clearly that were the result of mas
terlng the physics and political
economy remain.
The measure of a woman Is th$
sons she rears, and If those sons are
brought up under the Influence of a
mother whose only education was
gained from the nnrrow seclusion of
a glrl’a finlsh'ng school, what manner
of men will they be’
When seeking advice as to whether
theirs shall be the career of ar'hlt«et
or lawyer, soldier or physician, would
you have their answer b<-. "My son.
I can advise you as to the relative
merits of china painting and litera
ture, but 1 know nothing' of the
things of which you speak.''
Would those sons be able to say,
