Fluctuations became vey rapid on

The first break today earried the

141,000 Brides, Poor
Lamb.
Cold and Jajtan's Yen.
Business Rules? Of
Course.
Queer Mrs. Ferguson.
By ARTHUR BRISBANE.
v-'
Tonight is to be the great night
of the “Reformed Adventists.” In
Hollywood, Mrs. Rowen expects to
lead the few faithful up to heaven.
In Long Island, on the east side of
the continent, a stout little man,
33 year’s old, named Reidt, calling
himself “the prophet of doom,” will
lead his collection of survivors up
to heaven, if all goes as planned.
The program is hard on the ma
jority. Only 144,000 are to be
saved to go up in a cloud. All the
test of the ifi hundred million hu
mans, black, white, brown and yel
low on this earth will be destroyed.
That, is what you might call dis
crimination.
The 144,000 destined to be saved
are called "brides of the lamb.”
Why a lamh should want even
one bride, to say nothing of 144,
000, is a puzzling feature of^this
strange world ending. But very
probably the world won’t end, and
the 144,000 brides will have to
postpone meeting/ the lamb for
some time.
The pitiful feature of the whole
anachronistic performance is the
terror of Prophet Reidt’s four little
children, called followers of the
prophet. They believe the world
really will end, and they don’t want
to go up in a clomt
Mrs. Reidt, wife of the prophet
of doom, bears up well. Prophets’
wives don’t always take prophecies
seriously.
Japan is hipping gold to the
United States in advance, the price
of the yen, now 23 per cent below
par. The Japanese are able, excel
ing in industry inventiveness, i
adaptation, rapacity for hard work.
Lack of gold would not destroy in-!
ternational confidence in the yen.
But such lack of confidence
might come from the activity of
Japan’s flying machine factories.
A nation turning out 500 fight-:
ing flying machines a month has I
some ambitious plan in mind.
Failure to realize the plan would !
be disastrous to the yen, and some
other things in Japan.
The western mind does not un
derstand Japanese thought or prej
udices. This was illustrated in
Tokio recently when an art loan
exhibit included Rodin’s statue.
"The Kiss.” The police interfered, j
not hecause the figures in the statue |
are naked, for nudity is not objec-!
tionable in Japan where it has long;
been customary for men and wo-;
men completely naked to bathe in |
tubs on the sidewalks.
The Japanese do not kiss and
consider that a very objectionable ’
custom.
The police compromised finally ‘
ny puiuuK » miccii
statue. permitting only those of suf
ficient age and education to look
at it.
In this country we should put a
screen around the lady taking her
bath in a little tub on the sidewalk,
and lot the Rodin statue stand ex
posed in any public park.
Norman Hapgood, writing from^'
Washington, says “business now
rules the nation.” Why, certainly!
This is a business nation; our pow
erful interests are business inter
ests. Every country is ruled by
its principal “interests.”
Religion rules Thibet through
the grand llama, and the tens of
thousands of Thibetian monks.
Royalty, nobility—and the cler
gy ruled France in old days before
the revolution. Now the bour
geoisie French name for business
—rules France.
France has learned some hard
lessons, and the bourgeoisie call*
in militarism, as a big brother, t<>
help watch and ward while business
goes on. That's simply imitating
the western American bank, where
you may see standing quietly in a
corner of the lobhy a man with *
repeating rifle, waiting for any hold
up crowd.
In a grocery you find a grocer
in command, in a hardware «hop
it's a hardware man. In a village
of beavers, it is some beaver that
rules.
In this country of business, of
course, business rules.
Mrs. Ferugson. governor of the
great state of Texas, justifies the
opinion of some men that women
in office “are queer.”
Mrs. Ferguson wants to stimulafe
cotton production in Texas. Mas
culine governors have had the same
idea. Mrs. Ferguson offers priz
for the best five-acre plot of co -
lon grown in any convict camp.
She selects the convict camp be
cause it can be controlled and ac
curate returns obtained.
The “queerness” of the lady lie«
in this. She offers cash rewards
for superior cotton production and
will pay the rewards out of her
own salary. Many men in office
will testify that such conduct is ex
tremely queer, and also sets a bad
precedent.
It is suggested that income tax
payers be allowed to deduct from
taxable income what they have to
pay doctors.
If a man makes his income by
using machinery he is allowed to
deduct from the income whatever
he has to spend to keep the ma
chinery in order.
The machinery used by a lawyer,
merchant or mechanic is his own
body and brain. If he has to spend
money to keep that machinery in
order and fit to earn revenue, of
course he should be allowed to
chargp that to “repairs,” and de
duct it from income tax. And also
he -hould be allowed to deduct for
each year of wear and tear, a fair
charge for depletion.
A coal mine owner charges off
“depletion"’ l>ecause his mine is
worth less every year.
What about the man whose mine
is his brain? That also is worth
less each year.
