Disarmament at Genoa.
"If," lays M. Rakowki, president of the
Ukrainian soviet, speaking at Cenoa of diiarma.
ment, "it it barred out by doors, it will come in
by windows." And he spake the truth. Dis
armament is a question in which all the world it
interested. People are weary of fighting, for the
time, just as they have always been. It is the
i.atural reaction after a spree, the depression that
follows unduly stimulated exaltation. Genoa
may be the place from which Europe will jump
eff to an existence wherein gun-toting is un
t'.nown. However, the main purpose of the Genoa
conference will not be put aside by the considera
tion of armies. The meeting was called to dis
cuss economic questions, to devise ways and
means for meeting external as well as internal
obligations, and so to restore health to a con
tinent that is in sore distress. Russia must
rcalire this and conform to it. If disarmament is
tiiscusscd, it will be as a secondary considera
tion. Notice also should be taken of the fact
that it is Poland, Czecho-Slovakia, Roumania and
Jugo-Slavia that object to the Lloyd George pro
posal that pledges be given not to invade the
territory of another nation. These smaller na
tions desire to retain the privilege of invading
Hungary in event of an attempt to restore the
llapsburg dynasty to the throne. Self-determination
for them extends over their neigh
bors. As to communism, the issue and the way alike
are plain. If it is to become the new principle
of government, and Russia is destined to be the
great political leader of the world, it will come
in spite of armed force. No empire' or army has
ever yet succeeded in keeping back the wave of
reform. Christianity spread abroad over all the
world, in spite of the power of imperial Rome.
Islam impressed its rites and dogma on hun-
ArmAn rtt tvii11irtne .Heine tha sword to overcome
the sword in- its proselyting progress. So the
Soviets, if they are on the right track, eventually
will overcome and subdue all opponents.
Is the world ready to adopt the soviet pro
gram, and accept the experience of Russia as its
way of living? Heaven forbid The way out,
then, is pointed by Lloyd George, Barthou,
Schanzer and Jaspar, who are meeting unreason
with reason at Genoa, and striving to make clear
to a group of perverse advocates of an impossible
theory the fallacy of their policies. Rakowski,
Chitcherin and their associates may not yield, for
they do not seem to be ready to admit what is
known to all, that communism is a failure and
will be a failure, and so they will go home, stub
born in their refusal, to join with the rest of the
world. Yet the conference will have done good,
for it is bringing the smaller nations closer into
touch with the greater, and is making known the
obstacles to orderly progress. "
Money Safe With Uncle Sara.
Postmaster Btack reports an incident that
should be blazoned everywhere, A widow who
hat just received the proceeds of an insurance
policy on her husband's life has invested the
money in a postal certificate. . She read the ad
vertisement in The Bee, and realized that Uncle
Sam would be her safe banker. Resisting a plea
that she invest in oil stock, she purchased a sav
ings certificate for the full amount, and now
knows that she will get a return of 4H per cent,
compounded semi-annually, for the term specified
in the certificate. ' She may take pride in another
thought. Her deposit will assist the government
in meeting some of its pressing obligations, and
jnore than that, the money will go into business
and do its share of the work of the world. There
tore, she has not only helped herself by making
a sound investment, but she has helped the gov-,
crnment and through it all who live under the
government. The federal government has -not
undertaken to set up competition with the banks
of the country, but it, like the bankers, has real
ized that large sums of money have gone into
hiding because of owners lacking confidence in
the banks. The problem is to get these hoards
into service again. Offering the best possible se
curity and a profitable rate of interest, the United
States invites small investors to place their sav
ings where benefit may be obtained by all. Money
is safe with Uncle Sara; a sufficient increase in
postal savings certificates will eventually mean a
decrease in public tax rates, and above all, it will
mean idle funds at work.
Omaha and the Auditorium.
The proposal to issue bonds to provide funds
for the completion of the Omaha city auditorium
ought to engender a careful discussion of the
question. It is not necessary to recount the
history of the building, or how it came to be
w.vrt& by the city. What is important is that
m its present condition it has never fully served
its purpose. . Nor does it appear that the expendi
ture of $225,000 will bring to the condition of
what one looks for in such buildings nowaday.
Vet something should be done. Omaha must
hare an auditorium, whether it be one that now
stands, or another. The Bee did not especially
sympathize with the project advanced during the
war to sell the present structure and site and
proceed to the erection of another more expensive
one farther west. Just now, and probably for
several years to come, the present building at
lent h some admit- of location, Repiir
art petded, and ll finishing ctf of th structure,
according to riin pUns, or alter others that
are iuggrteJ by experience, may sent t fio
vide a building where b g public meetings pity
be held. The time iU tome, ho ever, when ihe
f resent Auditorium will I holly inadequate fr
the city's uses. Whether it it win to anticipate
that time, or if it Is better to put more money
into the ruining building it the point to be
settled. The whole cue.iion should M connd
ertd from all poi"1 iew '" v6,e" ho'',
be well informed, in order that they may know
what is being done.
Municipal Government nd Finance,
Press ditpatchc t have carried newt during the
week of the untoward plight of (wo industrial
communities, each forced to luepend certain vital
rovcrnmentat activities for Utk cf fund,
Yoimgitown, O., a center of Heel industry, has
noted the dismissal of the local firemen and ro
licemen, became the funds for paying them are
exhausted. Sidney, Nova Scotia, now announces
that its treasury is empty, and that the part of
the government that runt on salaries will be tut-
pended until June, when relief may be had.
Without knowledge at to why these communl
ties are reduced to the confessed condition of
poverty, comment must be held to the obvious
conclusion that each illustrates a lack of business
judgment. Fundi apportioned to tupport the
public tervice have been spent too rapidly, if
not too liberally, and distress is the result In
this a municipality has no advantage over an in
dividual; in fact, the truth is the other way
around, for an individual can retrench with lets
inconvenience to himself and others than can a
city or a state. Another fine lesson is involved, and
one that Nebraskans are getting benefit from,
whether they realize it or not. That is the ap
plication of the budget system.
Under the new law in this slate, appropria
tions are made on definite calculations of the
needs of the institution or purpose to be pro
vided for. Money is expended on quarterly ap
portionments, -and each disbursing agency is re
quired to keep well within the quarter's allot
ment, that a margin of safety may always be
maintained. Therefore, instead of the familiar
deficiency appropriation confronting the next leg
islature, the treasury will be able to report a
balance on hand to the extent of the reserve in
each fund. This welcome change is but one of
the benefits that has come from the budget plan,
which is a part of the "code" system so gen
erously and gratuitously abused by the demo
crats, who hope to prejudice the people against
it by persistent misrepresentations.
New England and the West.
When the Associated Industries of Massachu
setts approved the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence
waterways project the other day, it did not con
fine itself to New England's special interest, the
incidental development of cheap hydro-electric
power, The executive committee's report in
cluded a very complete statement of the ad
vantages of the waterway to all parts of the coun
try, which concluded:
We express the hone that oublic opinion in
New England will view this matter in the
broad spirit of national interest, to which
we believe it to be entitled, and we sug
. gest that the Associated Industries may well
" undertake to assist in creating here in Massa
; chusetts a realization of the national advan-
tages which may be expected to result from
the development of the St. Lawrence river.
There speaks the voice of intelligent patriot
ism, devoid of the narrow provincialism which
sets up local self-interests against the general
welfare. That is the spirit which will carry the
St. Xawrence project to success and which, in
doing that, will give new ties of mutual respect
and good will between New England and the
west.'
Do Your Own Applauding.
Opera singers in New York have suffered
from the operations of a claque which gave ap
plause for pay and. awarded hisses free if no
money was forthcoming. Walter Damrosch,
conductor of the New York Symphony orches
tra, has overturned this apple cart of extortion
in self-defense, announcing that it threatened to
invade the concert halls.
: Some of the orchestra conductors who have
appeared there this season have employed the
claque, it appears, to overcome the dampening
effect of the emotional restraint . of American
audiences. Opera managers explain that ap
plause is the breath of life to their temperamental
artists, and the louder the appreciation the better
the performance the singer will give.
The casual and short-lived applause of our
cpera goers gives so much of an excuse. And yet
in other lands where appreciation is more freely
expressed than here, the claque had its origin.
The truth is that the practice is simple graft,
preying on the weaknesses of a highly emotional
class. If it is not rooted out, soon people will
fear to applaud at all unless they be thought on
the claque payroll. And yet it is to be wished
that audiences would be a little more spend
thrift of their plaudits.
An increase of 43 percent in the price of food
is reported for Ihe 9-year period, March IS, 1913,
to the corresponding date in 1922. Potatoes have
risen more than any other product, 107 per cent,
ham has gone lip 91 per' cent, hens 77 per cent,
flour 61 "per cent, milk 46 per cent, steak 43 per
cent, eggs and sugar 20 per cent and butter and
lard 11 per cent. Potatoes and poultry, judged
on this scale, look like good bets for the farmer.
