CURRENT
COMMENT
The Home Owners Loan Corpora
tion announces that for the present
at least it will accept no more applica
tions for loans. The sum of two
billion dollars has been disbursed,
and the balance on hand, amount
ing to about a billion, will be absorb
ed by applications already on file.
It does not appear likely that an ap
propriation for extending the work
will be sought. The view of the
Corporation is that the emergency
out of which it arose has passed and
that private interests now are in a
position to handle the refinancing of
mortgages. Many who had it in
mind to borrow through the federal
agency referred to undoubtedly will
be disappointed, but if there is no
occasion for the Home Owners Loan
Corporation to enlarge its field of
action, that circumstance indicates
an advance toward a normal busi
ness condition which all will wel
come.
Up to a week or so ago, anyone
who wanted to carry money out of
the country had to convince the
Treasury that the cash was being
used in the regular course of busi
ness, and get a permit. Under a new
order, money can be carried abroad
gold alone excepted. A man with a
dollar in his pocket now can move
about almost as freely as a tramp.
Seriously it is expected that the
transaction of business will be facil
itated, and that a step, even though
a small one, has been taken in the
direction of stabilizing our currency
away from home.
A public official thinks that the
speed limit for autos should be rais
ed in cities, and that a good deal
should be left to the discretion of
the motorist. He says that when
accused of making forty miles an
hour, he asked the policeman: What
if I was? His ideas about speed
may be correct, but he is not to be
followed in his method of handling
a traffic cop.
An Englishman has discoverde the
key to the shorthand system used
by the ancient Greeks. If they had
shorthand, did they have to wrestle
also with poor handwriting? Speak
ing of poor handwriting, Horace
Greeley was no expert penman. A

subordinate on Greeley’s paper came
to him with an inquiry as to where
an article on the feeding of hens
should be placed. With a character
istic explosion, the famous editor
informed the questioner that he was
reading the manuscript upside down.
Turning it end for end, it began, ac
cording to Mr. Greeley’s interpreta
tion: The time for the resumption
of specie payments etc.
A wide variety of incidents have
attracted attention during the past
twenty years, and most of them
have been forgotten. The fact that
Thomas J. Mooney is again in court
shows that the Los Angeles bombing
is not one of the forgotten. It is|
presumed that the law will deal
justly with Mr. Mooney, and he may
be dismissed from further considera
tion. The point to be recalled is that
until her death a short time ago,
his mother labored without stint for
his release. When trouble comes,
everyone knows to whom he may
turn for help. Women sometimes
are hard to please, but history has
recorded who it was, in a well
known instance that was plast at
the cross and earliest at the grave.

MY WILD ROSE
OF THE YUKON
Some pick a lovely Southern Rose,
Some fall for Hollywood;
But I have picked a Northern Rose
That wears a “parka hood.”
She’s a graduate of simshine,
The husky dog her “car;”
She’s pilot on a friendship craft.
That watches near and far.
She’s my Wild Rose of the Yukon—
With a heart as pure as gold,
And the sunshine of her lovely
Smile
Would melt the coldest cold.
My Rose is lythe and husky too,
For she roams the hills afar;
And the twinkling of her shining
eyes
Are my one Guiding Star.
I’ll be happy in my cabin North,
With love all round my door,
My Yukon Rose is waiting there,
What more is there—what more?
