SAVING THE MERCHANT MARINE
President Coolidge harks back directly to one of the
principal policies of President Harding when he opposes
the transfer of government-owned vessels to foreign reg
istry when they are sold to private interests, and says
that the nation can well afford to pay for the extra cost
and inconvenience of keeping the American flag on the
seas. Mr. Harding did his best to persuade Congress to
pass a very sensible bill to accomplish this very thing, but
because he was straightforward enough to use the expres
sion “ship subsidy” all the demagogues in the national
legislature rose on their hind legs and howled and brayed
and made a dead set against the bill.
Will Rogers doesn’t hear all the worst jokes. There
are lots of ’em running for Congress.
POLITICS IS—WAR
Because the clerk of one of Wisconsin's counties fired
Miss Selma Fjelstad, his deputy, he has learned some
thing about politics. He told her she lacked initiative. So
she entered the primary and beat him out of the nomina
tion for his own job. Thus is illustrated the elementary
proposition that a good politician does not find positions
for his friends solely to reward them for their loyalty to
him. He also has in mind the thought that unless" he
keeps them happy they may start scrambling to get his
own job a wav from him. And maybe they will do it any
how. What a life!
The report that Detroit is the wettest spot may be un
founded. She hasn't a candidate for President or Dele
gate to Congress.
SPURS TO AMBITION
To get on in business, and in society, and lay up some
thing for a rainy day, a young man must carry life, acci
dent, fire, windstorm, burglary and liability, insurance,
five clubs, water on both shoulders a high head and any
of his wife's near relatives who would be a disgrace to the
family if left upon their own resources.
A gentle voice indicates good breeding and that the
other fellow is larger.
WOMAN’S RIGHTS!
The pilfering wife, whose deft hand searches the in
nermost recesses of the trouser pockets of her husband,
is encouraged in her fell purposes by a decision of Judge
Hibbard, in Pittsfield, Mass., holding that a wife’s raids
upon her husband’s cash cannot be construed as larceny.
USEFUL REVELATIONS
These Central American revolutions and Chinese do
ings are annoying affairs but they prevent American gun
boats from rusting away at their moorings.
