War Is going on between Turkey and Greece. Another. war is threatening between Bumnnia and Hungary," There may be war or benevolent assimilation between Italy and Austria,. 'European governments have a million more men under arms than in 1914. They are spending 12,000,000,000 a year on the eld militarism when .they should be retrenching. Why give them 11,000,000,000 more to spend f It would seem that the plain, common-sense way for Americans to help Europe would be to collect every dollar of that $11,000,000,000 war debt as soon as possible within reason, that Esrope may not spend still more for larges armies, greater air fleets, and more deadly poison gas. If Europe is so well pleased with tbe results of its last war that it desirhs another, that is its affair. But it shouldn't expect us to contribute $11,000,000,000 toward another .massacre of nations. That is what canceling the European war debt would seem to amount to. And, furthermore, if I understand the temper of the American people, they intend to plant no more forests of white erosses in foreign lands. We should make that plain. COLOR AND MARKSMANSHIP.

Immediately after the bolsheviki won control, special guards were placed about the Hermitage and it was saved from looting. The already priceless 'collections ars being augmented today by tho most valuable of tbo objects of art confiscated by the government from private persons during the early days of tho revolution. In paintings, ths Hermitage ranks with the Louvre in Paris and the fa-- , mous galleries of Spain The Dutch and Flemish pictures are more numerous and more valuable than are the collections in Holland or Belgium. In all, there are more than 2000 paintings, each of which is worth a small fortune, and there are besides 200,000 engravings and 12,000 drawings, each so valuable that it merits careful preservation for posterity.' Most of Petrograd s other famous, art galleries and museums, which also are again being opened to the pubhA prove, like the Hermitage, to be inflet, The same is true of Moscow anf other principal Russian cities, where 'the soviet government, like the regime of the czar, has zealously guarded collections of art. anTty.

(Generally, thia sort of program ema- sates from some university and is vigorously espoused by persons of radical inclination, who endeavor to use organizations of repute or ona of the established political parties aa their vehicle for expression and thua to escape the stigma of radicalism. Whether the propaganda be aimed at taxation or another governmental activity, th plan it alwaya the aame to substitute government by men for government by law. It ia based on the assumption that the people are not fit to govern themselves and that they should bo permitted only to elect a few and to provide revenue with which the few elected officers may administer all the affaire of government themselves or through persona whom they may appoint. It. ia, of course, in violation of our original plan of government. In fact, with only a alight modification, it ia the identical form of government the American colonists fought to escape.

The only exception to this is found among officers who may have worn glasses to correct re- fractive errors. " THE END NOT YET. States supreme court has refused a rehearing in the Southern The United Pacific ease and the order of the court will be carried out. But after tbe OTder is obeyed tbe interstate commerce commission holds jurisdiction, under the transportation act of 1920, to authorize consolidation of railroads where it is In tbe publie interest, irrespective of antitrust laws. Certainly, there is no impropriety on tbe part of anyones seeking the application of new law to the Southern Pacific-Centra- l Pacific ease, so that the present unified system may bs retained in the Interest of economy and for the betterment of service of the traveling and shipping public. Whenever the commission (ths interstate commerce commission) is of the opinion, upon application of any carrier . . . that the acquisition by one of such carriers of the control of any other such carrier . . . will be in the public interest, the commission shall have the authority by order to approve and authorize such acquisition, is the unequivocal language of the act.

So we may conclude that tho application will shortly be made in due form and the matter put up to the interstate commerce commission for adjudication.
