X ECONOMIC SHORT-SIGHTEDNESS
The lack of 'economic thought in the United States is a
failing which has been noticeable on many occasions. ' The
. Average. business mlan is giving more attention to his affairs
8it present than for some time past, but so far as business
knowledge beyond his own restricted field is concerned, little
improvement may be noted. .
Even officials, of business associations, whose vision should.
?pe brdader, are frequently found lacking not only in true
sfomipvehension of the economic problems of the nation, but
ilso in, knowledge of. actual conditions in their own narrow
; jfields. v.: "..'.- -
The recent session of congress revealed the helplessness
pf business men when they turned lawmakers for the pur
pose of giving their country a "business administration"
; pnd curing its economic ills. , They neither gave nor cured.
ftAnd it is probable that they were more surprised than their
. ,;Constituents at their own ineffectiveness and ignorance of
xunuitiuiis, ways, una means. : .
, jj They have been too busy running their own businesses to
atudy the larger subject of national and international econ
omy. Here is a gap in the governmental schemes of states
jind nations, which urgently demands to be closed. VVheu
ftvill business men make the sacrifice in time and effort to
.enable them to qualify for these important vacancies in
'statecraft? : f . . , '. :

obligations of the Spanish people.
Thomas Jefferson first laid down the sound principle that
Whatever the form of government, it is the agent of the
'people who in the final analysis are responsible for its acts.
A government exists by the will or tolerance of its people.
2 France has already recognized the new regime, as have
also many other governments; while on the other hand recog
nition was withheld from Russia- for n long period of time,
and our government still refuses to recognize the soviet
government.
I Spain, has done the honorable thing. Even with other
things being equal, this would presage for Spain a better
'government. Governments without honor usually are with
out sympathy with tho rights of man and without concern
for human justice. ;

STATE POLICE
" One after another states have created organizations of
state police until now nearly one-half hnvc them in one form
or another. There is a specific reason for this development,
ipractically all of which has come within the past 15 or 20
iyears. The reason is that conditions which demanded police.
protection in tho cities also have grown up in rural sections. I
jThis change has been brought alxwt by improvement of
'highways and tho great increase in the number of motor
jem's, almost wiping out the lino between city and country
j There could be no argument about the need for police
'protection in tho cities. When the question is viewed in
its proper light, there is equally no ground for argument
