. 4, J ON THE SLEEPING PORCH.
S ENATOR HARDING in his latest attack on the League of
Nations says he "would rather have industrial and social
. peace at home than command international peace of the
world." '
The senator is asleep at the switch. We know from bitter
experience that about the most difficult thing on earth is to pre
serve social and industrial peace at home when a world is afire
with: war.. Our present, internal difficulties arise not so much
from' internal conditions as from world conditions. They are
,the fruits of war.
Senator Harding's attitude is that he would not seriously
care it tne rest of the town did burn up if only his own house
escaped He forgets that when a general conflagration is on
no home can be safe: He ignores the patent fact that joint ac
tion is what is needed if the world is ta be protected from de
struction. ,v.Tne League of Nations is in effect a world fire department.
It is a common sense move against a common danger. It was de
signed to check the operations of any nation that might wish to
turn firebug 9 did Germany in 1914. Right now the league is
needed and sorely needed because another gang is loose. The
Russian reds are moving pell mell to burn the town if they can.
That is their purpose and dont forget it. They were trained in
Berlin and for cold blooded ruthlessness Trotsky, and Lenin
have no superiors. They will stop at nothing.
"? But where is our fire department? One main wheel is miss
ing from the cart because a group of senators, Harding included,
had a holy horror of doing something for humanity. They
blocked the peace treaty and to excuse their action appeal to
little Americanism.- While the bolsheviks rush towards Warsaw
and endanger the peace of the whole world, Harding sits on his
porch and smugly talks of isolation. Let him tell his story to
the v. idows, the mothers and sisters of the men who died in the
grest Tire that ended November 11, 1918. Let him tell them of
hi theory about extending The Hague convention and preserv
ing "peace by justice rather than by force."

retention of the trophy over here. Some measure of na
tional satisfaction arises from this outcome. Undoubtedly
there has been skilful seamanship and excellent headwork on)
board the winning yacht. Grateful, too, is the knowledge that
the cup was defended against a challenger of full pluck and
sportsmanship. These good details, cannot bind us to the fact
, that never again may tle racing for the America's trophy take
' place with popular appreciation under like rules and circum
stance, says the New York World. ,
The competition which has just come to a conclusion was in
spiring in prospect Day by day, with the passing of events be
low Sandy Hook, the glow departed from the adventure. Inter
est quite intense attended the first events. A flutter of doubt
arose with the fuss over high winds and low winds. Finally
came the mischief of people laughing at the sad state of toy
boats which, it seemed, must have their breezes made to order.
It is not alone in mythology that the laughter of the gods is fatal
to. whatever incites it.
. Sir Thomas Lipton has said that he will challenge again;
that he will endow a challenge in his will. It is up to the holders
in trust of the coveted cup to meet him in any future event with
conditions proportioned to the firmness and grimness of his
sportsman's will. . The America's Cup and the great sport for
which it stands are worthy of a game struggle, calling for all
around seamanship, between yachts which, instead of being
the dupes of fickle breezes, can turn the laugh on a gale. That
a change from play-racing back to the real kind will involve also
a shift in the racing month presumably goes without saying.

- Householders who would like to see a little street sprinkling
in the summer time and other evidences of greater pep in the
conduct of city affairs will do well to consider the move to
make our city government more efficient. - .. '
28 YEARS AGO
DO THE people of Pendleton want the city to obtain own
ership of the vacant block by the Catholic church and
fa tract of similar size towards the west end of the
city so as to have this property for park and playground pur
poses? Committees representing the Parent-Teachers associations,
the Commercial Association and other bodies have taken the
view that the purchase of such land is highly desirable. It is
foreseen that if such tracts are to be acquired by the city the
quicker the better. It would be obviously poor judgment to
wait until buildings had been erected on such land for then the
price would be higher and the land might even be unattainable.
It is held that to convert such tracts into grass parks would
help beautify the city, would provide children and adulta with
recreation places and at the same time the municipal ownership
of such land would, insure its availability when needed for any
form of public improvement that might be desired later.
Such favorable support has been given to the proposition that
the Commercial Association has formally endorsed it and has
instructed the city affairs committee to continue its work with a
view to placing on the ballot a measure providing for the pur
chase of one or more tracts of this sort. The measure will quite
likoly be on the ballot this fall subject to approval or rejection
by the people.
This newspaper is frankly in favor of the plan and feels
confident that when the entire purpose in mind is understood
there will be little if any objection raised.
