C iOHCMll! esi If "our domestic and industrial life is paralyzed," it is be cause the republican congress refused to enact reconstruction legislation recommended by a democratic president. If our "foreign relations have gone mad and Americans are losing the standing they have been a hundred years fighting for, it is because the republican majority of the senate has held up the peace treaty negotiated by a democratic president for more than eight months refusing to accept any compromise that does not change the meaning of the covenant and practically nullify the league of nations, refusing cooperation with the world in main taining peace, lest it benefit a democrat. If our "great commercial empire is threatened with creeping paralysis" it is because congress, both branches of which are con trolled by republicans, has been in session since May 19, 1919, and has done nothing to revise taxation or business regulation,! nothing to curb profiteering or to permit the reorganization of commerce or creation oi merchant marine. Mr. White has made the wrong diagnosis. The country marks time and drifts backward because we have a deadlock between a republican legislative branch and a democratic admin istrative branch and there is no cooperation between them, be cause this is a presidential election- year and the welfare of the country is side tracked for the welfare of party, and the possible effect upon the election. Congress refuses to enact beneficial and needed legislation, lest the administration receive credit, figuring that the public will place the blame for inaction upon the administration. It is a situation that usually exists when one branch of government is controlled by one party and the other branch by its rival. If there were a republican president and a democratic congress, we would have'the same condition it is one of the benefits of partisanship. It .has resulted in hopeless political confusion that is rapidly destroying faith in politicians and undermining political parties. Politics and partisanship are the trouble. The people having surrendered government to politicians are reaping the reward. The politicians of one party are as insincere as those of the other, A change in labels will work no magic transformation. If both conventions are controlled by politicians, we will continue to Have similar government under similar conditions in future. What has a political party become? A neuclus of politicians after jobs and power of patronage, financed by special interests seeking privilege, employing organizers to form clubs and rally the faithful, working press, pulpit and movies with propaganda, appealing to ignorance, prejudice and passion, exalting the label as a sacred fetisch, exuding glittering generalities and spluttering rainbow promises of reform and prosperity, bewilder ing the people to secure the votes to place the politicians in power. As Mr. White admits, the main object is to get the offices the principles can wait. Therefore the appeal to patriotism. It has worked before. Politicians are politicians, no matter what their label, and firmly believe that the people like to be humbug ged and act accordingly. It may work again and it may not.

Rippling Rhymes BY WALT MARON WINTER STRAWBERRIES It was a bitter winter day when to the grocer's joint I went, to price the predigested hay, and buy a nutmeg for a cent. "These berries here." the grocer said, "have just been shipped in by ex press ; they come from lands where frost is dead from southern Florida, I guess. A box of these," the grocer cried, "will cost a dollar and a third; and you may eat and swell with pride, and folks will say you are a bird," The village baijker ambled in, his whiskers full of s.now and ice; "Buy berries?" said he, " 'twere a sin to cough up such a beastly price!" The leading lawyer came along and gazed upon that pallid fruit, and said His head is working wrong who for such stuff would give a hoot." A half a dozen men of wealth passed up the berries thus displayed; they said 'twould undermine their nealth to pay the price the grocer madfi. And then the villace tinsmith came, and hnno-Vit n hnv hia B,(i ' .v..,,,. nauoitfi tot- eyga agleam; ne said, "in take tnem to tne dame, and she will . dish them up with cream." To moralize in doleful pitch I might proceed, but bedtime s nigh, and wealthy men are always rich, and tinsmiths well, they're living high. "Beware of a dark man!" he said "He'll make trouble for you if he can." "That must be Farmer Green." Mr. Fox remarked. "I shall have to be careful." "And I see a spotted person chas ing you," said Jimmy. Mr. Fox shuddered. "Old dog Spot!" he said. "Hurry and finish! I must be running along". And he glanced over his shoulder as if he half expected to see Spot come bounding towards him. "You are going on a Journey," Jimmy Rabbit otld htm. "You are-going to the other side of Blue Moun tain. Beneath the great oak near the lake" (everybody had heard of the great oak) "when the moon comes up tonight, you will find the surprise of your life That's all!" Jimmy said. Mr. Fox thought it was well worth one cabbage. And he went off won dering about that surprise. Jimmy Rabbit told many fortunes that day. And the last one of all was Henry Skunk's, because Henrv was so slow In coming up the hill from And you can lind me under the big: v. . willow near the brook."

And Mr. Fox was the quickest of all. Jimmy Rabbit looked at Mr. Fox's paw. He wouldn't hold it, as he had seen the gypsies hold the hands of the people who visited them, for he nfver liked to get 'too near Mr. Fox. as Mr. Fox had been. Then Jimmy waited for some time.
