COLOXKI, HAIiVKY Iihn boiinccil from Wilson to William Jcn niiit;s Bryan. The most relentless rncniy of Wilson's league, the editor of Harvey's Weekly now advocates a popnlar'rel'erendum ns. the corner stone of world peace. Such a referendum, the litenhry Colonel admits, can only bo ap plied to a war of agression. A defensive war, of course, is always justified. Not one world power could launch an a.'frressive war he asserts if the war declaration depended upon a popular vote, for world opinion is unalterably opposed to military agression. ' Accepting this assumption, for the sake of argument, what gov ernment in the world would call for a referendum on an aggressive war? Of course, none. In the jargon of diplomacy all wars are de fensive. It is admitted now that the war of 1870 was an aggressive war on Germany's pnrt, but at the time no one in Germany wouM be lieve it. Bismarck engineered the preliminaries ho skillfully that the attack appeared to come from France. Kven in 1014 a majority of the German people believed they were entering n defensive war. that if Germany did not strike, she would be surrounded and over powered by a circle of enemies. A referendum at that lime "would have been for war, ten to one. So in the world today. The danger point has moved from Europe to the Orient. If another war comes it is generally believed Japan will start it. what sane person can tute a plebescite on an aggressive America's eastern possssions. The war, and we don t believe Japan tial enemy strikes the Jirst blow. diplomacy. No, a referendum will never abandoned. As long as the policies of a nation arc formed and ma nipulated behind closed doors, as long as it is possible to keep a na tion in ignorance of what is actually going on, and thus play upon the fears and prejudices of the masses, talk -about the war referen dum is nonsense. ' . . , Genuine Democracy is Ihe only war, open covenants openly arrived at, both internationally and in- Iranationally. When. the people as capable of so controlling elemental truth, then a referendum will niifcii observed parenthetically, no referendum will, be needed. . - A . POOR EDUCATION I'M sorry for the girls and lads who grow up in these wanton times, for they havo learned to blow the scads, have learned that care and thrift are crimes; they've seen their mothers and their dads with wild abandon burn the dimes. They've learned, it's folly to provide by saving, for the rainy day, that life is just one gladsome ride along an endless Great While Way; that all sane rules should be defied, that dawn's the time to hit the hay. They've learned that silk alone is fit for gaudy girls and boys to wear, but no one learns to sew or knit, or frame a de cent, (bill of fare; and all must strive to make a hit,, though creditors may rear and swear. We've taught them many foolish tricks, we elders who should be more wise; for we were buying brazen bricks, and throwing roubles at the flies; we've got tho young folks in a fix with us tho dark dishonor lies. They're starting out on their careers convinced that money grows on trees; and prudence to their view appears a thing that has the scent of cheese, and we mislead these gallant, dears, we boobs, with whis kers to our knees. It was our duty to be sane when younger ones blew in their wads, to rise like sages and explain that waste in vites the chastening rods, to prove extravagance is vain, and thrift the offspring of Ihe gods. No Time for Hoarding A groundless apprehension has been created In Ibis city and elsewhere by tho dissemination of ill-advised ap peals to people. In be thrifty, those tendering advice of that chniactep not Inlreituently throwing out Intimations thai a situation Is impending, wl lcli calls for the exercise of tho leaving habH In order that p.-ovlslon n,ay be made lor n period of adversity. No sensible person will dlsput-i tho as sertion that It is desirable to pr.n-ti.-e thrift, but those who preach tho vir tue and laud uu necessary sclf-d"nl--il as a remedy, accompany their admo mitioiiM or appeal:! with misrepresen tations, they accomplish more 'barin than good. It Is essential to progress that capi tal should be created In order that projected cntcrptiscH may bo carried out, but Its creation does net neces sarily involve the practice of Helf-tle-nlnl. Tho income tax returns diwloso that there Is a largo number of per sons whose revenues greatly exceed their needs, who do not reiiulro the stimulus of an appeal to save, who arc only too ready to apply the advice to themselves and curtail expenditure"., which no rational economist will characterize as extravagance. Their easy acceptance of Ill-digested advice tends to precipitate rather than avert the evil they seek to remove. The trouble ali'll.-tlng us is nn out come of the war. It can only be cured by Increasing production, and production will not be promoted by refusing to buy. The effect of such ibstcntion is to deter rather than In rease production. We have incurred obligations, which must be redeemed, and they cannot lie met by reducing wages or throwing workers out of employment. The wage camera of tin country are the consumers as well as Its producers, and they must be pald on a sale commensurate with the standard of living established for themselves. That standard must be preserved If the country la to Con tinue prospering. It cannot be sacri ficed to assist the process of deflation. That must be accomplished by In creasing production and through the extension of enterprise, as it was dur ing the period following the close of our flvil War. anil not by weakening the imcutlvc !n evpand which would be a necessary accoinnanlmeut of diminution of the uielwslng power MEDFORD MATTJ' TRIBUNE,- believe that Japan woidd ever iusti war in China, Russia, or against thing is absurd. If Japan wi(nts does, she will sec that her poten That is the first rule of secret slop war, until secret diplomacy is force that can prevent aggressive a whole, are given the truth, and are racial prejudices, as to accent the sbiiu'thing. And then'it might be lit. " "W t-A of tho mass of workers, whoso earn ings and expenditures have tended to promote that complexity, which is tho outstanding fcaliiro of modern civili zation and cannot be Impaired with out inviting disaster. Tho process of deflation will not be unduly hastened. Those now most eager to seo it brought about win recognize tho pertinence of tho well observed facts that tho world mimt buy If things are to bo produced, and that only by producing in excess rf our needs can wo hope, or ought we to. for a lower prlco level and a Male l' wngcH that will curtail the pur chasing power of tho producers of cnusumnhh' things.
