Secretary of the Treasury Mellon, connnentini: npoii nniiu;!l expemlituivs of five I)ilins a year ;' says: '"Tlic nation can not e(nitinui t sjn-iitl at this shocking rati. Substantial cuts in current cxpt-tulitun-s offer the imly liopc uf i'ffe-iivc relief from the tax Inirtlt'ii.

Kor U) cents. snme say fC out of every dollar spent l y the pov enuneiit today :oes toward army and navy expenses. that is war expenses in the past or preparation for war in the future. The only possihility. therefore, of f.illuwiim out Mr. Mellon 's in structions is to not follow out the instructions of Messrs. Dcnhy am AYecks. After noting the amazing transformations of Daniels and Baker in the past four years, hoth pacificists retiring as confirmed militarists. at least as far as their puhlie utterances were concerned. it is folly to expect anything better from their successors. In fact for any cabinet secretary to play down the necessity of his own depart ment, is contrary to tradition and human nature. Hut if there was ever a time to consider reduction of armaments that time is now. The great necessity both in this country and the world is to put the house in order. return to normalcy stop wast ing money and start making it. The first step in this process as Sec retary Mellon says is to make substantial cuts in current expendi tures, and no substantial cuts can be made without first reduciiir the army and navy appropriations.

Hut the cops do things surprisinir. putting guilty jieiits in jails, thouch they cet no advertisine; in the Sherlock kind of tales. Crimes of mystery ending shock the virtuous and true, and we see the fly cops wendini.'. following some feeble clue, and no AVatson with them capers till their weary quest is done, writing up for books and papers stories of the triupmhs won. Hy biographers forsaken, sleuths ;o forth to earn their pay, and they oft bring home the bacon in their drab, official way. Xot by makin-r brilliant dashes through deduction's puzzling maze, not by analyzing ashes do they pinch the erring jays. Just by stern and patient plodding, just by using honest brains, they put down the base marauding of the sinful jakes and janes. How Much Do You Know? s. the 10. caikd 1.
