Public scntiiiicut and the lie- tl
cessity for reduction of government
expenses forced a cut in
tile size of the urmy and navy, j,
' but instead we have an enlarged 0i
in ugruiu ui nnuiary training. tn
Congress is making appropria- l'
ticnsd'or National Guard encampmeats,
citizens' military training k
camps and for military depart- St
meats for many colleges through- cj
out the country, besides for some d
form of military training for 1,1
high school boys. The thing is
being overdone. We have cut jdown
the number of professional oi
soldiers, and that was a good 4,1
day's work, but we are going ul
ahead promoting another war.

There are two classes of people?those
who do things and ti
those who stand still. And it is li
found, when policies of public >'
r iimprovement
come up tor discus- ^
sion, some will undertake to ^
show why things cannot be done ci
and others will undertake to i
show how they can be done, l'oth 11
kinds of people are perhaps lion.
.. . . . 4>
cni ami equally uevoted to tlie e
public good. They simply look p
at ...things from different stand- a
points. But as a general propo- v
sit ion, the people who want to do
things and those who try to show
that things can be done are in (.'
the right. These are the people cl
who carry the world forward and n
elevate it to better things. .. ^
Business - conditions are im- A<
proving, slowly but surely, not ?
because of anything Congress has j
done, but because a revival ot' v
business always follows a period d
of stagnation. Two years ago the
country was in a fever of speeu- w
lotion. There had to be a halt, **
and it was a drastic one. People
* quit buying. There was a eontraction
of the currency and a "
contraction of business of every j
kind. But it was not in the na u
ture of things that this state of tl
affairs could continue very long, it
There was bound to be a change P
and now it is coming. Times are
getting better, slowly but surely. j
If you take a man's property
without paying him for it he becomes
indignant. lie will hale
you before the court us a thief ^
and ask that you be 'punished. c
The law undertakes to protect a t|
man in his property rights. The ei
same principle, coming up in a u
- different form, causes many men
to look upon their jobs as a form j
of property. A man's job is his a
means of earning a living and he tl
resents the effort 011 the part of
anybody to take it away from
him. Sometimes property is un- 0
profitable, but it is nevertheless -ej
his own. So a man may have a n
poor job, but he regards it as his }'
> . H
own. Ana some job holders may jj'
think they have a right to abuse (j
their jobs and still hold them. T
All of which leads up to the ex- n*
pin nation as to why strikers resent
strike-breakers. If we had
a provision of law by which * la
man who abused his property or P
failed to use it for the public IY
good would thereby forfeit hfc'C
right to it,- it would be easier to b
deal with strikers who attempt 01
3 to keep strike-breakers from tak-' w
rag their jebt _ Iz

luch of the material with which
i? is charged was never delivered
