President (’oblidie is wedded to economy. Or at least, he is trying to convince the country that he is.

He gives one the ipipres- sion of being penny-wise and dollar- foolish. ‘ But what we started out to say is 4 hat the President did not Tiny a now hat for Easter *^iid thereby caused hundreds of men likewise to re fra i n, from buying what they could wetl ‘ # afford to purchase. Consequently, merchants throughout the country probably felt the effects of Mr. Cool- idge’s parsimony to a greater or lesserv degree. As the Washington News aptly expresses it— “Economy is a virtue, parsimony is a vice, and miserliness a crime.. “We can work hard and save with out becoming misers, and without re ducing life to a drab .struggle to pro.- 'vide only food and shelter a id cloth ing for the body, and no joy or pleas ure for the soul.” The kind of economy that the American people want to see Mr. Coolidge practice is economv in ’the administration of govern merit. If he needs a'new hat for Easter aml. cap afford the price, he should buy , it. Some people believe that the wearing of overalls in 1020 as a .protest against high prices was partly! re-* sponsible for the financial dehactF that followed, and who knows what dire consequences might follow in the wake of the Pre-ident’s refusal to buy a new hat for Easter? into town, shelter of the lark, Jast Friday evening.

Fun Uncle Sam’s Ultimatum. lli^rk "Evening bassador’s word in thn “are . as aut bent ic; Uncle Sam has. delivered an riltinta- tiiin to Europe. It is not an ultima tum of war but one of peace. The spokesman was Ambassador Alanson B. Houghton, who, at the Pilgrims’ Dinner in London recently, t Id the nations of Europe "that ^meriea will not continue to pour her gold into Europe if it is to lie spent in prepara tion-” for another slaughter.-’ This country has trie I in vain for another disarmament, parley, while all the time international distrusts seem to he growing .more bitter.’ Hence life AmUassadar’-s wa.ruing. “There are ultimatums <>f peace .as well as of war,’ remarks the New Xmerienn. and the Am in this m-taneo ly and etUieially Ano rican. is if they had been uttered ,n the White House." The Post re- ga.rds \mliassatlor Houghton’ speech as "an ultunatum fr in 1 plpuill.dt'U ja rsoii-" md - ays I'urtl'.er: “For seven years American loans Ui.-e moved by bullions across the Uantic. Euiope's mutual distrust, however, has not lessened. N u have go-alrwill . and goi>a faith'b'ch la 1 - stona' 'rhiie has been neither moval nor physical disannanu nt..

The aid we me now giving, whether monetary or moral, will come to an end unless good faith and mutual trust drive out hatreds and distrust. “This is no new foreign policy. President Coolidge stated it a year ago. It is not aimed at Frame or any single country. , “It is aimed at all of Europe. These opinions are hedrd everywhere in ’America. After all; it does no more than state the feeling of .nine in In .practically all cases- second and third offenses canv ineieased sen- tenccs and fines. While -onto of the Indiana news papers applaud the new law, others apprehend “a bitter train of conse quences. not to the contraband liquor traffic but to the people of Indiana 'and their system of legal justice.” Solne editors express the fear that “the new law is so drastic that juries will not convict," declaring that the law which it suppliants was severe enough but was loosely enforced.
