HARDING TAKES OATH OF OFFICE OPPOSES SUPER-GOVERNMENT PLANS Policy of Giving Business a Free Hand Also Urged in Inaugural SpeechEurope Again on Desperate Military VenturesCon gress Turned Down Farmers With Plea of No TimeSenate Fa- vored Rail Graft by Vote of 47 to 19Arguments Against In- come Tax Show Wealth Concentration-r-Women Fail to Get Ma- ternity Aid Bill. Washington, D. CHis stand against a super-government Is the point select ed by nearly every newspaper as the leading thing In President Harding's Inaugural address. Another point of less relative im portance was a frank recommendation for higher tariffs. The new president said much about reconstruction and industrial peace but offered no theories as to how the country's business oould be Improved and the lot of Its farmers and workers made better other than allowing things to run their course. "Our best assurance," said the pres ident "lies in efficient administration of our present system." Ho sees lit tle or no way In which government activity can be of any use. NO GOVERNMENT INTERFER- ENCE. President Harding can be said to represent fully the non-interference theory. Both he and all those strong in Republican councils at the present time are thoroughly opposed to what is called socialistic activity. And hence this theory ought to prove or discredit itself thoroughly during his administration. The issue is more important to us than foreign policy, but the foreign policy has been more in the public eye. "Confident of our ability to work out our own destiny," said the presi dent, "and jealously guarding our right to do so, we seek no part in di recting the destinies of the old world. We do not mean to be entangled. We will accept no responsibility except as our own conscience and judgment, in each case, may determine. "Our eyes never will be blind to a developing menace, our ears never deaf to the call of civilization. We recognize the new order in the world, with the closer contacts which prog ress has brought." Only experience can show how near the president can come to carrying out such a policy, and no outsider can know just why it was anhounced or how far the administration hopes to abide by It. European affairs almost inevitably drag us into its turmoil unless we decide that Europe cannot be saved on its present basis and iso late ourselves within our own boun daries. EUROPE AFLAME WITH WAR. Widespread war activities, which were foreshadowed by the propaganda of the last six months, have broken out in Europe. Within a few hours of the time when allied troops advanced into Ger many to force payment of indemnity demanded, fighting broke out in sev eral parts of Russia. First reports of the probable overthrow of the Soviet government of Russia carried also the first public admissions of a plan for a drive on Russia by Poland, Roumanla, Hungary and possibly Bulgaria. The Russian fighting i& undoubtedly as much a part of the general allied plan as is the occupation of the Rhine cities of Germany, although there Is good reason for believing that the present activity in Russia went off before scheduled time. In the latest news the revolts in Russia are confined to a few points, Petrograd being the only one of much Importance, and Poland has not yet settled a general strike of railway workers and many others which would prevent any Important military ac tivity. If Russia has succeeded in organiz ing Itself sufficiently to withstand the present revolts and if the .condition of the German people Is not relieved, there Is strong possibility of military union of all peoples east of the Rhine against the Allies. The knocking out of Russia is a fundamental to success of Allied plans regarding Germany. Europe has a more dismal aspect at the present time than at any time since the armistice. NO TIME FOR FARM BILLS. In the closing days of the recent session of Congress a committee of farmers called on Floor Leader Mon dell to aid in hurrying up the packer control bill and other legislation de* signed for relief of farmers. After two hours of arguing the committee left Mondell with the flat statement ringing in their ears that Congress did not have any time to devote to farm ers' legislation. There was time for nothing but appropriation bills. The coal control bill was likewise caught in the jam,, but appropriation bills were easily sidetracked to put through an appropriation of $350,000,- 000 demanded by the railroads. We thus have -another powerful illustra tion of who Congress works for. RAIL GRAFT APPROVED. Senator La Follette's fight in the closing days of the recent session of Congress over railroad appropriations had one good effect the people should not overlook. Senators were put on record as favoring railroad graft or being against it La Follette offered an amendment t the effect that before the interstate commerce commission pays out any ol the fund of $350,000,000 voted for th railroads, the roads should have to show that they had complied care fully with the law, that they had not paid extravagant prices for supplies or repairs, or extravagant salaries to officers and directors. The amend* ment was lost by a vote of 47 to 19. Senator Trammell of Florida, of fered an amendment to the Esch-Cum mlns law cutting the guarantee rate from 5% to 3 per cent in view of the great amount of water In railroad stock. This also was turned down. Kellogg of Minnesota, Myers ol Montana, and Pomerene of Ohio, led the fight for railroad graft. LAMONT'8 TAX^ ARGUMENTS. Thomas Lamont.'one of the king pins of the Morgan banking syndicate, has found a new argument against taxes on large incomes,. He finds that, according to tax re ports of 1917, only IVi per cent of the population of the United States made returns of taxable incomes. Then only 2 per cent of this 1% per cent paid 73% per cent of the income taxes. Lamont holds thjs up as evidence that the income tax is not a fairly distributed tax. Only 3-10,000 of the population paid 73% per cent of the sum collected in 1917. Those who believe that a million aire income should pay no more than an income which enables a farmer or workman to keep body and soul to gether will agree with Laniont. Lamont's' figures thro an interest ing light on how wealth is concen trated in America. We must remem ber that a single person with over $1,000 a year and a family with over $2,000 had to pay an income tax. He also shows how five eastern states paid 64 per cent of the tax, and here again we have a good proof of how our financial system drains the whole country for the benefit of a part of it. THE TARIFF GAME. Many reactionary congressmen and senators are going to brag to the farmers of how hard they fought for the Fordney bill putting protective tariffs on certain farm products. But it is common knowledge down here that a great deal of this was mere po litical pretense. Congressman Tread way of Massachusetts, admitted on the floor that they were working on the assurance that President Wilson would veto the measure. Treadway got cold feet because Massachusetts has a woolen trust and no wool growing industry. He said: "We are now assured that President Wilson will veto it, but I do not want to take a chance." Treadway will be strong, however, for high tariff on manufactures in' the next session. JVIATERNITY BILL LOST. Pigeon-holing of the Sheppard Towner J)ill providing for co-operation between federal and state govern, ments in care of poor women during maternity periods is a good illustra* tion of what reactionary politician!) mean by strict economy. No one can have failed to notice that economy is the argument used to kill those measures which make for social progress. In hard times we de mand economy, but the politicians take credit for heeding this demand by cutting down or cutting out things of great- service to society. A well expended tax dollar brings more to the citizen than the citizen gets by any other dollar he spends. A few dollars saved by relaxing out supervision of business frauds and crime may cost us thousands. A few dollars for some needed public service may save us thousands. This measure, which women's or* ganizations all over the country fought for and which would have cost not more than a fifth of one battleship, was strangled on the false plea of economy. The trouble with it was that big business could not see a way to make a penny out of the measure. SENATOR SHOT. Senator Charles B. Henderson of Elko, Nev., was wounded In the fore arm by a former Nevada resident on March 5th. Henderson, was cleaning out his of fice in the senate building preparatory to leaving the city, because his term had expired, when the shooting oc curred. When arretted, the assailant de clared that Henderson had been coun sel for him in a. suit involving land ownership 25 years ago, and had not been on the square. Henderson said that the man had been treated for mental trouble previously in Nevada. The woung was a minor one. FARMS ABANDONED.

II You Need a Medicine You Should Have the Best Have you ever stopped to reason why it is that so many products that are ex tensively advertised, all at once drop out of sight and are soon forgotten? The reason is plainthe article did not fulfill the promises of the manufacturer. This applies more particularly to a medicine. A medicinal preparation that has real curative value almost sells itself, as like an endless chain system the remedy is recommended by those who have been benefited, to those who are in need of it. A prominent druggist Bays "Take for example Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, a preparation I have sold for many years and never hesitate to recommend, for in almost every case it shows excellent re sults, as many of my customers testify. No other kidney remedy has so large a sale." According to sworn statements and verified testimony of thousands who have used the preparation, the success of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is due to the fact, so many people claim, that it fulfills al most every wish in overcoming kidney, liver and bladder ailments corrects uri nary troubles and neutralizes the uric cid which causes rheumatism.

The veils themselves are works of art, with long silky fringes of varying hues, or borders of crocheted lace. In schools which are aided by the Junior Red Cross of America, French children are taught to crochet, and so can make these useful veils.
