Tariff Bill Coining In August
It is semi-officlally announced that the senate
tariff makers will have their bill ready Aug. 20. It is
to be known as the Hawley-Smoot tAriff bill but rad
ical changes. It is said, have taken place in the bill
sent from the house to the upper branch of the legis
lative department of government.
Many of the leading newspapers of America, re
gardless of geographical bearings, have denounced the
house bill as the brazen work of certain manufactur
ing and other powerful Interests. They say that It
is unfair to the* farmers of the country and unjust to
the consumers both in city and country.
There is a powerful senate combination. Including
progressive republicans nad democrats who may make
life burdensome for the makers of this Iniquitous
piece of legislation unless radical changes are made
In the schedules by the manipulators.
No Tears Called For
Gilbert Swan writes from San Francisco that the
famous old Barbary Coast has lost all of its glory,
being now a quiet commercial arteet of garages, ware
houses and lunchrooms; and, quite illogically. most
of us. no doubt, feel a sort of regret at the news.
In Its heydey the Barbary Coast was known with
good reason, as the wickedest spot on earth. Sailor
men were robbed, beaten, shanghaied and murdered
in its dens. Every form of vice and crime existed
there, unchecked. To its contemporaries the place
seemed like a genuine hellhole.
And yet, so smoothly does time gild bygone things
with the color of romance, our first reaction to Swan’s
news is to feel sorry!
We may as well save our grief. The Barbary Coast
was horrible, not romantic. The world Is better off
without it.
A Profitable Investment
If you have been wondering whether the great
Boulder Dam project could never really pay Its own
construction and operating costs through the sale of
electricity it will generate, consider this bit of news
from Washington.
Ahtough the dam !i not yet past the blue print
stage, various power companies have already applied
for about twice as much power as the dam will ever
be able to generate.
No one knows, just now. whether the government
is going to produce and market all of this power on
its own hook, or whether It will lease production
rights to private concerns. But it is evident that
whichever course it adopts, it at least is assured of a
good return on its investment.
Our idea of a tough Job would be trying to lug
Lindbergh into the talkies —Chicago Evening Post.
It’s all in the point of view. China objects to los
ing its face in the East and Russia its foot—Dallas
News.
When better automobiles are made, most of us will

Union.
It is interesting to note that China and Russia saw
the wisdom of peaceably settling their own dispute as

Wages for Children
It’* a good plan, saya an English writer, to sub
stitute a regular “wage” for those pennies and nickels
you give the children.
Many parents bemoan the fact that their children
don’t realize the value of money. How can they,
when they can get it for the asking? They never
have the chance to learn.
Instead of making mere gifts of money to your
child, suppose you try putting him—or her—on a
regular weekly “vrage” in return for little tasks per
formed around the house. Pennies or nickels paid for
these little trifles, instead of being handed out in
discriminately. will instill the spirit of industry and
thrift at the formative age.
When your boy grows up and faces the world, he
will have an appreciation of the value of money. And
when your daughter grows up and starts housekeeping
she will have an infinitely better idea of how to spend
her money economically. And. at the same time,
you’ll be developing their self-respect.
Making love doesn’t take as long as it once did, but
then it doeen’t stay made as long, cither.—Kay Fea

By HERBERT C. PLUMMER
WASHINGTON. Aug. 17.—No other president of
the United States ever surrounded himself with such
telephone facilities as has Herbert Hoover.
When he is at the executive offices of the White
House he has only to lift the receiver in his own pri
vate office to establish communication with any one
of 61 telephones on his private branch.
When he is week-ending at his fishing camp two
direct trunk lines from the White Hoqpe, each ap
proximately 120 miles long, keep him in touch with
Washington.
Fifteen trunk lines connect him with the govern
ment departments and the Washington central of
fices.
His private switchboard is manned 24 hours of the
day.
And almost at a minute's notice his service can
be increased to 19 more telephones on his private
branch and to 30 additional outgoing trunk lines.
A glance at the history of telephone service at
the White House reveals no such elaborate system as
now prevails nor any president who ever relied on
the telephone in the conduct of national affairs to
such an extent.
• • • •
FIRST ONE IN 1879
President Hayes, during whose administration the
first telephone was installed at the White House In
1897, rarely ever used this system of communication.
Nor did Cleveland. At that time there were but few
government departments and bureaus ard they were
fairly closely located. Messenger service between
these departments and the White House seemed to
answer every purpose.
During Cleveland's first term there were two
telephones serving the White House executive of
fices, but they were seldom used. But by the time
he returned for his second term every government
office was connected with the main telephone ex
change. There were frequent calls over the several
telephones then in use by the executive's secretary
and clerks.
Harding was the first president to employ the
telephone extensively in transacting his dally routine
business. Wilson seldom used the service and the
White House operators had instructions never to call
him on the telephone.
• • • •
MrKINLEY GREATEST USER
The practice of using the telephone in handling
important government matters really began in Mc
Kinley's administration. The first private branch
exchange was installed then connecting all of the
government departments, including the White House.
But Roosevelt did not continue the precedent set
by McKinley. Rarely did he use the telephone ex
cept in an emergency.
President Taft, however, found the service a great
convenience and used both the local and long distance
telephone extensively.
Coolidge was a liberal user. In fact. It was over
the telephone that arrangements w’ere made for him
to take the oath of office as chief executive before
his father in Vermont. The phone, in this instance,
was installed at his father's home two hours after
Harding's death.. All during his administration he
used this system of communication extensively.
But Hoover has outstripped them all. He has been
in the White House only a few weeks before the old
system was discarded and the present elaborate fa
cilities were installed.

xJEHOYAH HATH DONE GREAT
THINGS FOR, US, WHEREOF -
•WE ARE GLAD* - o Psalm 126-3
By Dr. ALVIN E. BELL
Years before the destruction of
Jerusalem and the captivity of its
people, God gave Jeremiah a vision
of his dealings wtih Israel by di
recting him to the potter’s house
wehe Jeremiah saw a vessel of fresh
clay “marred in the hand of the
potter; so he made it again another
vessel, as seemed good to the pot
ter to make it.” Then came God's
voice of his prophet. “O. house of
Israel, cannot I do with you as this
potter? saith the Lord, Behold, as
the clay is in the potter's hand, so
are ye in mine hand, O house of Is
rael’*
Remaking the Potter's Vessel
The vessel had been marred by
the persistent idolotry of God's peo
ple, and the Babylonian captivity
was the divine Potter's process of
kneading the marred clay and pre
paring it so that he might “make it
again another vessel.’’ The time had
come for the process of remarking.
The 70 years of captivity had ac
complished their purpose of driving
out idolotry and retsoring a t 2
appreciation of Jehovah and his
goodness to them in blessing them
and their native land.
Homeward Bound
This purpose accomplished. God
instilled in the hearts of a faith
ful remnant of the exiles a sacred
home sickness for the land of their
fathers, and for the sen ices of the
temple of which their fathers hat'
1 told them. At the same time “Je
hovah stirred up the spirt of Cyrus,
king of Persia, so that he made r
proclamation throughout ail his
kingdom, and put It also in writing
j . . . . whosoever there is among you
of all his people his God be with
him, and let him go up to Jerusa
lem. which is Judah and build the
, house of Jehovah, the God of Israel
I fhe is God) which is in Jerusalem.”
j Cyrus furthermore encouraged the
■
| Jews who did not care to return and
' even the Babylonians to give freely
j cf their substance to equip the ex
I pedition. He tlso restored the
j thousands of sacred vessels which
Nebuchednezzar had plundered
from the temple when he destroyed
it. Thus sanctioned and equipped,
the exiles, perhaps 50,000 in num
ber. of whom nearly one-tenth were
priests, set out upon the most sig
nificant migration in the world's
history to rebuild the city and tem
ple of God—to remake the marred
( vessel of the divine Potter.
Prophesy. Performance, Praise
All this was in fulfillment of
numerous and clear prophesies giv
en through Isaiah. Jeremiah and
Ezekiel but unheeded by those who
to whom the prophets had spoken.
God's sure word of prophesy was
now fulfilled literally and fully and
this marvelous divine performance
called forth sengs of praise from
his appreciative people a3 they sang.
“When Jehovah brought back those
that returned to Zion, we were like
unto them that dream.'' It seemed
too pood to be tn e. They feared
It would turn cut to be only p
dream. They had sown tears of
repentance during their captivity,
and now they vere reaping the har
vest of joy. They had learn
ed their lesson; they never
again returned t> idols. Thus they
justified God's gospel of a second
chance; the divine potter's plan to
“make it again another vessel "
