Self-knowledge it a positive ettential of tuccett. Workers or y Profiteers ? THE railway* of the United States*, which, according to Vice President Atterbury of the Pennsylvania system, are facing bankruptcy, use about a hundred and fifty mil lion tons of coal a year. The average cost a ton of coal to the railways during the | >ear 1920 was $4.17. There was a steady increase in the cost of railway coal from March, $3.49 a ton. to October, $4.77 a ton. March was the first month that the private owners operated the roads after the 26 months of government op eration. The railway coal bill was about $16,000,000 more in October than it was in March, due entirely to increased price. This was more than half of the railway deficit on the C per cent l>asis. That there has been and still is outrageous profiteering in coal is conceded by every one except the coal operators, and a good many of them admit it. . Two hundred and fifty million dollars is probably a con servative estimate of what the railways paid for coal in 1920 more than was necessary to yield a fair profit to the coal operators. . The railways are the largest single consumers of steel in its various forms. It is notorious that the steel industry has exacted mil lions from the railways in excess of prices that would yield a fair profit to the steel masters. Certainly there is both reason and logic in the protest of the railway employes against wage reductions to make up stockholders' dividends, while hundreds of millions of what should be railway profits arc being paid to steel and coal profiteers. Making or Breaking Him A WIFE'S job may be divided into three principal parts: Bearing children; Spending her husband's money; Keeping her husband fit to earn. And her biggest job is the last of these! For the first is pretty much a matter of biology, the second a question of economics, but the third requires an endowment of those "gifts which come only from above." There is always a protective quality in a man's love for a woman. But also he has a feeling of dependency. The woman he goes home to at night must needs take the place of his mother. To her must he bring his boy confidences, the pettinesses of the day that has ragged his nerves. From her must he take back to the fight next morning sympathy, and understanding, and faith. For we never quite grow up, we people. And being created social animals the only things we really cannot live without t.re companionship and the approbation of those companions. It is the woman sharing the mature fortunes of a man who makes or breaks him. AL JENNINGS, whose right to pronounce judgment cannot be questioned, says that bandits of today are not gentlemen. One of them treated Mr. Jennings roughly in New York, despite the effort of the author and ex-outlaw to talk shop. Facilities for swift communication in our cities have speeded up robberies until there hardly is the leisure for the pleasantries and the nice regard for the sensibilities of vic tims which characterized those glad, free days when A 1 was in the saddle. Mr. Jennings, deprived of eighty-four dollars and a par don signed by President Roosevelt, speaks harshly of the New York professional. But he must remember that nothing is as it was in the far-off nineties, neither bandits nor bankers, law-breakers nor landlords, grocers nor gunmen. Everybody who can remember back notices the change. The California thnr<tring vendor tr&o inherited « millimi thould tpend the income to encourage the InimNnn of a tare „ permanent tip.

The Chinese Benevolence Association of Seattle Refused to Recognize the New Loan Made to China Recently by the New Consortium According to authentic report*, negotiation* for a new loan by the New Consortium. of which the United States In a member, to the Peking Oovemment, have Ju*t been concluded. The New Loan, an Mated, was to be expended In the upbuilding of education, tha development of Industries and the completion of the Bzechuen- ItankowOanton Railways; in a word, It provide* for the recon *l ruction of China. Thl* earnestness on the part of the New Con sortium to assist China should have the gratitude of her people If the political strife had come to an end, the country were unitml a* one, and the government upheld by a National Assembly estab lished by constitution. Unfortunately, th* present situation i* far from being In • pence, ful state The Peking (lovernment, supported by aft 'unconstitu tional National Assembly, rnnnol be said to represent the will of the people. With this New 1/an the bitter internal strife win be rekindled, and perhnp* the monarchical movement re-enacted, and the Inevitable consequence will be further (Instruction Instead of reconstruction of the country, a defeat to the original etirnealnnu of the New Consortium to put China on her feet. America has lone been regnrded our best and stauncheat friend the first to recognize the Republic after the overthrow of the Manchu* In 1911. Hut In the participation In the New Consortium to advance this new loan that was Just reported concluded, to the Peking (lovernment, II I* not only a great disappointment to the people Of China, hut also a confllctlon to her recognition of th* establishment of the Republic. Looking hack Into the pasl. we find that the defeat of Oie *eoond revolutionary movement In 1913, when all the people rose against nan Slil l.al and his Intolerable administration, was duo to a loan from the United Slates negotiated under the pretense of recon struction. On the other hand, we find In 191«, the refusal of another loan by the United State* hud been the cause of failure of hi* dream of an Umpire. Thl* proves that in so far as th- internal peace and future prosperity of China I* concerned, the attitude of the United Hint#** In dourly Involved. Consider for a moment that your President were to arrange for a loan or to enter into an agreement without the sanction of Con gress, would It not arouse the Indignation of the people and public opinion directed against the action? We look upon this New Loan In the same light, with added scrlnusnran because an unconstitu tional Government Is responsible. In View of thl* grave situation, we feel It our duty an people of the Republic of China, to refuse recognition of all necret ngreeinenta and loans that the present (lovernment mny have entered or will enter into, and Ht Ihe same time earnestly appeal to the people of the United mates that until thl* long-delayed Union of (he North and South Is a r.allwitlon, with a Constitutional (lovernment and 11 National Assembly, to Influence the New Consortium to wlthdruw negotiation* for the New Loan and prove aguin the same staunch friend of China. - Advertisement.
