PULLMAN, WASHINGTON, OCTOBER 3, 1919
s-
STARTING RIGHT
"While the American Legion ad
heres to its slogan'Policiesnot
Politics'— it conceivably will have a
great deal to do with politics. Not
with narrow partisan politics. The
Legion was conceived and is being
built of a bigness and soundness far
above that. But it is going to take
cognizance of what Is sound prac
tice and what is not sound pactiee
1c the political readjustment of the
country. Its members are not going;
to wink at political flabbiness and.
political rottenness, Nor are they go
ing to temporize with public or
would-be public servants whose Am
ericanism is found tainted with sus
picion.
"The word has gone out already—
National Headquarters sent it—to 1
every one of the 3500 posts, urging
vigorous opposition to aspirants for
public office whose loyalty to Amer
ica has been brought in question.
The question of party affiliations is
not of the slightest moment or con
sideration. This is entirely a matter
of policy and sound practice.
"There is no place in public life
for draft-dodging slackers, any more
than there is for the type of slacker j
who was able to buy Liberty Bonds j
and failed to do so. We do.not be
lieve It Is sound practice to put them
now in places of responsibility, lead
ership and honor. We do not believe
the public wants to put them there,
and we do not believe they are going
to be put there in the future. Cer
tainly not if the American Legion
can prevent 'it. And we believe it |
can." — American Legion Weekly !
Sentinel. •
"Policies—not Politics" Is a splen- j
did slogan and if lived up to will
make this new organization a power- j
ful factor in the improvement of con
ditions in the United States. There j
are nearly 5,000,000,000 young men
eligible for membership in the Le
gion and they have a strong tie to
bind them closely together. All of i
them have sacrificed so much for |
their country, that they should now j
see to it that their country becomes
more worthy of the sacrifice. They j
have the voting power to do this, if
they use it wisely and in the right!
direction. If the organization keeps \
clear of partisan politics, it can vir
tually control legislation, because it
will hold the balance of power in its '
membership and will be in a better
position to enforce its demands from
any political party in control of the j
administration. ■ i
If the American Legion holds
closely to the course charted by its !
founders it will become end for many I
years remain one of the most potent
and useful factors' in the history of
the nation.
WM. GOODYEAR.
Community meetings. like the one
held at Johnson last Sunday, are a
splendid way of fostering harmony
and good feeling. The fact that this
meeting was arranged by the
churches is an encouraging sign for,
unfortunately, in the past religious
jealousies and denominational rival
ry have been a potent factor in divid
ing the smaller communities <nto fac
tions and fomenting friction among
people who ought to work together
as friends.
As its contribution toward the
much to be desired end of checking
violations of the traffic laws in Pull- j
man, The Herald will publish each !
week the names of all sutomohlltsts
found guilty of speeding or breaking
any other provisions of the traffic
regulations

King Albert of Belgium should be
given a hearty welcome to this state.
not because of his royal blood, but
because in the great war he proved
himself a real man, who took the
field with his soldiers and fought and
suffered with them.
Just at present Pullman is suffer
ing from growing pains, but they are
a good sign and should be cheerfully
endured.
GETTING IT AND KEEPING IT
(By Arthur Capper. United Sti-.tes
Senator from Kansas.)
The successful farmer is the man
who not only gets maximum produc
tion from his acres, but maximum re
turns from the cale of hi* crops
Before ,-.->„ l!lake ril ßposiUon , lf
your crop 'tceipts, consider tie fu
ture with (he same care thai would
be , exercised by a man whose stock
was on hi! shelves instci.l of .11 bis
soil.
Supposing e.ime new Id's t in farm
machinery is developed which will
cut down jour costs an i make your
work ea.s .r. V. ill you have to ci.
In debt to hay ii paying interest at
six or se/o'i -r e.ght per cent?
Supposing drouth, smut, a falling
market, transportation difficulties,
leave you without income next year.
Will you be dependent upon the cap
ital of some more provident man, anc}
pay him a stiff interest rate because
of your dependence?
Why not take serious forethought
and keep capital at your own com
mand? Why not be your own bank
er and carry your own Insurance
against a lean year?
There is one place to put your
money where no circumstances can
cause you loss. That place is in the*
treasury of the United States. The
treasury of the United States will
pay you four per cent, compounded
quarterly, for sums up to $1000 in
vested in War Savings stamps or
treasury savings certificates. Sums
of from $4 7 up can be invested in
Liberty Bonds of various issues. At
present market prices the interest
return is, in some instances, nearly
five per cent.
Bear this in mind. The doctrine
of sound political economy Is th.lt
prosperity depends upon the quan
tity of money available for invest
ment, that is, the supply of capital
ready for the demands of industry
md trade. The popular fallacy that
prosperity is caused by huge sums
:.i money kept in circulation by free
.pending is a dangerous one
People of the United States drew
upon their earnings and savings for
the huge sum of 126,000,000,000 to
finance the war.
An equal sum raised to finance
the needs of peace would keep us
predominant in the world of trade.
Out of the national income of some
40 to 50 billion dollars, the people
Of this country can easily lay aside
stub a sum each year. To accomplish
Ibis goal it is only necessary to spend
our income wisely and judiciously.
to get a dollar's worth for each dol
lar we spend; to invest our surplus
In sound securities, because this in
vestment makes it easier for our
basic industry and trade to function.
The man who turns aside from a
speculative proposition to put his
money into furthering the activities
of the real industries of the country
can feel the same thrill of patriotic
service that he did in buying Liberty
Bonds or Savings Stamps.
And in the purchase of Liberty
Bonds and Savings Stamps today he
I* indirectly accomplishing the same
service. The government must con
tinue to draw upon the financial re
serves of the country for large sums.
Swell portions of these amounts as
the individual furnishes will not
have to be furnished by the banks,
which will have that much more
available for industry and trade.
