PRESIDENT COOLIDGE ON THE CONSTITUTION In his recent address on the occasion of the national oratorical contest held in Washington, President Coolidge struck a note of warning and pointed out a great national responsibility. He said: "There is no greater obligation on the community than that of properly educating its youth, of training its future citizens for the duties which in their time they must assume. The world has always contained a dangerously large proportion of people who have believed that the way of progress was by way of destruction. They are commonly in minority, but a distressingly active and determined minority. They would begin the reconstruction of human affairs by tearing down everything that has thus far been erected. It seems as if wellnigh every generation in modern times is destined to try some of these experiments in reorganization by the process of utter disorganization. The only assurance against their machinations is to be found in the inculation among the people of sound ideals of government." This is a fair comment on the trend of the times and the weakness of human nature and human society. In American history, every period has had its discontented factions, its professional reformers. The adoption of the federal constitution was a battle against those who refused to profit by experience or to learn from the lessons of history. The struggle to establish and work out the principles of the Constitution was against the strong tide of so-called reform, determined simply to change "what is." Civil government, like life itself, is a process of development; beginning with fundamentals inherent in human existence. No principle has endured that is antagonistic to human welfare citizens of the land in the basic principles of the Constitution, the powers of Congress under the Constitution and the duties and obligations of citizenship than now. Sound ideals of government must be in harmony with sound ideals of human existence, individual liberty consistent with duties and obligations to others, the common defense and the general welfare. Sound ideals include sound money, sound morals and sound patriotism. After all, whether success this nation has enjoyed is due to the self restraint and moderation of the majority, and the silent yet effective determination of that majority to check the tendency toward destructive and radical notions. Our public schools and higher institutions of learning should teach the simpler ideals, founded on coscience, confidence and common sense. Often it seems as if our modern education was altogether cold and "scientific" too far removed from the human side of life and too much absorbed in materialism, if not agnostism and atheism. Ideals of government must be saturated with human interest, self-sacrifice and personal nobility. They are not mere theories or scientific formulas. Citizens are not mere people to be catalogued and classified according to some scientific dogma. They are the living and throbbing heart of the republic. To them, the Constitution is not a rule of law, but a guide to personal conduct and personal relationship to each other.

Losing jobs The adoption of the federal constitution was a battle against those who refused to profit by experience or to learn from the lessons of history. The struggle to establish and work out the principles of the Constitution was against the strong tide of so-called reform, determined simply to change "what is." Civil government, like life itself, is a process of development; beginning with fundamentals inherent in human existence. No principle has endured that is antagonistic to human welfare. No social or political organization among men is or ever can be, perfect;; but that which endures builds on what is worth while already. Our own federal Constitution was well-nigh wrecked in civil strife, because a minority desired to destroy what already existed and start something new. This obsession has not departed altogether; and even now not a few seek to discard the fundamentals upon which our national structure is reared and again experiment with what have hitherto proved false. There are minorities or "blocs" in Congress, and minorities in sections, filled with discontent, and imbued with the false notion that Congress can wave a magic wand, cure all political and economic ills and create wealth by a mere "be it enacted." In many of the committee rooms in Congress today repose hundreds of bills offered by these minorities, which if enacted, into law, would strike at the very foundation of our institutions and overthrow the financial and economic principles upon which the republic is built. There never was a greater need of properly educating and training the PROTECTION GIVES US THE MONEY Proving too much is often the fatal mistake of the advocate of a bad cause. It is a mistake often made by the opponents of protection. Not long ago we had an illustration of that in the case of a British manufacturer who was urging free trade for England and who admitted that he had established factories in a number of protective countries. That admission was conclusive proof of the effectiveness of the protective laws in those countries, for protection secured factories and payrolls for them. Recently we had a similar illustration in the United States. Opponents of protection issued a pamphlet in which the statement was made that the women of America do the buying for the 25,000,000 families in this country and that they spend for food, clothing, furnishings, etc., about $40,000,000 a year, or about $1600 per family. Of course the free trade advocates were trying to give the women the impression that under free trade they would need to spend less. But that is not the conclusion the women will draw. They will reflect upon the fact, as told them by the free traders, that they have this enormous sum to spend—and this is the only country in the world where so much money per family is available for spending. And that condition has Attempts of for cash at led compensation World War ve drastic action. Effect was made the Veterans' lives of the Action of the Bu advertisement fered to sell highest bidder.

The women of the country will not take kindly to the suggestion that the tariff system be changed for one that might greatly reduce the amount they have to spend. The existence of a low tariff law from 1913 to 1922 does not alter the truth of the statement that our amazing prosperity was developed under a protective system. From 1860 to 1893 we were continuously under a protective system. We had four years of low tariff and hard times during the Cleveland Administration, and then protection until 1913, when the Underwood law was passed. For a few months that law was effective, and some four million men lost their jobs, but the outbreak of the war shut out imports more effectively than any protective tariff, and created new markets for our products. By the time normal conditions began to return, following the war, a new Republican tariff was enacted, in 1922. So the fact is that with the exception of a short time, this country has developed its industries under protection. And that system has given the women of the country, so the free traders tell them, an average of $1600 per family to spend. Of course, the opponents of protection want the women to get the idea that they could get more if they would throw down the tariff bars and buy goods made in Japan, in China, in England, in Germany, in France, and elsewhere on the continent of Europe where low standards of living and wages prevail. There are a few women who will accept that line of argument. But there are more who won't. Most of them will ask, "what shall it profit me to be able to buy goods as a lower price if my husband loses his job and I have no money with which to buy?" Losing jobs is one of the necessay western city for the purpose of buying up compensation certificates in the hope of reaping huge profits at the expense of the veteran and of the government. The "scalpers," it was pointed out, will in all probability find himself if he buys up such a certificate, with only a non-nogotiable scrap of paper. The government has no intention of permitting wholesale "scalping" of certificates, inquiry at the veterans' bureau and among members of congress revealed. The law was carefully drawn, it was pointed out, to protect the veteran and his dependent and to throw all possible safeguards around their interests. Section 606 of the law will prevent payment by the government to any other than the veteran himself or his dependents or beneficiaries designated only by the director of the veterans' bureau. This section is as follows: "No right to payment under the provision of this title shall be assignable or serve as security for any loan. Any assignment or loan made in violation of the provisions of this section shall be held void. The director shall not make any payments under this title to any person other than the dependent or such representative of the dependent as the director shall by regulation prescribe." Authorities are agreed, that persons who attempt to purchase adjusted service certificates will find themselves the losers.

There are a few women who will accept that line of argument. But there are more who won't. Most of them will ask, "what shall it profit me to be able to buy goods as a lower price if my husband loses his job and I have no money with which to buy?" Losing jobs is one of the necessary incidents of the adoption of a low tariff, for the low tariff encourages imports, and, with more imports there must be less production and less home production means less employment, and wages cut off. The women of the country are not going to vote their husbands out of a job, especially when the free traders tell them that under the protective system they have reached a point where they have, on an average, $1600 per family to spend. AMERICAN LEGION NEWS Attempts of "scalpers" to buy up for cash at large discounts adjusted compensation certificates from World War veterans will be met with drastic action. A statement to this effect was made here by officials of the Veterans' Bureau to representatives of the American Legion. Attention of the Bureau was called to an advertisement in which a veteran offered to sell his certificate "to the highest bidder." Bureau officials were also advised of reports huge financial pools are being organized in a leading middle service certificates will find themselves the losers.
