DAILY GREETING TO OUR READERS Truth crushed to earth, shall rise again— The eternal years of God are here; But Error, wounded, writhes with pain, And dies among his worshippers. Bryant. PENROSE BACK FROM DEATH'S DOOR. Ever since President Wilson sailed for Europe the country has heard the rumblings of war between the executive and legislative branches of government. Their disputes have involved the whole nation, and the Republican victory in the campaign cannot be construed otherwise than as a victory for the legislative claim to be consulted freely in the matters of treaties, foreign policies, etc. Mr. Penrose, just arrived from death's door, but apparently in as good fighting trim as ever, declares: "Congress will herafter blaze the way in our foreign policies and will not sit back and take the program of any secretary of state. Cabinet possibilities are therefore of secondary importance at this time." Whatever else one may say about Mr. Penrose, all agree that "he knows what he is talking about." That is because he has the power in the senate and in his party to make, break or spoil policies and plans of mice, men, politicians or statesmen. Mr. Penrose voices a feeling that is supposed to be quite general in the senate. Interpreted, it means that President Harding and his cabinet ministers need not expect to formu- Dr. C. S. O'Toole Physician & Surgeon Phone: Residence 548 late foreign policies without first consulting the senate leaders. The Penrose warning means that if this policy, as it has been carried out heretofore under former administrations, is attempted, that it will not meet with support in the senate. The senate has the whip hand, and Penrose and company have already given notice that they propose to crack the lash. UNDEVELOPED WATER POWERS There were practically the same number of water powers in 42 B.C. as now, even tho fewer of them were developed; and in that year one Publius Sayrus wrote: "Amid a multitude of projects, no plan is devised." This observation applies as correctly to the condition with reference to water powers today as it did when it was first written. The difference is that "projects" have been filed to the number of 140 with the Federal Power Commission, but that official body has no one to do the investigating that is required by the law that created it. Because of a very meager appropriation the Commission has been able simply to put its head above water, and to say, in effect: "We are ready to receive your offers." And right there the Commission has had to stop. However, the friends of water power development have been busy themselves in congress within the past two or three weeks, and it is altogether likely that there will be early legislation that will provide a working force for the Federal Power Commission. It will then be possible to make the necessary investigations and pass upon the projects and authorize the beginning of water power development. Quite recently a report was secured by courtesy of the War Department upon the project at Great Falls on the Potomac river, and it was favorable. A dam above Worthington Dr. C. S.

Center, Anaheim PROTECTS SUGAR INDUSTRY Under the tariff rates for the 20 years ending with 1914 sugar brot into the federal treasury roundly $1,000,000,000 or an average of $50,000,000 a year. In the fiscal year ending June 30, 1914, the customs revenue from sugar was over $61,000,000 and even with the lower duty in force since that time the net income from this source has approached $50,000,000 a year. On the basis of last year's imports a duty of two cents a pound would have yielded a revenue of approximately $150,000,000. A strong probability exists, therefore, that when the revision of the tariff is undertaken this year the import duty on sugar will be materially increased. By adopting such a course congress will be able to assure the maintenance and continued development of sugar production within the ESSEX $695 Cash $75 Per Month R.G.

WOUNDED, sick, disabled veterans of the world war should be cared for promptly, tenderly and generously by the United States government, and by state governments—not in a grading way, not as charity, but as a partial payment of the debt of gratitude that the whole nation owes these brave men. EVERY ONE who has strong faith in and love for pure home life should be sworn enemy of anything that threatens the integrity of the American home or that imperils its purity and happiness. The protection of the home against vice, discontent and impurity is the concern of every decent person in the land. THE BEST business judgment, mixed with quickened conscience for faithful service of the public, should prevail in making up national and state budgets. The people want retrenchment that is real. They want economies that are actual, in government expenditures. They want efficiency and wholesome advancement in government—but they want this effected at the lowest possible expense. AN ENCOURAGING, inspiring sign of the times is the universal hunger and thirst for knowledge among the American people. Despite the fact that there is a much higher percentage of illiteracy in this country than should be, there also is an abundance of proof that millions upon millions, young and adult, are in eager quest of knowledge. This is evidenced by overflowing schools, by greatly increased enrollment at universities and colleges, and by the vast numbers who read newspapers, magazines and books. The people are seeking knowledge with keen appetite for it, and not like slaves scourged to an unwilling task. The Village Gossip Time: Saturday night. Place: Corner of Los Angeles and Center-sts. Actors: two boys and a girl, the revelation of whose names would bring a libel suit. Weather: Stormy. One boy to another: "I'll bet you a cigar you can't go by that corner." The reason was a very pretty one, but the wager was accepted, and the wagerer politely raised his hat and said in his most becoming manner, "How do you do?" The only reply was a look that withered, the speaker's knees smote together, and he was quite sorry he wanted a cigar so badly. Penitently he became more shaky the farther he advanced and soon collapsed and his comrades found it necessary to take him to the county hospital where after three hours he was revived. Miss Mary Huenctmerer was the guest of friends at Long Beach on Sunday. Mr. and Mrs. L. Lund and family motored to Puente Sunday and visited with relatives.
