At the National Gapitol War Words The War has brought out a lot of words that have been popular for a few weeks. "Normalcy" has been coined by the President-elect, and it is "the latest." Since it is in only a few of the dictionaries, it is late enough—in more ways than one. A mathematical dictionary says normalcy relates to "the co-ordinates of the point of contact. Possibly it is a non-resembling kin to 'camouflage.'" The investigations of the War have demonstrated the former ascendancy of "camouflage," and now that "normalcy" is in high favor in official circles at Washington, all will wish for it a success at least equal to that of its less deserving kinsman in the family of forceful words. "Normalcy," according to employers, seems to mean lower wages. Manufacturers figure that it means continued high prices, retailers interpret it to imply big profits, and the consumers think it means that things will be cheaper. In the language of brass tacks "normalcy" means the return of confidence based upon courage. It has something to do with meeting the demand for a billion dollars worth of new homes and houses by building them; and to put another billion dollars worth of electric railways, gas pipes, telephones and light wires, sewers, and other public utility improvements in operation to make possible decent living in decent establishments. "Far from the maddening crowd," since living, according to conditions of "normalcy" is among civilization's most urgent demands.

THE ORANGE COUNTY PLAIN DEALER, ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA written, it means intelligent use of the cheese-knife in slashing appropriations as they have never been slashed before; because "normalcy" must do a lot of subtracting on the tax bill to prove itself in successful operation in Federal and State administration of the public's affairs. Henry Ford says that "men who were laid off during the shutting down of industry are taking off their silk shirts and are drifting back to the farms." Henry occasionally pulls a good one, and if he is right in this instance, it is another victory for "normalcy." We all tip our aqua glasses to Senator Harding's new word. The Luxury of Peace Formal peace with Germany and Austria, and commercial treaties that will place the United States on the same economic basis as the European countries that are not technically at war with the former belligerents, will be among the first acts of the Harding Administration. The President-elect and his closest advisers doubtless hold to the purpose to "scrap" the Versailles agreement. But, while that document may not be acceptable as a basis for international affairs, there is no question but what the matter uppermost in importance to our future welfare, is the finding of a policy that will promise peace through out the World. This is reflected in the passing by Congress, over the President's veto, of the bill to reduce the Army from 280,000 to 175,000 men, and the determination to reduce war expenses. Republican Leader Mondell, in the House, has made a vigorous denunciation of the policy of perpetuating the burdens of war upon the taxpayers of the Nation during peace times. Spending the Taxpayer's Money The next time the "pork barrel" cry reaches your ears, just remind the critic that in a chart recently prepared by the Bureau of Standards that it is proved that caring the last nine years, exclusive of war costs, all of the civil activities of the Government represent less than one-third of the total expenditures. A speaker at an event where Government expenditures was discussed a few nights ago, produced a dollar bill. He cut it almost in the middle—40 per cent to be exact, and held up the piece to represent the proportion of each taxpayer's dollar required for the Army, Navy, and for pensions and care of soldiers. The Legislative, Executive and Judicial, was represented by clipping 15 per cent off the dollar. Public works took eleven per cent. Rivers, harbors, public building and reclamation projects, and all the alleged "pork barrel" matters that represent permanent public improvements do not combine all told, the amount of any division of the military machine. The man who cut the one dollar bill had to pure it very fine to illustrate the expenses of Education, Public Health and Research.

The engineer says that he has investigated the idea of hauling material from the Olive pit to this locality and finds that it is possible to have it delivered by private trucks under contract for the same cost as by car from Los Angeles, providing the county engineer has adequate equipment at the plant and is authorized to install an electric hoist to replace the temporary gasoline hoise which be has rented. —If it's from Wittman's, it's good!
