DAILY GREETINGS TO OUR READERS And in each of these rebellious tears Kept bravely back, He makes a rainbow shine; Grateful I take his slightest gift—no fears. Nor any doubts are mine. —Cella Thaxter. There should be peace with justice in industry. The summer is one of California's most delightful seasons. A big strike today is, in effect, a lockout of prosperity. Cities, counties and states need to be advertised systematically, just as do mercantile houses. Moral teaching of children is a breakwater against waves of crime and vice. He or she who practices thrift today-need have no fears of the "rainy day." Self-help will bring Europe economic help more quickly than any other formula. Political adherence should be based upon intelligent conviction, not upon prejudice. Say good words for California where they will do good in a promotional way. The people should be protected against profiteering in connection with the coal strike. ECONOMIC ILLS HAMPER EUROPE MUCH Europe is economically sick. It is billious, has high fever and is afflicted with lassitude. Physician after physician has prescribed for it. But the illness persists. It will persist until Europe gets itself into a healthier economic atmosphere. And the problem of Russia and of German reparations haunts the sickbed of Europe and keeps its nerves unstrung and prevents recovery. The United States has sympathy for sick Europe. But it is averse to taking charge of the case. Should Europe show itself disposed to heed the old adage, "Physician heal thyself," this country gladly would cooperate to promote the healing process. It is felt in this country, however, that Europe must find its own remedies and must apply them, before it reasonably can expect assistance on a big scale from the United States. It is a plight of Europe's own making and it must bear the brunt of remedying the plight. BUSINESS BETTERMENT IS GENERAL From all sections of the United States cheerful reports were given of the bettered tone of business, at a recent meeting of the directors of the United States C. of C. More than 30 directors were present and spoke optimistically. They represented every part of the country and were men of affairs, in position to know whereof they spoke. Their testimony was encouraging all along the line. The two big strikes now proceeding are the greatest drawbacks to resumption of normality in business and industry. If these are settled soon, the tide should run heavy toward economic normality. With all the influences at work to that end, settlement of strikes should be effected Town in HELLO, ALL S It has been county residents to run for office nic in some quiet We heartily indo will be glad to from the other 2 Only one more do you any good registered.

The lawbreaker is not excusable on the ground that the law which he violates is not popular. The United States will welcome the day when all the world joins in a compact to reduce and permanently limit armaments on land and sea. Labor, capital, the public—these three: no one of them should ignore or trample upon the rights of the other two; no two of them should disregard the rights and immunities of the other one. There never was a time when there was greater need for men and women to keep level heads than right now. The country is in the midst of a crisis, but wisdom and moderation will carry it through. Voting in the August primaries is as important, in essentials, as voting in the general election in November. Have a voice in nominating the kind of men you want to serve you at Washington and at Sacramento. Ford THE UNIVERSAL CAR recent meeting of the directors of the United States C. of C. More than 30 directors were present and spoke optimistically. They represented every part of the country and were men of affairs, in position to know whereof they spoke. Their testimony was encouraging all along the line. The two big strikes now proceeding are the greatest drawbacks to resumption of normality in business and industry. If these are settled soon, the tide should run heavy toward economic normality. With all the influences at work to that end, settlement of strikes should be effected erelong. Meantime, all the other conditions which are favorable to betterment of business and industry will remain in force and effect. A Canadian astronomer has discovered two suns which are some 5000 light years distant from the earth—or a little more distant than the prospective time of passage of the pending tariff bill of Congress. Two suns have been discovered many quadrillions of miles away from the earth. There doubtless are suns decillions of miles away, but telescopes now in use are not powerful enough to bring them within the range of human ken. Every man or woman who leads a strenuously busy life and who is combered with much care, should have periods of complete rest and relaxation frequently, even though these be brief. Modern life is killing, if one does not ease up occasionally from its wearing activities and exacting responsibilities.

New York Letter W LONG JOURNAL PRICE NEW YORK, July 28. — Dennis Shea has been missing some of the night fires recently in the Long Island and town where he serves on the volunteer fire corps. He has been one of the most regular and hardest workers at those which took place in the daytime, however, and when the matter of the seventeenth annual parade of the corps came up, it was decided that Mr. Shea had a perfect right to be one of the marchers in spite of his occasional remisness when it came to getting out at night. This decision was based on the fact that Mr. Shea is no longer as young as the average fireman—volunteer or otherwise. In fact, he has passed his ninety-first birthday and has served as a volunteer fireman for 70 years. So it seemed as though a margin of clemency might be due him. New York jewelers are dismayed—and even excited—over the duty on platinum provided in the amendment to the tariff bill introduced by Senator Poindexter. The United States Geological Survey reports practically no commercial production of platinum on the North American continent, and American manufacturing jewelers have always been dependent upon importations of that precious metal for the making of the jewelry sold both at home and for export trade. There is already a duty on the jewelry itself, but because of the skill of our designers and workers, we have been able to import the platinum, make it up and then export it to compete with goods manufactured abroad. It is nonsense, the interested parties declare, to talk about a "protective" tariff for something which doesn't exist in this country in large enough quantities to amount to anything. "Unless some one has found a platinum supply somewhere in the U.S.A. and let Senator Poindexter in on the secret, the whole thing is beyond us," one of their representatives said. It is nice to think of our love. Letters From People The Plain Dealer: Our attention has been called to statements which are being made to the effect that the Pacific Coast Jockey Club is in favor of the adoption of an initiative measure, known as the Horse Racing with Gambling Bill, and which will appear on the ballot at the November election. We desire to infor mthe voters of California that we are unalterably opposed to the adoption of that measure, or any like attempt to introduce gambling on horse races. It is the aim of the Pacific Coast Jockey Club to promote clean sport for the people and to encourage breeding of thoroughbred horses in California. It is the opinion of the Pacific Coast Jockey Club that the adoption of the Horse Racing with Gambling Bill would seriously interfere with these high aims and that it would again bring horse racing into disrepute in this state. Those who are connected with our organization are moved by a desire to restore horse racing on a legitimate basis and as a public benefit. We ask those voters who agree with the racing principles of this association to vote against the adoption of the Horse Racing with Gambling measure. We shall greatly appreciate publication of this statement in your paper so that our position on this question will be made clear to the public. Yours very truly, PACIFIC COAST JOCKEY CLUB, By H. Spreckels, Secretary. San Francisco, July 25. Orange County Plain Dealer: Many young men this summer are spending their vacation hunting up their pedigree in search of Revolutionary ancestors.

Most of us think we were born a few years too soon. THE O. O. BUCKET For years we have all been moaning about the "old oaken bucket that hung in the well." Quartets have advertised the famous old bucket until most of us have it indelibly in our brains as a symbol for pure, refreshing drinking water. Now comes the Connecticut state board of health and warns that most wells with an old oaken bucket are germ-polluted, and about as fit to drink from as a swamp. Most of our sentimental ideals would be unmasked the same way if we gave them sound analytical thought. Among Orange-co men "missing from home" these days are some of the 65 county candidates who are out campaigning the back country. IT'S ALMOST A FORGOTTEN SUBJECT IN WASH., D.C.

It is nice to think of our lovely things being worn up and down the boulevard in Paris, but the only platinum ornament I have been able to acquire is one my dentist thrust unwillingly upon me—and goodness knows, the cost of that impressed me enough! To a Bronx lad of ten years goes the honor of discovering the latest method of gathering in the coin of the realm in this city of many queer jobs. The youngster stations himself at the entrance of Bronx Borough hall and waits patiently for the appearance of young couples. As soon as he spots a couple he approaches and announces, "Up one flight." Invariably the shy young man breaks out into smiles and gives the young Wallingford a coin. Of course "up one flight" is the marriage license bureau. Edward Goodman is the latest addition to the theatrical producers of the city. Mr. Goodman was one of the founders of the Washington Square Players and its director from the beginning of the organization until it disbanded. For his first play, Mr. Goodman by an arrangement with Whitford Kane will present John Galsworthy's "The Pigeon." Mr. Kone created the leading part when the play was first produced in London about 10 years ago and he will play the same role in this production. The Greenwich Village theatre has been engaged for the play, which will be presented in about a month. In addition to Mr. Kane, the only member of the case announced is Georges Renawent who will play the part of Ferrand, the French vagabond. It is expected that trade between this country and China will be greatly expedited by the opening of New York's first regular Chinese bank, a branch of the Merchants Bank Ltd., of Hong-Kong. Lo N. Lau, who was graduated from Cornell in 1919, is manager of it, there being no such position as president in a Chinese bank. SUITS SUITS SUITS Tailored to Fit $35 and up H.

Orange County Plain Dealer: Many young men this summer are spending their vacation hunting up their pedigree in search of Revolutionary ancestors. The Sons of the Revolution is encouraging them as a summer drive has been started for new members. The attendance at the historical and genealogical library of the Sons of the Revolution, 424 South Broadway, Los Angeles is greater than ever before in the Society's history. Many of these young men seeking information about their ancestors are from other parts of the country, from Texas and Colorado and the northwest. Of course the intervening places are largely represented also. Searchers from surrounding districts of Los Angeles are finding nere that local libraries have neglected to gather. The accumulation to data in the reference library of the Sons of the Revolution in Los Angeles, is the largest of its kind in any patriotic Society anywhere in the United States.

This is but one of the constant evidences that many houses are genuinely interested in providing an artistic format for their wares. An essay which A. E. Gallatin has just published on "Modern Fine Printing in America" gives due credit to men who, like D. B. Updike of the Merrymount Pers, William Dana Orcutt, of the Plimpton Press, and Bruce Rogers of the Riverside Press, have labored for the improvement of American typography. In the pages on book production which he regularly publishes in the London Mercury, R. H. Newdigate praises fine examples of American printing only less frequently than of British, and his comments show that British publishers and printers are watchful for new and artistic American type designs. The old way of publishing a book was to send to the printer for estimates and strike as hard a bargain as possible for quick production and low price. The better way is for printer and publisher to collaborate in the issue of as tasteful and satisfying a book as the funds allow. Much is due to the various private or subscription presses, which have especially flourished in England since William Morris set up his Kelmscott Press in 1891. In the design of new types and the revival of old ones the tasteful handling of initials, margins and headings, they have taught many lessons to commercial printers and have helped educate public taste. But it is the commercial printer, not the press which sells a very limited edition of Boccaccio or Malory for $50 a copy, in whom most of us are interested. The country of the presses first named above, the Knickerbocker, De Vinne and Lakeside Presses, fortunately has not lacked WHAT THE DEAF AND BLIND DO Berkeley (Cal.) Gazette When a young man, now 23, totally deaf since he was 5 years old, with no tutoring or any special help, has gone through high school and a technical engineering school on a par with his classmates who have all faculties unimpaired, the achievement is worth comment. But the case is by no means isolated. The deaf or blind student is now a familiar enough sight at college to be taken quite as a matter of course. During a discussion of the possible difficulties to be encountered by a blind student at a woman's college recently, one of the students remarked that there was almost always some one there with either sight or hearing lacking. The deaf ones got what they could of the lectures thru lipreading, and had books and the notes of other students to fall back on. The blind ones were considered such exceptionally able listeners to lectures that the other girls were always offering to read aloud to them and help in any way they could, in exchange for the help these students could give by supplying missing facts from memory. It has taken a long time for the world to learn that the senses are not in themselves part of the mind. They are merely channels for the Thinker to use in getting facts or pouring out thoughts. When one channel is blocked, a good Thinker simply turns attention to deepening and widening others. The deaf or blind boy or girl should be given every assistance toward working out a normal life for himself by means of the faculties he has. The greatest mistake that can be made by parents or community is to let him feel abnormal and become dependent. The Paris police have been equipped with a number of automobiles carrying radio telephones with which they can communicate with one another or with headquarters.
