STOP WARFARE! URGES MR.
LLOYD GEORGE
“There must be no more war!”
This is the stirring slogan which David Lloyd George has been shouting fervently into the ears of American audiences. It has met with quick and hearty response. This pacific sentiment is being echoed and re-echoed throughout this country. Peace sentiment in this country was never stronger than it is today. Americans, always disposed to peace, were so appalled by the horrors of the World War that peace seems sweeter to them now, perhaps, than it ever did.
“There must be no more war!” Let this become a national slogan. Let the people cry out for peace. Let statesmen shape policies to promote peace. Let every proper, practicable peace movement, wherever it may originate, have the support of this country, provided it does not draw the United States into the domestic brawls of other nations, with which this country wants nothing to do. Peace should be in the prayers and the activities of the American people. The slogan of David Lloyd George should be the slogan of every lover of peace in this land and in every civilized land—
“There must be no more war!”
Everything possible should be said and done to promote peace and good will among nations and peoples. Peace must be cultivated. It is not a plant of wild growth.
HARNESS COLORADO FOR USEFUL PURPOSES
The days of running wanton, on the part of the Colorado River, are about to end. Man has been at the mercy of this wilful stream.
HARNESS COLORADO FOR USEFUL PURPOSES
The days of running wanton, on the part of the Colorado River, are about to end. Man has been at the mercy of this wilful stream. But the Colorado is to be put at the mercy of man. It is to be dammed and controlled. Its vast stores of flood waters are to be turned from a curse into a blessing. Power for railroads and factories innumerable and lights for cities, will be generated. Floods no more will harass the rancher or endanger cities and towns. And millions of acres of potentially fertile soil will be reclaimed. Furthermore, the city of Los Angeles has ambitious plans to carry part of the impounded waters across the desert and through mountain passes down to this Southland to amplify this section's reserve supply of the vital fluid, for domestic uses and for irrigation and factory needs.
God must have intended that man should subdue these mighty natural forces and make them serve his needs. They lie lavishly in all this region. Through courage, and enterprise, and resourcefulness, man is enabled to control elements and forces which, uncontrolled, are banal and destructive.
If the statesmanship of the world were animated by the spirit of Abraham Lincoln there would be more peace and good will in the world.
They need a few peace-doze to roost in Oklahoma.
Mischief brewing politicians and bandits are vexing China. It is difficult to say which is the worst pest.

COMMENTS OF THE PRESS
WHAT EDITORS ARE SAYING
COOLIDGE UNEXCITED
(Louisville Times)
Those persons who had hoped that President Coolidge would do or say something radical in connection with the conference of the Governors were disappointed. The President refused to share in the excitement over the wet and dry issue. He told the Governors that there should be coordination of the Government agencies and the State agencies. He suggested that public sentiment should be invoked in behalf of enforcement of the Constitution. That was about all. Mr. Coolidge took the situation calmly. He declined to be stampeded into the hands of his enemies.
The case, as The Times has said, is very clear. There is no wet and dry issue. There is no occasion for excitement. The prohibition law is in the Constitution. The Government and the States have concurrent jurisdiction in the matter of enforcement. Officers are under oath to support the Constitution. There is sufficient power back of the prohibition law.
Generally speaking, the dry law is enforced. There are sections in which the law is not enforced. But there have always been sections in which lawlessness has been evident. The problem is not new or peculiar.
Americk's great need is a public sentiment behind law enforcement. The good citizens are entirely too prone to accept law enforcement and to wink at privilege. The situation is serious, but the excitement of the Governors is hardly explainable except on grounds of political ambition. President Coolidge, declining to become excited, has the best of it. He points to the law and puts the case up to the people.

Perfect?
—of course no!
No bank's service is perfect, because human beings render it. And as soon as we attain to what we presently think is "perfection," we see other "perfections" ahead, to be worked for.
Yet, our customers do not hesitate to recommend these banks to their friends, for they know that we are constantly striving to make our service as nearly "perfect" as we possibly can.
In fact, three-fourths of all our new depositors came here as a result of such recommendations.
