Frothingham HONESTY PREVAILS IN AMERICAN LIFE A great flurry has been raised in Washington by the investigations of scandals affecting certain men in public corporations in private life. Considerable evidence has been adduced of such incriminatory character that President Coolidge has named special counsel to proceed legally. But much more ado has been made over these things than the facts warrant. Even granting that each and every person accused is guilty—still, too much ado has been made. For only a few persons have been accused. And there are vast numbers holding public office throughout the country—in Washington and elsewhere—who are clean, upright, untainted. They are the rue, Dishonest, unfaithful public officials are the rare exception. And the same is true as to men in business and private life. Honesty is the rule. The vast volume of business transacted in this country daily—so enormous as to stagger the imagination—proceeds with so little dishonesty that there is accurately a ripple on the tranquil seas of honesty. The whole economic fabric is so infiltrated with honesty, that confidence prevails in every direction. Think of the confidence the people have in the banks—confidence that is deserved. Who loses anything from dishonesty in a bank? Nobody. Banking is superlatively honest, safe and sound. And so with other huge And the same is true as to men in business and private life.

Uprightness is common, crookedness is very uncommon. It would be unwarranted misjudgment to condemn whole groups of men and interests in public and private life being without honor and without conscience in business relations.

DINNER STORIES The visiting Englishman, with an eyeglass screwed to his eye, stared in fascinated horror at the ugliest infant he had ever seen, which was in its mother's arms opposite him in the street car. At last, his fixed gaze attracted the mother's attention, then excited her indignation. "Rubber!" she piped wrathfully. Thank God!" exclaimed the Englishman. "I fancied it might be real." A motion picture company was out on location. In one of the big scenes was a motley crowd of extras used as revenue officers who, with machine guns and sawed-off shotguns, were to fire on the supposed rum smugglers who were to fire back again.

"Hey, there!" he yelled. "The director said shoot at Will. My name is George!" The old colored man left the Methodist church and joined the Baptist.

Davis, under secretary in the Wilson administration, was accepted an invitation from the League of Nations to serve as chairman of a new commission which will endeavor to solve an international program growing out of the Territory of Memel. The solution of this problem is regarded by European statesmen as essential to the peace and economic progress of the Baltic States. Entering into the problem are the conflicting desires of Lithuania and Poland, and this conflict is so bitter that technically a state of war exists between the two nations, although no shot has been fired. While Davis was asked as a private citizen only to accept the chairmanship of the Memel board he has served the government officially on many important commissions. At the beginning of the world war Davis volunteered his services in any capacity he might be needed and was appointed financial adviser to secretary of the treasurer, in charge of loans to allied governments. Later he served as special delegate to Madrid, London and Paris. He was a member of the supreme council of supplies and relief, finance commissioner of U.S. to Europe and official financial adviser to President Wilson and the American peace delegates in Paris. He was a member of the armistice commission and later a member of the supreme economic council. He assisted in drafting the financial provisions of the peace treaty and then was appointed a member of the reparations committee and financial commission. In November, 1919, he was made assistant secretary of the treasury in charge of foreign loans June 10, 1920 was named Comments of the Press What Editors Are Saying TRAFFIC GOES INTO EMERGENCY—San Francisco Journal From all over the country comes complaint about the situation of ordinary traffic forced upon the people by the increased popularity of the automobile. Every large city is rapidly approaching the point of absolute traffic congestion and something will have to be done about it. The establishment of some one-way streets and the entire prohibition of parking cars in busy thoroughfares are probably the two things that promise most immediate relief. But even that can only be temporary in view of the steady and enormous increase of the traffic. There seems to be no point of saturation for the sale of cars. Pedestrians may soon come to the point of considering taking up their residence in houseboats on the water if they are pushed any farther. The objection to this plan would be that it would interfere with their usefulness as pedestrians. If they should really come to the point of making a fight for their rights they would have an irresistible line of attack on the ground of proportional rights. There really seems to be no reason why one man in an automobile should be allowed to occupy as much space as twenty men on foot. A fair comparison of the speed of their respective goings would give at least that result. It becomes monotonous to pedestrians to have to wait at every crossing for an interminable procession of automobiles to pass and then to dart across before the next string catches him. Altogether the problem presents more angles pressing for solution than any other ill that now besets the public. This traffic is already running far beyond the capacity of the streets. It is injuring the streets. It is injuring the business of the merchants by making it difficult for the public to approach their stores. Customers must get to a merchant's store before they can buy his goods, and if the hazard of getting there is made too great they will be very much inclined to stop coming. Also it is not to be overlooked that a certain percentage of those customers will desire to approach the place of business in automobiles, taking a chance with the other traffic. This they can scarce do if the space is dangerously overcrowded with a constantly moving stream of other traffic. After the pedestrian and the merchant might properly come the complaint of the user of the car himself.

And men that laugh and weep. Of what may some horseafter. For men that sow to reap. I am weary of days and hours. Blown buds of barren flowers. Desire and dreams and powers. And everything but sleep. We are not sure of sorrow, And joy was never sure; Today will die tomorrow; Time stoops to no man's fare; And love, grown faint and frettful, With lips but half regretful, Sighs, and with eyes forgetful, Weeps that no loves endure. From too much love of living From hope and fear set free, We thank with brief thanksgiving. Whatever gods may be That no life lives forever; That dead men rise up never; That even the weariest river Winds somewhere to the sea. —Swinburne.

ON THE SPUR OF THE MOMENT THE MODERN NOVEL Seated one day at the typewriter, I was weary and ill at ease. My fingers wandered idly Over the noisy keys. Disconsolate, weary and petulant, A complex decidedly blue, Provoked rapidity and I Had nothing else to do. So I pounded my rheumy Remington. Five precious hours and a half, Injecting, when I thought it wise A smile, a tear, a laugh. A song, a sigh, a beautiful girl, A desert and a charming sheikh A storm at sea, a love affair That lasted for a week. At last the manuscript was done. My hands ceased ratling the keys. But gathered up the stuff—the rush out— The publisher fell on the floor in ecstasy. He cried loudly with joy. "This novel is a glistening star!" Well, I can't kick it—noticed me.
