PACIFIC COAST TRADE* The enormous growth of business through the Panama canal is one indication of the trend of the shipping business and the importance and growth of Pacific Coast ports. Already the future overcrowding of the canal is being discussed and it is predicted that within the next fifteen years it will be necessary to widen the canal, make it a water level route or dig another one through Nicaragua. It is inevitable that the near future will see enormous activity in international trade on the Pacific coast. Robert Dollar, 80-year-old steamship owner, who is risking a fortune to establish the first "round-the-world" steamship line, makes some pertinent remarks along this line. Mr. Dollar says the wealth of nations is founded on international trade, that world trade is only in its infancy—the world is only knee deep in sea water is the way he expresses it; that our sea trade will grow as our land transportation has grown; that there be a great future on the sea for the United States; and that the big future of the shipping business lies on the Pacific coast. This moment's duty can not be done as well an hour hence, or tomorrow, as it can be done now. WITHOUT SIN This moment's duty can not be done as well an hour hence, or tomorrow, as it can be done now. WITHOUT SIN Is there such a thing as being too good? No, but we can easily be too sure of our own virtue and put too much stress upon it. This feeling that we are entirely righteous ourselves usually has the effect of making us see clearly the faults of others. Sinlessness seems to make the detection of sin very easy. A certain good woman made herself obnoxious telling other people of their shortcomings. Her intentions were of the best. She hoped to correct the faults of others by pointing them out, but she was so militant that she defeated her own purpose. Her attitude and her motto was, "I make no compromise with sin." A man who knew her well said of her, "That woman has kept more people out of the kingdom of heaven that the greatest sinner ever did." It must be very satisfying to be without sin, although it is written, "If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us." But one who feels himself to be sinful can more righteously and lovingly judge the sinner and help him to overcome his sin. It is easier to lift others up if we first get down where they are. President Coolidge promises the world fliers to urge Congress to provide for suitable advancement in rank and other rewards. This should be given promptly and graciously. They deserve well of their country. Dinner Time AND nothing prepared! But...there's a package of nineteen golden HOLSUM TEA BISCUIT in the house, so have a tempting HOLSUM scallop.

ROOSEVELT, JR. Another step along the same political path his illustrious father has been taken by Col. Theoreo Roosevelt, Jr. He has won the nomination for governor of New York state and will oppose Al. Smith in the fall campaign. He took his first important step in his dad's footsteps, when he imbued into the world war as his dad in the Spanish-American skirmish. Young Roosevelt emerged from the war a lieutenant colonel. Thus celebrated he entered politics and won a seat in the assembly in Albany, N.Y. Roosevelt returned from France in command of the twenty-sixth infantry. Not all his experience in France was gained on the line, however, for he spent considerable time in Chaumont with General Pershing. He is 37 years old, a graduate of Harvard, a lawyer and possessed of many of the characteristics of his father. He was married to Miss Eleanor Butler Alexander of New York in 1910. They have three children. Roosevelt captured a degree at Harvard in three years and then out to learn the carpet business. In 1912 he abandoned cars for a clerkship in the brokerage offices of Berton, Griscom &anks, Wall Street. Two years later he became a member of the firm of Montgomery, Clothier &eller, bankers and brokers of Philadelphia. He managed that firm's New York office. He was as active as anybody in organizing the American Legion, but refused to compete for the national chairmanship of that organization because it had been raised about that he might benevolently. He made vigorous initial of such intent at the time declined to run for chairman. Roosevelt went up and down a country campaigning for President Harding after his nomination and indulging in agricultural work. COMMENTS OF THE PRESS What Editors Are Saying JUVENILE CRIMES SHOCK BAY CITY—Santa Barbara News Aroused to the seriousness of the juvenile crime situation in San Francisco by the fact that nearly a score of boys between 17 and 21 were arrested there in one day charged with crimes, the police of the city have sent a newspaper questionnaire to parents asking them to check up on the actions of their boys. They are particularly anxious to find how the boys spend their evenings and where, who their associates are and to what organizations they belong. This is all very interesting. It indicates a desire on the part of the police to prevent juvenile crime. It would be well for the people of San Francisco to go a bit farther in their inquiries that the police request. They might see what relation the parents sustain to the enforcement of law. A little introspective investigation of the home conditions might assist in fixing the cause for the reign of juvenile crime. The actions of the boys are merely the reflection of home conditions in most cases. When the boys wander the streets at night and form associations that lead to ways of crime, the boys alone are not to blame. Has a city which boasts of officials who make a joke of law and flaunts its wide-open disregard for statutes any right to complain if the boys, yes the girls too, disregard the law? Yes, San Francisco may with profit make a searching investigation of the conditions that the police might find. And then they might reflect on the old adage that "Chickens come home to roost." GOVERNMENT: ONE VIEW Henry David Thoreau, writing in 1849, said: "This American government—what is it but a tradition, though a recent one, endeavoring to transmit itself unimpaired to posterity, but each instant losing some of its integrity? "It has-not the vitality and force of a single living man; for a single man can bend it to his will. "It is a sort of wooden gun to the people themselves. But it is not the less necessary for this; for the people must have some complicated machinery or other, and hear its din, to satisfy that idea of government which they have." Governments, Thoreau contended, thus show how successfully men can be imposed on, even impose on themselves, for their own advantage.

Governments, Thoreau contended, thus show how successfully men can be imposed on, even impose on themselves, for their own advantage. "It is excellent, we must allow," he says. "Yet this government never of itself furthered any enterprise, but by the alacrity with which it got out of its way. "It does not keep the country free. It does not settle the west. (He was writing in 1849, remember.)" "It dose not educate. The character inherent in the American people has done all that has been accomplished; and it would have done somewhat more if the government had not sometimes gof in the way." For government is an expedient by which men would fail succeed in letting one another alone; and, as has been said, when it is most expedient, the governed are let alone by it."
