SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 1922 THE NEXT WAR Lloyd George says that the next war is "going to be the worst war of all," and this just at the time when there is apparently an earn- est attempt on the part of nations to make sure that there will be the British empire and the | United States are reducing arma- ments, and allows the inference to be drawn that other nations are not following that excellent ex- ample in the way that they should. "It is difficult," he says, "for a nation to remain defenseless while others are preparing for war." Of course it is. It is more than | difficult, it is foolhardy. But that is not the plan that was worked | out at the disarmament confer- ence, nor was it the thought of anybody who partook in the de- liberations at Washington. It is one thing to agree to regulate the military and naval organizations of all countries and quite another to sit quietly by, with eyes closed in slumber, dreaming of peace, take advantage of the opportunity to prepare for war. One suspects that the British Premier knows that he is not giv- ing to his public quite the correct view of the policy of disarmament. One suspects that he is conscious of a deliberate play upon the nerves of a people that has for long generations been bred in the belief that the strength of the British navy must be without question greater than that of any other country. If there is to be such discrediting of the work of the disarmament conference, there will be little to expect but a return to the building: of ships and the arming of men, making ready for another such terrible war as we have so recently ex- perienced. I OU -- The father of a mischievous and disobedient three-year-old boy who lied about the child's age in an effort to have him admitted to a kindergarten, got what was coming to him when the young- ster gave his true age with the added information that he had been told to say he was four. One wonders if such a father would recognize his own culpability in the matter or would take it out of his offspring when he got him home. Parents who seek to shift the responsibility of disciplining their one or two obstreperous children to a teacher who may have forty-nine others just like them to claim her attention, can- not be said to have a well thought out program for training up a child in the way he should go. RR ----,e :-: st noi™ One Illinois automobile manu- facturing firm doubled its work- ing force during the month of May, according to the labor re- view of the Illinois Manufactur- ers' association. There were 50,- 000 more workers employed in Il- linois in May than in April, the estimate being made from the monthly report of 980 employers of the state. Statistics from labor agencies show that in May there were 105 applicants for every 100 jobs compared with 141 in April and 220 for each 100 positions of- fered a year ago. Builders and contractors employed an increase of 20.1 per cent during May, fol- lowing an 81.1 per cent increase of workers in April. The build- ing boom shows no signs of abat- ing, it is said. Increases in em- ployment by manufacturers of farm machinery, steel, shoes and clothing are reported. All of which would have seemed strange reading six or seven months ago when the unemployment specter was frightening American com- placency out of its wits and gov- ernment measures were taken to combat what seemed to be a seri- ous menace. Industry appears to have been cured quickly of its deadly wound administered by post-war depression. Unemploy- ment has well nigh disappeared from the language and plans of business of today. --_-- The one-piece bathing suit oc- cupies more than its share of the spotlight at this time of the year. Which is exactly what some of its adherents want--and therein lies the One-piece argument. suits are the only sensible gar- ments for swimming, but they are not necessary for the "beach vamp" who never gets within a block of the water. Only a few years ago the fair swimmer had to plow her way through the wa- ter impeded by a multiplicity of skirts, opaque outer garments, stockings and shoes. There was less of "beach vamping" in those days. Now that the censors have relented a little as to nautical re- quirements, the garment designed to aid the swimmer has been cast | into disrepute by the non-swim- sciences by allowing the swim- mer to wear swimming togs and requiring the beach lorelei to wear vestments a little more con- ventional. A A. Enemies of the proposed Re- publican tariff would do well to consider a typical case represent- ing the difference in the cost of labor in Europe and in the United States. A company with factories in this country and Germany pays mechanics $4 a week in Berlin to do the same kind of work for which it pays $34 a week in New mer, whose ideas are probably York. Can American labor com- less nautical than naughty. Per- [pete with that of foreign countries haps the censors might solve the unless it is protected by an ade- problem and salve their con- quate tariff? Coupe, $1095 Sedan, $1345 f.o0.b.

N designing these two new Gardner models we have had a very definite purpose in mind --to give the public closed car service at a moderate price, with all the little luxuries, and the durability ana performance qualities of the high-priced motor coach. In both cars style and utility have been happily combined with sturdiness of construction and real value all the way through. Both cars combine the quality features and distinctive appearance that have made the Gardner car the outstanding sales success of the year. GARDNE EVANSTON BRANCH PHONE EVANSTON 6975 1008 DAVIS STREET
