A visitor to a mountain school, after prodding an unhappy little boy about various matters, asketLhim if he knew the Ten Commandments. The boy said he did not.

The year Anno Domini 1924 and of the Independence of the United States of America the one hundred and forty-ninth will be an interesting and exciting twelve months. One does not have to be the seventh, son of a seventh son to prophesy that with entire confidence. But the prophet who ventures further is likely soon to be without honor abroad as well as In his own country. Suppose Uncle Sam had a Department of Prophecy at Washington or a United States Commission Of Prophets or something of the kind. And suppose it was the function of said department or? commission on January 1 of each year accurately^ to foretell the events of the coming twelve months, at home and abroad. Well, the cabinet member at the head of thst department or the chairman of the commission or whoever was the boss prophet responsible for the forecast would be walking the floor just about now with dropq of agony on bis brow, wouldn't he? He would. And if he were a wise prophet, wouldn't he drop everything, look at the office door and put up a sign: i..-A" •/•>•'••••• *;Wi Ooae t» th« tall HmtMNVt Ctaaed for npalwr . .r LiL- _ . • He would. For a wise prophet would know that what was needed in that office was not prophets, but puzzle experts. For all the world, at home and abroad,. would appear to be one vast puzzle made up of smaller ones and still smaller ones ad Infinitum. Yes; what Is wanted are puzzle experts with the ability to unscramble scrambled eggs. If a world of scrambled eggs can be Imagined, It to this well-known sad justly-fatuous Earth at the beginning of 1924. There Is, of course, plenty and to spare of people who think they know all about this scrambled world and believe they ara able to unscramble It No less than 22,165 people applied for the $100/100 offered by Edward W. Bok for the best "practicable plan by which the United States may co-operate with other aatleoa to achieve and preserve the peace of the world." Since this Is a free-for-all contest, these self-constituted experts represent all kinds of men and women; the statesman with experience In international- affairs; the financier in touch with the world's money markets; the journalist, with trained power of world-wide observation; the peace-loving woman to whom war la a crime; the patriotic mother who gives her aons to ths nation in its time of need; the Idealist; the dreamer-- the variety among the applicants for the money is as great as that among their plana. To many--at least in theory as patriotic, as able, as experienced--enduring world peace seems an Iridescent dream, as Senator Ingalls of the vitriolic tongue said of honesty in political It would be wrong, nevertheless, te ridicule either the plan, of1 the contestants. Both should be commended. The plan affords the atmosphere in which truth and right are to be found; skepticism and cynicism do not. Health and honesty are the normal state of man and his desire ts toward peace. It Is not impossible that nations may be Induced to think and feel as does the Individual citizen. The international discussion that is silre to follow the announcement of the winning plan should, prove a valuable education to those who Tea sincerely and intelligently follow It Those, for our New Year 365Days Ahead the United States be held responsible for the peace of the world? Is It for the best Interests of the . American people that the United Statea should •Wter Actively into International politics?- Patriotic, able and influential Americana hotd diametrically opposite views on these subjects, as on every one of the subjects of the many puzzles within the vast world-wide puzzle. One American statesman says; > , • . We turned our backs upon oar associate* refused to bear any responsible part in the admin* istration of peace or the firm and permanent establishment of the results of the war won at so terrlbla a cost of life and treasure, and withdrew Into a Sullen and selfish Isolation which lo deeply IgnobMh ^Saeauis manifestly -owardly and dishonorable. • Another American statesman--of the same pottth -Ml party--says In answer: 1 deny that America played *a tcnoble port b«* < fore, during or since tt>o wadr. 1 assert the --Malt pese of history ever written Is the story of Aanerlca's part, before, during and since the war. Much is said and written in favor of "hands across the sea"--a union of America and Great Britain that shsll tell all the rest of the world ta be good snd see that it does behave. It Is Interesting to note in this connection that Russia Has' a dictator, Lenin, who says that when the Reds get the upper hand the bourgeoisie of America Will pay a heavy price. Turkey has a dictator, lfustaplia Kemal Pasha, who is charged with having broken every promise of good behavior and every guarantee to American missionaries and to the remnants of Christians. Spain has a dictator, Bivera, whose ambition is to unite Spain and Latl» America in a confederacy hostile to the United 8tates. Italy has a dictator, Mussolini, who declares that the "payment of reparations belongs la the domain of mythology" and has a chip on his Shoulder for the whole world. IKot a single one of these four dictators has any adequate understanding of the Ideala of the Bn&> llsfc-speaking nations. Not a single one of theaa four dictators cares a red cent for tbe (deals Of the English-speaking nations. Five years ago President Wilson read to s joint Ion of the houses of the American congress terms of the armlstlce whlch had brought the forid war to an iariL Be said, among atfiaar things: And more " m that--much more than that IHis been accomplished. The great nations wblofe associated themselves to destroy it have now definitely united in the common purpose to set up such a peace ss will satisfy the longing of the whole world for disinterested Justice, embodied in settlements which are based upon something much better and much mere Irsting ths the selfish competitive Interests of powerful states. There Is no longer conjecture as te tbe objeeta tbe victors have In mind. They have a mind In the latter, not only, but a beart also. Their avowed ud concerted purpoie Is to satisfy and protect the weak as well a u> accord their just rights to the Strong "Europe is completely mad." says Gerard, f«*. ' Jaar ambassador to Germany, "with no difference except in degree between England. France and Germany." This inevitably suggests the story of the old Quaker who said to his wife: "All the world Is queer except me and thee and sometimes 1 think thee Is a little queer." llr. Gerard may be right; certainly no one caa prove him wrong. But it only adda to the puzzlement of the puzzle Boy. page Ur. Secretary .L L--- "V . .. Tnruugn WnJJrpSs. TH§ WOflll COUfl wi the child labor amendment have right ot way. according to the Joint committee. In the meantime, Mrs. O. H. P. Belmont, presl* , dent of the National Woman's party, Is predict*»» tag a third party in 1924--with a woman candidate for president--in case neither of the major parties receives the equal rights amendment with favor. Boy, page Mr. Prophet again 1 lfrs. Belmont and her cohorts will have to hurry things or they will find themselves the fourth party, instead of the third. For the call for a nominating convention in May has gone forth and its keynote Is the "abolishment of special privilege." By "special privilege" is meant "the unjust economic advantage by possession of which a small group controls our national resources, transportation, industry and credit, stifles competition, prevents opportunity for development of . all, and thus dctates conditions under which we "DANDELION BUTTER COLOR" . Forged Certificates, r^r^1 The forging of Uruguayan rinttiirallzation certificates, to enable Europeans to enter the United States as Uruguayans, has been disclosed. The Uruguayan law requires a residence of five years.before citizenship papers are, granted an immigrant. Certificates were obtained In great numbers by false declarations of witnesses who apparently were members of a strong organization which has ramifications in Argentina and Brazil. r iv sr.: Worii live." v Here's a real job for the pussie expert Who will head this party? How la this "special privilege" to be abolished? How is this "small group" to be Identified? And what will be done to them for "dictating the conditions under which we live?" Anyway, they should not be boiled In oli or anything like that, for on the whole the conditions under which we live might be worse. If 85.000 of us want to see a prize fight and are willing to pay something like a million and a quarter dollars for J the privilege, they let us. They let us own about ] 14,000,000 motor vehicles and burn all the gasoline we want to pay for. They let us crowd the movies and make the high-fare railroad trains run In seer tlons. They offer no objection when we increa»4 deports In savings hanks by $500,000,000, running the total up to seventeen billion. They have al* Towed the establishment of fifteen new working* men's banks in ihe last three years with resource* of $45,000,000. They are letting workingmen In* vest millions In tbe business of their employer^ They allowed workingmen last year to Bend bad $400,000,000 to friends and relatives in Europe Why, they even-allow the women of the country, to spend a million and a half on hair nets. So down with this special privilege that so control^ our Industry and credit and dictates these rigor* ous conditions of existence! Here Is one thing which might be a puzzle, but U| not: Approximately 50,000 of California's Jap* anese are planning to migrate eastward or return to Japan, as a result of the United States Su? preme court's declslofi upholding the state's alien land laws. Nearly a million and a half of the richest agricultural lands of the state, now leased to Japanese, must be returned to white owners* It is a hea' > blow to the Japanese. Of California's enormous vegetable and fruit industry, more than; 80 per cent has bet n for ten years cont-oiled by Japanese. Naturally the Japanese government^ does not like this; the Japanese press reflects lts| feelings and those of the Japanese people. Bat whatever Japan may do about this wholesale ban-' Ishment of her nationals there will be no "Yellow Peril" in 1924 or for many years to come. Theoretically, of course, on New Year's Day all the world is going to swear off. turn ovejr a new leaf, and make good resolutions and live up to them. Everybody Is going to pay bis debts, quit quarreling with his neighbors and act like a gentleman. In theory 1024 will begin business with human nature reformed and the Golden Rule In fall operation. And as with men, so with nations. It should be so. Else the Grim Reaper may find ns unprepared. "In the midst of life we are in death." A few months .sgo the kindly gentleman and sincere patriot at the head of this great nation was alive and well.
