Irish Ma jori ties
Mrs. Terence Mac'Swiney, back in America for Irish Republic
propaganda, is telling the public:
“It is safe to say that 90 per cen

the Black and Tan."
This statement is
t. of the Irish people are with
Free Staters than ever fought
hard to reconcile with facts regarding the
Irish situation as given from other sources. The Free-State govem-
ment, though hard pressed, is certainly functioning. And the last
election gave the Free State candidates good majorities.
The statement is also hard to reconcile with knowledge of Irish
character. Since when has it been possible for one Irishman out
of every ten to rule the other nine without their consent?
Taxing The Road _ Breakers
One of the state legislatures that seemed about to fall in with
and levy a tax on gasoline has changd its mind
the current tendency
r heavy tax on motor
trucks and busses,
and the passenger capacity of the latter. At the same time these
carriers are placed under the authority of the public utilities com-
mission.
The etate is to use 50 per cent. of the receipts of road repair
work in general and give the other 50 per cent. to the localities in
which the busses and trucks operate to use on their own roads.
There will be a good deal of kicking from the people afiected, as
a matter of course, but the average citizen will probably pronounce
this tax as fair as any special tax on motor vehicles could very
well be made. It has the essential justice of putting the heaviest
tay on the vehicles that do most to destroy the roads and benefit
most. from the roads, and taxes them in proportion to their capacity
for haulage and destruction. Everybody knows that automobiles,
with their pneumatic tires, do little harm to road paving, and actually
improve some kinds of roads instead of making them worse.
Freight transportation diverted, in ever-increasing volume, from
the railroads to the highways, cannot expect to escape altogether the
right-of—way costs it was formerly subjected to, or to wear out public
roads, improved at great expense, without paying its proper share
of the expense.

No Facism Here
The ”Sons of Italy,” an Italian-American order with a mem-
bership of 250,000, has wisely declared itseli against all efiofis to:
introduce the new Italian Fascism into this country.
The members are in favor of the Fascisti movement for Italy,
they say, because there is needed in order to stamp out radicalism
and save Italy from Bolshevists. But here they find no place for it.:
They insist on allegiance to America only, and dismiss Fascism as
.a.milit-ary movement" which in America “ would simply serve to
dwide citizens of Italian origin and foment discord.”
The word Italian-born citizens should have considerable anthem;
ity in this matter, among those possessing less first-hand knowledge
of the nature and aims of the ruthless party to win control of Italy.
It is not necessary in the United States to have a political revolution
engineered by one kind of lawless force, in order to suppress lawless,
force of another kind. This is a land of law.
It is also a land of liberty—a fact ignored b ‘7

e littlegt and softest things:
And th re is a light in my true love's eyes
Which only such labor brings:
And I watch her sewing. and in my heart
Is the pride of a. dozen kings.
She's sewing on little garments
And as she sews she dreams.
Filled with a vision of joy and hope.
Thrilled with her plans and schemes.
"And the light that was never on sea or land
Over her features gleams.
She's sewing on little garments
And the day of her trial is near.
Yet all her mood is the mood of joy
And never a htnt of fear:
Oh. wife, may it all go well with you.
