Builders and Critics ‘
There are :1 great many people
who can pick flaws and faults.
I’cnplt,‘ of somewhat ordinary
ability can frequently take a
now], a musical composition, or a
pointing. and pick out the flaws
in it and do it with some degree
of correctness. But the same
folks could not themselves create
works of art that would compare
for it moment with those that they
pull to pieces.
The country also is full of good
crilii'nl ability, as respects politi-
(‘ill illlil social conditions. Local
communities are s p l c n d i d l y
equipped with critics. They can
llli‘li flows with great skill and
persistence.
But most of this flaw picking
(li'ws not get anywhere. It just
destroys, it tears down much that
l\' good along with the faults.
There are scores of people who
can find fault effectively, for one
who can go out and do something.
More builders are needed and
not so many critics. The critical
mpnvity seems to destroy capa-
city for doing tnings. It leads
inuuy people to adopt an attitude
of mental superiority, and they
iliwpisc things that do not reach
Ili‘l'l‘t'i'llilll. Xt“. I‘llng able to
produce perfection emsclvcs or
anywhere near it, they inst stand
l»_\' and detract from those who
:m- tr.\in;: to do some real and
Mllmiulllllil work.
llililclci's are often rather quiet
lu'itlllt' whose services frequently
or» not recognized for what they
.m- \l‘iil'lll. They are not much
i'wllPi'l'llt‘il whether they reach
perfection or not, but are filled
with zeal for achievement, and are
never satisfied unless they are
improving the conditions around
them. They are the people who
take hold and do the solid work
on committees and in societies,
who are always giving their time
to civic enterprises, who find their
reward in getting things done
rather than in hiring their superi-
or intelleets. More of them are
needed in the Norwnlks.

Reduction of the Debt
The national debt auhe close
of the present fiscal year is going
to be about $1,600,000,000 less
than it was when President Hard-
ing took oflice.
Much has been said by Demo-
cratic orators during the lasgcam-
paign to the effect that tho eco-
nomies which it was claimed the
Republican administration had
made, were illusory. But these
figures of the debt are something
that cannot be challenged.
’When the Harding administra—
tion took office, it found the coun-
try at the low point of an indus-
trial depression, largely caused,
by the mistakes of the previous
administration. The Harding
government had to contend with
a period when income was great-
ly reduced by the bad times pre-
vailing in the business world.
The results achieved have'been
splendid and due not merely to
the better times produced by
needed tariff changes, and by the
greater confidence which businc
men have felt in the governme
under the present heads, but there
has been constant pressure from
the heads of 'the government
upon the departments, that they
must conduct their operations in
the most thrifty manner. The
country is betting the benefit of
having business men of. the high-
est rank of ability in the big ad-
ministrative positions.
Not merely is this big 3 out
of the way, but the reduction of
the debt permits interest charges
to be saved. If the country will
only have patience with some of
the inevitable troubles resulting
from a war and from the mistakes
made during the war period, and
permit the same men or the same
type of men to handle the country
,_for the next few years, the gains
resulting ought to be sufficient
,‘i 'so that: a big slice can be. cut out
of the debt, The interest hinting:

In the past year our business men
have told Germany an average of
about. 25 million dollar-st worth of
goods (exports) a month.
This was more than twice as much
as we imported from Germany. How
is the difference being paid? Cer~
tnlnly not. in gold. In this and many
other ways the international bankers
reveal their belief that Germany?
credit is good. So maybe we shouldnt
get too discouraged about the Euro-
pean outlook.
_.____.——
FRANCE
rsnco is another country that for
mdhths has been buying about twice
as much from us as she has sold us.
We've been exporting to France
around 26 million douars' worth of
goods :1 month.. and importing less
than 13 millions a month from her.
In the 1921 depre ion. a big busi-
ness operator said: '- he banks are
so deep in the hole with me that the:
don't dare let me bust."

HEADACHE
Germany rounds up enough adding
machines to make ' up its yearly re-
port of government revenue and
l in .
Spiltdarlifnt more than it took in. Its
total revenue from taxation lucked
691 billion marks of being enough to
pay the one item of deficit on post-
omce and government railway ex-
penditure. According to which, they
are not in any danger of taxing them-
selves into the poorhouse.
COAL
Enough coal still underground
our country to last. no 6.033 years at
the rate we're using it. up now, says
it. 2. Virgin. editor of the Coal Trade
ltevlew. That's not counting Alaska
which has enough unmincd coal to
supply the states west of the Rockies
for 1,000 years.
In the face of this enormous sup-
ply. we have periodical coal
ages. a redlcilous par ox that can
be partly eliminatcdi householders
this summer will buy their con! sup-
ply for next winter. Summer prices
may save you considerable money.
for more than compound interest on
the investment.
SPORT
A Yankee sailor. ported recently at:
Odessa. Russia. went to a bank and
exchanged a 810,000 bill for a freight-
car of rubles. Now the bunk dis-
covers that the bill is phone-y. It. has
“specimen" printed in a corner. And
is one of samples circulated 40 years
ago in China to introduce paper
money there.
It's a rare day when anything that
isn't interesting comes over :‘.c ca-
bles from Europe.
CHINESE
The Chinese are taxed lighter than
any other people. says F. R. Eldridge.
one of Uncle Sam's Far Eastern ex-
ports.
The average Chinese pays only 60
taxes. in our money.
which compares with $60 a head in
our country for national taxation
alone. Still. day labor in China gets
only 15 cents a day. Figure it out
on s. work or labor basis. and the
Chinese are not so far behind us.
They have one real advantage,
though. Their total foreign and do-
mestic debt is only 900 million do)-
lsrs or $2.25, a bond. Ours must be
several hundred times.as much.

What. is the remedy for sucba con-
