ARE WE TO TAKE TURN ABOUT? While plans are going ahead for the disarmament conference to be held under the direction of the Council of the League of Nations wo learn that nations-/of the would are building big ger battleships than ever before. The United States is ready to spend $50.- 000 in preparation for the prepara tory conference of the disarmament conference ami other nations are spending money for the same purpose. And at the same time they are spend ing millions fofr war equipment. The greatest battleship ever built, we're told, has just been launched by Great Britain. It is the Nelson, built at a cost of $35,000,000 and re quiring $2,000,000 annually for up k eel). What will the rest of the nations of tfie world do? If they follow the amt-worn custom they will immedi ately bog : n work on a ship bigger than the Nelson. Heretofore every time one of the larger nations has builty a ship the oflier larger nations try to go one better. Maybe Japan, the United States. Germany or Russia will start work on a ship to cost $50,- 000.000. /■ This is the sort of thing the world is trying to stop, or at least its the sort of thing we should be trying to stop. If Great Britain gets a navy that is more powerful than the nav ies of the other nations fear is .arous ed. It is the same with any other na tion. We have tried the system for ag»*s. why not start on something else? The arms policy has failed. It has never stopped war and never will. It costs the people mUKlous of dollars annual ly and eventually leads to nobbing but war. MUST TAKE THEIR MEDICINE. It was no easy thing, we can easily believe, for Governor McLean to re fuse to parole or pardon the Asheville A inob^meiubers. In this case, perhaps more pressure, bad been brought to bear than in any other of the cases facing the Govern or. All sorts of petitions were pre sented; all kinds of people ipade all' kinds of pleas. Governor Mclxcan sent Pardon Commissioner Sink to Ashe ville to make an investigation and when the cotniuissioner recommended that the men finish their ser.tenc s the Governor accepted his report. . We feel that the majority of tire people will agree with and applaud the Governor's decision. They may be tnitigating c : rcuiustauces, but just the Kame these men committed a serious crime and if we are to prevent such crimes in the future we must show u determination to let tsf k sentences stand. It hurts , tin* courts -for such men t-o be freed/ They were given n fair trial* tueii of their own county heard tile evidence and on this evi dence they wore oonvictcd. O Prisoners ju jails are due protec tion and they will get that protection h only when the public knows the law , will give it to them. If these men were turned loose it might encourage people in some other section to take the taw into their own hands. It is the certainty of the law rath er than the severity of the law that i really counts, we admit, but these , mob members have not been given se vere sentences. We might as well our courthouses down if we are to free everyone who can offer petitions and pleas. AMERICA'S LARGEST CITIES.
