I How much money does this school I district spend on education? Who knows? These questions are not asked fori fun but merely to call attention to I the need of publishing regular 15-1 nancial statements about public af-1 fairs. The truth is that all agencies that spend public money, whether de rived from taxation or otherwise, J should make public in convenient! form the full details of its operation. Democratic self-government,- even I in representative form, will function best when citizens are thoroughly in formed as to the details of public! business. It is expecting too much! to ask people to be interested in I something about which they know nothing. THE FASTING DEAN It is little or none of our business what the very Rev. Israel Harding Noe, of Memphis, Tenn., eats, or whether the Episcopal clergyman continues the absolute fast that he expects will attest spiritual perfec tion and immortality The 46-year-old cleric lived on oranges and cashew nuts in 1936, on oranges alone in 1937 and, beginning January first, has wafer three times weekly. While he puts ice cubes in to his mouth to relieve the dryness of his throat, it is said, he expels the water from his mouth when the ice has melted. He is of the opinion that he is en tering a "new higher plane of spirit ual life," taking food from "the Father's life within." Moreover, he has "worked it out potentially" and knows that he can "experience it." So what? Simply this, don't be surprised to hear that the worthy man has entered the spiritual realm, through the door of natural death, unless he abandons his absolute fast. It will be a pity, no doubt, but It will be. JAP VICTORY DANGEROUS The Japanese military machine continues to achieve strategic victo ries but the embittered Chinese with draw deeper into the recesses of their country aixi turn a deaf ear to talk of peace. Premier Konoye, it is reported, has advised Japanese leaders that the failure to bring China to terms has created an increasingly grave situation, forcing the Japanese gov ernment to resort to another course of a serious nature. So far, expla nation of his remarks has not been offered. After six months of fighting the Japanese army is busily engaged on extended fronts and the "incident" threatens to become a disaster. The entire Japanese economic and social set-up demanded a quick decision but a long contest seems assured and an imperial conference, the first in twenty-four years, is called to chart the course of the island empire. Already the economic effects of the war have been profound in Ja pan. Th financial strain of prolong ed fighting may prove too much. No one knows how long the Chinese will last but if they can keep fighting for as much as two years they may bring about the downfall of their enemy. Japan, proudly determined to rule Asia, may be so weakened by the guerilla warfare of the Chinese that she will be unable to resist the im position of terms by western nations when the settlement is made. In fact, even now, the future of Japan depends upon the tolerance of Great Britain and the United States. These two nations, by using economic wea pons, could probably wreck the Jap anese program and impoverish the Japanese people.
