NAVY RADIO PROFITS

Ore government service Is max

mission OF commercial messages
than the operation of the stations

PROGRAM FOR A BETTER
WORLD

Glenn FRANK, eQftOf OF TIC Zen
fury Magazine, says the world
needs a great spiritual and intel
lectual leader to blaze the way to
a finer civilization. He submits
these suggestions as to the main
things needed:
/. Political nationahsm," by
which he means "flag-flapping
flapdoodle, must give. way to
cultural nationalisin" - intelli-
gent patriotism, without cheap
ness or arrogance.
2. Along with this finer ma
tionalisn of the spirit there Must
be economic internationalism.
3. Politics must be rational
led with the bunk and catch
words eliminated and government
made scientific and biisinesslike.
4. Autocratic industry must be
made democratic.
5. Business must be liberal
led the only sound business be-
ing sound socially.
6. Education must be practi-
cal, making the student "at home in
the world" -
I. Religion must be as much, al
home in the office as in the cathe-
dral.
s. The race mist be we'll bred,
but without "the eugenics of the
barnyard."
..,> Here'is a rather large contract,
calling indeed for a great leader
if the world is to be converted TO
it all at once. But great transit
tons are seldom sudden, and a
super,nan may not be essential.
The world is gaining HOW, in
all these directions. in spite OF
pessimistic statements that it is
going to the devil. Society as a
whole, not led by one man but
urged on gently by ten thousand
inconspicuous men and women Of
insight and faith, may be its own
savior.
The Kingdom of Heaven, if it
ever comes on this earth, may
come so gradually and naturally
that people will hardly realize its
arrival

A "ToY CLEARING H0USE"

4 TOY Clearing House has
been opened i'll one OF the big
feities as pre-Christmas activity.
Headquarters are established in ali
accessible downtown location.
Here all children are urged to
bring discarded and outgrown
p1aythings. A force OF workers
| will repair such articles as need il
and from the clearing house OH
Christmas Eve the reiuvenated
treasures will be distributed among
children who otherwise would
| have no Christmas gifts.
There is something very appeal
ing about the plan. 1t encour-
ages thoughfulness and unselhsh-
ness. 1t will afford JOY to little
folks who give and who receive.
1t has also another valuable fea-
ture. 1t teaches every child who
contributes from his possessions
the lesson of passing things along
which can be enjoyed by others in
stead of boarding them uselessly
for himself He learns as he
shares that even the most beloved
possession, if it no longer serves
Its original purpose, is fifty cher
ished when it is offered for SER
vice somewhere else.
A generation trained to such a
viewpoint not only will have gain
ed greatly in practical generosity.

it of senseless accumulation of I'M
used articles which has logged the
visiorland cluttered the households
OF its ancestors for generations.
