Washington gets entirely too much
attention.
In his Memorial Day address the
President dwelt upon the Importance
OF watching local government more
and national government less. This
Is all very interesting, and to some
extent it is sage advice.
But it is possible to give WASH
ington too much leeway. It is pos
sible to favor Washington with too
much absent treatment.
When intelligent Americans see
what is happening to the Federal
Trade Commission, with its new
secrecy program, it is inclined to
think that perhaps there is such a
thing as letting Washington alone too
much.
When those same Americans see
what is happening to the tariff COM
mission, they think perhaps it is pos
sible to give Washington too much
of the road.
Americans who believe in democ-
racy do not want the Federal Govern
ment to become an overlordship of
bureaus. They do not want a mas
sive bureaucracy on the Potomac
But they do want efficient and honest
government suitable to the civiliza-
tion in which we live. able to protect
the people against the iniquities Incl
dent to modern industrial and politi-
cal organization. And they know that
somebody besides professional poll

We are now experiencing an I'M
happy swing from freedom and high
ideals to intellectual slavery and sor-
didness.
The zeal Of the bigot and the op-
preston of the intolerant reaches a
high pitch. Religious freedom is de-
MED. Reversions to fanaticism are
threatened. Heresy hunters are
eagerly alert. The spirit of the fag-
got and the rope is shown in wide
spread places.
Our national pendulum has swung
far from the high point of enthusi-
asm and patriotism of the DAYS of
1917 and 1918. The resurgency dates
from the days of the immolation Of
ideals Of Woodrow Wilson on the
altar Of political greed, trickery and
ambition.
We have passed through a period
of most shameless bribery and graft
and corruption in high places. We
