Some interesting lights on racial
superiority" or the claim of it
have been brought out in recent dis
cussions in Hawaii.
The Emperor Chen Lung, reject
ing a proposal Of the English king
for commerce between their nations,
on the ground that China had every
thing it needed, congratulated King
George on his becoming humility
and closed with the salutation, "fear
and tremble"
The Tongan islanders have a ira
dition that God made the Tongan
first, the pig next, and the white
man last.
If there have been certain great
men in the outside world-the Ton
gans have heard ofGeorge Wash
ington and Napoleon-these, be-
cause they We're great, must have
been shipwrecked Tongans.
The Greeks called the outsiders
"barbarians," and the Jews We're
the chosen people"
Just now it is the "nordics" who
claim superiority, because they hap
pen to fill, in this generation, the
place held in earlier generations BY
other peoples. The sense of superb
GRITTY is a form of racial egotism.

ELECTINC WIDOWS is
NOT MODERNISM"

One more Congressional widow
has been elected to fill the place
made vacant by her husbands
death.
The sentiment which leads to
such a choice is natural, and, for
tunately, in most cases, the lady
had been active enough in her hus-
bands career to indicate her COM
potency. But it is an old-fashioned,
not q "modern" sentiment.
Whoever else may approve, it the
women's party and other feminist
organizations should protest. The
sentiment, by their standards, be-
longs to the masculine and feudal
type.
1t represents, not women's right
to stand on their own merits, but
women's title to the protective chiv-
airy Of the stronger" sex.
1t is a mans notion of what he
wants women to want. Tt belongs TO
the pre-suffrage age. These wom-
en- represent, not themselves or their
constituents, but their husbands
memories.
1t is fortunate that they have usu-
ally done well. But this is not FEM
inism.
