There is nothing haphazard about the Wilbur
course He has studied the Indian discarded the old
government policies and substituted new ones, radical
ly different but likely to bring the desired re-

Wilbur says two things must be done. The older

One of the soundest OF all theo-
ries about art is that it is the wall of
one distressed soul to another, and
that on one who has not scar It's

That is almost invariably true,

nothing made much difference in

senator who has openly said to his colleagues You

This is corruption in broad daylight yet it is the
way that every tariff bill and almost every appropria-
lions bill has been passed in congress.
This kind of log rolling has existed in every parlia-

every state legislature.
1t Is brazen dishonesty but it probably will con-
tlnue so long as law makers made of common
