"A Magazine by Jay Franklin, the ex-
tfenlely critical and iconoclastic Wash

common sense and observation-disclosures than

Franklin points out something that ev-
eryone knows = that the depression is
highly painful and trying experience.
Then, reminding us that our highbroW
writer's have spent the past decade call
ing the average American colossal
dumbbell, he adds:
You'd expect bunch of morons like
the American people to turn in riot call,
barbecue their politicians and take the
bankers for ride. But they didn't In
the worst panic of our national history
we've had no Coxey's army, no big riots,
no big strikes and no martial law.
'The American people has kept its tenn

out of the panicky 100-per cent patriots
who have acted as though high wages
were all that stood between the country
and bloody revolution. The American
people may be foolish, but they don't act
like fools in an emergency
With minor exception or two, the
gentleman is right. We have bad coal

textile trade has had labor troubles here

statement holds good. The nation has

trouble Six million men have lost their

has been made has been the mild sugges-
ton that the federal government might

many people in the last few years.
The complaint, in fact, has been voiced
before. Supposedly educated young men
and women have turned out to be pitt
ably ignorant, not only about the arts
and sciences but about such elementary
subjects as grammar, spelling, geography
and history Never, indeed have the at

versities been called into question as Of

1t is, of course, as the Carnegie Found
alton remarks, distressing to find college
graduates who do not know the meaning
of such words as inert "lenient" and
"immerse," and who think that "deeliv-
ity" and climate mean the same thing;
but while we must agree that such per-
son is hardly educated it would be a mis-
take to think that education consists
simply, or even chiefly, of the amassing
of great store Of facts.

1t is not supposed to make of him store

is not necessarily walking encyclopedia.
The one serious criticism that has been
made of higher education in America is
that it too often fails in lust this respect
it stuffs students with facts and does
not show them the Importance Of devel-
