Dignity A Frozen Asset

President Hoover is a man of great dignity. So is
Prime Minister Ramsay Macdonald. But they appear
politically in vastly different environments.
Imagine such rough and tumble heckling of the
President of the United States as is occurring this
week in England. Imagine this from Hoover:
IF I were that man sitting there 1 would be
ashamed of the silly expression on my face and 1
would hold my tongue, lest the people look at
me-" Or
Nov you just listen to me and you'll improve,
You listen to yourselves, you'll deteriorate." Or
Don't talk nonsense, my dear lady" Or
Tell it to the teachersl'
Yet all those quotations are from Prime Min
lister MacDonald's appearance this week in Noting
hamshire.
Such a scene would be unthinkable in the United
States with the President as a speaker.
The fact is significant of what ais us, according
10 M. E. Tracy. He makes the point that Americans
have quit living" their politics, have quit feeling
deeply, that we have become too polite and too con-
ventionaL
I'VE can show enough vitality at football games"
writes Tracy, but when it comes to politics, how
bored we are!"
That's why, he declares, over two-thirds of the
eligible voters in England go to the polls and why so
comparatively few Americans vote; why, carrying the
idea farther, London had twenty-one murders last
year and New York 400.
Apathy toward government is our nations crown
ing trait. Widespread and righteous Indignation about
Teapot Dome was most conspicuous by its absence.
And that was symbolic.
But why the difference between The English temper
and CURSE Mostly, we believe, because OF our long
span of prosperity. While England was suffering we
got fat and contented.
And perhaps one of the beneficial by-products of
our present adversely will be a recharging of our
batteries. Maybe the ol0-fashioned torchlght parade,
with the deep political feeling that it typi1ed, will
be with us again.
In which event we will lose in dignity, but we will
gain in spirit and in our sense of individual re-
xnonsibiutv toward the, democracy in which we live.

Times Readers Voice Their Views

precariouS existence that they may
At one time we got very excited
over the Irish evictionS and miser-
les, but they were nothing in COM
parison with what we have here
today. If it goes on any longer, we
shall have the greatest homeless
drifting population Of any nation
on earth.
Why not stop this rush to make
home-loving people into drifting
nomads? 1t will do nobody any good
but the money-grasping sharp who
now has the richest picking of his
life. Why not stop it, at least for
a time, until we can visualize where
we are?
1t seems that it is so arranged
that every ten or twelve years, the
industrial population shall stand up
and be Invested of everything that
it might have gained and the prop
erty goes back to the owning class.
c. A. JOHNSON.
Ill North Alabama street.
Editor Times-There are a few
questions we farmers would like to
have answered. When wheat is 38
cents a busEel, what should a loaf
of bread be worth?
If there are forty pounds of flour
in a bushel and twenty-six loaves
of one and one-half pounds that
sell for 8 cents each. or $2.08, and
twenty pounds of bran and middlings
at SIPS, making $2.33 for the orig
inal sixty pounds of wheat for
which the farmer received 38 cents,
who gets the remainder, $1.85?
Again, if a gallon of whole milk
is worth 10 cents, what should a
dish of ice cream be worth?
If wool is worth Is cents a pound,
and five pounds are required for a
suit of clothes, what should the
price of an all-wool suit be?
If hides are worth 215 cents a
pound, what should a pair of shoes
be worth?
Is it business, fair play, or JUS
tice, when a state or township
builds a paved road suitable for
automobiles or team service, and
keeps it in repair, to allow vehicles
of many tons capacity to drive over
them with unlimited speed? The
writer weighed a truck load of corn
headed for Louisville, and the gross

Mother HELPED Him

DUPIN credits much Of his success
L in life to the influence of his
mother. In his autobiography he
speaks frequently of her.
He tells, for example, how when
he was quite young, she said to him,
My son, if you wish to go out into
the world about which you hear so
much, you must provide yourself
with another pair of eyes; the eyes
of reading and writing.
There is so much wonderful
knowledge and learning in the world
which you can not get unless you
can read and write.
knowledge is the golden Ladder
over which we climb to heaven,
knowledge is the light which illumi-
mates our path through this life
and leads to a future life Of ever
lasting glory"
Pupin says that his mother was
very pious, but that she did not
take the view of so many other
peasants that the discovery Of
science was contrary to religion.
He tells how when he was small
and would tell about something he
had read about the experiments of
Benjamin Franklin with lightning,
his father OIL one of his fathers
friends would say, What heresy
may this be that this impudent brat
is disclosing to us?"
He says, however, that his mother
would come to his rescue and point
out that there was nothing in the
Bible which specifically c~ontradicted
Franklin's views on lightning and
that they well might be true.
