MUSSOLINPS WAY

Mussolini, according to a dispatch
to the New York "Times," has 10000
secret police doing detective work to
head off anti-Fascist developments.
This underground army appears to be
modelled on the Okrana of czarist
Russia, and certainly works in the
same way.
1t is reported to pervade all ranks,
from university circles and society
'swells" to day laborers. The men
against whom it files reports are
arrested and imprisoned without
trial Sometimes their families are
told that the arrested member is dead.
Professor Renzi, head of the chair
of philosophy at one of the chief uni
versities in Italy, was arrested re-
Gently, with all his family. The other
members of his household were re-
leased, but Renzi was reported dead.
1t may be true, though he was in
excellent health when taken into
custody.
Employers are held responsible if
the government discovers that anti
Fascist doctrines have infected
their working forces.
Wouldn't you just love to live un-
der a government like that?
And how firmly is the Fascist re-
gime seated if it needs 10000 spies
to keep it in the saddle labor.

THE RED CROSS CALLS

The American Red Cross has issued
an appeal to the nation at large for
S1O.000,OOO to relieve distress in the
drought-stricken areas. Wage earn
ers are always ready to respond to
calls for the relief of distressed but,
coming at this time when there is SO
much local unemployment and when
the workers have about all they can
do, and more, caring for their own,
their relatives, friends and fellow
workers, the Press is frank to state
that much response to outside calls
from Hamilton's workers cannot be
looked for. However, there are many
wealthy persons in Hamilton, and
who have given generously to the
local unemployment cause and who
feel they have given all that is ex-
pected of them, but who can well
afford to give to other worthy causes
too, it is hoped that they will hear
the call of the Red Cross and give
here also.

DEPRESSION EXPLAINABLE

The present industrial depression
can not be explained or excused by
false reasoning. This makes it unique
in the nations history.
It's cause is lack of purchasing
power. Theorists may bubble over
the distinction between overproduc-
ton and underproduction, but no
practical person denies that wage
workers have not the money to buy
Men are discarding all reasons for
the depression save one-that if COM
modities can't be bought, the indus
trial machine cannot be operated and
unemployment results.
1t seems unnecessary to state this
self-evident fact.
1t is no longer possible to detract
public thought This, however, has
been done, but the time has passed
when workers are interested in red
herrings that lead into blind alleys.
Organized labor's high wage and
shorter hour principles were never so
| generally accepted If the nation
would end depression these must be
applied.
The application of these principles
will turn unemployed into producers
and non-spenders into buyers and
consumers.
Well wishes and hope will not
establish these principles-there must
be will-to-do behind kindly senti-
ment.
The low-wage, long-hour employer,
nor the corporation manager who
seeks immediate dividends, will not
act out of the goodness of their
hearts. They must be forced to change
by the power of organized labor and
the resistless public opinion it devel-
ops.
Citizens in other groups appreciate
the social danger of lnechanization
policies and stabilization systems
that enlarge the unemployed army
and lower wages for those who are
retained. This system will eventually
harm the very men who temporarily
profit.

OF thousand new manners and

And a boy and maid laugh a lot,

DIVIDENDS
Stayed Up in Canada As
PayrOlls We're Cut

Montreal (ILNS)-While it is esti-
mated that the aggregate payroll in
Canada during 1880 was nearly 20
per cent less than in 1929, the bigger
corporations managed to do pretty
well for their shareholders. Accord
ing to compilation made by the
Financial Post, covering 450 leading
Canadian companies whose securities
figure on the stock exchanges, $50
paid dividends during 1880 as high as
in 1929, while AZ paid higher divi-
dends per share. Thirty eight COM
panies passed dividends, while six
others reduced dividends.
"It is, however, cheering and en-
tightening" says the Financial Post,
''to find that this rather unpleasant
cloud has it's silver lining, consisting
in the fact that no less than "a stocks

dividend-payers, or, as in the case of
three of these, have resumed paying

Proving Truth of Adage
About That Last Laugh

Back In 1859 Thoreau picked up a
story at Plymouth that had to do with
q certain General Winslow. 1t seems
that Winslow was member of a party
of Plymouth gentlemen who rode off
by the shore for "high time" at
the Gurnet. and who had it.
When they were ready to return
they found that General Winsl0w was
sound asleep on the ground, and 1t
occurred to them that 1t would be an
excellent joke to leave him there. AS
they rode along homeward they
amused themselves by conjecturing
what he would do when he awOke and
found himself alone at that distance.
In due time he did awaken and re-
allied the situation. Being still some
what excited by the wine he had
drunk, he found his horse and rode
along the shore In the opposite d.
rection from the shore road to Ply
mouth, to the Saquish hotels
From there to Plymouth Rock is
bay; 1t was low tide, and Winslow
waded his horse as far as the bea-
con north of the channel at the en-
trance to Plymouth harbor. Then he
boldly swan the animal to the end
Of Plymouth beach, about half
mile farther, notwithstanding
strong current; and having landed
safely, he whipped up and reached
town, having come only about eight
miles.
He had ample time to warm and dry
himself at the tavern before his COM
panions, who had to ride 20 miles
through Marshfield and Duxbury, ar
rived.
When they found him sitting by the
tavern freside they thought 1t was
his ghost.-Brockton Enterprise.
Helium Production
The production Of helium from nat
ural gas in the United States for fill
ing balloons and airships originated
in the United States bureau of mines
in the spring of 1917 just after this
country entered the World war He
lium had been discovered as con-
stituent Of natural gas in 1905 at the
University Of Kansas by Professor
Cady and Doctor Mcfarland. 1t had
been discovered in mineral substances
by Sir William Ramsay as far back
as 1895, and its properties were then
studied sufficiently to demonstrate
that IL 1t could be obtained In suffi-
cient quantity it would prove the
ideal gas for balloons and airships
on account of it's extreme lightness
and absolute inertneSS.

Odd SMALLPOX Cure

voltaire, back in 1928, suffered from
smallpox. He recovered after being
in bed q month. To the father of a
woman who was to play great part
In his life in the following 16 years,
he made this optimistic report of the
remedy which he is confident alone
made possible his quick recovery.
Smallpox is, in simple form,
merely the blood Kidding itself of its
impurities, and positively paves the
way to more vigorous health.

LAW PROTECTS LOW WAGES

The A. F. of L. executive council
will urge federal legislation that
compels government contractors to
recognize prevailing wages and
standard work conditions. President
Hoover, last December, called for such
recognition. VIM. Green, president of
the A. F. of L., submitted to the chief
executive a list of government con-
tractors who ignore this position.
Secretary of Labor Doak, speak
ing for the president, informs the
A. F. of L. official that it is impos-
sible to enforce prevailing wages on
government work because of a deci-
sion by the federal controller.
That official ruled that conditional
requirements can not be included in
such contracts, as the law calls for
responsible" bidders.
A responsible" bidder is consider
ed one who can secure bonds to guar
antee that he will complete the job.
Any bonding company will back a
successful bidder on government
work.
The controllers decision can be
annulled by changing the law that
protects low wages.
Congress should Immediately
amend this statute that legalizes
social degradation.

Presidential Office Vacant

Inasmuch as the term Of the actual
President expires at midnight March
3, and 1t is the custom for the incom-
ing Chief Executive to take the oath
of office at midnight on March 4, there
is, strictly speaking, 12-hour period
when the country Is without a Presi-
dent. The law Is silent as regards the
hour when the President shall take
the oath Of Office, and it has been a
matter Of personal convenience. In
the event Of a pressing emergency
there is nothing to prevent the incom-
ing official being sworn in during the
first hour Of the 4th of March, al
though this has never been done.

Old English Castle

Lumley castle, near Chester-le-
Street, England, 1t Is thought can es-
tablish it's claim to be the oldest in
habited castle in the two counties of
Northumberland and Durham. 1t was
originally built as manor house about
933, and continued as such for about
four centuries. In the Fourteenth
century Sir Ralph Lumley had the
castle remodeled by building the foul
corner towers or keeps and connect
ing the building on all sides but the
west. The castle has been in contin-
uous occupation of the Lumley family
ever since its original erection in the
days of the Saxon kings.
