Celebration to Honor
Garfield Is Urged
To the Editor Of The star:

To the Editor OF The Star:
may not be the first to make the
suggestion, but make 1t here and now,
that there should be q celebration m
this city and elsewhere in the Unit ed
States Of the Tooth birthday anniver-
sary of the twentieth President OF the
United States, James A. Garfield.
He was born near Cleveland Ohio, on
November 10, 1881, so that only few
weeks remain in which to stage the
celebration, in which Washington
should be particularly interested, as it
was here. at the old railway depot ct
Sixth and B streets on July 2, 1881. a
little over half century ago. that he
received his death blow at the hands
OF the assassin Guiteau. to pass away
at Elberon. N. j.. on the 10Th Of
anniversary Of his death thus occurs
during this month and might be COM
memorated in some manner here and
at Elberon.
Although James A. Garfield did not
serve as President long enough to create
history as to his policies, the story OF
his life, the humble beginnings in . log
cabin and as mule driver on a canal
towpath, his rise to military rank. men,
oership In Congress and to the chief
magistracy of his country. closing with
his untimely death, entitle him to a
place beside Lincoln and Mckinley as
glorious examples of the American abil-
ity to ascend from lowly origin to the
very top. SO that the city Of Wash
inston should not be slow to honor this
patriot and statesman, the sun Of
whose glory was eclipsed In our midst,
but whose example will ever remain as
beacon Of hope to the struggling
youth Of OUR own and other countries.
The time for a celebration is short, but
IL should be actively utilized.

loan bill argued that only those veterans
Who really needed the money would ap-
ply for loans at this time, and that a
great many who had employment would
not file their claims. But the contrary
proved the case. The door Of the Fed
eral Treasury was thrown open to d
preferred class What has happened IS
history. And now 1t is reported that
the veterans, not content With what
they have so far received. are to make
a drive in the coming Congress for the
full payment without delay, of their
adjusted compensation certificates.
At the time the soldiers bonus loan
Bill was put through pleas were made
that it should be limited to those vet
Grams who were without employment
But this was not satisfactory to the
supporters Of the bonus measure. So
those who were able to care for them
selves. as we'll as the distressed and out
of-work veterans were granted the
same privilege of going to the Federal
Treasury for money. And thousands of
employed veterans have made loans up
to the full fifty per cent. Perhaps it
would be more correct to say millions,
when the reports Of the Veterans Bu-
reau are scanned.
A Federal dole for the unemployed
would have at least the advantage of
appearing to be granted only for those
persons out of work But the great
difficulty would lie in the fact that
such 4 dole undoubtedly would increase
and perpetuate unemployment, creating
cancer within the Republic that
might in the end overthrow the Gov
eminent and destroy the American
system of government.
Senator Borah Of Idaho has warned
the people that if the wealthy and
well-to-do do not do their full share
toward the relief of the unemployed
and the distressed during the coming
Winter, they may expect that the Fed
eral Government will undertake, through
taxes, to compel them to make such
contributions. If the American citizens
OF all classes do their full duty this
Winter in the emergency that confronts
the country. there is nothing to fear If
they do not as the Idaho Senator has
said, the masses of unemployed will be
fed and clothed through other than
voluntary means. Such course would
mean national disaster.

Federal Pap.

DR.. Nicholas Murray Butler, in an ad-
dress on unemployment, has warned the
American people that a Federal dole"
system will bring into existence mot
only a nation of begsars, but Of self
made beggars." He went further and
said that the Federal Government can
enter the field of unemployment inSur-
ancs only with the gravest danger, and
to back up his statement referred to
the experience which the country has
recently had with the soldiers bonus
and with other forms of veterans pen
sions. The president of Columbia Uni
versity called attention to the great diff
fculty which Britain is having today,
because of the dole.
Should Congress set up measure of
unemployment insurance which in ef-
feet amounts to a dole out Of the Fed
eral Treasury, do2s any one really be-
lievc that the number of the registered
unemployed in this country would not
reach larger and larger proportions as
time passed? SGT up a Federal trough
and the numbers ready to eat out of it
could be controlled only by those them
selves who visited the trough. And if
one worker saw his fellows living at the
expense Of the Federal Treasury, would
1t not merely be human that he, too,
should feel the call to suck the national
pap?
DR.. Buffers reference to the country's
experience with the soldiers bonus is
not without point. Although 1t was well
recognized that the Government of the
United States faced a huge deficit ct

Backs Pay Reduction
OF Federal Workers
To the Editor Of The star:

To the Editor Of The Star:
In last nights paper there was
letter from a Mr.. Irving who objected
to the proposal Of the Gentleman from
Kansas to cut the salaries of all Gov
eminent employees. Mr. IrVing's OBJ
lection was that many of the employees
made so little that cut would only
add to the general distress suppose
by lessening the amount of money in
circulation
Id like to obviate that dificulty by
changing point of Mr.. McGugin's
plan. Cut the salary of every Govern
ment employe, from the President down,
one-sixth (siX or seven million unem-
ployed out of total working population
Of forty-five or fifty million is about
one-sixth) and use that money, not 10
save it, but to hire other workers.
1t would have two good results: The
same amount Of money will be in cir
culation and it will give jobs to
vast number of people. And We must
all agree that to give work is much
better than to give soup.
The contention of Mr.. Irving that
many can't get along II their salaries
are cut lacks force when we consider
that those out Of work have had to
get along.
So let's suggest to the political gentle
men that they start with themselves
would any of them dare object to a
cut in an election year II it were put
up to themO, cut their own salaries
and give till it hurts: and I fancy
the smaller fry would grin with enjoy
ment and cheerfully accept q cut In
their own pay.
Seriously, I think it Is not a bad
scheme and would give work to thou
sands Of people who will stand no
chance on these construction projects.

Mr.. Stewards Warning.

Addressing the convention of the Ma
tfonal Federation of Federal Employees,
IN Seattle, Luther Steward, its presi-
dent, warns that the voices Of the pre-
fessed Treasury watchdogs, the one
idea wage reductionists and the I'M
imaginative, who feel that to cut the
pay of Federal employees is the simplest
way out, will be heard in increasing
volume during the forthcoming session
OF Congress. Mr.. Steward urges prep
aration for = campaign to lower ex-
isting Federal salaries by arranging in
advance the proper defense.
1t is not believed that Mr. Steward is
setting UP straw man for the purpose
Of knocking it down. 1t is only natural,
m times when the normally tight purse
strings Of the Treasury are going 10 be
drawn even tighter, that there be some
effort TO restrict OUTLAWS by cutting the
salaries Of Federal workers, But one
must be . pessimist indeed who con-
Anapaatss any measure Of success for
