There is infinite grief every home today for the young

Warning Of
Revolution

This week, on the same
day, two people, neither red
nor radical, warned the ma
tion of popular resentment
by the use of the ominous
word revolution" One was
thinking about the plight of
the millions denied the in
alienable right to work, who
literally in many instances
are actually starving. We
have no patience with the
falsehood that no one is
starving. Statesmen are
men who face facts, and not
ostriches who stupidity stick
their heads in the sands.
Edward F. McGrady,
speaking for the American
Federation Of Labor, said to
a Senate committee:
eff something is not done
starvation is going to con-
time and perhaps increase.
the doors Of revolution are
going to be thrown wide
open. The Administration
ought to know that more
than balancing the budget
is needed. Bread and but
ter are needed. We want to
get it through work, but if
we can't do that, we are
going to get it anyway"
That is a very rough
statement; and yet strongly
reminiscent of the statement
of Daniel Willard, the rail-
road president, who told an
assembly of business men
that he would steal before
he would starve.
The other warning Of
revolution came from Col.
Henry Anderson, a member
of the Presidents Wicker
sham Commission, and was
inspired by conditions grow
ing out Of the prohibition

The Senate and TaxiS
D. G.. Bill Should Be Amended

The District subcommittee of Senate Appropriations
Committee should strike from the local appropriation bill the
House provision designed to strip the Public Utilities Com
mission of control over taxicabs.
The section has place in appropriation bill.
It is legislation and poor legislation at that.
The House. in adopting the ection acted hastily and with
out proper consideration of the effects which would follow
its action
No city wants 5000 carriers dashng around its
streets without any semblance of regulation
No city wants taxcab patrons left at the Of gyp
drivers who destroy the reputation OF all operators.
No city the lives of its residents endangered by
who must drive at furious rate in effort to out an
existence.
In the National Capital
The Senate should not condone such legislation.

The God you deny is in you.
In your angry demand for
truth; in your rebellion against
cruelty and unfairness; in your
bitter, bewildered dream of a
better world, there is proof OF

Consider your own strange
ness. What is your body? It
is the body Of an animal. It
is no finer, indeed not quite as
perfect or as healthy a body,
as the body Of a gorilla. A

jungle.
Millions Of human bodies are
still living in jungles. You
lived as they are living, in con-
ditions Of horrible fear and
filth, ignorance and brutality
a brute life suited to your
brute body.
Better Than a Brute
And yet there was something
in you better than the brute.
There was something in you
that was not suited to jungles;
that hated jungles; that reached
out beyond the fear, filth,
ignorance and brutality Of
jungle life.
There was tenderness in you,

sometimes triumphed over self
ishness; that made you willing
to sacrifice yourself for those
you loved. There was a crude
sense Of justice, a crude sense
of beauty.
How mysterious that these
things should have been in you,
who were physically and men,
tally so like an ape? Why
should they have been in you?
They did not make life easier
for you. Indeed, they often
made it much harder for you.
Yet there they were, whisper
ing to you, stirring up strange
dreams, goading you on to
amazing rebellions and adven-
lures.
AND STILL THEY Wits
PER, AND STIR, AND GOAD!
Through all the millions Of
years Of man life, that inner
mystery has never ceased; that
inner presence has never died.
Where is God?
There is God in ourselves.
We complain that God does
not save the world; but there
is enough God in each one Of
us to save the world If we
would express Him.
IF WE WOULD ONLY LIVE
UP TO THE GOODNESS IN
OURSELVES, THERE WOULD
BE HEAVEN ON EARTH.
Have faith in the goodness
in yourself. Have faith in the
God in every man. Believe
that God will triumph over the
beast in man as He has always
triumphed. Believe that God
will keep on bringing man up
out of the jungle.
Have faith, and back that
faith with action. Keep on
hoping, keep on praying, keep
on fighting for decency.
Here are two lines that Whit
tier wrote, which are a whole
religion in themselves:
"By all that He requires Of me,
I know what God himself
must be-"
BE GOD, AND YOU'LL FIND
GOD. THE MORE GOD YOU
USE, THE MORE GOD YOU
WILL HAVE.

Sowing the Seed Of
Ultimate Revolution

Should the first and third
objects be achieved, there
would probably be no ne
cessity for the second; but
you cannot deny men jobs
and expect them to starve
gracefully, waving the flag.
The passage and approval
by the President Of the
Wagner bill would restore a
vast army Of the unemployed
to the purchasing class
through direct wages for
needed work well done; and
this would help the mer-
chants; and the increased
demand on the merchants
would help the manufac-
turers; and the manufacture
ers would have to put more
men to work.
The legalization Of light
wines and beer would put a
million men to work at
steady jobs; and this would
help the merchants again;
and again it would help the
manufacturers; which again
would help the unemployed.
But it would do more-it
would help the farmer who
is no longer in the purchas-
ing class.

- ATE, Senator carter GIaSS,
speaking in no partisan
spirit, as Senator Moses
agreed, made a startling an
nouncement. 1t is to the eff
feet that during the Taft ad-
ministration an opinion was
asked Of Solicitor General
lehman, a very distin-
guished lawyer, as to the
legality of bank affiliates,
and that it was given-and
suppressed. Glass says:
Although not a lawyer
myself, I venture to say that
it is a legal classic, search
ing and sweeping, and to the
effect that national bank
affiliates are absolutely il
legal. Court opinion after
court opinion of both infe-
rior courts and the Supreme
Court are cited"
The opinion was sup
pressed by two Attorneys
General-one a Republican
and one a Democrat.
And Glass concludes that
"few things have ever hap
pened in this country that
better illustrate the power
and Establishments Of inor-
dinate wealth. "
It is to these affiliates that
Glass ascribes a large respon-
sibility for the worst panic
in history.
The Balancing
Of the Budget
With the bipartisan plan
Of cooperation in the Senate,
there are reasons to believe
that the tax bill will soon be
passed, and a scheme Of tax
alton for the balancing Of the
budget sent back to the
House. The injection Of tariff
features in the bill may de-
lay passage, and, of course,
will precipitate a debate I'M
less the Democrats have con-
cluded to abandon a tariff
plank in their platform and
go over to the Republicans
on that issue.
But the balancing of the
budget, while imperatively
required and certain to have
a salutary effect on public
confidence, will not scratch
the surface of the job Con-
gress and the President must
undertake. We are getting
our money safe-guarded;
and in time we shall have
to give some consideration

Here are some thoughts
on which President Hoover
may we'll mediate. Now
that the metropolitan press
in the East has agreed that
he is a great leader; now
that he breaches the virtue
of courage" he should
face the fact that there are
three things that can and
should be done that will re-
move the dangers to which
a labor leader and a con-
servative business man agree.
1. Let him withdraw his
objections to the Wagner
bill for a prosperity loan to
put jobless men to work at
wages.
2. Let him withdraw his
opposition to Federal assist
ance to prevent starvation
in communities where local
governments have exhausted
their resources and private
charity is shown to be in
adequate.
3. Let him send a mes

that the "noble experiment"

is current the feeling that

history. During the prelude
to great movements aimed
at the overthrow of govern
ment, there has first been
an increase in the individual

largely due here to the

SIAM REVOLUTION LASTED BRIEF SPELL.
 ONE OFFICER KILLED

BANKOK, Siam, June 25, (P)- A sanguinary but brief revolution in which the chief of staff of the army was killed because he resisted arrest occurred here. The revolt was led by the army and navy with the an- nounced object of delivering the country from government by prime es. The rebels invaded the palace and captured members of the royal family, cabinet members and other officials and imprisoned them in building.
 A warship was sent to Hausin where King Prajadhipok and Queen Rambai, who visited the United States some time ago, and ordered them brought back to Bankok. The people took no part in the move ment.
 The city is quiet and the King is expected here soon. Apparently the rebels are willing that the King continue to reign, but not as an ab- solute monarch
 The revolution, led by army and navy officers demanded the estab- lishment of a constitutional mon archy under the King. While the royal family, Minister of the Inter for and chief of police wereseized by the insurgents and held at Throen hall under guard, the only bloodshed was the shooting of an officer who refused to join the re- vClutionary movement.
