We could get together. We
could hold mass meetings. De-

Contribute money. Cast votes.
Get busy and clean up the
whole mess.
A Decent Earth
Something could be done. 1t
would take time, and a lot Of
energy; but it could be done.
And then this earth in which
we live, and in which our
children are to live after us,
would be a decent place-a fair

could be proud of.
Then why isn't that some

Are we bad? Are we cruel?
Do we like to see people
suffer?
No, we aren't-and we don't.
We're not really wicked, but
we just don't get around to at
tending to things like that.
Sympathetic? Sure. Hate to
see misery, and when it comes
right under our noSe-then we
get excited.
But the rest of the time-we
just forget, and put it off.
We're so busy with our own
affairs. And we're so COM
Portable. r
Of course, we haven't every
thing we'd like to have; but
we're warm; we're fed. Our
worst bills are paid, and if
little Benny falls sicks we can
afford to call a doctor.
So, although we're just as
warm-hearted as anyone. we
somehow can't realize that peo'
pie are starving-actually starv-
ing-or huddled homeless out
in the rain, or dying for lack
of a warm room and simple
nursing.

1t isn't that we're selfish, not

It's just that it somehow

And so, we forget.

indignant if anyone called us
MURDERERS. Yes, we GER
tainly would. And yet
Does the man dying in the

Senator Borah
Stated q Fact

The other day Senator
Borah, referring to the Re-
construction Corporation act,
said the Administration had
gone "socialistic or Soviet"
to help the banks, railroads,
corporations. He did not
complain; he stated a fact.
And no one, not even
Senator Reed, replied; be-
cause there was no reply.
Senator johnson, speaking
of the same act, said:
"There never was such an
act passed in the history Of
any nation on the face Of
the earth in peace time. I
challenge contradiction of
that statement" d."
And not one accepted the
challenge, it was true.
Direct action you have
taken in your Reconstruc-
tion Corporation in behalf
of your banks and your
railroads" said Johnson. II
quarrel not with it,"
But some others quarreled
with it. A writer in the
Magazine of Wall Street was
quoted by the Senator:
"It should be clearly un-
derstood that both the pro-
gram outlined and the
frankly inflationary meas
ures that may be later
adopted are socialistic.
And, then, johnson hit the
nail on the head with the
comment:
Socialism you have en-
braced in what. you have
done. I am not frightened
of it in the necessity that
exists, but, since you have
made your adventure into
socialism in behalf of banks
and railroads, let us take q
step just over the line in
behalf of men and women
and children who need gov
ernmental aid"
And no one in the Senate
explained why it is wise in
behalf of the powerful and
vicious in behalf of human
beings in need of jobs and
bread.

For the first time in our
history Government now
goes into the Treasury, into

Never again shall we hear
that Government must

Government lets business
alone some dreadful things

and none of us want that.

that is not customary-it is
going artificially to at

Eighteen months ago we
all understood that artificial
initiation had wrought our
ruin, and that the Admins
tration has helped; and
business men were saying
that deflation would be the
thing. We had had too
much of it. But. perhaps
we can have too much arti-
ficial initiation again.
But the deflationists,
wanting initiation for the
benefit Of some, still stoutly
insist that the deflation OF
the wages of the multitude
must go on; and it is going
on.

THE best thing President
= Hoover has yet done,
and the greatest public SER
vice he has yet rendered, is
his appointment of Chief
Justice Benjamin N. Car
dozo, of New York, to the
Supreme Court of the
United States to succeed
Justice Holmes. There
never has been the slight
est doubt as to who should
be appointed.
The position calls for the
very highest type OF legal
attainments and judicial
genius and the American
Bar unanimously agree that
no one meets these require
ments to a greater degree,
if, indeed, there is anyone
who measures up so per-
fectly. His decisions, while
handed down from a State
tribunal, are read regularly
by lawyers everywhere
not only in America but in
England. He has the rare
gift of so phrasing his
opinions that they take on
the character of literature.
But there was a more
vital point involved in the
choice of a successor to
such a man as Justice
Holmes-and that was his
attitude as a liberal toward
our social and industrial
civilization. Purposely or
not, the great majority OF
the justices Of the Supreme
Court are very conservative,
and some would say re-
dictionary. There have been
two exceptions in recent
vears-Holmes and Brandeis'
