Hunger Forces
Serious Thought

There is occasion for serl-
Gus thought as we'll as jubila-
tion during the holiday sea-
son this year. Reports pour
ing in from every quarter
indicate a desperate struggle
for local funds to prevent
the suffering and starvation
of the unemployed. The
campaign for funds in New
York has been disappOint-
ing; in Chicago, where an
attempt is being made to
raise $7,5OO,OOO, scarcely
half has been contributed;
in the towns and cities of
the corn belt the unemploy-
ment situation is serious be-
cause of the lack Of pur-
chasing power in the farm
ers; in Detroit, private
charity is falling down and
conditions are rather des-
perate.
It is noteworthy that in
almost all the larger centers,
reliance is being placed upon
assistance through the funds
appropriated to the Recon
struction Finance Corpora
ton. All of which gets us
back to the inevitable on
which we have touched many
times in these columns-that
if private charity fails, as it
is failing, and if local gov
ernmental units aust
their resources, the Federal
Government must go to the
rescue. Certainly this is not
the time, as President
Hoover implied in his mes
sage, for the national Gov
ernment to abandon public
construction projects or to
discontinue extending credits
to the States for the bene-
fit of municipalities unable
to meet the imperative de-
msnds of humanity in a
crisis. =

Your Birthright

Are you the sort of person
who never misses an oppor-

favorable about a person who
has reached a high place in
certain lines?
Are you prone to remind
others of facts which are not
creditable regarding the family

Commendation should be

LIVE BEYOND THE BOUND

AND NO MAN WHO STAYS
BOUND WITHIN THE LIMITS
OF HIS OWN NATURE HAS
EVER REALLY LIVED.
You have not lived until
you have loved.
Until you have gone out of
your own heart into other
hearts; until you have learned
to understand and serve and
pity and respect those other
hearts and, in that service, for
gotten your own need, you have
not lived.
For, unless you have done
that, you have not taken the
great risks, or gone on the
great adventure, seen the tall
visions-and you do not know
what life is all about. .. e..
These risks and adventure
and visions they are what
life is all about" Life is not
about the things that lie
within yourself, however rich
and abundant those resources
may be. It is about the things
that lie outside yourself, in
other lives, in different expert
ences-the beautiful and terri

and infinitely varied things
that lie in other lives.

ly, and do not whine at the
cost.
For love and life always
cost a great deal. And you
begin to pay the minute you
begin to love. Many a love is
not happy or peaceful. Many
a love is not even wise, judged
by any test of prudent selfish

BUT EVEN THE MOST UN.
HAPPY LOVE IS A PROFIT

EVERY EXPERIENCE IN

AS wide as your heart.
So open your heart and let

Wit and Humor,
Fighting Qualities.

He had the charm of his
race, it's wit and humor, its
love of fun. He had its
fighting qualities as well.
He was sagacious, wise. He
was tolerant and kind. He
never underestimated a foe
and could do fair justice to
an enemy in politics or busi-
ness. Above all he was
loyal.
Beginning with nothing
but the inherent qualities
that made for success, he
built up a great newspaper
property and made it a
power in his community
through service to its people,
Consequently his frie n ds
were legion. Had he cared
to write his memoirs he
would have given us a fasci'

they would likely turn and

MARRY-GO-ROUND
Ike and lights on
BY Helen Rowland

When a girl goes to Florida
for the winter and to Maine
for the summer, it is not always
so much for a change of eli
mate or a change of scenery
as for a change of heart
interest.
One reason why a married
man seldom makes any fuss
about the one drawer he is
allotted in the chiffonier and
the two hooks he is allowed
in the clothes-closet is because
he never intends to put his
things away, anyhow.
The woman from whom a
man runs away is never the
dangerous" one, against whom
he is warned, but always the
mice girl" that his family picks
out for him as perfectly safe"

heart, an anesthetic for the

It also established Mack s
position as party leader
as a man on whose fidelity
the party could count. AT
the time of his death, no
living Democrat had been so
intimately identified with
the party history of a third
of a century. He was on
the board of strategy for
Bryan in 1900; for Parker
in 1904; for Bryan again in
1908; for Wilson in 1912
and 1915; for Cox in 1920;
for Davis in 1924; for Smith
in 1928. He resigned dur

THE death Of Norman a n
i Mack closes career Of
more than ordinary interest
and usefulness. Men now 81
years old were but 20 when
he became the Democratic
national committeeman from
New York, and only five
months ago he voluntarily re-
tired. Through all these
years he was the personifica-
tion of fidelity. There were
times, as in 1896, when it re-
quired great moral courage
to remain loyal to the party
in New York. This was espe-
cialIy true in the case Of
Mack. He was still strug-
Cling for the firm establish
ment Of his paper and he was
more or less at the mercy of
his bankers. He was sup
porting Bryan. 1t was the
year of open, defiant coer-
cion, when bankers were call
ing in their debtors and in
structing them how to vote.
Mack was summoned to the
foot of the financial throne.
He was given to understand
that unless he discontinued
his support of Bryan, he
would be crushed by the
weight of his debts.
He knew that the threat
could be made good and for
twenty-four hours he medi-
tated on his plans. He re-
turned to the bankers to
meet them on their own
terms, to discuss their prop
osition in their own Ian
guage. "You want your
money; you don't want the
paper which is still strug-
gling?' he asked. It was
agreed. eff | succeed in
making a success of the
paper l can pay you, and
if I don t, 7 can't" he con-
tinued. This was clear
enough. Mine is the only
paper supporting Bryan in
this town and my support
of Bryan will bring all sup
porting him to my circula-
tion-isn't that true?" The
bankers thought it probable.
And that will give me
big circulation t through
which | can increase adver-
tising rates and make the
money with which to meet
my obligations" he went
on. The bankers listened.
And if I betray my party
and its candidate, | will lose
the circulation | now have
and cannot meet my loans,
and the paper itself will 60
on the scrap-heap and will
be valueless to you" The
silence deepened. But at
length the bankers spoke.
They told him to go ahead
and support Bryan. He did.
That was the beginning of
his big success. The bankers
were paid back.
During the last week of
the recent campaign, visiting
with Mack at the Erie
Downs Club across the Peace
Bridge in Canada from Buff
falo, I heard this story from
