Only Favorites'
Will Be Exposed

Now there is to be a
senatorial investigation of
the security, ETC., of the
loans made up to this time
SAID to have consumed ST.
6OO,000,OOO of the two bill
lions originally set aside
from the Treasury.
Senator Couzens, Republi-
can, is responsible for this
investigation.
The investigation was
voted by both Democrats
and Republicans.
Were these investigators
to make public the names of
all the institutions asking
and receiving loans, I think
it would be vicious. Great
numbers of sound banks,
with good but frozen assets,
that have good security, and
will repay the loan, are en-
titled to complete protection
against publicity.
And they are going to get
this protection.
There will be publicity
only where favoritism, po-
litical or personal, has been
shown, where "any old kind
of security" has been given.
We can find no "radi-
calism" i'll that; that is the
conservatism of common
sense-the kind Of "radi-
caIism" that any private
banker or business man
would show.

MARRY-GO-ROUND
BY Helen Rowland

She wants a career; she wants
excitement; she wants Whoopee
and limelight and all that sort
of thing.
Yet I doubt that there is a
normal-minded girl living who
would not joyfully exchange an
office desk for a blue-and-white
kitchenette, "shoppe" for
wedding-ring and a job for a
baby. "Woman's place is in
the homeland so is her heart.
But what can she do if men
compromise" by offering her
an automobile instead of
home, and part-time affection
instead of a life-job?
Men complain that women
spend too much time decora-
ting the outside of their heads
and too little cultivating the
inside. But since when have
men encouraged women to be
The Washington times., 1932-07-20

The tears we wept in pity
and in tenderness-they go to
feed that pure, white flame.
The splendid dreams we
dreamed, too tall for our weak
strength, perhaps, but bravely
planned
The prayers we made, when,
for an instant, we were sure
we touched Gods hand.
The battles we fought for
honor and for love; fought
vainly, sometimes; came away
with scars-but still that cour-
age helps to light flame!
And all the small and friendly
acts that make life sweet; the
meal we sha. ed; the laughter
we passed on; even the lie we
told to spare another pain
these, too, have served to keep
the flame alight.
The Flames of Remembrance!
There is the most precious
thing in all our human life
the only treasure any man can
keep.
There is the thing that makes
the simplest life worth while;
and there's the thing that keeps
our poor race struggling on.
Fire of Courage
For. each man lights a flame
for other men as we'll as for
himself. That flame in France
burns not for one dead lad
alone. 1t burns for all the
courage that the world has
known; for all the courage that
is yet to come.
So each man lights a beacon
for all other lives. The small,
white deed that lights my inner
night for me will also break
the darkness for some other
soul.
The love your heart remem-
berS and the faith it keeps
will send a glory flaming
through each life you touch.
AS those who've passed have
left their flame to you, refuel
that flame with courage, faith
and love-AND PASS 1T ON!

Never, since those shattered,
nameless bones were laid to
rest. has that light failed, and
never, as long as French minds
can remember and French
hearts can love, will it fail.
For that is the Flame of Re-
membrance." And the French
remember their heroic dead.
Periodically, the fuel which
keeps the flame alight is re-
plenished. Recently, for the
second time, woman was
given this great privilege. She
was Madame Duval-Arnould,
who lost one of her own five
sons during the World War.
What must her thoughts have
been as her hands lowered over
that flame? The old, old
thoughts that burn forever in
the hearts of all those who
have loved and lost.
The Eternal Flame
For each heart that has
dared to live and dared to love
holds a grave: and over that
grave burns the Flame of Re
membrance.
AND ALL THAT IS PRE-
CIOUS AND BEAUTIFUL AND
NOBLE AND BRAVE IN LIFE
GOES TO FEED THAT
FLAME.

Relief Bill Demanded
Adequate Security

Then, again, the Admins
tration circles, including Og-
den Mills and Mr.. Hoover,
raised a hue and cry against
Garner and Wagner because
Of their proposal to increase
the amount at the disposal
of the r. f. c. to MAXI it
possible to loan money to
any reputable business en-
terprise that can show it
has orders that would put
men to work in factories if
it can get credit and can
give absolutely safe security.
There was a thoroughly
indefensible and intolerable
misrepresentation of this
provision in the bill given
out by Mr.. Mills and Mr..
Hoover; since the Hoover
statement, presumably writ
ten by Mr.. Mills, charged
that the money was to be
loaned on any old kind of
security.
This clamor over security,
adequately provided for in
the rner-Wagner bill,
naturally concentrated pub
lie and senatorial attention
on the kind of security de-
manded and received in the
loans to railroads and banks.
We need not dwell here
upon the particular loan of
an enormous amount made
TO one financial institution
at the instance of a very
prominent Republican politi-
clan who had been a men,
ber of the board until a
few days before the loan
was made.
The Washington times., 1932-07-20
But what encouragement do
women get to be reasonable?

Who is it that gets all the
petting and coddling, as we'll
as all the jewels and spending
money?
Is it the sweet, reasonable,
unselfiSh woman, who econo-
mizes on "facials," curls her
own hair and does her own
manicuring? Is it the under
standing, self-sacrificing woman,
who would rather wear her old
clothes and drive an old flivver
than keep her husbands nose
to the grindStone?
Is it the woman who never
poutS or WeepS or nagS, when
she can't have new hat or a
new car or a new Slave-bracelet
who never makes a fuss or
goes into a tantrum?
Oh, yes, of COURSE it is
NOT! That sweet, reason
able woman is permitted to go
right on being reasonable and
self-sacrificing," and wearing
made-over hats and fiVe-and-
ten jewelry, just as long as she
will: while little Mrs. Storm
and-Strife gets everything she
frets for, including tender de-
votion. Everything and any,
thing-to keep her QUIET!
Men complain that the mod
ern business girl is a clock
watcher, who thinks of nothing
but powdering her nose, get
ting by" and making a heavy
date.
I've never met that kind of
business girl" but doubtless
there are lots of them. Why
not? Did you ever see man
pick out the plain, unpoWdered
girl, who looks as though she
might never have a date, in
preference to the fluffy haired,
lip-sticked Cutie who applied
for the job?
And do you see the men
around a business office taking
Miss Painless or Miss Superior
out to lunch? Or falling over
with gratitude when she works
after hours, to get their letters
off and their desks cleared up?
Men complain that the mod
ern girl is not interested in
plain, old-fashioned marriage
and a good, old-fashioned home.

Forgotten Man"
No Figure of Speech

So, as we go on the pub
lie will analyze these parti-
san TRADES on the "radi-
calism" of Roosevelt and
Garner, and determine for
themselves whether it is
red" and "unsound" or
merely insist upon the
proper protection of the
whole people and equal JUS
tice to all people.
Mr.. Roosevelt was pounced
upon savagely as a "radi-
cal" and unsafe'i because.
in a speech, he mentioned
the forgotten man. Any
intelligent American who
does not know what he
meant and does not know
that there has been a "fOr-
gotten man" in government
during the Mellon tenure of
II years would be as hard
to find as the needle in q
hayStack.
The Washington times., 1932-07-20
Only a Scandal
Will Bring Publicity

First, let us dispose of the
attack upon it. This is
based on the proper theory
that the best of banks, with
the best of security, but
with frozen assets, would be
injured were its application
for a loan to be broadcast
to the country.
The answer to this, and it
is a sufficient answer, is
that nothing Of the sort will
be done under the provision.
1t merely means that Con-
gress, which created the
Reconstruction Finance Cor
poration and turned billions
of public money over for
loans, shall be in position to
know how the money is be-
ing distributed. Unless there
is something scandalous In
the loan there will be no
publicity; if there is some
ing scandalous, there should
be publicity.
just now there is a SEN
ate committee, not created
by Garner, but at the in
stance of a Republican Sen
ator, to investigate the loans
already made. The public
will observe that this COM
mittee will not give pub
licity to any loans unless they
are found to have been inde-
fensible.
And if they are inde-
fensible, the public ought
to know.
The Washington times., 1932-07-20
Curious About Loans
To Repay Bankers

So far as you or | know,
there has been no complaint
made by any responsible
Democratic leader upon the
creation of the Reconstruct
ton Finance Corporation.
How absurd it would be
otherwise! For the Demo-
Gratis voted unanimously, we
think, for it's creation.
There has been some criti-
cism, not partisan in it's ma
ture, on the personnel of the
board entrusted with the
distribution of these billions.
This has not been aimed at
the character of the men,
bers, but at the fact that
some of them have had close
relations with some Of the
great institutions that have
applied for or received loans.
This is such a perfectly
legitimate criticism that in
the bill just passed a pro-
vision to remove it has been
written in without objection
from any source.
Then some loans have been
made that many conserva-
tive-not radical, but sound
ly conservative-people more
than question. Thus the Mis-
souri, railroad loan of ten
million which turned out to
be a loan made from the
public treasury to pay off a
loan to J. p. Morgan and
Company. There is a gen.
eral feeling in the country
that Morgan and Company,

CONGRESS has adjourned,
~ having done exceedingly
we'll in view of the presi-
Dental veto, which awaited
any really adequate measure
for relief. The Garner-Wag-
ner bill, as good as possible
in view of the veto, is
passed; and nothing like it
would have been even con-
sidered on the initiative of
Mr.. Hoover.
Under the Administration
strategy to convince the
public that the Democrats
are anarchists, or at least
Communists, it is now the
purpose to attack Garner
because of his insistence on
the publicity feature for
bank loans to great financial
institutions.
Garner is growing with
the public enormously be-
cause of the enemies he has
made. If he were an apollo
getic Democrat or one
obsequious to great wealth,
he would be patronized by
the Administration press;
but he is two-fisted fight
ing man, and that makes
him anathema. But not with
the masses of the people.
There was a reason, and a
sound one, for the incorpora-
tion of the publicity feature
into the loan bill.
The Washington times., 1932-07-20

intelligent? And what does it
profit a girl to speak three or
four languages, when she can
giggle in one and get twice the
results.
The truth is that women are
more reasonable, more eff
cient and more intelligent today
then they ever have been. But
some of them will always be as
frivolous. silly and capricious
as men want them to be; and
those are the ones that men
will seek, fall in love with-and
then hold up to scorn as typi-
cal examples of the Selfish
Sex!"

Usually it meant indulgence

actual physical discomfort and
ennui.
There was an aimlessness,
a lack of desire or incentive, in
such a life that robbed it of its
greatest charm.
Isn't it fact that the things

to work the hardest to obtain?
Can you think of any degree

its most important strategic position to be controlled by those

We do expect trouble with Japan China, anybody
We certainly do not WANT trouble
But if HAD trouble with Japan could the Japanese in
Hawaii do other than sympathze with their country?
Or if had trouble with China could the Chinese in Hawaii
do otherwise than sympathize with their mother land?
Hawaii, which this country would depend outpost
of defense in the Pacific of trouble should be thoroughly
Americanized
