System Failure

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, July 30.
Communism has failed to better

peasants, according to an American
engineer, H. L, Tedrow, recently re-
turned from that country.
For the peasants, it is merely a
matter of changing czars," Tedrow
expla He superintended

"It's an example of an organized
minority of some 100000 Com
munists ruling about i60,OOO,000 un-
organized people" he continued.
''The huge military demonstra-
tions of the government are. for no
other purpose than to show off its
power and keep the citizens thor
oughly cowed."
Tedrow said that while he and his
wife were given every possible COM

and butter at rare intervals. And

THRONES AND CHICKENS

THE pretender to the throne of Portu-
L gal is country gentleman, living on
an estate in Austria and devoting HIM
self to the task of raising chickens. And
the other day, when he was informed
that former King Manuel ii had died.
and that he himself was therefore in line
for the throne, he indicated that the chic
ken-raising business seemed to him bet
ter than kingship.
Very likely this was at least partly be-
cause Portugal is a republic, and being
in line for its throne is an empty honor.
But probably his indifference is more
largely duo to the fact that being a king
is a very poor line of work to be in, these
days, and a throne can hardly compare
with flourishing chicken farm.
In the old days the world was made
for kings, and a kingship was worth hav-
ing The king and his mobiles mattered,
and the rest of mankind did not 1t was
commonly supposed that kings were di-
vinely appointed to their jobs, and to re-
bel was not only treasonous but sacri-
ligious.
Nowadays, though, things are differ
ent. Where kings survive, they are fig
ureheads and nothing more. To be sure,
things are made very pleasant for them,
and they get lot of attention; but the
honor is an empty one, and they never
quite know when some ultra-radical par
ty may get control of the government
and throw them out entirely.
1t was the development of the idea of
democracy that brought about this sad
change in affairs The American and
French revolutions made every throne
on earth insecure in the last analysis,
and made it possible for thriving chic
ken farm to look more attractive than a
kingship.
Right now, perhaps, democracy has
slrmped just trifle. Dictatorships are
popular in Europe, and there is not a
great deal to choose between the rule of a
divinely-appointed monarch and that of
a self-appointed dictator. But the leav-
en- is still working, and it will always
continue to work Once an idea is loosed
into the world it cannot be stopped. Die
tatorships, sooner or later, will stand
where monarchies stand today. Those
who have hankering to rule without the
consent of the governed had best look
around for good chicken farms. Sooner
or later they will need them.
