a man fighting for his rights
protecting his own pride and

The fact shouldn't make us
softy with criminals, but it
should make us wise about
them; for we'll never be able
to prevent crime, or protect
ourselves against it, until we
understand why the criminal
gets that way. y

for sick pride. There are

They're all suffering from
thwarted pride. They all have
a normal desire to get ahead,
and they all feel that they're
not getting the breaks. Some.
times their peevishness is the
moan of a hurt soul, and some
times it's a racket to get atten-

pride behind it.

He Must Know Now
Of Economic Isolation

Of course, as a business
man, Mr.. Guggenheim under
stands perfectly that our for
eign trade is gone, our for
eign marks lost, our eco
nomic isolation made COM
plete by this tariff act which
it was necessary to pass be-
cause the delectable Mr..
Grundy, chief buzzer in the
"locust swarm Of lobbyists, "
chad raised a million dol
lars for Mr.. Hoover's cam
paign fund" "
He must know, for he
gives advice to statesmen,
that this act of ours was fol-
lowed by the retaliatory &C
tion Of other nations who
proceeded to isolate us eco
nomically and effectively.
Surely he has heard of these
proceedings. Even a few
days only before he spoke he
must have observed in the
press that there is a move
ment on in South America
today for a customs union
among Latin-American ma
tions aimed at making our
economic isolation more ef-
fective still because of this
tariff act.
Can it be possible that Mr..
Guggenheim has not heard
Of the happenings of the last
two weeks relating to this
tariff act and this economic
isolation?

nous interests, are unnatu-

Has He Heard Yet
Of GrundY Tariff?

But Mr.. Guggenheim. has
possibly never heard of the
Grundy tariff, or possibly
does not know, what almost
everyone else knows, that
this tariff is responsible for
our economic isolation now.
It seems incredible that even
a busy capitalist intent on
his personal business should
have heard nothing Of this
measure which raised a Chi
nese wall to dam foreign
trade. If he had read the
newspapers when it was
pending in Congress he
would have noted that not
only the Democrats opposed
it's passage on the ground
that it would shut us off
from foreign markets, but
that in the Senate so many
Republicans shared this be-
lief that only the Preslden-
tial lash of the man he
thinks understands the dan
gers Of economic isolation
better than most, could force
it through that Republican
chamber by a bare margin
of two votes.
If Mr.. Guggenheim had
been able to spare the time in
those days to have read the
speeches of Cordell Hull Or
if politicians" are obnox-
ious - have pondered the
open letter by 1000 leading
economists to Mr.. Hoover,
the man "who knows, set
ting forth the inevitable eco
nomic isolation that would
follow the enactment, he
might have phrased his ad-
dress Of the other day a bit
differently.

and beautiful work is based on
pride-based on some humans
faith in himself and desire to
do a good job for himself. We
would have had no civilization
if men had not been proud Of
themselves.
PRIDE LIES BACK OF
EVERY BAD DEED, AS WE'LL
AS GOOD DEED. EVERY
FORM OF CUSSEDNESS AND
CRIME IS BASED ON PRIDE.
This statement Startles you,
doesn't it? You don't believe it.
But think about it.
Not a Born Killer
Think of the murderer. He
was not born a murderer. He
was born just as you were born,
with the same natural desire
for a happy, healthy life. There
was no vicious cruelty in his
heart. He wanted to love
people. He wanted people to
admire him. He wanted to get
ahead in life, to win love, ad-
miration, wealth and power.
PRIDE DROVE HIM ON.
And then something got in
his way. Something seemed to
loom before him and bar his
way to happiness. You've had
that same thing happen to
you. You've known the same
sick rage-the same desire to
batter obstacles down.
But his desire drove him
into a frenzy which you
haven't known-and he killed.
He didn't kill to destroy life.
He killed to assort and pro-
tect. his pride. !, ,..
: It is 80 With the murderer,
and so with the thief, the
forger, the gambler, the gang
ster. Every crime is based on
pride.

English See No
World Leadership

It is unfortunate for Mr..
Guggenheim's theses that
just as he was speaking in
praise of Mr.. Hoover's wise
and sympathetic understand
ing of the international
situation, j. L. Garvin,
the London editor of the
Sunday Observer and a fore
most English publicist,
should be writing asking Mr..
Hoover to do something
about it. He says:
"At present there is no
leadership in the world
such as we ardently hoped
President Hoover would
provide"
He bitterly complains be-
cause under Mr.. Hoover
1.-THE United States does not
rise to a greater interna-
tional policy"
In other words, he is I'M
able to find the leadership
in the President that Mr..
Guggenheim has discovered.
And so, perhaps, we must
take him in the Pickwickian
sense, since a campaign is
opening and something
really must be done to build
up a party candidate, and
Mr.. Guggenheim is a good
party man, and "now is
the time for all good men tn
come to the aid Of their
party"

Guggenheim Discovers
Economic Isolation
Claude G.. BOWerS

is in ignorance of these oc-
currences. It may not be un-
gracious, therefore, to re.
mind him that Congress has
concluded that this economic
isolation is as bad as Mr..
Guggenheim himself believes
it to be; that it knows,
what Mr.. Guggenheim ap-
parently does not even guess,
that this Grundy tariff is
largely responsible for the
isolation that Congress, act
ing on this knowledge,
passed a tariff act, spon-
sored by the Democratic
House, asking Mr.. Hoover
"who knows" to enter into
negotiations with the view
to such reciprocal readjust-
ments in tariff laws as to
reopen the worlds markets
to our products and thus
end the economic isolation
which began because Of an
act of Mr.. Hoover Admin
istration.
Has Mr.. Guggenheim heard
about that?
If not, Of course, he does
not know that Mr.. Hoover
vetoed this plan sponsored
by economists and many
other leaders in finance,
business and industry, and
passed by the Democratic
House and the Republican
Senate.
Under the circumstances
it would be interesting to
know just what Mr.. Gug-
genheim means by urging
upon the Democrats an imi-
tation of Mr.. Hoover in get
ting us out of the economic
isolation in which we stew
in our own juice.

Oregon Republicans
Repudiate Hoover

Especially in view Of the
result of the Republican
primary in Oregon, where
Mr.. Hoover has been re
pudiated by his own party
in favor of former Senator
France. That vote would
not be so significant were
there the most remote posi-
bility CI Mr.. France nomi-
nation. When a President
In office, seeking a renomi-
nation, is running against q
man who has a chance to
win, such a result as that
In Oregon would be signi-
cant. But how much more
ominOus when the man op-
posing the President cannot
be nominated and the ma
Jority voting for him know
that his opponent will be
named. Nothing could meas
'ure more impressively the
undercurrent Of feeling run
ming against the Admins
tration and it's fruits.
Meanwhile it is evident
that Congress cannot posi-
bly, do its work, or even ap-
proach its completion before
the meeting of the first of
the two conventions. Mat,

that are of vital import to
the people. Business wants

Il day, William Guggen-
helm, like so many Of our
leaders in the big business
world, was evidently a bit
confused. He is a Republi-
can, but like many Repub-
licans in the high financial
sphere, he is now giving ad-
vice to the Democrats. One
gathers from his speech that
the way for the Democrats
to win is to take over the
policies and principles of
the Republicans Of the last
II years which probably
have something to do with
the desperate situation in
the country now.
Mr.. Guggenheim tells his
audience in one breath that
we must get away from the
idea of economic isolation;
and in the next breath he
tells us that Mr.. Hoover has
. the ideas he would have the
Democrats adopt to escape
such isolation; and he as
sures us that Mr.. Hoover
understands the world situa-
ton perfectly. Perhaps that
is tho reason we are rolling
in prosperity today and are
not in a position of economic
isolation,
