Editorial
We seem to have fallen down on our
Basketball team in regard to lusty lung
support. Last Friday at Benton City
our yell leaders appeared to have quite
lost their tongues. True enough, we've
had no pep rallies to arouse enthusiasm
and refresh our memories with yells,
but we hope to begin that activity soon.
When the going is tough for the teams
and they are in the hole, yell for them
It will help them out Of the danger
zone. That goes for both teams. Usually
the support is one sided, In favor Of the
boys. Come on fellows-Are you going
to lay down on the job7 Give the girls
some rahs. loud and snappyl Let's not
be caught again In such poor organ1za-
ton.

MERIT OR sPOILs SYSTEM?

From The Federal News Newspaper Of the National
Federation Of Federal EmpIoyes)
TWO personnel courses are open to the
administrators of the new governmental
agencies.
One is to fill positions with political
appointees. The other is to employ persons
Of experience in the federal government
machine, who have met the competitive re-
quirements Of the civil service
These two courses are open, but there is
only one proper STEP That is to re-employ
the men and women with civil service qualifi-
cations and training. who, through absolutely
no fault of their own, have been the victims of
curtailed operations elsewhere in the federal
government
There can be no questioning the wisdom Of
following such policy. 1t IS a course dictated
by every consideration of sound and intelli-
gent personnel practice, as well as by the
elements Of justice and fair play.
The administration has set up the new
emergency agencies not to provide jobs for
so-called deserving persons, but to hasten the
nations recovery. 1t follows logically that the
chief consideration of administrators is to gain
the most efficient and experienced workers
to aid them in their monumental task
Such workers are to be found in the men
and women whose names are on the lists of
the civil service commission.
They are men and women whose ex-
perience, efficiency and loyalty is not open
to question in any particular
The administration, on numerous occasions
before and since March A. has emphasized its
thorough belief in the merit system and it's
determination to uphold that principle
We are face to face with an opportunity
for a clear-cut decision.
The American people have given ample
evidence of their faith in the merit system
and their disgust with the spoils system.
And they are watching anxiously the per-
sonnet policy to be pursued by the admins
traitors of the new emergency agencies
That decision should be neither difficult to
make, nor delayed in its affirmation and
execution.

SPANISH JUSTICE

TT must have made an American little bit
melancholy to read the other day that Don
Juan March Ordinas, the richest man in all
Spain, has just completed year in Jail.
This wealthy Spaniard it develops, was a
deputy to the Cortes, and he was accused of
bribing General Primo de Rivera former die
tator, to obtain the Moroccan tobacco monop-
oily in 1926; and all his millions couldn't keep
him out of jail.
Spain seems to have a different method of
dealing with such folk than we have. In the
United States, when some wealthy man brides
a high government Official we do lot of talk
ing about it, and we even make the wealthy
gentleman come into court-but we don't or
dinarily, even come close to sending him to
prison.
It might be worth our while to find out
how Spain does it.

ATOM & co.

DIG game hunting in Africa, if it does not
imagination by the explorations of scientists
into the Businesses of the atom.
These scientists, in common with explorers
of other branches of modern science, have
reached a stage where they have produced
something which the public can understand
At least the ordinary mortal now is able
to appreciate that the atom, once considered
the smallest entity, is jungle, dark and
prodigious, with cosmic dynamite hidden in
it which man seeks to develop into super
power
The Darkest Africa of the atom, the
deuton, the neutron and the alpha particles,
however, differs from the Darkest Africa
known by explorers from Livingstone to Car
veth Wells, contemporary African debunker,
in this remarkable particular-that you can't
go big game hunting successfully in the
atomic jungle merely by hiring guide and
rigging up costly expedition.
Only the highly competent guides can go
on these explorations.
Fortunately, the guides, the Millikans of
the new science, are becoming more articulate
as they penetrate further And there are
more competent Stanleys going constantly in
quest of the Livingstones lost in remote labo-
ratories.
Witness the newspaper reports on the fas-
cinating papers read at the joint meeting of
the American Association for the Advance
ment of Science and the American Physical
Society in Chicago
Atom g. Co. are with us and growing. When
the firm will be open and ready for business
as deadly rival to the tribe of the insults
as power-venders to humanity is a question
If the big cannon being invented to liberate
the energy in the atom succeed in capturing
the imagination of the public, the Big Berthas
of the field of mortal battle may lose some
of their power over the fancies and the de-
structive passions of men.

ceeding cheerfulness control the
causation or disappearance in any
way, 1t is not possible to cause
a cancer to disappear by adopting
a cheerful attitude toward it.
Moreover, such an attitude may
lead to neglect of the possibility of
surgical removal or treatment by
radium or X-ray in the early stages
when relief by these methods is
possible.
Although young people occasion
ally have cancer, it is essentially a
disease that occurs beyond middle
age. The mental attitude never
should develop into cancer phobia,
or unwarranted fear of cancer.
Such an attitude does not help
the condition in any way. It is de-
sirable that people who have such
fears have complete and prompt
examination and, if after such ex-
animation they are given a mega
tive answer, they may consider their
fears as without warrant.
Do not procrastinate with the
possibility of cancer. The occur
ence of any unusual Jumps or of
any persistent and unusual bleed
ing from various organs Of the body
demands immediate examination.

NEW HAMPSHIRE Connecticut and Iowa
: line up for repeal. That leaves the score
IA to o. The record is even more one-sided
than that in favor of the eighteenth amend
ment, and more impressive because in this in
stance the verdict is by popular vote
Drys still hope for break, but they have
little to base it on, except one or two states in
the south and Kansas.
Jouett ShouSe is so sure of ultimate tri-
umph that he challenges any dry to name six
states that will vote against repeal He prob
ably would be safe if he reduced the number
to four
The American people have made up their
minds that temperance applies to law as well
as liquor.
The eighteenth amendment was one of the
most Incorporate pieces of legislation ever en-
acted. AS might be expected, it led to wild orgy
of lawlessness. Instead of less crime, we got
more. Worse than all else we got widespread
attitude of indifference and disreSpect toward
all law
THE diversion of revenue from government to
- racketeers was accompanied by a far more
serious diversion of loyalty. The slump in
patriotism and civic consciousness brought on
by prohibition is as great social disaster as the
slump in business.
1t will take at least one generation to re-
build the confidence in constituted authority
which we have lost through this foolhardy ex-
pertinent
The deterioration of public morale has had
direct bearing on the weakness of public policy
from which all branches of government have
suffered during the last thirteen years and
justly may be charged with large part of the
breakdown.
Indeed, there is ground for arguing that Vol
Steadism helped materially to aggravate the de-
preston, not only by switching vast amounts of
money into ilegitimate channels, but by alien
ating popular support of law-enforcing agen-
cieS all along the line.
Prohibition merely was one more phase of
that impractical idealism by which we assumed
that society would make men over While it had
been advertised Sold and promoted by seventy
years of campaigning in this country, it was
undoubtedly clinched by the war spirit.
w involves the suppression Of every natural
instinct to insure physical success
In this connection we still are dealing with
conceptions and ideas born of war propaganda
and intended to create an nlusionment that
would make men willing to die. People through
out the world were drugged into a fervor OF
patriotism with promises of what would happen
if they won.
Operating through highly organized sys-
tenn of publicity, statecraft dangled all sorts of
| impractical dreams before the eyes of a be-
wildered humanity. There would be no more
war, no more oppression, no more tyranny, if the
kaiser were whipped, and drunkenness would
go the way of all other sins
1t was not conflict to revolutionize politics,
but human nature.

ADVICE TO THE JOBLESS

THE high school or college graduate who
is looking for job this summer is in a
pretty tough spot. 1t is very hard to tell him
where to go to look for work; but one bit of
advice can be given him without hesitation
Don't go to New York unless you already
have job there lined up"
committee of the New York Welfare
Council just has issued warning to all young
graduates pointing out that opportunities in
the old home town are apt to be lot better
this summer for youthful job-seekers than
they are in New York.
unless you have friends or relatives here
an assured job or money enough to last
year, don't come to New York" the committee
says; and this discouraging warning ought to
be taken to heart by all ambitious graduates
This is no time for drifting off to the
metropolis on the chance that something will
turn up

Theirs Not to Reason

IN the field of higher ethics it
- sometimes has been argued that
no lawyer ever should take a case
unless he feels certain of the right
eouSneSS of his clients contentious.
This system is not followed invari-
ably by lawyers. 1t isn't followed by
cops at all. 1t wouldn't be quite
practical.
For instance, the other night the
College of the City of New York
staged a combined police parade
and commencement. If there is any
generosity in the soul of DR.. Rob-
inson he should see to it that the
captain of the precinct is awarded
an LID. During the last year the
police have played a larger part in
the administration of this institu-
ton of learning than the profess
SOrS
And yet I hardly see why the boos
and the SouthpaW cheers should 90
to the poor cop who stands on the
corner and says, Keep moving"
After all, he didn't put DR.. Robin
son in office. He isn't in any true
sense of the word keeping him
there
Without doubt the policeman
would much prefer a college presi-
dent more capable of functioning
without the collaboration of the
cops.
