No Endorsement Of Communism

In announcing that he has opened negotiations
with the Soviet government of Russia looking to-
ward eventual recognition Of that nation, President
Roosevelt does not as we understand it, ndorse or
advocate Communistc form of government. He rec
ognzes the fact that for sixteen years the Russian
people have been developing new form Of govern
ment, that that government has survived and is ap
parently strong enough to continue indefinitely, and
that it is the Russian peoples business as to
what form their government takes.
In it's early days the Soviet experiment was ac-
companed by loud threats Of world revolution. We
understand that those threats largely due to the
belief that a Capitalisc world would not tolerate
single Communistic experiment, and that in order
for it to succeed it would be necessary to convert all
the rest of the world The Soviet leaders have learned
different by now they have discovered that the rest
Of the world doesn't care what they do inside their
own nation Little is heard these days Of the danger
of the spread Of Communism
It seems to us that it is as reasonable for the
United States to recognize the right of Russia to be
considered world nation as it is to regard Italy, un
der Dictator or Japan under an absolute monarch
as having equal rights with ourselves None Of them
has our form of government but would be last to
try to impose our ideas upon them.
Recognition of Russia ought to open up trade
channels which are now inpeded, and create much
more friendly feeling among all the nations 10 be
sure there are several other matters to be settled
Will the Soviet government recognize the debts oWec
bv the old Russian government to the United States
and restore the American property which 1t confls
Gated? That and other questions need answering be-
fore recognition can be generally acceptable.

An Opportunity For Service

The warning comes from every side that the Vim
ter of 1888 is going to be the hardest yet from the
point of demands upon public and private funds for
relief of distress.
While there are more workers back On the pay
rolls, and projects Of public works and private enter
prise are beginning to show signs Of life yet there
are perhaps as many people who have just reached
the end Of the rope as there whose difficulties have
been 1essened by getting back to work.
Millions have been living on their capital through
these past four hard years Many Of these have ex-
hausted their savings and will be forced to look to
others for help in keeping warm and getting enough
to eat this winter Other millions have been giving to
the relief funds until they, too feeling the p'-I
severely And all of the of help based r,on
taxation running dry.
We are confident that the peak of the depression
has been passed. that the upturn has really begun.
But President Roosevelt told the gathering at the
Catholic Charities Association the other night the
hardest pull is still ahead Of us.
More than ever is it necessary now for everyone
who can to help those who cannot help themselves.
Looked at in one way, it should not be burden but
joyous privilege to be able to feel that one has done
something for the benefit Of somebody else There is
no satisfaction in life like the satisfaction of unset
fish service And now if ever is the time when those
satisfactons available to everybody, everywhere

Most Valuable Tapestry

After being lost for many years,
a tapestry, declared to be the most
valuable in France, was found la
a dusty closet in the church Of st.
Eustache. one Of the largest
churches in Paris. The discovery
was the result Of following up an
old legend, long told In ecclesias-
tical circles, that very valuable
work Of art In the form OF cloth
was hidden in one Of the Paris
churches. A number of churches
were searched, and finally in a for
gotten cupboard high up in the
sacristy of st. Enstache, the tapes
try was discovered. The tapestry,
which is on view at the church. has
the Bourbon arms entwined with
palms. The outer edge Is In lilies,

A Liberty To Be Preserved

Two hundred years ago Peter Zenger, publisher
Iof the New York Gazette was imprisoned by the
Royal Governor of the Colony of New York because
he dared to criticize the Governors actions in his
newspaper
A jury set Zenger free after he had lain in jail
for several days. and declared it to be the right of
avery free man speak and write his opinions freely
on any subject even the Roya! Governor.
From that day on the freedom of the press has
been one of Americas most cherished traditions. MI
nerous attempts have been made to place the news
oapers of the nation under Governmental control.
Under the Infamous Alien and Sedition Act, at the
beginning Of the last century, many editors were i'm
orisoned for saying what they thought of those in
thority and their actions. But greatly public

the United States the guaranteeing the right

Lately there have been renewed efforts in many
|quarters to control the Press Of America Not only
local and state authorities have tried to dictate what
shall and shall not be printed but there have been
hints and threats from those high in the Federal Gov

It is time now when the trial Of Peter Zenger is being
celebrated as great historical event. to declare once

ROOSEVELT HITS
DEATH PENALTY
Tells Newspaper Men He Would
Like to See 1t Abolished
in United States.

President Roosevelt does not believe
in capital punishment and personally
would like to see 1t abolished in all
parts of the United States.
Mr.. Roosevelt revealed his attitude
toward this question at his bi-weekly
press conference yesterday. but made 1t
plain he looked upon the matter as
legislative in nature. He gave no indi-
cation that he has any intention Of
urging his views on Congress.
While discussing the subject, the
President intimated he had given the
question considerable thought, espe-
cially while Governor of New York
He pointed out, however, that virtually
every law enforcement officer with
whom he had discussed the subject was
of the opinion that capital punishment
is deterrent to murder
The Presidents expression OF views
on the subject came In reply to Ques-
ton as to his opinion concerning pros
poets Of renewed agitation for abolish
ing the death penalty in the District of
Columbia. He said he knew Of no such
movement.
Mr.. Roosevelt has not discussed this
subject with Col. william Peak, super
intendent of the Lorton Reformatory
and for many years superintendent oi
the District Jail, or Capt. M. M Barn
ard, in charge of all local penal insti-
tutions. Both, however, are known tt
believe capital punishment does not
necessarily discourage persons whit
would commit murder. Both officeri
oppose the death penalty.
1t Is expected that Representative
Mcleod, Republican, Of Michigan,
member of the House District Commit
tee. will again introduce this bill putin;
an end to capital punishment In tn
District. He had introduced the meas
ure several times before.

Currency Play Superficial
They are playing with the currency
only specifically, but they are trying
to find every possible way of getting
money out into the hands of the people.
It means the 1000, 900 reliefers will
have at least one-third more money to
spend than they have had. Also it
means that the frozen public works
