AN OBJECT LESSON

A SMART New York department store the
other day presented one Of the best OBJ
ject lessons yet devised to show just how the
fruits of rising price level are to be reaped.
In full-page newspaper advertisement,
it printed two pictures Of mems shirts. The
shirts we're identical in appearance, in ma
terial in cut, and in workmanship. One Of
them sold for SO cents; the other for SIPS.
The 89-cent one was the shirt this store
had on its counters at the start of the sum-
mer. The other was one that is on sale now.
The man who grew the cotton for the S9-
cent shirt, the advertisement pointed out,
lost money on it. His cotton pickers got
canned goods and groceries in place of cash
wages. The workers in the textile mills that
changed the raw cotton into fabric got starva-
ton wages-around IS a week
The girls who turned the cloth into a fin
ished shirt got little bit less than that The
men who employed the workers in these es-
adjustments were not making money And
the store which sold the shirt was losing on
the deal.
But, of course, for the purchaser, it was
a bargain-Of a sort.
Now for the s125 shirt
The man who raised the cotton for it
got decent profit on his crop. He paid his
pickers in cash, not in groceries. The tex
tile workers who turned the cotton into fabric
got at least s13 a week. The girls who made
the shirt got enough money so they could
eat decently, live decently, and put off the
burden of fear.
Their respective employers were able to
make profit The store itself was able to
make money on the deal
So this shirt, for all that it cost consider
ably more than the first one, also was a bar
gain 1t had no starvation wages. no child
labor, no rising scale of losses woven into it's
fabric. 1t represented fair break for every
one concerned in its production
The first bargain was bargain built IN
human misery the second, a bargain that
promotes the welfare of the whole country
You could apply much the same sort of
reasoning to almost every commodity YOU
buy. Whatever else it may do, rising price
level at least saves us from the ruinous "bar-
gains" we have been getting in the last cou-
pie of years

ROOSEVELT AND M'KEE

DEEPLY to be deplored. we think, is Presi-
II dent Roosevelt's failure to check the
growing public conviction that, despite his
professed neutrality, he nevertheless is per-
hitting his administration at Washington
actively to back the Mckee candidacy for the
New York City mayoralty.
A press association dispatch from Wash
ington states that mo effort has been made
in any quarter to conceal the Administrations
interest or stake in the situation in New York"
That the Roosevelt administrations lin
terest in the situation in New York" has been
far from merely passive or neutral" whole
series of facts attests.
The conferences between Bronx Democratic
Leader Edward j. Flynn and Postmaster
General James A. Farley who is also national
and state Democratic chairman preceding the
announcement of the Mckee candidacy, were
no secret.
No secret, either, was President Roosevelt's
refusal to see Langdon w Post and Justice
Frederic Kernochan, who went to Washington
expressly to urge him not to do anything that
might lessen fusion's excellent chances of
beating Tammany
The Presidents failure to grant these gen.
tlemen an interview was explained by his
strict neutrality and policy of hands off,"
yet it was at the same time intimated that
the President would leave his political chief
of-staff, Postmaster General James Farley
free to give Mr.. Mckee such support as he
saw fit. The Presidents neutrality was to be
purely personal"
Then, after Mr. McKee's decision to run,
came the following:
The selection of the Roosevelt adrninistra
tons collector of the Port of New York, Harry
M. Burning, for Mckee campaign manager.
The impudent Flynn-McKee choice Of Re
coyery Party as a designation for the Nc
Kee ticket likely to suggest to voters con-
nection between the Mckee candidacy and the
Presidents great national recovery program.
Here, again, one word from the President
would have stopped this brazen use of a big
national movement as tag for a local po-
litical gamble That word has not been forth
coming. Silence gives consent.
1t is a sad thing that the city's fight to
free itself from bossed government should be
handicapped by Washington.
The President is doing himself and the
people of New York grave disservice in even
seeming to sanction a politicians venture that
can only succeed at the citys expense.
New York has right to expect more than
that from the President it helped send to
Washington.

LOOKING BACK

CHARLES EDWARD RUSSELL, after fifty
~ years of reporting and undertaking, says
the world grows better. Through populism,
Organism, two wars, many revolutions and
several depressions this veteran "Side-lne re-
former" has battled
NO" he says in his autobiography Bare
Hands and Stone Walls (Scribners), never
tell me the world grows worse or even stands
still Not swiftly. not with an even motion of
progress, not as impatient men desire it to i'm
prove. Still it grows better. 1t is immensely
better than it was fifty years ago. There is
more kindness more interest in the other
mans welfare. more impulse toward justice,
more perception of the fundamental truths of
human existence and fellowship
Yes, despite all the unSpeakable horrors
and unimaginable savageries of the World war.
Out of that maniac's dream has come the
beginnings of a conception of a substitute for
battlef1elds, and once more We can give thanks
for substantial gains"
Like Lincoln stefens, Reporter Russell was
something of an expert on American cities,
bosses, graft and privilege Even cities in
1888 are far better than they were in the
early 8OS Old Chicago. ''rowdy dirty slouchy,
aggreSSively ugly brute of place" was in
1nitely worse than Capones town today. For
the new Chicago cares; the old one didn't.
In the SOS every average American city
was ruled by greasy boss who maintained
his sway by an alliance with respectable
business men on one side and the lowest dregs
OF the underworld on the other. Elections
were tarcical. There were virtually no cleo
ton laws that were enforced. In most places
there was little or no registration of voters
and anything was a ballot that could be
stuffed into ballot box"
Mr.. Russell is neither cynic nor tired radi-
cal He has not gone Communist Through
out his life-story you see him patiently patch
ing. He hates blood and brutality He still
believes in peaceful revolution.
His autobiography while less Intimately
personal than Steffens' story, follows the same

BY An Indianapolis Citizen.
AS a resident and taxpayer in
the city for a number of years, I
feel justified in these times of eco
nomic stress and heavy tax burden
to register a citizens objection to
the police department apparently
being used as a tool by disgruntled
and petty individuals, to vent per-
sonal spite against others, or to in
dulge in the petty practice Of an
noying others who for some reason
they may dislike.
In the last two or three months
I have on different occasions been
the guest of residents in their homes,
where there was no undue noise or
disturbance and when hosts and
guests were listening to the radio
(Which in no instance was unduly
loud), carrying on a conversation in
ordinary tones, or engaged in quiet
and friendly game of cards, when
the police entered the premises and
caused considerable annoyance to
both hosts and guests by question
ing those present in a manner that
seemed to infer that the group was
composed of buns, thugs, generally
persons, and that some
law or ordinance was being vio-
lated. In each instance the state
ment was made that telephone
complaint had been received to the
effect that there was undue noise,
disturbance, etc, but in no case
could they ascertain who had made
the complaint.
In each instance there was no
undue noise or disturbance of any
kind, and to the best Of my knowl-
edge there is no law prohibiting any
citizen entertaining friends in the
manner mentioned above.
1t would seem that some one was
merely INDUCING a penchant for
causing annoyance to others, and
there certainly is no logical reason
why the services of the police de-
partment should be utilized for such
petty purposes. When a complaint
is made to the police, why should
not the complainant be required to
give complete information, includ-
ing the name, address, ETC., of the
complainant? Surely, if a COM
plant is justified, there is no rea-
son why such information should
be withheld and there certainly is
no good reason why the time of the

law applied by the central power of
wealth under the control of leading

LABOR'S RESPONSIBILITY

GENERAL JOHNSON'S speech to the
- American Federation of Labor empha-
sizes the tremendous responsibility which has
been put upon the shoulders of organized
labor in America.
That the new deal has given organized
labor a great opportunity is very evident.
Never before have union organizers had things
so much in their favor. In one blow, obstacles
that have stood in their path for decades have
been removed. Goals that seemed a genera
ton away have been passed overnight.
And General Johnson is right in stressing
the fact that with this opportunity goes a
great responsibility. Success or failure of the
vast NE2A program depends in a great measure
on the wisdom and vision with which leaders
of the A. F. of L. are able to meet it.
Fortunately, the country has every reason
for believing that these men will measure up
to the test

DANGEROUS GROUND

XTHEN the Nazi ministry of Justice pro-
posed that legal sanction be given to
the killing of persons afflicted with incur
able disease, it laid hands on one of the most
tragic and perplexing of all modern problenx
Every doctor has seen, over and over again
patients who looked forward to death as a relief.
persons who knew that they could not DOS
Sloiy recover, and who were condemned to a
painful and lingering torment while thew
waited for their maladies to reach a climax.
And every one who has thought about s,ch
tragic cases must have felt that, in at least
some instances, it would be great kindness
10 hasten deaths tardy footsteps.
But that is stating only half the case The
hldeous abuses that could arise under such
a philosophy are too obvious to need COM
ment; and the religious objections to Ger
tain aspects of it are equally apparent.
If the Nazis go through with this pronosal
they will be attempting something that no
modern society yet has had the temerity to try.

ThinQS Admitted

CURELY there is no doubt of per-
- secution Of radicals or Jews or
scientists or artists. This attitude
has been proclaimed again and again
by public leaders. The conduct OF
Germany toward Einstein is neither
a rumor nor a typographical error.
I talked only yesterday with
man who saw much of the new &C
tivitieS in Germany and he was
pessimistic about immediate better
ment because he found throughout
the land that tragic reverence which
Germans have for authority.
Somebody said once, and possibly
it was Karl Marx: The Germans
will be slow in ever achieving a revo-
luton because it is 'verboten.'
And my friend told me Of going to
great Nazi meeting on the eve Of
Hitler's election into power. He and
his guide and mentor were stopped
by a member of the Berlin police
force.
you must have police cards" said
the local patrOlman The Nazi guide
of my friend drew himself up
heartily and replied to Hans, the
cop: 1--WE have no police cards. We
do not need them. On Monday we
will be in power and then you will
be taking your orders from u.s.
"All right" said the policeman,
come back on Monday"

Teeth Health Depends on Food

Such diet supplies practically
all substances necessary for life and
does much to prevent decay Of teeth.
A Chinese investigator named Tso
believes that the liberal use of eggs
in the diet of Chinese provides them
with vitamtn D necessary for health,
and thus stimulates the absorption
OF calcium as an aid to hardening of
the teeth.
Many people have attempted to
explain the short stature of the
Chinese and japanese by the fact
that their diets contain inadequate
amounts Of vitamin D to produce
greatest growth of the long bones.
But the orientals do get enough
use of calcium in the body to make
them fairly solid with the length of
the bones that they have.
Since new knowledge of diets
has come into common use. physi-
clans throughout the world are
studying the diets of various peo-
pie and are discovering some ex-
ceedingly interesting facts about the
relationship Of diet to health, par
tlcularly the teeth.

Maybe So

BY S. NJ.
To me, the fragrant waste" of
your space on American Legion
activities is disgraceful. You de-
vote columns to the policies and
decisions of the legion convention
in Chicago, columns to the aims
of the new legion commander, but
fail to say one word about the
disgraceful manner in which the
legion acted in Chicago.
You are guilty of biased news
reporting. Not one single word
could I find in your newspaper
at any time about the immense
damage toll to Chicago hotels by
a bunch Of clod-hoppers, who once
served their country well, but now
do everything in their power to
bring shame on their organiza-
ton.
I understand that every penny
of loss was guaranteed the Chicago
hotels That, in itself, is a crime.
Why must a convention of World
war veterans be a brawl?
I'm a wet-a dripping wet. But
I have no use for men who can't
and won't hold their liquor like
gentlemen-soldiers Or no soldiers.
