Loaning of Money a
Dubious Experiment
To the Editor of The eta,


II it did not work for Hoover. vhy
VIII 1t work for Roosevelt? Meaning
the extension of credit to support the
expansion drive. Trying to loan money
10 people who cannot use It, VINO can
not pay even low interest, is a dubious
experiment. However, there is much
nope IN an alternative, already op-
erative and due for expansion, and the
easy borrowing may yet come in handy.
When the Government buys hogs and
distributes them free to the unemployed,

button OF income which amounts t.

Actually there Is no way of ESTIMATING
accurately the earning power of any
body. but most swollen fortunes, and
many lesser ones, are manifestly not
the product of the owners toll. Re-
gardless of method, some people have
been receiving too much income. while
too little; the cumulative effect has re-
duced the purchasing power Of the de-
spoiled. with inevitable stagnation of
business. Indirect loaning Of money,
by the despoilers to their victims, win
mean only temporary stimulation, to be
followed by another reaction when the
borrowed money has to be paid back.
Restitution, whenever possible. Of
wealth wrongfully taken, but certain
reversal Of the wrong practice, Is neces-
sary for anything like universal pers
manent prosperity. w. G. DUNCAN.

Correction as to
Radio Education
To the Editor Of The Star:

10 the EDITOR OF The Star:
On Page A-12 of The Evening Star for
September rs. 1888, there is an article
entitled Radio Ownership Is Debate
Subject" Although substantially true.
there are few inconsistencies in this
article which may confuse the readers.
In the first place, the National Com
mittee on Education by Radio, Of
which am secretary, is not the Radio
Committee of the National Education
ASSOCIATION, but Is representative
democratic organization controlled by
nine educational groups, one Of which,
and one only, is the National Education
Association. This organization. al
though controlled by nine representa-
tives OF these nine groups, is not de-
pendent upon any one of them for
finances, but Is supported by q grant
from one of the foundations
The National Advisory Council on
Radio in Education has always taken
the position that it neither approves
nor disapproves Of the present Amer
lean broadcasting practice; that It's
cuties are such that it can take no po-
connected with radio
were noted: First, the name of the
president Of the National Advisory
Council on Radio In Education, which
is DR.. Robert A. Millikan rather than
DR.. Robert F. Milliken." The other Ia
the use OF the name National Exten-
sion University Association" rather
than the Committee on Debate Mate
rlals and Interstate Cooperation of the
national University Extension Associa-
ton"
You will pardon my apparent I'M
pertinence In calling your attention to
these errors, but there is 50 much pro
and con discussion about the radio
question and SO much writing being
done by individuals who do not have a
thorough grounding In the radio edu-
cation field that 1t is not surprising
tnat they occur. TRACY F. TYLER.

THIS AND THAT
BY CHARLES z. TRACEWELL.

This Is a good thought to keep In
mind. especially in regard to the home
lawn, at once the pride and private
despair OF many gardener.
'The grass Is always greener in the
other fellows yard" indeed.
There is . certain pleasure in fooling
around with lawns that Is not to be
found in any other department Of gar
dening.
This Is well, since 1t seems that many
home gardener Is doomed to put
study and care on his plot spaces given
over to grass.
There is a certain pleasure for most
human beings in overcoming din1culties,
provided they are not Of q haraSsing
nature and are not too trying.
All the thrill of Overcoming" so
much extolled, is here found in little,
right in ones own backyard or maybe
front lawn.
Sometimes a front lawn will die out
IN Autumn when the rear yard stays
nice and green. Different conditions,
such as sofi and light. have q great deal
to do with this.
Or it may be nothing more than the
fact that the front grass was seeded,
whereas the rear was Sodded. Or 1t
might be Just the other way>around.
One householder, in running the lawn
mower over the front yard as matter
Of course, although there was not much
to cut, discovered that the only place
the grass was really growing was on
the parking on the far side Of the pub
lie sidewalk.
Those who sowed seed early this
month now md 1t coming up nicely
hAt ma NJ
may be smothered out next Summer,
when the old blades return In force. but
for the time being it helps out consider
ably.
The lawn Is by no means perfect
well, what Of it?
1t Is better than no grass at all-that
is one way to look at 1t, and q very
healthful way, too; he who sees what
good he can In his lawn. and does not
take 1t too seriously, will not run the
danger Of letting the grass bore him.
As strange as 1t may seem, many per-
sons are fearfully bored with their
lawns. Because they have not been
able to reach perfection in this depart
ment Of gardening they 60 to the other
extreme and think that nothing can be
done.
There Is no need for any one feeling
that because q picture lawn cannot be
achieved very satisfactory one may
not be. The truth is that there are few
picture lawns except in pictures.
Carefully go over even the best OF
them, you will discover that there Is
many bare spot and many a weed.
\ i
The truth seems to be nearer the
ordinary ideal, Just good lawn. but
one which must not be inspected too
closely or with too critical an eye.
A Attle green will go long way in
q lawn in Winter, and fortunately the
so-called Summer grass Is very much
In evidence IN its season.
Those who lament the state Of their
grass should make q determined effort
to better it by sowing more seed in
the best two months, March and Sep
tember. 1t Is almost too late for Fall
sowing now, but it might be tried.
With a fortunate four weeks succeed
ing, a good crop of grass might be
grown even now. especially when sur
rounded, as 1t would be, by older plants.
which would act as a sort Of cover"
or nurse" grass for the new blades.

more veterans Is expected to be re-
sumed during the coming Winter.
Thousands Of cases Of veterans' disa-
bility and compensation are being re-
viewed this Summer by boards especial
ly designated to pass upon them.
Mr.. Curren Is himself a member of
the American Legion. So, indeed, are
many other members Of the Economy
League. which the American Legion
onlcials have attacked on several occa-
sions. Mr.. Curren contends that the
American people are entitled to know
the attitude Of the Legion and its
onacials toward this principle Of COM
pensation for war-service- ce-connected
disabilities and no compensation for
disabilities not SO connected. He asks
three questions in his letter to the
national commander Of the Legion,
Louis A. johnson. The first is whether
the American Legion holds that war
service is the duty of every citizen
fitted for such service. The second, Is
whether the Legion believes that vet
Grams disabled by their war service
and their dependents are entitled ito
generous treatment by the Federal
Government" The third asks whether
the Legion believes that veterans
should receive no payment for disabil-
tiles not due to their war service"
The answers to the first and second
questions carry no difnculties for the
Legion or for any citizen Of the United
States. Any American worthy the
name would agree that a citizen owes
service to his country In time of war.
Any American would agree that men
disabled through war service are en-
titled to aid from their Government.
The crux Of the whole matter lies IN
the third question. The reply of the
Legion commander, and of the Legion
itself, to this third question is Of vital
interest to the whole country.

mail robbery IN one Of the large cities
In this country and special precautions
were then taken to protect the postal
matter from thieves. Evidently they
have been relaxed. although crime Is
o. rife now q then. In the present
condition 1t Is unsafe to trust to the
ordinary safeguards. The gangs have
not been broken up and In every large
city there are numbers Of men idle and
desperate who are looking for chances
to steal.
No postal matter should be 50 han
died Is to be exposed at any stage to
theft. If vans cannot be backed d.
rectly up to the doors Of receiving
stations the platforms should be always
guarded. The truth y that state of
war exists. and every provision should
be made to prevent successful attack.
Investigation Of the Boston robbery
should be immediate and thorough,
not merely to determine If possible the
identity Of the thieves. but to correct
the system Of mail handling to insure
greater security hereafter.

The Boston Mail Theft.

Regardless of how much they got,
and whether or not they were armed,
the feat of the three robbers who stole
three sacks Of registered mail from q
truck at a Boston railway station yes
terday is a serious reflection upon the
system of mail transport. The men
had been hanging around the place
for some time before the robbery was
committed, but, being roughly garbed,
were looked upon as post ONCE 1aborers
reporting for extra work. No attention
was paid to them. One account Of the
affair states that the thieves had con-
cealed themselves in telephone booths
near the receiving room Of the postal
station and rushed the trucks a. the
money was being removed to be placed
on board the trains. Evidently there
was no armed guard on duty, or If so
It was ineffective.

Free Chained Bears
On the Skyline Drive
To the Editor Of The Star:

To the Editor of The Star:
During q recent automobile trip over
the wonderful Skyline Drive and through
the beautiful Blue Rridge Mountains of
Virginia I observed, and with pity, a
number of bears penned and chained
under inhuman conditions at several
gas filling stations and eating places
along the route, just miniature ZOOS
kept for the purpose of attracting
patronage. Not in a single instance
was there a semblance Of natural
habitat or environment
We have All read of and many have
seen and enjoyed the antics of the
bears In Yellowstone and other of our
western national parks, and it is my
opinion that our own native bears also
deer, would soon become as much of an
attraction as the western species, If
protected
Why not have laws passed that would
prohibit the capture, caging or chain
ing of these poor innocent creatures.
purchase those already in captivity
along the line Of travel over both the
Allegheny and Blue Ridge highways,
and liberate them for the benefit and
enjoyment of the tourist public and
their own Joyous freedom?
The animals referred to have all been
captured during their cub period, and
In most instances the mother bear had
been killed 50 as to make the capture
OF the babies an easy task
No scenery in the United States sur
passes that which may be seen and
enjoyed along the routes In Virginia,
North Carolina and Tennessee, and I
am making an especial appeal for the
protection Of the innocent wild crea-
lures that make these mountains and
sanctuaries their habitat.
It would be wise and humane action
on the part Of the Virginia Legislature
to set the good example by passing such
q law. feel sure that it would receive
the approval of a great majority of the
liberty loving people of that great State
and at the same time help to preserve
a species that is fast being exterminated

Hitler's Program a
MOnstrOus Ideology
To the Editor Of The Star:

To the Editor Of The Star:
Mr.. Wyman's letter in The Star Of
September Is about the racial megalo-
mania in Mani Germany Is valuable
contribution to the cause Of liberty and
truth. The importance Of informing the
American people Of the extent Of Nazi
violence and persecution Of minority
groups and the absurdity and basenesa
Of tribal phobia in that country cannot
be overstated.
Anti-Semitism is an old tune played
by former German leaders for parade
Of Chauvinism, and Hitler exploited 1t
thoroughly to attain his ambition. He
set about inflaming prejudice and hate
on the part of % per cent Of the popu-
lation against the Jewish ! per cent.
In his campaign speeches he persis-
tently screamed: For our liberation
we need spite, hatred, hatred, and once
more hatred for the Jews" He insisted
that anti-Semitism is the bedrock of
explain how the 100000 unemployed
Germans would find jobs once the 100.-
600 employed Jews are destroyed. OF
course, anti-Semitism is no solution at
all, but 1t serves his political purpose
A German Christian pastor writes:
"Hitler's anti-Semitic agitation sur
passes by far all past anti-Semitic
propaganda, and the immortality Of the
methods has increased in the same
measure. BY batting, lying. slandering,
forging, tnSinuating, In word and print,
the NaA party oyershadows all previous
achievements at mass suggestion. The
level Of taste has sunk far below any
human dignity"
Jews have been settled for 800 years
In the territory now known as Ger
many. During the last so years they
have completely identified themselves
with Germany. Not less than Of the
80 German winners Of the Nobel prize
have been Jews. During the World
War every bodied German Jew
served in the army and $4,000 of them
laid down their lives for that country.
Yet Hitler's program for the ages
Is directly leveled against the liberty OF
Jews as citizens Of Germany. 1t is a
monstrous and stupid theology. and the
seriousness Of the Nazi frame of mind
Is not the injustice to Jews as much
as the resultant depreciation of the hui
man spirit which plans such action.
Moreover, the world cannot afford to
let this barbarian trend to mount. Anti
Semitism is no longer a local matter;
1t Is now an international concern.

Will America Now Pet
Another Pretty Kitty?
To the Editor Of The Star:

10 the Editor OF The Star:
It should not necessarily be consid-
cred conclusive evidence Of weak
mindedness when person attempts to
pet a skunk. To one who has never
before seen one of these odiferous ami
mails it Is an interesting and cute little
creature. Its very appearance often
creates a desire for petting party on
the part Of the uninitiated Invariably,
If this desire is yielded to, the results
are disastrous to the peter. But do
not arbitrarily put the petter in the
category Of imbeciles. He may never
have seen skunk before. If, however,
he attempts to pet another skunk be-
fore the odor of the last one is out of
his nostrils, then he is indeed mentally
hopeless.
The American people tried to PICK
up and pet several European skunks
back in 1917. We accumulated an odor
that will cling to us for generations to
come and that cost us several billions
Of dollars. Trus, we didn't know they
were skunks at the time, even though
unpleasant odors had emanated from
them occasionally, which should have
warned US that they were far from
being the right sort.
When 1t comes to honesty I would
not trust these European chiselers with
volcano In full eruption. But I
would trust these debt defaulters before
I would trust Russia. Knowing all this
full well, the Reconstruction Finance
Corporation is contemplating loaning
Russia $75,000,000 Of the American
peoples money with which to buy
American cotton and metals. If the
r. r. c. does this thing, can you picture
these barbarians paying back a nickel
Of it? They are laughing in their
sleeves now at the very thought Of
having an opportunity of rocking the
Yankee imperialistic, capitalistic Gov
ernment" out Of such q huge sum.
We have hardly finished burying our
clothes and yet here we are calling
Kitty! Kitty!" and trying to pet an
other OF the cute little animals! Isn't
1t plain to even the most stupid that
our heads need examining?
