THE BISHOPS SPEAK

TIMELY is the warning of the seven
bishops of the National Catholic Welfare
Conference that America should adopt not
only a new economic, but a new moral, code
for industry.
The philosophy that permits individuals,
corporations, and nations to accumulate as
much wealth as they can, according to the
unfair methods of modern business, and to
use such accumulated wealth as they see fit"
the bishops declare, is un-Christian and God
less, because it denies the oneness and soil
darity of mankind"
few capitalists have rendered life for
the workers insecure and have made the
machine a curse rather than the blessing it
should be-" If these-"perhaps not even q
hundred men who control the financial des-
TIMES Of the country"-agreed ito cooperate
with the government and with the masses
they have so wronged, and have it written
into our legislation that capital in the future
shall receive fair return on it's investments
and nothing more, it would go far toward set
ting in motion the wheels of industry and
solving the problem of unemployment"
Wealth must be distributed more equitably
Corporations must cease their "clandestine
manipulation of trust funds and earned sur
plus" Their management must take less from
wealth in salaries and bonuses. Taxation must
not favor the rich at the expense of the poor
Social justice" say the bishops, working
in behalf of the common good, requires that
the masses not possessing property rise to a
degree of ownership. The chasm between
owners-the relative few-and nonowners-the
vast majority-must be bridged by a distribu-
ton of ownership through thrift and real
sharing of profits not merely proft-sharing
in name"
The bishops statement recalls the de-
nunciation by the pope last year of the pres
ent economic order as hard cruel and re-
lentless in CHASTITY measure"
These Catholic declarations are similar to
the statements by the Federal Council of
Churches and other Protestant bodies in favor
of a new economic system. They should
hearten the President and members of con-
gress in the fight for the industrial recovery
bill.

THE DEBS DEBOUCH

T Asst autumn the Junior League emerged
~ into politics by voting 5000 to 300 for
repeal of the eighteenth amendment.
Now it has shouldered the musket of eco
nonlic reform. Inspired by a speech Of the
picketing Mrs Clifford Pinchot and possibly
by visit to Valley Forge, the league, at its
annual convention in Philadelphia, passed a
resolution. 1t urged that the Junior League
acquaint its members with wage and working
conditions that prevail in the factories, shops
and stores in their neighborhoods and to take
an active part, through the molding of civic
consciousness, to secure the eradication Of
such unhealthy and uneconomical conditions
as may threaten the welfare of our citizens"
Whether driven by apprehension or SYM
pathy or a new awareness of impending
change, here is a praiseworthy action. The
new debutantes apparently are finding
broader meaning for the word social" than
that of the tea variety

1T CAN BE DONE

nNE League of Nations functions 100 per
~ cent. 1t has no temple of permanent
residence, no panoply of armed force and
only simple voluntary organization, but it's
DEGREES appear to have irresistible power.
The tangible representatives of this league
is the International Olympic committee, and
its main business is regulation of the modern
Olympic games. incidentally, however it
can do other and much more amazing things.
1t can curb human folly, even when such
folly has neared insanity
The next Olympic games will be held in
Berlin in 1886 because the Hitler govern
ment has consented to remove the ban on
German Jewish athletes. This action was
due primarily to the insistence of American
members of the Olympic committee, headed by
Brigadier- General Charles H Sheriff.
If Hitlers can be controlled so easily in
the name of sport, why should it be so difficult
to shackle them in the interest of universal
peace and progress?

OUR ECONOMIC WEAKNESS

A S the long drama of the Morgan investi-
cation continues in that sweltering COM
mittee room at Washington, the ordinary
American begins to get clear picture of
state of affairs which he frequently had sur
missed, but at which he never before had
gotten really good look
The financial world is a place of mystery
and wonder to most of us We have known
that it was place where vast sums of money
could be made-and lost as well-and we
had dim feeling that what went on there
was ultimately of great Importance even to
non-investors; but the most of us never got
more than confused and hazy idea of how
it all was done
Now our eyes are being opened
Security issues that go to insiders at bar
gain rates before they find their way into the
open market; wealthy men who have found a
fool-proof way of defeating the income tax
by year-end sales Of stock; the formation of
holding companies with the public's money
devised so that cleaSr manipulators can hold

the strings to far-fung industrial combines:
interlocking series Of loans so complex that
even the man who negotiated them can not
remember how it was done without looking
at his private records-all of these things
brought into the open by Ferdinand Pecora's
acknowledgements us with an invaluable
object-lesson in the way our country gets run
Now the general run Of these operations
were not wrong legally; most of them in
fact, gagged by current standards, were not
even wrong morally
We had devised the kind Of economic and
social set-up which made it necessary for the
financing Of big affairs to be conducted in that
way. To get indignant at the individuals
directly concerned is to miss the point entirely.
For the real point of it all, of course, is
that it was our whole basic system that was
at fault. This has been said before, to be
sure; but it can not be said too often.
America being what it was, and our stand
ards being what they were it simply was in
evitable that tangled web of this kind be
built up over our heads
What we face now is the job of introducing
restrictions, and modifying our own view
points, SO that the important task of financing
our industries can be carried on with the
public interest the main consideration

LOOKING BACKWARD TO 1904

MYTH Chicago celebrating a Century of
W Progress in 1888 with a great modern
exposition, it is interesting to glance back
ward over the last quarter century to the time
OF the st. Louis world fair in 1904 and COM
pare what was happening then with what is
happening now. There is indeed, a striking
similarity.
A Roosevelt was in the White House then
as now.
Bicycles were in style as they are today
The free silver issue was before congress
then, as it has been this year
War was under way in Manchuria, the con-
flict between Japan and Russia matching the
recent hostilities between Japan and China
Beer was being sold legally then, as row.
Womens fashions of today are trending
back to those of that time though in much
less exaggerated form.
Maybe a cycle in American life has been
completed and 1.-The good old days" for which
we have longed actually are returning.
People were happy and fairly prosperous
In 1904 and a return to that state of affairs
could be called progress even if it did involve
travelling in an opposite direction.

LINDBERGH AND DIRIGIBLES

NTHEN considering the future of the United
w States navy's work with dirigibles. it is
instructive to consider testimony recently
given before the congressional investigating
committee by Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh.
Il feel" said Colonel Lindbergh, that it
would be unwise and unsafe to stop devel-
opment of lighter than-air craft at this time
Both lighter than-air and heavier than
air craft are inherently incomplete and young,
and I do not think that this generation. or
the next two generations can say that either
is impractical
TO stop today in development in lighter
than-air ships, in view of the lives lost and the
money spent. to my mind would be a grave
mistake.
Il believe that Hghter-than-air craft has
definite place in the future of aviation"
These words, coming from veteran pilot
who knows aviation as well as any man alive,
and who has no reason to be prejudiced about
it, are worth remembering.

A NEEDED REFORM

IT is worth noticing that the new securities
= bill just put through at Washington will
make it unnecessary in the future for SEN
ate committee to hold an expensive investi-
cation to find out what men were on the
favored lists" of firms like the House of
Morgan
The new bill provides that any corpora
tior which sells stock at varying prices first
must notify the federal trade commission,
and the names of the friends who are per-
mitted to buy below the market will be avail
able to the newspapers.
1t seems likely that this will cut down on
such extensions of privilege to favored few
Deals of that kind do not thrive in the light of
publicity.
The new securities bill provides that light
and makes certain that it will be directed
where it is most needed.

|M.E.TracySays

NTATER covers three quarters of the worlds
w surface but air covers it all. All of us
know the great change brought about in human
history by navigation Common sense suggests
that greater change will be brought about by
aviation.
Whether this change means more permanent
peace or more ruthless war is for men to de-
termine The great agencies which science is
placing at their disposal can be used for either
purpose. This is particularly true of the air.
ship.
In the end, airships will make for peace, be-
cause they will draw men closer together on the
one hand and put terror into conflict on the
other In the initial stages of their development,
however, the outlook is neither so clear nor
bright.
Like the gfown-up children that we are we
delight in playing with new toys, even to the
point of death and destruction. The idea of
air raids intrigues US We put it in our imagi-
tive works, our novels plays and movies.
We teach our children to wonder what drop
ping bombs on other people would be like, or
how trying to elude overhead foes would make
them feel.
IN a more serious vein we forever are trying
Il to figure out reliable defenses against attacks
and whether we should wait for them to occur
or strike at the source.
Every time an airplane circles the world, you
analyzing its significance in terms of strife
The most devilish feature of the airplane is
the ease with which it can be converted from
an instrument of commerce into one of destruc-
ton. Nations can go as far as they like in
prohibiting the manufacture and maintenance
Of airplanes for war purposes but as long as
airplanes exist, the danger of their employment
for war can not be eliminated.
The airplane affords a vivid illustration of
the futility Of trying to prevent war through
disarmament and of how necessary it is to
make men want to live in peace before they will
The kind of tools we are allowed to use is of
far less consequence than the kind of use we
want to make of them. Disarmament means
little, except as it helps to plant new thought
regarding the relationship of people and govern
ments to one another.
THE peace problem is one of morals rather
l. than Of mechanics. Lack of modern weapons
did not prevent our ancestors from becoming eff
cent killers. That in itself is enough to prove
that something beyond outlawing of weapons
is required.
AS to the airship. it can not be eliminated as
a potential weapon unless it is abandoned as a
vehicle Of peace, and that is asking too much
The world will not give up airships because
of the danger they represent in case of strife yet
as long as they are retained it will face that
danger.
They merely emphasize the self-evident truth
that the only hope of peace lies in the develop
ment OF character which prefers peace.
