Looking Backward

IN the year 10, when America
l. has become a cooperative COM
monwealth, somebody Will sit down
to write history of the events
leading up to this epoch-makinp
change. 1t may be that he will
dismiss Franklin D. Roosevelt
nightly and briefly as a leader who
did no more than scratch the sur
face.
But l hope that the historian of
this undated day will be a little
wiser than that. II is my notion
that the shrewd observer who looks
back will have some comprehension
OF the fact that there might well
be a saying. Scratch Capitalism
and Catch Communism"
When a canal or a great irriga-
tion project is TO be begun. it is
customary to let some dignitarv
take up the first spoonful of earth
with golden shovel. And when he
mas completed his chors. much re-
mains TO be done But at least IL

see no great point in slam
banging away at Franklin d. Roose-
welt on the ground that he isn't
radical enough, when so many mil
lions are not radical at all. In the
light of findings about the machine
age and the efficiency Of modern
production. the forty-hour week is
much too long in any industry. But
II Is better than the forty-eight-
hour week.
AT the very least. America has
been touched with the consciousness
that salvation lies in planned pro-
duction. We are beginning to FACE
the fact that labor-saying devices
must be exactly that and not me-
diums with which to increase the
number Of the unemployed.

iron work is heavier and delivers
only about 1900 strokes a minute.
A few months after a stonecutter
begins to use the air hammer, his
hands turn white and become numb
and cold. When the man washes
his hands in cold water in the
morning, he is likely to have an
attack even more than when actu-
ally using the hammer.
In right-handed men the third
fourth and fifth fingers, and more
rarely the second finger of the left
hand. are the ones chiefly involved.
In left-handed men it usually is the
right hand that is involved.

She doesn't seem TO consider the
fact that there probably are several

it is no more than fair that the
government these men helped to

The chief cause for this expose is
found in the employment Of I'M
