PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT WOULD
USE A DANGEROUS WEAPON.


cord with President Roosevelt in most
of his program to revive industry and
lead the country back to prosperity
We are willing to cooperate with him
in nearly all of it, insofar as it falls
within our power to do so His endeavor
of this week to line up all industries,
stores and the entire business life Of
the nation in campaign for shorter
hours, better wages and more employ
ment, is commendable. 1t is being given
whole-hearted cooperation by the ma
ton
Throughout the entire life of the de-
preston this newspaper has paid its
employees wages far in excess of the
minimum now laid down by the Presi-
dent. For many months it has been
working said employees less than the
number of hours asked, having been
forced to that by restricted business.
So far, we will still have no difficulty
in living up to the hour requirements
of the Presidents code. But neverthe-
less we are behind the President in
this endeavor to better conditions and
we readily signed the agreement even
though it may eventually mean more
cost to us. We are one of the NJ r. A.
un rite fhar< G..
to give the President credit for what
he is doing and because we intend
to criticize one feature of his pro-
gram
President Roosevelt asks signers of
his code to agree to patronize those
establishments displaying NJ r. A. in
sigma in their windows. In that stip-
ulation there is an implied threat Of
boycott 1t is being so understood by
the nation. The word boycott is being
freely used by the press. The president

clubs is out in patriotic fervor calling
upon all club women of the nation to
make the boycott effective and not
to buy of those establishments not dis
playing the N. r. A. sign.
That's wholly un-American and un-
fair. We had always supposed boy
colt in Amrica was illegal. No presi-
dent or other official, high or low, has
the right to force man into a GER
tain line Of action with the threat of
business ruin if he does not comply.
What does an official in Washington
know about the ability of a man il
some far distant village to comply with
the restrictions Of this code? Practically
nothing Such compliance might mean
ruin to him. This use Of force under
threat Of boycott is entirely wrong.
Walter Lippman, eminent and ma
tionally known political writer, dis
cusses this phase of the Presidents
code and we quote him below. But we
wish to speak Of greater danger in
herent In this action. This use of a boy
colt is establishing a dangerous prec-
edent. Perhaps in the present instance
it may not do much harm. But imagine
what injustice could result from it in
the future. Suppose a president should
sit in Washington who is not ruled
by the high ideals of the present Roose-
velt. Suppose such one might be
principally politician or under the
control Of sinister forces. He becomes
determined to force policy onto the
country and he declares everyone
must follow him or suffer the penalty
of boycott. That would be phase
of ezarism wholly out of place in any
country where justice and liberty are

Extend the
Merit System

A United States Senator
from a Southern State has
recently found it necessary
to seek refuge on the floor Of
the Senate before that body
convenes in order to attend
to his correspondence in re,
gard to legislation and tc
k Keep important appoint
ments. He has had to keep
away from his office in order
to escape a long line Of job
seekers that assemble there
every morning. He has had
to hire extra help in order to
acknowledge the applications
for jobs that arrive in every
mail.
No reorganization Of the
Federal Government will
bring any ultimate benefits
to the American people
which does not improve the
existing method of distribut-
ing Federal patronage.
1t can best be improved
by an extension of the merit
system so that all candidates
for minor Federal Offices
postmasters, collectors of
customs, marshals, collectors
of internal revenue, and the
like-will be appointed only
after a fair and thorough
examination to test their fit
ness to serve the public and
not merely the politicians.
Grover Cleveland was not
only a true Democrat and a
strong President. He was
also a great American. He
did not say that public Of
flee was "the big stick
with which a Congress could
be influenced. He did not
say that public office was a
payment for political ser
vice. Cleveland said:

trust"

SHORT JOURNEYS
By Temple Manning

Whenever a cruise boat visits
Madeira there are always pas
sengers ready to leave the boat
and stay a while in this charm
ing, restful spot in the Atlantic.
It has much to offer and Fun
chal is really worth far more
than just a tourists hurried
survey. Seen from the bay the
town is lovely, with its houses
and streets climbing the ter
raced sides of a vast natural
amphitheater of hills that circle
the bay and keep the island SO
sheltered.
If you wish to be lazy, to just
loaf in grand surroundings, Ma
deira is the place for you. And,
if you are of the type that
likes to explore, to go places
and be an energetic collector of
sights, then Madeira will please
you, too. One can bask all day
in the balmy sun, out on the
beaches. One can sit in lovely
gardens, one can play tennis
or golf on a grand new course.
Or one can visit the club
and spend little money on a
game of chance across the
green-covered tables. Lots OF
lazy folk spend their time
between the flower-covered gar
dens of their hotels and the
beach. Many of the hotels
have their own private beaches,
we'll equipped. Some of the
hotels are beautifully set near
banana plantations, where the
soft turquoise sea can be
glimpsed between heavy green
foliage. Nature has certainly
been lavish in Madeira.
Beauty Everywhere
One can stroll the hillsides
covered with vineyards; every
where is beauty, no matter in
which direction one travels or
looks. The streets of Funchal
and other towns are paved
with huge cobblestones, and so
the usual method of transpor-
tation is by the caro-, a roomy,
ox-drawn sleigh. Something
like it is the tobegganing
sleigh whereby one achieves the
descent from the heights OF
Monte. 1t is grand, hair
raising trip and every visitor
takes it.
A wonderful excursion is the
motor drive to Sac Vicente, on
the far side of the island and
entirely surrounded by steep

The Deep Ridley Mystery

New York has strange murder mystery,
worthy of famous detectives and detective story writers Of

Now the old man. forced at last to leave his
millions behind is found murdered his tiny underground
office and murdered beside him his secretary younger

lives?

The Fight Against
Prison Employment

Congress can give the
President a glaring ex-
ample Of how a greedy
minority of manufacturers
is attempting to defeat the
efforts Of the Roosevelt
administration to raise the
standard and reduce the
cost of administering Fed
eral prisons.
This greedy minority is
circularizing members of
Congress with a demand
that the textile mill at the
Atlanta Penitentiary be
abolished. This mill was
established during the war
by special act Of Congress
which ordered the building
of such a plant for the
manufacture of canvas used
chiefly by three Govern
ment departments.
Only an infinitesimal
amount Of the total cotton
goods produced in this
country is made by Fed

Invisible Government
And the Amendment

Congress carried out the
will Of the people by ap-
proving this proposal and
submitting it to the States
for ratification nine years
ago. The forces Of "the
invisible government" have
opposed its ratification by
the legislatures in every
State in the Union. But
they are waging a losing
fight. Michigan has just
given it's legislative consent
to ratification and the New
Hampshire legislature will
soon follow her example.
When New Hampshire
ratifies, the native State OF
Daniel Webster will be the
twelfth to give it's leglsla-
tive consent to this urgent
ly-needed safeguard for the
youth Of the country.
Not until the forces of
special privilege, however,
have been defeated at the
State Capitols Of "a more
States, can Congress get the
power which this amend
ment will confer "to limit,
regulate and prohibit the
work of persons under Is
years Of age"

mountains. The road across
the island is we'll worth visiting.
At various points it cleaves
mountains and one looks down
on deep and fearsome gorges.
At one point the road runs
through a deep and gloomy
cavern and then it winds a
perilous course along a steep
bluff. It enters deep ravine
until at length the summit of
the steep mountain pass is
reached and one sees a glorious
valley and beautiful woods slop-
ing away to the blue water
thousands of feet beneath where
the whitecapped waves of the
Atlantic break against the rocks.
Hunting Espada
The island is girdled with
steep rocks. Here and there
are tiny fishing villages, with
little natural harbors. Steam
ers give visitors a chance to
sail from harbor to harbor
and so explore Madeira in a
novel fashion. There is a love-
ly Old World fishing village,
Machio, whose women are
skilled in fine embroidery.
Much of the finer work on
sale in the shops Of Funchal
is made by the women of Ma
chico. They sit alongside the
road and work while the men
build and weave chairs.
The Madeiran fisherman is
an adept at his craft and Wis
itors often arrange to go out
with them to hunt the espada.
This snake-like fish is taken
from deeper water than any
other fish in the world and it
is a great thrill to any dis
ciple of IZaak Walton to go
after the espada.
All in all, days pass lazily in
Madeira. The days are warm,
but in the cool of the evening
one can walk, play tennis, and
later on dance beneath the
stars.
The Washington times., 1933-05-15

Special Privilege was given
a permanent niche in the
Hall of Infamy when it was
denounced as "the invisible
government" by a real pro-
gressive of Theodore Roose-
welt s time-the late Senator
Albert j. Beveridge Of In
diana.
Now, as always, the sinis-
ter forces of "the invisible
government" are active on
every front. The common
objective Of all their sapping
expeditions is to defeat the
will of the people by nullify-
ing their legislation and un-
dermining the government
established by their Consti-
tuition.
President Roosevelt gave a
timely illustration in his re-
cent radio address Of the
power of "the invisible gov
ernment" in the field of in
dustry when he said:
"H is probably true that
ninety per cent of the cotton
manufacturer would agree to
eliminate starvation W0ges,
would agree to stop long hours
of employment, GOould agree to
stop child labor, WOuld agree
to preUent an oUerProduction
that would result in unsdL0ble
surpluses. But, whGt good is
such an agreement If the other
ten per cent of cotton manu-
fdcturers pay starvation WdGes,
require long hours, employ chill
dren in their mills and turn out
burdensonne surpluses? The un-
fair ten per cent could produce
goods so cheoply that the fair
ninety per cent Would be COM
PEELED to meet the unfair con-
ditions."
This is precisely what has
happened to the proposed
amendment to the Federal
Constitution designed to
eradicate the evils of child
labor.

ONCE OVERS

Many persons don't and
won't give credit to one who
has forged ahead.
These persons seldom speak
Of him without injecting the
thought that his wife is re-
sponsible for his success, and
not infrequently they say that
she lays out or actually per-
forms some Of his work for
him.
It Is true that often opinions
expressed by a wife and de
ductions made by her are used
by the husbands to good advan-
tage-and why not?
Two intelligent, thinking per
sons should be of great assist
ance to each other. Both should
develop to a greater degree of
efficiency. and be able to do
better and more worthwhile
work.
