Smiths Uns0und Money
IN " World TeIepran,)

According to Alfred E. Smith, 1.-The
latest fiscal moves OF the administra-
ton have undermined the public con-
sidence." He uses rather harsh words
such as paper money printers and
"crackpots.'
Mr.. Smith would get farther with
his criticism if it were more restrained
and closer to the facts.
The administration has not lost
public confidence. IT, Mr.. Smith will
get out among the people in the coun-
try he will find that out.
Not that the general public is par
ticularly sold OH the present none
tary policy. It does not profess to be
All expert in such matters. But the
public is willing to give the President
fair chance, knowing that condi-
lions under the New Deal are much
better than under the Hoover Wall
Street old deal.
II ever the public needed to know
both sides Of an issue. it is on the
question Of initiation. But Mr.. Smith
is not doing himself or his cause any
good merely by calling names. The
public is apt to assume that he has
no better arguments to offer.
# Mr.. Smith will look at the admin
lGtration policy calmly, he will see that
there is.a great deal of difference be-
tween the Roosevelt approach and
that of the old Thomas inflationists.
Far from precipitating extreme cur
rency initiation. President Roosevelt
Blocked it in the last Congress. Ger
tainly there is nothing extreme about
his gold-trading policy so far.
We share Mr.. Smiths fear of UNI
controlled initiation. Uncontrolled in
flation would be as disastrous as this
uncontrolled depression deflation, and
would produce equally unsound money.
Congress, by all reports, is apt to go to
extreme printing press initiation. The
only thing that can prevent 1t. appar-
entity, is success of the Roosevelt re-
flation to the point of an honest dol
lar.

Using the 1926 dollar to represent 100,

something like that Of the school,

She feels she is keeping you out OF
mischief by providing something Tor
you to do in your spare time.
This is the time Of year when the
homework hounds get in their most
telling blows against the health and
happiness of high school children.
The reason why homework is such q
heavy part of the high school cur
riculum in backward towns is that
parents there are too dumb and too
weak to have any opinions about the
evil or to say or do anything about It.
The incompetent teachers who are
the chief offenders size up the par
ents and decide that such inferior
persons can be dominated easily
enough. Homework is q great insti-
tution-it lets the teacher out with
a minimum Of effort, responsibility
and ability.
The arguments poorly trained teach
ers offer In favor Of homework are

The New War in Germany


but shudder little as they view the
makings Of 4 new religious war roll
Ing up on the horizon in Germany.
That land has been the scene Of
many bloody conflicts based on Diff
ferences In religious outlook and now
another seems inevitable.
On the one hand We have the Nazi
Christians who have taken-or at
tempted to take-complete control of
the Protestant churches. They would
throw out from the shrines the image
Of Christ crucified and substitute
therefor the picture Of q little man
With a shoe -dauber mustache.
But II the German Protestant
church has recently known grievous
aggression 1t also seems likely to
know strong defense. Thousands
Of sincere and able churchmen are
chatting under the yoke. The Asso-
ciated Press tells W. that schism Is
near and then the world will again
have the spectacle Of men languish-
ing in prison rather than give up
their religious principles or violate
the tenets Of . Divine calling.
German Catholics, less numerous
but probably more strongly organized,
face the same situation, for no re-
ligion means anything to Hitlerism
except as it conforms to and bows
before the dictates OF the state. In
this crisis Catholics are one with the
Protestants.
Hence. news dispatches tell us, a
priest has been sent to prison for
making remarks from his pulpit which
were calculated to disturb the public
peace" Others will doubtless follow,
for the preacher or priest who is
worthy OF the name never retreats
from the high position to which he
has been called. He can take no
other position than that the word OF
Christ is imperishable.
These things mean trouble in Ger
many Of type which we in America
find it difficult to comprehend. We
have enjoyed freedom Of worship so
long and 1t has become so funda-
mental with US that we can hardly
conceive Of q condition where such
Is not the case. In America a mans
religion is his own business and
neither the state nor his fellows has
a right to interfere, provided his ex-
ercise Of that freedom conforms to
the broad base made possible by the
constitution.
Queer cult practices have been sup
pressed at times. 1t Is true, but only
when they infringed on the rights of
others outside the purely religious
field.
What the immediate outcome OF
the situation In Germany will be no
one can foreteu. It Is possible that
all religion, other than that pre-
scribed by the state, will be trampled
in the dust and nonconformists of
whatever faith will be reduced to 81
lcnce, put in jail. or driven from the
country.
But the final outcome is inevitable.
In struggle against the inward Inn
pulses and the consciences Of It's peo-
pie no state can win In the end. His
tory is replete with instances where
government has tried to muzzle re-
ligion or to direct the religious in
stinct to its own ends. Every one of
them has failed and a reviyified and
more glorious church has risen from
the ruins wrought by persecution.
It will be so in Germany. Hitler
should pause before he continues as
he has started. This policy. more
than any other, contains the seeds
Of his eventual destruction.
