CAPPER SUPPORTS
BOYS CLUB MOVE
Senator Indorses Plan to
Erect Two Buildings
for Youths.

Senator Arthur Capper, Republican,
Kansas for 10 years chairman OF the
District of Columbia Committee OF the
Senate and now ranking minority mem
Der of the same body, has announced
his Endorsement of the plan to erect Two
Boys Club buildings in Washington
with Public Works Administration help.
II have always been tremendously IN
tereSted," he said, in everything tnaI
will develop boys along lines that will
make them vigorous, intelligent, honor
able men Right at this time I feel
there is special need for efforts of this
kind. We are witnessing veritable
- tidal wave of violent crime, committed
mostly by youths and very young men.
I cannot escape the conclusion that
something is lacking in our dealings
with boys, when even before really en-
tertng manhood so many of them be-
come professional criminals.
Turn to Gangs.
Boys naturally get together in gangs,
and the kind of gang they join deter
mines pretty much the kind of men
they will become. I am sure the aver
age boy does not prefer gang of
toughs, but often that is the only gang
open to him. If he has a place where
he can meet with decent boys, he would
THAT is why in any large city boys
clubs are so important. They give every
boy chance to express his gang in
stinct-but in the best surroundings.
Every boy needs this opportunity.
THE city of Washington should be
national leader, model, in this field
Boys club work there not only will pro-
duce tangible benefits in making better
citizens from those whom it reaches di-
rectly, but will also stimulate other
cities to carry on similar activities.
am heartily in favor of the project to
erect two boys club buildings in Wash
ington, and I sincerely hope that the
Public Works Administration will feel it
can offer the necessary aid. I know
Washington pretty well from my service
in the Senate and especially through
my membership on the District of Co.
lumbit Committee, and ! feel complete
confidence in the boys club project as
worthy and indeed essential enter
prise"
Official Approval.
The plan has been approved by Com
miSsioners Hazen and Allen and is now
before Public Works Administrator Ickes
for consideration.
Frank R. Jelleff president, Washing
ton Boys Club has been the leading
sponsor of the project.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, December 11.-Dr. Wolf
Adler of Bellevue Hospital, yesterday
offered music as sedative for un-
settled nerves.
"A fond appreciation Of music by an
individual can prevent nervous dis
order" he told the American Creative
League of Music Students.
Modern psychology and psychiatry
have definitely established through its
accumulative evidences that music is
one of the most powerful agents in re-
heving and in many cases eliminating
completely nervous and mental dis
orders"

Gen. Johnson Walks Out

A good many humble Americans
will probably feel that not the least
of Gen. Hugh S. Johnson's admirable
achievements was his recent action
in putting a snooty hotel clerk in his
place.
General johnson stopped over
night at Dayton, O., and through
some mischance his baggage went
astray. A newspaper reporter accom-
panied General johnson to a hotel
and established his identity for the
benefit Of the night clerk. But the
clerk. noting the absence of baggage,
informed General johnson that in
spite Of his exalted position he could
not get a room without paying in
advance. Business was business and
rules were rlles-and, one supposes,
a hotel clerks majesty was q hotel
clerks majesty.
So General johnson, remarking,
ITO hell with this place" walked out
There are in this broad land many
hotel clerks who are courteous, oblig-
ing and intelligent. There are some,
however, like this chap in Dayton;
and a long-suffering nation Of tray
elers is apt to wish that General
johnson could call on all OF them be-
fore he gets through.

HOOverizing the Farmer

Because he feels it has an appeal
to the hard-pressed farmer, the
theme song of Governor Langer's
current speeches is price-fixing for
agricultural products. He bears no
responsibility In the matter and can
safely inportune the government to
fix minimum prices for grains and
other produce.
At first blush the proposal has
merit, but upon careful analysis 1t
loses much Of its appeal. What Gov
ernor LANCER really is proposing is to
Hooverize the farmer all over again.
1t is doubtful II agriculture could
stand such a process to be repeated
50 soon.
For fixed prices were one Of the
remedies Of the Hoover farm board.
They were device used to defraud
the farmer during the war. There
is no escaping the fact that fixed
minimum prices on farm products
always have been the maximum
prices when the trend was upward
and have failed to last when the
tendency was down.
No matter who advocates it, there
is grave doubt that another attempt
to apply the Hoover philosophy would
be beneficial.
What the farmer needs is not fix
ed prices but fair prices. There is
no question about the benefits Of
the devices now being applied to as
sist agriculture; little argu m n t
about the probable continued need
for leadership in a disunited indus
try.
But fixed prices constitute an eco
nomic shoal which has shattered too
many ships, crumpled too many hopes.
They are something to be approach
ed warily, If at all, no matter how
pleasing the prospect may be made
to seem.

Uncertain as to Cure

A. G. Townley, one-time political
wizard, is touring North Dakota max
ing speeches on the prevailing eco
nonic situation, telling in burning
phrases the obvious injustices tc
which We have become heir.
There is no justification, he says
in people going without shoes where
there are the materials and facilities
for producing so many; no good rea-
son why everyone should not have
clothes, plenty to eat and many OF
the luxuries as well as the necessities
of life.
In this, many who do not ordinarily
think with Townley will agree with
him. The situation Is one against
which many persons have long di-
rected their influence. America is
united on the point.
But, unlike many who point to the
Ills which beset us, Townley has no
suggestions to offer other than social
ization of both industry and agricul-
ture and he isn't quite sure how that
should be done.
In his role Of self appointed eco
nomic physician he is sure as to SYM
ptons, uncertain about the cure.

A man who Is looking for straws

to study those stories about the thou

an effort by deeply moved Amert-

What About the Schools?

\Wul1dNS OOulty CAuAclS 11cSC
How serious the problem of keeping
the common schools Of the state open
would be the best compass for chart
ing the course to be taken. In declar-
ing q special election, Governor Lam
ger states that the sales tax is a
necessary assistance.
II the situation is such that any
material portion of the common
schools of the state are to be closed
for lack of finance, perhaps there is
another solution which the governor
himself has suggested. Rather than
see any major portion closed, all the
normal schools, the agricultural COL
lege and the university should be shut
up tight and the money diverted to
better cause.
If the situation is serious enough
to weigh the value Of the elementary
school against the higher institution,
the answer is obvious-dispense with
the colleges and normals. The value
of these factories to turn out hundreds
Of teachers in a badly oversupplied
state always has been doubtful.
In his prediction addresses at
Williston, the governor reiterated he
would close all of these higher insti-
tutions II necessary to save the COM
mon schools. That Is matter Of
common sense. He should have no
hesitancy whatsoever to take that
action.
The little red school house Is the
keystone Of American education. It
is duty Of state to keep it open to
the coming generations. Where fur
!ther education Is desired, there are
plenty Of other states where a student
may attend a school, with slight in
crease in the cost, If any.
At Fargo, the school superintendent
made the statement that the sales tax
would be Of no assistance to the
schools Of the state, since the revenue
would come too late to meet the
emergency. That being true, and an
; emergency existing, it is time to think
OF direct action. The hundreds OF
thousands of dollars going to these
advanced teaching centers would go a
long way toward keeping country
