hurled against the same enemy
Capitalism.
The Scandinavian workers marched
the Jewish trade unionists, garment
workers and the brave fuuriers, sing
ing choruses and athletic groups.
Strong contingents Of Negro workers,
men, women and children, marched
all the way from Harlem, under the
great red flags of world freedom
Their militant bearing and fine
slogans won applause along the way
The Cuban Club, with a picture
of the martyred leader, the noble
young Julio Mella, were a prominent
group, as were other South American
leagues of Peruvians, Paraguayans,
Chileans and other sections.
Filipino seamen and food workers
marched, Porto Ricans, and Hindus.
AS at all New York demonstrations
the whole world of humanity was
represented in microcosm. But the
cosmopolitan army, marching in the
terrific heat, was doubly effective
yesterday, for it was living example
that the workers of different nations
do not want war, that they are
brothers. 1t is the capitalist class
that wants and makes war.
A well-dressed lady standing on
the Broadway sidewalk sneered when
she saw the slogan, "All War Funds
to the Unemployed" She looked like
a Chopper caricature, fat-buttccked,
high-chested, and indignant as a wet
cat. "These people" she shifted,
really do not want to work. They
want charity handouts" Yes, the
lady said it, because there are thou
sands Of these bourgeois animals in
the life, and they still have a great
influence in the world. IF these
folks don't like America, why don't
they go back where they came
from?"

The heat lay in yellow sickly
haze over Union Square. Against
the jaundiced sky iutted the tower
CT the Gas Building, and the big
sign of S. Klein, notorious depart
nent store, where fllthiest sweatshop
goods are sold, and little salesgirls
are squeezed dry of life and joy. And
in the square stood the statue of

CARTELS FORECAST
IN j. S. INDUSTRY
Development of European
Idea Is Expected in New
Trade Deal.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, May 1.-THE New
Deal for industry broadly outlined by
President Roosevelt, promises an early
propagation in this country OF cartels
modelled on the European plan, accord
ing to opinion in some industrial quar-
ters.
Briefly defined, a cartel is an agree
ment in writing among manufacturers
or producers for the regulation OF pro-
duction and prices.
Cartels have operated IN our export
trade under the protective provisions
of the Webb -Pomerene act, which per-
Ynits combinations of American COM
panies in their quest for foreign bus1-
ness.
In domestic operations, however, in
dustry and business have had to GO
along with strict regard to Sherman
antitrust and other Federal laws with
their multiplicity of thoushalt nots as
to price agreements, production control
pooling of interests and so forth.
Echoing the sentiment OF the Pres1-
dent. many in finance and industry as
sert that most of the present ills and
infirmities of business can be corrected
by a iudicious modification of existing
laws to permit companies to make rea-
sonable agreements respecting prices
and production so that ruinous compe-
tition may be eliminated.
If the Government follows the ex-
pected path it will doubtless lead to
iegisla ton permitting cooperative
agreements and associations within
something of the same latitude allowed
the general run of cartels in Europe.
The principal justification of the car
eel. 1t is contended. is its effectiveness
in preventing reckless price cuts to the
detriment of the entire industry af-

European Boys Smarter?
(New York World Telegraph

Statements such as that made regarding Amer1- can schooboys' by Dr. A. Lawrence Lowell, former Harvard President, in Philadelphia recently, are so rare as to be shocking to the usual American opn- ion regarding young ones He said:
 School boys of this country are, as
 rule, less advanced than those of Europe.
 They begin later and progress more slowly.
 President Lowell blamed the physicians for ad- vising parents not to send their children to school too young and not to press them too hard when they get there.
 Americans, conscious of the tremendous material advancement achieved here through pioneering and constructive talents and genius and proud of their fine and elaborate school establishments assume that our education is lively and effective The difference apparently lies in the fact that in Europe education is directed toward the leiS- urely living of life and less toward great surging of material expansion.
 Therefore, it seems that while the American schoolboy may get less pure education than his European fellow, he acquires, in out of the schoolroom practical mental liveliness that served the American purposes of industrial conquest to date
 We are now ready for an era of deeper educa- tion We are embarking new social adventures just as surely as our forefathers set out on un- trodden and uncharted paths in the earlier days.
 In the great rebuilding task ahead of America the better the training oi the minds and intellects the faster the progress and the quicker the adjust ment of the population to change

An Apostle of Advertising.
(Boston News Bureau.)

(Boston News Bureau)
 Cyrus H. K. Curtis left more than fortune and string of magazine and newspaper properties as his monuments. Also he bequeathed proved in advertising. That proved both for himself as well as for others to whom he supplied the medium and the process.
 But it must be advertising at once intelligent, honest, skillful artistic and serviceable to both sides, and also courageous and liberal though not rash in its spending To his mind advertising was in many ways mutual affair, with it's service ideal applying quite much to reader and consumer at one end to advertiser and publisher at the other.
 More than that, he demonstrated his faith in that principle by applying it to his own wares as advertiser of advertising. He became a great buyer well as seller of space. Witness the oc- casional very liberal advertising of his magazines in the daily press whenever they carried some notable feature or when he considered general con- dons called for special effort by advertisers every where.
 This notably exemplified by the campaigns he attempted during the depression to stimulate manufacturers to enlist advertising as a bulwark against declining patronage and ot prepare-as he had himself often previously demonstrated-for bet ter times to follow eventually He combatted by precept and example the folly of relaxing all sales and promotion effort in time of temporary lull. Doing he regarded as a false or even fatal leconomy. ls.---4& r What advertising has been able to achieve in the nearly four decades since Curtis acquired the (weekly which Benjamin Franklin started nearly two centuries ago has been shown in the chronicle lof national advtrsers in that period In its way 1t lrivaled what Mccormick once wrought in the agri- lcultural implement field what Ford did with the mass production principle
 An Eastern philosopher once observed that what he considered the most marvellous thing about oc- Icidental newspapers not much their pro- ficiency in newstelling their gift for linking buyer and seller together day by day. Curtis was the great apostle of that magic.

STRENGTHENS COMMISSIONERS
 HAND.

Without regard to the legal soundness Of Judge Clegg's ruling upholdng the authority Of Commis- soner Frank T. Bell of the United States Bureau of Fisheries to close individual fish trap sites the effect of that decision, just handed down in the Harris case will undoubtedly be to strengthen the hand of the Commissioner. He has won the first round in the initial fight of his administration
 Had the court upheld the contention of the plaintiff company in its attack the closure order, the result would have been to throw the entire existing system of administration and regulation in the salmon fishery into chaotic confusion. The Commissioner would have found his responsibilities greatly augmented, and he would have been laced with similar suits from all sides. With the court upholding his power to enforce regulatory measures taken by the Department of his authority remains supreme, at least until higher tribunal reyerses or sets aside the decision of Judge Cegg.

and the apprehension of criminals, and it is
 believed that the Federal laws may be better
 enforced if the investigatory personnel is
 consolidated in single organization.
 The Presidents executive order also abolished the Bureau of Industrial Alcohol, which came into existence through the Federal Prohibition law, and transferred it's functions to the Bureau of Internal Revenue.
 Senator Robinsons explanation of the reasons for the discontinuance of the Prohibition Bureau was simple and sound. They are not new. They have been voiced for years by many who saw in it waste of public money and misdirection of gov ernmental energy. There never was from the first day of National Prohibition down to any jus tifiable for creating special agency for enforcing the Federal Prohibition law It was done because the AntiSaloon League lobby and its allies forced it down the throat of Congress. It probably would remain in existence until the people of the United States by their votes wipe out Prohibition had it not been that President Roosevelt had the courage and good sense to destroy it with stroke of his pen.

THE TRUE TASK.

If the Titans of American business and finance were the ruling deties of the nation in 1929, they partook amply of the ancient Greek conception of gods that had the frates of human nature In seemingly endless procession, many of them have been toppled from their austere heights Some have fallen into the abyss of bankruptcy, others into the canyons of prisons and still others into the more kindly vale of oblivion. Others, of course, have chung to their precarious footholds on Olympus a bit dizzy as their comrades fall and demonstrate the painful nature of the descent
 Unfortunately, the known errors of man in high places have led to a sort of blanket indictment of all in position of power, in the minds Of some minimizing persons. This is grossly unfair to those economic leaders of unquesonable honesty and competence, and likewise to those whose names have been associated in innocent relations with wrongdoers
 measure of indiscriminate condemnation is inevitable however and it will pass after awhile We are going through process in America Of revising our system of values We are learning to see wealth in a light-in terms of enduring assets instead of paper gains. We are, perhaps learning a system of ethics in which social responsibility is paramount over predatory enter prise We are learning, slowly, new theory Of production, in which impressive totals mean less than equitable distribution
 Engaged in such an undertaking confused by its enormity and discouraged by it's slowness at times, we are likely to get off false scents. We are apt to accuse, unjustly whose only guilt lay in sharing a game that played with unwise rules, whose only sin to have succeeded in an economic system now under indictment
 Despite their dynamic penchant for overriding everything they undertake. despite their reckless eagerness for action of some sort the American people have unfailing sense of humor and com mon sense. This must be reliance in period ob n1art nf fa1S have toppled from their thrones though momentary hardship accentuates our contempt for those who did not keep the faith, this vein of common sense will enable us to keep eyes fixed not on the persecution of individuals but rather in the great task of reconstruction.
