There are many sound reasons why

are many types Of repair work that

I might enumerate among these

and flashing; installing storm win
dows and doors, weatherstripping and
proper insulation: cleaning flues and
seeing that chimneys draw.
Another and equally important
reason why modernization plans
should Be put into effect on CONNER

tures now Is that every day that OBJ

DON'T ASSAIL YOUTH

IF you read the magazines, go to the movies
1 or listen to lectures you probably know all
about modern youth.
Modern youth, as all these agencies have
assured us over and over, is irreverent, Eighty,
disobedient. and generally bound for perdition.
Home is just a place to sleep and parents are
just people who provide food and clothing and
pocket money for restless youngsters.
That's the picture anyway. But some per-
sons in the research bureau of the New York
Welfare Council got to wondering about it re-
Gently, and set to work to find out if the pic
ture is a true one.
SO they sent questionnaires TO some 500
Brooklyn school girls. They asked them,
among other things, if they always asked their
parents consent when they planned to go out
anywhere in the evening--and all but twenty
nine of the 1000 replied, very emphatically,
they always did,
There were other questions too; and a
tsbulation of the answers shows that the aver
age Brooklyn school girl goes to bed at 10, or
earlier each night; puts in good deal of
time studying her lessons at home; goes to
church or Sunday school regularly and pre-
fers to spend her leisure time at home rather
than out with friends.
And all this sounds like a pretty good refu-
tation of the common talk about flaming
youth" This cross-section of Brooklyn girl
hood shows us youth that is what we like
to think of as normal-youth that behaves
itself properly and stays at home and works
hard on the tasks given it, and lives very much
as its parents lived when they were young.
1t is very probable that a lot of our talk
about the wildness of youth comes from a
subconscious sense of guilt. During the last
fifteen years We have given youth pretty
cock-eyed world to look forward to, what with
wars, depreSsons, and so on.
We have expected youth to kick over the
traces because deep in our hearts we know
that the state of the adult world has been an
indictment of our own shortcomings and our
talk about youths faiings has reflected on us
more than on our children.
1t is interesting to see how this actual sur
vey of modern youth fails to justify our
misunderstanding.

ANSWER TO PROPAGANDA

IOSEPH EASTMAN, the federal co-ordinator
of transportation, who disclaims any de
sire to assume the role of propaganda for
public ownership and operation" of the rail-
roads, has given the complete answer to ore
fatuous argument against this plan
Speaking before the National Association of
Mutual Savings banks at New York City East
man needed the campaign to get congress to
pass a resolution against government owner
ship and operation to reassure holders of Sc
curities.
And then Eastman whose thinking about
public ownership is perhaps the clearest in
the country, said this:
There are distinct dangers in public own
ership and operation against which safeguards
ought to be provided, but the fact is that
nobody has less to fear than the holders of
railroad securities. Experience in this coun-
try and all over the world clearly shows that
when the government takes over private prop
erty it invariably pays fair price and usually
more than the property is worth. In fact that
is one of the reasons why I am not now urg-
ing acquisition of the railroad properties I'M
der the financial conditions by which our fed
eral government now is faced
What. the co-ordinator wants 70 avoid, in
short, is having the railroads take over the
government when. as and if the government
decides again to take over the railroads.

UNION KNITTERS'

S. F. H, I know you don't know

The strike of 1929 you write about
was not a strike, since it was not

you, along with the other agitators
of that walk-out, come back to

There is a demand today for
union knitters, instead Of a surplus,
as YOU would have us believe, and
it shows how much you know about

WHEN JUSTICE is DUE

A NEW YORKER got drunk the other day.
n got into a fight with friend, and unin-
:entionally killed him with blow Of the fist
The killer was brought into court, where he
pleaded guilty to a charge Of manslaughter
The ordinary sequel would have been
prison sentence But the judge who handled
this case seems to have been a man of con-
siderable discernment So instead Of send
ing the slayer to prison. he ordered him to
abstain from all alcoholic drinks for five
years, to pay the funeral expenses Of his vic
tim, and to pay the widow SIS week for
five years.
II the man fails to live up TO this agree
ment, he goes to prison for a fve-year
stretch.
This looks like an exceedingly sensible
decision. Too often, when society Furnishes
law-breaker, the law-breaker's victim gets left
out in the cold.
Here is a case in which a measure Of JUS
tice Will be done to the innocent persons
who suffered because Of the killing.

DEBTORS LAMENT

DRESIDENT ROOSEVELTS decision that
nations which don't begin soon to make a
serious effort to pay their war debts will be
regarded as defaulters seems to have aroused
something of storm in the English press
One London newspaper reporting the story
put the headline "Highwayman Act" over it,
implying that Uncle Sam is changing from
Uncle Shylock into Dllinger's kid brother.
Now this is probably quite human and
natural man who has long since made up
his mind that he is not going to pay debt
is bound to feel deeply irritated when his
creditor suggests that he ought to have little
something on account. And yet it is hard to
feel a great deal of sympathy for the view
point
If Uncle Sam. who loaned lot of money
in a war that he didn't start is a highway
man for wishing he could get some of it back,
what are the nations which emerged from the
war with their pockets full of separations,
colonies, steamships and mandates?

VALUE OF ONE LIFE

BUSINESS men of many lands are taking
~ out insurance with Lloyds, the famous
London agency, against the death of Presi-
dent Roosevelt.
Lloyds officials revealed not long ago that
the demand for such policies has risen TO
an unprecedented pitch in recent months
and it reflects wide conviction that the
speed and smoothness of world recovery de-
ponds in no small measure on the continued
life and good health of the smiling gentle
man in the White House.
This, of course, does not mean that men
everywhere indorse the Roosevelt policies.
But II does show how the pace of American
recovery Is keyed to the personality of one
man.
He himself is the recovery program. in
large measure. II anything happened TO him,
It inevitably WOULD have serious effect on
the working out Of that program.

PAID AGITATORS AND
LABOR LEADERS

BY Striker.
Let me give you the true facts
about these supposedly paid agita-
tors.
The American Federation of Ho-
siery Workers has a man. B. Foster,
who for the last ten years has ably
and successfully filled the position
Of business agent for the Amalga-
mated Clothing Makers union and
still is filling that office.
Mr. Foster is helping the hosiery
workers in their freedom from j. A,
Goodman, and never has received
one red cent for his services. He
has stopped three strikes from be-
ing called at mills here. Mr.. FoS-
ter is very much against strikes.
I will prove to you that am
right. One day he received a call
to come to the Fulton mill. The
employees were going to walk out,
because they had received cut in
pay and had not been notified I'M
til they were given their checks. Mr..
Foster averted tbs stike.
When Mr.. Goodman laid off the
leader of our union Mr.. Foster
learned that the knitters were going
to walk out. He was at Real Silk
at 5 in the morning to see that
everybody went to work.
The last time was six weeks ago
when we asked to have our union
recognized.
We gave Mr. Goodman from
Monday until Thursday midnight
for an answer. At midnight there
was no word from Mr.. Goodman.
Mr. Foster asked that we give Mr..
Goodman little more time. 1t was
when the vote was taken and it
was 100 per cent for a strike.
B. Foster is a laboring man and
not an agitator. He is also ore of
the most honest and outstanding of
American citizens and we are 60
ing to stand behind him as he has
so courageously stood by us.
1 might add that William Smith,
who also has been called paid
agitator is the national secretary
of the American Federation of Full
Fashioned Hosiery Workers and
draws his salary as secretary of the
above organization and not as an
agitator.
