XXTHEN the federal conference on
w economic security met in Wash
ington, nearly all the members of the
advisory committees were present.
The President told the delegates that
he would present to the coming con-
gress bills to provide for setting up i'm
mediately an unemployment insurance
program. AS to health insurance and
old age pensions, he said he was not
certain the time had arrived for fed
eral legislation to put these into effect,
and he uttered warning against
organizations promoting fantastic
schemes" and arousing hopes (which
cannot possibly be fulfilled"
Though Mr.. Roosevelt conceded to
the separate states the right to decide
what type of unemployment insurance
they would adopt, he declared that he
would reserve to the federal govern
ment the right to hold and invest and
control all moneys which might be
collected.
This was necessary, the President
added, because of the magnitude of the
funds, and 80 that the use of these
funds as a means of sterilization may
be maintained in central management
and employed on a national basis" 1t
is expected that from $4,000,000,000 to
$5,000000,000 would be raised in the
course of several years.
Mr.. Roosevelt insisted that unem-
ployment insurance must be kept en-
tirely apart from the dole, and that
it should be managed strictly on an
actuarially sound basis. He indicated
that he favored legislation along the
lines of the Wager-Lewis bill intro
duced in the last congress, under which
a per cent federal tax would be put
upon all commercial pay rolls, certain
portions of the proceeds being paid
back to such states as had adopted
legislation for the working Of an I'M
employment insurance program.
Before the conference members went
to the White House to hear the Presi-
dent, they INDUCED ina discussion
that brought out all sorts Of views on
what should be done. Relief Admins
traitor Harry Hopkins and Mayor La
Guardia of New York urged immediate
establishment Of federal program
to include benefits for the 100000
families now on relief. Hopkins said
any program not encompassing these

Guardia, in the same vein, said cities

much longer. This was not in accord
with the view expressed little later
by the President, and was an example
of the confusion Of ideas in the con-
ference.

was no chance for survival save by

step out into the void too soon would

Japan's Concern
In the Philippines
10 me Fditor al m. ssay.

TO the Editor Of The Star:
AT q time when Philippine leaders
are stressing needs Of sclidifying
American trade ties with the United
States IS the islands prepare for in
dependence, 10 be granted 10 years
hence. the Commerce Department
announces that the first rubber fac
tory has Just been established in the
Philippine Islands by japanese inter
ests. The factory proposes the manu-
facture Of 2,00o pairs Of tennis shoes
daily.
Thus the cat Is let out Of the bag.
For years Filipino politicians have
minimized the menace Of Japanese
economic penetration on the pre-
posterous allegation that the Japa-
nese are not interested in the tropics
because they are q cold weather
people. In the long, wordy annals OF
Philippine American relations this
assertion is the most puerile.
The Japanese are tremendously In
terested IN the tropics. The British.
the French, and the Dutch are cold
weather peoples. but they control
most Of the tropical areas OF the
world. No one has yet been hyper
imaginative enough to give climate
as a reason why America should leave
the Philippines, and yet the American
people are q cold weather people, too.
FilipinoS see in the naturalization
provision Of the McDufae- -Tydings in
dependence law a safety device that
would permanently guarantee free
dom Of the Philippines, but now they
realize that such treaty would not
be worth drafting And recalling the
rapid changes of front indulged in by
Japan in her continental diplomacy.
Americans feel that she cannot be
depended upon to keep her phghted
word.
As the history Of Korea was re-
peated in the case of Manchuria, and
is now being repeated in the case of
Mongolia. there is reason to fear that
it will also be repeated in the case Of
an independent Philippines.
1t is the audacity of ignorance, and
not the dictate of circumspective pa
triotism to ignore the proven fact Of
Japanese economic penetration in
Asia and the perils of japanese mill
tarism and Imperialism.
The mere presence and interest Of
the United States in the Philippine
Islands will serve as warning to
the world that those Pearls Of the
Orient will be for Filipinos alone
and not for foreigners to use and
exploit. Her premature withdrawal
therefrom, however, will throw the
islands upon the mercy Of Asiatic
militarism, exposing the country to
the overwhelming, disintegrating
forces of mass immigration from
China and economic penetration from
Japan. TEDDY DE NOLASCO.

Stolen Bikes.

About the meanest trick that any
body can play on a child is that of
stealing his bicycle, and yet there
are many such cases. Real epidemics
OF bike thefts occur from time to
time. Recently there have been two
waves Of this kind of petty crime in
washington. Some months ago the
racket assumed prodigious propor-
tons in Arlington County and dozens
Of wheels were reported missing
Skilled police investigation disclosed
that one gang was responsible for all
the mischief. The culprits were two
half-grown boys whose parents should
have governed them more wisely. The
snatched property was taken apart,
interchanged and reaSsembled in a
garage back OF n private home, and
the metamorphosed vehicles were
marketed as ''reconditioned" machines.
When caught, the boys lied in the
usual pathological manner, but the
insult which they thus added to in
jury avsiled them little in the end.
Their punishment. however, was some
what less severe than 1t should have
been. The young rascals were treated
as first offenders" when justice
would have been better served by
rating them as "repeaters"
Probably the best solution for the
problem would be that Of more ef-
fective guardianship. Boys and girls
should be taught to protect their prop
erty. They should be educated against
leaving their bikes where they can
be stolen. Riding to school, for ex-
ample, should be discouraged, unless
ways and means are provided for the
safety of wheels while the children
are in class. A paddock and a chain
represent a small investment, but q
bicycle locked to Q fence ninety-nine
times out Of q hundred would remain

N. r. AS Only Friends
Now Are the Chiselers

To the Editor of The Star:
At the time N. r. A. loomed up
over the horizon more than a year
ago it was the agreed thought be-
tween both pessimistS and optimists
that things sure were in sad state.
that something was radically wrong
somewhere and must, If we had any
desire to regain our lost prosperity,
be cured somehow.
Our country's greatest minds, and
many OF lesser renown, long had their
theories as to what the trouble was
and stated them freely wherever pos
sible. It took several years Of de-
preston and hardship for these think
ers to succumb to the simple yet i'm
portant thought that the depression
had no serious thought or desire of
silently departing some night while
they were under the blanket of
slumber or in the throes Of that lust
great" feeling usually caused by i'm
bibing the necessary amount Of pro-
hibition era liquor.
The aforementioned thought Of
these thinkers was causing much
misery in their ranks when the change
in administration fortunately and
finally came. They got their legal
liquor back, failed to drink near as
much, lost all desire for sleep, pooled
their plans and theories and gave
birth to N. r. A.
The result was very pleasant
fine bouncing baby. A child endowed
with an abundance of fine points; a
child that had loads of personality
and public appeal. Like prairie FIRE,
the newly born spread codes Of fair
competition to all parts Of the country
that had been responsible for its
birth.
But as the child grew and was just
about reaching the adolescent stage
it began to take on happy y-go-lucky,
ay-the-best- -chiseler- attitude.
The child's parents and guardians had
failed to teach him the necessity of
enforcement, and as things went on
and now stand the only friends the
poor kid has are the chiselers, whom
he was supposed TO destroy.
If he has any desire to gain the
friendship and support of those who
are willing and have complied with
his wishes he must be strict on the
fellows who disobey him for their
own advantage. If he doesn't I am
afraid the little fellow is going to die
