Errors in Interview
To the Editor Of TAe Star:

~ ING Euitor Oh Inc St1f.
My attention has been called to an
article by Mr.. Constantine Brown
which appeared in The Star Of April
n, purporting to give an interview
with me on the subject Of the future
world war.
Although I do not doubt that the
writer was anxious to express my
views correctly, probably because of
my insufficient knowledge Of the Eng
lish language. some Of my statements.
as they appear in print. have been
misinterpreted. believe, as Mr.
Brown correctly stated. that the pres
ent situation In the Far East forms q
potential danger Of war. I did not
say. however. that Russia was only
waiting for an opportunity to attack
Japan. What / did say was that II
the Russian regime reverted again to
the idea Of world revolution, they
might find the Far East a convenient
starting point for spread Of this
doctrine.
As to the Polish German nom
aggression pact, while not placing any
exaggerated hopes on it, believe.
that for the time being at least it
forms . safeguard against an out
break Of war in Europe. Whether 1t
will be equally effective If Germany
rearms depends entirely on whether
the leaders Of Germany at that time
will be motivated by the same good
faith which motivates them today.
In any case. whatever said in the
Sv.k -
views.
Hoping in the interest Of fairness
you will publish this explanation.

Mencken's Advice to
the ssBrain Trusters''

10 the Bdttor OF Ihe Star:
Doubtless the brain trusters" and
new dealers would be wise to note the
warning Of H. L. Mencken to return
to the campus" Majorities often work
against their own interests, and mis-
taken or vicious minorities can wreck
any plan.
Mencken's pessimism on the unbear-
able cost Of the new deal Is baseless,
although his views are widely held.
Some taxpayers are going broke, but
others are not. TugWell and others
have pointed out repeatedly that resto-
ration Of production and consumption
to the rate of 1929 will raise the ma
tional income for each year by more
than the whole national debt (public)
to say nothing Of the smaller cost
Of recovery.
II any man could increase his yearly
income $1,000 by borrowing $225 he
would be crazy not to do It. These
figures are approximately the expected
amounts for the average worker, under
recovery plans, and It Is poor mathe-
matics to say that the Nation will be
ruined by the new deal In that re-
spect.
There are two classes Of people who
squawk at the terrible" taxation in
volved: Those who. with reason or
without. believe they must pay with
out sharing In the benefits, and thoss
who are determined to get more than
their share of benefits while paying
little toward the cost Justice and
publicity can largely eliminate the
former group Of kickers. but only .
change Of character can remove the
latter.
Mencken's warning Ii timely, but he
threw his weight on the side OF the
wreckers. q W. g. DUNCAN

u. S. Needs Mothering
AS Well AS Fathering

To the Editor OF The Star
Recently President Roosevelt de-
livered an address at the Commerce
Building In which he made Q signif.
cant statement which should not pass
without grateful commendation by
women.
He was defending national planning;
and in the course of his remarks, as
reported by the press, pointed out that
the Federal Government must act a.
a father and mother" to the States.
The expression Is unique in presi-
dental utterances and In masculine
circles. What I admire Is his sense
Of balance. The country needs
mothering as well as fathering. There
has been too much Of one element
and too little Of the other. Creative
ideas which men might never have
are locked UP potentially in the minds
Of women. which, II released and
blended with masculine views, would
give birth to q higher expression OF
intelligence than would be possible
with either element alone. This fur
nishes o scientific clue to the best
method Of achieving national balance.
In the words of Susan B. Anthony.
woman grown wise in statecraft
through . lifetime Of struggle and OBJ
servation, until men and women
stand upon plane of perfect
equality Of rights and privileges, there
can be no such thing as q fair solu-
ton or adjustment Of the issues Of
the day, either great or small; In
other words, that these cannot be
satisfactorily and permanently settled
through the judgment and decision Of
only one-hah Of the people"

day, and has been 30 proclaimed by
the President Of the United States.
"All onicial and voluntary agencies
and organizations and all individuals
interested in child welfare" have been
urged by Mr.. Roosevelt ''to unite
in the Observance of such exer-
cises as viii result in deeper reali-
.ation by the people of the necessity
for the protection and promotion of
the health Of the Nations children
and in greater. unified effort to Inn
prove the existing child-welfare pro-
gram wherever 1t Is found made
quate."
Obviously, such an appeal comes
with special poignancy from q Chief
Executive who has made particular
study Of the needs of boys and girls
who still are suffering the effects Of
one Of the plaques which most cruelty
afflicts mankind and who has con-
tributed generously toward its allie
Walton. The President Is NO theorist !:
he knows from his own experience
the compelling necessity to guard the
physical well-being Of the youth Of
the land. He Is an ideal leader In
such . cause and millions must ap-
plaud his devotion.
But child health is a problem for
every home-not something to be left
to any ofhcial administrative machine.
Fathers and mothers are the real
defenders Of the younger generation,
and their duty is one which they will
not wish to shirk. Greater knowledge,
1t seems clear. Is wanted: q better
technique Of guardianship is required,
II the desired goal ID to be won
adults must be educated as well rs
the children themselves. And that,
Of course, is where the Organized
agencies come in. 1t Is their privi-
lege and function to guide the Ma
tion's course in that regard. Through
the schools, the churches, the press.
the movies and the radio. through all
the centers Of community life and all
the ordinary channels of communica- =
ton. the crusade against the ignor-
ance which Is the principal enemy
Of the race should 90 on. Human
ity already Is wise enough to be cog
infant Of the elementary truth that
health and happiness are synonyms.
Let it make the most Of its under
standing Of that fact.

Report of Secretary Perkins Group on
immigration Should Be Pigeonholed

be thrown out Of employment and
placed on our charity lists. The only
method by which this could be
averted would be to admit only those
refugees who have means of self
support. but this method would diff
ferentiate between the well-to-do and
the poor refugees and therefore vio-
late the humanitarian spirit with
which this committee processes to be
filled.
1t seems to me that II We should
adopt the recommends tions of this
committee our immigration laws would
be virtually nullified. Our land would
again become the dumping ground for
those whom other nations do not
want. II other nations learn that we
are willing to admit all those whom
they regard as undesirable. those ma :
tions will be less reluctant to drive
such persons from their boundaries.
Knowing that those persons could find
an asylum here. those nations would
regard persecution as less of a hard
ship.
The committee refers to a so-called
American tradition Of maintaining an
asylum here for the oppressed of the
world. The committee overlooks the
fact that In the early days. when We
had iarge tracts Of territory unin-
habtted. We welcomed all comers. not
50 much because Of any humanitarian
spirit. though much was said about
such Q spirit, but mainly because We
needed immigrants to settle those
tracts. Now. however, our country
Is well occupied and We have no
national need for additional immi-
grants. We should look after our own
citizens first. There are millions of
underprivileged people already here
whose lot In life We should elevate
before admitting others to tax our
energies.
The report Of Secretary Perkins
committee deserves to be pigeon
holed indefinitely. G. w. BUTT.
