strike before resorting to terror. But
the terror is being prepared. Many

brought in supplies of tear gas, all

armed guards are being hired.
Picketing Not Organized
While there was a great out
pouring of New Bedford textile
workers on the picket lines this
morning the groups of ten which
the U. T. w. eaders claimed were
organized did not function. The U.
T. w. leaders have not made any
attempt to organize the picketing
The result was that the thousands
who came out on strike today
massed around the gates on the
sidewalks but were not marshalled
by the U. T. w. leaders into or
ganized moving picket lines. In
front of some mills I saw one u.
T. w. picket captain with a white
arm band walking directly in front
of the gate alone-this was true
of the Goodyear mill-while the
hundreds of workers stood across
the street and we're not brought
into moving lines directly in front
of the gates. However, the strike
sentiment was so strong and the
mass mobilization of the workers
themselves so big that every mill
was shut down.

The National Textile Workers
Union distributed a leafet on the
picket line this morning to the
strikers which declared:
What to do to win this strike?
"1-Spread strike to every mill
in city. fl
"2-Place mass picket lines
around every mill
"3-Take the strike into hands
of the rank and file. Elect strike
committees in every mill.
"4-Unite the mill rank and
file comittees into one city-wide
strike committee. This will lay
the basis for national rank and

mands are won.

| PROVIDENCE, R. l., Sept. At
was estimated here today that ten
thousand textile workers are out on
strike in the state of Rhode Island.
Seventy thousand employed and
an additional $4,000 unemployed are
on the picket lines in front of the
mills.
Walter Petraska, Lawrence Spitz
and John Weber, with two other
unidentified workers were arrested
on suspicion. The unidentified work
erS were released Immediately
Weber, who is a Communist organ

Spitz were held incommunicado for
"a hours and were released late this
afternoon.

KINGS MOUNTAIN, N. c., Sept.
Pursuing the mass march tactic,
which is gaining momentum thruout
the South, more than 5000 textile
workers from a nearby mill success
fully surrounded the Margrace Tex
tile Mill here and shut down the
plant completely.
All the workers in the Margrace
mill swarmed out of the plant and
joined the strikers who came in
trucks from the nearby strike area.
ALLENTOWN, Pa, Sept. 4.
About $500 textile workers have al
ready gone out on strike, leaving
about 1000 still working in some
plants where little preparation was
made for the strike.
AS picket lines are beginning to
form, however, the mill workers are
steadily leaving the mills to take
their places in the strike. Most of
the remaining workers are expected
to stop working today or tomorrow
TRENTON, N. j., Sept. 4.-More
than 100 workers in the Princeton
Worsted Mill here went out in a
sympathy strike with the general
textile strike today. They picketed
the mills, carrying placards urging
all workers to give aid to the tex
tile strikers.
UTICA, N. Y, Sept. AIN the
ten textile mills here, employing
about 5000 workers, more than 1900
have already joined the picket lines,
with new workers coming out every
hour as the strike gains momentum.
Company officials are spreading
the report that less than half are on
strike, but the shutdown of the
looms is irrefutable evidence to the
contrary.
HOUSTON, Texas. Sept. 4.-With
the greatest militancy, textile pickets
blocked the mill gates here today
and permitted no one to enter the
mills.
Attempts Of thugs or company of
ficialS to break the lines were met
with the most determined resistance.
No one got through.
QUAKERTOWN, Pa, Sept. A.
Employers report that no mills here
have been shut down, despite the
heavy strike walkout at Allentown
nearby. Whether the mills will con-
tinue to run another day, however,
is in great doubt as the force of
the strike begins to reach the
smaller towns.

Cleaning Up Rock Creek.

One of the arguments advanced by
those who favored modification Of
plans for the District sewage disposal
plant, to be built with P. w. A. loan,
was that benefits from removing one
source of pollution from the Potomac
would be offset by failure to remove
pollution from Rock Creek. If it was
q question which of the streams
should be purified, there was senti-
ment in favor of cleaning up Rock
Greek first. The existing condition Of
this stream, flowing through one Of
the most beautiful parks in the world,
is nothing less than disgraceful.
The P. w. A. grant of $4,000 to the
National Park Service, announced
yesterday, will defray the expenses Of
q thorough investigation Of the prob
lem of removing pollution from Rock
Greek and may be regarded as the first
step in a major undertaking Of mani
fest desirability.
The chief source of pollution of
Rock Creek in Maryland is from the
town of Kensington. Garrett Park,
not far from Kensington, recently in
stalled a sewage treatment plant
which has improved conditions to
some extent. All of the sewage from
Chevy Chase, D. c., and most Of the
sewage from Chevy Chase, Nd, now

terceptor, which generally follows the
course Of the creek and has its out
let at Blue Plains. Another Maryland
sewer empties into the Potomac above
the District line. But one Of the chief
sources OF pollution Of the creek In
the District is the drainage through
storm sewers, which empties directly
into the creek during heavy rains.
The expense of removing this source
of pollution, involving new and larger
mains, has been regarded in the past
as prohibitory, in view Of other nee
essary undertakings awaiting ade-
quate financing.
Grant of the money to the National
Park Service for engineering surveys
should assure the coordination Of
effort between the District and Mary
land which is necessary in this prof.
ect, and rapid residential development
of suburban Montgomery County, to-
gether with extensions of the Rock
Creek Park system into Maryland, are
Fastening the time when a plan must
be adopted and pushed to completion.

WASHINGTON OBSERVATIONS
BY FREDERIC WILLIAM VILE.

DR.. Glenn Frank. president Of the
University Of Wisconsin, who inau-
gurated Washington's Town Hall
this week, continues to be looked
upon as a 1896 Republican white
hope, in case the elephant harks to
advice to turn to the liberal left.
The chance that the young Western
educator may develop into presidential
timber lent piquant interest to the
side-swipes he seemed to be taking
in his Town Hall address at certain
New Deal policies. A native of Mis-
souri, and just turned A. DR.. Frank
has never aspired to public Office.
Despite his nine years at Madison
he has revealed little Identification
with the La Toilette brand of progress
sivism nor taken active interest in
party politics generally. AS an avowed
'internationalist, one of DR.. Frank S
claims to fame is that he was a men,
Der Of a group headed by William
Howard Taft that drafted a covenant
for the League of Nations.
Demands for Republican reorgani-
zation and for younger leaders are
causing a regular treasure hunt for
talent. Some of the names (among
others) honorably mentioned include
Bronson Cutting, Col. Theodore Roose-
velt, Hamilton Fish, jr.; Patrick J.
Hurley, Fiorello H. La Guardia, F.

man of New Jersey. The Seventy
fourth Congress may develop brand
new timber. Had Bob La Toilette
stayed regular" the consensus is
that he would have had few rivals
for liberal G. o. P. leadership and
might easily have nodded party poll
cies. with the old guard In the dis
card.
More is likely to be heard of George
Olmsted of Des Moines, head of the
national Young Republican movement,
who is expected to call conference
of his associates later this month or
early IN January for the purpose of
organizing concerted attack on the

now Germany is isolated, partly as a
result OF Hitler's diplomacy or the lack
OF it. and partly because of French
Vaccinations. Germany has only one
friend, Poland. The announcement Of
Franco-Russian entente may prove
to be the surest way to bring her new
friends. Already Italy and Great Brit
ain have expressed their alarm over
the report of the entente. They find it
difficult to believe. One would think

Museum of American History.

A plan for q museum Of American
history. to supplement the equipment
Of the Smithsonian Institution and to
house relics and souvenirs of the Ma
tion's glorious and colorful past, has
been indorsed by the Washington
chapter Of the Society Of Colonial
Wars and doubtless also will be ap-
proved by other patriotic bodies. The
natural attraction of the project is
obvious, and the need for some such
establishment likewise Is unquestioned.
For many years the Smithsonian
has been obliged to reject gifts freely
offered by citizens. The space avail
able for the display Of material was
exhausted long ago, and Q condition
Of overcrowding has been the distin-
gushing characteristic Of the institu-
tion for several decades. Thus, from a
purely practical point of view, the
construction Of a new building spe-
cifically assigned to American history
should be welcomed by the regents
and executive staff. 1t would make
possible the rearrangement Of all the
material already owned by the Smith
sonian and bring into one single focal
center some of the most interesting
and valuable Of the institutions treas
ures. Also it would afford accommoda-
ton for material which the regents
gladly would accept for exhibition.
But the ideal represented by the
history museum proposal is to be
commended for its own sake. The
Nation should have such a deposit
tory for its artifacts, and the Ma
tion's Capital is the proper place for
1t to be located. Great Britain has
the British Museum to serve a SIM
liar purpose, and no visitor to its GAL
leries can fail to recognize the utility
which it serves.
Nearly thirty years have passed since
Congress has granted the Smithsonian
funds for construction purposes. II
now it authorizes money for a history
museum-and for additions to the
National Museum and for a fine arts
building as well-there surely will be
general public approval of its action.
Evening star., 1934-12-05

The uses of criticism are various
In the daily life the personal type
of criticism, received by most persons,
may be put to many good uses.
II one Is Of a moralistic nature 1t
may be received as a guard against
the pride which goeth before a fall.
1t may be accepted with one or
more grains of the proverbial salt.
It may pose as material for study
Of the human ego, both as demon
strated in the critic and he who re-
ceives criticism.
1t may be a help or a hindrance,
according to the way in which it is
used after reception.
Only q few persons, by reason Of
wealth or power, will be free from
fault finding, and it is q question
whether they may not be the losers
thereby.
What they gain by freedom from
the stings of petty criticism they
perhaps lose by the failure to receive
any help from this source.
Napoleon, for instance, could not
see the futility of his attempted raid
on Russia half as well as hundreds
who surrounded him.
The man who would have been bold
enough in that empire to have told
the chief that the curve OF his Stom-
ach, while serving admirably perhaps
in a snuff box portrait, really presaged
his fall no doubt would have suffered
the fate meted out to those held too
frank in concealing world.
The main thing to watch out for
in regard to criticism is to separate
words deserving consideration from
the petty sort.
1t will be discovered that there are,
in the main, two distinct types Of hu-
man being in this regard. Members
Of the first class offer criticism in the
daily life because they are sincerely
desirous of helping, although often
enough their approach is faltering
ana fumbling, thereby placing them In
difficult position.
Members of the second class merely
criticise to find fault. They are
shooting off their mouth" as the
vernacular has it. just talking to
hear themselves talk
Often they find a malicious pleas
ure in pointing out what to them seem
faults, but which really rank as such
only in their own imaginations.
They like to create an issue and
carry the battle where the victim
can see no ground for complaint.
Thus, If the latter is too kind to be
wary, he often finds himself vigorously
defending himself from nothing.
Don't let anybody make you untrue
to yourself, through acceptance Of an
issue which is no issue, but merely a
complaint, based on nothing much.
Many of the criticisms of daily life
come about because the complainer Is
neither willing nor able to understand
what another is trying TO do.
He may be sincere enough in his
belief that because he does not like a
thing nobody else can. but he would
be amazed to realize the numbers Of
those who hold the other way.
II the victim of the attack Is quite
sure that the bulk of opinion is on
his side and is favorable to his work,
he should not become excited because
some one has not been able to see
what he is trying to do.
So much Is to be expected in q
striving world

THIS AND THAT
BY CHARLES E. TRACEWELL.

Many persons cannot stand the
original. or the different, perhaps be-
cause they unconsciously regard 1t as
reflection upon themselves, Just as
those who drink consistently dislike
those who do not.
Especially is criticism likely to
come to the original man from men
in the same line who regard them
selves as pretty smooth"
They are victims of system, and
none Is more merciless. Anything diff
ferent from what they would do is a
standing invitation to them to swing
into battle for God and country-and
themselves.
While he who Is criticised should
try to winnow the wheat from the
chaff, he should not DO SO to the ex-
tent of permitting the antagonist to
create an issue where actually there is
none.
He should never permit the other to
get him In an argument about the
matter, for to do so makes it real,
since words are things and cannot be
held lightly, even when they are false.
So never, under any circumstances,
permit him to make you untrue to
yourself.
And never let what he says hurt
you too much.
This will be asking seeming i'm
possibility Of many sensitive human
being. Yet good callousness can be
achieved, even by the most sensitive.
A certain rather well known Wash
ingtonian, whenever he receives a
badly phrased piece of criticism, such
as would not be penned by gentleman
or gentlewoman. consigns it to the
waste basket with the simultaneous
use of one of two epithets, according
to sex.
He wisely has learned how best to
protect his inner self against raids.
~ +
There is something finely exciting
about this form of intellectual battle.
Battles are won and lost here as
elsewhere but not word Is said, no
flag waved, nor shot fired.
II the foeman will give the devil
his due, he will realize, II not soon
then later, that the fellow will try to
search out the merit of his criticism,
and II he finds it acceptable Will
adopt it. Depend upon him.
Naturally he will not do anything
which will be an admittance that
what he has done should never have
been done in the first place. He is a
human being not an angel, and func-
tions as such.
Criticism often does not have the
point to it which the proponent
thinks it has. 1t is the result, all
too often, Of hasty thinking, or the
easy acceptance Of one or two utter
ances as the pronouncements OF many.
Often criticism is worked up in
little coteries speaking easily in cor
ners about another. who, II he were
present, could quickly show the fall
lacy Of the words.
Yet they are trotted out later as
the solemn edicts of matured judg-
ment, and the victim must hasten TO
bow the knee to superior judgment.
Let him bow no knee, let him not
admit too hastily the voice Of the
gods. They are but gods Of the
everyday and their crowns are tinsel.
When the hollow speciousness Of
their criticisms are seen for what
they are worth, small, still voice
will answer out of the whirlwind:
"Aw, bunk"
