Economic nliteracy
Cause of Social Failure
To the Editor of The Star:

Az JLc EulLOE VI 1Hc OLdTs
I have read with particular inter-
est the letter of Raymond Edens in
The Star of August "a on the i'm
perative need for education in social
and economic science in our public
schools. The ideas so clearly and
forcefully expressed are so fully in
accord with my own that I am
cheered by the thought that perhaps
many other persons also are think
ing along these lines. Economic illit-
eracy and general disregard of in
dividual responsibility in all matters
of government are the chief under
lying causes of the present general
tendency toward failure and break
down of democratic government and
society. Indeed, it is these same
causes that for ages have kept the
great majority of the people in a
state of economic and political bond
age. 1t may be contended that
natural" selfshness is at the bot
tom of all our social ills, but the hap
hazard economic organization we
have in present-day society directly
places a premium on selfish practices.
A minority always has ruled the
majority of the people and doubtless
always will. The problem of possible
solution, therefore, is to develop a
sufficiently large minority of socially
minded, intelligent, active people to
gain the permanent support of a
working majority. This to the end
that government and at least the
larger business activities Of the coun-

Defense of the Movies.

The movies, under attack from a
dozen different angles, are entitled to
whatever defense their representatives
can make for them. But it need not
be supposed that apologies will be
accepted without critical examination.
On the contrary, every attempt to
mollify outraged public opinion is
bound to be scanned with q skepti-
cism prompted by bitter experience.
Fair-minded people, however, are
happy to have the views of Cecil B.
De Mile, producer whose personal
record Is clean and honorable and
whose motives are sincere and rea-
sonably unselfish. If he can explain
away" the sins of Hollywood, not even
the most ardent advocate of a rigid
censorship will object. The difficulty
is that sonorous generalizations will
not serve the need.
For example, when Mr.. De Mile
says, The public has been misin-
formed about Hollywood for years." :"
the natural reaction is one of resent
ment. Thousands, if not millions, of
readers of the American press are
familiar with the fact that the movie
magnates have competent publicity
agents in their employ and that much
of the news" about actors and
actresses comes from their facile type

is current very easily could be traced

whole period. seen by none but those
who attended him.
1t would be interesting to know
what experiences Kaspar Hauser had
as a soldier to drive him to this
extreme resort Of evasion Of further
military duty. Perhaps he hoped to
get clear away from the land, into
q safe refuge elsewhere. 1t took some
courage to face immurement for a
protracted period. Maybe he trusted
to political overturn with attendant
confusion to enable him to emerge
from hiding and resume his life.
The narrative of those fifteen years
Of .seclusion would be dull reading
as a record of occurrences, for there
was presumably nothing but monot-
ony, with no variation from day to
day. The mans mind may have
been too dull to reflect the psychology
ical reactions of the experience. The
hermit who deliberately chooses to
isolate himself for the sake of placid
contemplation Of the puzzle of human
existence lives a full life compared
with such a prisoner. Still the
thought remains that the tale Of his
long durance would, in the hands of
gifted writer, make classic.

try may be conducted in the interests
of all rather than in the interests of
a few.
Education of the rising generation
and, as far as may be, of the older
one is the key to the solution of the
problem. DR.. Rexford G. Tugwell
uttered a great truth in his book,
THE Industrial Discipline" when he
declared that "the democratizing of
social science is no less necessary
than the democratizing of industry"
The inculcation of economic and civic
principles should be begun with chill
dren Of upper grade school age and
the work continued and expanded in
high school, on the strength Of its
pre-eminent importance in the life
of the individual and to society
These subjects, heretofore considered
as suitable for study only by some
what older minds, may be so simply
presented that not only high school
and college students, but younger
children and also adults who are not
acquainted with the new social eco
nomics can easily comprehend the
essentials. AS has been stated in ef-
feet by Mr.. Edens, upon the accom-
plishment of this purpose the future
of democratic society and perhaps of
our very civilization depends.

A Plea for Consideration for
Dumb Creatures i'm Summer Heat

beginning Of settled hot weather, in
June or early July. in time to allow
coats to have grown back sufficiently
to afford protection for the first chilly
nights. Keep them in the shade for
the first week or two to prevent fly
stings and sunburn to the suddenly
exposed skin.
Water should be provided in some
way for all the city's animal inhab-
itants, for which, so far, there are
few drinking places provided. For
tunately, the Washington Humane So
ciety has a horse fountain fund, and
these fountains are scattered through
out the city in the most needy places.
However, selfish autoists in the con-
gested downtown section, by blocking
these fountains with their parked
cars, have selishly been depriving of
water the very ones for whom they
were erected-thirsty, toiling horses,
especially those Of the poor humble
trash man. The situation has become
so acute that the president of the
Animal Relief and Humane Education
League appealed to Mai. Brown, the
superintendent of police, and that
good friend Of animals and of this
organization has issued orders to his
men to promptly ticket and punish
violators so blocking horse fountains.
These horse fountains can allay
the thirst of small animals and birds
in the vicinity as well, but there is
scarcely a drop of fresh water pro-
vided in the miles and miles of the
city's back alleys for the poor stray
cats and dogs The least any one can
do even though he will not feed them
or rescue them, is to keep a pan of
fresh water available in back or front
for any passing creature, or if he has
any sort of lawn, q bird bath should be
provided. Water Is the cheapest thing
any one can offer a suffering creature,
and 1t takes but moment a day to
provide it in the name of Him who
promised a blessing to those offering
1t even to the least of these, His crea-
lures. Cannot we, therefore, stop long
enough on these hot days, in our
frenzied attempts to cool off and allay
our own thirst, to think of and provide
water for our speechless birds and
animal friends and helpers?

Fifteen Years in Hiding

Fifteen years ago Kaspar Hauser
took refuge in the home Of his brother
in Riga, Latvia, newly created an
independent state in the partition Of
Russian territories after the Great
War. He had fought in the war
and most of his relatives believed that
he had been killed in action. BY
some means he had, however, escaped
that fate and had fled the military
service. For all these years he has
been concealed, but at last he was
found and dispatch tells of his ar
rest as a deserter. He is now forty,
bent from his confinement, barely
able to walk, and looks twenty years
more than his age. What will happen
to him now is unknown.
This is indeed material for story
Fifteen years of hiding, not in Sc
cluded region, but in the very capital
of his country. One hundred and
eighty months, fifty five hundred
days, of seclusion, every day terror
of anxiety, for himself and his brother
and the family, every rap at the dool
a possible blow of doom, every visitor
suspect. Perhaps the fugitive was
kept In one room throughout ths

Owners Rarely Subrent
Residential Properties
To the Editor of The Star:

To the Editor of The Star:
Your paper carried an article on
August % alluding to high rents for
houses in Washington in general and
in particular to those in a dilapidated
condition.
do not wish to enter into any
controversy as to the merits of this
article. Nevertheless there appears to
be discrepancy which reflects un-
favorably to the real estate owner.
You pictured house in which you
listed the rent of the various rooms,
stating that the owner received total
of $55 per month for the premises.
am wondering whether it is not
a fact that the owner of this property
rents it to one person and that person
rents out the rooms at the prices
stated in your article.
My experience in the real estate
business has been that it is very sell
dom that an owner of real estate
rents rooms or suites in houses, es-
pecially of this type. The case that
you cited may be one of the excep-
tional cases where the owner does
rent individual rooms. 1t would be
interesting, nevertheless, to learn just
how much rent the owner of this
property obtains for same.
In this connection I am interested
in a large house containing fourteen
rooms and three baths, which rents
for $92.50 per month. While I do
not have the figures to substantiate
it, am satisfied that the party leas-
ing the house from me re-rents the
rooms for more than double the
amount of the rent that I am paid.

same place you left 1t of, perhaps
on this very spot, days ago.
Many things have happened since,
but each finds that one thing has
not happened-a change in the out
look of the other upon the topics
of the day. One still is "for," the
other "ag'in" what is going on. One
is pleased, one is diSpleased, still
Though the political heavens should
fall the opinion of each will not
change.
Pleasant on the sidewalk is the
face of the purely casual scquaint-
ance one does not know very well,

to wave a hearty greeting.
There is a sense of surprise, in

all.

There are a great many persons,
undoubtedly, who still keep some hold
on an interesting game, if it may be
called such, INDUCED in by small
town people.
This is a very simple game, one
rather better known to young per-
sons and older ones who like to stay
young as long as possible.
1t calls for the idea Of meeting
some one before one sets out.
Often it is no more than a hope,

Sure enough, So-andSo is the very

But no doubt it happens here, too.
X X 4
"Why, hello; I haven't seen you
for a long time!"
Just a simple, everyday greeting,
but it carries a world of meaning.
There is the swift appraisal, one of
the other. The next remark, usually,
runs something along this line:
MY, how fat you are gettingl"
Some day, in a real civilization,
there will be no more personal re-
marks, but until the millennium most
persons who dare to put on few
added pounds with advancing years
will find it necessary to put up with
| them-both remarks and pounds.
My, how fat you are getting! AS
| if fat were not very common thing,
alas Surely there is nothing about
it to excite comment, one way or
another, unless the victim has
chanced to have gained some 100
pounds or so.
These little remarks aside, ac-
quaintances fall to chatting-do you
remember Bill, what has become of
Mamie, etc.
X X n X
There is a great deal of time to
be made up, in such encounters; that
is the real reason why the parties to
it should waste no time in pointing
out the obvious.
Time really does something to peo-
pie, more than distance, or any
amount of separation. Time is the
great divider. Its mere passage is
enough to change all things, and to
make most things pass away. Time
away from another makes changes
more obvious. The sprinkling of
gray in the hair-the lines that have
appeared around the mouth-the ex-
ira layer Of fat-they may be men
toned, but why should they?
There are enough matters for ac-
quaintances to talk over, without
going into these, and really wise hu-
man beings never indulge in them,
but rather discuss the weather, If
nothing more comes to mind After
| all, the weather is a real good topic.
