THE AMERICAN WAY

7 CAN'T see millions of people on direct re-
4 lief" said Relief Administrator Harry Hop
kins. i don't think that is the American way"
But, unfortunately, it has been the Amer
lean way up until now.
Years ago Bismarck for Germany Lloyd
George for Britain, leaders for other industrial
nations abandoned charity doles and set up
systems of insurance against industrial injury,
sickness widowhood, old age, unemployment,
and other social hazards 1t has taken the
United States five years of degrading doles,
now costing the federal government upward
of a billion dollars year, to learn the costs
of industrial unpreparedness.
There are thirteen other countries in which
unemployment insurance is compulsory, ten
in which it is voluntary. Recently Wisconsin
put into effect our first state unemployment
insurance system.
More than one-third of the worlds popula-
ton now are covered by some governmental
system for old age protection People of China,
India and the U. S. A. still have none. OF
the twenty-eght states that have old age pen
sions about twenty have adequate systems.
Some twenty-five countries, with a total
population of more than 50O0OOO00 people,
have compulsory systems of health insurance
for all or part Of their workers. China, India
and the U. S. A have none.
At last, however, we are on our way. The
President has started a summer of investiga-
tons under a cabinet committee headed by
Secretary of Labor Perkins This committee
will gather facts hold hearings and prepare a
broad program to be presented to the next
congress. This will cover what the President
calls 1.-The security of the home, the security
surance."
We are about to abandon the cruel old ways
of chance and neglect, of grudging minimum
handouts and poor farms, of fear and despair

CENSORS THROTTLE EUROPE

D UTHLEss dictatorship. creeping from
N country to country, has strangled free
dom Of the press and thought among three
fourths of the people Of Europe.
The condition abroad offers a remarkable
contrast to the freedom of thought and con-
science and the freedom of the press which
the American people have preserved through
out the present world af1iction.
Three hundred million people in ten coun-
tries are victims of ron-hecled censorship.
Sixty millions in six countries are being
dragged under it.
Albin E. johnson. in an article in Editor
and Publisher, declares from Geneva:
Less than 26 per cent of Europes popula-
ton enjoys anything that remotely resembles
personal liberty and freedom of expression
and conscience
In map accompanying the article, black,
indicating absolute censorship, and shading,
indicating limited censorship. cover all of
Europe except France. the British Isles, Den
mark. Norway and Sweden and Czecho-
slovakia It is as if a giant pail had been laid
thwart a continent
The people are told what it is thought
good for them to know" by the likes of Hitler
and Goebels. When public support lags the
dictators give the people a shot in the arm"
-anger-stirring lies such as we're fed the war
time nations.
Newspapers have died away like hies-5OO
in a year in Germany. Readers have disap-
peared turning to foreign newspapers. which
in turn are being barred and even censored.
"A new generation" says MI. johnson, is
growing into youth and manhood beyond the
Alps almost entirely ignorant of what is hap
pening politically beyond their frontiers" And
in Germany given time, the Nazis will develop
their system to point where when three or
four Germans are gathered together all will
loudly praise Der Fuerhrer. because none has
confidence in the others"
BY contrast. in this nation the press, speech.
thought remain free. The value in this
hereditary right Of the American people is
seldom specifically considered by the average
person. it is so universally taken for granted.
But a poison OF censorship which, propa-
gated at home and abroad by dictators. has
afflicted 36OOOOOOO or three-fourths Of the
people Of Europe. completely destroying their
freedom Of press and other civil liberties. is a
threat in times like these to even the freest
people on earth.
Censorship breeds in economic misery,
father OF relationships. A free press and free
speech taken for granted here. need 10 be
watched with the greatest vigilance by the
American people in their effort TO Danish
misery by democratic methods.

AN OLD PROPHECY

NOTHING is much more interesting than
' to look back at the prophecies of the
past. One Of these, just revealed by publ
cation at Moscow of old documents in the
ex-czars foreign Office, is especially interest
ing to Americans.
In 1898, while the Spanish American war
was at its height, the Russian ambassador at
washington wrote size-up of the situation
for his home government. He recognized
the fact that a new world power was being
born, and he saw also that America was max
ing a complete break with its past, and he
said:
Not so long ago there occurred COM
plete revolution in the ideas and political
principles of this country. Not satisfied with
the past, upon which she has built up her
wealth, happiness, and prosperity. she strives
to discover a future which in all probability
will hold innumerable disappointments and
serious trouble for her"
Considering the fact that the World war
and its accompanying troubles were among
the things that we Numbered into thereafter,
it looks as if this czarist ambassador was a
pretty good prophet.
