For Humanity's Sake

Just when you begin to get discouraged by the way the human race takes advan- tage of every occasion to show the mean ness, the stupidity and the cruelty of which it is capable, something happens that makes you do an about-face and turn from sadness to admiration. Not so very long ago, it became known that a Philadelphia physician - Dr John A. Kolmer, head of Temple University's medical staff - had devised a vaccine which he hoped would be effective against that dread scourge, infantile paralysis.
 Creating such vaccine isn't just mat ter of getting bright idea, rushing off to the laboratory, and then stepping calm ly into a place among the immortalS of medical science. It calls for a vast num- Der of experiments, so that science may know exactly what the new serum will and will not do to persons into whose bodies it is injected. For such experiments, volun- teers are needed And submitting ones self to tests of that kind isn't exactly the softest assignment in the world. For one never knows, in advance, just what's go- ing to happen.
 Taking an untried new serum into your veins is like leaping off into the dark with out knowing whether there is solid footing or a bottomless bog below Anyhow, the point of all this is that as soon as it be- came known that Dr Kolmer was working on this serum, people began offering themselves as volunteers for these eXper iments. Literally hundreds of people called or wrote, asking that the eXperi- ments be made on them. Now it happens that the Philadelphia doctor isn't ready to accept any of these offers. First he wants to submit paper describing his serum to the American Medical Associa- tion. No actual inoculations will be made until after this body has had chance to discuss the entire project and pass on it's merits.
 But the mere fact that human beings, by the hundreds were eager to come for ward and let him try this serum on their bodies is an extraordinary thing. Down under everything else - under the folly and the blindness and the pettiness that go to make up human nature - there is an inexhaustible store of plain, old-fash- toned courage; a willingness to toss life in- to the scales and let it go, if chance runs the wrong way, for the sake of cause, or an ideal. It is the most encouraging thing about the human race. People who can rise above the oldest and greatest of all fears-the fear of death-have divinity in them, somewhere.

Other Movie Interests

"The crusade against movies, now at it's height" writes dramatic critic, may turn out to be the best thing which has happened recently to movie producers in Hollywood" He is not thinking especial ly of profit, or even of morals, but of dra- matic merit. As popular art, he sug gests, the movies may gain immensely by widening their field of interest and putting less emphasis on sex.
 So far, love has been the chief appeal in movies. It has been the easy and ap- parently the popular thing to do. For thousand years, this romantic love" has been sure hit in drama, poetry, novels and some other forms of art, in the west ern world. It has not had so strong an ap- peal in the Orient. And in the ancient world it seems to have been almost un- known in our modern sense. There Is lit tie of it in Greek and Roman drama or lit erature. They had love, of course, but sell dom dwelt on youthful romance. Sex was a natural phenomenon, treated naturally and simply.
 Our mystic Middle Ages developed love into Romance. And our modern films, like our modern short story and novel, have al- most worked it to death. The appeal of this art theme may still be granted. But . the strength of cheap and perfunctory ap- peal is largely a matter of age, and mil lions of movie patrons are presumably more than IA years old. This modern world has more rich and varied interests than any former age. It is time the film magnates set out to discover what most people are interested in most of the time There are vast fields of appeal almost un- touched-science, adventure, business, sport, economic struggle realms of pure fancy, character development and portray al of thousand kinds.

StiAing Criticism

Huey Long has started = or tried to start - dangerous innovation in his at- tempt to punish Louisiana newspapers for opposing his policies.
 The Louisiana legislature, at his bid ding, has voted 2 per cent tax on news paper advertising. That this represents a move to strike at the pocketbooks of editors who have dared to criticize the Kingish and his program is too obvious to be denied; and that it will meet the fate which awaits all efforts to curb free dom of the press in the United States is a pretty safe prediction.
 A very little thought will show how vicious is the principle embodied in legis- lation of this kind Suppose a state gov ernment is able at will, to impose sharp financial penalties on newsepares in the state. Will not the mere possession of this ability inevitably tend to silence criticism? Will not the people of the state, by virtue of that fact, be deprived of their right to know precisely what is going on in their government?

bor struggles. She had not been in close contact with organized labor.
 While a charming, talented woman, she is also somewhat weeks she would not tolerate Ed McGrady, a vice president of the A. E. of L., who Roosevelt want cd to be assistant secretary of labor.
 Instead she has leaned heav- fly on her solicitor, Charley Wy zanski. Born or wealthy, Polish parents, Wyzanski never had dirt on his hands, lives in lux ry, knows nothing of the labor movement. The New Deal has been great experience to Char ley, but he has not been such a great experience for it. Gradual ly he has broadened and inn proved, but he was not the key man for Miss Perkins to lean on. She needed bare-knuckle tactics. LATE ARRIVAL
 Miss Perkins, therefore, came on the scene late. Her ideas were excellent, her execution mediocre. Even an Al person in both, however, could hardly have salvaged things at that late date.
 With strikes popping all over the country the president finally had swung around to the idea of labor legislation, but only during the last days of Congress. And the idea he swung round to was not the old Wagner Bill, but mere remnant of it.
 It avoided the essential issue of arbitration, gave power chief ly for holding workers elections.
 Thus Miss Perkins found her. self hanstrung both as to time and power.
 SMOULDERING
 One other difficulty has cropped up throughout all the labor difficulties. It is the presi- dents apparent lack of realiza- ton of the new ferment among workers. While he has been dealing with Bill Green ct al, new leadership has developed which threatens to leave A. F. of l.. moguls with nothing but their fat gold watch chains and heavy paunches.
 It is belligerent, younger leadership, which, disgusted with the endless stalling of the Weir ton case, sore over the empty automobile settlement, and above all embittered by the

NEW HAVEN F. M.
(New Haven Journal Courier)


 Congressman Maloney suggests now Pierce M. Maher will be named acting postmaster for New Haven. Something is said about a deserved tribute to his years of service here. The tender is made to seem, then, something like d graceful gesture, an accolade to a man grown ripe in public work. But the fact is, MT Maher is not asking accolates. What he wants is the appointment as full post master. His friends, and those who do not know him but have done business through him take that stand. The reports from Washington do not, however, com ment on it.
 This silence is a very eloquent commentary on the way postmas- terships are awarded in the repub- lie, even under the New Deal. MT Maher has been in the postoffice business all his business life. He has worked through all the grades and has for years been the active manager of the postal business. When he becomes a candidate for postmaster, however, this record does him little good. Another man no doubt could get Mir Maher's eX- perience in MT Maher's service. But MT Maher has it now and is willing to make it available. He should be given the chance.

Rome Letter
By THOMAS B. MORGAN United Press Staff Correspondent

Rome. UP)-Sex in modern ad- vertising has been drowned on by the Vatican. Feminine curves, as illustrated in some of the modern publications, especially in Ameri- can magazines, do not meet with the approval of the Vatican au- thorities.
 The daily organ of the papal state, the "Osservatore Romano" in accepting whole page adver- tisement from one of the largest manufacturers of Italian low priced automobiles censored the gracious lines of the figure of a woman. removing certain rotundi- ties and substituting more old fashioned type of skirt for the closefitting one now in vogue. The change was, of course, made with the approval of the concern.
 The "Osservatore Romano" which is a newspaper with an in- creasing circulation and the only completely free news-sheet pub lished in the Italian peninsula, eX- ercises paternal cara over its publicity matter. With an eye on it's public, it refuses ads which play up to any form of vulgarity or sex appeal, and 1t reserves the right to modify drawings and press matter with the approval of the advertiser. If the advertiser does not agree to the changes, the advertinsement is refused. This, of course, does not often happen, but cases occasionally occur as wit ness the recent one of the smart lady getting into her car.

What can you do," some one asks "to enjoy money, that doesn't grow stale, except travel?" Plenty of people who have never had enough money to make this more than purely hypothetical ques- tion will have ready answers for it. It can always be given away to supply scholarships, endow hospitals, promote research in any number of fields import ant to humanity, send needy children to camps in the country and send country children to enjoy some-of the advantages and interests of the cities-museums gymnasiums, concerts and plays. People who have shared in such enterprises in the past have seemed to find them never growing stale or tedious.
