What We Think
(By Frank Dixon)

The best thing I have seen on the
war situation appeared in Irwin
Cobbs daily article.
After pointing out that Italy
started the war against Ethiopia
purely for the purpose of grabbing
off more territory he asks the ques-
ton who can stop Italy in her raid
on this weaker nation?
He answers it by saying only the
nation that can come into the af-.
fair with clean hands.
He then proceeds to eliminate
most of the nations by pointing out
their own faults along this line. It
couldn't be Britain because Of her
record in the opium war.
It couldn't be France because of
her record toward Colonial posses
sions and lately occupied territories.
It couldn't be Belgium with her dark
record in the Congo. It couldn't be
The Kennewick courier-reporter. [volume] (Kennewick, Wash.) 1914-1938, 1935-10-24

Spain with the Riff to accuse her.
It couldn't be Germany which grab
bed off the richest slice of Africa.
It couldn't be Japan with her teeth
set in China's torn flanks. It could
MT be America with long centuries
behind her of her treatment of the
Indians. E
He concluded with this paragraph
which is a gem for eloquence and
truth: Out of all history, you'll find
but one world conqueror who came
with clean hands-and those hands
the soldier pierced with iron spikes
as they nailed the Nazarene to the
Cross.
note that Adrian the style Car
of the movies takes a crack at the
prevailing styles that only man of
uncanny knowledge or else utter
disregard for the consequences
would take.
He says: Stacks are definitely out
for women. Romantic psychology is
responsible. Women are thinking
along feminine lines. All mannish
modes are passe. Even pajamas are
being discarded for night gowns.
Long hair is coming back because
the fashion phase that harks back
for generation or two, bobbed
hair is too out-of-keeping.
~ ***&
I had truck driver who delivers
coal for a local firm strike me for
an order for my winters coal. The
truck driver delivers the coal at so
much a ton and he was interested
in getting all the tons he could to
haul. The arrangement struck me
as a good one. Instead of sitting
down and cussing the government
between loads he was out rustling
more business. A man with that
much initiative and enterprise
should make good truck driver.

WE NOTE that the treasures of
w the National committees of

fact that of the Democratic COM
mittee is something like 100000

the treasury of the Republican Ma

but if the Democrats can't collect
enough from the multitude of office

have less ability as financiers than
we have been led to believe they

YOUR SAFETY BRAKES

it capable of exercising wisely such
vast powers? Let's see what it
might mean to us in America, II
Congress, uncontrolled by the Con-
stitution, were to have all the
authority now exercised by certain
legislative bodies and dictators In
Europe. g..
1t could mean, for example, the
end of Home Rule. A majority of
Congressman, thus free of constitu-
tional restraints, could, if they de-
sired, supplant your own mayor or
governor with an alphabetical COM
mission from Washington. They
could change the land laws Of
Pennsylvania, the election laws Of
Georgia, or the traffic laws of your
home town. And, short of revolu-
ton, you'd have to take it and
like it.
It could mean the death of per-
sonal liberty in America.

wanted to penalize you for too free

Under the restraints exercised by
the people through their Constitu-
ton they couldn't do these things
today. But if Congressional author
ity superseded our Bill of Rights,
all Congress would have to do
would be to pass the necessary acts,
and they would be accomplished.
Of course, no one would say that
the present Congress would pass
such acts, even If it had the power.
But no one can say either what q
future Congress, unrestrained by
the Constitution, might attempt.
Who, twenty-five years ago, could
have imagined a Germany or a
Russia governed as those nations
are today? Unlimited power,
granted to legislative groups and
dictators, made it possible.
Don't leu them scrap the Consti-
tuition, which has protected the
rights of American citizens since
1889, and will continue to protect
them as long as it is preserved

NEW YORK, April 13.-Helped
along by steadiness in utility issues,
the bond market made modest prog
ress in today's brief session. United
States Governments showed slight
improvements over the previous day.
A smart rally in leading utility
stocks stimulated interest in this
group of bonds and gains of minor
fractions to around point were well
distributed over a wide range, and
included such issues as Postal Tele-
graph SIS at 42sl, Kansas Gas & Elec-
trio 412s at 104A and Columbia Gas
IS at 83A. Others joining in the up
ward drive included obligations of
American Telephone, international
Telephone and Western Union.
In the other divisions of the list
the trend was not quite so uniform,
but minor gains outnumbered de-
clines Secondary rails were again a
popular trading medium. and advances
were made by such leaders as st. Paul
Ss, Erie SIS, Nickel Plate 4l2s and
Southern Pacific 4l2s. The sustained
advances in this group of bonds
brought out some profit taking as &C

most active loans changing hands at
lower levels were Baltimore & Ohio

way of price changes. American

CHICAGO, April 13.-All future de-
liveries of wheat started today touch
mounted further. A new top price
record for the season was quickly
established for July and September
contracts.
Stimulating the rise of values were
Liverpool dispatches saying the wheat
market there was strong with an ad-
vancing trend, and that Argentine
wheat prices were higher. Attention
was also focused on reports of per-
sistent dry weather in domestic wheat
territory Southwest and additional
dust storms.
Opening Is off to So up, May, ST.
H-ss, Chicago wheat afterward
showed all around gains before re-
acting somewhat. Corn opened at 4
decline to "a advance. May. 88l2-5s,
and subsequently altered little.
Big profit-taking sales developed on
the fresh bulge in wheat prices, and
temporarily the entire market tumbled
to below the dollar level. This was
the case especially with new crop
months. both July and September fall
ing about cent from early top fig
ures. Some trade leaders stressed
that throughout this season it had
been difficult to maintain prices
above 81.
On the other hand, bulls contended
that only further advance of to 10
cents would permit Argentine wheat
10 be imported into the United States,
II Argentine prices remained un-
changed. Such situation in Argen-
tina was declared unlikely.
Lively rebounds in wheat prices fol-
lowed setbacks to under the dollar
level. On the rebounds, the market
decidedly surpassed earlier maximum
prices, and trading attained broad
proportions. Corn and oats dupli-
Gated wheat action.
