to spend to aid relief and stimulate
recovery is at his wits end to try
and find out what to do with the
money. The most curious schemes
are being advanced and some pro-
jects that to say the least are fam
tastic, are being planned. The in
tention is good but the administra-
ton is discovering what a lot of
hard-headed old-timers have known
from the beginning-it is not pos
sible to create work artificially and
have it much else than wasteful.
1t is beginning to dawn even in
the inner recesses Of the brain
trusters that there Is something
lacking in artificial creation of
work and that flinging money
right and left doesn't accomplish
anything in the solution of the pro-
blem. The natural way for unem-
ployment to cease is for business
to recover. Then jobs are created
and endeavor is useful. Heaping
enormous taxes on business and
imposing restrictions that harness
and hinder have only one effect-to
delay the time when industry in a
natural way does the things that
never will be done otherwise to
solve permanently the unemploy-
ment problem. In other words the
country would get back on its feet,
business would revive and expand
and things would become natural
again If permitted to do so. 1t
looks as If the big job now Is to
head off the whole artificial pro-
gram-and just let nature take its
course.-Long Prairie Leader.

Book Reviews
By Miss Myaette Li,,deIof

Testament Of Youth-Vera Brit
tain. This is one of those rare
books which defy all classification.
1t is not only the intimate record
of an English girls life from 1900
to 1925, but the story Of a group OF
her contemporaries people
whose school days ended just as
the War broke out, and whose re-
lations developed around a story
Of young love.
Among the most deeply moving
scenes are those or the authors
voyage in the doomed hospital
ship, Britannia, through the sub
marine-infested waters of the Med
iterranean in the summer Of 1916;
of the Americans swinging conf
IDENTIFY forward to victory through
the driven and desperate chaos of
the retreat Of 1918; and of postwar
Europe.
This true story of a woman's life,
has both the fascination of greas
fiction and the lasting value of an
important social document. 1t is
a book Of great beauty and even
greater courage.

Many men loved Mikell but II

Another Large Conflict?

1t is predicted that Italy will declare war on
Ethiopia before September If they will set off
a bomb, the explosion Of which, may be felt the
world over. Several other countries may be
come embroiled in the carnage, ere it progresses
very far Uncle SAM according to recent dispatches,
is making earnest efforts to keep out of the African
conflict and has warned American citizens, who are
in Ethiopia, of the existing danger, and has asked
them to leave possible. Let hope that
the efforts earnest" and honorably be full
filled 1t is only short time in the memory of man,
when after promises to keep out Of war" we were
plunged headlong into the world slaughter 1t is not
improbable that this is the beginning of another
large conflict However, for the sake of humanity,
let hope not The price of victory is too great fos
the aggression of power, and the winner is as much
a loser as is the vanqushed.
In this case it is forciby brought to the attention
of all that peace pacts merely scraps of paper
and that the League of Nations as a body to outlaw
is merely pacifist effort for gulble people, at
least it AS long aggressive and powerful
nations seek power at the expense of the weak
there will be wars and rumors of wars.

Songs That Live

A little than 100 years ago there was born
near Pittsburg Pennsylvania Stephen Collins Fos-
ter whose best known songs have stirred the emo
tons of generations and live today in the hearts
of his countrymen do those of no other American.
Millions who have sung and learned them never
knew the name of their author, who Of a quiet
and retiring disposition delicate child and never
robust
He began writing songs at the age Of 13 and by
the time he was 20 his compositions had gained
siderable favor He wrote in all about 125 songs Of
which the most famous have Southern setting, al
though he was born, lived and died in the North
Among Fosters songs which had universal ap-
peal may be mentioned "Old Black Joe." "Od Folks
at Home" "Massa's in the Cold Cold Ground" and
the exquisite vocal quartette Come Where My Love
Lies Dreaming" These and others have been popular
on both sides Of the Atlantic and their words have
been translated into many tongues. Great musicians
incorporated several Of these melodies elaborate
concert fantasies.
Foster wrote both words and music of his songs
which made an epoch in popular music. He died in
New York in 1864 but his plaintive haunting melo-
dies seemed destined for immortality.

Prominent Democrats Uphold Republican
Bunk"

New Deal newspapers of the past several weeks
have asserted that Republicans in the recent grass
root" and other conventions have had nothing new
to offer. They gave to the public the same old Re
publican trpe According to political events of the
past year it has been necessary for the ad-
minstration to shake up bag of new tricks every
and then in order to keep top. Some Of these
tricks have amuck when it was found they
unconstitutional.
Possibly the preservation of the Constitution in
opposition to dictatorship centralized government
is tripe according to the New Dealers but not all
Democrats feel that way about it, as is shown by
several Fourth of July speeches made by prominent
men of that party
The preservation of the Constitution, the Su-
preme Court state rights, etc., in opposition to a
centralized or bureaucratic government were the
subjects of talks given by Senator Harry F. Byrd at
Washington, Governor Albert Richie, of Maryland,
Governor Eugene Talmadge, of Georgia, and others.
Their attacks deal methods were harsher
than those of the Republicans and they left doubt
in the minds Of their listeners that they fight
ing for government by and for the people.
Some people might think there are no dangers
along this line of thought and yet recent develop
ments in louisiana, where the "Kingfish" now
now happening in that state can happen to the
nation Several years ago were told that in the
not far distant future of the states of our Union
would deprive the people of the right to govern them
selves he would have believed the conveyor Of the
preposterous story insane. Yet the following
rights taken away from the people and CIV
to the Long organization prove the fact They
Control Of elections authority all non-eective
governmental employees, supervisory over all
state parish and local finances, hiring and firing
privileges school teachers and power to spend
state money for any purpose There is no end to
what might be accomplished by autocratic govern
ment It appears after all that the greater duty Of
Americans today Is the preservation of the constr
tuition 1t is not thought, but its guarantees Of
freedom have been tried and tested and have been
found to be no experiment
