Disagrees With Anti War Move

to distinguish between bleaching
and blood.
Suppose the country were caught
up in one of those familiar war
propaganda waves such as I'M
dermined the country'S morale
from 1915-1917? Suppose a refer
endum such as Mr.. Ludlow pro-
poses would produce a result such
as the election of 116 produced
what then? In such a close issue
it is conceivable that another
Civil War and not the "wiping
out" of war would be the harvest!
Furthermore, what would be the
part of the newspapers? No, Mr..
Ludlow unwittingly forgot to
mention the paper bullets" that
are so essential to stir the masses
into a fighting mood. One look at
the American front page of the
last IL years is enough to show
how Germany, Russia (and now
Japan and italy, have been
thrown out of their historical per-
spectives, and made to look silly
in American readers eyes. Not
until Hitler had fought his way
to the top, and, with a united
Germany behind him, had thrown
the gauntlet down to the Allies
and called their bluf1ng insin-
certify, did the American press
begin to give the man his dues!
Mr.. Editor, the press believes in
fighting, in war, in defending
ones self with strong arm! So
do manly men! Why do you hand
out such ill-conceived, inconsis-
tent, misleading. editorials as
Wipe Out WARP" Or, do you
think people will find their way"
as well e the dark?
The Kellogg pact outlawed war
long ago-during very unevent-
full Coolidge campaign; 1t may
be that Rep. Ludlow is thinking
of the next Congressional cam
paign! His resolution is worded
very guardedlyl We're going to
vote about entering a war hence
forth. just as we did in 1916!

BY Woodrow Wilson Man.
Even editors errl
In Tuesdays Times the editor
tops his column with the slogan,
Wipe Out War;" Rep. Ludlow's
Anti-War Bill, III. j. Res. 167," is
made the text. for another lauda-
tory gesture about "the one bright
spot in a chaotic world" And,
even without passage-aS one of
Indiana's outstanding contribu-
tions to American statecraft," the
editor of The Times tells us.
With all due respect to the edi-
tors sincerity, it must be pointed
out that Rep. Ludlow is wander
ing up the wrong road on the war
problem. And The Times edi-
tor, evidently believing to pick a
hat full of wild strawberries, is
following close behind.
To begin with, Mr.. Editor, can't
you see that joker in the first
sentence? In fact, the first word,
except" reveals how futile if not
silly this widely advertised inten-
ton to wipe out var" is going
to be. Rep. Ludlow turns out to
be as shallow in his thinking as
Senator Vandenberg Of Michigan
was months ago in an article in
Liberty Magazine on How to
Bankrupt the God of War" It's
pitifully plain. Each of these foes
of bloodshed has a gadget for
stopping the war game, but on
close examination the gadget
turns out to be a gun in disguise.
Each of these gentlemen insists
on certain rights and each is
aware that in the very insistence
lies the moral obligation to war.
And yet, they get all hot and
bothered about a resolution whose
only accomplishment is million
dollars worth of free advertising
in the home state!
Ward politicians can be forgiven
for playing such game with the
masses. But an editor of a
Scripps- Howard paper should be
both sufficiently honest and able

ROOSEVELT NOT AFRAID
TO FACE CRISIS

BY Reader.
President Roosevelt's reasonings
in connection with his proposal to
lay heavier taxes on big corpora
tions. etc, are sound to the core.
The apparent resignation Of the big
ones affected to the proposal but
doubt the feasibility of attempting
it at this time because it will, as
they say, hamper business and re-
tard recovery should fool no one.
We know if this reason were not
given there would be some other
reason why it should not be done

The Book World

A TREMENDOUS and vitality important vol
N ume is the 746-page BLACK Reconstruc-
ton" the story Of the Negro races economic
history in the United States since the Civil war
by the great Negro historian, Prof. w. E. Burg
hart Du Bois (FIarcourt, Brace; S4.50).
Comparable in clarity and originality with
The Rise of American Civilization" by the
Boards, Black Reconstruction is an intensely
personal work Of the brilliant DR.. Du Bots and
it will serve to rank him with the greatest his
torians this nation has produced.
Considering the Negro not as inferior to the
white man by nature, but merely handicapped
by the lack of education and capital, Dr. Du
Bots warns his readers at the outset OF his point
of view, asserting that those who do not see
growth in the Negro will not welcome his book.
BY reconstruction, DR.. Du Bots means that
period of economic upheaval in the South from
1860 to 1880 when the slave labor system was
disrupted and the Negro compelled to become
self-sustaining. He paints the growing swell
OF Negro dissatisfaction mounting IN the war
wears until it becomes a general strike, ana the
transfer of the Negroes labor from the South's
planters to the Norths invaders. DR.. Du Bots
contends this forced the hand of President Lin
coin, whom he sees as compelled to free the
slaves to make use of them, since the draft was
not yielding enough white soldiers.
Dr. Du Bois true TO his more than quarter
of century of unselfsh work, is an evangelist
for education.
1T is" he writes zones moral duty to see
that every human being, TO the extent OF his
capacity escapes ignorance, poverty and crime"
DR.. Du Bots has written a personal master
piece. He deserves far more than reviewers
orchids.
THREE new and readable mystery stories
i have emerged into the scene this week.
They are, in the order of their merit:
This Is Murder" by Charles J. Kenny tWm.
Morrow & Son; So
Murder in Chelsea" by E. C. R. Lorac
(Ndacauley; So.
The Mystery Of Khufu's Tomb" by Talbot
Mundy Cd. Appleton-Century So.
Mr.. Kenny'S book introduces a brand -new
detective Sam Moraine, who moves through
kidnapping and. two murders at a terrific pace.
master at deduction and at getting himself
into tight spots, Sam Moraine makes dandy
detective
Murder in Chelsea" has Inspector MacDon-
aid of Scotland Yard as the sleuth and while
there are so many twists that the poor old reader
hasn't chance of making good guess, it is
highly entertaining reading
In the usual Mundy style chat means action
galore "The Mystery of Khufu'S Tomb" I'M
ravels the story of two tough gentlemen and a
beautiful heroine and their adventures in the
Egyptian desert. There are Egyptian villains,
Chinese sage, and plenty of scrapping. It's
really wonderful how Mr.. Mundy can get all
that action into one book.
