to find them at all, in the hearts Of his fell
low-men.
There is something about this urge which
comes to men ike Darrow to take the part Of
men who can not fight for themselves which
can seem like the soundest Of all evidences.
The old warhorse, who has never been too
tired to fight somebody elses battle, may think
Of himself as blind and helpless pawn Of
chance, wandering under starless sky.
But somehow he hasn't acted like one. His
deeds have been like the deeds of a man who
has seen CLEAN Of light at the edge Of the
horizon and who, seeing it, has known that
there is more to life than some of us suppose.
He has built his life by a pattern that
would be useless if his own respondent belief
were true.
His life is about finished, and his words are
hopeless. But his life itself is the very stuff Of
which human hope is made.

THE MIND OF A POLITICIAN

TOHN COLLIER, United States commissioner
of Indian affairs, has been laboring to give
the Indian better break in life. His efforts
have aroused good deal of opposition, some of
which is rather selfish. Perhaps the prize ex-
hibit in the whole case was submitted the
other day before the House Indian Affairs sub
committee.
The witness was one Joseph Bruner head of
the American Indian Federation, and one of
Golfers most determined opponents Collier
had charged that this federation was a fake:
Bruner was there to reply to the charge.
And for reply, he submitted to the sub
committee a poem which Collier wrote way
back in 1911, praising the Spanish anarchist,
Francisco Ferrer!
You might cali that a sample of political
argument at its worst. Two men in public life
argue; one charges that the other represents
sham organization; the other replies that his
opponent, "a years ago, praised an anarchist
Could political argument get much emptier
than this?

when all the trappings of state are
removed, stand as the insignia Of
its power. The Administration has
been successful in destroying the
rights of every citizen to hold and
own one single coin of the nations
gold supply. In the bonus question
there is the matter of whether the
Administration will be able to de-
Stroy the individuals right to de-
termine how the sword of the ma
ton shall be used and to what pur-
pose. If the Administration by in
direction Through ruthless confisca-
ton of gold holdings) has been able
to begin the demolition of the title
of ever World War veteran to his
stake in the national Treasury then
it has started the final overthrow
of the republic.
No nation in all history survived
when it violated its solemn word to
its military defenders. The Admin
istration may have caught many
unawares in its sudden seizure of
public and private holdings of gold.
The Patman bill gives the nation
the chance to checkmate that bold
move. If the people do not take
advantage Of that opportunity time
alone will tell what awaits US.

BLUE PLANET

DR. VEso M. sLIPHER. director of the
- Lowell Observatory at Flagstaff, Ariz, is
scientist And he was speaking in literal,
and not a figurative sense when he told the
American Philosophical Society that, viewed
from Mars, the earth is blue planet
DR.. Slipher's deduction was based upon
an analysis of the earth's lights and shadows
reflected from the dark side Of the moon
not upon the overtones of an impending Euro
pean war or upon a Republican politicians
hignlghts of the New Deal.
The earth, he says, is even bluer than
Venus. That planet, which appears hazy
through our most powerful telescopes, is af-
flicted with dust storms worse than those that
have been laying grimy blanket across our
mid-continent
If our scientists who speak so expertly Of
worlds fifty million miles distant, could only
train their genius upon the near-at-hand
shadows! If they could only tell us how to
handle such paradoxes as want amid abund-
ance, so the job wouldn't be left to political
medicine menl If they could only save us
from those born in the dark Of the moon!"

WRONG POINT OF VIEW

CHARLES M. sCHWAB still thinks he was
- right when he remarked, early in the de-
preston, that there are no rich men left in
America.
II only want to point out" he tells the an
nual meeting of the Pennsylvania Society in
New York. that was practically right. There
are no rich men left in the old sense of the
word but we have made up for that in happi-
ness. We may have lost great sums of money
and profits, but we now retain the sentimental
fellowships of old times"
All this probably sounds excellent, if you
who read it are in the upper income tax brack-
cts But if, like the vast majority of your
countrymen, you are not, it sounds just about
as hollow as the original remark.
There are a great many rich men left in
this country, and the sharpest criticism that
is made Of our recovery program is that it
is henefiting them more than it is benefting
the little fellows.
Mr.. Schwab is an immensely able industri-
alist but as a commentator on the distribu-
ton of wealth he is something less than in
spired.

DARROW'S DEEDS

CLARENCE BARROW tells reporters that
~ he is tired old man now, waiting for
death, and adds that he is positive that after
death there will be nothing else to wait for.
ever.
IT No 'onger doubt" he says, II know now
that there is nothing after death-nothing to
look forward to in joy or fear. am not an
agnostic any more; am a materialist. There
is no evidence under the sun of a supernatural
power"
barrow is not the first man to come to this
gloomy conclusion. AS long ago as Old Test
ament days, the writer of Ecclesiastes seems to
have had somewhat the same notion.
But just as this Old Testament scribe be-
He'd his own doubts by proving that the hui
man spirit can transcend its fleshly limitations,
so barrow, too in a different way, has left
a record that makes his own materialism look
hollow.
Clarence Darrow has had long and active
life, and a great deal Of it has been filed with
desperate, last-ditch battles for men less for
tunate than himself. And when you have
made al possible allowances for keen law
yer's delight in the game itself, and for the
incentive which high fees can provide, there
remains something else which is not accounted
for on any basis of strict materialism.
For underneath everything else, Darrow has
been moved by a rich human sympathy, an
understanding of erring humanity. and warm
desire to take the side of the man whom
everybody is against. which does not precisely

ism.

THE PACIFIC AIRWAY
IA scRIPPs-HowARD NEwsPAPERl

DOUBLING back from Honolulu, the giant
~ Pan-American Clipper came to rest on
San Francisco Bay, annexing the air over the
great Pacific to the dominion Of man and
science For this completed two-way journey
not only brought Hawaii closer to the main
land; it covered the longest single span in the
over-water course between California and the
shores Of Asia.
This summer a regular trans-Pacifc air
service will link San Francisco with Manila
and Canton experimenting the principal lane
of ocean commerce between civilizations Oldest
and newest continents.
1t is fitting that these super flying boats be
called clipper ships, for they are following the
grand tradition of the Yankee clippers that
once carried large share Of the worlds COM
unerce in American bottoms
The company that is pioneering the Pacific
airway is the same one that already has estab-
lshed probably the worlds most efficient over
seas and international air service. Its net
work south of Key West and the Rio Grande
connects Latin-American centers with those
of the United States, and speeds up the trade
Of the western hemisphere.
These new air services can become last
ing and increasing blessing, if only the states
men OF the Americas and Asia take progress
as their cue, scaling down economic barriers
and nationalist and racial prejudices

THE WIND
BY UNKNOWN

If I were the wind I'd take rest,
I'd blow me far out to the west,
To some lone retreat
And there I'd lay me down
So quiet and still,
That folks would ask,
Can he be III?
No longer does he fan my brow,
No longer do I hear his songs,
Can he be i'll?
He's tired know, he surely must be,
He goes so far, he goes so free;
He kisses the high mountains,
He fans the lea,
He twirlS the gray sand
And churns the sea;
He's weary I know,
He needs a long rest,
If he'd only cease blowing,
Blowing out Of the west.
Now gently he comes, then Wild he
goes,
Never watching for signals, never
stopping for curves,
Blowing up Ger mere nothing,
He screams with delight
I'm bowling, I'm roaring, I'm rag
ing tonight;
If he'd only stop pestering
And end his wild fray,
If he'd leave us alone for only day
We might see some virtue In what
he has done
In drying the earth and clearing the

ANOTHER GOAL

THE national campaign to prevent grade
l. and rail crossing accidents should be
opened locally in Indianapolis in order to pre-
vent recurrence of such tragedy as Monday
took the life of 15-year- old boy.
Although the crossing where he was killed
is marked with a warning signal, there are
other places in and near the city where much
could be done to save lives.
The traffic problem in Indianapolis and
Its vicinity continues to be severe one de-
spite the police drive. Carelessness OF motor
lists and pedestrians seems to be something
that can not be controlled until it is too late
Nc effort should be spared by the author1-
tics in their attempts to halt the accidents and
II grade crossing elimination will reduce the
dangers, then il should become one Of the out
standing goals in the campaign.

FUTURE EARTHQUAKES

ME earthquakes Of Easter weekend, shak-
ing down homes and killing hundreds in
Persia as well as thousands in Formosa, came
from % miles down in the earth's cavernous
deeps according to Prof. H. Landsberg of
Pennsylvania State College. From sciences
scant chronological records DR.. Landsberg says
a shaIlow-focus disturbance may be expected
a week before the end Of July. Where it will
strike and how destructive it will be, he can
not predict.
Earthquakes, like wars and depreSSions still
appau and battle the human race. But some
day science may rob even these of much of
their terror In modern cities the greatest
earthquake hazards to life are in fire and
panic When we learn to build substantial
dwellings, decentralize our populations and
provide ample fire protection, we can consign
even this peril to our museum Of outlived
fears
California cities, not satisfied with bowling
to natures bullying, are quake-proof1ng their
school buildings and experimenting fre-fght-
ing apparatus with high-pressure saltwater
systems.
Eventually biologists may be able to predict
subterranean disturbances as easily as meteor
ologists now forecast weather. Recently
Thomas Midgley told the American Chemical
Society that probably some day men will travel
between planets, prevent wars, eliminate can
Ger, and control their own age. Men will never
admit themselves beaten by natural forces.

LAND GRANTS WOULD

By Single Tax Convert.
Why are the single takers" so
silent? We never see anything
printed in the newspapers from
them. What little have heard and
read of Henry Georges political
economy, it seems it would be just
the thing to solve almost all of our
difficulties. Why all this founder
ing around in regard to taxes, which
are so difficult to collect and fall
so much heavier on labor (Which is
the producer Of all wealthy than on
our wealthy class?
You often hear it said this man
or that man got rich on the stock
market. Did you ever stop to think
where that wealth came from? AS
I understand it, money is only a
medium of exchange. But where
does the exchange come from? No
other place than land.
If the government were to give
each unemployed able bodied man
small tract Of Is or 20 acres, not
to be sold outright Cor some wealthy
landlord would soon have it alb but
collect rent from it according to the
value or location Of the land. No

would soon encourage him to spend
money to improve, thus creating a
market for labor and material. He
later could own as much land as he
would be able 10 pay rent for,
whether he used it or not, but it
would be unlikely he would pay for
it and not use it. Doesn't this seem
an easy and logical solution to our
present or future difficulties?

Police Revision Needed
BY the F0recaster.

By the FOrecaster.
The police department of a city
is essentially for the maintenance
of law and order. The Consti-
tuition guarantees the individual
liberty. But any time an indi-
vidual takes more than his share
of liberty he is taking away the
liberty Of another individual.
AS business increases and bust
ness and social contacts multiply
the duties of the police officers be-
come more and more complex and
consequently must be dealt with
specifically.
For example, there are the
traffic officers who deal primarily
with the traffic problem. There
are the cyclists who deal princi-
pally with the violators of traffic
regulations. There are the ra-
dio patrolmen who cruise about
the city in an attempt to preserve
order.
Psychology in the present day
is advancing swiftly. So is psy-
choanalysis. One is led to be-
lieve that the time has arrived
when the local police should
make a sincere effort to place the
profession on more aignif1ed,

STILL IN MIDDLE AGES

INTO Smithland, KY, focked 1900 people to
l. see youth openly hanged by the law from
high scaffold. The crowd-it would have been
larger but for the weather-listened while the
doomed man cursed, argued freely with a
woman in the audience who had accused him
of attacking her, harangued and ranted for
SO minutes before the trap was sprung under
him.
Doubtless many Americans were Mortified
by the picture. 1t was page torn from the
Middle Ages, showing humans, created "a
little below the angels" sinking below the level
of animals. But why should they be shocked?
Hanging bad men is supposed to deter other
bad men from crime. This is capital punish
ment'S only excuse Hence, it is logical that
as many people as possible should witness the
bad mans death Under this theory execu-
tons should be held in the town square, as
they used to be.
The very fact that the law usually does its
grisly work in secret. witnessed by only few
invited guests, proves that society now knows
its deed does not deter, that while killing one
it brutalizes many, that it fails in its only jus
tifcation
England used to hang men in the public
square for theft. 1t is recorded that during
such executions pickpocketS would ply their
trade among the crowds at the very foot of
the galows. Kentucky, equally logical, will
find that public hangings will not cure crime
any more effectively.
