SECURITY BILL
ISPUT BEFORE
UPPER HOUSE
Marks Another Step in Ef-
forts by Roosevelt for
New Conditions
HUEY LONG WILL
SEEK AMENDMENTS
By ARTHUR F. DEGREVE
United Press Staff Correspondent

BY ARTHUR r. DEGREVE
United Press Staff Correspondent
WASHINGTON, June Is. (UP).
President Roosevelt's sweeping
plan to guarantee security to the
common man against the hazards
of unemployment and the fear of
penniless old age was placed be-
fore the senate yesterday with
leaders urging quick approval.
Passed by the house several
weeks ago, the social security
bill was submitted to the upper
chamber by Chairman Pat Har-
Irison, D., Miss, of the finance
committee who explained it was
not a cure-all but was vitality es-
sential in meeting some of the
major economic hazards of life"
Some opposition was expected
but Harrison was confident the
measure would be enacted the
latter part of next week in a
form acceptable to the White
House. He deviated from the
usual custom of having the sem
ate recess today.
LONG is OUT WITH
ANOTHER THREAT
The first threat came from
Senator Huey P. Long. D., who
said he would attempt to add a
"share-the-wealth" amendment to
the bill. His amendment will
propose a graduating tax on per-
sonal fortunes 40 times the size
of the average yearly income"
"The states are broke now and
so are the people and they can't
afford to pay additional taxes to
finance this or any other
scheme" Long told newspaper
men. "My plan would take the
money away from the wealthy"
Senator Robert F. Wagner, d.,
N. Y, endorsed the bill as po-::
tential corrective for periodic un-
employment distress.
The security bill is designed to
meet three major problems:
First, Unemployment insurance;
second, pensions for the aged and
the blind: third, provisions for
child welfare. The plan en-
bodies the most successful fea-
lures of social programs which
have been in effect in European
countries for many years.
REQUIREMENTS FOR
EARLY FINANCING
Immediate appropriation au-
fluctuations necessary to finance
the program include: $3,5O0,OO0
for federal supervisory and ad-
ministrative expenses in connec-
ton with the state pension ana
child welfare services; S24,75O,-
600 for allotment to states hav-
ing old age pension systems; S24,-
100000 for dependent children;
S11,991 900 for child health, well
fare services, pensions to the
blind; 100000 to aid states IN
administering unemployment in
surance for 1886 and $4,000
600 annually thereafter
Harrison estimated that the
federal governments sare of the
expenses for the fisca! year 1886
would be approximately $98,0OO'-
900. $50,
The pending bill seeks to reach
its three major detectives in this
way: ~, -.

is fixed at 65. Under one plan,

CHISFLING SECURITY

FORTUNATELY for the q million wage
Il workers affected the House conferees yes
terday refused to recede on the vicious Clark
amendment the Senate wrote into the Eco
nomic Security Bill
The measure now goes back to the House
for debate We trust the House will stand
loyal to sound principles and insist that this
chiseling amendment go out of the window.
Had Senator Clark of Missouri designed to
kill off the economic security program he
could have contrived no better way. His
amendment, innocent on the surface, would
exempt private old-age retirement plans from
the workings of the Federal annuity system
Should this exemption remain, the 400-odd
little private plans would Immediately multiply
into thousands Soon we would have a dual
system, with privateers competing against the
government to its disadvantage and that of the
whole people.
Private companies find it profitable to build
their retirement systems on contributions from
younger workers or good risks" and to rid
their systems of older workers soon to be re-
tired The government plan, however, takes in
all workers and spreads the risks over young
and old. Under a dual system, such as the
Clark amendment would create, private COM
panies would keep the good risks and fire older
workers for the government to care for Thus,
the government system would suffer going and
coming.
The proposed amendment also would create
an impossible administrative problem. An army
of inspectors would be needed to examine
private systems to see they conformed to Fed
eral standards and to keep track of workers
going to and from both systems. The proposal
also is of doubtful constitutionalty.
There is only one safe thing for the House
to do with this amendment That is to kill it.

ITALY'S AFRICAN AFFAIR

THE very old and somewhat out-of-date
empire of Abyssinia is about to fight with
streamlined, modernized Italy, and if the
sports fraternity were making book on the
affair the odds would be at least 10 to l. with
practically no takers.
Yet the long shot does have way of gal
Looping home, occasionally, and if the views of
an anonymous military expert writing in the
London Spectator recently are correct, Italy
stands very broad chance of coming an in
glorious cropper in the fighting in Africa.
This writer makes the point that Abyssinia
is apt to be an easy place to get into, but
hard one to get out of. The Italian army,
he says, ought to be able to drive its way into
Adds Ababa, Abyssinian capital without
trouble; once there, however, its troubles would
begin.
All the Abyssinians need to do, he con-
tinues, is to retreat. To catch and defeat
them the Italians would have to cross rugged,
mountainous country larger than Morocco
and it took most of Frances great colonial
army many years to make the Moroccans
knuckle under.
Meanwhile, Italian communications would
be in danger, and the upshot of it all might
well be the starvation and slow diSintegra-
ton of the entire Italian expeditionary force.
AL this is interesting chiefly as a reminder
that wars are seldom fought according to the
textbooks. On paper, a modernized and we'll
disciplined army like that of Mussolini's should
have no trouble at all with a horde of semi
savage levieS such as Halle Selassie can muster.
In actual fact, such encounters often turn out
differently
Augustus Caesar of Rome discovered this
1900 years ago. when Varus got the flower of
the Roman army entangled in the Teutoberger
forest in Germany where the barbaric tribes
men annihilated it. Cortez nearly met the
same fate in his first drive at the Aztec en-
pire.
The British regulars were no match for
the Pennsylvania Indians when Braddock was
trapped near Fl. Duquesne. The crack cavalry
regiment of the United States Army was over
whelmed when the plains Indians got it in a
blind alley at the Little Big Horn.
You could Gull column or so of similar
instances from the military histories, but the
examples that have been given so far are
enough to make the point-which is that
making war on a horde of poorly equipped
barbarans is much riskier business than it
appears OH the surface.
Mussolini's troopers will need all the good
generalship and the good luck they can COM
mand, if the African campaign is to be the
triumphal procession it is expected to be.

RACE PREJUDICE

THIS Lieut.. Col Alfred Dreyfus of France,
= who died just the other day, will have
about as odd a niche in the history books as
any man that ever lived.
1t was Dreyfus unhappy fate to be a living
testimonial to the fact that when men give
way to prejudice they can lose all resemblance
to rational beings. Not in all the innumerable
years of human stupidity and meanness has
there been more clear-cut display of the
sheer dumbneSs of race prejudice than was
evinced in his case.
Consider his career for a moment He was
a young officer on the general staff of the
French army: a quiet, talented man, who
finished ninth in class of 81 in the war COL
lege, minded his own business and worked in
duStriously at mis- chosen calling. Then, out
of a clear sky. he was assaled by the worst
charge that can be brought against soldier
treason.
From the very beginning the case against
him was f1imsy. The evidence stank to high
heaven 1t was obvious that the army high
command was proceeding against him largely
he had been convicted and sent to Devils
Island that the fimsiness of the accusation
was too apparent for any thinking man to
miss.
Yet the French people managed to get
themselves so wrought up over the case that
only the bravest dared suggest that Dreyfus
ha0 been wrongly convicted Men were driven
out of public life for taking his part. An army
officer who discovered proofs Of his innocence
was exiled to the desert.
Eventually the swindle became too appar-
ent to overlook. Dreyfus was recalled and
given a new trial-and convicted again. At
last it took a pardon by the president of the
republic to bring him back to freedom, and
even after that it took extended court hear
ings to remove the last blot from his record.
What happened to Dreyfus himself no
longer matters very much. The man is dead,
and whatever he may have known of diSap-
pointment, of bitterness of sheer heart-sick-
ness, is gone forever. The thing that is worth
bordering about is what happened to his fell
low citizens, to make them go insane.
The answer to that is very simple. They
gave way to race prejudice, and race prejudice
being an utterly nonsenSical thing from the
start, blinded them to all considerations of
truth and justice, just as it always does. On
Dreyfus' unlucky person it raised warning
monument for all ages to note.
1t would not hurt us bit to keep the Drey-
fus case in mind Here, once and for all, the
utter insanity Of surrender to race prejudice
is recorded in terms of injustice and tragedy.

FOLLY OF A FASCIST

T UIGI PIRANDELLO, famous Italian dra-
Il matlst, came to America recently en-
route to Hollywood to do some work with the
films. He had been expected to arrive on the
French liner Normandie. but when the ship
docked Pirandello was not aboard: and it be-
came known that Mussolini. displeased at the
sight of an italian travelling under the French
flag had given him a strong hint to the effect
that Italy also has transatlantic steamers and
that he would be wise to do his voyaging on
them. Pirandello, evidently, took the hint.
Now this is the sort of thing that leaders
of all nations are trying to do; and it seems.
somehow, to be just little bit silly.
Transportation systems. one would suppose.
ought TO exist for the convenience of travellers.
Making the traveller exist for the convenience
OF the transportation system is putting the
cart about three miles ahead Of the horse.
