the incarnation of q political power,
but that of q spiritual power-Spir-
itual and civilizing. That does not
mean that the concentration Of q
strong political power in q centralized
state would be useless. It simply
means that q state, however strong,
centralized and authoritatively gov
erned, cannot Justly be termed an
empire" if the expression Is under
stood in its historical sense.
Two Distinct Questions.
A distinction must be made between
two different questions: Austria's eco
nomic vitality and her political vital
ity,' which for the last two years has
been particularly to the fore. When
the economic conditions of the coun-
try are studied, the conclusion must
be reached that Austria is economi-
cally feasible If the only reasonable
policy is pursued with the same energy
as in the past.
As for the second question, the
political feasibility of Austria, 1t Is
evident that foreigners will show in
terest, confidence and sympathy for
my country as long as the convic-
ton prevails that order and tran
quillity are effectively assured there,
and that Austria-except in case of
possible political catastrophe-is in
a condition to defend herself by her
own means.
Factors I'm Distress.
What were, fundamentally, the two
great revolutionary waves which,
after the collapse Of the dual mon
archy, further increased Austria's dis
tress? On the one hand, the attempt
to establish proletarian dictatorship
in Austria; and, on the other, an at
tempted overthrow, an even more
complete destruction of the state, an
attempt originating among extreme
nationalist elements who in imagina-
ton have long ago suppressed Austria
as an Independent country.
This nationalist radicalism, which
would always encounter an obstacle
in the existence of Austria, has al
ready led to restriction of the in
fiuence of German culture. 1t was
this dismembering Of the old Austria
which created millions of Germans
In foreign lands"
On this question can only re-
peat what has already been declared
many times, notably by Dollfuss: We
must put our own house in order;
we have no quarrel with any other
state whatever, and wish to be left
In peace. We are against nobody,
and more particularly we are not
against Germany; but we are funda-
mentally and unreservedly for Q free
and independent Austria.

obvious advantages to Britain Of
American return to Europe are re-
sponsible for the growing belief that
what is desirable must be possible
and, In fact, probable.
English Appeals Likely.
In any event the debate is now to
be resumed. From England we are
likely to hear many appeals during
the next few months and perhaps
years. Within our own frontiers there
is already growing fresh drive for
the collective system, which means
membership in the League. Tnat
membership, too, could only be eI-
fective as it were accompanied py
that partnership between the two
English-speaking worlds which STAN
ley Baldwin advocates. As to the
likelihood Of any change in American
attitude, that is open to doubt, nut
Americans are likely to be surprised
once more by the tenacity with which
their British friends cling to q con-
ception as alluring as it Is WITHOUT
apparent foundation.
Meantime, and that is the point
set out to emphasize, British policy
at Geneva Is only explicable as last
desperate stand to save Geneva from
the well-nigh fatal disaster threat
ening from the Italian side. Doubt
less Baldwin now recognizes 1t would
have been wiser to take advantage OF
Mr.. Stimson's attempts at collabo-
ration over the Manchurian af1alrr
but that is water gone over the dam
now. What remains is to try to save
the League as the one possible bridge
between the two Anglo-Saxon coun-
tries and that, believe, explains the
otherwise inexplicable course OF Eden
at Geneva and his recent promotion
to represent the new cabinet at the
League. ...,---a..-

dinarily are recognized as natural.
What Austria asks Is that Europe's
interest in her should not only be
manifested platonically, but also in q
practical fashion by the establish
ment of satisfactory economic rela-
tions.
Finally, Austria asks that those
same natural principles Of interna-
tional law which she respects unre-
servedly as regards all other countries
should be equally respected as regards
her. Such is the real meaning,
summed up in very simple for
mula, of the conventions which have
been recently concluded or are still
under discussion.
Policy ought to be pre-eminently a
matter of considered judgment. In
general, policy is always matter OF
intelligence. He who would create a
policy out of sentimental arguments
helps to swell the ranks of political
romantics, who do not belong to our
time. But If one judges things solely
from the spiritual point Of view, one
cannot but recognize that Austria to-
day Is an indisputable necessity, and
that this institution ought to be
defended at all costs.
Pursues Great IDEAL
A study Of the Austrian problem
shows that one can 60 back to the
year 1S48 and find just as good an
argument in favor Of Austria as
against it. There was at this time, as
there is today, struggle for and
against the nation. And, fundamen-
tally, the Austrian question goes back
to an even more distant epoch. In
the course of centuries, at critical
moments of European history, the
Austrian problem has always played q
preponderant role.
Those who have not directly studied
the Austrian spirit will have difficulty
In realizing that in the most decisive
questions little Austria nomically
weakened and politically straitened in
her narrow frontiers-is still pursu-
ing the same great ideal as did the
old Austrian Empire, its predecessor,
which still is present in our memories.
And, If one goes back still further in
history, the same great ideal as that
of the Holy Roman Empire, Of which
Austria was once the standard
bearer.
There was q time when Western
civilization and the Austrian ideal
were synonymous ideas. Austria and
its capital appeared then as the heart
and head of the Holy Roman Empire,
and it was always the Holy Empire
which-at least on the spiritual plane
represented the West drawing its
principal strength from Austria.
The year 1918 brought q complete

MY DEAR MR.. PRESIDENT:
mn When a private citizen
wv writes an open letter to the
4 n President ne Is nearly al
ways seeking some personal benefit,
material or psychological, This letter
has no such objective. am not
writing in my own interest.
This is not the first letter TO you
that has borne my signature. In
October, 1888, there was sent to you
a letter signed by A economists and
practical experts on money. 1t was a
letter urging you to preserve this
country's monetary standard and
warning You of the dangers Of infla-
ton. The group signing that letter
included many, though hot all. of the
leading experts on money and ex-
change in all America. In an accom-
panying letter we very respectfully
asked you to make that letter public.
But it never was. A while later there
was made public q letter from five
nttle-known instructors Of subordi-
nate rank in one college. This letter
indorsed the Governments money
policy.
A President of this country is inev-
itably surrounded by politicians. They
create around him q thick mist Of
mis;nformation, propaganda and adu-
lation which separates him from the
views Of millions of citizens. The
thousands who write you are nearly
all partisan admirers, frequently ben
eficiaries of governmental action.
Their letters are less than worthless,
for they are actually misleading.
CIeveland's Policy Cited.
Thus a President Is sometimes in
ignorance of the real feelings of his
people and frequently uninformed as
to the judgment of the people re-
garding his conduct. You have studied
the history of other Presidents, and
you must have been impressed by the
number who never knew until too late.
Some Presidents never understood
how their policies were regarded until
the Supreme Court got around to
them and others never knew where
they stood until a second election.
President Harding went to his death
without knowing what the people
thought of his administration. Some
Presidents refused to rely on the judg-
ment of partisan advisers but sought
information from every available
source and then acted without refer
ence to politics or politicians. Cleve-
land was conspicuous among these,
and today he is held to have been
one of Americas greatest men.
There are some reliable avenues OF
information and sources Of advice
available to q President in our time.
One is the editorial judgment OF the
reputable newspapers. Another is the
Judgment of the academic economists.
The editors of our great papers, along
with the economists, happen to be
the best informed, most impartial and
most courageous judges of economic
policy in the country. They are not
infallible, of course, and in rare cases
they are prejudiced by their partisan
or financial connections. But not the
majority. Both these groups are so
far superior in economic wisdom to

Italy Would Become VaSSal.
Undoubtedly Germany would estab-
lish hegemony in the Danubian area.
Austria would be absorbed, Czechoslo-
vakia divided between German and
Hungarian masters, the Balkan states
would become economically and po-
Iitically associated with the Germans
at least temporarily. Italy would
sink to the level of vassal state,
Unless she presently threw on her
German yoke. But these things the
British see are likely to happen any
way. They could be prevented only If
Italy could be relied upon, and Italy
cannot be relied upon save at a price
which Is likely to grow as Italian sup
port becomes more and more neces-
eary.
In q word, there Is not today any
solid basis for any collective system

established, among other things, to

Our plain duty to proDtde for that

Congress.
AS long step toward that security,
Congress the past week placed stamp
Of approval upon far-reaching and
many-sided social program such as no
nation ever before attempted to achieve
in q single gesture. In brief, it falls
into three major divisions:
ID Pensions for the aged and
blind.
CD Provisions for child welfare.
(3) Provision for unemployment
insurance.
Whether the entire program, or any
single feature of it, will prove a sue
cess has been subject of intense con-
troversy, not only during the past few
weeks of congressional consideration,
but during past years. Most debat-
able of the programs issues has been
the most complex-that of unemploy-
ment insurance. With its dual objec-
tive of extending relief to the unem-
ployed and of encouraging efforts to
stabilize industry, the history of un-
employment insurance throughout the
world has been marked by controversy
and doubt, some success and some
failure.
Its initial stage in virtually all coun-
tries has been one of voluntary effort,
originating usually in a system of out
of-work benefits administered through
trade unionsm. In Great Britain, for
instance, the labor unions and friendly
societies were paying such benefits as
early as the middle of the last century.
Supported entirely by the workers,
however, such systems afforded a small
degree OF relief.

regarded as a piece of personal
property by their hostess, and this
is the reason for their retirement
into indifference. This lad doesn't
want to be tied down to you. II
you want dependability and a
serious attitude, look for a more
mature person.
Dear Jane JORDAN am young
girl of q engaged to fellow who
lives several miles from my home
town. I see him every other week
end. Re insists that I have no dates
in between times. What should
do? BETTY.
Answer-It depends upon how
much you want him. If your wish
to please him is sufficient to COM
pensate for a dull time between
visits, give up other dates. OF
course I think your frances view
point is provincial, but 1 don't see
how you can change it without
considerable grief to yourself.
Point out to him that you can't
insure the permanency Of love by
building a fence around it. If you
trust him with other friends,
surely he can trust you. Try to
come to an understanding mu-
tually satisfying to both of you.

to see me. He brings his friends

when his friends want to go home.
Still he says he loves me.

him have his friends to run around
with.
Answer You do not say
whether you are divorced. l hope
you are, for it is one of the first
rules of love to finish an old af-
fair before you take up new one.
How do you know that your in
terest in this lad is genuine? You
rlay be using him as a means of
convincing your husband that you
still are attractive, whether he
thinks so or not. Your boy friends
immaturity gives you chance to
feel superior by contrast, whereas
an older man makes you painfully
conscious of inequality. These bad
reasons for a love choice lead to
the sort Of disSatiSfactionS which
you mention.
The boy is too young. 1t is not
so much his chronological years
as his emotional development
which makes him unsuitable. His
behavior indicates that he is still
imbued with the gang spirit of
childhood and that his boy friends
are more important than his girl
friends Every boy goes through
this phase on his way to maturity.

time they are 20. Your friend is

satisfying to you who have given
teamwork a trial and failed at it.
Why can't you enjoy the boy for
the youth and gayety he brings
into our life without trying to pin
him down to regularity? When he
says he loves you he is only saying
what he thinks you want to hear.
He doesn't know the meaning of
the word. Men are constantly ir-
ritated by the possessiveness of
