1t may sound strange to say
that we do not think enough Of
the dead on Armistice Day; but
we do not, and the proof OF 1t Is
to be seen in the great fleets ana
armies which are symbols OF the
worlds slow but steady march TO-
ward a new war. -,
More than eight and one-ha!I
million young men went TO the!r
deaths in the World war. They
supposed. all of them, that they
were fighting to make the word
somehow a better place to live in;
they hoped, and were told so to
hope by the men who sent them
out to die, that through the sac
rifce Of their own lives it was go
ing to be possible to devise some
sort of world order in which wars
could hereafter be avoided.
No one needs to look around
the world very long today to see
how tragically that hope has been
dashed.
In Africa the fighting is on.
Black men and white men expose
their bodies to the fiendishly in
genious devices which the modern
world has invented for its spreeS
of mass murder.
The thunder of guns, the whine
of approaching shells, the stacca-
to rat-tat of machine guns-those
noises that we hoped had been
stilled forever on Nov. IL, 1915
are sounding again, and the price
of their sounding is the same as 1t
was before.

pass by: all the soldiers who have
fought in all our wars would not
equal them in number. There IS
no way Of making our magma
tions comprehend what tremen-
dous army the army of World war
dead really is.
Nor is there, either, any way Of
comprehending just how much un-
believable human suffering that
war cost. The physical pain SUI
fered by the fighting men, the
heart-crushing anguish suffered b.
those they left behind, the long
and pitiful misery visited upon
Heaven knows how many millions
of children whose homes were
broken by the war, whose bodies
were stunted by famine, whose
lives were ruined by war-boln
chaos-there simply is not any
way of totaling all that agony.
But we need to think about K,
on Armistice Day above all other
days. Until we actually do some
thing in the way Of making this
a warless world, all that suffering
and loss has gone for nothing-d
mockery Of every hope humanity
ever had.
Until we find thu courage to
make that promise Of a lasting
peace and a better world some
thing more than an empty phrase,
we must be recorded as the igno-
blest Of all the earth's generations
"a generation condemned by
eight and one-half million dead
men!

Elsewhere the fighting has not
started-yet. But Japanese troops
watch the marshes Of Manchukuo,
the Soviet troops drill in the wind
swept towns opposite them. Ger
many huns with busy factories
turning out planes, tanks, guns,
warships and all the other para
phernalia of slauhter.
France keeps an army watchful
behind the greatest chain OF forts
the world has ever seen. England s
gray-walled sea dogs ride the Med
iterranean, waiting for the fate
full signal.
In a dozen other countries, men
march and drill and prepare 10"
the day; and our own country
spends huge sums to get its fleet
and its fighting planes ready.
That. one hardly needs to say,
is not a picture of a world thar
expects to remain at peace. 1t IS
a sorry and tragic commentary on
the high hopes that we held that
first Almistice Day; and it is an
unspeakably cruel betrayal Of the
phrases with which more than
EIGHT million men were led to die.
Perhaps if we could see all
those EIGHT million we would be so
shocked, so profoundly moved in
the very bottom of our hearts,
that we would have the courage
to redeem our forgotten pledge to
them.
We would have to watch for a
long, long time to see their ranks

LAWS IDEALS MOCKED BY BAD
EXAMPLES

conscientious man can make hne

no said that some of the Overtones of his
,,,ofassion won't give him headache now
and then.
Fine phrases about the lawyers sacred
dn+v n the public may ring through the
corridors of law schools and the con'eh-
ton halls of bar associations, but down III
the cockpit in front of the judges bench II
takes a pretty good man to decide Jus'
when where, and how all these fine WORDS
apply.
Some 100 young attorneys were admit
ted TO the bar in New York the other day.
and Justice Francis Martin took advantage
of the occasion to warn them OF their du-
ties and responsibilities.
"The type of lawyer who uses his aolIltF
to enable the dangerous criminal to escape
the law or to take advantage OF an oppo-
nent is an enemy of the legal profession
and of his government" said the justice.
"Your admission to the bar is not license
to exploit the public.
"You start at time of unrest and I'M
certainty and COmmunistlc radlcalsm'
when it is more necessary than ever to sup
port the Constitution
Now it Just happened that day or SO
before this elevating homily was delivered,
the Department of Justice revealed that
lawyers for some of our leading gangsterS
are attacking the federal kidnapping and
firearms registration acts on the ground
that they are unconstitutional.
A precious group of distinguished citi-
zens is represented in this action, including
the kidnapers of June Robes and Charles
Urschel The best-known of the bunch is
Harvey Bailey.
Their lawyers will presently tell the SUI
preme court that the new federal laws un-
der which these snatch artists were put
away are unconstitutional; and the odd
part about it is that their plea will be very
like the one successfully raised against the
NRA.
This federal kidnapping statute is based
upon the power of the government to
regulate Interstate commercials was the
NRA. The court held last summer that the
NRA constituted an undue extension of
this power. The lawyers for Bailey and
his cohorts say the same thing about the
kidnapping law
And somehow this assault on the kid
mapping law has an odd sound when placed
beside the remarks of Justice Martin.
Here we have a law under which the
Department of Justice has solved 55 kid,
napings, broken up some of the worst
gangs in the country, sent % criminals tt
prison, and landed 25 more in jail to await
trial.
Would the justice tell his Hedging law
yers that an assault on this law comes un
der the heading of enabling dangerou
criminals to escape the law" or of "sup
porting the Constitution at time of unres
and uncertainty?

ONE THING AND ANOTHER

The peace and the safety OF
mankind demand that Museum
be chased out of Ethiopia, that he
be allowed to keep no more OF
that sail than he can put in his

As | see it, all that the Eth

the strategy planned by Mussolini,
and all that Mussolini has to do
to get onto the maneuvers worked

LETTING THE RICH PAY

crooL;pg over the radio on Sunday, the Dean OF
tho University of Buffalo School of Business Adj
ministration stuck another pin IN granolose SNARE
the-wealth' programs. Analysing the 1881 income
tax returns. he pointed out that even II the gov
eminent had seized for that year all income IN eN-
cess Of $4,000 for every individual 1t would nave
oot lust S4 900 900 O0O If it had distributed TINS
amount evenly among the 100000 income re-
ceivers of the country, it would have meant only
81 90 q year. or 50 a week extra, for each one.
The calculation which any can check for
himself, points to the basic fallacy of so many OF
the fashionable reform schemes-the assumption
that securing better living conditions for the peo-
ME as whole is primarily problem of distnbr-
ton. Better distribution is emnently desirable but
the problem of greatly increasing our total output
Of goods and services remains of far greater int
portance.
Dean Epstein's calculation has more than an
academic application. When complaints are made
about taxes, demagogues dismiss such complaints
with the innuendo that they come only from the
rich When questions raised about how the
federal deficit might be bridged, they again sug-
gest glibly that ''the rich" pay it. Their use
of the terms is conveniently vague. If it includes
those with less than $4,000 incomes they should De
candid enough to say 50. If they mean only MIL
lionaires,' OF persons with incomes in excess OF
$4,000 year. then it can be shown that the en-
tire seizure of such incomes for 1881 would have
melted the government only ,3OO,OOO,OOo-oi
about sixth of the estimated federal expenditure;
for the current fiscal year and hardly more imam
third Of the current estimated deficit. II they e>
tend their definition of the rich down to those WIZ
incomes over $4,000, the amount raised by Sei|ui'
of all income in excess of that, as we nave see''
would have paid for only half the current eApe't
ditures of the federal government alone mere

One reason the conduct Of
American courts has placed such
a severe strain on the respect and
the confidence Of our people is
that so many Of our lawyers are
mental prostitutes. Anybody can
use their brains for any purpose
for a dollar. That condition will
never improve until bar associa-
tons adopt the policy and prac-
tice of relentlessly purging their
ranks and the courts Of unfit, un-

eliminate a large percentage of

Some Secrets Kept

The same thing is true when maneuvers are held on the exact ground where fighting may take place later, as on the French Ger man border or the Polish Russian frontier, Foreign observers don't see anything that is really impor- tant or that would make the host country look bad.
 For instance, before the World War there were details of con- struction of the famous French 75s which any other country would have been glad to get. But no for eigner ever got a good look at tneir construction before the war broke. No foreigner has seen any, thing important of the new French border forts.
 The custom of inviting foreigners to see maneuvers dates back to Prussian kings, who used to send officers to keep in touch with the troops of "my cousin, the king of France" in friendly spirit. Such were especially acceptable, because they made nice hostages in case things didn't jell. The custom de- veloped on a mutual basis and now all countries do 1t.
 There isn't nearly so mulch con- ccaling of secret plans in shaving b-ush handles as you might guess from the movies, but of course there is lot of friendly trying-to- outguess- the -other-fellow on what is the real meaning of what has been shown.

C.L.U. Secretary
 Denies Opposition
Local Labor Unions Msrepresented Writes Brodeur,
 Contradicting Speeches Made at Political Outing

Mayor Frank Hayes and his run ningmates on the democratic city ticket are not being opposed by the local organized labor; the To- cal labor unions are being mis- represented by persons unofficial ly speaking and announcing en- dorsements only in their own per- sonal capacity-this was the gist of a statement issued to-day by Henry l.. Brodeur, recording secre- tary of the Waterbury Central La
 bor Union.
 Secretary Brodeur's statement
 was in the form of letter to the
 Editor of he Democrat. The
 statement of MT. Brodeur is be-
 lieved to have been brought about
 as result of statements issued by John Fitzgerald, president of the Central Labor Union, and James Quinn, vice president of the same group. They made state ments or were credited with hav- ing done so in the American and Republican MT. Brodeur makes
 it plain that they speak for them selves and not for the organized
 labor as a whole in Waterbury. His letter follows
 Statement Statements, which have ap- peared in the Republican and American to the effect that l the organized labor movement in Waterbury is opposed to the administration now in off, flee, are so completely at vari- ance with the truth that I am obliged to correct them.

Several changes in train sched- ules on the New Haven road af- fecting Waterbury were announced today. The adjustment in the schedule becomes effective next Sunday and is more necessary be- cause of the shift back from day light saving to standard time.
