THE TRAITOR
By WICKEy WAMBOLDT

he kept his head and his temper,
and been patient and long-suffer-
ing, there would have been no
break in the high standing of his
line--for he came from proml-
nent family, and his descendants
were prominent. Had Arnold stood
the gaff, he would eventually have
come into his own.
A third point: The traitorous
conduct of Arnold can we'll re-
mind us that his offense against
the country was as nothing COM
pared to the operations of some
of our peacetime traitors. Actual
ly, Arnold did the nation no
harm. He was stopped before he
accomplished anything. But all
over this nation there are peace
time traitors who have sold out
their communities, body and
britches, collected the money
still have tor perhaps have lost
it-and still walk about in those
communities, heads UP, free, and,
believe it or not, respected.
And these peacetime traitors
had not the excuse that Arnold
had. They were not undervalued.
,phey were not mistreated. They
were given places of high honor.
They were trusted and esteemed.
They were able to dry-clean their
communities, to rob the aged, the
widows and the orphans, to drive
men and women to death through
despair, because of the very con-
fidence the citizenry had placed
in them and the power they had
given them. ..,.... -. ..,.-

was so tiny compared with the

A steel worker, lOSC HIS 1ooIihS $3.50
working OH the San Franciseo-Oakland
Bay bridge the other day, and plunged loo
feet to his death. 1t was the 18th fatality
recorded during construction of the bridge
Away back in the days of ancient 10
mans it was the custom to start every Dig
construction job witha human sacrifice. a
slave would be killed and his body sealed
into a crypt beneath the cornerstone. Every
great building, bridge, aqueduct, or monu-
ment was thus, in way, a sort OF memoir
ial to a nameless person who had given his
life that the job might be finished.
We do the same sort of thing nowadays
but we don't do it Intentionally.
Il would be hard to find record of any
large-scale construction job in this country
which has been carried through without
taking the life of some workman. This lsn {
due to carelessness or slackness on the part
of the engineers and foremen; construc-
tioniwork is just naturally dangerous, and
the mere law of averages decrease that it
has to take life every so often.
This is worth remembering. We like to
call ourselves the greatest builders since
the DAYS of Caesars, and we probably de-
serve the title; but we should never forget
the price that has to be paid for this
achievement by. the .unsung workers who
take danger as part of the job. }. ,-
These men are our national heroes, in
very real sense. Whenever there is a hard,
dangerous, exacting job to be done, they
come staggering up, in oyeralis and leat tn
err gloves, and take it on.ssE ..,.s,2...is..:i
Whether we are bridging San Francisco
Bay or putting a railroad out across the
Florida Keys or damnaing western river
or thrusting 50-story skyscraper toward
the clouds, we can always find men to ac-
cept the risks and put over the job. 2,
Think what we owe to them! They took
our squsre-riggers around Cape Horn;
they manned the hard-case ranks OF the
great lumber industry they built our cities
and harnessed our steams and mined our
minerals; they smelted our ores and herd
ed our cattle and established our fisheries
ignoring danger and hardship, rolling up
a casualty list that would make the battle
of Gettysburg look like summer picnic
and doing it all without benefit OF brass
bands, medals, orr newspaper . photo
graphers. .,, r
The ordinary human animal, In othel
words, is pretty plueky sort: o fchap. 1t Is
not only on the battlefield that he proves
his mettle. That perhaps, is the least Oh
his achievements No job is too tough fol
him, no danger too great. - ~: :. i.
Beyond all our inventive, genius, our r5 OF;
ganizing skill, and our gift for planning
