THE NEW DEAL
IN WASHINGTON
by RODNEY BUTCHER

There is a heavy body OF opin-
ION, however, which holds that
the British Empire has been
threatened with. disruption and
that anything which tends to
weaken the British Empire is all
to the bad for the United States
as we'll as for the rest of the
world and the bclcaguered inStitu-
ton of democracy.
Insiders of international politics,
although they may Sympathizc
with Edward and believe Stanley
Baldwin made a mistake in bring
ing the Simpson issue TO a head
when it might have been STAYED
Off say that in addition to the
war danger factor, Baldwin knows
some things about the empire
which are not commonly realized
over here.
CONFIDENTIAL reports say
~ some of the dominions are
growing more doubtful about the
value of the thin ties which hold
them together with Britain, cspe-
cially since England bowed TO the
fact Of Italian aggression in
Ethiopia and again to alleged Ger
manhattan Intervention in Spain.
If these reports are true, it is
obvious that the constitutional ex-
plosion over the kings proposed
marriage, with its repercussions
through the seven seas, came at
the worst possible time.
At the League of Nations ses-
sion where the question of recog-
MIXING Ethiopia as league men,
Der came UP, representatives OF
New Zealand, Canada, South At
RIGA, and the Irish Free State pro-
tested strongly the British position
that Ethiopia shouldn't be adj
United.
The incident was said to be
significant OF the fact that some
dominions, at least, are no longer
as sure as they once were of Brit
ish ability to provide naval and
military help in time Of war :

WRITE IT RIGHT!

In his Fountain Inn Tribune, in which inciden-
tally we wish to protest that he writes too seldom
in these busy days. Robert CULLEN discusses the
use of the ugly "Xmas'' and declares that why
Christians themselves give their support to a cam.
paign to belttle their religion remains mystery"
Mr.. QuiIlen objects and rightly to the substitu'
ton Of 'X'' or Of anything else for the name OF
Christ
"christian' people" he says, "are being tricked
GU. of their religion yet they unwttingly and in,
noeently and carelessly give aid to the sinister
forces that work increasingly to make their sacred
day ridiculous."-Greenyille Is. c. Piedmont. '.

Rural SchOOlma'ams

7 F THERE is any class of real workers
that can be singled out as never having

rural schools.
After spending year and often two
or more years in special preparatory work
they get employment seven, eight or at
the most nine months of the year at sal
aries which would be an insult to wait
ress or shopgirl. They must be well dress,
ed although often their duties involve jan
itoring Their decorum must be that OF a
saint but if their actions are not subjects
of conversation, their supposed thoughts
may be.
They are expected to discipline anl
educate children of all sizes, ages and abil-
tiles, usually with inadequate and anti
quated equipment, arising early to prepare
work for sundry classes and get fires 60
ing in winter and leaving the building to
correct papers by lamplight at home, only
after the last after-school pupil has un-
willingly absorbed the days assignment.
Editing a newspaper has it's shortcom-
ings but we have never envied the teacher

local men had selling ads at 81 each and the
comparative ease with which an outsider
sold the same size ads in a directory Of a
neighbor town at 81 per, the book having
about half the circulation.
We are reminded of the persons who
come through here periodically selling
church directory cards, hotel cards and
similar advertising stunts, leaving an order
with the local printer for from 40 to 100
cards at cost of 81 to SIP and departing
with $50 to $100 profit from small ads sold
for 81 to $40 each. The printer could eli
inmate the outsider, sell the ads at 81 each
and make handsome proft-but he would
find no takers.
Merchants will tell you that house to
house peddler can sell inferior merchandise
for more than quality goods can be bought
for in local stores. It's peculiar sidelight
on human nature that what the outsider Of
fers seems to have more value than the loca
product. Perhaps it's because he asks stiff
price which seems to enhance the value OF
his wares.

POstOffice Hitch-hikerS

7 ARPED ON for years by newspaper
ri editors, the franking privilege of con-
gressmen still is royalty abused in
the interests of reelection to offices for
which they are already well paid. The US
ual procedure is to send out reprints from
the congressional record sometimes OF
speeches actually made in the halls of con-
gress but more often merely never uttered
remarks" admitted to the record with the
undisguised intention of using them to i'm
press the voters back home.
Congressman Lundeen varies the prac-
tice this week in sending out mimeograph-
ed "press release" instead of the customary
pages from the record. In the release he
deals not with national problems by any
stretch of the imagination but party pro-
blem. The release is devoted exclusively
to an opinion of Mr.. Lundeen, his disappoint-
ment at the decision of the Farmer-Labo1
party against putting national ticket in
the field.
This is just one example of persistent
fragrant cases of postoffice department
hitch-hiking at the expense of taxpayers.

Regular Fellow

VvyORKING FOR the government was all
M right when that was all there was to
" do but fellow has to get regular
job to really get ahead. This remark was
made last week by young man who has
served ably in the administration of relief
and leaves the service now to take better
job.
He has been disgusted frequently with
boondoggling fellow employees. He has fun
ed inwardly at scenes of able-bodied shovel
leaners He has had his fill of clock watchers
and fellows who feel the government owes
them living
He came through CWA, PWA, ERA,
and WPA and has consistently had an eye
out for better job which in his estimation
still is one involving more work as well as
more pay. Need we add that he is a regular
fellow?

Envy the Board?

WYE SOMETIMES wonder what prompts
M persons to file for election to posi-
w tions on the school board, the city
council and similar jobs where the salary
is nil or negligible, the hours of work long
and tedious and the chances of kicks far
exceed the opportunities for commentator
Consider for example the hours which
the school board will of necessity spend to-
ward satisfactorily replacing the school
building recently destroyed by fire. Al
ready it has the suggestion that gymna-
sium of sufficient size to accommodate bas-
etball tournaments be included in the plans
and that the present gymnasium-audltor-
ium be rebuilt for other purposes. There
is also some sentiment for a Junior college
which would necessitate a larger building
than might otherwise be planned. The build
ing will not be acceptable to others unless
it contains a swimming pool.
Redwood Falls is steadily growing and
it is we'll to anticipate future needs and pre-
pare for them. 1t would be folly to con-
struct a building barely adequate for to-
day that is sure to be crowded in few
years. Yet it is probable that the board
will have advice which, boiled down, will
amount to that To do so would be false
economy for the taxpayer who, having just
finished paying for the old building, is go
ing to watch with interest the preparation
of plans for the new. He knows well that
despite insurance money and PWA help, he
will have prominent role in the financing
scheme.
The board has long hours of work ahead.
1t will get plenty of ideas, good, bad and
Indifferent. It will find as other boards have
found, paraphrasing Lincoln, you can please
all the people some of the time, some of
the people all the time, but you can't please
all the peOple all of the time

Rating: Poor
\ EDWOOD and Renville

n EDWOOD and Renville counties, for
X some reason, consistently rate bad
4 ly in statistics on automobile accident
fatalities compiled periodically by the Min
nesota Public Safety committee.
With five months of 1896 in present
ratings, Renville county occupies last posi-
tion among 33 counties in the state hav-
ing over 10000 population while Redwood
county is twenty-fifth. Redwood had two
car accident deaths up to June l while Rem
vile county had four. The average rate for
the group is 179, but Redwoods rating is
1913 and Renville's 40.5. These figures re-
present doubling exactly of fatalities in
the two counties in the same months last
year while the entire state had a one per
cent increase.
Ever since the committee began it's rat
ing system, the two counties have with
alarming frequency been at or near the bot
tom of the stack. The fault hardly could
be the condition of our highways, they are
well above the average and generally not
overcrowded. It would be impossible to es-
tablish that our drivers are inferior or more
careless or that our cars are in poorer con-
dition.
1t may be that enforcement of traffic
laws here has fallen behind that of other
sections. If that is the case the locating of
two highway patrolmen in this territory
should have the encouragement and support
not only of officials but of the general pub
lie in helping raise this community from the
danger zone stigma on traffic maps.
