VAVE you ever seen the little
museum at Hillcrest?
It is among the most dis
u Il tinctive museums in Wash
ington. Built by childish hands out
of the simple things that engage the
minds and hearts Of children. it has
a quality that rarely is to be found be-
hind that austere sound-"museum. "
Warm and vibrantly alive, invested
with the spirit of its creators, it in
vites inspection in terms of be-
guiling simplicity.
Happiness is not one of the ordi-
nary connotations of the word ''mu-
scum" The little museum at Hill
crest-officially the Washington City
Orphan Asylum, on Nebraska avenue
offers happiness as one of its most
impressive qualities.
One senses it in a first brief glance
over the large, airy room. Sunshine
filters through orange -colored curtains
hung at its many windows. Gay voices
and the joyous laughter of young girls
echo against the soft gray walls-walls
which throw into relief the smiling

SOMETHING TO BEWARE OF

The people must become actively imbued with
the idea of cooperative society," and receptive OF
the general purpose and possibilities of co-opera-
tive commonwealth, said Secretary of Agriculture
Henry A Wallace in his book recently published.
Must we, indeed? And why?
The signal failure of the AAA to accomplish
anything of lasting good, although it did fix in the
minds of many people the idea that it is govern
ment's business to help them out of any hole they
may happen to get into, seems to have convinced
Secretary Wallace that people cannot very success
fully be compelled to cooperate against their Wills
And so he says we must become imbued with the
idea of the cooperative commonwealth, before ne
or others may be able to put it over on us.
But why should we have this idea of co-opera'
tive commonwealth?
We have nothing except discredited theory TO
support the idea it would be good thing.
There is no evidence, except the discredlted re-
ports of what it is alleged by its sponsors to have
accomplished in Russia, that it can accomplish any
thing good for US here.
Cooperation is certainly good thing where I'M
dertaken by harmonious groups of people in the
true spirit of cooperation.
But the sort of colectivism which would be put
over on US by Mr.. Wallace, under the guise of a
cooperative commonwealth, is something of which
we want to beware-Rock Hill, S. c., Herald.

NEWSPAPERS OPINIONS
ROME AND THE NEW DEAL

You know Rome had a New Deal once, but only
once She tried nearly every policy which we are
irving out and it ruined the great Roman Empire
Our New Deal, therefore, is just warmed-oVer
deal In the Roman Empire unacy reached its peak
during the reign of ruler by the name of Dlocle-
tian. He was the funeral director who tackled the
crepe on the door.
First, he scrambled their standards of monetary
value. He tinkered with the currency. Money be-
came so unreliable that they quit using it almost
entirely. They bartered. They traded grapes for
fish. goats for fuel and, of course, that was slow
way of doing business. Confidence even in the SOL
veney of the government vanished. Credit, both
public and pirate, took wings and flew over the
fence.
Second He launched public works program, ne
built great aqueducts highways, bridges, public
baths, stadiums and parks. The cost was raised Dy
taxation. The burden, as usual, fell on the backs
of property owners, wage earners, and men OF the
soil, known agricoae.
Third: He gathered all authority unto himself.
He sidetracked the senate. He became one-man
government Though surrounded by an army OF
jeb-holders, all schemes and plans officially came
from him. He was an autocrat with crown on his
head and volcano at his feet
Fourth: In order to quiet the grumblings OF the
people and aid in business recovery" he fed thou
sands of them at public expense. He ordered that
all commodities be pegged at maximum price.
This placed all and industry in straight
Jacket Thereafter there were swings in prices
in response to the law of supply and demand OF

Fifth To provide manpower to carry on ms wars
he imported foreign slaves. They were not in SYM
pathy with the Roman form of government, and
when Rome began to wobbe they proved to be a
liability instead of an asset.

sion" and he appointed thousands Of investigators,
tax collectors, and coordinators that pried into
every business 1t the greatest bureaucracy
which the world has ever known, prior to the one

A BAD PRECEDENT

Lord Brougham is credited with the aphorism
that lawyer is learned gentleman who rescues
your estate from your enemies and keeps it to him.
self. The saying has not heretofore had much ap-
pIcation in North Carolina, but the story Of
the fees granted to counsel by the judges in the
suits and settlements revolving around the Zachary
Smith Reynolds estate makes it apropos. Yet not
quite so, for the size of these enormous fees was
fixed by the court.
The eight fees, two of which are yet to be an
nounced, are expected to bring the total of this
compensation for legal services to more than 49,,
600, 900, or about 10 per cent of the S33,000,O00
estate.
A news item in The Raleigh News and Observer
recalls that Attorney General Seawel and two as
sistants received their regular salaries for repre-
senting the State of North Carolina in the case.
In the past, $4,000 has been spoken of as the
maximum fee for North Carolina lawyers, and one
ito be long remembered. Many an able lawyer in
the state today doubtless considers himself doing
pretty well if he makes $4,000 year.
The presiding judges in the settlement of the
Reynolds estate have set a bad precedent.-Ashe-
vile Citizen. .-. ..-.

WASHINGTON. - Progressive
" leaders, dominated by a dele
cation from the U. S. Senate, hope
10 get together one of these days
and announce a progressive league
which will support Roosevelt for
reelection this year,
The meeting is somewhat over
due, however, and the best guess
as to the reason for that has to do
with the traditional inability of
some progressive prima donnas to
play on a team, complicated at the
moment by certain long range
dreams of presidential candidacy
in 1910.
Senators Robert M. LaFollette
of Wisconsin, George w. Norris of
Nebraska, Hiram Johnson of Cali
fornia, and Henrik ShipStead of
Minnesota are the leading. spirits
in the movement. They expect to
be joined by Gov. Floyd Olson and
Senator Elmer Benson of Mime
SOFA and, eventually, by Senators
Gerald Nye and Lynn Frazier of
North Dakota, from whose state
springs the third party candidacy
of Congressman Lenke.
Frank P. Walsh of New York
will be very active in the move
ment. Whether Mayor Fiorello
LaGuardia of New York Will tie
up with it isn't yet known.
...,.,
A SIDE from the reelection of
- Roosevelt, the chief matter in
the minds of these men is the
campaign of 1910. Four years
from now, they believe, they will
be campaigning for a farmer-la-
Dor ticket or a relatively radical
Democratic candidate in case it is
possible to nominate such a can
didate.
Expecting Roosevelt to win
again this year, they naturally are
thinking secondarily about whom
they'll want to succeed him.

No doubt this is true in every newspaper
office in the country. Under conditions
pressing in upon the newspapers from
every side-the constantly mounting taxes
and other fixed charges of doing business,
not to mention the regular operating costs,
it is clear that the time has fully come for
publishers to give serious consideration to
the problem of free publicity and other
free services, none of which are justified
on any sound principle of business.

BEHIND THE SCENES
IN WASHINGTON

i Such CONCENTRATIONS are said to
be affecting Senator Burton K.
Wheeler of Montana, outstanding
Democratic progressive in the
Senate.
And the rumor is that he is un.
happy over the fact that LaFol-
lette, former independent Repub-
lican, who now carries the banner
of his own Wisconsin Progressive
Party, is to head the progressive
league.
Whether or not Wheeler'S atti-
tude has held up the progressive
gathering-as some reports say
it doesn't appear that the Montana
senator has yet made plans for
any heavy campaign activity.
Democratic leaders who are,
worrying over party prospects in
Minnesota, the Dakotas, Montana,
and Nebraska on the basis of re-
cent polls believe Wheeler can do
as much as anyone toward carry
ing those states.
