HERE'S ANOTHER MODERN HERO

Our present nomination into the ranks
chuck, 3O-year-old mechanic, who risked
death to save the life of an eight-year-old
boy in New York State.
1t seems that the youngster, climbing
tree, reached out to catch pole, which
was charged with $500 volts of electricity
AS the current paralyzed his body, an ear
splitting scream sent his playmates scurry-
ing for help.
Two men, passing, started up the tree
until they saw what was the matter. A
third, Kowalchuck, succeeded in reaching
the boy, who was unconscious, with hands
and face turning blue. While current
passed through his own body, the me-
chanic managed to pry the boy loose and
get him to the ground. Both recovered al
thouah officials declared that they owed
their lives to dry weather and the dryness
of the limb on which they stood.
This incident illustrates theory which
we frequently eXpound, to w.t. that the
average man and woman of this age is
just as brave and courageous as anybody
whoever lived and that, given the date
with fate, they play their roles in life with
valor and honor. KOwalchuck, a me-
chanic, saving a small boys life, faced dan
gers that were as real as any that con
fronted the mailclad charger in the days
when brave knights rode to succor ladies
fair, and acted in a manner to reflect glory
upon the heroes of chivalry.

THE COMFORT SHOVEL

In facetious article the Springfield,
Mass, Union tells of the invention of
new comfort shovel for WPA workers,
devised by a humanitarian in that city.
The new shovel is said to be the greatest
boon for tired humanity since the advent
of the rocking chair.
The invention was inspired, it is said,
by complaints Of WPA workers that the
shovels issued them are too short to lean
on, and too high to sit on. This is rem
edied by the new model, which has a
curved arm rest at elbow height for shovel
-ers who are forced to stand while not
shoveling. Halfway down the handle is an
adjustable seat, so that workers who have
wearied of leaning when not shoveling can
sit down.
The seat is fixed on pivot, so that in
case the worker might really have to shovel
something in an emergency the tool can
actually be used. It's primary purpose,
however is for leaning or sitting.
The inventor contends that hired
WPA shoveler paid for not shoveling, is
entitled to the same comforts as are non
hog-raisers, for example, and all other
people paid by the government for not do
ing something.

DROPPING MRS. JARRETT

Much has been written about the
from the United States Olympic team and
the withdrawal of her name from the 100
meter backstroke swimming event which
she won four years ago at Los Angeles.
Never before has it been deemed
necessary to take such drastic action
against a member of the Olympic squad on
the eve of the games. Mrs. jarrett, it
seems, broke training, attended parties on
shipboard and drank too much accord
ing to her own admission. After warnings
she continued her course and in the words
of one coach, "She asked for it in fact, she
begged for it,
The discipline of the squad required
that some action be taken and we do not
see where the officials could have done
anything else, as much as we admire the
swimmers ability and regret to see her out
of the games and without the chance to
continue unbroken her seven years of I'M
beaten competition. We agree with her
boast that she "can beat anybody in the
world" but, apparently, she has lesson
to learn about self-control and obedience
to authority.
The charges that Mrs. Jarrett hurls
at the officials, after learning that they
would not reconsider her case, have moth
ing to do with the affair, although they
may lead to further Investigations. 1t is
significant that the swimmer was not con-
cerned with these things and made no COM
plant until she used them as counter
blast to her own astonishing dismissal
from the team.

left the Alliance and Joined the En-
tente.
1t is not true to say blindly that
history repeats itself, but there has
just occurred a spectacular and sig
nificant return of these same coun-
tries to the old associations. Germany
and Austria have just entered into
an agreement and probably Hungary
will be sympathetic if not actually
an active ally. Italy is said to have
encouraged the new arrangement
The combination is ltheaoid. Triple
Alliance with four Countries instead
of three, because Of the break up of
Austria-Hungary. +u.:E
Not long ago France entered into a
treaty with Russia which was the
excuse, if not the cause. for the Ger
man occupation of. the Rhineland.
Great Britain seems to be attempt
ing to retain the goodwill of Ger
many by making as many conces-
slons as possible but will presumably
not desert France These are clear
signs that Great Britain. France and
Russia will cnce more come together
in opposition to the group that were
formerly the Triple Alliance.
In the meantime all countries are
increasing their ornaments - even
some of the smaller and more pacific
ones such as Sweden. The similarity
of conditions to those before 1914 is
striking in many ways and appar-
emily the DANCE of a general war is
growing every day.

There are two views about It all.
One Is that of the cynic and the de.
featist He is skeptical of all efforts
at international cooperation and crit.
ical of the League Of Nations, the
World Court and other organized eff
forts to prevent war by collective
effort probably his attitude Is today
the prevailing one in the United
States.
Others urge a different approach.
They say that it is not the League Of
Nations that has failed. They point
out that the League is only an asso-
citation through which the various
countries have undertaken to work
in the settlement of some of their
problems. They declare that the fail.
ure should be called a failure of the
countries to use their own aSsocia-
ton.
Moreover they challenge critics Of
such an organization to propose an
other and better procedure. Many
problems now involve a large num-
Der of countries Economic and po-
litical life are so intricate that what
Is done by one country seriously af-
fectS many others Italy's conquest Of
Ethiopia and Japan's activities in
China are of tremendous importance
to everybody all over the world I'm
less ways can be found for collective
action to restrain aggressor countries
no country is safe.
This second group clearly have the
stronger argument. At present the
League of Nations is sorely beset If
1t is abandoned without a substitute.
there is nothing in sight except the
consolidation of these new alliances
which are so much like the old ones.
The old cries of pre-war days did
not prevent war but did much to
make war more certain. The new
ones threaten the same result.
At present the outlook is dark. New
alliances for old ones seem to be
bringing new wars. But. a war now
would be even more terrible than
the one of twenty years ago. Feeling
would be more bitter, weapons would
be more deadly and the destruction
far greater. 1t is strange that so many
are unwilling to consider procedures
for avoiding war and. so ready to
favor policies that make wars more
certain. ~
