NEWSPAPERS OPINIONS
NEWSPAPERS AND SOUTHERN DEVELOP
=. = MENT 20"

Of all the newspaper bodies in America none,
we think, has achieved finer reputation than the
Srtbern Newspaper Publishers Association and its
oonveptisns long ago became famous for their
worthwhile character. We are interested to see
that this year the program committee has ar
iranred as announced by Captain Cranston VII
.hams;s secretary-manager, to get away to con-
siderable extent from the business side of the
newspaper for the purpose of afordng more time
for a discussion of the problems of the South
That it seems to us. is finely constructive move
and we hope that it proves successful as to en-
courare vigorous activities on this line. Our only
sngyestion would be that instead of avoiding con-
+roversaI matters as it is stated is the intention,
= will nrobably be we'll deliberately to bring in
srch issnes, There has mot been in recent years
ANYTHING like enough controversy on public ques-
tions on the part of southern newspapers among
themselves. The decline of such controversy has
been, in our opinion, loss. ---'''.
No one, of course would like to see return to
the acrimony and personal bitterness winch zoo
often characterized newspaper controversies IN 1or
mer times But there is no need Of that. The dis
cussions should be fact-fnding and truth-seeklng
and if conducted in that spirit they could be I'M
mensely stimulating informing and prontaoie'
Whether We have or nave not E.o'eo HIo a he"
era it is plain that the South is in the midst OF
changes some of which undoubtedly are far-reach-
ing in their implications The rest OF the country
is still accustomed to speak Of the South as being
"solid" Perhaps that is still true politically as
IL has long been; but those of US whose destiny is
cast with the South know that few of us are as
well informed as we could wish about other parts
of it than our own. We know that the southern
people are as whole by no means as far advanced
as they should be in understanding and appreclat-
ing their common problems and their common in
terests Surely there is no agency better fitted to
take the lead in the working out of an intelligent
regional program, dealing with matters in which
the southern people have common interest, than
is the Southern Newspaper Publishers Association;
and no other agency is anything like so well equip
ped to interpret and further such program

WASHINGTON - Congressman
WHO have been getting cross
eyed from keeping one eye on
Father Coughlin>s National Union
for. Social Justice and the other
eye on the Townsendites, got
Some comfort, but not much, from
the, OHIO primaries.
They got, more from the defeat
of the Frazier-Lemke bill, which
had Coughlin's .unstinted backing.
One of the arguments used as a
good reason for defeating the bill
was to cite Coughlin's advocacy
and. his dictatorial attitude. ., .
When Coughlin got into verbal
row recently with Chairman John
OConnor of the rules committee
over the bill, many, congressman
saw that O'Connor was fighting
their battle, and sympathized with
him rather than with Coughlin!l
- i Il
RUT nrthe Ohio primaries he
provided a beautiful object
lesson. Ohio was watched as
practical test of both the NUSJ
and the Townsend groups at the
| polls, Both together would aver
age about as strong in the state as
anywhere in the country.
The political priest had chosen
that citadel of his organization TO;
make a personal appeal, At a,
Cleveland mass meeting Just be-
fore the priniaryss he addressed
$4,000 listeners. and broadcast a
statewide appeal for all his cam
didates by name.
The results, almost justified the
boast of Coughlin'S Ohio manager.
Sylvester. Mcmahon, that laif the
candidates backed by the NUSJ
would come through. But Ohio
observers report many factors en-
tering locally into the district con-
tests that destroy the purity of
the test.
For instance, the spearhead of
Coughlin's attack in Cleveland
was aimed at Chester Bolton, G

Crosser again is a special case
with an intensely loyal personal
following
While he favors many NUSJ
ideas. Crosscr resolutely refused
10 sign the pledge to vote as
Father Coughlin directs, which is
usually required in exchange for
NUSJ support.
VERY quietly, one of the thorns
in the flesh of the Roosevelt
administration is being with
drawn. The threat of .Huey Long
TO ALLEVIATE a great part of the ira
ditionally Democratic south, was
a very real one. His death partly:
checked that.
y But the new governor, Richard
w. cLeche, just inaugurated, has
given every indication that he
wants no feuds with Washington.
Pledged TO carry on Huey's work
in Louisiana, he has nevertheless
given every indication that he is
more than willing that the Creole
state re-entcr the Roosevelt fold.
All of which is good for a sigh
of relief from Jim Farley, for the
less spade work he has to do in
states normally Democratic, the
more ticks he can get in on those
which are admittedly doubtful.

WAR INSURANCE ONLY HALF WAY
TO PEACE ...
1By BRUCE CATION

(by DhOS6 hNA'
IF man owned a factory and spent huge
sums to pay for fire insurance, but refused
TO Law out a dime to remedy the defective
wiring, faulty flues, and other defects
which made fires probable, it would not DE
long before his friends and relatives gath
cred about to have his head examined.
There never has been a factory owner
like that and there never will be. But man.
kind as a whole seems to be bent on max
ING very similar record in regard to the the
danger of war. ~. ,......
A current bulletin from the League OF
Nations Association in New York Illus
trates the point. ......
The League of Nations budget for 1886
has lust been revealed, During this year
the league will spend slightly more than
ss,237 900, all told. THIS is about equal to
four days expenditure 1,pf the United
States 1886 armament budget. 49,. .
Similarly, the cost of supporting the
league from 1920, to, the present moment
is substantially less than the cost OF MAIN
tanning Japanese troops IN Msnchukuo IN
1884. Great Britain has paid to the league,
from the first to last, about .one-fourth OF
the price of a new dreadnaught. Inciden-
tally, even this expense has been clear
gravy, for the leagues rescue of Austrian
credit in 1922 enabled Great Britain to re-
cover loan to Austria of two and one,
half million pounds, which otherwise would
have been written off as bad debt.
This, then, is the way the world is viii
ling to spend for peace. For fire insurance
in the form of armies, nayies and air fleets
it will pour out billions of dollars; for fire
prevention, in the form of the one interna.
tional organization which can do anything
toward keeping the peace, it spends next
to nothing, .-..... .,
If there is anything logical about a world
that lays out its money that way, the logic
is not visible to the naked eye.
A good deal has been said lately about
the death" of the league. Certainly the
league has proved unable to check the Jap
anese in Mahchukuo, the Italians in Ethio
pia, or the Germans in the Rhineland. Blu
each failure merely emphasizes the world
dire need of league which would be .trull!
effective
Unless modern civilization is. to collaps'
utterly in the fires of war, there must b.
some strong, concerted action to remov'
wars causes and to compel adventures t
keep the peace. Such action can be takel
only through the league or through som
organization remarkably like it. How Ion,
will it be before the world at.large is read
to realize that fact? 49,
AS things stand now, we are spendini
all our money on fire insurance and LETTING
fire prevention take care of itself.
