Reinersville Correspondent.
Imperial Valley press., 1936-12-27

Not the least diyerting of the odd
stories of the day is the one about
the stout Moorish soldiers in the
Spanish rebel army who dined on
a laboratory-full of germ-filled
guinea pigs and came out none the
worse.
According to this yarn, the Moors
about a month ago seized a medical
laboratory, among other things,
when the rebel troops stormed the
University City section of Madrid
In the laboratory were large
number of guinea pigs-along with
rabbits, chickens, and other small
deer-which had been pumped full
of all kinds of germs, from those
of cholera to those of leprosy.
To a Moorish soldier fresh from
a battle, apparently, anything that
has four legs and moves is meal.
So these doughty fighting men
rounded up the laboratory animals,
built little fire somewhere, and
had themselves a banquet-eating,
all unwittingly, enough assorted
and horrible disease germs to de-
climate half of Spain.
\
Whether it was because they
cooked the germs out of all activity
or because nothing can hurt a Moor
is not quite clear. But, at any rate
the little experiment seems to have
passed off without i'll effect.
While doctors applied anti-toxins'
waited with bated breaths, and kept
their fingers crossed, the hardy
Moors went on about their ordinary
routine and missed not one day OF
soldering. :,

FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION
WOULD ESTABLISH
DANGEROUS PRECEDENT

The Federal Trade Commission will
ask congress in the next session to re-
consider the once-defeated Wheeler-Ray-
burn bill, which would give the COM
mission discretionary powers in regula-
ton of advertising. The bill was defeat
ed in the last session because 1t was
felt to be a definite threat against one
of the major principles on which the
United States was founded. 1t was voted
down because it was seen as the possible
first step in curbing freedom of speech
and opinion in this country. 1t should
be defeated again for the same reason.
No one except the most unscrupulous
could object to a law enforcing truth
full advertising by prohibiting unfair
practice and deceptive announcements.
No ethical publisher will accept such
advertising now and none would work
against law defining what is fair and
unfair, if the law were just To leave
the decision entirely in the hands of a
politically appointed committee or COM
mission, however, would be to invite poll
tics into business. It would give those
in political power the right to revenge
their grievances against those who dis
agree with them. 1t would, in effect,
furnish powerful club over the heads
of advertisers and advertising mediums.
the American continent. In no other
part of the world is there a nation
which regards so religiously the famous
quotation from Voltaire: Il may not
agree with what you say, but | will de-
fend to the death your right to say it."
Any threat to abridge by law the free
dom of speech, regardless of the excuse
made for such law, is one which should
meet the opposition of the entire Amer
lean people. Any step in that direction
should be unalterably opposed. Govern
ment, if it is to be successful, cannot
tell its people what they shall say and
what they shall read, as long as they
stay within reasonable limits.
If the Wheeler Rayburn bill were
enacted it is possible that there would
be no abuse under the present admins
tration-but there might come time
when the law would be used for poll
tical purposes. No law which can be
used in such a way should be placed on
the statute books.

BUSINESS HAS EARNED
MORE THAN A BREATHING SPELL

If the congress of the United States,
meeting next month, is really interested
in seeing continued improvement in the
business and industrial life of the nation,
it will confine its attentions to govern
mental matters and leave business men
to run business matters. There are
times when government intervention is
necessary, when it is welcomed by busi-
ness. This country is just now emerg-
ing from such a time Regulation, to
certain extent, and governmental help
in many ways, have been necessary dur
ing the last several years They have
had their result.
Roger Babson, famous economist has
predicted that 1887 will be the first
year of real prosperity since 1929"
Others agree with him. Statistics bear
him out They show that salaries and
payrolls have been increased, that more
men have been employed, and that bank
ruptcy has been showed into the back
ground
Business owes much to the government
for this bright outlook, but now business
is able to proceed under its own steam.
1t will go ahead faster without the pres
ence of brakes applied by additional
governmental interference The brakes
were needed when things were going at
a runaway pace down hill On the up
hill climb, they do nothing but harm.
Business is on the upgrade.
The administration has promised a
"breathing spell' from governmental
too-strict regulation. 1t should be more
than that-it should be freedom from in
reference, lasting until the stress of
circumstance is found to make such in
reference necessary for the continued
good of the nation.

LORD BEAVERBROOK ASKS
FOR ENLIGHTENMENT

Lord BeaVerbrook, famous English
newspaper publisher, is considering an
experiment which may bring enlighten-
ment both to himself and to small por-
tion of the American newspaper public.
'If there is place for middle-aged
man." he says, he will start a newspaper
in Phoenix If he does, the result should
be both entertaining and enlightening-
to Phoenix and to Lord Beaverbrook
American newspaper methods are not
the same as those used in England.
1t is too soon to forget that the British
press did not mention Mrs. Wallis Simp-
sons love affair with King Edward until
little more than week before the king
abdicated.
The American newspapers, Lord Beav-
erbrook will learn, believe that their
readers are entitled to know what their
leaders are doing
