OUR SOCIAL MANDATES

In our frantic and alarmed interest in the mere
physical wretchedneSs that aboundS let us not be
unmindful of our relatednesS to those fine agencies
whose ministry strikes deeper than the hunger i'm
pulse whose services expended in the area of
social relationships and moral and spiritual values
In the riddle of our social progress. there may
be some things more terrifying than bodily want.
Vicious human relationships, unwholesOme and
crippling social environments, influences that dead
en- the moral sense and stife the spiritual impulses,
impacts here and there among the young which
impinge upon quality of life and Characteristic
end of these things is more fearful and enduring
than to perish for bread.
The acuteneSs of physical wretchedneSs has a
keen edge 1t is spectacular and dramatic in its
appeal.
But there are chronic social deformites and
moral maladies among us, which, if neglected and
left alone are more wreckng in their consequences
than the tragedy of unappeased bodily needs. Fear
not only those conditions which will kill the body
but fear ye, the rather. those influences current
among our young especially which have it within
their power to put both body and soul into Sheol
These strange times have wrought as much havoc
in these spheres as in intensifying the extent and
acuteness of bodily restitution Vastly increased
are the burdens of loneliness and isolation, bur-
QenS OF the neglected ana uluSlpIlNLcSeu, Jul
dens of desperate young manhood and womanhood
struggling against the blghting forces that would
destroy them, burdens of abandoned babes and
cropping old age with faces pressed against the
western windows of life.
1t is urwise to risk holiday in our charity for
the maintenance of institutions and agencies that
serve IN these spheres We may recess on it if we
please, and thereby impair our social machinery
that works to the end of lifebuilding, but in the
end the cost must be met.
The question to be decided is whether we shall
go on paying in advance to keep morals from slip
ping whether, by passing it up now, pay later
and more extensively in economic and human
values for hospital care, for court action for uve
nile delinquency and relief expenditures for vast
ly more devitalized and demorazed society.
1t is not much more intelligent and economical
to maintain in good repair the protecting fence

until tomorrow and send multiplied ambulances to
gather up the wrecks of those who otherwise will
have fallen over to their permanent if not fatal

ARMISTIcE DAY-LEST WE FORGET

The approach of Amistice Day naturally causes
our thoughts to turn backward 10 years to the
memorable announcement that the World war had
come to an end.
It should make us reflect upon the mad course
of the world since that happy day. The war to
end war" was undoubtedly failure so far as ac-
complishing the great idea concerned but this
does not mean necessarily, that it was entirely IN
vain.
Today we see a world getting ready to fight.
There is no mistake about the intent of several
nations although there is some doubt about the
time Already the tide in this country is running
against our ENHANCEMENT and the argument used
the experience that have thad with the dlplo-
mats since the great came to an end.
Whether the United States could have been a
potent factor for peace if this country had joined
the League of Nations and that agency had func-
toned as it was intended remains matter OF
angry dispute Certain it is however, that our
course since the World war, has not been success
full in preventing the world from approaching the
bring of another titanic struggle. Whether 1t Will
be the means of enabling to avoid conflict re-
mains to be seen but there is great doubt if this
will be the case
Anyway there is again upon US the opportunity
10 pay reverent tribute to the brave souls who
gave up their lives for this nation in battle. They
deserve the reverent gratitude of free people
and their memory should be enshrined in the
hearts of those familiar with the great sacrhce
they made. 81 far as they were concerned, they
died in behalf of noble ideal, enunciated by
great American, and their heroism is not to be
sighted because the dream of peace has not yet
arrived
So, The Progress salutes the memory of the de-
parted soldiers sailors, marines and nurses WITH
out in any degree clarifying warfare, we glory IN
their greatness. To them duty made the greatest
of demands, that they lay down their lives for their
country and their response was new era IN
American patriotism. Let us always remember
them.
Let us do a little more than remmeber these
dead heroes. They have left behind them loved
ones who miss the contribution that their existence
might have made to comfort. Let not the nation,
or the surviving veterans in their Jealous advocacy
of pensions and payments to the living, overlook
the stranded loved ones who seem not to be or
ganized to secure for themselves the bounty that
they sometimes require and undoubtedly deserve

BRITAINS WAR STAND BARES Peril
TO UNITED STATES
(Bv BRUCE CATION

The traditional big-heartedneSS OF the
British statesman, who is always Wiling
to give full moral support to any other ma
ton which wants to help save the British
empire, was never better illustrated than
by dapper Anthony Eden's little speech
made lust before he set out to attend the
Brussels conference.
Great Britain, said Mr.. Eden, will be
very happy to go lust as far as the United
States will 60" in measures to end the Chi
nese-JapaneSe war.
She will not rush out in front, he said
but she will not be left behind, either. She
will follow Uncle Sans lead whole-heart-
edly. and if the old gentleman gets up on
the firing line, John Bull vii be right at his
elbow. or reasonably close to it.
This sounds very fine until the moment
when you stop to analyze the Chinese stu
alton and see just who owns most OF the
cheStnuts that are resting on the Goals
Then il begins to look different.
The real estate that is being shot full OF
holes at Shanghai is not owned by Ameri-
cans-not very much of it, anyhow. 1t IS
largely British.
The foreign trade that is stagnatlng
while Chinese and Japanese slug one an
other in the mud is not very heavily Amer
lean. 1t is mostly British.
The heavy investments that are dwind-
ling and dying because of the war are not
principally American. They are reckoned
more often in pounds sterling than IN DOL
lars.
Most important, the worldwide impe-
realistic system which is threatened to lts
very core by this sudden uprising OF orr
entail peoples, who are grimly proving that
the white races can be defied with impun-
ity and that the exploited east can find the
strength to look after its own atfairS-thls
system is not American, but British. More
exactly, it is the British empire itself.
America has a stake in the Chinese stu
alton, of courSe-but It is a relatively small
one. Britain has an intellectually large one
More than any other nation on earth, 1t Is
to her interest to see peace restored and
Japanese military might restrained
1t goes a little against the grain, there
fore, to see the British foreign secretary
declaring that England will Ego just as far
as the United States will go" in trying to
bring about a settlement.
1t serves, too, as a very timely warning
to the American government. Reversing
policy which has existed since the Yer
sailles peace conference, that government
is now seeking to cooperate with other
nations to restore international order. Here
is an indication that Uncle Sans co-opera-
ton is expected to result in his getting out
in front and taking the lead.
The warning must be needed, unless we
want to find ourselves engaged in the
thankless game of raking British chestnuts
out of a very hot fire.

BY the time the man had fin

had started it. he found himself
back at his hotel. Proceeding inn
mediatcly to their room, he said
to his wife, I'm burnt up with
this place! What do you say to

wife with evident relief. She had

the conQucring hero cowardly? Or

The fact is. it takes courage to

WASHINGTON -

WAsHINGTON, - Exchange oil
" fire between the Maritime
Commission and the National
Maritime Union, featured by
Chairman Joe Kcnnedy'S put
rem in irons" cable TO the Algic'S
captain at Montevideo and union
President Joe Curran'S promise to
"get Kennedv'S scalp" IS going to
get hotter.
The two chief factors begging
solution are a strong anti-unIon
feeling among most members OF
the commission and its staff and a
serious series of breaches Of diSci-
pline, especially among stewards,
in. the American merchant marine.
Labor leaders don't know it yet,
but they'll be hollering blue muir
der when the commiSSion'S report
on the whole merchant marine sit
uation is sent TO Congress this
month. The commission has de-
cided that the Coast Guard should
be used TO train Seamen, that new
Seamen should learn discipline on
Coast Guard vessels and that sub
Sidy contracts should require ship
operators TO hire the graduates.
This hits the seamen'S unions
right between the eyes. 1t would
strike at their union hiring halls,
where men are provided Coz out
going ships, and tend to weaken
if not destroy the unions.
The scheme is sure to be de-
nounced as a "union-buSting" de-
vice and reports from inside the
commission indicate that some
members and high officials be-
ueve, with either enthusiasm or
diSepproval, that it is exactly that.
The dominant feeling in the COM
mission is that labor unions, at
least militant unions, have no
place in the merchant marine.

In the background is the fact
that seamen whose wages were
forced down as low as S25 or S3C
a month and who crowded into
filthy. vermin infested quarters
with bad food until many OF the
better ones left the sea, are now
feeling their oats and releasing
pent-up emotions.
But the commission is ieelins
its oats, too, and has hired men
for key jobs who privately admit
anti-union prejudice.
The question will be asked
fairly or not, why the Maritime

There is no record that 1t ever
has taken up any complaint with

ROOsEVELT'S EXAMPLE

election Tuesday but he did not disclose how he
marked his ballot-it nobody's business but
his own-and his neghbors wondered If he voted
straight Democratic ticket
1t would have been no surprise had he an
nounced that he did not vote straight ticket. He
had failed to do so before, and had said so.
Independent voting is commonplace in other sec
tons of the country but in the South we continue
to shy away from the idea, Notwithstanding the
example set by the nations Democrat Number One
and by a host of his fellow citizens.
