female Red agitators the country has ever
known; and it has been brought to the
fore again by such agitators as Madam
Perkins, backed by a radical national ad-
ministration which has used federal power
in period of extraordinary conditions to
coerce the States into adoption OF the
amendment.
"But we can trust Congress" shout the
friends of the measure.
Our answer is that we could not trust
the Congress which adopted the amend
ment and sent it down to the States. II
that Congress could have been, trusted 1t
would never have fallen under the spell of
female Red agitators.
Who believes we could have trusted the
two Congresses sitting in Washington in
the past four years? The records they
made are absolute assurance that they
could not be trusted. They were busy the
entire four years in delegating to the Pres
ident and government bureaus all the con-
stitutional authority Congress possessed;
and not satisfied with that they tried to
delegate vast amount OF authority not
possessed by Congress at all. ......
So far the present Congress does not APP
pear to be any Improvement over the two
sitting during the past four years.
The chances are probably 1000 to that
if this amendment is adopted during the
life of the present Congress it will imme-
diately delegate all the power contained
therein to the radical women OF the chill
dren's bureau of the Labor Department,
with instructions to go as far as they like
in enforcing it.

TWO DEMANDS OF SOCIETY

The world demands character and carefuness.
Schools, churches, magistrates, the printed word
and the best efforts of fathers and mothers are
striving to develop the finest traits of human char
acter in children and to nculcate carefulness into
their every day life. watch your STEP" and
"Look out for the cars" are admonitions familiar
to every child.
Character is part of our education and it is
on different basis from the way 1t was viewed
when the old Colonial Governor Berkeley COM
planned way back in 1871, that he "thank God
there are no free schools, and no printing be-
cause learning has brought disobedience and here
sy. and sects into the world, and printing has d-
vulged them, and ibels against the best govern
ment"
Growing children should strive to respect the
laws and obey them as one of the pathways to
development of character.
There is a world of difference between the spirit
for legitimate adventure and class of reckless
ness that borders on the edge of lawessness. Char
acter may be developed by the child who refuses
to deceive his, or her parents, or to embarrass or
bring pain or shame upon solicitous or indulgent
father or mother. Even if parents may be cold
fashioned" why not humor them? 1t is a safe
thing to do.
Character and carefuness developed in youth
will enable the child that grows to manhood and
womanhood to avoid the tremendous dangers of
gambling and speculation. "
1t is violation Of the laws and of the rules Of
society to endanger the public by reckless automo-
bile driving The youth who "puts his foot down
hard" should remember the warning of the cop
who advised young lady to wear lighter shoes
because those she had on bore down too hard on

The foregoing episode created

many years, to perform a certain

Senator O'Mahoney recalled the
time he had his picture taken with

friend had written him that he'd
missed great opportunity to APP

of the "underprivileged" consid-

well understood Tugwell and his
desire to distribute the good things

Senator LaFollette, deadly Sc

of a man with whom ore wouldn't

BEWARE OF EANATICISM

1t is easy to become fanatlcal
about the cause one is working for
or is committed to. One is likely,
unless one watches himself, to
feel that the single movement
which he is striving to get going,
is of greater Importance than all
other enterprises and influences
which touch the life of this world.
1t is possible, for instance, that
the agent of an institution eStab-
liShcd to protect lower animals
from mistrcatment, may come to
believe that consideration for the
feelings of these same lower ami
mails is more to be desired than
consideration for the human be-
ingS whom these animals are de-
signed to serve, and which SER
vice is the reason for their exist
cnce.
On one occasion n young wo-
man who had blue muff, went
to the length when she washed
her white Persian cat, off putting
