THOUGHTS WHILE THINKING
By WICKES WAMBOLDT

dure what we do not like TO en-
dute, may be an important part
Of our instruction on this training
school planet.
Self-control through self-disci-
pline. or other discipline, is one
of life's greatest lessons. And we
cannot gain self-control doing on
" what we like to do and being
only where we like To- be.
A meticulous woman married
to a slovenlv man Tor vice versa
has two important tasks at hand
to school herself to patience
and to teach her mate neatness-
since cleanliness is next to godli-
ness and he that ruleth his spirit
is better than he that taketh a
city.
There is much more to this cx-
istence than is dreamed of in the
philosophy of the casual observer.
Each of us is a part Of a great
cosmic system with great obJec-
tive.

for such an order of things. and that word is
anarchy
Anarchy is neither good government nor bad
government. u..N
1t is neither the government of the Faseists
nor of the Communists. , .a,.. ,. ,n
1t is neither the government of capital nor of
labor.
1t is neither the government of employers or
of employees. ,.. . ...,a,-. .. ga ga .r...v' a.
Anarchy IS no government at all
1t is moth ng less than the last word in SOCIAL,
political and economic chaos. ....r .a' .
Into such as this the nation definitely appears
to be heading. ..' ... g., q. c. 'yr
To the foregoing The Observer adds an
estimate of John Lewis, with the charita-
BILE, if improbable suggestion, that he did
not foresee the course his radical move
ment would take and that it has now gone
far beyond his control. Then The Observer
expresses wonder at the attitude of the
President of the United States and says it
has "long been a question as to why he
should remain secretive and silent in the
face of such anarchy and bloodshed and
property and life destruction"
The Observer is emphatic in expressing
the opinion that all of this so-called labor
trouble could have been prevented by ac-
ton. of President Roosevelt, and that he
could act now to clear up this situation.
The Times-News agrees with The OBJ
servers conclusion that Roosevelt could
have stopped sit-down strikes and the other
anarchistic developments of the ClO upris-
ing. Why did he not act to do so? Answer
to this question is too lengthy to be printed
here: but let this be added to what goes
before:
The Times-News, The Charlotte Observ-
err and all other honest, patriotic news
papers of the South are concerned solely
with the welfare Of the nation; but ii the
nation cannot be saved, this newspaper is
confident the South can be; but the essen
tal point is that the South present united
and solid front in opposition to the an
archy of John Lewis and his cohorts.
Camouflaged as labor movement for
the improvement of conditions among the
working people, this movement has many
honest workers and other good citizens
fooled. Whatever may have been his orig
inal intentions, Lewis sold out his G. l. ..
to the anarchists, communists and every
brand of radical that could be rounded up,
for the support he thought necessary to
enable him to subjugate the workers and
industrialists of the country and vest all
economic and political power in himself as
the great American dictator when his pro-
tege. President Roosevelt, retires from Of
fee.
May the South wake up and face the
facts and make preparations for the in
evitable crisis that will soon confront this
section of the nation!

BY what yardstick or other
unit of measurement can we
measure what the civic, standards
should be for contmuhityc
Is the measure OF normal civic
activities to be determined by
the needs of the community or
by the disposition and nature Of
its people?
To what extent are the stand
ards of citizenship determined by
the attitudes in the individual
home? Are these standards lower
or higher than those of the av-
crage home? Would it be fair TO
arrive ut our batting average
as citizens by finding the sum to-
tai of citizenship activities and
dividing it by the number of fam
lies lat bat?

LETTING DOWN THE BARS

1t is always risky to let the
bars down, for once 4 thing starts
afield there is no telling how far
it will go. As an illustration of
the foregoing axiom, see what has
happened since the federal admin
istration relaxed its vigilance re-
garding the civil service or merit
system of CHOOSING governmental
employees. Every student of en-
ployment knows that the Compel
tive merit system is the only
sound way of filling public jobs
where smelly politics always seeks
to WELD influence and pull wires.
Yet since 1888 congress has Gre

''Inside Story" Youngsters Working Early Mornings to Earn Milk for
 Families.
Stories of "soft hearted milk

Stories of "Boft hearted milk men" are being Substantlated at probation hearings in cases involv- Ing youngsters who have been working during the early morning hours with the milkmen
 Several of tho cases have been disposed of in manners most acc ceptable to the probation officials and also the police department. Both departments have started Q drive to keep the children of the streets at such early hours.
 In at least three instances the youngsters had been working for the milSmen in return for milk which was delivered daily fuS their younger brothers and SlS- terS. Destitute families had de- pended upon delivery of .nllk un. dor such circumstances, and had been forced to allow the minor children to gO out and peddle early in the morning.
 Everyone of the milkmen cun- JucVeu Dy onclhlS toQhy agreed to continue leaving the free milk for the families of their former young assistants, even though the boys no longer were allowed to help them, They also agreed to hire boys of at least high school age, who would be approved by the probation office.
 Since publication of stories that tho police had been seeking to have such practice discontinued, several milkmen who have ale lowed children to work with them have contacted Miss Crowley and told her that they would cooper ate fully with her and the police.
 The purpose of the campaign is to keep tho youngsters of the streets ct such early hours, Being Nt large at such times is apt to cause juveniles to fall Into had habits, according to officials,

, minority federation groups whose leaders want peace on Q liberaliEed A. F. of l.. frame work. One faction is led by George Harrison, head of the Railway Clerks and Sen. George l.. Berry, D., Tenn, president of the Pressmen's Union. Their unions have not been raided by the 0. I. o. and they are urging that labor unite to take advantage of the friendly labor policies of the New Deal.
 A second group headed by Morris Muster, head of the Upholsters Union, openly criticized the execu- tive council for its "die-hard" policy toward industrial unlonlsm; com- plained that the council dominated the convention and denounced A. Y of l.. leadership for throwing away chances to unionize the workers Ii, mass production industries.
 Plans If War Comes
 If war to the end comes, the execu- tive council will direct the federa- ton forces. It discussed A three- point attack on the Q. I. o. at the Denver convention:
 1. To keep before the public charges that 0. I. o. iS touched with communism and has been irrespon- sible in contractural relations while the federation unions were obserV- ing oil contracts to the letter.
 2. To adopt on aggressive policy of organization designed to oVer- come Lewis charges that federation leaders are interested only in per- sonal emoluments and not in the fate of the workers.
 3. To purge the federation of 0 few of the big c. I. Q. unions in an attempt to freighten others into de- sertion from the rebel organiEa ton.
 The 0. I. o. has no executive council and It's battle plans would be made by Lewis and carried out by c tight little group of advisers which include Philip Murray, chair man of the Steel Workers Organize Ing Committee; Hillman; David Due binsky, president of the Amalgamat- cd Clothing Workers: Joseph Cur- ran, east coast maritime leader and Harvey FTemning, head of tho oil workers.
