MOTHERS, TAKE NOTICE

Mothers in our rural sections who worry be-
cause they are not able to give their children
all the advantages that 60 with wealth and posi-
ton have been given some comforting facts in
a recent article published by the beloved writer
Dorothy Dix Miss Dix realizes that what we
have we do not strive to get and that ninety
percent of the successful men and women in the
world were poor boys and girls. 1t is the boys
who walked in boyhood who later on have auto
mobiles in their garages. Most of the men who
live in palaces were born in humble cottages.
The great financiers learned how to handle
money when they thought dime was wealth.
More scholars worked their way through school
than rode to college in their own automobiles.
Give years ago identical twin boys were
born. In the interest of science their parents
permitted one of these children to be taken
away from home to a famous child clinic where
he was given the works, so to speak, and every
thing possible done to develop him mentally and
physically. The other child was allowed to tun-
BILE up in an ordinary home, where youngsters
were pretty much left to shift for themselves
and nobody bothered to teach them anything
except to wash behind their ears and say: "Now
l lay me-"
"The other day these twin brothers, with
such different rearing, were brought together
for comparison, and the scientists who conduct
ed the test were amazed to find that the un-
taught, unframed twin was far cleverer, quicker
in the uptake had more initiative, showed
greater interest in new things and learned faster
than his highly "conditioned" brother.
"The story of these children should do much
to comfort mothers who always beating up
on their breasts and filling the air with their
lamentations because they cannot give their
children what they think are the advantages of
education that rich children have. They can't
send their toddlers to expensive pre-schools.
They can't afford nursery governesses and tu-
tors for them. They can't send their sons and
daughters off to famous colleges.
"Their little Johnnys selling papers after
school, while the children of millionaires are
taking golf lessons from high priced profession
ais. Their Marys and Sallys must rush home
from high school to help get the dinner and take
the baby out, while Mamye and Sadye Astorbilt
are learning the latest dance step.
So poor mother sprinkles down the shirt she
is ironing for John and the dress she is pressing
out for Hattie with her tears because she can't
give her children the expensive training that is
given to the sons and daughters of the rich. She
feels that they are hopelessly handicapped, and
that boy who has gotten his education in the
University of Hard Knocks cannot possibly COM
pete with one who has spent four years on
college campus, even if all the learning he &C
quired there were idle and extravagant habits
and how to shake up 81 different varieties of
cocktails"

"The three great branches of the
government have joint concern in
this situation"
"It is :. a matter of deep regret
to know that lawyers of high stand
ing at the bar not only have advised
and are advising their clients to uti-
lie tax avoidance devices, but are
actively using these devices in their
own personal affairs"

aimed at making the present tax
structure evasion-proof."

methods of escape or intended
escape from tax liability are many.
Some are instances of avoidance
which appear to have the color of
legality; others are on the border
line of legality; others are plainly
contrary even to the letter of the
law"

Without expressing an opinion as to who was
right and who was wrong, it is a fact that the
Supreme Court dropped monkey wrench into
the Administration machinery a while back
when the NRA and allies projects were set
aside as unconstitutional. Within the past few
days the Court has validated the Security Act,
putting its approval on job insurance and old
age pensions. Although the specific measures
passed upon are important in themselves, the
main point to be noted is that the Court-it is
said-has come to take broader view of what
is called the general welfare provisions of the
Constitution. We wonder if the broader vision
was helped any by the attacks being made on it.
Now the relations between Spain and Ger
many are reminding us that war is much easier
to get into than to get out of.

WHOM THE GODS WOULD
DESTROY

If anybody ever asked for trou
BILE, Hitler is the man. For sew
eral years, now, he has been riding
les and stepping on sensitive toes.
And he has been getting away with
it for three very good reasons:
First, ever since Versailles there
has been good deal of sympathy
for the German people. Even Ger
many's former enemies have felt
that, in light of the IA points of
President Wilson, she was given
pretty raw deal, and that she had
coming to her a rather liberal re-
vision of the peace treaty.
Second, France, England and 9TH
ers of Germany's neighbors are so
afraid of war that they have pre-
ferred to turn the other cheek to
repeated provocations rather than
risk the consequences of striking
back.
Third, these same neighbors have
never been quite united on what to
do or how to deal with resurgent
Germany. England and France, in
particular, have not seen eye to
eye.
The situation thus created by the
divergent views of London, Paris,
Rome, Warsaw, Moscow and other
world capitals was made to order
for the gambling Fuehrer. He could,
and did, get away with audacious
coup after coup.
Today he faces totally different
setup. If news reports prove true,
and Hitler is really attempting to
gain a foothold in Spain and Moroc-
co, most likely he will get the trou-
BILE for which he has been asking SO
long.
Neither Britain nor France can
afford to let him achieve any such
ambition. 1t would put Germany in
a position to attack France from the
north and south at the same time.
It would cut France or from Moroc-
co, a colony richer than California.
It would nullify Britain's Gibraltar.
