A kingdom al his own. The Duke
was al Ter Il. But the barons OF
Normandy en- whom he had to rely
for support opposed the suggestion.
They lad enough trouble OF then
own at home No foreign wars Ioi
them. This Is how the Duke got
ne reaalaitrant barons TO support
his conquest:
He ordered them to attend pan
ouet at Iillebonne. and, OF course,
there were after-dinner speeches.
Ninety per cent of all those present
we're bitterly opposed 10 the pro-
DCsed war. But III almost amy
meeting It isn't the ninety per cent

THOUGHTS William Fitz OSberne Was
glib talkar He addressed the
meeting and assured the Duke that
all the barons were behind him
one hundred per cent. He even
promised him that the barQns would
support nim with twice as many
knights as they were supposed TO
send.
The baronS muttered under their
breaths and whispered TO each
other that the speaker was forty
kinds of a compound liar and he
knew it. But not one OF them had
the courage and ability to stand
up and say in public what he
thought in private. So the meet
1no was dismissed: and then the
Duke sent for each baron person
ally and asked him if he could
count on his enthusiastic cooper
atlon IN the war. Each baron said,
Yes. Sure! You can count on me. y
He was afraid to say anything else.
So one OF the great battles that
changed the course of history VAS
fought because ole leader was a
fluent speaker.
Do YOU want to become a leader
Of men? Do you want influence,
poWe.. prestige in your business,
your profession. your community?
Il so. have ideas and convictions.
Then develop the ability to think
on your feet and speak before
groups. Enroll for a course in pub
lie speaking. # there is no sucA
c,mse available IN your communi-

together one night week and
practice speaking.
I have often seen the ability to
speak change d mans entire life.

THESE BOYS AREN'T
REALLY BAD

The detention by FL Centre police au-
thorities for juvenile officers of group
of boys who made a practice of stealing
gasoline and looting coin-operated gas
meters should not be considered by any
one as disgraceful episode. It is rather,
disciplinary step.
These boys are no more criminals than
Tom Sawyer or Huckleberry Finn. They
are just boys.
Their plight does, however, demon
strate the need in the community for a
supervised playground system, among
other things. 1t shows, too, that sympa-
thetic understanding is necessary in each
of the individual cases to make sure the
lads do not go on to more serious of
fenses against the public good.
The boys have done something of
which they, themselves, should be hearth
~ ashamed They have demonstrated
not that they are unusually smart, as
they might have been inclined to think
before their detention, but that they are
unusually dumb. They have. by infer
ence, admitted that they cannot compete,
or are afraid to try to compete honestly
with other boys in working for the things
they want.
1t is this fact which should be brought
out to such youngsters-the fact that it
takes far more stamina and brains to win
any game honestly; the fact that only
a weakling stoops to dishonest dealing
Through a supervised playground sys-
TEN that is part of a general campaign
to prove to Ell Centres youth that hon
esty pays, and dishonesty sooner or later
is always punished, this community can
do much to save young people and their
parents the embarrassment of such cpl
sodes as that of the last weekend
Meanwhile it is the community's duty
to show these young people that the thing
they have done, possibly in spirit of
misdirected juvenile daring, is not actu-
ally smart, nor even courageous; but
only utterly foolish.

A BAD SITUATION.
If DIES IS RIGHT

Chairman Martin Dies of congress
sional committee investigating un-Amer-
lean activities has made many sensational
charges, but none has been more serious
than his statement this week that many
persons in federal employ are busily en-
gagged in promoting class hatreds.
If the declaration is founded on fact,
every resource Of the federal government
should be turned to an effort to oust
those responsible for such campaign
The truth or untruth of Dies charges
should be arrived at, by all means.
Glass hatred is directly opposed to the
American system. It is hangover from
the feudal days of Europe, when serf,
landowner and tennant hated nobility
1t has no place in nation where the
very foundations of the government rest
on theory that every man is, in the
eyes Of God, created equal.
A campaign to promote class hatred
in this country can be nothing more
nor less than a campaign to overthrow
the government. By government is not
meant the present administration, nor
any bureau, nor any combination of bur-
eaus or governmental agencies, but the
very form of the nation itself.
This we as Americans could not toler-
ate.

A NEW NATIONAL PARK
[ Alameda TimeS-Star)

The latest addition to the national
park system commentaries a notable
event in the development of the American
nation and at the same time carries the
national domain into section of the
country considerably short on national
park facilitieS-the great plains area of
the Northwest. Located near Beatrice,
Neb., the 160-acre farm of the descend
ants of Daniel Freeman, which has been
purchased for $4,000, is the farm of
the first free homesteader decided to
him by the federal government Is years
ago.
a million migrants from the east and
the Mississippi valley took up their
claims in the years that followed and
the eXpanse between the Mississippi and
the Pacific coast was peopled with
pioneering, resourceful, agrarian democ-
racy. This great westward movement
has been a favorite theme of historians
and still is fertile field as THE Chang
ing West new collection of stimulat-
ing studies by the late Laurence NJ. Lar
son, president Of the American Historical
association, amply demonstrates. A ma
tlonal park to commemorate it and its
wagon trains Of virile men and women is
a fitting addition to the land which all
Americans jointly possess.
Statistics tell us that of the popula-
ton Of the United States here are approx
imately 60,000,000 females and 81 100000
