They were buried in a sim.

boy of eight months, played
or slept about the house.
News of the birth became
known when the father went
to Bayamo, 18 miles away,
yesterday to get a doctor be-
cause his wife was i'll.

HOPKINS WOULD PLACE
WPA UNDER CIVIL SERVICE

Harry Hopkins, leftist administrator
of relief agencies this week slipped into
the nations news columns with state
ment Of grayest import
He would like Hopkins said to put
clients of the Works Progress Admin
istration under civil service rules, so
that they will be proud to work for the
government, and not afraid to tell their
neighbors about it.
In other words, Hopkins hopes to put
relief recipients under a system that
would guarantee them their jobs for
lifetime, if they wish. He admitted as
much, it seems to us, when he declared
that there is enough public work to keep
two million WPA workers busy for 20
years.
Is it relief the government is giving
people, or is it permanent employment?
Mr. Hopkins seems to think it is per-
manent employment. If he has his way,
it will be. Unfortunately, he seems to
have forgotten that the rest of us, those
who aren't on government jobs, pay
the Salaries" of those who are.
Or maybe, pretty soon, we'll all be on

FEWER YOUNG CRIMINALS
ENTER SAN QUENTIN
Sentinel

NIldI1OIu oeullHeID
The contemplation of crime as a rule
is a depressing mental pursuit, just as
crime itself is a depressing factor in
human life. The announcement, there
fore, that there has been during the past
two years a definite decline in the num-
Der of young men who enter San Quentin
prison is one that should perk up the
spirits and raise the morale of all Cali
fornians.
Warden Court Smith of San Quentin
is authoI.Jy for the statement that the
first termer population of penal in
sitution has been falling away at the rate
years. In short there are less youths who,
in the parlance of the underworld, make
the big house.
This in spite of the fact that the popu-
lation of the state has increased abnor-
mally since the dust boWlers began to
arrive and in spite of the additional fact
that many new arrivals of youthful years
have landed in prison.
Smith attributes the decline in youth
delinquency to one chief factor, the Civil
ian Conservation Corps. This movement,
he argues, has given adolescent boys and
young men outlet for their surplus ener-
gies together with excellent training in
worthy pursuits. The CCC has aided ma
terially in rehabilitating numerous youths
who stood on the threshold of crime, he
insists, by taking potential criminals off
the streets and into good company, giving
them something to do and seeing that
they do it.

Thoughts for the Day
TAKING THE
WRONG TRACK
Wall Street JournaD

Wall Street JournaD
Remarks by Elmer f Andrews con-
cernlng an Interpretation of the Wage
Hour Act by counsel for the National
Association of Manufactures are not in
consonance with the former gentleman's s
record either before or since he assumed
his present post. Hitherto both his ac-
tions and his words have been distinguish
ed by restraint
The controversy concerns whether or
not the Wage-hour law is supposed to
limit all employees, Salaried and other
wise, to A hours a week at their current
rate of pay, with compensation for per-
lods above that number of hours at time
and half the regular rate of pay. Mr..
Andrews says that it does; Mr.. Gall,
the manufacturers counsel, says that the
time-and-a-half clause is not operative
If the employees are now receiving weekly
pay sufficient to equal or exceed what
they would get if their base pay were
% cents an hour. with 27 1-2 cents above
A hours.
This seems to be moot point. 1t will
remain moot point until the courts have
clarified it, or until Congress chooses by
amendment to make plain its intent
Meanwhile, Mr.. Gall has just as much
the law means as Mr. Andrews has to
publish his Interpretation.
But Mr.. Andrews in effect threatens
Mr. Gall by saying that if employers
persist in thwarting the law by various
devices, Congress will enact more drastic
legislation. What this means in the pres
ent circumstances, is that Mr.. Gall and
presumably all other employers and their
representatives are not to question his
Mr.. Andrews, Interpretation of the law,
or worse will follow.
Mr.. Andrews has made too good a start
in his present post, where tact, patience
and consideration are such prime requis-
ties, to spoil his record with the sort
of talk which has deprived so many gov
ernment administrators of amicable con-
tact with the business men with whom
they have dealings. We hope this was
merely a slip which is not indicative of
any permanent change of heart or of
method.
Imperial Valley press., 1938-11-18
BUT WHY MAKE
IT OFFICIAL?

Most people in the United States feel
just about as President Roosevelt does
about Nazi persecution of Jews.
We wonder, though, how many of them
favor their governments official critic
ism of the German policies.
The Nazis have condoned inhuman
practices that smack of historic inquisi-
tions; they have dealt civilization a Sc
we're blow and turned their backs on the
teachings of Christ. They have demon
strated governmental cruelty without
parallel in modern history.
Worldwide protests have resulted.
Americans, together with the peoples
of many other lands, have been aroused
10 indignation. Americans as individuals
have voiced their feelings in no uncer-
tain terms.
And we believe they are right in feel
ing so.
We do, however. believe there is very
grave question about the wisdom of the
United States, as nation. voicing Off
cial criticism of the German government.
The beliefs of our people were sufficient
~ well known, we think, to have made
such an official criticism unnecessary.
The United States did not join the
League of Nations; it has steadfastly
refused to take any part in the internal
diplomatic workings of European ma
tions. Our part, historically, has been
that of an observer. Most Americans
have been satisfied with this role They
want no part of Europe's official trou-
bles
Now, by criticizing the internal policies
OF a foreign power, this nation has been
catapulted into the the midst of the Eu-
ropean diplomatic struggle
We are officially on record in matter
that affects America and Americans on
ly as their feelings are touched, but
which affects directly the internal work
ings of another nation. We have departed
from our traditional policy of isolation
1t is little wonder that the wisdom of
such official departure from custom is
a matter of doubt
Once before the United States, under
Wilson, tried to show the world the right
way to go, but the trail was lost Are we
to try it again?

first socialistic government in the
history of Great Britain. The
event created a sensation. When

King how he felt about this drastic
change in the government of the

is reported to have said.

I met at a party in Paris last
summer a young woman who had d

she declared that her father hao
never once told her not to do this
and that. He used a wiser and
more subtle method He would
say to her. Il have learned from
experience that if you do this, you
will be sorry for it. 1t doesn't pay
not in the long rum" or he would
say, L have found out that If you
do this and that, you will be glad
of it. In the long run. it will get
you precisely what you want
She said that that method had
worked wonders in making her
want to do as her father suggested.
Why dcn't you try it on your
children or on your own par

not of what you want. but of what
they want.

There are enough moral issues in
