QUITS ACTION AGAINST EDITOR

Hartley W. Barclay, editor of a trade magazine
Mill and Factory, defed subpoena duces tecum
of the National Labor Relations Board. He charged
that the board was interfering with the freedom
of the press and that he would pay no attention to
it. The board was insistent that he should come
with all his records charging that he had written
his criticism under influence.
This case drew widespread attention and the
NLRB came in for storm of vigorous denuncia-
ton for its attempt to NEEDLE with magazine,
Congress was asked to investigate the boards mo-
tives in this affair. Barclay has never appeared
before the board and the board has dropped the
matter with no blare of trumpets 1t hopes that
the incident having been closed by it will be
hushed.
In point of fact the NLRB has taken water.
plenty of it, for it was emphatic in declaring that
Barclay would be examined if it were necessary
to bring him and his records by force. 1t is much
of victory for freedom of the press, much of a
defeat for the high handed NLRB.-Charleston

YOU GO TO SCHOOL TO LEARN
nv BRUCE CATION


This is an especially apt time to THINK
little about what changes in the tides OF
education are brought about by height
ened political rivalries, strengthened eco
nomic barriers, intensified international ILL
will, and wars.
Deteriorations and pewersions in educa-
tional systems are not effected by decree
alone The faculty mind, the student mind,
the aggregate intelligence of the scholastic
field, absorb the emotional celebrations OF
the world at large. and the characteristics
of ar entire system become so changed in
lime as to make it unrecognizable. The
supposedly clustered soul is after all not
lutte Theoretically sealed.
The values of liberal arts courses in col
leges as opposed to specialized training,
,srneral courses in high schools as opposed
20 technical courses, are the subject of con-
adorable dispute at present in the light OF
,hrir ultimate practical benefits to the av-
erage man. But that there is place for
.hoih'. that the world needs men of
laer1ing as well as men of training :. is
uudenied. Education as an instrument
whereby a man may enlarge the scope of
his cultural experience as a means to at
lining simply a greater degree of pleas
tire out of life is also still accepted as one
afttne assets of civilized existence.
Tie opportunities of this kind of an edu-
"alion are in especial danger of being
abrdged in periods of widespread inter-
national ill-will. The availability of courses
in foreign languages, foreign hteratures, is
particularly subject to destruction. You
may remember the disappearance of high
scn7ol German courses 20 years ago.
T,ng, courses were not abolished in some
>chools, but few students took them where
thav remained. You read now that the
popularity of German rose in New York's
schools after the war, to a postwar high
pnint in 1884, and then started going down
steadily, and is still going down.
Language is a cultural asset, whether
Nazism is or is not. At present the chances
for German look as if they're rapidly
approaching the vanishing point. Will
Goethe be universally unfathomable in
this country few years from now?

BEHIND THE SCENES
I'M WASHINGTON
BY RODNEY BUTCHER

WJASHINGTON.--ThC SprlnE
w primaries are almost upon us
and between now and lae Septem-
Der the voters and the politicians
will nominate candidates for the
entire House of Representatives, q
third Of the Senate seats and gov
ernorships in 33 states.
Democratic primaries arc excit-
ing the most interest, Since they

conventions.

ties and replace anti-New Dealers
with pro-Roosevelt men is in
volved in various contests and as
the campaign year wears on one
is likely to hear of sporadic at
tempts at Republican-Democratic
coalitions.
Here's an outline of primary
fights to be settled in the near
future:
ILLINOIS, April Gov. Henry
Horner is backing Congressman
Scott Lucas against u. S. Dis
trict Attorney Mike Igoe, who. is
supported by the Kelly-Nash ma
chine Of Chicago, for Democratic
nomination to the Senate seat now
held by William II. Dieterich.
The Roosevelt administrations
most spectacular part in this eight
has been its failure to back Diete-
rich, who has been loyal in the
pinches.
Igoe is supported by Labor's
Non-Partisan League and reports
reaching Washington indicate he
has the best chance. AS for Re-
publican candidates, Washington
may or may not get to know more
about them after the November
election. 49,

FOREIGN INVESTMENTS

In view Of what is happening
in China and Of the eXpropria-
ton (confscation) by the MeXi-
can government of oil properties
owned by Americans, wouldn't it
seem wise for our government to
warn all Americans against max
ing investments abroad ?-particu-
larly in those countries not con-
trolled by nglo-SaXonS. Foreign
investments are forever. causing
our people losses and our govern
ment embarrassment. While 1t Is
our policy to protect. our nation
ais wherever they may be, ought
we to be forced into conflict with
a foreign power just because some
citizen of ours wishes to Specu-
late abroad? II might be thought
that foreign investments could be
protected by treaty. But the day
for honoring treaties seems to
have gone by. The greatest liars
today arc not individual persons
but individual nations. If any Of
our nationals choose to take their
money abroad and invest it they
should do so at their own risk.

HIGH IDEALS: As business

whatnot, did you ever become pos
sessed with the ambition to in
stall typewriter so as to facili-
tate your business? Perhaps you
couldn't see the results, but they
were awful. Words were miSspell-
cd; punctuation was omitted; par
agraphing was hideous and spac-
ing was in the crime class.
The typewriter reveals or en-
poses all your grammatical and
mechanical delinqucncies. It's SIM
ply awful. Better go on with your
longhand, cumbersome way, so
far as appearances are concern
cd, ending each sentence with a
dash; pausing in the midst of a
sentence with a dash; beginning
long words you don't know how
to spell and finishing with dash,

JOE DUSEK TOPS
WRESTLING CARD

If it's not one Dusek then it's
another, and this Thursday night
Promoter Joe Turner, the wreSt-
ling impreSario of Washington,
will present the youngster of the
roughouse boys of Omaha, Neb.-
Joe-in the feature match on his
program at the w Street arena.
Joe is scheduled to exchange grips
with Gino Garibaldi, who, Incl
dentally, comes from wrestling
family which also boasts four
grapplerS.
Both performers are Of the
rough school, and should provide
plenty of exciting moments for
the local mat fans.
Dolly Dalton, the Tigress from
Atlanta, Ga, and Babe Murphy,
Of the Coast, both winners on last
weeks card, will return to mix it
up in the special. match. Miss
Dolly "stole" the show last week,
and it Is expected that she may
turn the trick again. She is fast,
clever, knows all the holds of the
sport and certainly loses little time
in applying them.
Promoter Turner completed the
remainder Of the card, with four
other time-limit events listed. Ed
Newman, conqueror Of Mike Ma
zurki, meets Bibber Mccoy, who
decisioped Cliff Olsen but lost to
Ernie Dusek; John Katan, an old
favorite here, battles Ed Ribbons,
the ex-college mailman, while Ed
MeSk faces Ed Cook, and Hank
Barber tangleS with Red Ryan.
