In the third quarter, Block outplayed Block B,

INTOLERANCE THE WORLDS
GREATEST CURSE

If il weren't for those accusing date
lines in the daily newspapers that say
as plainly as type can that 1T happened
today. We might almost believe that we
were reading a chapter out of a history
of the middle ages when we scan an
account Of modern Germany'S perSecu-
ton of the Jewish race.
Even realizing that such things are
happening today. ii is hard to make our
selves admit that in this modern world
of ours civilization is SO little advanced
that the horrors of the Spanish inquiSi-
tion are not in the pale of things now
impossible
Take these bare facts:
A nation has fined" every member of
the Jewish race within its borders be-
cause one Jew killed an embassy attache
in a foreign capital. Germany levied
a S406000,000 fine against the Jewish
race in Germany for the murder of a
diplomatic secretary.)
The same nation has ordered that no
member Of the prosecuted race can en-
gage in any retail or wholesale business.
In addition it has decreed that no
Jew can attend any theater. lecture, mo-
tiOn picture or other public gathering.
The whole thing is bewildering to Am
orleans. We cannot understand why such
persecution should be practiced. We can
not fathom the motives; we cannot even
vision the racial background that makes
such practices possible. And from Ger
many we obtain no reasons only bitter
TRADES against the entire Jewish race.
Yet perhaps if we look deeply enough
we can see in Naz persecution of Jews
the real cause Of unrest throughout most
of the world today.
1t is intolerance.
1t is nothing new they are doing in
Germany. 1t is the oldest Of mans sins,
limited to no race and no creed. The
Jews centuries ago, displayed the same
intolerance when they crucified the man
who preached against it. Jesus Christ.
The Spanish Catholics displayed it in
the Spanish InquiSition The Moslems
and the Crusaders displayed it. The
Puritans and the Romans were equally
guilty Of it.
Tolerance. 1t seems such a simple thing
to achieve; yet it has never been achiev-
ed by the world as a whole. 1t would
solve SO many problems; yet man keeps
looking for another solution.
The world will have solved most of
its problems when it is intolerant of only
one thing-intOlerance itself.

SOMETHING FOR THE
CIVIC LEADERS TO DO

The FL Centre chamber of commerce,
it seems to us. could do the community
a lot of good by working fer establish
ment here Of a full time weather bureau.
At present temperatures and wind
records are kept at the city water plant,
and during the winter the federal govern
ment maintains its fruit-frost service.
Both are exceptionally efficient organiza-
tions, bringing great benefits TO the COM
munity. Neither, however, keeps the de-
tailed records. nor has available the COM
plete weather service that would be had
through regular, full time weather
bureau.
Imperial Valley. it seems to US, is big
enough now to merit this full service.

AFTER As YEARS
IN CALIFORNIA

lOroville Mercury -Register)
They tell Us that for II years the re
publicans have had their man in the
gubernatorial chair at Sacramento Ger
tainly il can do no harm to have change.
Too long diet of just the same thing.
particularly if it is inclined to be rich,
brings on bilious condition. The cleo
tion of Olson as Governor will be con-
Sidered pill by many, but it may bring
on a healthful reaction for that very
reason.
1t wouldn't do to have 45-year reign
in Washington by any one party. No
matter what our politics, the most of Us
would vote to unSeat such a regime. Most
of us voted to do that in California, and
we should look upon the result with
equanimity. for it hardly can fail to be
wholesome.
There will be a great cleaning out of
office holders in Sacramento and
throughout the state. Some very good
public servants will get the AK. The
calibre of the new governor will be deter
mined by the size of the men and wom-
en- he names to take their places and by
the judgment with which he leads the
legislature in the enactment of laws.
We wish him an entirely successful
term of office and trust that it will be
as successful for the state as for him.
We shall watch the unfolding of more
liberal policy with great interest and
shall hope that liberality can be had
without vindictivenesS towards those who
opposed it.
In short, we have confidence in the
future of California and in the ability of
its people to choose proper leaders. We
feel that men elected to high office are
apt to rise to meet their opportunities
with a suitable reverence for the respon-
sibilities involved.

Famous Sayings

Before this re-armament talk
goes any farther. the American
people ought to take time out to
decide exactly whom and what
they are going to re-arm against.
President Roosevelt speaks of an
army Of 100000 men. Plans for a
substantially enlarged fleet are be-
ing discussed. Congress Will un-
doubtedly be asked to consider
"draft-capital" plans which. in the
event Of war. would turn the land
into the tightest of totalitarian
states.
We can't hope to discuss these
things intelligently until we know
precisely what we want our arma-
ments to do.
