Bankers Must Fight.
"Never should the American
Bankers Association remain silent
when politicians are spending the
country into bankruptcy. we must
take the battle to our depositors.
We must make them realize that 1t
is their right: that 80 per cent Of
the assets of the country belong
to them.
ITO the proposition that the
worthy needy must be taken care
of, the American Bankers Associ-
alton is sincerely and whole heart
edly committed. But we must not
forget that the destruction of sav-
ings and the starvation of produc-
ton mean the loss of capacity to
take care of the needy; that it is
the thrifty citizens and not the Gov
ernment that must produce the
money for this purpose"
In support of his argument, Mr..
Adams quoted two Presidents of the
United States, Thomas Jefferson
and Franklin D. Roosevelt.

The labor leader said he plans to

formed will offer support and relief
to all prosecuted groups, opposition

ness I point out to the Congress
the profound effect of this fact (the
accumulated deficit of $4,000, ,0OO, ,OOO)
on our national economy. 1t has
contributed to the recent collapse OF
our banking structure. 1t has ac-
centuated the stagnation of the
economic life of our people,"
Later he quoted Jefferson:
II place economy among the first
and most important virtues and
public debt as the greatest of dan
gers to be feared. To preserve our
independence we must not let our
rulers load us with perpetual debt.
We must make our choice between
economy and liberty or profusion

ROME, Nov. 15.-The dark-eyed
Princess Maria of Savoia, youngest
of King Vittorio Emanuel's daugh-
ters, soon will wed Prince Louis of
Bourbon Parma, it has been an
nounced.
The couple met about a year ago
at house party in Tuscny.
The engagement announcement
ended years of rumors which Ital-
ians spread as they watched with
interest matchmaking efforts on be-
half of the strikingly attractive
princess. One of these rumors dis
counted by high Fascists, was that
she would wed Adolf Hitler. An
other taken more seriously was that
she would marry Archduke Otto of
Hapsburg, now an exile from Aus
tria, who is a nephew of Prince
Louis.
The wedding will give the House
OF Savoia new tie with the his
toric House of Bourbon in addition
to links with the royalty of Hesse,
Belgium. Bulgaria, France and the
former Austro-Hungarian empire
Prince Eugenio of Savoia- Genoa
recently married Princess Lucia of
Bourbon in Bavaria, and the Duke
of Aosta, the Kings cousin and
Ethiopian viceroy, is married to the
Bourbon Princess Anne.
Perhaps the most outstanding
royal links of the present members
of the Kings family are those of
his daughter Giovanna, who is mar
ried to King Boris of Bulgaria, and
his son, Crown Prince Umberto, who
is married to Princess Marie Jose of
Belgium.
Other links are with royal families
of -eXistant states. Queen Elena
was Montenegrin princess. Prin-
cess Mafalda married Prince
Philippe Of Hesse, now a German
province.

Church Has Jagged
In a New World,
Baptists Are Told
Dr.. &. H. Pruden Talks
To Convention
Delegates Here

Science is building a new physi-
cal world, but we have not kept pace
along spiritual lines DR.. Edward
H. Pruden, pastor of the First Bap-
tist Church of Washington, de-
clared today in an address before
the District of Columbia Baptist
convention at Calvary Baptist
Church.
"The world is still full of racial,
economic, religious and interna-
tional barriers, war clouds still ap-
pear upon the horizon of our time,
and hatred and suspicion seem pres
ent in far too many areas" the
speaker said.
He declared that when Christ
commissioned His disciples to go into
the world and share the gospel with
men everywhere he committed to
their hands the task of creating a
new spiritual world. These first dis
ciples made great progress toward
this goal, but during the last 1900
years we have not built very nobly
upon the foundations which they
laid"
The delegates were welcomed to
Calvary Baptist Church in a brief
address by the Rev. William S.
Abernethy, after which reports were
heard from the member churches,
all of which announced progress in
increasing membership and reducing
debts.
A more highly educated ministry
and a greater percentage of Baptist
young people in colleges were de-
scribed as pressing needs of the
Baptist denominat ton in an opening
session address last night by DR..
Frank w. Padelford of New York,
executive secretary of the Northern
Baptist Board of Education. Today's
meeting was held at Calvary Baptist
Church.

former president of Mercer Uni
verslty, Baptist institution in
Macon, Ga, presented to the au-
dience Walter T. LaWton, deacon in
the First Baptist Church and de-
scendant of co-worker with

WHAT REALLY IS
HAPPENING

(The California Publisher)
When Neal Van Sooy, publisher of the
Azusa Herald, told his readers What
really is Happening" in his editorial col
umns August 4, he probably didn't ap-
preciate fully the merit of his efforts.
But August 8 full recognition to his
column was given by the Chicago Daily
Tribune when it selected the editorial
for its daily feature as the Editorial of
the Day"
The part of the editorial picked up
by the Tribune follows:
The question is often raised, why is
it that the papers will carry two stories
side by side-one from China and the
other from Japan-each giving a differ
ent version of the same battle?"
The answer is rather simple, but hard
for those living in America, one of the
last strongholds of true freedom of the
press, to understand.
You don't get" news in China or Jap
an, you take" it. You don't go out to get
a story yourself, you simply take the
story that is handed to you by a govern
ment bureau. So that you can't find out
what is actually happening, but only
what the government wants you to know.
Therefore when both the Chinese and
japanese claim a victory on the same
day, it's because their spokesman assert
it; when the Spanish Loyalists and Reb
els both announce the capture of the
same city, it's because their headquarters
proclaim it; when the news dispatches
from Tokyo and Moscow contradict each
other, it's because the two representative
governments fail to agree.
And even if reporter should be am
bilious and aggressive enough to get a
true story by independent means, he
would not be allowed to send it over the
government-censored telephones or ca
bles. So that the best news service
such as Associated Press or United Press
can do is to send both stories and let
the reader take his pick or strike happy
medium.

LET'S SETTLE THIS
ONE WAY OR ANOTHER

Protests from the United States to
Mexico have become increasingly firm
in demanding reparation for oil and
farm lands seized under appropriation
decree but a show of force will be neces-
sary before Mexico will do more than
shrug a complacent "Quien Sabe?"
Informed observers back from Mexico
City report a prevailing attitude of good
natured disbelief toward the seriousness
of Secretary Hull's notes demanding
reparation. mo one takes the u. S.
warnings seriously" said one traveller,
who added, "MeXicans are past masters
at diplomatic evasion and they will never
make a move toward reparation until
the United States have backed up de-
mands with an uncompromising show of
military strength"
Whether or not this attitude is strictly
true, it revives the "Bala California
purchase idea and adds as aura of prac-
ticability to a scheme which heretofore
has been too close to the "crack-pot"
category Reports from Mexico City in
dicate the government treasury is not
too well filled. Reports from abroad
indicate nations whose nationals lost
their property in appropriation DEGREES
are dissatisfied to the extent of making
Washington, D. c., uncomfortable. A
certain amount of United States prestige
is at stake, for the Monroe Doctrine, in
effect, dictates that Washington will be
the Judge in disputes in the western hem
isphere and Washington will be respon-
sible.
Regardless of how it is settled, the
question of reparation to foreigners
whose property was appropriated should
be definitely settled one way or another.
1t should not be allowed to drift into an
issue as dead as the war debts"

WEATHER REPORTS
AND ADVERTISING

Every year, Imperial Valley through
its Board Of Trade and chambers of
commerce spends tidy sums on advertis-
ing. The general objective is to inform
as much of the country as often as pos
sible, about our existence and our merits.
One of the best possible advertisements
we could obtain, would be the location
there of the governments meteorological
station which is now in Yuma. Daily, the
big metropolitan newspapers throughout
the country print temperature readings
at many prominent points in the country,
from New York to Miami, and from Sc
attic to San Diego. Most of these points
are major population centers. Strangely
enough, however, there are a few smaller
communities, and Yuma is outstanding
In this way, the name of Yuma is daily
carried across the country. 1t would
seem we'll within reason that this station
is located at Ell Centre, the heart of a
great farming community of 10000 peo-
pie as compared to Yuma which is the
center of much smaller area. The pub
lication of valley temperatures regularly
throughout the land should call wide
attention to Imperial Valleys possibili-
ties as a winter resort.

Uncle Sam will hand out half a
billion dollars in another spectac-
ular attempt to spend the nation
back to prosperity. Such a huge
stream of dollars will have a pow
erful effect on trade and industry
this Fall.
Farmers Dollar Buys More
There are other factors that will
give business a real impetus in the
months ahead. Cash receipts from
bountiful crops is an important
one. 1 estimate that farm buying
power will be off only about 10
per cent from a year ago despite
the heartbreaking crash in farm
prices. We are having bumper
harveSts. Those extra bushels OF
wheat, bales of cotton, and pounds
of butter will help to offset low
er prices. Also the dollars they
bring in will purchase more goods
today than they would have pur,-
chased a year ago The farmei
1888 dollar will buy as much as
$1.O8 would have bought in 1887.
Another bullish factor is more
money for wage earners. Rising
industrial activity has already
lifted the buying power of mill
towns and factory cities. I esti-
mate that $25000,000 more per
week is now flowing into pay en-
velopes than three months ago.
Much of this money is being used
to clear up back bills, but it will
soon be flowing into new sales. Re-
tail trade right now is less than 10
per cent below year ago in dol
lar volume, while in unit volume it
is running along stride-for- stride
with last Labor Day.
Heavy Retail Trade Expected
Hence, I am bullish on business
in general and retail trade in par
ticular for this Fall. Prices Of
goods are attractive and people
will have the cash to buy them.
Aggressive merchants should have
one of the best Autumns on rec
ord. Statesmen should have an op-
portunity 10 make up for the lean
months of the Spring. Newspapers
should see a real squirt in their
advertising lineage. Wage-wOrkers
can expect a fuller weeks work
Salary workers need fear no furth.
er pay cuts. Security holders shoul
see the prices of selected issues
steady to higher. Investors should
receive more generous dividend
payments later this Fall.
So my advice is: Get busy and
make the most of the opportunities
ahead!

Bruce Carton Says
- Antagonisms: an Asset to Tyranny

ident Roosevelt was read to the
annual encampment of the Jewish
War Veterans of the United States.
The message went as follows:
The American people need no
reminder of the services which
those of the Jewish faith have
rendered our nation. 1t has been
a service with honor and distinc-
ton. History records that your
people have played q great and
commendable part in the defense
of Americanism during the World
War and prior wars, and have
contributed much in time of peace
toward the development and pres
ervation of the glory and romance
of our country and our democratic
form of gvernment.
In these Two pronouncements
from the heads of two great ma
tionS the divergent natures f tyr
amy and freedom are unmistak-
ably revealed. 1t is not merely
that the one is a harsh order OF
expulsion and the other a warm
and friendly greeting. The very
natures of the two kinds of soci-
ETY. are involved.
A tyranny needs a Scapegoat.
There must be some one thing, or
some one element, which can be
blamed for things; something on
which the discomfort and blind
antagonism of the people can be
focused. German tyranny decid-
ed to use the Jew for that scape-
goat; bobbing along as the tail to
Hitler'S kite, Italian tyranny has
decided to follow suit.
In a free state, the exact re-
verse of all this is true. Freedom
must minimize the natural antag-
onisms of its people; it must give
them a genuine and effective out
let for their discomfort instead of
inventing fake one.
Free peoples don't want tradi-
tional rivalies and old suspicious
sharpened. They have to get along
with each other, and the easiest
way is to be neighborly and let
OLD hatreds die.
Does anyone need to ponder
very long over this contrast before
deciding which is the pleasanter
sort Of society to live in?
Imperial Valley press., 1938-09-13

Never was the contrast between
freedom and tyrany sharper
than it is today. Hardly an issue
of a dairy newspaper appears
without pointing it up.
One days paper recently con-
tanned two stories which, when set
side by side, express their own
moral
One of these stories came from
Rome. 1t told how a decree of
Mussolini's cabinet had ordered all
Jews who moved into Italy since
the World War to leave within six
months. The measure applied to
citizens and non-citizens alike and
asserted that the Jews represent
"a dangerous factor in the spirit
ual and material life of the ma
ton"
The other story came from De-
troit, where a message from Pres

HUMAN OBSOLESCENCE
(Riverside Press)


The most dangerous age for men, ac-
cOrding to DR.. W. R. Brown, a British
psychologist, is about 80. 1t is somewhat
like adolescence in reverse. That is the
time when men, especially if they feel
that they have not been successful, are
likely to come to turning point. Then
they worry and brood, and perhaps go
to psychoanalysts to have their mental
conflicts ironed out.
For one thing" says Dr. Brown,
sometime between 45 and so a man
suddenly realizes that what he is, he is
with no turning back. He has passed
the point where it is easily possible to
master new trade or profession, begin
a new family, or move out of his accus-
toned environment" And it jolts him.
This crisis perhaps comes earlier in
America than in England, with the faster
pace of life here and the growing disin-
clination of employers to hire men over
so.
1t is a great thing to be flexible in
mind and body, to feel that you can start
over again, that life begins anew every
morning. But few can carry this spirit
past middle age.
