the Communist party had some 5,00o,-
900 votes.
At this point Hitler came to the
front. He said he had an antidote
for Communism. He called his anti
dote NaN-ism. Hitler distinguished
Nazi-ism from Communism, saying
that Nazi-ism would protect and per-
petuate the system Of private owner
ship of property. Those in Germany
who liked the system Of private owner
ship got behind Hitler. Hitler and
Nazi-ism got the seats Of power.
Battle Of Ideals.
Not only in Germany but else
where throughout the world the con-
test between these two ideals. Com
munism and Nazi-ism, has gone on.
In some countries the ideal opposed to
Communism has not called itself Nazi-
ism. and in detail varies from Nazi-
ism. In Italy it is Fascism. In the
different nations In which the ideal
arises it varies according to local Gus
toms and traditions
For 20 years, throughout the whole
world, the contest between Communism
and FasciSm or NaZi-ism has gone on.
Prevailing, Communism has lost. It
lost in Germany. 1t lost in Italy. It
lost IN some minor European countries.
In the present civil war between the
two ideals in Spain, the ideal Of
NaZt-ism or Fascism seems now likely
to win. Everywhere the ideal Of Ease
ism or Naziism is on the March.
Many Lessons for America.
What is the lesson for America?
There are many. A somber one is that
the American ideal of society and
government Is everywhere in retreat.
1t has retreated until all that is left
is America itself. Great Britain, France
and few small countries.
For 20 years, though government
everywhere has been in q ferment of
change, nowhere to speak Of has the
change been in the direction of the
American type, representative democ-
racy. Although for over a century
preceding 1917 every change of gov
ernment anywhere had been in the
direction of the American model, now
all the change Is away from that
model.
In the worldwide contest between
the Communist ideal and the Fascist
or Nazi one, the role of represent
ative democracy began as that of neu-
trail bystander.
In the worldwide contest between
the ideal of Communism and that of

simply going to add more disputes to
labor relations and defeat the original
purpose Of the Wagner law, which was
to set up a board that would by its
rulings and decisions tend to diminish
the number of labor disputes.
Manufacturers Plan Faulty.
Not long ago, the National Associa-
ton Of Manufa acturers declared in
their labor platform that employers
should not be required to deal with
unions or with workers who engage in
unlawful acts and this correspondent
took the position that this was faulty
proposal because employers would then
be setting themselves up as judges Of
what was or what was not an unlawful
act by workers. My thought was that
the Federal and State governments
are able now to exclude union leaders
or followers who engaged in violence
from the benefits of any employment
relationship, but that the illegality
itself has to be determined by govern
mental agencies and not by employers.
Here is case, however, in which the
National Labor Relations Board ON
cially acknowledges that there have
been unlawful acts, but 1t insists
nevertheless that an employer must
be compelled to furnish employment
to those who have become lawless.
Certainly the Labor Board has handed
on platter to the National Associa-
ton of Manufacturers the best ammu-
milton it has ever had for breaking
down the Labor Board and the Wag-
ner act, too. It is from the viewpoint
of friends Of the collective bargaining
law as we'll as its enemies that this
latest decision Is regrettable. The
higher courts are undoubtedly going
to be asked to review it.

achieve clearness.
In Russia in February, 1917, a rev.
olution took place. It was the same
kind of a revolution that had been
taking place here and there through
out the world for over hundred years.
It was a revolution which moved away
from monarchy and moved in the
direction of the American type Of
government, representative democ-
racy. Had events shaped with that
February. 1917, revolution, America
would have said complacently that
here was another country which has
adopted the American ideal of gov
eminent.
Communism Preached.
But. some months after the
February. 1917, revolution, occurred
another which brought Communism.
Communism had many distinguishing
traits The most important to mention
at this point is denial of the right Of
the individual to own property-Com-
munism said all property must be
owned by the State.
Communism, once it had established
itself in Russia, set out to conquer
the world. Emissaries and money sent
out by the Communist heads in Russia
appeared in practically every country.
Partly because Of the energy of the
Communist emissaries, partly because
OF the energy of the chaos that was a
consequence of the Great War,
Communism made progress. In Ger

Suffers Broken Leg When Motor
lied Car Strikes Rock On Track

]. Robert Thrasher, of Deer Park,
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad en-
ploye, sustained a broken right leg
and numerous cuts and bruises on
Tuesday morning, when a motorized
car upon which he was riding near
Moorefeld, West Va, struck large
rock that had fallen down the noun
tainside onto the track.
The stone, which weighed about
two hundred pounds, was lying on the
track just beyond a sharp curve and
the motor was upon the object almost
before it was seen by Mr.. Thrasher
and the other men riding with him.
The impact was so great that all the
men were tossed about, Mr.. Thrasher
striking upon his leg and shoulder,
breaking his leg in two places. He
was taken to Memorial Hospital, in
Cumberland, for surgical treatment.
None of the other men were seriously
injured.

PROSPECTS BRIGHT FOR
EARLY SPRING IN STATE
Forecaster Says, However, "COn-
ditions Can Change Suddenly"

Maryland's prospects for an early
spring are bright, Forecaster John w.
Weeks, Baltimore, of the State
Weather Bureau, ventured to state
this week, but left a way open for
beating hasty retreat by adding,
"But conditions can change suddenly"
During a normal winter the coolest
weather usually occurs during the
first week of February, but during an
abnormal winter we might have our
coolest weather during the last part
of the month";" he said
81 should say the probabilities are
that we will have no more severe
weather this month and ordinarily we
don't have much cold weather in the
month of March"
Whether or not Forecaster Weeks
knows all there is to know about the
weather, is a question, as his prog
nostications usually concern Balti-
more and vicinity and do not follow
through in this county. Mr.. Weeks
also perdicted a snow (which looks
like an old-timer," either beginning
Tuesday evening, February Is, or on
February 16. This did not materialize
here in Garrett county.
Isabella, the Garrett county cater
pillar, was claiming victory in her
prediction of snow for last week, but
was a little over-enthusiastic, perhaps,
on the quantitative side, as she pre-
dicted heavy snow. In Garrett coun-
ty it was mostly ice, but there were
snow furries in other parts Of the
State.
A note to the Forestry Department
in Baltimore was received last week,
"Snow today in Garrett county. Very
truly yours, Isabelle"
Preceding the signature of Isabella
was that of Charles N. Butler, project
supervisor at CCC camp near Deer
Park, who got out his calipers and
slide rule and made weather predic-
tions on the basis of color markings on
Pyrrarctia Isabella, the tiger-moth
caterpiller.

SCOUT JAMBOREE HELD AS
ANNIVERSARY WEEK ENDS
Troop 3 Wins First Prize With
Miniature BivOuac Camp

A Scout Jamboree was held Thurs
day evening in the school auditorium.
This meeting celebrated the inaugu-
ration of the newly established Po-
tomac Council with headquarters still
in Cumberland, but district headquart-
ers in Oakland. Arrangements are
being made making it possible to pur-
chase official equipment from one of
the local merchants.
The following troops were repre-
sented Troop No. and Troop No. 3,
of Oakland, and lone Scout Neighbor
Patrol from Altamont. Other troops
had been invited.
The program was opened by Henry
McComas, Jr., scoutmaster of Troop
No. 3, who made short address on
scouting, followed by Rev. George F.
Packard, chairman of the Jamboree,
who announced the presentation of
four skits by the patrols of Troop No.
1 under the supervision of their re-
spective patrol leaders.
Following this, competition was ar
ranged between the scouts in fire
building, first aid, knot tying and sig
mailing. The judges were L. M. Fraley,
DR.. N. I. Broadwater, Harley Dawson,
and Grover C. Stemple. Awards were
presented to the winners by H. A.
Loraditch as follows: James Helbig,
troop 8, LIST in first aid; William
Close, troop 8, 1st in fire building;
Ray Lambert, troop 3, LIST in signal
ing; Lewis Naylor, troop l, LIST in
knot tying.
Each of the two Boy Scout troops
and the Lone Scout neighborhood pa
troll had exhibits. The lone Scouts of
Altamont presented fine showing in
horticulture and botany. Troop No. l
presented charts on patrol competl-
ton, test progress, conventional signs
and knot boards. Troop No. 3 dis
played a bivouac camp in miniature,
first aid tents and signal towers.
The latter troop won first place for
its exhibit, which was displayed in
Gortner's store window on Saturday.
Assistant Scoutmaster Ralph M.
Luman of Troop No. 1, invested Glenn
Wood and James Lake, two Lone Scout
bows from Altamont. Following this,
Rev. George F. Packard officially
closed the first Jamboree of the new
district council.
