Breeding Cannon-Fodder

THE German government, in the past five years. has
granted more than 100000 marriage aid" loans
of 700 marks to young couples starting out in life,
and calculates that there have been 100000 more
rages and 100000 more children as result of this
policy, that would have occurred at the rate of in
crease prior to 1888. Now the Naz state announces
that couples who when married have worked on the
land since leaving school will not have to repay the
loans until they thirty and if they still farm
ers then, the debt will be cancelled
Coming from nation whose grievance against
the rest of the world is that it has no room for it's
surplus population, this looks the face of it like
fantastic scheme. Why encourage more babies when
there is not enough for the present population?
And when nation is unable to pay its bills Ger
many is constantly pleading poverty to its creditors
but constantly bearing down it's people for more
taxes with which to build up it's military forces how
can it spend money so freely to encourage matri-
mony?
The most plausible answer is that the German
government is anticipating the next and looks
forward to the deaths of another ten or twelve mil
lions Of it's young men, and so is taking precautions
against depopulation by seeing to it that there are
enough children left to carry ON after their fathers
have been sacrificed on the affairs of the War Gods
That is not too far-fetched explanation when it
is remembered that in the Naz scheme of things the
thing. There personal rights liberties left;
everybody is the servant of the Government, whose
will is supreme
There are Americans who honestly believe that this
country needs disciplined and regulated social
system. Well one of the results of regimened and
controlled social system is that young and Wonl-
en- are bribed to marry that they can breed more
children to grow up into cannon-fodder for the great
glory Of the dictators who control their nation.

Easter

CELEBRATED in commemoration of the resurrec-
ton of Christ Easter is the oldest of all the festi
walls in the Christian calendar, even antedating
Christmas as day of special religious observance
This fact arises because Easter is really out
growth of the Jewish Passover, and its adaptation
is explained by church historian thus:
The first Christians, being derived from or init
mately connected with the Jewish church, naturally
continued to observe the Jewish festivals though in
a new spirit The Passover, ennObled by the thought
Of Christ as the true Paschal lamb continued to be
celebrated and became the Christian Easter.
But differences arose over the exact day on which
Easter should be Observed and bitter controversies
occurred among the various Christian groups. The
present method of computing the date Of Easter was
adopted by the Council of Nice III the year 325 which
decreed that Easter should be the first Sunday after
the full following the vernal equinox. But even
this decree failed to general acceptance Of the
date set until after the adoption of the Gregorian
calendar, than twelve centuries later In fact the
Greek church did not accept this date until 1928
that is only within the last few years that the
tire Christian world has celebrated Easter on the
same day.
According to present usage Easter can not occur
earlier than March 22 or later than April 25
One can usually have the last word in an argu-
ment by saying Eyes,
There are two sides to every question-our side
and the wrong side.
The wages of sin sometimes depend on the clever
ness of the sinner.
Anyway, few public enemies live to be eligible for
old age pensions.
An honest confession is good for the SOUL but it is
hard on the reputation.
If other monetary devices fail we might try q re-
turn to the wampum standard.

Exit: Mir. Lewis

Cleveland Plain Deaer) The conspicuous casualty left the field after the Pennsylvania Democrats got through voting in heir primary was John L. Lewis. The party of the national administration may make it's plans for l940 without consulting him. And this is clear gain.
 MT Lewis took his CIO with it's reputed three or million members in the country. bodily into the Pennsylvania primary With Senator Guffey's back ng he bolted the regular party ticket and set up can lidates of his for governor and senator His nominee for governor Thomas Kennedy, now lieutenant governor and secretary treasurer of the United Mine Workers. a CIO organization, For sena- tor to succeed James J. Davis he supported s Davis Wilson mayor of Philadelphia.
 Returns from the election show the defeat of both Kennedy and Wilson. The nominees supported by the regular party organization Jones for governor and Earle for senator were nominated
 This should mean the end of the Lewis menace" in national Democratic politics The next candidate for president can be named two hence without concedng veto power to the CIO chief
 The former mine worker who broke away from the American Federation of Labor to form a more radical rival organization has met small political Ieverses before thiS Never before however had he staked much he did the vote in the Keystone State. Pennsylvania miners were saddled with a special levy to help finance the Kennedy Wilson campaign.
 Though National Chairman Farley curiously in- dorsed the Kennedy half of the Lewis ticket, but preferred Earle to Wilson for senator it is not sup posed that the Roosevelt administration felt that it had any great stake in the primary result Earle is a staunch Rooseveltian So far the record shows Jones is no less a New Dealer than is Kennedy.
 In both the party primaries however one may detect a swing away from radcasm to the conservative point of view. The Republicans refuse 10 recall Clifford Pinchot to the governorship office he has twice held in the past. Instead of Pnchot, they nominate Judge Arthur James former sub-luminary in the Ware political machine which long held Philadelphia in its Republican grasp At the same time the party renominates Senator Davis conservative of conservatives and relic of the days Of Republican power in his state.
 If it was true, as argued in the campaign that Lewis had 'one foot in the Pinchot camp" while retaining the other in Kennedys the CTO leaders repulse is even more impressive than appears the face of the returns Had Pinchot and Jones' Republi can and Democrat both the election may easily believe that Lewis would have tried to deliver his strength to the former governor Republican though he is.
 Even this consolatory possibility is denied him. His choice must be made between rival nominees less radical than the men they defeated
 This conservative trend in a state which was long considered the most conservative of all the larger states will be interpreted by a shadowy fore cast of what is likely to happen in coming national elections

Kentucky's Greater Derby

 Senator Barkey will have to stay in Washington for some time. Governor Happy Chandler his rival has stolen a march him. He has done some pre- iminary work by weekend trips fuller of handshak- ing than talk Now he has gone the stump, spreading great waves of sound from sound-truck The sweet singer of Sonny Boy" and Mother Ma chree IS curiously h as is reported he is asking the voters to send him ito Washington to take the job of that stuffed-shrt, that st-down man. that coat-tail rider"
 Crowds may like to hear a speaker give it to the other fellow hot and heavy, but such rowdy speech about the Democratic leader in the Senate a man of dignity and distinction must be disaseful to Ken tuckans capable of using their brains as well as their ears. Mir Chandler is unjust to himself well as to MT. Barkley. He has been an able Governor He has given the state economical administration and started it on the road out of debt He has a vital issue opposition to the spending policy at Wash ington.
 He has the field to himself, but he has not yet begun to make good use of it. He knows where his danger lies In his aday progress of hand and voice he doesn't forget to tell his hearers Don't make it between Happy Chandler and President Roose- welt" That is just what the is and otherwise it cannot be Sooner later Happy must go easy on the nvectve stop and deal seriously With the ques- cns that cannot be cloaked under struggle of per- sonaliteS
 MT. Barllley has the art of making complex poll cics ineligible to popular audiences Happy Chandler if rolcking and informal must possess the same art. He must have explained his state policy, opposite in many ways to MT. Roosevelt's national policy, that his adorers understood it. thought they did There will be emotion enough on both sides in the campaign Let hope that Happy at least after MT. Barkley gets home, will, to change Fer nando Woods phrase a bit, "pander" a little more to the intellectual element.

AIMING TOWARD COAST LABOR PEACE

The fishing boats finally are the way north after weeks of disagreements and the maritime dls- pute of few weeks ago appears to be at least tenn porary adjusted but down in San Francisco they are taking an action which will be watched with a great deal of eagerness by the entire Pacific Coast including Alaska which IS invariably the victim of all labor troubles on the coast
 group of leaders in the south is setting out to try and establish permanent labor peace the Pa cific Coast. A meeting has been called in San Fran cisco for this coming Friday to find out, if possible, why labor and industry can't adjust its differences so that all will benefit and there will not be this continual cessation of activity.
 At the present time the movement is centered in San Francisco but it is anticipated that if it gains any headway it will spread to the entire coast bringing more favorable conditions all along the western border of the nation
 Reported moving spirits in the plan are a group of San Francisco business men known as the Com mittee of Forthy-three who have interested leaders of the Committee for Industrial Organization and American Federation of Labor the coast. George Wilson President of the CIO Industrial Council in San Francisco and Harry Bridges CIO Director for the coast are among those who proposed the initial meet ing for June 3 Among those on the Committee of Forty y-three" are w Palmer Fuller. paint manufae- turer; Roger Lapham steamship operator; J. w Howell, warehouse operator and several other n- fluential
 Permanent industrial peace is the announced n- tention of the group. Whether 1t will be attained remains to be seen, but certainly it is a laudable attempt at adjusting situation which needs correct ing bady. couple of years ago similar idea was advanced in Seattle but nothing came of it. Perhaps after these long months of disputes both labor and industry will have better attitude At any rate, 1t is worthy effort and in the north along with the rest of the Pacific Coast will watch for results with a great deal of interest.

STILL ROOM FOR INITIATIVE AND GRIT

Youngsters are closing their books this week and preparing for vacation School days for another three months. To large majority of the students it means a holiday With not too much to do But of the older students will be looking around for something to do which will bring them in some money It probably will be comparatively hard to do; will give up after few attempts while others will have what it takes to land something.
 For those who are too easily discouraged and re yealing what we believe is an excellent example of what initiative will do we like to recount the story of young Alfred Ghezz of Nenana. It told in The Empire the other day, but it's worth repeating.
 Three years ago young Ghezz closed up his books, just the lads in Juneau doing this week, and decided to do something about job None was avail able SO undaunted Alfred made himself a job. He acquired old Ford truck rigged it up so it would run and started hauling freight the Richardson Highway. By the end of the summer he had enough money to buy another truck and, after going back to school that winter in the spring he started operations with two trucks Eventually he built his fleet up to four machines; all the time keeping up his school work
 Now Ghezzi, not yet 21, has plans for a real freighting service with some modern equipment He'll probably make good
 This is not suggestion that all the lads start cut this summer to go in the trucking business. Far from it. But it strikes us as an excellent example
