Washington Observations
No Purge Note Is Found in Presidents
Clever EIectioneerine Speech

mat In Washington. A group was
discussing the decision of a certain
famous and brilliant hostess cele-
brated as a reconteur, to quit the
Capital scene because under pres
ent conditions she no longer ranked
as the cream" of political society.
Somebody suggested the lady might
now appropriately be dubbed the
vanishing cream" Quipped the
transatlantic diplomatic dame:
why not the whipped cream?'"
One Of Americas veteran report
ers who is still in harness, Malcolm
Mcdowell. former secretary of the
Board of Indian Commissioners, has
just returned to Washington to con-
tinue his work as member of the
staff of the Chicago Daily News.
Though already past the diamond
jubilee milepost of IS, Mcdowell will
continue to write feature stories on
special phases Of national life for
Col. Frank Knox's paper. Mac"

In the halcyon days of Carter Har-
rison. Hinky Dink, Bath House John,
Charles T. Yerkes, the youthful Jim

manifesto from Prague addressed
ITO the Whole Civilized World"
Sponsored by the learned societies
of the republic, including scientific,

words:
A true. manly, straightfor-
ward and lasting peace never
issues from the violation of the
weak by treachery and by cow
ardtce. We, the representatives
OF the Czech and Slovak intel
lectual world, declare that we
shall never give up our rights to
our historic soil, to free life upon

able economic development, al
though superior force from
abroad has forced us to admit its
claims. Remember, it is your
duty to support us with all your
powers in this struggle for a real
peace, assuring the life and the
rights of all Bear it in mind
that our fate will overtake you

SocialiSte, named as Belgiums first
Socialist premier last June. Like
Millerand. BRAND, Ramsay Mac
Donald and Mussolini, he swung
right as he took responsibility. He
has suppressed class war and Is
building what he calls authoritarian
democracy" He was one of the
leaders IN Belgiums break from de-
pendence on British or French pro-
lection, long before the peace OF
Munich set adrift the little me too"
powers of Europe. He foresaw a
crack-up which would mean every
nation for itself and the devil take
the hindmost.
He is a big, burly. conspicuous
and talkative statesman, whose
huge, foppy black hat, half SOM
brero and half clerical, portrays
with high visibility his blend Of
democratic and authoritarian poll
cies. There might be an idea for
politicians everywhere-overall and
morning coat, for instance.
Mr.. Spaak, as much as any one
man, dumped Leon Degrells, the
rabid Rexist. who is spelling for
a return engagement, with Bel
GUMS dive into the totaltarian
camp possibly at issue. Mr.. Spaak
says this will never come off. He
says Fis authoritarian democracy
will be limited by the needs of
immediate national renovation and
defense and will bring no recreance
to democratic principles.
He was born in Brussels. the
grandson of Paul Janson, famous
Belgian liberal. Trying to get into
the war at the age of IS, he was
interned by the Germans. He at
tended the University of Brussels
Law School, mounted the barricades
for a few years and went to Par
lament in 1882. And as he gained
power. he became respectable. He
defends the free state against the
encroaching slave state.
