ANCIENT CROP CONTROL
AND THE MODERN TREND
{ Riverside Press J

That other people in older times have been
bothered by crop surpluseS and moved IL
Official ways to check on the problem, is the
assertion Of DR.. Arthur Patch Mckinley. A
professor of Latin at UCLA it is DR.. McKinleys
hobby to match current political situations With
those of ancient times.
The recent signing OF another crop control
bill recalls to his mind Pliny's story OF one
Chresimus who in the old Roman days, from
very small plot of ground raised good deal
more than his fellows could from the largest
farms in the district. At the time the obvious
assumption was that he was profiting by sor-
cery and he was cited by the town commits
sioner to appear for trial on the charge.
He brought to the trial all of his farming
apparatus and his helpers It is related. His
tools were stout strong and OF first-rate quality
his equipment and his men all in prime condi-
ton These he told the citizens of Rome, were
his implements of magic; but as for his midnight
toll early rising and fatigue. these I cannot
exhibit to your view
Promptly this early attempt of government
to discourage increased production came to
nought for by unanimous vote of the people
Chresimus was acquitted. None however, sug-
gested that the industrious farmer be paid
for not raising so much, the UCLA professor
sagely points out.

Bruce Cation Says
How Not to be Entertaining

rejection of all ma
terial bearing the fainteSt scent of
an idea.
1t might be good to suggest ina
tactful way to motion picture pro-
ducers that evidence of some in
tent beyond the production of en-
tertainment in it's more shallow
sense does not necessarily imply
the presence of propaganda. 1t
might be good to remind them
that Broadway few years ago
discovered, greatly to its profit
that theater-goers long under
nourished on theatrical whipped
desserts would stampede a show
that served them something they
could get their teeth into.
1t might be good to remind them
also that effort toward no end but
entertainment in superficial
sense is as likely to produce eX-
ceedingly dull fare as effort to-
ward no end but propagandizing
Entertainment is more than skin
deep.
1t is to be hoped that a propa-
ganda phobia in Hollywood will
not consign to the ash can the
kinds of ideas that brought us
such pictures as All Quiet on the
Western Front, Dead End, zola,
The Man Who Reclaimed His
Head. and WinterSet.

CIVILIZATION OUTRAGED
BY TREATMENT OF JEWS
| Alameda Times-Starl

The manner in which the Jews are being
treated in Austria by the new government forced
on them by Hitler, is a black mark on civiliza-
ton which will long be remembered by all those
who believe IN Peace on Earth, Good Will TO
Men"
There are about 600 Jews in Austria who
were living peaceful life until NaZi Germany
took over the country. Now their stores are
being raided. synagogues robbed and homes brok-
en- into Many are being beaten, oppressed and
imprisoned in a ruthless way that will leave a
scar on this age of civilization.
The combined population of Germany and
Austria is about sc 100000 OF this number less
than 100000 are Jews, which means one Jew
in every GO of the population, very small ratio
and does not indicate the country is being
uyerrun by jews.
There is an old saying and true saying

smallpox.
The girl died a horrible death,
and was buried at night in the
woods not far from our house. 1
could hear the clods falling as the
men shoveled the earth on top of
the coffin.
Now I get to the point
When the doctor quarantmed
the family, Sam Mozingo was told
he was not. under any circum-
stances, TO leave the farm.
Sam was a hard-headed man,
and in the parlance of that sec
ton. he flew mad" It was his
farm and ne would do as he
pleased.
Oh, no, he wouldn't, the medi-
cal authorities said grimly and
two guards armed with shotguns
were stationed in front of the
house, with orders to shoot Sam
if he attempted to leave his farm.
Those armed men boarded at
our house You can imagine the
excitement Of the family atmos-
phere. One guard was always ON
duty, day or night.
Sam vowed he had to go to
town to get some groceries, and
nobody was going to stop him.
At that moment one of our
neighbors, seeing the climax, came
over. After sizing up the situation
he asked that he be allowed to
talk with Sam. The guard was
sent away.
Sam, said the neighbor, Il
realize you're upset and l don't
rightly blame you. But there's two
sides to this business. Both you
and Doc Nash are after the same
thing You don't want smallpox
to spread and kill people, and he
don't either. You agree with that
don't you Sam?" Sam shrugged
his shoulders and allowed he did.
We'll, now" continued the neigh
Dor, why don't you spend three
or four hours thinkin' it over?
Meantime, I'll hitch up the spring
wagon and go in and get your gro
ceries for you"
When the neighbor rJ.urned
Sam was milking his COWS. When
the neighbor called to him, he
came out and leaned over the
barbed wire fence
Your talk sort of cooled me
off. Guess maybe 7 was a little
hasty," he said
The neighbor set out the gro
ceries and drove on. Sam picked
up his sugar and coffee and went
back into the house.
This was the first concrete eX-
ample of handling people that I
ever witnessed. 1t made a deep
impression on me.
The older I grow the less I act
in the heat of temper. Often 1
find that the other man wants ex-
actly what I do, that we disagree
only in method. When we dis
cover this to be true, the rest US
ually becomes a simple matter

SAN FRANCISCO MUST CLEAN UP ITS
MESSES OR INJURE SUCCESS OF FAIR
(HanfOrd Sentinel

Success Of San FranciSc0S big exposition
next year IS going TO depend much on the man
ner in which the city administration and the
people there clean up their internal affairs.
SO far labor, business and politics have kept
The municipality in a seething and unsettled
inclination among people in sections of the
state, particularly in the San Joaquin Valley, to
participate with exhibits until San Francisco
shows its ability TO end labor and business war
fare and bring about permanent peace and
amicable relations between the two. So far
this has not been accomplished.
There is another matter We have reference
to the bail bond sore made by the McDonoughs
The decent people there spent two years purg-
ing the city of the McDonoughs with their cor
ruptng methods. The firm was found guilty
and was convicted in the public mind and ousted
from business in the bail bond line as a punish
ment But the McDonoughs continue to do the
bail bond business both in violation of the law
and public opinion.
And to make the condition more offensive
the McDonoughs were recently hailed before a
city judge in San Francisco with conclusive
evidence against them of illegal practices The
state had refused to grant them a license to
continue. The judge sitting in the city case
dismissed the prosecution for want of evidence"
This has aroused the law abiding people there
and the court has been called to account by
public expressions.
Here a chance for San Francisco to
clean up this mess Of the McDonoughs viii
the city and county administration courts and
police rise to the situation and do this lob?
If they refuse neglect to purge the commu-
nifty Of this sore, their failure must not only
reflect adversely upon them but also serve 10
initiate against the exposition there.

not sign a contract with labor union

More Monopoly
ROOSeUeH Talks
Ry RODNEY DuTCHER


WASHINGTON Unless some
one manages to dissuade him,
President Roosevelt in the very
near future will pop long await
ed message to Congress on monop-
oily which again will cause him to
be accused OF disturbing business. -
The administrations victory
over the big public utility hold
ing companies in the Supreme
Court is Just the sort of thing
most likely to encourage RooSe-
velt in his desire to move against
other holding companies.
Although there is as yet no Ger
tainty about it, the presidential
message is likely to call for elimi-
nation of bank holding companies,
an increased intercorporate divi-
dend tax which would tend to
eliminate other holding companies,
tax exemptions for holding com
pany system undertaking simpli-
fled reorganizations, investigation
of the concentration of economic
power, measures to assure compel
tive bids for corporate financings,
federal regulation of investment
companies and revision of anti
trust laws
Some of those proposals may not
be in the message. but it is to be
expected that the document Will
be strong enough to establish con-
centration of wealth and eco
nomic power as a major political
issue of 1888 and 1910.
Chances are rather good that
Congress- will be fighting over the
intercorporate dividends collected

how narrowly should the industry

by its desire to carry out these
ideas?
