OLD ENOUGH TO
LOOK AFTER HIMSELF

There would be fewer cllnglng vines
among the adult male population of
the world if there were more mothers
like Mrs. Talbot Clifton of London.
"My boy is old enough to look after
himself" she commented when she heard
that her son, Harry T. Clifton, had lost
$150,OC0 in a Hollywood poker game in
which, according to Harry, everything
was not as it should have been.
Il always keep out of my children's
business" Mrs. Clifton added.
There are mothers-lOtS of them
who would have flown into severe case
Of the filters after some such comment
as, "but it couldn't have been my Harry.
Some vicious persons must have led him
astray He's such a good boyv
Instead Mrs. Clifton commented, Pm
afraid he is inclined to believe rather too
much in the good nature of other people,
And, from that remark, we rather be-
lieve that Mrs. Clifton very gently, but
very firmly, might tell her son what an
incompatible jackass he has been--if he
asked her opinion. If he didn't, she'd
probably let his own conscience tell him
something similar.
Too many parents-fathers and moth
ers alike-are inclined to believe their
offspring can do nothing wrong. Per-
haps the attitude is commendable one,
but the trouble is that the children often
get the same idea, and very often that
idea leads them into the courts of law
after the protection Of the loving par
entS is no longer available.

WHY THE DlCTATORS
FEAR ASSASSINATION

Secret police OF three nations, say
press dispatches, are guarding dictators
of those three nations They are Ger
many, Italy and Russia. Adolf Hitler,
Benito Mussolini and Josef Stain fear
assassination.
Leaders in all countries are guarded
by special details of the secret service
against the unpredictable mad impulses
of political maniacs. That is routine in
every nation in the world. 1t is not rou-
tine, however when such a concentra-
ton of guards is established as that to-
day in Italy, Germany and Russia.
This massing of secret police means
only one thing. That the worlds three
greatest dictators live in hourly fear of
assassination.
When such a fear exists, and when
such precautions are necessary against
possible assassinS, it is evident that
things are not as rose colored as the die
tators and their propaganda agents
would have the world believe If all
Germans were enthusiastic about Hitler,
or if all Italians were heartily in agree
ment with Mussolini, or if all Russians
worshipped Stalin-then certainly there
would be no great necessity for the in
finite precautions against assassination.
Censorship in those three countries
will not permit the press, nor anyone
else to criticize the leaders Yet criti-
cism must exist Hatred, even, must
exist. Else there would be no fear that
the leaders will be murdered.
Oppression brings about its own down.
fall The people of any country will,
eventually, realize that they are not liv-
ing in the paradise their leaders have
painted for them-and when the reaiza-
tion comes, the end is near for dictator
ship. That, at least, has been the case in
history. Precautions against assassina-
tion of the three great dictators of today
seems to indicate that the trend con-

ETERNAL VIGILANCE

(NO9aleS t1eTdlu)
The steps of the United States Capitol

but from people far out in the states.
They said that what was happening in
the District of Columbia could well be

In those days Arizona was only viii

are not sold on the Capitol steps yet
Arizona is we'll aware that eternal vigil

six DAYS are enough for a weeks busi-

the bill went through the Senate. There
was plenty, though, before it left the
House.
BY letters and petitions, thousand
Arizonans requested Congressman Muir
dock to do something about the injustice
of a law forcing business houses to close
on Sunday And those who complained
were church members.
Never could it be said that the Senate
was contriving to put anything over on
anybody when it passed that bill. If
there is one thing that all ninety-six of
them see the same way, it is religious
freedom. But somehow they forgot that
all men do not observe the same Sab

DEMOCRACY HOLDS
{ Riverside Press }

NhlNerSlue ITeSSD
"In the world war;" leading Ameri-
can minister reminds us, ''the Kaiser's
armies scored one triumph after another
and conquered one country after anoth-
er. Only one front held-the western
front-the front of the demOcracies of
England, France and the United States.
That one front nullified all the victories
accumulated by Germany in four years
of fighting
If such a democratic front could be
established in peace time, instead of
war time, with a unified purpose to de-
fend international law and morality, the
present victories of Hitler would turn
out to be of as little value to the aggres-
sors as were the first military victories
of the World war.
1t is reassuring to be reminded of that
And it groves steadily clearer that the
democratic powers must hang together
now, if these new surges of pagan viol-
ence are to be kept from destroying mod
ern liberty and the civilization we have
known.
We must cooperate in moral influence
and practical peace measures, through
parallel action in diplomacy and econo-
mics and the spreading of the truth, if

Bruce Cation Says
A Special Week With Merit

Those figures mean, first that
we are shockingly remlss III the
matter of providing the right sort
OF attention for women In child
bed. The medical skill, dletetic
knowledge and prenatal guidance
which would reduce our maternity
death rate to a fraction oil It's
present level are available-that
is. they are in existence, But some
how they don't get to all the
women who need them. A tragic
annual sacrifice is the result.
Secondly the figures mean that
a great number of babies who
might be saved are lost every year
because the care that would save
them is not made available There
can be no more pitiful toll than
this. To be able to save babies
from death, and yet to let them
die-nation which does that ON
scale that we do it can feel any
thing but the profoundest shame.
Now these, as it happens, are
not things that will right them
selves if we give them plenty of
time. Mothers and babies who
might live will continue to die,
year after year, unless we force
ourselves to realize how ineXcus-
able our neglect is, and do some
thing about it. 1t is not a matter
of finding new knowledge or de
veloping new scientific skills; the
knowledge and the skills are at
hand, and we need only to make
sure they are used.
If the observance of Better Par
erthood Week this year compels
us to recognize this. problem and
to take steps to solve it, the week
will be time well spent indeed.

the idea. Then we got a series OF
Big Red Apple Days, Eat More

the idea went pretty stale.
But it still has its points. when
really good cause is involved; and
YOU might pay little special at

which has been set aside as Better
Parenthood Week.
Child Health Day, for num-
ber of years, has been observed ON
the first of May. Mothers Day,
this year. falls on May 8. To the
editor of the Parents Magazine
there occurred the idea OF COM
bining the two dates to stress the
whole general subject of better
care for children and better pro-
lection for mothers,
That this is a subject Whlch
badly needs emphasizing is all TOO
obvious. Parents Magazine, for m
stance. points out that each year
