CAPTIVATING MISTAKES

Nevada State JournaD
''In the bright lexicon of youth there is
no such word as fall
Inspiring words and beautiful thought
but devoid of truth. Failures usually
have their foundation in youth The hui
man failure grows up a failure. Youth
has its ambitions dreams and aspira-
tions, few of which are ever realized be-
cause youth too often Lacks courage and
determination. Adversely is no mother
Of invention to the average young man or
woman, nor are rebuffs merely obstacles
to be overcome like the diseases of child
hood.
Man must learn to fight for self-preser-
walton and his only teacher is experience.
Genius is born; successes are won by hard
work
Were it true that there is no such word
as fail in the bright lexicon of youth there
would be no failures in life. 1t is true
that the recuperative powers of youth
permit it to forget pain after it has pass
ed, but out of every generation of young
people millions give up before they have
made a real stab at success
Even being successful at lowly occupa-
tions involves certain degree of persis-
tance, effort and sacrifice Whereas to
be highly successful one must make him
self a slave to his purpose and count each
failure as a stepping stone to ultimate
success. Mistakes are made to be capital

FAR FROM
COMMUNISM

Ir its report last spring Saposs
was the one board official the
committee excoriated as a Com
munist. Shocked by the commit
tees charges, congress refused to
appropriate any money for the work
of Saposs' division. Saposs. who IS
so far from being a Communist
that he enjoys the support anG
confidence of the boards lone
moderate member, DR.. William
Leiserson, felt that he was some
how being made a goat, and tried
to do something about it,
What Saposs did was visit tive
congressmen-Kee of Wise onsin
and Engel of Michigar-and have
a long chat, in which he explained
his economic and political views
and succeeded fairly we'll in un-
pirning the Communist label from
his shirt front. What else he said

overlook the Smith committee s
currert effort to prove that Com
munists have been been running
the labor beard An immensely in
teresting story lies back of it all.
Convinced that the board is
more or less loaded with Commu-
nistS, the Smith committee has
been looking for some board off
cial who might prove sore enough
about the situation to spill the
beans. And the man the commit
tee finally tagged for that role is
the very man whom the committee
itself a few morths ago was de-
nouncing as the worst of Commu-
nists-David j. Saposs. head of the
hoard's economic research division
So far, the squeeze play tasn't
worked. 1t has landed Saposs in

for revelation. But tho steps in the

the labor board and designed to
refute as many as possible of the

openly threw him to the wolves.
1t hasn't worked out that way
though. Saposs is ir' bad with prac-

half English, he was born in Monte.
clair N. j., lived in half a dozen
towns along the coast OF northern
New England, attended and mated
uppity private schools, went to sea
right after the death of his father
and the depletion of family finances
justified the change. His first voy-
age was down to the Canal and up
to California, and he went back on
q freighter to succession of berths
on sailing craft, including the Clou-
cester fishing fleet and the famed
Gertrude l. Thibaud. He had mas
ters papers at 81.
He went around the world in
SAIL as mate, and has commanded
