Nonsense

James A. Farley, whether as Post
master General or as chairman of
the Democratic National Committee,
customarily talks language which
his fellow countrymen can under
stand and appreciate. He is not
habitually given to wizard words"
which are susceptible of different
meanings. Neither does he often
engage in intellectual acrobatics"
intended to leave his audience be-
wildered
Once in while, however, Mr..
Farley is persuaded to step out of
his natural character and to employ
his undoubted talents of expression
rather invidiously. For example,
yesterday, when leaving the White
House, he declared: "The nomination
tof Wendell Willkie) greatly clarifies
the issue before the Nation-which is
a good thing. The question is, OF
course, what set of forces, economic
and social, are to conduct our
Government-the historic American
processes or some new and somewhat
foreign methods of concentrated
control?"
Certainly Mr.. Farley did not desire
to identify the Republican candidate
for the presidency with Fascism or
Communism. He would deny any
such implication just as he would
refuse to contend that there was
anything un-American about the
shaping Of events at Philadelphia.
Mr.. Willkie was elevated to the
leadership of the Republican party
as naturally as Franklin D. Roose-
velt was raised to that Of the Demo-
cratic at Chicago in 1882. The people
wanted both. So, too, the voters may
be trusted to decide between the
PHILOSOPHERS of the two schools of
thought which will be represented
in the coming campaign
Mr.. Farley, meanwhile, will not
object If his pronouncement yester-
day is regarded in relation to the
political conditions which presum-
ably inspired it. It was nonsense,
and the Postmaster General National
Chairman probably by this time
agrees that it was.

work scheme, should any breakdown
occur in one or more areas, linking
lines could be cut in without delay
to bring reserve power from other
points.
At present the local company has
generating facilities of 255,000 kilo-
watts capacity at the Benning and
present Buzzard Point plants. BY
autumn the first unit of the new
plant will add $4,000 kilowatts, and
in less than two years the new ad-
dition, just announced, will have
boosted the possible output another
5C,C00 kilowatts at a cost OF $780,
600. This increase not only will take
care Of normal growth for several
years, but is far enough beyond
maximum anticipated demands to
provide an adequate reserve tor any
emergency.

Men ENOUGH

The American public during
months to come may have little news
of what is happening in France.
German control Of the Gallo repub-
lie necessarily must be complete
under conditions dictated by the
continuance Of the war with Great
Britain. The French people are
prisoners "for the duration"
But despite interference with the
ordinary facilities of communication,
1t already has been assured that
France is to survive as a society, If
not as an entirely independent state.
The French conception of life has
not changed despite the misfortunes
Of recent weeks. Indeed, there is
reason to believe that national pat
terms of thought, national feelings,
national aspirations have been slim
ulated to increased power among the
inhabitants of the land in which
Voltaire, Victor Hugo and Emile Zola,
great humanists all, are not for
gotten.
Something of the same develop
ment followed upon the disasters of
the F'ranco-Prussian conflict and the
resultant commune in the years after
1871. The indemnity was paid al
most at once so that French soil
might be freed from Prussian oc-
cupation. BY May l, 1878, the
exposition at Paris demonstrated a
complete recovery from the troubles
of the past. The essential residence
of France was made manifest In vast
construction projects, of which the
Eiffel Tower was an example.
Again, in the period of the first
World War, between 1914 and 1918,
French civilization was devastated
by a German invasion. Hundreds of
thousands of acres of what once had
been a garden were blasted in q
carnival of violence without prec-
edent in history. But within a
decade after the close of the strife
those fields, those hills and valleys
had blossomed again. The scars Of
the carnage were buried in wheat
with scarlet peoples and sky blue
cornflowers scattered along the re-
laid roads.
Marshal Petain has synbolized the
powers Of recovery which are in
stinctive in his countrymen. When,
at eighty-two, he was asked how he
preserved his youth, he answered:
by skipping rope" In a more
solemn moment he now proclaims "a
new order" In France social sys-
response to his declaration OF .

Regulating 'Chority'

Anybody may come to Washington,
open a headquarters, incorporate as
a charitable organization with a
high-sounding title and appeal to
the public for funds. There Is no
pablo or private agency empowered
to pass on the legitimacy of the ap-
peal, the competency of the agency
to perform the work for which it ap-
peals 'or to examine the disposition
OF the funds collected from the
public.
One result is that the Washington
public is constantly besieged by tele-
phone and other appeals from solici-
tors, working on a commission basis,
who, judging by their number and
the estimates of the Better Business
Bureau, collect a substantial sum
every year from the public in the
name OF ostensibly worthy causes,
with no responsibility nor account
ability in the expenditure of the
funds. The public pays large por-
tion OF such contributions to the
solicitors who collect the money.
1t Is plain that there should be
some control by a public agency over
individuals and organizations in the
business Of making appeals to the
public for funds. The control should
extend to all agencies. 1t would be
welcomed and has been sought by
such agencies as those affiliated with
the Community Chest, and it would
tend to eliminate others whose
methods OF operation are open to
question. Legislation to provide such
control, by licensing solicitors or re-
quiring certificates of registration for
individuals or groups making public
appeals for funds, has been proposed
and should be presented to Congress
by the Commissioners.
The evil resulting from lack of all
control Is not merely the opportunity
for racketeering in the name of
charity, but the confusion in the
public mind AS to the legitimacy
of the many appeals made in the
name Of sweet charity No agency
should be permitted to collect funds
from the public unless it is prepared
to establish its responsibility to the
satisfaction Of the authorities.
