LONG REACH OF MAD MAN
TOUCHES FISHING VILLAGE

SOME Is YEARS AGO spent a
few pleasant days in the little New
foundland fishing village of Placen-
tia, located at the head Of Placentia
bay on the southeast coast Of the
fog enshrouded island. In its mod
est way, it was an attractive place,
consisting Of some IL to Is snow
white cottages, with the bluest Of
blue trimmings, Methodist church
and a small store specializing in
ship chambers supplies. To the
north and west of the village there
was but the unbroken wilderness of
stunted timber, valuable only as
pulp wood.
Today the little village Of Placen-
tia is gone. Its white and blue cot
tages and its little church have fall
en- victims to the war preparations
of the United States. Where it
stood, this nation is today erecting
buildings that will house, not a
simple fisher folk, but the officers
and men of an American naval sta
ton to aid in the protection of the
world against the Mad Man Of
Europe.

Slept Like a Log

81 slept like a log" people say,
imagining that in those words
they are describing night of
motionless slumber. Science now
informs us that this time-honored
phrase is an erroneous description
of healthy sleep.
Eight hours sleep in one posi-
ton would be abnormal. Con-
trary to general belief, the aver
age healthy sleeper changes the
position of his body anywhere
from 20 to IS times in the course
of nights sleep. Under unusual
conditions he will move even more
frequently. Seldom is one still for
as long as an hour.

MILITARY HIGHWAY,
MEXICO TO PANAMA
THE PRESIDENT has asked con.
gress for SIC, 000,0 900 for the purpose
Of building military highway from
the southern boundary of Mexico to
the Panama canal. OF course it is
intended as a defense measure.
A year ago, a young man called
on me, saying he and his wife were
planning an automobile trip from
the northern border of Mexico
through to Colombia. For the past
three months they have been at
tempting that trip and have pro-
crossed as far as southern Mica
ragua. Following such trails, and
an occasional short piece of road,
as can be found, they report prog
ress ranging from one-half to seven
miles day for the days they at
tempt to travel through the Central
American jungles.
They may be able to get through
to the Canal after another three or
four months, but it is doubtful if
they can go from there to the Colon
bian border.
That is the country of the San Bias
Indians and few white men have
ever penetrated it for any distance.
The Indians do not take kindly to
the whites.
An acquaintance of some years
ago, Captain Fitzmorris, an English
soldier of fortune, was one of the
few white men acceptable to the
San Bias Indians. He had been
made a blood member of the tribe
and lived with them for a number
of years following the close of the
last World war.
Fitzmorris fought for England
when his native country was at war,
big or little, in any part of the
world. If it was not at war, he
hunted up wars in other countries If
possible. When he could not find
one in which he could participate,
he would go to the San Bias coun-
try and live with the Indians. He
wore the Victoria cross, with two
bars, earned, of course, in the serv-
ice of England.
It is what I learned from Captain
Fitzmorris of the San Bias country
that causes me to question the abil-
ity of the intrepid young couple to
make their way through it to the
Colombian border.

GOVERNMENT ALSO DUBIOUS
IF BY EXECUTIVE ORDER

WE FEEL a bit sorry for the peo-
pie of any nation from which comes
an announcement of government
by Decree" We think of it as an
other country moving toward die
tatorship, another people losing their
liberties. We thank God we are not
in that boat.
There is not much difference be-
tween government by decree" and
government by executive order. "
A violation of an executive order
can send one to jail as quickly and
certainly as a violation of decree,
and to a considerable extent, we
Americans are governed by "execu-
tive orders"
President Roosevelt or, with his
authority, the heads of well over
100 departments or bureaus, have
issued executive orders" on an av-
erage of much more than one each
day for more than the past eight
years. The vast majority of Ameri-
can citizens know nothing of what
these orders are. They are not de-
bated in congress. They are seldom
reported in the newspapers. Law
yers cannot keep up with them. They
are laws that cannot be found in
the law books. They cover as many
subjects as there are executive or
derS."
For example: Should any retail
grocery man sell as much as 100
pounds of sugar to any one customer
and fail to report that sale, with the
name of the customer, to the secre-
tary of the treasury, he can be sent
to Jail and heavily fined for VIOLA
ton of an executive order. Gro
Gerry men, entirely ignorant Of such
law, have paid fines and served
terms in Jail for violation of that
order.
If government by decree" is a
stepping stone to dictatorship, what
is government by executive or
DER?
