CPEAKING of minds
~ l doubt whether there is a
freer mind-a mind that more
nearly approaches mental per-
fection-than the untrammeled
scientific mind. l mean the in
quirer after material. psyche
logical and cosmic knowledge
without regard to where trails
lead, without regard to conse-
quences, without regard TO
public opinion ethics or move
ments." Such a mind is 100
per cent free.
AS an instance, when Charles
Darwin, who, as he supposed,
was the father of the theory OF
evolution, was about to publish
his epoch-making THE Origin
of Species" in 1859, he received
from the other side of the world,
Malaga, long manuscript from
his friend, Alfred Russell Wal
lace, whom Darwin had not seen
for some years. In Wallace's
manuscript were the identical
ideas that Darwin had been
secretly working on for years.
Did Darwin tear his hair or
kick the cat? Did he throw
Wallace's manuscript into the
stove? No, for Darwin. having
the sort of mind / spoke Of
where only the truth, not men,
mattered was overjoyed to
find that some one also had
evolved the same mighty idea
that he had. He even said to
Wallace he would step aside and
let Wallace publish. first. In
reply. Wallace. being the same
type of scientific mind, insisted
that Darwin should publish first.

Contrary to Policy

FORMER PRESIDENT HOOVER, and those members
i of Congress who have spoken their minds on the
subject entirely right in denouncing this country
present attitude toward Finland international inn
morality.
None of these Americans wants to Great Britain
defeated by Hitler.
None of them defends or condones German militar
ism or feels anything but sympathy for conquered peoples
under the swastika.
But brutality and injustice are the same wherever
committed and the very standards by which Naz ag-
gressons upon free nations condemned must equally
condemn what Soviet Russia inflicted on Finland and the
other Baltic republics
At present, with Russia fighting Germany Great
Britain accepts the Soviet Union ally while de-
nouncing bolshevsm monstrous evil and repress-
ing the Communist Party at home
In similar circumstances, the Films fighting
against Russia the side of Germany to their
lost provinces and to redeem their Karean knsmen from
Communist captvity-and the Films doing this with
out in any way accepting nazsm political creed.
Patiently, therefore the British and American threats
toward Finland cannot be justified any moral grounds
THE question: then, arses-on what other grounds
the action be excused?
Certainly not as proper execution of American
foreign poicy-in fact the American intimidation of
Finland is CONTRARY TO OUR ESTABLISHED
FOREIGN POLICY because it is A VIOLATION OF
THE MONROE DOCTRINE.
In his message to Congress on December 2, 1929
Formulating the ooctrne, PRESIDENT monroe salo'
"In the Of the European, powers IN MAT
TIERS RELATING TO THEMSELVES we have never
taken any part, NOR DOES TT COMFORT WITH OUR
POLICY TO DO So"
Obviously the present is "war of the Euro
pean powers" ------
Equally obviously Finand's reoccupation and pro-
lection of her territory is "a matter relating to
herself"
Our government, through its good neighbor" policy
Is expanding much time and effort to exclude Nazi and
Fascist influence from Latin America, under the Mon
Doctrine.
IS TT to be policy henceforh to enforce that half
of the Monroe Doctrine which pertains to the Americas
while ourselves violate that other integral portion per-
tanning to the and politics of Europe?
If So is it not evident that-morally and in inter-
national law wel-we shall DESTROY our historic
case against European intrigue in the Western Hem
isphere?
Will not we ourselves indeed be destroying the Mon
Doctrine?

Professors New Order
Called 'Commufascism'
BY BENJAMIN DE CAssEREs
7 LIKE to expose to you, dear

7 LIKE to expose to you, dear
= reader. from time to time
the befuddled condition of those
minds who want us to get rid
of the traditional American way
of life and launch out on some
postwar" new order.
Here is a sample Of this dodge
around-the-corner thinking. 1t
is from Prof. Frank f. Horack
Jr. of the University of Indiana.
and is taken from the New
York Times:
81 do not suggest any particu-
lar economic order-not govern
ment ownership, not commu-
nism, not state socialism, not
fascism, not even an Adam
Smith Extraordinarily a prin-
ciple, q principle that the eco
nomic order shall be operated
to protect all our citizens In the
same fashion that government
guarantees us our political
freedoms"
In a word, he doesn't want to
give his system a name. But
the name exists, although Pro-
fessor Horack did not mention
il. It is commufascism, which
will be a regimented and or
dered America borrowed from
Stain. Hitler and Mussolini.
Why aren't these new order"
professors and columnists as
clear in the expression of their
ideas as Stain and his pals?
Maybe it is because they have
no ideas-only wishbones sand
wiched between words, words,
words.

"Yoo never say anything
= about dancing in your
column. Don't you like to trip
the light fantastic Don't you
get tingle in the toes when you
witness a conga line or hear the
strains of a rhumba?"
The above is the preamble to
a screeve addressed to us, bear
ing the signature of Arthur Muir
ray. We are not familiar with
Mr.. Murray's handwriting. but
we will lay you 6 to 5 that Mr..
Murray did not personally APP
pend that signature. We will
bet you that it was stuck on by
Mr.. Murrays publicity repre-
sentative.
Mr.. Murray runs a famous
dancing school in New York and
the publicity representative
wrote us that letter with the
idea of getting Mr.. Murray's
name in this column. We went
to notify the publicity repre-
sentative here and now that he
is not going to get MIR. Murrays
name in on the strength of any
such muZZ muZZ as that. We
doubt that Mr.. Murray would
have approved the letter had it
been shown to him before being
sent out.
Mr.. Murray probably knows
very well that we do not like to
trip the light fantastic. 1t is
common gossip from the Battery
to the Bronx that we do not
like to trip the light fantastic,
and Mr.. Murray could scarcely
escape hearing such a general
rumor. On those rare occasions
that we are required to trip the
light fantastic, sadistS gather
in large numbers at the ringside
Just to revel in our suffering.
EORMER Warden Lawes OF
l. Sing Sing once observed us
tripping the light fantastic and
he afterward confided to friends
that he had never seen a man
going to the electric chair with
half as much gloom in his coun-
tenance as we displayed
1t was the time we were
dragged out on the floor to COM
NIT a rhumba, "a form of caper-
ing highly incompatible with our
present physical contour. which
does not permit us to get close
enough TO a dancing partner TO
hand her a ripe peach.
SO, then, we do not get a
tingle in the toes when we wit
ness a conga line or hear the
strains of a rhumba.
What we get is pain, and
where we get il is not in the
toes, and it is comparable geo.
graphically and otherwise to the
one we feel as we continue
reading the letter of Mr..
Murray,s- publicity representa-
tive and find him saying that it
stands TO reason that we ought
to get the tingle aforesaid be-
cause your writings show evil
dence of a definite rhythm, and
I wouldn't be surprised if you
pound out your daily dozen
sticks while the radio is pouring
forth dance music"
WELL, il is not our fault that
w we have no poetry in our
soul and il comes out in our
prose, but even this bull-con is
not going to get Mr.. Murray's
name in our column. The sug-
gestion that we write while the
radio is pouring forth dance
music is completely fatuous on
the face of il.
Our readers are aware that
what we write TO is hill-billy
stuff. And anybody can prove il
by setting the very words TO a
tune Of that nature.

Shortages
Caused by
Stock Piles
Copper lndustry's Figures
Prove Contention
BY HUGH S. JOHNSON

DELATEDLY, but rather now
- than never, the Washing
ton defense supply departments
are discovering that a principal
reason for apparent shortage in
strategic materials is a vast
backing up in the lines of sup
ply and in stock piles and inven-
tories.
Recently some figures were
given here on steel. Here are
some notes taken from a very
competent source about its own
company's supplies of copper.
They are informal and helter-
SHELTER but very informing:
Company, which will not
need any more copper until Sep
TENDER of next year, probably
uses some 5000, 900 to 10,000,00
pounds per year.
ut Is suggested that a COM
mittee of not over five from
brass and five from wire indus
try be called 10 Washington and
that OPM ask their advice as TO
how to run down inventory situ-
alton both As regards army and
navy and civilian industries.
There Is about 35 10 40 per
cent increase I'm inventories
lover immediate needs).
sVTNHE average amount of cop
per going into an airplane
Is between 500 and 400 pounds.
If you build $4,000 planes year
at approximately 800 pounds per
plane, Ii would take about 1900
tons year.
"The twO-Ocean navy requires
only 10000 tons Of copper over
four years-l5,0 900 to 10000 tons
per year.
ITO sheathe an average ship
with copper would require about
$4,000 to 10000 pounds of cop
per.
by March of next year a very
large amount of the copper that
will be used for new plants and
aluminium will be out of the way.
THE present practice, In or
derire. ship, Is to order all the
copper. brass, tubing, etc, that
is needed. That gets I'm the hands
of the navy right away although
they may not use all of it for
two years"
IT WAS the same way in World
l. War /. and the result is cop

1t is one of the most important
jobs of SPAB 10 run down and

tration, the highest copper re-
quirement 1 have heard even on
this basis, is $500, 900 tons.
Here is comparison of avail
able tonnage of primary copper
produced in 1918 and now. II
also comes from private sources
but is, ! think, as dependable as
we could get. 1t certainly does
not indicate any copper shortage

what it is worth.

New Story
Of Success
BylPegIer
Describes Rssas stofl
of Union Leader
By WESTBROOK PEGLER

BOUT a week ago I told you
"A the inspiring success story
of the illustrious Frank Feeney,
only recently deceased, the inter-
national president of the union
composed of elevator construc-
tors, whose homely'pleasure was
yachting and who started build
ing yachts for himself in 1880.
when millions of American
workers were desperately poor.
and had bought three tailor
made yachts and built a 10O-foot
private dock by the tyne of his
death in 1888.
These craft were not mere
kickerized skiffs or knockabouts
but veritable yachts of the same
type that gather at the Newport
regattas and Mr.. Feeney was,
in a manner of speaking, a re-
gatta man himself. which is to
say he used TO enter his boats
in the big races and cruises and
60 along for the ride, leaving the
scamanship and all TO his hired
crews.
Today I present the story OF
another up-from-under boy, a
Chicago unioneer, whose sport
ing instinct has led him to the
turf.
Our subject is not Mike Car.
rozzo of Chicago, who owned
outright for a long time an IN
ternational union of the ALL
but traded il toNJoe Moreschis
union of the hod carriers in -
turn for a sheaf of local Ct "
tiers.
True. CarroZZo was a mag
nificent success and owned not
a mere stable but a herd OF
thoroughbred steeds and owed
the federal government S25O,OOO
in income taxes.
NOR have I reference now to
~ G.. B. Diogguardi. New
York union operator who also
practiced under a license from
Moreschi and raced nine head OF
stock.
Today's success is William f.
Maloney, the international presi-
dent of the Union of Operating
Engineers, which includes among
its adornments Joe Fay. who
was offended by Dave Dublin
sky's motion. al the New Or
leans convention of the AFL last
year, TO eliminate racketeers and
expressed his resentment with
physical protest that left Mr..
Dubinsky bloody but unbowed.
Mr.. Maloney succeeded the
late John PoSsehl as president
by vote of the other interna-
tional officers who had been
elevated on a Hitler ballot which
contained no rival names.
Mr.. Maloney has been racing
since 1888 and he has raced IL
head and owned others.
His horses which have gone 10
the post, as listed by the Illinois
Racing Board. are: Her Reign.
Play Chance. Sebuico. Big
Squire. Tull. Coll. Blondkin. CO.
Time, Speedy Boyer. Count Nat
ural, Sanfern and Sunny Thone.
The records report that he has
shipped TO Florida and Maine
and has raced extensively on
the Chicago tracks.

DACK in August the poor
- working stiffs of the union
gave one of those spontaneous
testimonial dinners for their
great, beloved chief. Maloney,
at the Chicago Towers Club.
and William Green. the presi.
dent of the AFL. was present
TO lend the prestige of his high
position of moral responsibility
and trust.
Joe Fay, vice president, was
POSTMASTER. -
Mr.. Green's picture was taken
In the act of shaking hands
with the guest of honor and
various other dignitaries were
photographed for the official
publication of the engineers.
Charles B. Granting. one of
the international trustees, is
shown wearing a large button
on his lapel inscribed I'm in the
Mood" in conversation with
William NJ. Welsch. the first
vice president. whose button
reads, When I'm Full Send Me
Home"
Another important dignitary,
come to honor the devotee of
the sport of kings at labor's
board was Anton j. Imhahn,
who himself was the recipient of
a similar spontaneous testimo-
NAL dinner earlier at which he
was honored, and no doubt sur
prised, by substantial check"
The states attorney, Thomas
Courtney. investigated and
Lieut.. Charles Egan of the po-
lice detail assigned to that
office, was informed that the
total receipts were SIS, 276 and
the net gift to Mr.. Imhahn,
S6,959.
Chicago locals Of the en7iA
neers are closely allied TO
locals of the late CarrozzoS
union, which are still carrying
on under new local manage
ment. but of course under the
general authority of Moreschi.
