Job, but In which no one can starve,
or go without work.
am not debating the morality Of
soldiers bonuses, for the soldiers are
entitled to more than we are ever likely
to give them. I call attention to their
shabbiness and inappropriateness
Bonuses beg the question. The ex-
serviceman is not in trouble because he
needs S4500 He Is in trouble because
he needs security.
The answer would seem to be, not
the creation of special rights for ex-
servicemen, but the creation of decent
minimums for everybody. This would
seem an especially appropriate answer
to follow a total war, for the armies
of total war are so huge that the at
tempt to create a special interest Of
ex-servicemen almost amounts to
creating special interest Gf we include
dependentS of half the country. The
cost of general program for a safer
life for all cannot be much, If any,
greater.
1t seems to me the veteran will make
bad bargain If he settles for a hatful
of dollars in an insecure country, rather
than for a job in secure country.
He fought to make America safe.
safe America would be precise and
appropriate reward for his efforts, far
more meaningful than an irrelevant
lump-sum payment for time spent in
battle

1t is possible the exigencies of the po-
litical campaign may in the end call for
different tactics on the part of Mr..
Roosevelt. Suppose, for example, a Re-
peared to be running in October. The
President and his advisers might come
to conclusion that, whatever the risk,
it would be necessary for him to get out
and fight for reelection. They came to
such a conclusion in 1910. when Mr..
WILKES drive for the presidency seemed
to be gaining ground. Mr.. Roosevelt
then took to the road in most eff1cient
manner He might do so again, war or
no war, danger or no danger.
The Republican candidate faces the
need of getting about the country, max
ing himself known to as many persons
as possible. This will be as true for Mr..
Willkie as for any other nominee, even
though Mr.. Willkie made the big circle
in 1910 as presidential candidate and
is out campaigning for delegates now.
1t will be particularly true for Gov.
Dewey should he be nominated. He has
stuck close to his Office in Albany for
more than year and he is making no
campaign for delegates to the Repub-
lican National Convention.
The campaign ahead, therefore, brings
many problems, among them division
of the air for political speeches. A War
Bond drive in the closing days Of the
campaign, for example. might make 1t
difficult for the Republicans to get time.
They also may have more difficulty
reaching the voters in the armed forces
overseas with their arguments.

for the gift Of security. It is mere
shot in the arm. temporary and in
appropriate. Some of the current
schemes for bonuses and other extraor-
dinary outlays for veterans call for
expenditures Of as high as $40 900 900 ,000
When the social security report of the
National Resources Planning Board was
handed in, more than year ago, 1t
was pooh-poohed as extravagant on the
ground that it might call for outlays
of as much as two billions year. Some
of the proposed schemes for yesterdays
bonuses call for spending enough money
to finance social security, including
health care, universal retirement pen
sions and unemployment insurance, on
a broad basis. for the entire Nation,
for as long as 10 years.
The question Is whether the veteran
wants $4,000, or whether he wants
country in which it is safe to live, safe
not only for himself, but for his rela-
tives, his children and his friends; a
country in which men don't need
bonuses to temper their fears for the
future.
To give the veteran 10 additional
credit points on every civil service
examination is, at best, a shabby sub

According to the first group, Japan
must, in her march toward world en-
pire. begin by possessing herself of the
resources of China and by driving Rus
sia away from the shores of the Sea of
Japan. In other words, Japan must
reduce to possession the whole of the
continent of Asia adjacent to the Japa-
nese islands, thus establishing a secure
base for further operations.

The navy group held on the contrary
that the essential beginning was the
conquest Of the Netherlands Indies and

Japan must have a secure supply of
iron oil, tin rubber and other basic
industrial raw materials before she
could begin to feel safe.
Admitting this, the continental group

hope to hold such conquests unless she

Budget Bureau Under Fire

Does the Budget Bureau save the
Government any money? Senator
Mcclellan, chairman of the Senate
Appropriations Committee, says it
does not. In the recent hearings
on the independent offices appro-
priation bill he inserted a table
comparing budget estimates with
congressional appropriations in the
twenty-five years of the Budget
Bureaus history. The totals and the
balance are interesting Budget
estimates were in excess of 434
billion dollars, appropriations were
over 433 billions, indicating that
appropriations were more than
billion dollars less than estimates.
But this balance alone is mislead-
Ing as an index of the Budget
Bureaus value. In thirteen years of
the twenty-five covered, appropria-
tions exceeded budget estimates.
And there is no showing of the saw
1ngs in appropriations made possible
by Budget Bureau recommendation
on the use of money appropriated.
Appropriations in 1928, the first year
the Budget Bureau functioned, were
1878 millions. For fiscal 1914, they
were 1884 millions. Such fantastic
figures in themselves render almost
insignificant a difference of billion
dollars or so between total estimates
and appropriations. What the fig
ures really demonstrate is the fact
that our fiscal machinery could not
function at all without the SUPER
vision OF Budget Bureau which
has not grown nearly so fast as the
sums with which it necessarily must
deal.

Irwin S. Cobb

lrVln 5. Cobb was one of the great
Americans of his time. Some
other country might have produced
him, but no other country did. He
was as true and natural an issue of
the soil of his beloved Kentucky as
the hackberries and the crabapples
of the McCracken hills. Just as
definitely he belonged to his own
particular generation. He followed
Bret Harte and Mark Twain and
was the contemporary of Will
Rogers, fitting into the picture of
the age with grace that was
frankly elephantine yet nonethe-
less artistic on that account. Few
homeIler creatures ever have lived
nor gloried more in not being an
Adonis. 1t pleased him to remind
people that Abraham Lincoln also
was as plain as mud fence"
But what the general public saw
Of Cobb was relatively only the outer
surface of him. He was an un-
doubted lord of language, wizard
with words, and such magnificent
Skill as he possessed is not acquired
by any process save that of Cruel
ing toll. The secret of his pro-
dlglouS production is to be found in
the uncounted hours that he spent
at his desk, plodding, sweating, max
ing living literature out of the fabric
Of his heart and brain. First, he
had to feel the thing he wished to
create, then, with cXhausting pain,
he had to shape and mold and per-
feet it. Nothing that he wrote was
dashed off" His manuscript was
a printers delight. pleasure to set.
The explanation was in the con-
science of the author, his hidden
spiritual power
Cobb was fabulist. Open any of
his hundred volumes at random and
read any paragraph printed on any
page: Much Of his meaning is "be-
tween the lines" and while it was
his pretense to be merely "a fellow
Of infinite jest" he was in fact
teacher and a moral guide. HIS final
letter to his friends at Paducah
surely proves him social philoSo-
, pher of authentic distinction, a
courageous critic, a searching an
! alySt and appreciator of the world
about him.
And that world is the world of
ordinary human beings. Cobb's
fame is secure. Like Walt Whitman,
he will be remembered for his ex-
preston Of the folk to whom he
belonged. Again, like Whitman. he
is assured of recollection as a de-
liberate individualist. The legends
he built around himself already have
become part of him. He lived, he

This failure of the Democrats to grab
Madison Square Garden for the Satur-
day night before election raises ques-
ton over the kind of campaign President
Roosevelt will wage, if he is renom-
mated It may mean that the President
does not intend to address big political
rallies in these wartimes. Indeed, the
Presidents comings and goings have
been hedged around so completely by the
Secret Service since the entry Of this
country into the war that an appear
ance by him at a Madison Square
Garden rally would seem out of the pic
ture entirely.
If, for reasons of personal safety of
the Chief Executive during war, Mr..
Roosevelt will be unable to travel about
the country making speeches-or be-
cause he is so busy with conduct of the
war he must stick to his White House
desk-the President may be confined to
campaigning via the radio. His Re-
publican opponent, on the other hand,
may be free to travel.
After three national campaigns, 1t may
be argued, President Roosevelt does not
need to get about the country and show
himself to millions of the people. On
the radio he has few if any equals. He
will be able to speak from Washington
to millions of listeners all over the coun-
try, and to the men in the armed forces
abroad. So predictions are made today
that the President will not travel for
political purposes in the coming cam
paign and will not address great public
gatherings. The most he may be ex-
pected to do, it was said, is to speak at

Letters to The Star
National Lottery Legislation
Criticized AS bad Example"
To the Editor of The Star:

To the Editor of The Star:
There is bill pending in the Senate,
viz. S. 1850, known as the lottery
bill" which proposes to raise about
$4,000 100000 annually in the form of
voluntary contributions to the Treas
ury CT the United States by means of
special certificates" which are to cost
the individual So, and, for each million
dollars worth of certificates distributed
prizes Will be given payable in Treasury
ponds ranging in value from Sl00 to
$4,000, which bonds. or proceeds from
the sale Of same, specifically are
exempted from Federal. State and
local taxes. There are to be 1913
prizes offered for each million dollars
worth OF certificates distributed 1t
IS stated that this legalized lottery
would make sales tax unnecessary.
II such bill were enacted into law.
no doubt there would be many people
who would buy these Government
certificates in the hope that they
might win a good prize for very small
investment. The virus of getting some
thing for nothing is very infectious
disease. 1t is a disease that saps and
undermines the virility of ones char
acter.
The Supreme Court of the United
States and the State courts as general
rule have condemned lotteries and
gambling devices, and State Legisla-
lures have enacted statutes prohibiting
lotteries as common nuisances.
1t is a question as to whether the
Congress of the United States can
enact lottery law that would be
valid in the States where constitu-
tional prohibitions of lotteries exist. At
least, it would be a bad example for
the Federal Government to set, if it
attempted to override the moral
standards set up by the people in the
various States. 1t generally is assumed
that the morals of a nation have ret
regarded to a low level whenever a
government is compelled to resort to
lotteries and gambling in order to raise
revenue. c. S. LONGACRE.

Constantine BrO1Vn

Because the Russians never have
been naval minded, it is not under
standable why Premier Stain suddenly
has become interested in obtaining a
part of the Italian fleet or it's equiv
alent and has raised the question at
this critical time. 1t Is believed that
the matter has never been clearly ex-
planned to him from the purely military
viewpoint. There was time last
summer when he was dissatisfied with
the American and British war effort
and it is assumed in certain diplomatic
quarters that the Italian fleet sugges-
ton was made as a sop to his hurt
feelings.
The whole question Is said TO have
been taken up again, in a somewhat
perfunctory manner, at Teheran where
Prime Minister Churchill is believed to
have suggested as an alternative to
the surrender of a third of the Italian
fleet the transfer of American or
British warships to the Russians. But
1t is doubtful that Mr. Churchill has
in mind such transfer before the
end OF the war in Europe.
Whether Stain has misunderstood
the meaning of his British colleagues
proposition or had in mind giving aid
to Marshal Tito. his protege In Yugo-
slavia, is not quite clear. At any rate.
the matter was taken up by the Soviet
government with the White House re-
Gently and question which should
have remained confidential as far as
the general public and the govern
ments of the other United Nations are
concerned was given wide publicity
and already has had some unfortunate
repercussions.
Washington and London are willing
to forget about it provided Moscow is
willing to leave the share of the spoils
until after the war.
