The word Socialist" or Communist"
Is never used to describe Russia. There
is evidently a standing order on this,
because the German press for months
consistently refers to Russia only as
"Bolshevik." The connotations built up
around "Bolshevik" are chaotic, in
human, Oriental, barbaric, Asiatic-
never an organized state-socialist econ

"Asiatic hordes." never as social-revo-

In Hitler's proclamation, Russian econ
omy is described as "a national economy
only in the sense of organized slavery
for the benefit of the Jewish directors

word Jewish" with Russia. This despite
the fact, well known in all countries
where there is free reporting, that Jewish
leadership is almost conspicuously alb

Golf Course Operation

In its new contract with a private
lessee for operation of Washing
tons rundown public golf courses,
the Department of Interior has at
last recognized principle advocated
by The Star in this connection for
many years. This is, that the profits
from public recreation should be
plowed back into improvement of
the properties.
Even with the increased golf fees
that the Interior Department has
agreed to, there may be only nomi-
nal profits now. For the war has
cut down patronage of the courses,
or what is left of them, and the IN
terror Department is splitting the
profits, fty-flfty, with a CONNER
cial operator. But under normal
conditions there should be more
money available for improving the
courses than under the past practice
of turning the Interior Departments
share of the profits over to the mis-
cellaneouS receipts of the Treasury.
Legally, of course, it has every right,
but as a practical matter the In
terror Department has no business
running municipal golf courses in
Washington. 1t has made a de-
plorable job of it in the past. The
courses have been permitted to de-
teriorate. There has been no real
incentive on anybody's part to go
beyond required maintenance and
niggardly improvement. The lessee
has done what was expected of him;
the Interior Department has sought
nothing else. The Star confidently
looks forward to the time when the
golf courses will be turned over to
the District Recreation Board, to be
operated al low fees for the golfers,
not for private profit

In view of the character of the warn
ings, one cannot doubt that the cost of
the 1914 victory will be American casu-

means that we will be a grief-stricken

Mr.. Goudy to Lecture

Goudy lectures on type. His appear
ance at the Whittall Auditorium of
the Library of Congress tomorrow
afternoon undoubtedly will attract
an audience competent to appreciate
not only what he has to say, but the
motives and the experience which
prompt him to say it,
Mr.. Goudy is member of family
of geniuses already legendary In
collaboration with his wife, the for
mer Bertha NJ Sprinks, and their
son, second Frederic, he has
created a completely new typog-
raphy. Born at Bloomington, Illi-
nois, seventy-eight years ago, he
began his career as an accountant.
Quite by accident he was DETECTED
into printing. With C. Lauren
Hooper as a partner, he set up the
Camelot Press in Chicago in 1895.
There he sketched the type face still
known-and still popular-as Came
lot. An alphabet he devised for
clothing concern in 1903 brought
him means enough to establish the
Village Press, a studio and workshop
devoted to the art of books. He
moved, as the mood suited him, to
Massachusetts, and then to New
York. On several occasions fire
ruined his plant, but nothing-not
even recurrent poverty-hurt his
spirit.

If Hitler had thought that the fight

Living Cost Rise

Although it presumably will not
satisfy those who prefer guesswork
to facts, the ost-of-living report by
Secretary of Labor Perkins is both
an effective and a timely answer to
demands for higher wages on the
ground of greatly increased living
costs in 1943.
Miss Perkins report, based on a
survey by the Bureau of Labor Sta
tistics, is effective because it shows
that the prices of staple items which
workers buy in retail markets rose
only 3.5 per cent last year. This is
much less than the rise in either
1941 or 1912, and it is the best an
sWer to the claims of certain labor
leaders who have been saying that
because of skyrocketing costs the
workers they represent have been
unable to maintain a decent stand
ard of living. On the face of the
BIS figures, this simply is not
fact. 1t is also pertinent to note in
this connection that during 1943,
when living costs were rising 3.5
per cent, the total income paid to
individuals went from Sis 900 900 900
to $l42 100000 0,000-an increase of
about % per cent. It is impossible
to say what part of this consists of
higher earnings by people who were
working in 1912 and what part is
represented by wages paid persons
who were added to the working force
in 1943. 1t seems a reasonable as
sumption, however, that the actual
earnings of the great majority of
WorkerS-particularly those who are
most vocal in their present demands
for more-have at least kept abreast
OF the advance in the cost of living.
This information is timely because
it is made public in the midst of
most serious threat to the Govern
ment's stabilization program. Some
time ago the President appointed a
special committee to study living
costs and the methods used in COM
putting them. 1t had been hoped
that this committee would have it's
report ready In time to serve as a
guide to an intelligent appraisal of
wage demands predicated on living
costs, but as yet there has been no
indication when the committees
findings will be available. For this
reason, Miss Perkins statement
should be especially helpful at this
particular time.

hundred different faces of type were
cut by Mr.. Goudy himself. Compo-
sition was done by Mrs. Goudy,
presses were operated by Frederic.
Every process of beautiful book
making was carried out within the
family circle-until 1885, when Mrs.
Goudy died. But it is not exclusively
for their collectors items" that
they are famous. Mr.. Goudy and his
associates have influenced the whole
field of modern graphic reproduc-
ton. Their types are recognized and
enjoyed by literally millions of
people who do not understand the
technical differences between them.
1t is good news that Mr.. Goudy's
accumulated drawings, papers and
books of his own design and by other
artists have been purchased by the
Library of Congress for permanent

lsoluting Wushinqtonions

The McCarran "home rule" bill
would not give the Washingtonian a
voice in his own Government, which
is. the Government of the United
States. Under the McCarran bill
the Washingtonian would be treated
as an adolescent participant in some
Junior republic" permitted to go
through the motions of voting for
the sake of play-acting, but denied
the voting rights of a groWn-up
citizen.
The extent of discrimination
against him, in this respect, is en-
phaSized by Senator Burton's sug-
gestion that the McCarran bill be
changed to add two or more presi-
dentially appointed members to the
elected city council" These ap-
pointed members would look out for
the interests of the National Gov
ernment and the interests of tran
sient residents who. maintaining
their voting rights in the States,

so-called local elections.
The National Governments in
tereSts and the interests Of voting
citizens, of course. are adequately
protected in Washington now. They
are protected by the exclusively
controlling Congress, composed of
96 Senators and 435 Representatives,
together with the executive branch
of the Government and all its ap-
purtenances. They are protected,
moreover, by the right of Congress
to establish or abolish any agency it
chooses, any time it chooses, for ad-
ministration of District of Columbia
affairs.
The interests of the National Gov
eminent and of the voting citizen
require no protection on the i'm
potent city council to be set up
under the McCarran bill. AS a
practical proposition, two or more
appointed members, representing
such interests, might not make any
difference. Yet the proposal is in
dicative of trend of thought which
seeks further to separate the inter-
estS of the unrepresented citizen of
Washington from those of the con-
trolling National Government. These
interests should be the same. The
effort should be to give the Wash
ingtonian voting representation in
his Government, not to isolate him
as a nonentity and set him further
apart from his fellow citizens.

increasing efficiency at home. But the
people have been neither understanding
nor alert. In consequence, we have
fallen far short of what we should have
done and there have been costly sins Of
omission and commission.
Now that the great moment is close at
hand and American lives are about to be
sacrificed on a large scale, it is pretty
dreadful to think that these sins should
continue. The price is far too high to
contemplate calmly With the reassen-
bling Of Congress- the people should n
sist upon a President who, putting astie
all fourth-term thoughts, will stand fi.m
against the demands of rapacious and
selfish groups, no matter how closely he
has been allied with them; who will stick
by his program and live up to the frle
words of his messages and speeches.
And they should insist further upon
Congress that will disregard the .p-
preaching election, support the Prei-
dent on sound proposals and cut ,ut
cheap demagoguery Few candid PR
sons will contend that since We a.
tered this war, so far as dometic
management is concerned, we h.ve
had either that kind of President; or
that kind of Congress.
