Self-regard is another native
emotion not to be despised or
suppressed, but educated, di-
rected, and used. At no point
have conventional m o ralists
done personality more disserv-
ice than in their disparagement
Of self-love They sometimes
WELD the word "selfishness"
like a bludgeon, cracking down
on all forms Of self-considera-
ton until sensitive consciences
are persuaded that whatever Is
to ones own advantage is likely
to be wrong. Shakespeare's
sound sense cannot be denied:
Self-love, my liege, is no.
so vile a sin
AS self-neglecting.
Indeed, a greater than Shake
Speare based his summaries of
teh moral law squarely on self
regard. Love thy neigh
Dor as myself" involves the
proposal that we start with the
love of self, take its measure,
give full scope to its meaning at
its best, and then love our
neighbor in the same way"
whatsoever we would that men
should do unto you, even so do
we also unto them" is impossi-
bic Of fulfillment unless one be-
gins with Reconsideration and
then extends the same consider
alton TO others. Jesus ethic
plainly involves not the suppress
sion Of self-regard but its sub
limation.
From sclf-regard when it
goes wrong spring vanity and
pride, avarice and greed, mean
ness and cruelty. Some people
live habitually in the spirit with
which Mascagni dedicated his
opera, The Masks: ITO myself,
with distinguished esteem and
unalterable satisfaction" When,
however. it is proposed as a
remedy that we cease caring for
ourselves and care only for 9TH
ers, when self-regard and altru-
ism are thus set over against
each other as though they were
mutually exclusive, we are
faced with a solution both psy-
chologically impossible an
uhically false. We cannot and
ought not TO stop caring for our
selves. Our initial business in
life is TO care so much for our
selves that I tackles Me, deter
mined 10 make out of him some
thing worth while. II we fail in
meeting that, we fail in every
thing. Jesus principle, there
fore, is psychologically unassail-
able: Unless a man knows how
TO love himself well, he will
have neither criterion nor means
for loving his ncighbor; unless
he has considered profoundly
and wisely what he would like
done TO himself. he will have no
test of how he should treat 9TH
ers. Great religion, with far pro-
founder insight than conven-
tional moralism, has always
seen this truth and has made
this primary appeal candid and
unashamed to mans self-regard.
In battling practical situa-
tons the slaves of selfishness
are pathetic, but so, too, are the
slaves of mistaken unselfish-
ness. Here is a typical daughter
OF a possessive and demanding

Howard Meyers Colmer of Pas

getting an earful and a liberal
education and building up quite
a file of testimony on postwar
planning as viewed by some of
the best business brains in the
country. What good il will do

amazing and discouraging to OBJ

more people get into one of
these postwar business discus
sions, the conversation starts
shooting all over the place like
sparks from a pinWhecl.
In a way, this isn't hard TO
understand The subject and its
qualifications are so big that no
one knows where to begin. If the
talk seems futile and the outlook
hopeless, that's natural.

The idea that all capital must

While he calls war prosperity

Pointing to his own company,

pended by the studio for refus-
ing to play role in Fired

Holzer said the studios refusal
to pay Cummings salary during
the suspension was arbitrary
and unwarranted, and award
ed the actor S10,250 in back
salary. The ruling will favor Ill
