Arthur Garfield Hays, a lawyer who has spent the; last decade or so going about the country helping various underdogs in their fights for liberty, believes that freedom in the United States is rapidly sinking out of sight. Mr. Hays expresses his opinion in a new book, “Let Freedom Ring.” in which he recounts some of his own | experiences with the modern American attitude. He seems profoundly discouraged. He tells, for instance, of one man who was arrested his way to be courteous and attentive. Courtesy is a little thing. but it is highly important The man who is surly and g! ern business. to realize it. y has no place in mod- And business, more and more, is coming A DRUG CZAR? Old Mother Nature is a pretty good doctor, if allowed to have her own way; and, as a result, a lot of quack and near-quack physicians are getting rich in this broad land of ours. Robert P. Fischelis. secretary of the New Jersey Board of Pharmacy, tells about it in the June issue of the American Druggist. He says that Americans are spending millions ef dollars yearly on worthless rem- edies, which “get by” because sooner cr later they get the credit for cures which Mother Nature herself | effects. He urges the creation of an Institute of Pharmacy, headed by a “drug czar,” which would unmask useless Preparations that mask as remedies. It sounds like a good idea. The American people have a strong tendency to spend their money on highly for reading the Declaration of Independence; of a Penn- sylvania coal town mayor who, breaking up a union meeting, announced that “Jesus Christ himself couldn't speak in Duequesne on the labor‘question”; of another speaker who was hissed when he quoted a remark of Lincoln’s dealing with the right of the people to amend or overthrow their government; of a newspaper woman arrested in the Passaic strike, three minutes after the riot act had been read, for “failing to disperse within a an hour.” Back of this spirit of oppression Mr. Hays sees fear as the compelling force. Our people, he believes, are growing afraid of freedom; they look askance at any- one who proclaims the principles which motivated the fathers of this nation. “Those who believe in the old American ideals,” he writes, “are today regarded as dangerous innovators.” : The issue that he raises is worth thinking about. We are very fond of rendering lip service to the founders of the country. We cherish the Declaration of Independence and revere the Constitution; too often, without taking the trouble to read or understand either of those remarkable documents. We worship Thomas Jefferson and shudder at any modern American who tries to carry out Jefferson's preachings. What does all of this mean? Are we in fact, giving up our liberties forever? Has the good old word, “freedom,” ceased to appeal to us? It may be so. Yet, after all, there is room for hope. Our present attitude is a product of the war. Intol- erance and hatred were abroad in the land in those days, and they dug in. But they will not last. They cannot. Our past is too strong. Chemists have a law which “to every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.” This law applies to human developments as well as to chemical experiments, The pendulum has swung fer toward conservatism; it will swing the other way, just as far. Onur prosperity has lulled us to sleep temporarily, net permanently. Demoeracy will be in style again. It is too much @ part of our national self to remain unpopular for- ever. THE BACKWOODS PASSES The great army of American vacation seekers Teady is on the march. For the next two months and More, automobile loads of men, women and children ‘will be leaving cities and towns daily, bound for re- Taxation in new scenes. These metor parties will cover many thousands of miles. Hardly 9 ceunty in the United States will fail te see some of them. Yet, for all this wandering far afield, hardly any of the motorists will see any real old-fashioned “backwoods” country. It wasn’t many years ago that every state had its backwoods. The term didn’t so much refer to actual forest lands; it meant isolated, thinly settled regions where the current of life was always half a century behind times—places where new ideas, new styles, new trends in thought and action, never penetrated until long years after the rest of the country had adopted them. Such places are hard to find now. Go into the smallest village you can find. The chances are you will sée girls dressed just as the girls dress in New York and Chicago. You will find people talking about the same things people in the big cities are discussing. ‘They will know just as much about the news of the dey as anyone. If you go prepared to apply the term “hick,” you will find very, very little eecasion to use it. This change represents a greater revolution in our mational life than we often realize. The old barriers You will, now and then, meet people who deplore all of this. They talk of “standatdization,” as if it were some frightful curse. They feel that we have lost something in this new uniformity of culture.

Am I or am I not to be allowed to hand myself back to my Creator and say, ‘Will you be so kind as to pulp this worn out article and remanufacture it, if pos- sible, without any of the glaring defects which have made it so troublesome to myself and others?’ “Let no controversialist try to evade the point by assuring mé that I shall survive, not by myself, but as the just man made perfect. He might as well tell me the chariot of Pharaoh survives in the Rolls-Royce. When I use the word ‘I’ as I frequently do, I mean myself with all my imperfections, if any, on my head. “I mean the celebrated G. B. S., almost unbearably individualized, with his consciousness and his memor- ies, his tricks and his manners, complete and exact in his G. B. essence. Otherwise the controversy is about nothing.” SPENDING, SAV! AND CONSUMING (New York Times.) Not long ago, Wall Street was much impressed by a series of articles written in collaboration by Messrs. Foster and Catchings and leading to the conclusion that the problems of industry could be solved only by the consumer’s decision to save less and spend more. The actual contention of the writers was not quite so sweeping as that; they admitted the theoreti i ety of reduced spending and increased saving when aggregate c mers’ demand should have outrun pro- ducers’ facilities. But the gist of the argument w that the present industrial dilemma is a producing ca pacity in excess of visible consumption. The citizen who spends his income increases consumption and erefore helps to establish an equilibrium. But if he his income and invests it, directly or indirectly, in securities issued by manufacturing concerns to en large their plant, he thereby helps to increase produc- tive facilities while reducing potential consumption. if this comsettion of the duty of the thrifty was it startling to disciples of Poor Richard and the Parable of the Talents, it at least fell in with the mood prevalent on Wall Street and in such industries as had begun to wonder where they would find a mar- ket, without concei in prices, for their ambitiously- extended output. To disinterested persons, however, the reasoning seemed entirely academic. Their natural comment was that the average citizen spends or saves, and will presumably continue to do 50, according to his rsonal character or circumstances. Therefore, while he argument that he ought to adjust his use of sur- piss income to preserving equilibrium in trade might unanswerable economically, practically it would get exactly nowhere. In the current Century magazine, the same authors return te the discussion, but with a good deal of quali- fication. Individuals as well as companies, they now admit, “must save.” The way out of the di ry net to abandon the ancient virtue of thrift.” Neverthe- less, saving will “cause a deficit of consumer buying, unless the deficit is made up in some other way.” How is this to be done? Their answer is, by “higher real wages.” They even concede that “use of new money in capital faciliti may help to prevent over-produc- tion, through “providing consumers with new money wherewith to buy goods before the new facilities pro- duce any goods.” But this conclusion strikes the reader almost as an anti-climax to the original argu- ment for spending versus saving. It is so far from & new discovery in economic philosophy that it has been the consciously or unconsciously accepted principle ever since the beginning of modern industry. “is Neither can the contention be called new that judi-|_ ciously planned construction of public works will help to solve the over-production problem. The idea of speeding-up work on publie buildings and roads and other government facilities, by way of relieving or averting unemployment, has been actually put into practice for considerably more than a century. The argument of the authors that such expenditure ought to better planned is in line with recent formal dis- cussions by various branches of our government. Messrs. Foster and Catchings emphasize, and quite co1 the absence of satisfactory data on unemploy- uch as could be used in framing policies. But ter also was a subject of warm debate in the United States Senate several months ago, and the statistics will presumably be improved. Even the con- tention that corporations ought to Jay in supplies at a time of trade reaction is familiar.

In preparing soups, one should remember that the most wholesome kinds are made from non-starchy bles, and that food combina- tions must be observed in soups as well agin the meals.
