Mencken at the expense of the service clubs, “Main street” and “Babbits.” He said Mencken, however, served a good purpose in his strik- ing flings—he kept down that self- complacency that is likely to creep in among workers for good. Whatever Mencken may say, said the commissioner, the world is get- ting better. A century ago 200 crimes were punishable with death in Eng-| land, women worked in the harness in coal mines. In place of the cruel spirit that dominated life in those days, America now sheds the spirit of charity on the entire world, wherever misfortune and disaster let misery Greece, and even bolshevik Russia. This, he said, was due to the Amer- ican ideal of happiness, the desire to spread sunshine everywhere. No Mus- solini with fascism could do that, nor all the Lenins and Trotzkys of bol- shevism.
