Dawes, good Republican and head of the president's emergency corporation, is president. Among other officers \are John Hays Hammond, James Rowland Angell, president of Yale University; Frank O. Lowden, Nicholas Murray Butler and Silas H. Strawn, president of the National Chamber of Com- merce. They have organized a group of “thoughtful, public" spirited men” throughout the country without re- gard to party or occupation, to de- termine both what the nation is thinking and what it ought to think ‘on questions of importance. All par- ties and all viewpoints are repre- sented. The membership totals 5,000. In addition to sending a recent questionnaire to members of this council, the inquiry was sent to a se- lected group of non-members. An- swering a question about German reparations and the international debts, 14 per cent of the council felt they should be cancelled, 32 per cent ‘were for reduction, 41 per cent were for further postponement and 13 per cent failed to vote. On the special committee, 44 per cent favored can- cellation, 32 per cent were for reduc- tion, 15 per cent for further post- ponement and 9 per cent did not an- ewer. Answering the question on the tar- iff, 75 per cent of the council fav- cored reduction as promptly as pos- sible, three per cent wanted a higher tariff and 22 per cent favored the status quo. Of the special group 92 per cent were for prompt reduction, none wanted a higher tariff and eight Per cent favored the present rates. ‘The banking questions were: Should central banks, including the federal reserve, adopt a more positive policy (a) for preventing inflation and de- flation; (b) for utilizing the power of gold and credit to lessen the fluctua- tion of production and unemploy- ment. On question A, the council voted 91 per cent yes and 9 per cent no, while the special group voted 100 per cent yes. To question B the coun- cil's answer was 84 per cent yes and 16 per cent no, while the special com- mittee voted 90 per cent yes and 10 per cent no. The question “Should a National Economic Advisory Council be estab- Ushed to suggest policies for pro- moting the economic betterment of the country?” was divided into three parts. To the general question, 83 per cent of the council answered yes and 17 per cent no, while among the Mon-councillors the vote was 87 per cent and 13 per cent. To part 1, “Should such a council be under the auspices of the govern- ment,” 25 per cent of the council an- swered yes and the same decision was given by an equal number of non- , councillors. * Sixty-two per cent of the council- Jors and 72 per cent of the non-coun- il members favored suggestion two. It was: “Should it be formed by a farger appointive board in which are Fepresented the department of com- Merce and organizations represent- ‘fig labor, agriculture, manufacturinz, Bismarck Tribune 20) cerns to enter into contracts cover- ing production and consumption dis= closed none of the fear of so-called “big business” which marked the last century. The plan is to file such contracts to regulate industry with the government, the instruments to remain effective unless the govern- mental authority having supervision finds, on its own initiative or on complaint, that such agreements are not in the public interest. Eighty-five per cent of the council and 78 per cent of the special com- mittee were in favor of this revolu- tionary proposal which would, in ef- fect, legalize combinations in control of trade as an antidote to business in- stability. Man-Made Dangers The Cuban earthquake luckily turned out far less severe than early Teports indicated. Still it was enough of a catastrophe to underline once more the fact that nature, supposedly “conquered” by inventive men who fly through the air and talk through space, can still be an unpredictable , and terrifying source of disaster, These reminders come every so of- ten; earthquakes, hurricanes, cy- clones, landslides, floods and pesti- lences, striking through the flimsy defenses of civilization and empha- sizing mankind’s weakness when op- posed to uncontrollable natural forces. ‘These are things that defy calcula- tion and make safeguards look futile. Ten million dollars worth of bulid- ings in Santiago were knocked down in a few minutes; what had been a smiling and peaceful city one mo- ment was a devastated place of ter- ror and confusion the next. And yet, terrifying as a thing of this kind is, the really frightening part of it all is that such natural calamities are, after all, the very least of mankind's worries nowadays. The} earth may be shaky and insecure, and the blue skies may hold death-deal- ing storms that can be loosed with- out warning, but the thing that makes pessimists of us is the fact that we face other dangers compared to which earthquakes and tornadoes are hardly more important than so many pin pricks. And these greater dangers are dangers we have created for ourselves. We are, these days, more or less in Kublai Khan's position; we hear an- cestral voices prophesying war, to say nothing of other dire possibilities such as revolution, economic break- down and a general collapse of civi- lization; and we do not seem more able to cope with these dangers than we do with the dangers of future earthquakes. ‘Yet they are dangers that we our- selves have brought into existence. They do not come from obscure nat- |ural forces that are heyond control; {they come from things that we have done and are doing. Living in a world whose inanimate forces de-| mand our best thought and our greatest energy, we have somehow raised other problems for ourselves that are infinitely greater. The First Auto amining old newspaper files the oth- er day, discovered that one Joseph Manton, of Providence, actually in- vented an automobile as long ago as 1866; a steam-driven car that was crude, cumberson and awkward, but that managed, nevertheless, to ac- complish a fairly lengthy cross- country road trip without mishap. Manton, the files related, was high- ly proud of his contrivance, but he saw no commercial possibilities in it and eventually stored his car and gave up the idea. Before the great development of the auto could be possible, the internal combustion engine had to be in- vented. And yet—suppose that Man- ton’s car had caught the imagination of science and industry, so that the research and experimentation that ultimately perfected the gasoline mo- tor could have been applied to the small steam engine; would we, today, be driving steam cars?

Wanted—a Revolution (Duluth Herald) It is becoming very clear that what this world needs most at this moment is a first-class revolution—in Japan. The world probably won’t get it right away, but it is some comfort to know that it is bound to come some time. It has been explained that in Jap- an, in a situation like that which arose in Manchuria and then at Shanghai, the emperor and the war lordes ARE the government.

And here is WILSON’S REPLY On Feb. 11, 1918, President Wilson replied to the speeches of Chancellor von Hertling of Germany and Count Czernin of Austria-Hungary in an address before congress, setting forth his four requirements for peace. First—Each part of the final set- tlement must be based upon the es- sential justice of that particular case and upon such adjustments as are most likely to bring a peace that will be permanent. Second—Peoples and provinces are not to be bartered. Third—Every territorial settlement involved in this war must be made in the interest and for the benefit of the populations concerned. aspirations shall be accorded the ut- most satisfaction that can be accord- ed them without introducing new or Perpetrating old elements of discord.

D., Feb. 1, 1932. Editor, Tribune: The article under the heading: “Our Own Doles” as printed in a re- cent issue of The Tribune, and which originally appeared in the Chicago Tribune contains much food for thought. After reading this article one can readily see that in seeking to do too much good one can actually do much harm. Instead of helping, fone can actually hinder the return of prosperity. When people once find out that they can live at ease at the expense of the charitably inclined, when they thoroughly havé inoculat- ed into their systems the fact that the. drone fares better than the worker bee, we are going to have a mighty hard time convincing them to the contrary. Instead of it being a humiliation to jaccept public aid, there are many who have come to look upon such as their right and privilege. In former years, those who could not keep themselves, or whose relatives could not or would not provide for them, Fourth—All well-defined national] were given necessary care at the ——— REL CHAPTER XLVIII OSALIE occasionally inserted an explanatory phrase; Ann inter- rupted once or twice; Cecily asked several questions; but, on the whole, the three women sat quietly and listened while Grand kept right at it, standing on the hearth rug and talking on and on and on. And even after he had imprinted a kiss on Ann’s brow, and another on the top of Cecily’s head (she had ducked), and had quivered his voice into the words, “God bless you, my darlings, God bless you,” and had gone from the room with Rosalie, who was trying to weep, Ann and Cecily continued sitting still and saying nothing. Finally Ann said, “Well.” It had the effect of having been dropped from a height to a hard place, though it landed in fair order. Cecily asked, “Do you feel as foolish as I feel?” 2 “Pushed out of the nest,” sald ‘Ann. They smiled together then, but not happily; fearfully, rather, and shamefacedly. “No, but really,” Cecily said, “what do you think, Ann?” “Nothing. I’m stunned. I'm flat. What do you think?” “I'm afraid to stir off of this sofa, I wouldn't pinch myself for a dollar.” “He had the receipt. You made him show it to you. Ciss, you were dreadful.” “Yes, and you said, ‘Let me see it, Defore I even had it in my hand.” She looked at her watch. “It's @ quarter past one,” she an- nounced, as good news, and added, “Barry left at half-past 12.” I couldn’t sleep,” Ann said. “Cissy, let’s see if we can’t find a few words and put them together and talk.” “It would be fun,” Cecily sug- gested, “to télephone to the boys. ‘They've had time to get home.” “So late?” said Ann, It is as though in this country, if the war department decided to seize Mexico to provide summer homes for its assistant secretaries, the whole issue were suddenly and completely placed in the hands of the president, the secretaries of war and the navy and the commanding generals and admirals, with the rest of the cabinet and all of the people bidden to go off in a corner and shut up. All this is because Japan is ruled by a son of heaven who. because of his heavenly origin, can do no wrong. Western civilization was governed by the same kind of poppycock for many generations, but it isn’t any more. And the time will come when the ‘come it will as surely as tomorrow's dawn. “Fun!” said Cecily. “But what could we say?” Ann mused. “I-mean—what could we say over the telephone? Where could we begin?” "I'm not going to say much of anything,” Cecily dared to get off the sofa, though she did not pinch herself. “I’m going to be sort of mysterious—a leaf from Rosalie’s book. I'm feeling too silly for sense. Barry will loathe it. Ob, fun! But I'll tell him to come on Saturday—" “Yes,” said Ann, and stood. “I think I'll just tell Phn—" Cecily had gone, cm ANN looked timidly across the Toom to the exact spot on the hearth rug where Grand had stood, his hands clasped over the fourth button on his vest, his round white beard moving gently with his words, his head nodding his periods. He had said, unmistakably, while Cissy there on the horsehair sofa pouted and looked sullen, that the dearest desire of his life and of Rosalie’s life had ever been to see their dar- lings married to good, worthy men who loved them and whom they loved in return. So much was true and easy to believe. But—going on from there? Rosalie had said that it was pleasanter than an expensive hotel. That it combined the qualities of the best hotels and the best private homes and was neither. That it was beautifully furnished, with a guaranteed temperature of 72 throughout the winter, a1 charm ing, quaint dining room with wee tables for two, and larger tables, if one desired them, and each table had a sweet little pink-shaded light on it, Cecily had interrupted somewhere about there, and had remarked that it took quantities of money to buy livings in places of that sort. Unheedingly, Grand had gone on and on, Perhaps Ann had not at- tended as well as she should have attended. She was tired out and sleepy. For years and years, Grand had said, Rosalie and he had gladly, more than gladly, indeed, made a home for their girls. There had been so much of that—so much of the home that he and Rosalie had gladly made for girls who had loved their home so deeply that they were reticent about leaving it. “Timid feet,” he had said, And-soon he was being stern about timid feet and reticence, and was comparing them with self-reliance, and had seemed to confuse self-reliance with love, and ladies who knew their own minds, and, suddenly, had roundly denounced from out of whole cloth, coquettes and flirts. Presently Ann had noticed that Cecily looked odd, and pink, and pucker faced, though Grand had said only, in 80 far as Ann had heard, tl he and Rosalie were past middle age. He went on to say, as Ann listened more intently, that they feared, aye, almost dread. ed another winter in this great, cold, dtaughty place, with the hard- ships and insufficiency of fuel, He feared for Rosalie’s health. Rosalie feared for his health—a recurrence of last winter's serious, all but fatal illness. Fear, however, would not force them to evade their duty. Never had their duty been evaded. ‘They were not, now, evading it. As Mr. Carmichael had pointed out— one must be able to discern where one’s real duty lay.

But in those days we did not have the spectacle of able-bodied men and women who were too independent, or let us say too lazy to work, permitted to loll in idleness. County charges had to work—if they were able to do 80. So wouldn’t it be a good plan to return to the county poor farm. Put those unable to look out for them- selves there. Give them plenty to eat, clothes to wear and treat them decently. But do not let us raise up a big brood of “drones” to coddle and pet, who may finally prove our un- doing.

They had paid the money for the livings in May, at a time when the vacancy had occurred, and at a time when their darlings’ futures had seemed planned and secure. They had waited, They had not complained. eee Gacy. so recently scolded con- cerning reticence had, here, spoken right out. “You have paid the money for the livings? Paid it in May? Did they give you a re- ceipt? May I see it?” a Grand had taken the paper from his old bill folder and had bhown it, and Ann had read it word for word with her own eyes. Mr. Carmichael, his friend, his dear friend, his good friend, had advanced the necessary amount, “Six thousand dollars!” Cecily had gasped. “But why should he— why would he lend such a lot of money?” Friendship. Kindness. Solicitude for his friends’ health. Generosity, The Golder. Rule, Any number of reasons. Grand added, however, with a sort of light pride, that he had insisted upon Mr. Carmichael’s taking the mansion and the ground: —the entire’ estate, in fact—as a Pledge for the amount he had ad- vanced, Rosalie had said, “Merely a pledge. Not a mortgage nor—um— anything disagreeable of that sort. A pledge. You know, dears, you un- derstand?” The dears either knew and under- stood or pretended that they did so. Ann had thought, “All the time— I wonder for how long—they have hated it just as Cissy and I have hated it. That is funny. Or—is it funny? Odd that Cissy doesn’t laugh. I must not laugh. It would be rude to laugh. I'll wait to laugh.” Ann had said, “Yes, Grand,” and, “Surely,” and, “Of course,” to his plan concerning Mary-Frances, She would, he presumed, make her home with Philip and Ann.’ He did insist, however, he must insist that, as often as once a week, at least, Mary-Frances should come to him and to Rosalie and present to them, as Ann and Cecily had al- ways presented, her girlish prob- lems (if any existed), her youth! hopes, her maiden aspirations. “And now, my darlings, my little sirls—always girls to me, though soon to be women—” And then the Kisses, and the blessings, and Ce- cily and Ann had been left alono, and neither of them could find a word to say until Ann had dropped her “Well” down from a high place. Cecily returned on tiptoes. She looked dog-gullty and as radiant as & sunrise, “Barry's coming,” she said. “I couldn't stop him, I tried to, angel, but I’couldn’t, He won't drive in.
