A well-publicized man, since much of the World war propaganda was centered about him and his actions, he nevertheless managed, in time of peace, to live up to the reputation @cquired in war. ‘Thus, when all the rest of the world ‘was having its troubles and advertis- ing them to the neighbors, we have heard very ttle from Belgium. That little nation has gone along under the confident leadership of its trusted king without fuss or beating of po- litical tom-toms. Not that Belgium has escaped the general effects of the world-wide eco- nomic debacle or that it has not had problems, It has faced them without number. In addition to those which have confronted other nations, it has had to deal with a ticklish racial issue. Carved out of the Netherlands by revolution only a little more than @ century ago, this little country has a sharp division in nationality and language to contend with, The majority of the people speak a kind of French but residents of the Flemish provinces speak a tongue more closely allied with the Dutch and German. This fact, alone, has contributed to a sense of division within the nation. But in recent years, despite other} stresses which usually magnify a) trouble source such as this, Belgium) has been at peace. Her guiding gen- ius has been the towering personality | of the king. It has brought unity Gespite a natural tendency toward di- vision. It has inspired confidence at| a time when it was sorely needed. In| short, King Albert was, to his own) people, a modern parallel of our own George Washington, “first in war, first in peace and first in the hearts; of his countrymen.” His deeds as a warrior pale into insignificance when compared with his achievements in the more diffi- cult, if less spectacular, field of wisely governing a nation. A Military Asset Public reaction to operation of the airlines by the army contains some surprising angles, among them one that it might be a good thing because our military fliers need the experi- ence, ‘This, of course, is not entirely true. ‘Military flying is similar to commer- cial flying only in that both kinds Tequire airplanes. The one demands daring and a willingness to take chances. The other calls for caution and the utmost in safety. ° Yet, the idea behind the proposal, that of making our civil aviation a bulwark of our aerial defenses in time of trouble, seems sound enough. The capacity to fly a plane can be car- ried from the civil to the military Bervice just as easily as it was brought trom the army to the airlines in the present emergency. It would seem a step toward greater national safety, if the government is to continue to support the airlines, to require that all civil pilots employed in the airmail service be reserve mem- bers of the army flying corps. A few ‘weeks or @ month of military train- ing annually would keep them in touch with military developments and make of them a reserve force which might be of inestimable value. The cost would be little and in an emer- gency the benefits might be great. _ . Our Worry Relieved Assurances from Postmaster Gen- eral Farley that the airline through the northwest will soon be restored with army fliers brought comfort to Progressive residents of this and other cities which have grown used to the airmail service, Recalling the trouble which was had in obtaining the location of the eirline through this district, many forward-looking citizens could envi- pond sion @ renewal of that fight if the restoration of service were long held fm abeyance. Thus the postmaster general's statement Tuesday was a wause for relief. We can get along without the airmail much easter if ‘we know that it soon will be restored to us and that the route for the morthwest line will not be changed in the meantime. chat eeeccesescesece 7.20 seve 5.00 250 Minnesota’s Spy System Down in Minnesota the state has instituted, under the leadership of Governor Olson, a spy system which is designed to rid that commonwealth of crime. Every officer of the law is asked to Tepoft to state headquarters all mat- ters which he conceives to be of gen- eral importance. A system for dis- tributing information 1s contemplated in the hope of making the lot of the major lawbreaker a more difficult one. Strictly local affairs, of course, would be handled without troubling the state agency. Something needs to be done, surely, with things what they are. Yet there are possibilities of danger in the idea if carried too far. All of us want a good police system which will pro- tect us from criminals. None of us would like to see it develop, as spy systems have done in other lands, until it becomes a menace to political integrity and a violation of the rights of honest citizens, There is little likelihood of that in| America, but the possibility should not be ignored when such proposals are advanced. Lent Traditionally, the season of Lent is one dedicated to inner searchings for the light of faith and to wise and \reverent service to those spiritual |forces by which, in the last analysis, the world is turned to good or to jevil. Humanity is the willing slave of acquired opinions and, often enough, @ helpless victim of its own half-tu- tored mind. And if, after the experi- ences of the last 20 years, it hasn't learned that its much-boasted prac- tical knowledge isn’t enough to assure it of either peace or contentment, then it is almost beyond teaching. Even the lords of science, appalled at the consequences of some of their own achievements, are beginning to say that science isn't enough. The ‘mood of Lent has persisted unchanged through ages of profound and vio- Jent change. And it will persist when all that seems newest and most wonderful in the sciences has become old, obsolete and without meaning.

(The Aneta Panorama) | Some of the pro-Langer newspapers | profess to believe that the reason Val- | ley City was selected for the state | convention of the Nonpartisan League | instead of Bismarck, is because it | would make it harder for Leaguers to attend the meeting, and thus make it easier for the “Nystul faction” to rule the nominating convention. Such contention is silly. With Lan- | jgers’ horde of appointees, possessing |fine cars, many of them owned by the state, no distance within the state would be too great to get all the Lan- ger supporter together, no matter where the convention was to be held. convention was held in the city audi- torium at Fargo, but no such objec- tion was raised at that time because of the far off location. Why should Bismarck, with all its Political intrigues—and the governor's militia—have priority of claim to the state convention? Delegates from the northeastern corner never remon- strated because they had to travel so many miles to reach the nominating convention at Bismarck; neither did | the delegates from the northwestern | corner of the state remonstrate when | they were compelled to go to Fargo. Then why the objection to the 1934 location of the convention city?

PLE Fer eee Li Ban S| Pets = It Has Sharp Teeth .... Buzzie on Display . . . Ickes Firm on Ofl... Liberals Oppose Lee. By RODNEY DUTCHER (Tribune Washington it) Washington, Feb, 21.— Don't get funny with the New Deal! It bites. Ask Bill MacCracken, Charles Lind- bergh, the airmal contractors, Joe ‘Silverman, the Democratic lobbyists, the boys mixed up in the War De- partment supply contract scandals, and the PWA-CWA grafters. That's only the beginning. This administration has declared war on special privilege and its teeth are es- pecially whetted for these promoters and wranglers of privilege whose operations threaten scandal to the Roosevelt regime.

Prospectors now are permitted to file for permits to drill. If they make discoveries, they can get leases and pay royalties to the government.

Bill MacCracken’s face as he was dragged before the Senate for con- tempt after his hide-and-seek game had ended with a $100 fine for con- tempt of court was a public revelation of the feelings of many other folks who, rather suddenly, find themselves rubbing the seats of their pants. The White House rebuke of Lind- bergh, who had publicized his protest against cancellation of airmail con- tracts before Roosevelt received it, caused almost as much excited com- ment around town as the wild Mac- Cracken-Jurney sequence. Lots of people were grinning sim- ultaneously about both episodes. So reer ‘was taking on the popular eroes! Wilbur, in the interests of conserva- tion, refused to extend the permits. Western senators and representa- tives raised such a howl, claiming the “little fellow” was being victimized for the benefit of big oil companies, that | Wilbur’s order was rescinded.

Lee was George Peek's for general counsel of AAA and Peek’s first defeat at the hands of the Wal- lace-Tugwell combination came when Jerome Frank got that job. Peek then kept Lee in his office as ‘personal counsel.” When Peek was eased out, Lee left in no pleasant frame of mind. The AAA shudders when it what Lee might have done to it turned loose on Capitol Hill as the Farm Bureau lobbyist.
