He does not have the infidelities and imtbecilities of a Hollywood to ‘support, nor must he listen to sena- tors explaining that his country will g0 to the dogs if it joins the World Court. Is the answer, then, that we must [give the country back to the Indians forthwith, and woo the simple life | while squatting placidly under a tree? _—_|Not at all. We simply might remem- ber that the society we have today is not an end, but a beginning. By civilizing ourselves, we have surrounded ourselves with much foolishness; our only hope is that we shall discard most of the foolishness fas we go along, and some dey resch 00|8 state which will repay us for the Member of The Associated Press ‘The Associated Press is exclusively Change in Attitude Perhaps the most interesting thing shout the security program offered to congress by President Roosevelt is not the program itself, but the congres- gional reaction to it. @o far, herdly a voice has been Yaised in opposition to the measure ftself. On the contrary, eriticism seems to be besed almost entirely on the contention that the measure does Bot go far enough. In that fect you have @ yardstick ‘to measure the distance which our viewpoint on such metters hes trav- @led in recent years. Tf such a measure hed been pres- ented to congress at any time before, say, 1933, it would have sroused « @reat deal of protest. It would have been called dangerous experi- mentation, and its attempts to pro- vide protection for the victims of economic stress would have been dub- bed an unAmerican form of coddling, designed to sap our national self- reliance. This comment is not made in cri- ticism of any party or any indivi- duals. Most of us would have looked on it in that fashion. We simply ‘were not ready to admit that things can happen in our country against | which no amount of individual effort could avail. | But now the plan is offered—and | the objection most commonly heard is the charge that it isn’t strong enough; that it does not provide enough security, or promise to pay out enough money. Washington correspondents agree that there is no question whether the | security bill will pass; the question is whether it will not be amended to give greater benefits. | We have had a revolution in this country, after all; and it has taken place in our minds. Our point of view has shifted. We don’t look at things with the same eyes that we used half a dozen years ago. Yesterday's dangerous radicalism 1s the height of today’s conservatism— in this one field, at any rate. Savage Civilization Benjamin Franklin has been called “the first civilized American”; never- theless, wise old man that he was, he was never entirely sold on the idea that the civilized man is really hap- pier than the untaught savage. All this comes to light in the dis- covery of marginal comments by| Franklin in an old book owned by} the Library of Congress, This book, | published in 1770, undertook to re- view the happiness which civiliza- tion brings, and Franklin scribbled his dissent on the edge of one of the pages. “The difference,” he wrote, “is not 60 great as may be imagined. Hap- piness is more generally and equal- ly diffused among savages than in our civilized societies. No European who has once tasted savage life can afterwards bear to live in our s0- cieties. “The care and labor of providing for artificial and fashionable wants, the sight of so many rich wallowing in superfluous plenty, whereby so many are kept poor and distressed by want; the insolence of office, the | terests.” ea aeene we are going through now. The President Likes It Celebration of President Roosevelt's birthday on Jan. 30 a5 & means of raising new funds to fight infantile paralysis gives the American people @ fine chance to combine pleasure with the advancement of a worthy cause. It is also a timely reminder that the “man-killing” routine of the White House does not, so far, seem to have made a dent in the good health enjoyed by our chief execu- tive, Dr. Ross T. McIntire, White House Physician, 1s authority for the state- ment that the president is actually in better physical condition now than he was when he became president. The presidency is a terrific strain for any occupant of the office; its responsibilities have been multiplied vastly in recent years; but Franklin Roosevelt, far from wilting under the pressure, actually seems to enjoy it. Any doubts that anyone might have entertained, during the 1932 cam- Ppaign, as to his ability to stand up under the taxing White House rou- tine must long since have vanished. Another Lindbergh Trail Now it is reported that Colonel Lindbergh is going to fly the Pacific just as soon as the Flemington trial is out of the way. Coming on the heels of the spectacular flights of ir Charles Kingsford-Smith and Amelia Earhart, this seems to make it fairly certain that we shall have one or more commercial air lines to the Orient in the not-distant future. Tentative plans call for @ line link- ing California with Hawaii, the Philippines, and other eastern islands which fly the American flag, and ex- tending on to the Asiatic mainland, A gigantic flying boat with a non- stop range of 3,000 miles is now being tested in the Caribbean sea. Much of the necessary field research has already been accomplished. Americans will not have the slight- | est doubt that Colonel Lindbergh will accomplish anything he undertakes in the way of an ocean flight. And it would be highly fitting if it were his flight which should finally pave the way for regular, over-ocean com- mercial air lines, More Labor Trouble Ahead The “labor front” in the United States was full of alarms and excur- sions last spring and summer. In one way or another most of the dif- ficulties were finally smoothed over— the textile strike was ended, and threatened strikes in the steel and auto industries did not take place— but it becomes increasingly evident that the settlement was to a large extent temporary rather than perma- nent. It is reported now that labor lead- ers are proposing an alliance among employes of five great industries— textiles, oil, steel, autos, and tobacco. Sponsors of the move assert that employers in these industries are or- ganized to fight unionization, and Predict that the workers must be “mobilized to fight for their own in- All of which contains the possibil- ities of large-scale trouble, The ade ministration would be well advised to start now to work out some plan for @ peaceable solution of all difficulties.

(Tribune Washintgon Correspondent) The Government Decides to Go Into the Newspaper Business . . . “No” Is Verdict of Roosevelt on Town- send Plan... The Navy Takes a Peaceful Stand. THE | Washington, Jan. 26.—Extra! ‘The administration will soon give birth to an official government daily newspaper, as a result of its troubles with the supreme court. “The Federal Register” will be the Paper’s name. It will have an editor and « staff and the committee which Tecommended its establishment to the National Emergency Council urged that “the editorial office be or- ganized to handle material with the Same dispatch as an efficient news- Paper office...” Of course you may find the Reg- ister a bit dull. It will be the size and style of the Congressional Rec- ord and is designed as a complete record of administrative orders, rules, and regulations complementary to statutory laws. Tt will contain all presidential proclamations and executive orders, rules and regulations enforceable against people, NRA codes, public notices, and @ few items such as bills acted upon by the president. Dull or not, it will be important. ‘The supreme court has preceded the spanking it gave the government in the ofl case by administering a virtual tongue-lashing to a Depart- ment of Justice lawyer who couldn't explain how a citizen could find out what order or regulation he might be violating. Soon now, the citizen will be able to look that up in the Federal Reg- later, which might well dedicate its fist issue to the court. Congress probably will also be asked to provide that all executive orders, rules, and regulations issued in carrying out its laws be numbered consecutively and published by the public printer, who will compile an annual volume of them. Subsequent orders involving pen- alties for violation, as of codes, wouldn't be valid unti] so published. Mcanwhile, the Library of Congress would be given the huge job of com- piling and publishing all rules and regulations in effect before the act Providing for the new ones. And New Deal legislation delegat- ing powers to the president would be more strongly buttressed. NO AND NO, MR. TOWNSEND Roosevelt quite sure these days what a navy is supposed to be used for. For the first time in years, the! annual report of the secretary of the | navy contains no statement of United States naval policy. Last year, in Gecretary Claude Swanson’s report, you could read that the “fundamental” naval policy was— “To maintain the navy in suffi- cient strength to support the national Policies and commerce, and to guard the continental and over-seas posses- sions of the United States.” General policies included: “To protect American lives and property .. . To develop the navy to a maximum in battle strength and ability to control the sea in defense of the nation and its interests ... To support American interests, espe- cially the development of American foreign commerce and the merchant marine.” Over at the State Department, the boys are amused at the omission of all that in Swanson’s latest report. They suggest it may be the result of word from the White House. Secretary Hull and Roosevelt have publicly renounced the old idea that the navy and its marines would be sent around to bombard or invade a for- eign shore whenever a bunch of tebels damaged @ piece of American property. And of course the implication of controlling the seas and protecting our commerce was that the navy would guarantee “freedom of the seas” for our shipping at all costs. So it didn’t quite jibe with a new foreign policy which Roosevelt is working out, which would discourage American ships from sailing into war zones and inviting incidents which, if we insisted on backing up our “rights” with the navy, might drag us into war, (Copyright, 1935, NEA Service, Inc.)
