Inspiration for Today Remember the days of old, consider the years of many generations: ask thy father. and he will w thee; thy elders, and they will tell thee — iteronomy, 32:7, ‘That man is wise to some purpose who gains his wisdom at the expense and from the experience of another.—Plautus, Well Deserved Warning When Federal Judge Andrew Miller lec- fured two North Dakota farmers Wednesday on the sanctity of their loan contracts with the federal government, he sounded a warning which every individual who has dealings with the government would do well to heed. The policy which he suggested to these men holds good for the rest of us, for every- one who gets into trouble with Uncle Sam is liable to get more than he bargained for and the penalty may not always be a mere lecture. Indeed, if these cases become at all common, $t is inevitable that some offenders will go to prison. More significant, even, than the judge's admonition, was the excuse given by these men. They ‘said, it will be recalled, that they had been led to believe that their action in selling mortgaged property would not be penalized and that they were only following the advice which they had heard from political platforms. This advice is all of a piece with suggestions that the farmers unite in “starving out” per- sons who are not agricultural producers; that they refuse to obey the laws, or that they take the law into their own hands. Carried out to . their final stages, these other actions would lead to serious trouble just as was true in the case presented to the court Wednesday. Largely as a result of these teachings there has grown up a feeling that the government is fair prey for everyone, that money borrowed from it need not be repaid, that it is just a gi- gantic grab-bag which will be opened on de- mand if the demand is loud enough and in- sistent enough. 2 Such a view loses sight of the fact that the people themselves are the government and that the stage has just about arrived at which the non-grabbers are going to insist that the grab- bers be punished. Meanwhile, Judge Miller does the public a Bervice by suggesting that a man himself is fesponsible for accepting bad advice if he thooses to act upon it, and that the best policy adherence to the normal conception of per- sonal duty and sound public policy, Incidentally, one cannot escape the conclu- sion that allegiance to certain types of political policy may easily lead to prison. - The ut the offender pleads guilty and is sentenced to 12 ears in prison within 24 hours after the offense was Pommitted, so it must actually have happened. One wonders if 13 years is the limit which could be @ssessed for such a crime in Nebraska and assumes that dee 3 Hie | E RE tia i i H ehind the Scenes in Washington WITH RODNEY DUTCHER @ Fine Hand of Jim Farley Is Seen in Cutting. Attack ... “Might” of Anti-Trust Act Revealed ... British Have No Luck Shushing Munitions Probers . .. Maybe Baruch Twisted Facts a Little. Washington, April 24—Friends of Senator Bronson Cutting of New Mexico are more than ever convinced that the of Jim Parley ts behind the con- test of ex-Congressman Dennis Chavez for Cutting’s seat. One reason is that Farley telephoned the clerk of the senate committee considering the case while it was in session and left word for Chavez to call him when the committee recessed. ‘Then there's the fact that Democratic members of the committee voted as a party unit to permit the con- test, except for Senator “Cotton Ed” Smith of South Carolina, who is one of the independentest old cusses you ever saw. Especially significant to old-timers here was the attitude of Senator Sherman Minton of Indiana, a new member. Minton demonstrated the most violent parti- sanship of all against Cutting. No other reason for Minton’s belligerency being ap- parent, it was generally interpreted as indicat an understanding between Minton and the Farley-Hurja patronage machine, such as green senators usually are anxious to have. eee NO CHANCE FOR McNUTT Minton, according to Capitol Hiil gossip, hopes to sell Farley on the vice presidential aspirations of Gov- ernor Paul McNutt of Indiana. Minton and McNutt have been old side-kicks in the American Legion. Both have belonged to the celebrated “kingmakers” clique in that organization. Someone apparently has kidded McNutt into believing that he has a chance to replace Jack Garner on the 1936 Roosevelt ticket, The idea happens to be cockeyed, = Although many Democrats will support Cutting against Chavez unless Chavez produces a stronger case than he has thus far advanced, Cutting’s progressive friends have become somewhat more worried—and angry. ‘Two more committee votes and two votes on the sen- ate floor are likely to be necessary before the contest is concluded. Meanwhile, the evidence—involving validity of 1300 votes, which is approximately equivalent to Cut- ting’s margin in the election returns—will be spread out. PROBERS WON'T SHUSH If the British government wanted action on its pro- test against exposure of old scandals relating to its relations with American banking houses before this na- tion was persuaded to enter the World war, it got it from the senate munitions committee. As soon as it learned the British ambassador had urged the state department to work against revelation of his government's communications with the Morgan firm, the committee decided to take no chances. It immediately ordered a subpena of records in the Morgan offices. ‘MIGHT’ OF THE LAW Dr. Walton H. Hamilton, member of the Na- tional Industrial Recovery Board, before the senate finance committee: “The law, among other things, provides for confiscation of goods shipped in interstate com- merce in violation of the anti-trust act. The rec- ords show that there have been confiscated during his 40 years, 40 cartons of cigarets, and with very great force, the department of justice has a foot- nete stating that these were released under bond.” ‘The idea was two-fold: It would be harder lor the administration to call the committee out of the Morgan files after it was actually in than when merely preparing to open them up. And it would be impossible for anyone to sneak the records out after they were covered by sub- pena. Previously, the committee had ignored a milder pro- test by the British ambassador against its study of the pre-war records of the Guaranty Trust company of New York. And the investigators found enough in those rec- ords to stimulate an appetite for the Morgan files. eee THIS CHANGES THE STORY Benny Smith, the famous—and cagey—little Wall Street operator, told a different story than the one Bar- Py ney Baruch told about the time Benny had delivered | 5000 shares of New York shipbuilding stock to Baruch’s | crats, office. Baruch had made it sound as if Benny had tried to wish the stock off on him to obtain his participation in & deal based on secret knowledge of future naval con- tracts. He hadn't explained, as Smith did, that his brokers had actually paid Smith for the stock. Or that it wasn’t until afterward, when the company acquired naval orders, that Baruch turned back the stock. “It looks as if Baruch tried to make you the patsy,” someone remarked to Smith after his appearance be- fore the munitions committee, “Well, I guess the less said about that, the better,” Benny replied.
