Interesting news and perhaps important. Who can tell? If the speed and celerity with which the kid- nhapers of the young lumber heir were captured Berve as a lesson to other would-be criminals, it may mean that the wave of abductions which has shamed America will end soon. It seems that getting the money is comparatively easy. Being able to spend it is something else again. Young Mr. and Mrs. Waley managed to pass only $300 of their share of the ransom before they were caught. Now they face long prison terms, perhaps even the death sentence. It is trite to repeat the fact that crime doesn’t pay. Whe Weyerhaeuser case is a good deal more éonvincing. eee Japan’s latest exploit in bringing the east- ern part of the Asiatic continent more firmly under her domination is only another step in a process which has been going on for more than @ generation, but it is an important one. Of all the things which have happened during the last year none is more likely to play a more impor- tant part in the long-time history of the world. Until now, despite its obvious weaknesses and the difficulty with which it has saved its “face,” a matter of much importance to the Oriental, China has managed to maintain the fiction that it is an independent government. In this she has been helped by the attitude of foreign nations. But Britain, Germany, France and the Dnited States — particularly the latter — no fonger are strong in China. Our flag has been riven out of the Orient which we opened to World trade. It no longer is possible to do busi- Sess there profitably. The fact that this latest aggression, accomplished by @he mere threat of force after China’s experience in Manchuria and at Shanghai, attracted so little comment $m America is significant and encouraging. Maybe we are now prepared to keep our nose out of matters which gre not our immediate concern and about which we can do nothing anyhow. What Japan is doing to China is Mittle different from what the White Race did to the In- dian in this country. The main difference is that in Asia we have similarity of color which was this @ontinent. — ‘There 1s threat to the peace of the world in the ‘Asiatic situation but it is not as menacing as it seems. Whe Chinese have the terrible patience of the meek. Whey were conquered by the Mongols who later swept up fo the doors of Europe—but in the end they assimilated Mhe invaders, Japanese culture and ambition are hardly Wirlle enough to maintain themselves when they come fnto contact with the Chinese fecundity. ees ‘Tf, as seems possible, the midwest meeting of Repub- Bicans at Springfield, M1, can revitalize the Republican arty, Bive it new vigor and purpose and make it an in- @rument for action by the people, that assemblage may rove to have been of vast importance. However, there is no assurance of this. The odds, Grankly speaking, now favor the Democrats in the next Blection and they likely will continue to do so. This is Proved by the manner in which political commentators, ven those unfriendly to the Roosevelt administration, @iscuss the subject of G. O.

That they will be able to do it in so short a time fas the 17 months between now and the next election seems doubtful. There still is much difference of opinion between the various factions and geographical divisions im the party, as is illustrated by Governor Lowden’s espousal of a plan whereby the farmer will get the same kind of benefit from a government arrangement as in- dustry gets from the tariff and an Iowa leader's attack on the present farm adjustment program as one which pays farmers for letting their fields fill with wpeds. + ‘The least which can come from the meeting, however, fs the benefit which accrues to every democracy when (ppposition is needed to insure adequate and sound cun- @ideration of every measure and may easily be the means ‘$f preventing bad legislation or of forcing good laws now is numerically insignificant, flay operation remains to be determined.

Advice of Frarikfurter’s Group Prevails ... Richberg and Johnson Through. Washington, June 12.—President Roosevelt didn’t have enough faith in NRA to fight for it in the face of considerable opposition of long standing, a stunning U. 8, supreme court decision, and public apathy. His decision to abandon NRA and forsake the old code plan for a new skeletonized program was a decision not to make NRA symbolic of the whole New Deal and stake the fate of his administration on the least popular of the New Deal agencies. In all probability, the president will yet go to bat on the supreme court issue. But he listened to a large group of advisers who told him he needed a sturdier steed to ride to that war than the critter reared by Gen. Hugh Johnson and Donald Richberg. There were many who urged him to “go out and fight.” Richberg and Johnson pleaded with him to ask congress for a new recovery act which would give the narrowest possible construction to the court’s dicta on interstate commerce powers in the Schechter decision. That would have meant a new network of codes, omitting only such obviously local enterprises as clean- ing and dyeing shops, restaurants, retail stores, slaughter houses and barber shops. It would have left the great bulk of business under NRA, Springfield, Ilinois—1935 Your Personal Health By William Brady, M.

Fresh fruit DOORS LEFT OPEN Legally and technically, there could be little valid ob- jection, once the new act was revamped to meet the court's opinion ds to delegations of power. The decision leaves many doors ajar. The New Deal had every right to take such course and bring up a test case under the new law to try to find out just when the court felt intrastate commerce had a “direct” effect on interstate commerce as distinguished from “indirect” effect, which, under the Schechter decision, provides no ground for federal regulation. So few understood the limits of the decision, however, that any such course surely would have been popularly regarded as open defiance of the court. Nevertheless, the night before the press conference at which Roosvelt disclosed his intention, Richberg, John- son, and General Counsel Blackwell Smith of NRA were ure that Roosevelt would revive the code structure for most of industry. Dinner - Crab, shrimp, lobster or oyster cocktail or chowder or soup. Fresh fish with greens in salad or sauce. Roast meat or fowl or steak. Baked potato, including the'skin. Two other fresh vegetables. Home ground whole wheat cakes, rolls or biscuit, with butter, honey or syrup. Cheese, Parmesan, = Fresh fruit dessert with cream or evaporated milk. luts. ‘JUNK THE WORKS’ The group of advisers whose viewpoint Roosevelt finally accepted was headed by Prof. Felix Frankfurter, close friend of Justice Brandeis and of many prominent young New Deal lawyers. The essence of their plea may be paraphrased as follows: “Junk the whole works and build up substitutes that can be enforced and will achieve the objectives originally sought by NRA. “NRA isn't being enforced and can’t be enforced. Employers are chiseling on wages and hours and many codes are ignored. NRA is loaded, both as to Personnel and established policies, against labor and con- sumers. “The only way labor standards can be enforced is by the labor movement itself, which can be strengthened through the Wagner bill. for regulation of industty. ‘But it would’ be fools to lor of Ty. i be fe jump into another far-reaching experiment without first By FRANK 8.
