This, in effect, is what Walter Lippmann, famous com- mentator, told the Society of American Editors the other day, and there is a great deal of truth in what he says. The case which he used for illustration was, almost as a matter of. course, that of the trial of Bruno Richard Hauptmann for the murder of the Lindbergh baby. After detailing how the courtroom was packed, how pho- tographers and radio broadcasters were admitted to the court- room and how the general atmosphere of hurly burly marked the proceedings, he commented: “A judge does not have to admit more spectators than can be seated comfortably in a courtroom, or more than a reasonable number of newspaper men. He does not have to admit cameras, radio broadcasting ma- chinery, special telephones and telegraph apparatus to the courtroom. The streets can be cleared of crowds and traffic kept moving. “Moreover, he does not have to submit to having the case tried in the newspapers. Under any realistic conception of the judicial process, comment on the evi- dence by the newspapers, speakers on the radio, by Julius Tuteur, president of | the Electric Vacuum Cleaner Co. of Cleve- land, O., has signed up to open-an assembly plant for his product’ at Arthurdale. ‘He will lease the govern- ment-built factory there from the Arthurdale Association, homestead- ers’ co-operative group, and employ 40 or 50 of the heads of the. 165. homestead families which will‘occupy Arthurdale when it's completed. Tuteur has promised to abide by all provisions of the old NRA code for his industry. Tuteur was an immigrant boy from Hanover, Germany. Explaining his distinction as the only manufacturer who has come to the aid of the sub- sistence homesteads, he says every- thing he has came from this country and that he “wants to help.” Negotiations with Tuteur were car- ried on by Leroy Peterson, head of the economic development section of resettlement administration. It's hoped to get another small enterprise located at Arthurdale later, as well as others on other homestead projects. i x ek “Chip” Fits on New Job Mr. Lawrence W.

After all, there are lots of worse things than an operation. ‘When contemplating what I should say in this article—I do my best con< templating while rolling 15 morning somersaults; for years I’ve been trying to contemplate while doing my belly breathing exercise, but it is quite ime possible, I find, so I have to do the rolls as well—I thought I should out- line a few of the special diets recommended by eminent authorities, but when it comes right down to it, really I’d rather not. Cynical and sarcastic I may be, but withal tender-hearted and even sympathetic, in a way. If you will pardon the omission of specific diets I'll promise to answer to the beat of my ability any specific queries you may make bearing on that subject provided you spare me pages of history. Honestly I believe practically all we know about the relation of diet to gall bladder trouble and gallstones may be summed up in a few brief sen- tences: 1. Habitual overeating is a factor. 2. Eating too much at an occasional gorge is a factor. 3. Excessive use of condiments, hot sauces is a factor. 4. A diet containing too great proportion of refined or manufactured Heed and too small a proportion of fresh vegetables, greens and fruits is a factor.

That is a matter which it is most convenient to ignore, and yet it is an essential part of those principles of Jeffersonian Democracy to which the new dealers delight to render lip service. Like states’ rights, the Roosevelt administration has abandoned Jefferson's ideals of econ- omy as impractical. In the interests of consistency, it might also abandon its annual practice of eulogizing a the lawyers, is contempt of court. It should be treated as such. “This is where we, as professional newspaper men, have our primary responsibility. Hitherto we have generally taken the attitude that if we refrained from participating in the worst of it, we had done our full duty.

The younger the child the better the domestic result will be. Using the finest needle obtainable, and a binocular loupe to magnify the pect them to administer justice in an orderly way; that we shall attack them if they do not, and that we shall defend them if they do. Then let them choose between the yellow press and the reputable press, and let them find out whose favor counts the more. “I am convinced that this would be sound editorial practice, that the way to meet the competition of the sensationalists is to make an issue, publicly and dra- matically, not against the yellow press as such, for we are not our brothers’ keepers, but against public offi- cials who play its game. I believe we shall find an interested audience. I am certain we shall have the support of a multitude of quiet men and women who are sick at heart over this whole business. And I be- lieve that gradually, as has been done by the press in its long fight against corruption, we shall raise the standards on which American criminal justice is ad- ministered. : “I do not suggest, you will note, that we piously deplore the sensationalism’ of the Lindbergh case and then indulge only in so much of it as we think we have to have to compete for circulation. I suggest that we challenge the police, the judges, the lawyers, who con- nive at it, that we declare that they are subverting the processes of law, that they are acting corruptly, and center public attention on them rather than on the criminal in the dock. There is a newspaper crusade waiting to be conducted here which is every bit as im- portant and far more interesting than crusades about whether an official has taken a bribe. For here the whole process of justice and the dignity of American life are at stake.” It is doubtful if Lippmann wil] prove to be much more than a prophet crying in the wilderness, yet he does point the way for newspapers to be of real service to the community. The press (and this is growing to include the radio) is the only business in America which is protected by the constitu- tion. But that:very protection places upon it the duty of fear- lessly challenging any perversions which tend to destroy “the whole process of justice and the dignity of American life,” for we do have a national dignity to protect and when we have sacrificed it to a national passion for sensationalism we have sold it for much less than a mess of pottage. ; A Factual View One of the best definitions for an optimist is “a man who thinks he is a pessimist” but even a real pessimist has to take note of business facts which lend encouragement to the aver- age man who tries to see things as they are. Here are a few excerpts from the monthly review of the business letter sent out by the Ninth Federal Reserve bank. It makes no propliecies, tells only what already has happened: “Business in the district rose sharply in March as the weather improved from the very unfavorable con- ditions in February.. The adjusted index of bank debits jumped from 71 in February to 76 in March, at which point it was the highest since June, 1931. Coun- try cheek clearings rose from 120 in February to 134 in March, reaching a new high point for the recovery movement. The department store sales index, ad- iysted for seasonal influences and the varying date of Easter, rose from 77 in February to 84 in March, at which level it was only exceeded by one month during the Iast four years. Similar increases occurred in the indexes of miscellaneous and |.c.l freight carloadings and country lumber sales. The business increase ap- parently continued in the first half of April, according to the records of bank debits and country check clear- : “Bank debits and freight carloadings were 13 per day party for Mrs. Roberts’ prizé horse, named “John the Baptist,” to which came that section of Washing- ton society which has nothing better to do than go to birthday parties for prize horses named “John the Bap- tist.” But everybody likes “Chip” and no one in the New Deal plays around more than he with moneyed men who don’t mind spending. So now “Chip” turns up with an appoint- ment as assistant treasurer of the Democratic national committee and it's commonly conceded to be an ad- mirable fit. * # ® This From a Marine! Col. William C. Harllee of Dillon, 5S. C., has announced as an anti-New Deal candidate against Senator Jim- my Byrnes. The most remarkable he was 35 years in the marine corps, became a high officer, served in many imperialistic occupations of foreign soil and now has these things to say in his campaign literature: American occupation and over- throw of a Filipino government after the Spanish-American War was un- justified and the killing of Filipino patriots was shameful. The 1906 intervention in Cuba, he Proclaims, was brought about by New York sugar barons and-the “insur- rectos were their insurrectos,” aim- ing to obtain a government suitable for the barons’ purpose. : The 1914 landing at Vera Cruz, which Harllee saw: “The Mexican forces had left the city to avoid hav- ing it subjected to a shooting ‘bee, but bluejackets, not accustomed to such conditions and not trained in thing about Harllee is the fact that | ‘an all-embracing federalism, the new dealers have consistently favored the sharp concentration of authority at Washington. But Jefferson’s attitude toward borrowing and the public debt provides a contrast which is little less marked. Insofar as the new deal has attempted to spend its way to re- covery, and has plunged the nation heavily in debt in the process, it has run violent counter to one of the most fundamental of all the Jeffer- sonian tenets. For Thomas Jefferson felt very deeply that prodigality with the public funds had no place in sone government. At one time he said: “To preserve our independence, we must not let our rulers load us with perpetual debt. We must make our election between economy and liberty, profusion and servitude.” Again Jefferson referred to “the principle of spending money to be paid by prosperity under the name of funding” as “swindling futurity on a large scale” and declared that public debt was “the greatest of dangers to be. feared.” On one occasion he wrote: “It is a wise rule, and should be fundamental in a government dis- posed to cherish its credit, and the limits of ite faculties, ‘never to bor- row a dollar without laying a tax in the same instant for paying the in- terest annually and the principal within a given term’; and to consider the tax as pledged to the creditors on the public faith.” What Jefferson would have thought of an administration which ran the use of arms ashore, are hard to re- strain and Vera Cruz got plenty of shooting. It was an inglorious affair.” x ek Z Some Plain Speaking During the war and after, Harllee says, marines occupied the Dominican Republic so agencies of the National City Bank, “cleaning up dividends of more than 1000 per cent a year” on sugar could control the government. “I found the only ‘bandits’ were those engaged by the bank to depredate on all properties except its own.” No American or foreigner was ever molested in Haiti, but marines set up ® puppet government and for eight years “no more drastic military gov- ernment was ever fastened on a peo- ple,” he concludes. Now we can’t remonstrate effect- ively with Japan in China or Mus- solini in Africa.

Pete himself almost doubted that he had said them—‘You could marry me.’ He didn’t want a wife. He wasn't in love with Linda Bourne. He hadn’t given any romantic thought to her. Whatever Linda’s reactions were, she did not betray them. She knew why he had asked her to marry him, and she knew, too, how to reply. “That was exactly the right thing to say t lady in distress,” she told him, “but I am not to be out- done in gallantry. I thank you for your kind invitation and regret that I cannot accept.” Then she laughed gaily. So she had thought it was only @ gallant speech! Pete stified the smallest sigh of relief. It was easier after that for Linda to talk to him. She had estab lished a lighter note and the tense strain of the hour they had spent Aispelled itself. She told him that she was planning to sell the house, but until it was sold she would stay on there with the housekeeper who, in time, would retire and live with a married daughter. “In the meantime,” she said, “I've been thinking of things I could do. It can’t be so terribly hard to be a secretary. I've had lots of experience at the League and I thought perhaps I could get through. a quick course at a busi- ness college.” ove ETE had heard a good many stories from girls who had lost and were unable to find secretarial jobs, but he hadn’t the heart to dis- courage her when he had nothing else to offer, “Or perhaps,” Linda chattered on, “I might try to get a job coach- ing dramatic courses. You know— Little Theatre things.” Pete was glad the subject had changed to something about which he could talk. “You're interested in the theater, aren’t you?” “Crazy about it,” she told him, and added hastily, “Not acting, you She unlocked the big desk and drew a sheaf of papers from it. She didn’t want to think of it. It was too closely associated with the dreadful week before. “Did yau ever do anything else like that?” Pete asked her. She didn't answer him immedi- ately. She crossed the room, un- locked the desk, and drew a sheaf of papers from it. Then she shyly resumed her seat beside him. Pete had never seen a gir] who was shy, and it suddenly occurred to him that he had never enjoyed himself before as much as this evening. “Yes, I have,” she answered his question finally. “I've written a movie scenario, but I’m not going to ask you to read it. I know it isn’t any good,”—and, as he Teached for it, “No, please.” “Then, tell me about it,” he urged. “You'll think it’s all pretty silly, but it has been fun and it’s kept me from thinking . ». thinking things I didn’t want to. One day at the hair-dresser’s I picked up a movie magazine. Hairdressers have the very latest movie maga- aines,” she assured him gravely +| She dropped the note in the box and then went home to plan for Sunday. She must not be too sombre; she would wear a smart little black velvet frock and she would fill the house with flowers. She knew that her mourning would have a deep influence on Dix, and the enchantment of their compan ionship had been paced by galety. There were four more days until Sunday. Every time the telephone rang, Linda's heart jumped to her throat as she took the receiver from» the hook. She sorted the mail with trembling fingers and tried to put time from her mind. Dix was busy. He might not have received her note. He might be out of town. He might be fll. He wouldn’t write. He would telephone. He couldn't di her note. He wouldn't want to, she kept assuring herself with faltering belief. eee HE dared not leave the house for fear of missing his call. The housekeeper was too old to be re- lied upon; that was the excuse she gave to herself. Deep in her heart, she knew her real reason was that if Dix called and said he couldn't come on Sunday, she hoped she could make him suggest another time. On Saturday Wilda Jennings came to see her. Wilda had been Linda's right hand in those days that seemed so long ago. “Honey,” Wilda assured her, “none of us are having a good time, thinking about you having to stay here and ali this terrible trouble.
