Eighteen Years After Guns roar in Madrid and lifeless eyes stare at the smoke- filled Spanish sky as Armistice Day dawns again on an America at peace with all the world. American boys went overseas to fight in a war that the world might be “Safe for Democrac Yet, 18 years later, we find democracy with her back to the wall and two new forces, Communism and Fascism, fighting for mastery on much of the globe. In Spain, father is arrayed against son and brother against brother in a carnage as frightful and even more cruel than that which tinted the popies in Flanders field. But America is at peace. As our young lads and lassies march behind their fathers ind mothers in the annual Armistice Day parade, let us remem- yer that they, too, will be cannon fodder unless the people of this nation will it otherwise. Let us banish hate of other peoples from our hearts, con- tent in our own way of life and secure in our possessions. We dave no desire for war even though we know that Europe again 's tottering on the brink of ruin and that, once strife is renewed, all manner of appeals will be directed toward us to bring us in. Unless all signs fail, that clash is close at hand. It cannot be delayed much longer. We learned much from the last war and the lessons were sv cruel that they should long be remembered. We learned that war offers a fool’s paradise for profit but that no one gains in the end. We found that men may dic for principles and win apparent victory but that the shock of victory may unseat ‘hose principles. Above all, we should have learned not to be deceived by propaganda, not to be drawn into the vortex which unseats rea- son and leads to destruction. We have ample reminders of the terrors of war. The vet- erans who marched in the parade are living evidences of war’s futility. They obtained from it an unhappy experience at best, shortened life and the necessity for living in constant pain at the worst. Each man who served in the World war is proud for having given that service but he wants no necessity for his sons to duplicate it. He knows that war is cruel, savage, SENSELESS AND USELESS. IT SETTLES NOTHING. IT MERELY PLANTS THE SEEDS FOR MORE WARS. These are things of which we think as we view the Armis- tice Day parade. We think of dead and of our war-torn wounded with gentle and grateful memory, of course. We could not possibly forget them. But for many of the latter we can do little except help ease their pain. But even above these we think of the happy, bright-faced boys and girls who can grow up to be either fine American citi- zens or just cannon fodder, to die in the muck and amid the roar of a battle field. America may have to choose sooner than we think, for events move swiftly in this modern world. It should be con- stantly ready to choose, always on the alert that the weeds of war shall not suddenly destroy our garden of peace. Visiting the Schools This week has been designated as American “ducation Week and the various Parent-Teacher associations are urging | citizens to visit the schools and see how they operate. " It would be a good thing if all could do so but it is improb- able that many will take advantage of the invitation. That makes it all the more advisable for those who do go to tell their friends what they see there and to spread the gospel of how the home and the azhool can cooperate to make better Amer- ican citizens. As a rule mothers do most of the visiting. Which may be just as well. When dad performs this rite of civic duty he is likely to become so filied with self-conscious virtue his friends find him a bit stuffy. Parents of both sexes are equally welcome, however, and are likely to find the experience an eye-opener. It is a far cry from the school of 20 years ago to the modern temple of learn- ing and too few of us know about it only through the unhappy medium of tax bills. Good for the Farmer, Buying power for farm products is represented in the employment and payroll figures just made public by the steel industry. é ji These show that both the volume of employment and the total paid in wages was the largest in history, even before the recent 10-per-cent wage raise was ordered. There are now 522,400 persons at work for the steel mills of whom 97,500 were added during the last year. Of the latter, 91 per cent were wage earners, seven per cent were clerks and two per cent were administrative and sales employes. In 1929 the total number employed was 419,500. In the year ending last September wages paid had raised by 48 per cent and salary payrolls by 23 per cent. All of which is important to the farmer for it means that his wheat, meat, milk and other products are certain of a ready sale to these and other persons in reviving industry. THE Behind he SCENES — { Washington beccrccccccccce. Staggering Sum Spent on Campaign; How Many Millions No One Can Tell Accurately. By RODNEY DUTCHER (Tribune Washington Correspondent) Washington, Noy. 11.—No one ever knows how much money has been spent during a presidential campaign. Experts have estimated a normal out- lay of $20,000,000 to $25,000,000, and all the evidence indicates that the campaign of 1936 was abnormal enough to s¢t an all-time record. The last pre-election statements of the Republican and Democratic na- tional and congressional committees showed the G. O. P_ had spent about $7,500,000 and the Democrats about $3,500,000. Those sums included neither the big last-minute effort to get out the vote nor the final payment of bills Even if they had, the official total wouldn’t have been the half of it. Lots of money gets slipped surrepti- tiously in a campaign, in such a way that it can't be traced. How much, for instance, did the great payroll-envelope campaign—in which employers tried to arouse work- ers against the New Deal Social Se- curity Act—really cost? Employers paid most of the bili and were not re- quired to report expenses. No one could guess the total of per- sonal expenditures designed to help elect candidates. Private campaigns against certain phases of the New Deal, costing tens of thousands of dol- lars, needn't be reported as campaign expenditures, * * * No one knows the total of expendi- tures by state, county, and city com- miltees. County expenditures are of- pten larger than state commitee ex- penses, because they usually cover the} big cost of getting out the vote. The Democratic national committee originally estimated its budget at $2,- 000,000, raised that to $3,000,000 and was going much stronger than that at the finish. The Republican committee's budget Was $8,636,000 and almost certainly no less than that was spet. The American Liberty League, the National Union for Social Justice, and the United Mine Workers each spent more than $500,000 this year. Labor's Non-Partisan League, with its state organizations, spent an estimated million dollars. The Good Neighbor League and the Progressive National Committee, both working for Roosevelt, each spent. more than $100,000. So did the Jef- fersonian Democrats. * * Personal expenditures of congrcs- sional and senatorial candidates have been estimated as high as $2,000,000 and money spent for local and state tickets has been placed between five and ten millions, About $2,000,000 appears to have been spent by political parties for radio—Republicans and other anti- New Dealers buying at least 50 per cent more than the Democrats. Other large sums were spent for newspaper advertising, billboards, sound trucks, campaign literature, buttons, office space, thousands of paid workers, and travel expenses. Organized labor raised or contrib- uted more than a million dollars in the campaign. But even more val- uable was the assistance it gave in or- ganizing the Roosevelt vote. * * x Conspicuous Republican contribu- | tors who gave $5,000 or more included William Randolph Hearst—first re- ported down for $30,000 and later for $15,000 more—John D. Rockefeller, Ogden Mills, Paul Mellon, J. P. Mor- gan, George Whitney of Morgon & Co., Irenee duPont and Lammot du- Pont, George F. Baker, Alfred P. Sloan, Ernest T. Weir, Robert and Daniel Guggenheim, H. 8. Firestone, Winthrop A. Aldrich of Chase Na- tional Bank, Mrs. J. Ogden Armour, Thomas E. Wilson, William K. and Harold Vanderbilt. Democratic contributors of large sums included W. L. Clayton, cot- ton magnate; Floyd Odlum of the huge Atlas Corporation, Ambassador Robert W. Bingham, Fred Pabst of| Milwaukee, August Busch of St. Louis, Secretary of the Treasury Henry Mor- genthau, 8. Clay Williams, tobacco magnate; RFC Chairman Jesse Jones, W. A. Harriman, Curtis Bok, Joseph P. Kennedy, a loan of $37,000; Am- bassador William C.

The ele tion over, that task now looms larger than ever. In the organized effort and energy that must be applied to the solution of this problem in the future the United States employment serv- ice will continue to play an important part. Quite obviously neither the em- ployment service nor the private em- ployer can make jobs where the op- portunity itself does not exist. But the employment service, supplement- ing the large employment services of industry, can bring the right worker and the right job together more effi- ciently than has been the case in the previous history of the country. The National Employment ice cc-ordinates the work of local, state and federal governments in the com- mon task of giving assistance to the With Other EIT jemployment self-help of the worker. Already piere|| are 36 state employment services in this federal-state system which, un- cer the Wagner-Peyser act, are per- manent institutions. The ultimate aim of the program is to provide in each state similar organizations and in those states where this has not yet been accomplished the National Re: service is temporaril; taking their place. In the past three years the empl ment service has placed 18 000 2004 workers, out of which number 3,500,000 have been in private industry and the remainder on governmental work pro- jects. In the fiscal year which closed with the end of June the service re- ceived 6,124,827 applications for em- ployment and placed 5,755,964 per- sons. Out of this number 1,147,287 went into private industry and 4,- 608,677 were placed on government ork projects. In July of this year the service placed 116,059 unemployed in private indus Thus the em- ployment service is not a relief agency nor an agency to create jobs for vie ORS Reprinted to show what they say. We may or may not agree with them. who do not have them. According to W. F. Persons, director of the service, “it helps by seeking out legal work opportunities and by selecting and sending qualified workers to fill them. not on the basis of the need of the unemployed applicant, but solely on the basis of his fitness to do the work and the reference of these workers to employers is made without regard to creed, color or political affiliation.” If for no other reasons than the purely selfish one of reducing the cost of unemployment relief every state has a vital interest in bringing jobs and the jobless together. Because un- employment relief is become a goyern- ment responsibility the state serves not only labor and industry but also itself when it helps the worker to find gainful employment and the employer to find the kind of worker he wants. In the campaign to end unemploy- ment, state employment services are a necessary factor of vast importance to the workers, to industry and to the state, Poo rrrrnnnnnrnnn.

While he earned 4# living by playing for dances. he composed short musical selections, and later attempted operas and other difficult pieces. He became organist in a church at Prague and married. And then began his more intensive work on new operas, and production of his “Slavonic Dances,” ‘which brought him considerable praise. He died in 1904 at the age of 63.

This ¢equest was based on a recent tal about “colic” in infants. ‘Vantage out. Probably thousands who read this are under treatment for an ailmen which does not exist. In every community there is an irrigation plant colon filling station where credulous victims of intercostal neuralgia ai “treated” for “colitis” which does not exist except inthe mechanical irritatiot set up by the vicious “treatment.” Secretion of excessive mucus is the ini evitable result of such unnatural “treatment,” and the vic duly im pressed by the excess of mucus, sticks with the “treatment” indefintely- a kind of vicious circle which is fine for the proprietor of the station. Addressing an academy of medicine a professor of surgery in a medic: School said that in patients referred to him for operation, with the diay nosis of chronic appendicitis, he finds the pain and tenderness in the lowef right quadrant are due to neuralgia in 98 per cent of cases, and in tl other 2 per cent duodenal ulcer, stone in kidney or similar lesion. In othe words the concept of “chronic appendicitis” is unsubstantiated in practice. Even in cases of acute type sent to this same distinguished surgeon fo hurry up operation he finds in over half of them that the trouble is neural giv, and he does not operate.
