Lefore 8 «clock. i a Democracy and Government It has long become unsafe for anyone to as much as sug- gest that the government of the United States is not the best in the world. We all remember how in war times men were locked up for intimating such a thing. Nowadays no one can be more than 26.5 American, according to the popular stand: ards, and cling to the belief that the American government is something less than it claims to be. Wise men agreed long ago that the less government’ the better—the fewer laws, and the less confided power. Yet it seems that the whole tendency of the times in this country is in the other direction. And now we have Dr. Charles A. Beard, eminent historian, suggesting to a thering, composed of many of the leading teachers of political science in the country, that the whole democratic scheme of government is a failure. It is a question, of course, whether our own is a democratic government. “Can,” Dr. Beard asks, * nation, plan a te, or plan a city rge with reference to economy, convenience and aesthetic: ‘an a government conceive and carry out any large collective progrem other than war? A thousand illustrations seem to point to a negative answer.” It is now part and parcel of popular American thought that the state can do not wrong; that whoever criticizes it “undermining the foundations of the republic.” In dealing with the state, we ought to remember, that its instituti are not superior to the ven; that every one of them was once the act of a single man; that every law and usage was man’s expedient to meet a particular situation; that they re all imitable, all alterable, that we may make as good; that we may make better overnment plan a ns (The Herd Is Vanishing Yo give one’s children an expensive education, unless one is rich, is a madness and vanity which is certain to be pun- ished in good time. It is all very well for those who can con+ tinue the life of luxury afterwards, but never let them sip the ambrosia, never give them a taste for the b y liquor, if after: wards you mean to break the spell of this subtle intoxication. “Tf each man minds his job, the herd will be well guarded,” says a popular proverb. But at the rate we are going now, soon there will be no herds to guard. The depopulation of our coun- try districts must in some measure be attributed ‘c the fact that farmers in their vanity have taken their children off the Jand and sent them to colleges and convents where for eight years of their lives they have shoyelled away at Homer and Virgil instead of the tough earth around the barnes. Dangerous Drivers Singham, of the New York Personnel Research. Feder Persons of high intelligence are more dangerous as automobile drivers than persons of lower intelligence. Data gathered oyer a period of rs, Shows a greater proportion of accidents among professional men, doctor: awyers and busi+ ness men, than among delivery boys, truckmen, taxicab drivers and laborers. This difference is most marked in collisions with street cars, when the driver has absentminded]) rted out from the curb without giving warning or looking back to see whether the car is bearing down upon him.” The French Object Advices from abroad are to the effect that France hopes to bind the countries within the league of nations to refuse the invitation expected soon from President Coolidge to at tend a world armament limitation inference in Washi because of fear that the security negotiations now going on side the lea may not give her and her small allies the pro tection they demand from Germany. France prepared to deputize the assembly commission to prepare for a conference on disarmament to be held under the league’s auspices when the time is ripe. The British are not enthusiastic over such a proje because they are sympathetic with President Cool- idge’s idea of calling an arms parley. But if a resolution is adopted by the league, England will be bound automatically to discuss disarmament at Geneva. Dr. I ation says: eae { iThe Mites and Pennies Addressing the National Conference of Catholic Charities, Attorney General John G, Sargent said, “The mites, the pen- nies, the nickels, the dimes, the dollars from the poor and the needy for the poorer and the needier are the real sources of the great streams of relief which pour through this great organ ization to give life and hope to the thousands who are almost without them. And if I know and understand the mass of. the people among whom I have lived and worked so far in life this giving, this sacrifice, this manifestation of a desire to do to others as we would that they should do to us, so widespread, so universal in this, beloved country, is the surest sign to be found that our civilization is sound at heart and will-en dure.

The constitution crystallized into basic law a government by the peo- ple and established a republic with @ guarantee of equality before the law. We deem it important, there- fore, to read in its pages not only the privileges but the obligations of citizenship aswell. To many thinking people a period has arisen that ig putting our con- stitution through a severe test. They. contend that human forces are at ‘work undermining American deals, They hold. before us such “agencies of despair’ as lawlessness, radical- ism, political favoritism, class ha- tred, illegal trafficing, jury-fixing, loose application of pardoning power, all of which have become a menace to constitutional foundations. We have fallen on days where there a lax in respect. for law and order, a defiance of the sanctity of person and property. Since all forms of human behavior are more or less contageous {t is important that we consider the conditions and the remedy. In the pena! institutions of the United States there are today 200,000 persons convicted of crime. This does not tell the whole story when we consider those who go unpunished or undetected. Recent figures show the cost of this crime to be about 8% per cent of the nation’s income, a startling sum to expend on a de- structive force. Unfortunately this does not represent the total outla It is but necessary by way of illu: tration to note the cost of burglary insurance and contrast the rate wit some other hazard such as fire. On the other hand, education, our great- est constructive force, costs an amount approximating 114 ‘per cent of our income. This comparative cost is the more significant when we con- sider that we have {n our grade and secondary schools alone 125 times as many American youth as there are inmates of our penal institutions. There is reason to feel that when this conflict clears the vision of the constitution’s founders ‘will be {fit dicated—that this will be proved ‘a fraternal natton. We have “agencies of hope” that lead us to this conclu- sion. They are such institutions’ as the social welfare and service organ- izations, the press and radio, the church, the home, and the schools, Educators are already at the ta They s¢nsed the situation and: for some time in ference groups subject of character development and citizenship training ved thelr attention. It is a program, not of talk but of action. Already many have translated their thinking into courses of study for definite instruc- Uon. Others are following.
