ALASKA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TO BE LARGER THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER PUBLICATION. REAL NEWSPAPER MAKING. A short time ago, upon the occasion of the resignation of Assistant Secretary of State Moley, Heywood Broun, noted columnist once of the New York World and now conductor of the “It Seems to Me" column in the World-Telegram, took up the cudgels on behalf of his friend, Mr. Moley, and belabored Secretary of State Hull somewhat merci- lessly. The World-Telegram permitted Mr. Broun to have his say, and a day or so later, under the heading, “MR. BROUN, MEET MR. HULL" com- mented as follows: Heywood Broun in his column on the resignation of Assistant Secretary of State Moley says: “Now certainly no national executive of any caliber would willingly choose Cordell Hull for any Cabinet post. . . . I have never | regarded Raymond Moley as an authentic whirlwind, but he is certainly a man of { far more ability than Cordell Hull. After all, who isn't?” Our disagreement with Mr. Broun's opin- jons are frequent and pass without com- ment. We are replying to the columnist in this instance not because of his opinion, but because we think he is wrong in his facts. The standards which we and Mr. Broun would fix for a Cabinet officer, ana particularly for a Secretary of State, prob- ably are similar. Secretary Hull, with all his faults, is superior in intelligence and integrity to most of the Secretaries of State since Mr. Broun can remember. Indeed, Mr. Hull has two virtues which probably would commend him especially to Mr. Broun if the latter were familiar with his record. Mr. Hull is not on terms of intimacy with the international bankers and business interests which have hitherto usually dominated American foreign policy. Though not a radical, Mr. Hull has not taken orders from thpse special interests as most of his recent predecessors have done. Secretary Hull has another virtue which is mot common in the Roosevelt or any other Cabinet. He is not a yes-man. He had the courage, the conviction and the ability to fight—virtually alone among Demo- crtic politicians—for tariff reduction when Raskob and his party worshipped the Hoov- erian gods of protectionist prosperity. That is not the way a political hack operates. At the London Conference Secretary Hull had sufficient courage to attack economic nationalism even to the point of holding apart from the new Roosevelt-Moley policy. He continues to oppose economic national- ism. And the fact that Mr. Moley, rather than Mr. Hull, has resigned is fairly strong evidence that the President is turning to- ward the Hull foreign policies. Now, of course, Mr. Broun is free to agree or disagree with the Hull policies. But he is not free, if we understand the Broun code of sportsmanship, to hit below the belt. When Mr. Broun implies that Secretary Hull is merely a political hack of no ability we believe he is guilty of a foul —doubtless because he is unacquainted with the man and uninformed as to the man's record. This is more than a tribute to Mr. Hull, who is all that the World-Telegram has claimed for him. 1t is a fine example of real journalism, of excellent newspaper making. And it is just what one would ‘thinking paper as the World-Telegram has demon- strated itself to be since it came under the editorial direction of Roy W. Howard. PREPARING FOR DEPOSIT INSURANCE. The récent condemnation of Government insur- ance of bank deposits voiced by the American Bankers' Association in its annual convention has apparently left the Administration undisturbed in its conviction that it is a necessary step, and has not caused it to abandon its movements in that direction. In fact, it has virtually completed setting to July 1, 1936. Afterward it will insure deposits| of banks applying for membership in the Federal Reserve systems or for conversion into national| banks. A temporary plan will be put into effect from January 1, to July 1, 1934, and every Federal| Reserve member bank must become a member before the first of the year. Under the temporary plan deposits up to $2,500 will be insured in fullv‘ It is estimated that this will give complete coverage to over 95 per cent of the bank depositors. | Under the permanent fund, effective July 1, $10,000 to $50000, 75 per cent; over $50,000, 50 per| cent. Funds to provide for this insurance, in addi- tion to the Government’s capital investment, will be provided by assessment on member banks, of one half of one per cent of deposits eligible for insurance in case of the temporary fund and pur- chase of preferred stock in the insurance cor- poration in case of the permanent fund. More than 500,000 farmers lost their status as landowners during the past three years, and lots of others are just getting over wishing that they, too, had done the same thing. Today there is more sentiment and brotherly feeling manifested in the world than for many generations. Common difficulties bring, in the end, a common appreciation for one’s fellows. Advertising Creates Desire. (Bremerton News Searchlight.) One of the traits which endeared the late Calvin Coolidge to the hearts of the American people was his homely logic. He had a simple way of stating every-day fact which many of us are likely to overlook in the turmoil and complexities of modern life. Coolidge once said: When I was a boy in the hills of Ver- mont twelve miles from the railroad, the only merchandise I saw was in the country store. But my horizon was widened by cer- tain publications containing pictures and descriptions of things that appealed to youth. I read and bought. It is essential in the first instance to make good merchandise. But that is not enough. It is just as essen- i tial to create a desire for it. That is adver- tising. The person or association of persons who can produce that combination of ex- cellence and demand is performing a real public service. They enlarge the mental horizon and provide new forms of utility and beauty. The material benefits pass over into spiritual benefits. Culture and charity are the by-products. The only way for the people to become acquainted with what they want is through judicious advertising. Goods not worth advertising are not worth selling. Americans are a progressive, ambitious people. We are proud of the fact that every wage earner is striving to advance in the scale of living and it is not to be regretted that he measures his progress by the material things which he possesses. For, as Coolidge has said: “The material benefits pass over into spiritual benefits. Culture and charity are the by-products.” Very few of us have the means to satisfy all our wants. Therefore it becomes doubly helpful to have constantly before us the great American display of advertised. goods, from which we may pick and choose what we most wish to buy—to make our own selection from among the fruits of industry; the selection which best fits our individual tastes and pocketbooks. We enjoy this convenient method of shopping because modern advertising makes it so easy and so pleasant. We all desire to partake even more of the rich experiences offered by the civilization of this age. Many of those experiences come through the buying of products displayed in the market places of America. We learn about them through the advertising messages of the people who produce and sell the articles which add to our enjoyment of life. We read these advertising messages because they contain important news. They keep us informed on what is new in culture and comfort. They notify us of improvements in older products. The show window of American industry is always before us, pleasing to eye and ear. Promotion for Welles. (Cincinnati Enquirer.) For a good many years it has been an un- fortunate tradition of our State Department that an ambassadorship is the utmost to which a diplo- mat can aspire, while a responsible post in the Department is only a stepping-stone to a foreign assignment. One after another, our ablest Assistant Secretaries of State have been “promoted” to Buda- pest and Tokyo, Peiping and Vienna. Sometimes that “promotion” has been a polite but effective method of crowding out charming but useless gentlemen who cluttered up the wheels of foreign policy at Washington. But in the main, our ablest diplomats have been unwilling to leave an ambassadorship for the Department, and have taken their first chance to leave the Department for a major assignment abroad. This is understandable. As an Ambassador, the diplomat has a delightful life, he is his own boss, and he enjoys extensive travel as well as long vacations. It is a more colorful task than to head up one phase of the State Department's work under a superior and subject to the nerve- shattering fire of sharpshooters in Congress and in the press. But the fact remains that an Assistant Secretary of State has greater responsi- bility and greater opportunity than the average Ambassador abroad. The short tenure of our higher officials in the State Department has been the cause of much inefficiency in the conduct of our foreign policy. In view of these circumstances, the impending return of Sumner Welles to the State Department is gratifying indeed. Mr. Welles, a career diplomat, has done a splendid job in Cuba. But he can be more useful in his former place as Assistant Sec- [ e o the retary of State in charge of Latin-American af- nation’s bank deposits, beginning January 1, through the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Government officials say that under the law nothing can be done to block it, as Congress does not meet until after the plan becomes effective. The Administration believes that with danger of depositor demands minimized by deposit insurance, banks would increase loans to business, thus aiding in putting across the recovery program. Headquarters of the Insurance Corporation will be established in the Treasury, with branches n the principle cities. It was estimated that about 1,000 employees would be needed at the start, when . examination of some 8000 bankg to participate in the plan must be accomplished. This examina- tion will be independent of the examiners of the “Treasury and of the Federal Reserve Board, al- ‘though all of these agencies will cooperate. fairs. He upsets precedent in regarding that post as a promotion from an ambassadorship. It is to be hoped that his example will be followed in future. New York State rules that brewers must specify ithe exact strength of their legal beer, because there’s no sense in allowing the stuff to become too non- intoxicating.—(Boston Globe.) Canadians are reported flocking in large numbers over the U. 8. A. to spend their vacations. If they want to get likker in Canada they have to buy a permit.—(Chicago Tribune.) Those who look forward with gloomy foreboding to the predicted hot summer of 1934 should be cheered by the assurance that it won't also be dry — (Lexington, Ky., Herald.) The Federal Dry Bureau is now reorganized and With $150,000,000 capital, the corporation will deposits of all Federal Reserve member banks, gpproved non-member banks, from January 1, presumably will settle down to watch the election returns.—(Indianapolis News.) next, deposits up to $10,000 will be insured in full;!s By ALAN GOULD | The national tennis champion- ship not only revealed the neces- y of rebuilding the United States Davis Cup forces for 1934, with the future of Vines uncertain and Allison apparently on the down- grade, but demonstrated that Aus- tralia is fast returning to the stage where the Anzacs can chal- lenge on even terms with any tennis-playing country. Australia has developed at least two phenomenal youngsters in Ad- rian Quist, age 20, and Vivian McGrath, now only 17 and forti- fied with a two-handed backhand that may prove a revolutionary stroke. Either may be ripe to stand with Jack Crawford in the| singles next season, with one or the other paired in the doubles with Don Durnbull, another stur- dy product of the Antipodes. Crawford’s class is already well ablished and there seems no reason why he should not stay around long enough to play a dominating part in recapturing the Davis Cup. est. TWO SELF-SATISFIED plicate its over-confidence of 1933, merely because of a feeling that it has been “jinxed” at Paris and that all will be much better on the turf of Wimbledon next year. The truth is that Australia right now looks to be better fortified; with star tennis players, of Davis Cup calibre, than the U. S. A. Our lads will be lucky to get be- yond the interzone finals next month, in all probability, even if, Vines remains an amateur and| Frank Shields continues his come- back. The unfortunate fact is that too many of our tennis leaders have the idea, first, that we have the best players in the world, and,! second, that we have a decided advantage on grass over most any rivals. i Our successes at Wimbledon are | pointed to and even the chairman ! of the Davis Cup committee sug- gests that the circmstances will be happler from the American view- | point, with the shift of the cup | defense from France to England. Happier for whom? Crawford | topped the Wimbledon singles list this year and the French captur- ed the men’s doubles there. Per- ry and Austin, who performed so brilliantly together on the en-tout- cas courts of Roland Garros, cer- tainly cannot be any worse at home. Probably they will be very, tough, indeed, for all challengers. | PROS LOSING OUT | The professional tennis picture for 1934 is still far from clear, owing to the uncertainties as to just what, if anything, is to be gained by any amateur star who turns pro and just who, if any- one among the brighter lights, is going to make the big leap this fall or winter. ! There has been a lot of super- fluous ballyhoo for the fading Frenchman, Henri Cochet, who would not even think of turning pro were it not for the fact he is through with Davis Cup com- | petition. It is a trifle late to “puild up” a fresh rivalry between those old stagers, Cochet and Big Bill Tilden. They need new blood, someone like Vines, to stimulate the professional prospects, but the tall Californian, no longer nation- al champion, probably has now been advised to look before he leaps. t Y Cheaper BUT BETTER RICE & AHLERS CO.
