We wonder if the American cooking tricks of Mrs, Simpson will not linger on English palates long after the immediate troubles of the former king and Wally are only history. It always will be recalled in merry old Engl that when she waffles the guests be to sing, “now, isn't that a dainty dish to set before the King? is over. although brought the THE LATEST WPA STORY A great many stories are circulated about WPA the well known Works Progress Administration. It probably is an even bet whether Mrs. Simpson, or WPA offers the best subject matter for the ever-ready joke. But in Seattle WPA is easily out ahead, having walked off with the honors supreme yesterday, ac- cording to a news dispatch from that city. In Seattle, 200 delegates, who claimed they rep- resented 6,000 WPA workers in the state of Wash- ington, called on officials and demanded collective bargaining, union wages, right to strike, sick leave and pay for holidays. No statement is forthcoming yet from Mayor Dore, but, until he speaks, we submit that the Seattle WPA story is the best joke offered to date. A BANKER'S VIEWPOINT Since the crash of 1929 there has been an odium around the word banker implying reactionary thinkin But whether founded or unfounded in fact, there is indication of a very definite swing toward a broader | viewpoint on the part of many of the countr financiers. Maybe what happened to the Liberty League has something to do with it, but at any rate here is some evidence. The following statement is from Winthrop W. Aldrich, Chairman of the Boara of the Chase National Bank of New York City, one of the country's largest banking institution: It is a swing away from the intense indi- vidualism of the rights of man toward a lim- ited application of that theory. It seeks to restrain and direct the freedom of the few for the benefit of the many The fact is that in this c! of 1936 no man can 1')m, keep h L y knit world v\(u‘k to h'm- | the judgment the use for and self or restrict the effects of it to narrow limits. He cannot follow a line of action without affecting somebody else. He is no longer liv- ing on a frontier, is no longer able to plan for himself alone, no longer free to do as he pleases, irrespective of outside consequences, We still believe that it is the business of every responsible person to conduct his own affairs according te his own best judgment. | But there has grown up a supplementary fac- tor which operates to direct or perhaps control If we wish to avoid the in centralized authority or every man in respon- dangers inherent prescriptive regulation, sible position must study and restudy his de- | cisions and guide his actions according to his | best estimate of the public good. That, I think, is the outstanding inference to be drawn from the wave of opinion Which swept the | country a short time ago. | Verily, the world moves ahead | Our hat is off to Mr. Jack Anderson of Seldovia who, as a passenger on the Boxer, like a true houts, “do up the ship,” even though the I vessel is not through calling at Sitka Now th ¢ has abdicated, the jolly old Archbishop anterbury is in full ery, although got 4 too at in 200 cases of beer. affect hun- > are but the tiplied many the fact and the enlarged con- whole move the well-estab- lect ! ical wages are sound wlicy. in view of the greater productivity of ¢ of losses from labor dis- iis spurt of wage rates is a tendency rden which will fall on un- S next year But it also represents and the prospect for statements actory ea Both types tterment are ntial.

What is most necessary now is, first, sound precautions ainst excessive or speculative recov- | ery which would entail a set-back, and, second, public policies which will facilitate investment in durable goods, particular plant facilities for further pro- duction | \ Belated Revivalist (New York Times) Going out to Kansas to breathe the purer air of the Grass Roots, Mr. Gifford Pinchot, a progr ve of the 1912 model, was inspired to utter the thoughts that have arisen in him since election day. When he attached himself to Governor Landon and the Re- party he must have forgotten that the |latter the party of “concentrated wealth.” Now he remembers it. If the party is to rise must shake off the Money Devil. Recalling the mor: awakenings that he has conducted, he wants “to see a moral revival in public affairs. Hasn't something of the sort been going on in the last three or four years? It may have escaped Mr. Pinchot’s notice because it wasn't carried on by !the once Great Moral Party. It was his misfortune | to get into the wrong tent. He sat among the children of darkness, not among the children of light. How | publican lare the children of darkness to become the children | Well, there will be hope for the Republican | of light? “if and when it puts itself in tune with the sentiment of the American people.” As | | party dominant -|of 1936 that simple recipe seems to have np other meaning than that the Republican party shall give up busine: altogether too numerous already. Under Mr. Landon’s leadership it was an imitation New Deal party. How much more reorganization, rejuvenation and revival can it stand? Can even Mr. Pinchot be an acceptable missionary of reform? A halo like his should have been among the saints and not the sinners in the campaign.
