THAN THAT OF ANY OTH GOAT IS FATHER THE FATHERS' DAY € been rers' Day. A For trying to get all worked up about a great many the young- sters grew older we delved into it a per, hop- ing we might be able to figure this so-called Fathers' Day to do as he darned well pleased instead of red calf where father sitting out an angle would be for 1e loud neckii around like a ccepting and good wishes of the mily. We've even tried to fron the thing out along the lines suggested by Mrs. John Bruce Dodd of Spokane, Wash., who gets credit for the original Fathe Day idea, as “an occasion for quiet tribute in churches and in homes But all to no avail. We suggested, even the family fo go off to church pay their “quiet tribute,” they agreed to do it, only they insisted that father go could -a uay of sacred background. urged and and along to sit right up front where the pri tell him what a great guy he is on this particuls So to compromise and Ssu: members pay their “quiet tribute” at ested casion tried the family home and we'd go off fishing while they did it offered to stay fishing until just in time to get back morning. But No, they in on this tribute business. In unless in fact we to work Monday no go. wanted fat other would be no Fathe the old boy was around, which is the reason that we enthused about Fathers' Day. If somebody broad and enlightened land will work out a plan for Fathers’ Day, where father can just back out of the picture for a day. go off nshine work in his garden, go to church if he wants to, or just hit, or whatever else he wa might be brought around to subs idea. The thing has possibilitie approach er to be words, there ' day exactly can't g in this ts to do, we to the m that pert But to have a second day in the year set aside to get Joud 1n.eck addition to Christmas, makes no point at all with u till we are a little botherc. for this cccasion called Fathers’ Day rolls arounc * made again on Sunday, and we no progress at all toward getting away on a fishing urday for the weekend. trip some time Sat- has de parade, The Chamber of Commerce ided to have a float in the Fourth of July ks for the first time in years are considering the same thing If every organization in the city will fall into line we instead of onc of can have a real parade this year, those things Naval air base --ALA or Alaska have gone by the boards | - of Congr for definite 4 at this sessi has been laid stion at the next session A Little Country Tries a Big Plan Record) al Government should ity program to cost r and rise to $10,875,000,000 put fors 800,000,000 spokesman in the yelling to talk © Ee s well- to in- to tionary se with with infinitely le n ours, is preparir that magnitude, reduced ind’s 1,600,000 population Administration in New Zealand, which 1935, wants a national guaran- e since 1.

So far, most: of the dmini others have proved successful in spite of the same ort ol opposition that has met New Deal legislation heie e parallel includes a New Zealand Court of 5 decisiou that clerks in industrial establish- were not industrial workers and were thus to be extempted from a 40-hour work-week law. This decision is the only known runner-up to our own Court’s discovery that, despite world-wide me preme markets, agriculture is a purely local industry The New Dealish Government of New Zealand began with bauking legislation, including Govern- ment control over central banking. It followed that with agriculturai price legislation similar in intent to ours and with public works to fight unemployment, hours legislation, the encouragement of unionization and other measures to snatch the dominion out the doldrums into which successive conservative ministrations had led it. Tocay even unfriendly critics admit that the ad- ministration seems popular with the majority of New Zealanders and that, according to superficial indica- tions at least, the couniry is on a definite upgrade. Whether New Zealand can swing the proposed security plan must be considered problematical by even the most optimistic. The ultimate outlay for this purpose alone is more per capita than the present total cutlay of the United States Government, includ- ing relief and national defense expenditures. ad- Even the first year's social security expense would be almost as much per apita as the whole U. S Federal income at present But the New Zealanders are apparently convinced. as the Swedes, are, that the security problems of modern society cannot be tackled by penny-pinching half measures, Just as Sweden saved money by an- nouncing that every unemployed man would be put to work, so New Zealand may, in the long run, discover that the assets that accrue from social stability and the avoidance of disorder and pauperism will counter balance even the enormous expenses of the proposed ! program. In comparison to our resources we dare not even dream of a program as extensive as New Zealand's The statesmen “down under” may be rash. They may be biting off more than they can che But one must give them credit for the courage to ay “There's enough for all. Let’s see to it that nobody is in w t. That everyone has a job, a doctor and a ecure old age.” The world’s chief handicap now is that men no follow principle but discreetly support any that can hurt them if they don’t.—Akron Bea con-Journal sparently none of those European fellows wants a war, but each of them tries to make the other fel- 1 think that if they don’t let him do as he pleases he’ll start a war.—Indianapolis News.
