Consolidation of County and City | Governments, rs Sere Ss According to President pemenaite * budget message, the national debt will be nearly 32 billions by 1935. Ten billions must be borrowed by the government be-, tween how and June 80. Hxpenditures at present average about a billion a month. Fortunately for our peace of mind, no one can grasp the sigtiificance of these enor- \ mous amounts. yt 4 \ Ed Howe has announced his. retire- ment from publishing his famed Monthly, “devoted to’ indignation and information,” at the age of 80. This will cause to those who have enjoyed and profited by his pungent sayings and homely philésophy.. Although he left school to become & print- ing office “devil” atthe age of 12; Ed Howe became internationally famous as editor and author. He thinks he has re- tired, but we'll bet he will soon be back in print again. -_ Hollywood recently had a joke on Will Rogers, who in his time has joked about nearly everybody. The genial Will is not:a smoker, but in a new film he was required to puff vigorously ona.pipe; which performatice.made him deatiily sick. The bear oot he xécovered, pan ring for tobacco | ‘ee be ob: tained for his stint. i! e ae \Ferdinanil, grandson of tl tee rmér Kaiser, on his way from Texas to be present.at his grand- father's 75th birthday celebration in Doorn, Holland, did two very humati things. AtSan Antonio he gave up his seat in an airplane to the Trammell family tak- ing their baby to ‘Baltimore for an emer- ~geiicy operation; at New Orleans he con- veniently forgot formal social obligations to go on a round of parties with a pretty blonde airport hostess. Warned by his physicians that :he had only a few weeks to live, W. A. Grant, 82, of Exeter, England, pulled a big farewell _ party for 400 guests, who tiade whoopee until nearly daylight.. Then Grant took a nap. and was up and eating breakfast at 7:45, when he said: “Not.dead yet; feel- ing fine.” : ‘The first important aircraft aceom- plishment of 1984 was the reeent flight of six Navy planes:‘from San Francisco to Honolulu, .a distance of 2,400 land miles, the longest successful mass flight on record. While the speed made by these planes was not extraordinary, the per- formance was on the whole most credit- able. r HITLER AND LINCOELN~» « “If only Hitler were such a man as was Lincoln,” exclaims a speaker, who still clings to the discredited idea .of -inter- nationalism as a basis of permanent world peace. The idea of contrasting these two leaders seems perfectly natural to the average citizen of the United States. is a thoroughly nationalistic sentiment. We think Lincoln was the greater, but millions of Germans think Hitler the greater, 5.

Gexmaps, or Italians, or Russians, or Japanese. Theirs is theirs and ours, is ours, and the differ ence between the ours is ours, afid the dif- ference between the two viewpoints should ever be kept in mind. It may help us to be a bit more tolerant if we but remember that our own is not perfect. Not even our martyred leaders were perfect, except as our historians have |" clothed them with perfection. “History is bunk,” said Henry Ford. Commenting on this statement H. G. Wells, the English historian says: ‘Neither British nor American: school history has evér been bunk-free * * * * Evén when the broad lines of: history seem to be near the facts, it is very > doubtful whether the treatment of any of the great individual figures of history: can. be re- “garded as veracious portraits. At best they are exaggerations. More often they are libels.” Nationalism is the established world order. Let us bend our energies toward making it an informed, unpréjtidiced, righteous nationalism rathe. than strive for that lifeless thing. calletl inter- nationalism. SCRAMBLED SLOGANS Here is a nice parlor game. Write on slips of paper certain advertising slogans. On another set of slips write the names of the various advertisers concerned. Mix each set in two hats or other receptacles and draw one slip from each and compare. Here are some of the results reported by a contemporary: : “Eventually, Why Not Now,?”"—Na- | ¢ tional Funeral Directors’ Association. “Good to thé Las China. “Has the Strength s-of Brookfield Butter.
