" %, BY BRUCE CATTON. el
SWhen Nicholag Murray Butler, president of Colums,
bia University, warned the nation the other day that
our society is going to disintegrate unless we find
some ‘Way of subordinating the profit motive, he
touched on the key problem of thig difficult and
perplexing era.
It is a peculiar situation that we are in, these
days. **
. 'We five in and by a social set-up which depends
for its*functioning cn the motive power supplied by
the lure of profits., By and large, this set-up has
worked. pretty well during the long years of our
history as a nation,
" “We ‘don’t propose to give it up; mnobody yet has
succeeded in convincing us that anything we might
iry in its place would be even half-way satisfactory.
“"Yet we face the. uncomfortable fact that the very
force which keeps this machinery functioning-—the
profit motive—is a force which can wreck the whole
business unless we find some way of regulating it.
. Part of this regulation éan be applied by law. A
good part of it, nowever, must come from a changed
mental attitude on the part of all of ug. We need
to realize that we do the job we have to do, not
only because we get paid for it, but also because
we are rendering a service to our fellow citizens.
- That's a notion to which we have given a great
deal of lip service in the past. Unfortunately, we
have stopped there. We quickly lose sight of our
ideal when the weight of dollars in the other pan
of the scales get too heavy.
- And yet thig idea that the service one renders
i# more important than the money he makes is no
Utopian concept: We needn’t despair of making it a
working rule for every'day conduct. There already
are some callings where it is accepted and enforcec
fully.
There is—to take on example—the medical pro
fession. .
A doctor could increase his income, if he cared
ta, very easily, by performing a few anti-social acts..
If there were no way of subordinating the profit
molive, he would perform them regularly—and the
‘medical profession would be in the plight of, say,
tlie basking profession.
Bul’imwrs have learned that this idea of service
to sociaty can be a real, living thing—an ideal which
a 4 man fith a living to make can follow, to the bene
fit of Rimself and those about him.
: }Fhmt““ valid reason why all the rest of us can't
fearn tke same lesson. And theve isn't any othes
wajy of making our present: kind of socigly work
satisfadtorily.
Horet than 5000 American cities and towns are
planning to held “birthday balls’ on January 30 in
wuif President Roosevelt's anniversary. Pro
ceeds from these affairs will be used to ereate :
permanent endowment for the Warm Spring (Ga.)
Mndfi‘lon'ror treatment of victimg of infantile.
paralysis. |
Herejis a cause that deserves widespread publlc‘
supporf. Mr. Roosevelt himself is a living testl-!
mnhl;to the tremendous value of the treatment |
offered at Warm Springs, % |
~ An endowment which would make that treatment.
mlfl’e to sufferers all over the country would be
a bles§ing to the entire nation. Let’s hope that
the drive goes over the top in 100 per cent style.

The !ld argument about the conflicting claims of
marriage and a career in 4 woman's life seems to
have cbme to seme sort pf a climax in the aliena
tion ofta.ttections damage suit filed recently against
a Newj York corporation by an indignant husband.
The husband complains that his wife was a branch
manas# for this corporation, and that he sought
to lnd::e her to quit work and devote all her time to
their hbme. %
But ‘he corporation, he asserts, “exerted an im
proper influence” over her, so that she decided to
keep the job and let her home take a secondary
place. So now he wants $200,000 in damages.
Of all the odd law suits, this one surely'is one of
the oddest. And yet it does serve to touch up that
old marriage-versus-career argument; and it proba
bly w;fi provide lawyers a chance for giving the
argument a thorough airing in the courts.

NO DANGER OF WAR
Notwithstanding the rumors of war in
the European countries, Ambassador Bing
ham takes an entirely different view of
the condition and discounts such talk or
rumors as idle jest.
Of course, the American Ambassador is
in ‘a position to know, but in dealing with
foreigners or fgreigners dealing among
themselves, nothing is surprising nor is
there any confidence to be placed in such
lan element, Of course, the European coun
tries are not in. a- financial condition for
enaging in war, but from reports generally
circulated, indications of brewing wars
have been impreéssed upon the people of
this country. Gy ol
Our people do not desire war or war in
the Euyropean countries, but if war is the
only solution of international affairs which
involve the character and integrity of this
country, then there is no other avenue
open for our people to travel. Our country
and our homes must be protected from in
vasion by foreign countries, even at
the price of war.
INSOLVENCY ON THE DECREASE
~ One of the most encouraging indications
that the period of business depression is
passing is shown from a report issued by
Bradstreet and Dunn last week. The re
port shows that in 1933 there were only
20.307 failures in this country as com
pared with 31,822 in 1932 and in 1931 the
number was 28,285. The number for 1933
was less than any year during the last
decade, 1923, the number of insolvences
was 18,726. :
The market improvement for 1933 over
that of recent years occurred in the large
centers of the country where commercial
and industrial activities are felt the most.
With increased business at these points,
the rest of the country is bound to be im
vroving . with a return of more stable and
sound conditions.
Improvement In conditions is not only
being felt in the centers of trading, but
even in the small towns and cities, busi
ness is improving and growing more sub
etantial. With such a revival in business,
the whole setup of the recovery measures
and the workings ofthe “new deal’”’ are
having the effect of restoring confidence
and the workings of the “new deal” are
stantial condition that cannot be disturbed
bv inflation or discredit on the part of
those who can see only the dark side of
everything.
Yes, the peonle of this nation have been
brave; thev have fought an uphill fight
for the past five vears, and with all the
discouraging reactions in commerce and
industry, they have not given up, but have
kent going, with a determination to win,
and now the goal of success is dawning
on the horizon of passing business adver
sities.
FREEDOM OF THE PRESS
Under the provisions of a bill introduced
in Congress by Representative Mussel
white, of Michigan, newspapers will be
permitted to publish the results of draw
ings and lotteries without violating postal
regulations and laws. For some years, the
postal regulations have prohibited news
papers from publishing announcements or
results of raffles, drawings and lotteries,
just why such strict regulations were ever
adopted is not known, but such has been
the requirements and under the postal
laws, newspapers have been deprived of
such rights. However, with the enactment
of the Musselwhite bill into a law, news
papers will enjoy equal privileges along
with other agencies of publicity and ad
vertising agencies.
In commenting on his bill, Congressman
Musselwhite, said :
“T can see no harm in printing the re
sults of lotteries conducted by churches,
civic or fraternal organizations, especially
in small communities where, for instance,
the Rotary club, the Elks or a church or
ganization would raffle an automobile.”
Merchants offering inducement to se
cure, business in. the way offering prizes
to be determined by giving away tickets
bearing numbers from which drawings are
made, have been outlawed by the postal
authorities, all of which has been an in
justice to the merchant and to the news
papers. It is believed that the proposed
bill will receive the favorable considera
tion of Congress and that when it comes
up on its passage, there will be few, if any,
votes cast against the measures.
HONORING PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT
A nation wide cooperative plan for hold
ing “birthday balls” on January 30, in
honor of President Roosevelt’s anniversary,
has met with much success, and up to
date there are over 5,000 towns and cities
in this country where such celebrations
will be held.
The purpose of the “birthday balls” is
to create an endowment for the Warm
Springs .Foundation for the treatment of
sufferers of infantile paralysis. It is be
lieved that large sums will be raised from
the proposed balls, enough, possibly, to af
ford treatment for hundreds who are af
flicted with this dreaded disease.
The people of Athens should not lag in
this all important movement, but organi
zations should be perfected and a Roose
velt “birthday ball” should be given on
that date, at Woodruff hall, open
to all citizens who feel an interest in pro
viding means for the treatment of the vie
tims of one of the most serious maladies
known to medical science.
There is ample time for organization
and for the preparation of a program that
would place this community in the lime
light of supporting a cause that is not only
deserving, but aiding in providing funds to
carry on a work which has proved one of
the greatest boons to mankind. j

A Little of Everything,
Not Muc_hif_ Anything
Pat Griffin, one of the most
virile writers on the Georgia
press has turned in “30" and.
passed on to the “Q'n‘at ' Be
_ yond” to meet many of the “old °
timers,” who had gone before
him. : |
We knew and loved Pat Griffin
for his many beautfiul traits of
character. As a friend, he was
true and loyal; as a man he live
up. to every requiremeht that goes
to make an ideal citizen. He wad|
an editor of convictions and on thé|
principles in which he believed he
never swerved, but fought for what'
he believed to be right. Single
handed and alone, he stood in the,
open in the advocacies of men and|
issues regardless of disagre'ementil
on the part of the public or his
friends. However, he gave every-'
one the right of their opinjons and
beliefs and never held animosity
for anyone who did not agree with¢
him. & s
For nearly a half century, he
engaged in the newspaper busi
ness and for over a quarter of
a century he edited the Bain
bridge Post-Searchlight, .
As a legislator, he was a leader
in the lower house of t e legisla
ture, gerving in that body two de
cades., He never straddled a ques
tion, but he could always be found
advocating one side or:the other o!“
all bills or questions that arose on
the floor of the house .He di¢
not cut corners or camouflage his
position, but every member of the
house knew, at all times, where to
find Pat Griffin.. His services as
an editor and as a legislator wiul
be missed by the people of his
community and by the people of
the state of Georgia. Honest in
his dealings with mankind, sincere
and true to every trust imposed in
him. Pat Griffin left a record to
which his friends,K and family can
point to with pride. §
Q. What should a hostess
say in greeting a guest arriv
ing at a reception?
A. Any casual inquiry like *“Was
my husband over to Gus's when
vou left?” will do. ’
Q. Is it proper when shaking
hands to hold the hands high?
A. Not unless. it is done teo
‘guard the chin in ecase the other
guy should take a swing at it.
Q. Should a man ever tuck his
napkin in the top of his vest?
~ A. Never. It should always be
tucked in the collar, then he won't.
spill gravy on his tie, shirt or vest.

“Little Women.” '
The dramatization of “Little Wo
men” has revived a celebrated
classic that has long been left only!
to the reader of books and novels,.
but now it is presented on the
screen where every one can see
“Little Women"” and hear the spok
en words of every line which has
been the ideal of American girl
hood for generations. Manager
Cigley is to be . congratulated on
securing “Little ‘'Women” for three
days and evenings. Every perfor
pnance, no doubt, will draw capas
city houses -at this most popular
playhouse—the Falacé theater. ,
Just a third of the first
month of the new year has
passed, but during those ten
days, the merchants have en-
joyed a record-breaknig busi
ness.
" In fact sales have passed previ
ous amountg for the same period of
former years, which is a most en
‘couraging indication for increased
busniess throughout the month ang
the year. With many of the unem
ployed being given work, the num
ber of dependents are being re
duced on the roll of relief which
‘means that the indigent list will
soon be absorbed. The many gov
ernment projects already approved
‘should supply employment for
‘geveral hundred for the next two to
‘three months which by that time,
fit is expected that new projects
will' be approved and the employ
ment kept up through the spring
and summer months, all of which
will prove a blessing to the com
' munity.
