, Feed The Mind
BY BRUCE CATTON
The thost interesting stunt that will bg tried' in
Germany this winter will an attemp by'the Nazi
authdrties to persuade everybody that is's nice to
D e faces a terrifically difficult winter. The
economic crisis gets graver. An actual shortage in
certain food supplies is foreseen. The raw mate
rials on which many of Germany’s greatest indus
tries depend cannot be obtained, because Gern}any
has frothing to use for money to buy them. v
So, facing a season of want and hurds'hip., the Hit
ler gbvernment is preparing to meet it in a new
way—by persuading people that tightening your belt
is great fun. ’
The opening guns in this strange propaganda cam
paign have already been fired. The badi ecox.\omi‘c
situation is being blamed on the errors of Hitler's
predecessors in office and on the hostility of ‘cer
tain international cligues” outside of Germany.
After this will come great broadsides extolling the
virtues of endurance and self-sacrifice. A tremen
doud” barrage of oratory, billboards, and newspaper
a‘rtlFlés will glorify the Spartan ability to do with
wout things, Germany will be sold, if the energetic
Nazig can possibly accomplish it, on the idea that
a winter of extreme hardship is only a new challenge |
to patriotism. e
Now this is interesting, not simply because Herr
filtger is going to try to make an asset out of a
great liability Its real significance lies in its reve
lJation of the tremendous power which control of the
q@ifi-_ées of propaganda gives to a man or a party
in this modern world. |
A dictatorship does not, in the last analysis, de- |
pend directly on guns and bayonets. It depends on
the ‘power to mold public opinion. All that the guns
and; bayonets can do is put that power exclusively
in the dictator’s hands.
¢ If other words, a dictatorship does not survive be- |
caupe it makes people put up with its sway; it sur
vives because, quite literally, it can make them like}
it
It does violence to the mind and not to the bhody.
It creates the state of mind that is favorable to it;
;&Tw as it can do that its acts of actual terror
_ -ismpare only incidental.
‘Cbuld there be a greater object lesson in favor of
treQ&Qeech and a free press? As long as the sources
o&'{g rqipaganda are open to all, there can be no dic

"~ The critical nature of the unemployment relief
-pictiré” in the United States is graphically shown
by ‘the news that just about one-fourth of the in
habiants of New York City are now receiving sub
stantial relief of some kind. :
- Public Welfare Commissioner Hodson says that
tfi;? 200,000 New York families are on relief now,
. that the number may rise to half a million” be
‘the end of the year.
The effort to find the money to finance this tre
mendous relief load is jarring New York to its foun
datlons, naturally enough. Such a load cannot be
borpe indefinitely.
’f'_;t"cannot be borne at all without full public re
alizgation of the prime importahce of keeping people
from starvation.
-If the New York case were an isolated instance,
gs would not be so bad. But it is not. All

is pot pleasant to think of what may happen if a
substantial and lasting industrial revival does not

‘ Centuries ago, when the Spaniards were looting

; nfimish and uncertain one.
~ Great galleons took the bullion across the Atlantic,
~ but, in spite of the fact that the whole Spanish
~ mavy was sent out to guard them, English corsairs
gotttheir hands on plenty of it. The. noble art of
wflng was performed in a way to turn the

ECONOMIC CONDITIONS IMPROVED
| If statistics, as prepared by Frances Per
kins, and compiled by the Department of
|Labor are to be credited, this country is far
| better off than it was for the same period
of last year. It is stated by Miss Perkins
{that there has been a slight recession in
{the employment of those unemployed, but
that the average is far above lows of 1933.
However, with the coming of the fall
months and the natural increase from har
vesting crops, much encouragement is to
be taken for marked improvement in all
lines of business and industries. :
Quoting from an interview given by Miss
Perkins to the Associated Press as a Labor
Day announczement, the following para
graphs are worthy of note and speculation :
“Nearly 2,000,000 men and women, who
were jobless a year ago today, have had
work in private industry within the year
and approximately 3,600,000 who were out
of work when the depression was at its
worst have had jobs in factories, mines,
stores and in other private enterprises since
then.
~ “While there have been sume recessions
in recent months, due partly to seasonal
factors, employment is 10 per cent higher
and pay rolis 16 per cent higher than at
this time in 1933. As against the low point
of the depression, reached in March, 1933,
private employment is 34 per cent higher
and pay rolls 63 per cent greater, ‘
| “Pay*roll disbursements to workers in
private industry are approximately $41,-
000,000 a week greater than a year ago
today, and $72,800,000° higher weeklyl
than when the economic situation was
‘most acute. I
~ “In addition to these gains in private in- |
dustry in employment and pay rolls, public |
works construction, projects are now em
ploying directly 625,000 workers who are
being paid over $32,000,000 monthly; |
380,000 civilian conservation workers are |
drawing some $15,000,000 a month; 19,—]
000 reconstruction finance corporation pro- |
ject workers are receiving $1,600,000-in |
monthly pay rolls and 214,000 persons are
engaged on state road work for which they
are being paid more than $11,250,000 per
month.”
However, the wide spread textile strike
which is now going' on in the east and
south is bound to increase the unemployed
situation and may cause thousands of
these strikers to become charges on the re-.
lief organizations of state, municipal and |
federal agencies. If the strikers continue |
in their stand of refusing to return to work, l
it is a mooted question as to whether relief I
organizations will be authorized to help |
them. In the event that food supplies are
refused these people and thev continue
their strike, it is quite evident that thous
ands of families will suffer for the necessi
ties of life.
It is being argued that relief agencies
iare not justifiable in dispensing aid to
strikers. Voluntarily refusing to work
when work is offered, for relief agencies
to interfere by feeding and housing these
people would be in violation of the various
relief acts in principle. if not directly. Just
what the outecome of this comnvlicated
strike will be is by no means a settled mat-‘
ter, at this time. It may require months for
employes and employes to come to an un
derstanding and an agreement over the
adjustment of their grievances. That be
ing true, industrial conditions in America !
are bound to remain in a demoralized state
indefinitely.
| SAVING THE YOUTHS
The many federal relief agencies have
aided the youths of this country in becom
ing self supporting and rebuilding their
morale. Since 1929, there has been more |
than 200,000 of these young men without
employment and without encouragement
to secure work. However, the government
has aided materially in providing employ
ment for these young men. Today there
are over two hundred camps and 350 city
shelters in operation for the accommoda
tion of these young men. The government
has spent approximately $20,000,000 for
this relief purpose. ~
That these young men were forced to
hitch-hike over the country was from no
cause or fault of theirs, but a necessity in‘
order to find something to do to keep body
and soul together. It is consoling, however,
to learn that practically everyone of these
vouths have been provided with some occu
pation affording self supporting agencies
through which they have become inde
pendent of relief measures. i |
i “SO NEAR AND YET SO FAR”
In the state election last week, held in
’South Carolina, the prohibition question
‘was an issue. The people of that state, as
‘a preferential test, were allowed to vote
for and against the sale of alcoholic bever
ages in that state. The “wets” won out by
a decided majority which indicates that
the people of South Carolina “want their
liguor”. However, the balloting was not
official or legal, merely an expression of
the “wets” and “drys”, but a great many
construed the results as authorizing the
sale of liquors in that state. Before the sale
of liquors can be legalized, the legislators
will have to repeal the present prohibition
law. Even after tHat is done, other compli
cations may arise that will delay the sale
of liquors in that state. It is alleged that
there is a provision in the Constitution
which prohibits the sale of any alcoholie
beverage after sundown and also forbids
drinking such beverages upon the prem
ises where they are sold. To repeal this
provision of the South Careolina Constitu
tion, it would have to be referred to the
peonie for a vote which will delay pro
ceedings for at least another year. .

DID IT EVER
OCCURTOYOU - -
A Little of Everything,
Not Much of Anything
One week from today, _one -
of the most hectic c.nipq‘wm
of the present generation will :
close with the casting .of the
ballots of the vaters of Geor
gia for the election of a gov- -
ernor. 7 i !
The campaign has beeén a ’spec
tacular and glamorous affaiy from
start to finish. Never has thers
been a candidate who ‘hds drawn
‘such crowds as has Governor Tal
madge. His speakings have “been
attended by thousands' of ‘the..vo
ters, bubbling over . with: enthusi
asm for their great leader,. His
magnetic manner of speech seems
to have had a hypnotic " influence
and every word spoken: by ‘Gene
Talmadge seems to have’been well
placed ana directed at the spet of
popular approval. Up‘é}l and hon
est, Governor Talmadge has taken
the people into coqttdenee. and
dealt with them as partners in- the
state’s business. He has not-kept
anything] away from them, but
he has placed his ecards ‘on the
table and said: “boys, there r'you
are.” We are working for one
cause and that cause ig to free the
state from debt and pay off. its
obligations to the school teachers,
Confederate soldiers pension - and
balanced the budget &nd.will keep
the state out of debt in the feture.”
e
His opponents, Judge ®Pitt
man and Ed Gilliam have both
been active in their campaigns.
They have not, however, been
greeted by such crowds as has
Governor Talmadge.
The crowds tnat ‘have: greeted
Judge Pittman have been satis
factory, according to- his friends
and supporters. He has' made a
whirlwind campaign, but how ef
fective it has been remains to be
' seen on September 12. Ed Gilliam
has not been idle,"but he has made
‘a most active campaign, independ
ent of factional ‘political support,
it is said tnat =he has gained
ground, lespecially among -those
'who believe in the repeal of the
state “bone dry” law. At any rate
the campaign as waged by these
‘gentlemen has been one of
interest, if not illuminating and!
constructive. It has given the peo
ple something to talk about durirg
the dull months prior to laying
by-time. ‘
So far the campaign - has l
progressed without anyone ‘be- |
ing killed or seriously wound- |
ed. Let us hope and pray for |
a continunncf of mild hostili
ties until the end. :
There is nothing to be gainedl
by falling out and quarreling over
the differences of' opinions. We
are all entitied to our own views
and no one should undertake °to
speak for the other fellow or try
to influence him from doing
something that is not riggt and
honest. Misrepresentation, wheth
er in jest or earnestness, is to
be deplored by all right thinking
people. No election has ever been
won on a campaign of slander,
abuse, and vituperations, Such
tactics will not suéceed nor will
such methods - elevate the candi
date, but on the other hand, votes
will be lost for the candidate ‘wvno
employes such a program.
“l believe,” said the cheery
philosopher, ‘“that for every
single thing you give away,
! two will come back to you.”
“Yes, that’s true,” said- the -lis
tener “Last fall I gave away my
daughter and now she -and her
husband have both come to live on |
me."” :
Well, it will soon be over
and that night there will be
much rejoicing. In the means
1 time, lets try to keep our
- minds free from ill feelings
and prejudice.
We have all got to live here 10~
gether long aiter the election and
| friendship should be prized more
highly than politics. The n.an
or 'woman wio puts politics above
friendship is bound to suffer the
’conseque‘nces. and usually the
consequences are expensive, if not
healing. Political wounds are
long in healing and some times,
{ after ‘the healing, the old sores
break out and then, maybe, for
vears ‘it will refuse to heal. Such
things as falling out and break
ling friendship on account of poli
tics is mighty. poor business from
which there is reaped little bene
fits. Did that feature ever occur
to the readers of this column?
‘The Witching Hour’
L .
tfls Attraction Today
; - At Palace Theater
. One of the greatest dramatic
plays in tite history of the Ameri
can theatre comes to the screen to
day when the production of Aug
ustus . Thomas’ “The Witching
!Houl"‘ plays at the Palace theatre.
In the cast are Sir Guy Standing,
John Hailiday, Judith Allen ana
Tom Brown, Gertrude Michael ana
William Frawley.
The film production retains the
errie, yet highly romantic qualities
of the play, and invests them with
{a tremendous dramatic value.
The picture has one of the
strangest plots ever conceived. It
tells the story of an old love, which
for years has existed only in mem
lory, coming to life to save and
strengthen a newly born romance.
Included in- the exciting moments
lot the picture are a murder com
| mitteed under a strange hypnotic
spell and a thrilling courtroom vin
ldicalion. using a defense as strange 1
las the crime itself. N |
i Tom Brown and Judith Allen
'play the roles of the yvoung loversi
' whose romance is tested when
'B,rown commits a crime. Under an‘
hypnotic spell at the time of the
act, he remembers nothing. No
one can be found to defend him in |
court, for all evidence points to
his guilt—and the suggested de-j
sense is too strange to be believ
able. i
The memory of the romance, be- |

SST E—
NEW YORK — Seeing the
bronze tablet in the subway sta
tion at City Hall, marking the
“First New York Rapid Transit”
and dated 1900 get me to wonder
ing about some other pioneers of
metropolitan progress, Maybe
thre'd be a story in the first taxi
lcab, the first apartment house, and
SO on.
! One of the rirst things I discov
ered was that the gubway marker
lm'rs by a margin of 27 years. The
first subway in New York, and the
world, for that matter, was built
in 1873. True, it ridn’'t go much
cf anywhere, and wasn't financial-
Iy successful. But for that matter
'the big, crowded lines of today all
are having money trouble.
l City fathers in the simple Sev
enties were aghast at the idea of
iputting rairoads underground.
Streets would coilapse and build
ings would fall into them, and that
was that. Some engineers rented
a cellar at the corner of Broadway
’and Warren street and secretly
dug a tunnel 250 feet south to
!Murmy street. In four months
they had installed tracks, g single
lsma,ll car, a steam engine at one’
lend to pull the car back and forth |
by a cable, and a telegraph system |
Ibetween the two stations, which
were within easy shouting dlstance‘
’of each other. ‘
| People flocked to see the innova
ition, but they were afraid of it.
iSo were city officials. The line
wasn’'t granted a franchcise, and
it never went any farther under
the sidewalks of New York.
Getting Even on Cabby
| The first taxicabs were more of
|a success. So much so, in fact,
|that the promoter, Harry N. Allen,
made a fortune, and is still around
here in pleasant retirement. He
was a monyed man even back in
{IOO7 yet he didn’t Telish the ex
orbitant rates cabbies were. charg
lin;r in those days. One night after
so gay party he took a girl home in
ia hansom. The ride was only a
| few blocks, but the driver said the
|fare would'be $5. ;
| Allen offered to fight, bwt a po
{liceman made him pay. Next
lmornmg. still brooding. Allen went
’around to some friends and bor
irowed a million dollars. Next he
bought a fleet of Darracq automo
biles, painted them bright red., and
installed some gadgets which
would record the distance traveled.
Incidentally he coined and copy
righted the word “taxicab,” formedi
from “motorcab” and ‘“tax meter.”
By autumn of 1907 the New
York Taxicab Co., was ready for
business. Drivers of horse-cabs
Iwere frantic because people stood
iin line at the restaurants and ho
tels waiting for the taxis to dis
charge their passengers and come
back for more. Books .of tickets
were issued, and the big spenders
of Broadway bought them by the
jdozens as gifts for chorus girls.
‘Tn no time at all Allen had ‘7OO
cars on the streets of Manhattan
and complete revenge against the
hansom cabby who’d overcharged
him. !
I New York has had tenements tor}
a century, but apartments for only
about 70 years. Landlords alwa._vsl
had the idea that nice people would
not live under the same roof with
| other families, no matter what the
conveniences or the privacy.
It was 5 man named Rutherford'
Stuyvesant who built the first
apartment. He had seen well-to
ido families living under the same

Back on Bicycle
i —————————— T, ———— ——————
ATLANTA — (AP) — A 2100-
mile journey on a racing bicycle
to the Century of Progress in
Chicago and return was almost
completed here Tuesday as Leslie
E. Seward, Savannah city fire
man, rested at local fire head
quarters preliminary to resuming
his' homeward journey this morn
ing.
' Seaward, who made the trip
from Chattanooga io Atlanta in 9
;hours 50 minutes Monday, was so
tired after the long trip that he
had to stop over for a rest before
returning home. The ride through
Georgia will take two days, so he
plans to stop at Dublin today.
The Savannah fireman, who has
‘made previous Dbicycle trips to
New York, Niagara Falls, the
Kentucky Derby and the automo
bile speed r'/es at Indianpolis,
left Chicago last Wednesday and
but for one day spent with a
friend at Owensboro, Ky., has
been on the road with his bike.
as far as Owensboro, Seward said.
'Loius Monarch accompanied him.
Sixteen miles an hour ‘was his
average for the entire trip, Sea
ward estimated, adding that his
best day was when he and Mon
arch made the 193 miles from
Chicago to Terra Haute, Ind.
They had a favorable wind at
their back then, however.
Friendly city firemen who rec
ognizes visiting brothers furnish
ed shelter at fire stations along
the route, Seaward said. He stay
ed in a Chicago hotel during the
week he was attending the
world’s fair and the cycle trades
of America convention. The trip to
Chicago took up seven days on
the road, but the homeward route
is a little longer.
One advantage of traveling by
bicycle is that one is not bothered
by hitch hikers, Seaward said.
