CATTON’S COMMENT l
BY BRUCE CATTON l
The latest “fempest in a teapot” to disturb inter
national good-will is belng brewed over a cartoon in
a “smart” American magazine. It is a good illus
tration of how a little thing, unimportant in itself.
may sometimes weigh heavily in the delicate rela
tions on which depend the friendship of peoples.
The page of cartoons was baséd on an old wheeze.
which every high school and college editor has used
at one time or another—picturés of the impossible
or unlikely, used to emphasize the acfual. This page,
entitled, “Five highly unlikely historical situations
by one who jis of the same old headlines,” showed
Huey Long entering a monastery, Admiral Byrd win
tering in Tahiti. J. P. Morgan delivering a soapbox
oration against capitalism, W. R. Htarst becoming
ambassador te Soviet Russia. and the Japanese em
peror getting the Nobel peace prize.
It is a very old form of joke among comic artists.
so threadbare in America that no one could possibly
be ghocked by it or even very much amused.
‘But the Japanese emperor, bemedaled and uni
formed, is represented drawing a cart on which lies
a ribboned scroll representing the Nobel prize. :
It. was not the implication that Emperor Hirohito
is perhaps less pedce-loving than a Quaker which
drew Japanese resentment and brought Ambassador
Saito rushing back to Washington from his vacation
to handle Japanese protests.
It was the fact that Hirohito, believed by many
of his subjects to be virtually a divinity, was shown
at the menial task of pulling a cart. To pious Japa
nese, this is a gratuitous affront. not to .he policies,
but to the person of the emperor.
Americang can not tinderstand this at all Presi
dent and Mrs. Rcosévelt have been lampooned far
worse by this same magazine. But they undersiand
American humor and American political cartooning.
They laughed whole-heartedly at such ‘tartoons of
themselves. and even asked to have the original
drawings in some cases.
Japanese r.;l;;t try to understand ftwo things in
this connection:
First. that this artist, while attacking the public
policy of the emperor, probably had not the slightest
idea of affronting the emperor’s person, and un
‘doubtedly did not know he had done so until it was
explained to him.
‘Second, that the American government has not and
can not have any control over such cartoons.
It is hard to believe that any real harm wiil have
been done by this frolicsome and, to the American
point of view, quite innocent bit of satire. But it
does show why peopleg must try to understand be:-
tér each other’s point of view, and be tolerant of it.

BONUS GOES OVER TO JANUARY
In all probability, payment of the bonus
will go over until the January 1936 ses
sion of congress. It is believed, however,
at that time the veterans of the Worid
War will receive their pay. It was, in
deed, unfortunate that the bonus bill fail
ed in the senate. The sooner the govern
ment settles with the soldier boys the bet
ter off the county will be as well as the
veterans. |
Under the terms of a new measure, in
troduced by Senators Byrnes and Steiwer,
veterans holdin.g compensation certificates
would be paid 97 per cent of the cash
value, or $970 on a certificate of SI,OOO
value. Of eourse, it is understood that if
the holder of the certificate has received a
loah such amounts would be deducted, but
no interest charges would be made from
Septmber 30, 1931, The new bill meets
with the approval of the American Legion
and of the vederans of Foreign Wars.
The proposed payment of the bonus, un
der the Byrnes bill would be paid from
the treasury of the general fund and not
through an issue of new paper meney, as
was the provision in the Patman bill. Un
less congress enacts a bill appropriating
money for the authorization of the pay
ment of bonus, the matter will become an
issue in the presidential election, sponsor
ed by the officers of the American Legion.
PRESIDENT GREEN IS .RIGHT
President William Green, of the Ameri
can Federation of Labor, has denounced
the undertaken of adriveto expel from the
organization all Communists “who are un
der orders from Moscow”. Continuing his
remarks at a meeting of the federation’s
executive council, President Green, said:
“When it is clearly proven that a member
of one of our unions is a Red carrying out
Moscow’s orders, the union will be called
upon to expel him”. ‘
The chief of the federation of labor
stated that Communists were undermining
confidence in the trade union movement,
fometning strife and urging and inspiring
violence. This action on the part of the
labor unions barring such members will
contribute much towards elevating the
standing of union labor in all sections of
the country. As a rule, the members of
‘the unions are peacefully inclined and are
liberal and reasonable in their demands,
but, too often, the real leaders are influ
enced by the Communistic element who
stir trouble and strife that results, not only
in disorder, but detrimentally to the cause
of unionism.
Labor unions should be guarded in
their selection for admission of member
ship into their order. One radical or red
soon become a disturbing element in the
ranks of organizea labor and brings on a
condition that causes the public to loose
confidence in the members and in the prin
ciples of unionism.
PLANNING FOR GREATER THINGS '
- All communities should plan for greater
improvements. It is well enough to hold
“clean-up days’”, freeing the backyards
from rubbish of all kinds, vacant lots and
unkept yards and lawns. These are small‘
plans for a community and do not meet the
requirements for a city in the decades to
come. City planning and beautifying un
der a permanent program means much for
posterity. It opens the way for carrying
on and keeping pace with the future. Chi
cago is gaid to be one of the most beauti
ful planned cities in the nation. In the
earlier days of that city, Daniel Burnham
was a great believer in planning for the
future. He is quoted as saying:
“Make no little plans; they have no
magic to stir men’s blood and probably
themselves will not be realized. Make big
plans; aim high in hope and work, remem
bering that a noble, logical diagram once
recorded will never die, but long after we
are gone will be a living thing, asserting
itself with ever-growing insistency. Re
member that our sons and grandsons arve
going to do things that would stagger us.
Let your watchword be order and your
beacon beauty.”
- If the present day and time community
builders would ¢dopt the slogan of the
Burnham of years ago, the heautification
and permanent improvements would add
much to the appearance of every town and
city in the United States.
COATLESS MAN DRAWS FINE
In the fashionable district in Radio City,
a man was fined for entering an elevator
without his coat. When arrested, the coat
less man protested, claiming that he had
a right to walk the streets without his coat
and he saw no reason why he should not
ride in an elevator in his shirt sleeves. The
question is one of personal privilege and
comfort. If the weather in New York has
been as hot and suffocating as it has been
in this section of the country, we believe
that a person would be justifiable in walk
ing the streets and riding in elevators in
his “shorts”.
There are many fads indulged in by the
people in thes: unusual times that are far
more objectionable than tramping around
dressed c.atless. Comfort should be con
sidered first; certainly if it is fashion
able for the ladies to wear apparel with
out sleeves, it is mo more disgraceful for
the men to go without their coats. |
If the present seige of hot weather con
tinues, we are in favor of organizing a hat
less and coatless club with provisions in
the by-laws setting up immunity for mem
bers should such dressing by men prove a
lv:olatlon of any city ordinance or state

BEGIN HERE TODAY
JO DARIEN breaks her en
gagement to BRET PAUL, col
lege athletic star, because
Bret objects to her taking a
job as hostess at Crest Lake
Inn, fashionable summer resort
owned by wealthy DOUGLAS
MARSH.
Jo goes to Crest Lake.
Marsh’s eccentric mother dis
likes her and causes difficul
ties. These are increased when
PETER FRAGONET, film ac
tor, arrives. Fragonet pays
marked attentions to Jo, asks
her to marry him as soon as he
can secure a divorce.
Bret Paul comes to Crest
Lake as life guard. BABS
MONTGOMERY, school ac
quaintance who is jealous of
Jo, is also there.
Fragonet leaves and returns
when his film company under
takes to make part of a mo
tion picture at the resort. He
begs Jo to run to Hollywood
with him. She delays her de
cision.
Jo becomes friendly with
LOLA MONTEZ, actress. Dur
ing a scene on the lake Lola
narrowly escapes drowning and
is rescued by Bret Paul.
NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
CHAPTER XXX
Jo's realization that it was Bret
Paul and not Peter Fragonet who
had rescued her from the lake
was momentarily swept away in
the excitement, As Bret dived from
the spedboat Jo surged forward
with the rest of the crowd, strain
ing to catch a glimpse of Lolta
Montez on the bright sunlit sur
face of the lake. Drann, thorough
ly frightened and excited now, was
leaping up and down in the boat,
shouting unnecessary directions at
the top of his lungs,
Then Bret bobbed into view, and
beside him Jo saw with relief the
bedraggled dark hair of Lolita
Montez. An involuntary ecry went
up - from the crowd on shore as
Drann helped Bret lift the inert
figure into the boat. Then, as
Fragonet struggled aboard, the cry
stopped abruptly—as if there was
only the silence of contempt for
him.
Queerly, despite her feelings for
Lolita, Jo was sorry for Fragonet.
They had no right to lift him up,
then dash him down in silence just
begause he'd never learned to swim
well enough. Drann had driven
him, just as he'd driven Montez
from that tower. And Fragonet
had argued with Drann. Sudden
ly hate welled up inside her for
this stocky, egotistical Dranm who
could gambie with lives to gain a
few seconds’ effect on the screen.
There was no more “shooting”
that day, and as Jo and Tubby
walked back to the Inn they were
strangely silent. On the veranda
Jo said, “I wish you'd come up to
my room, Tubby.”
Inside Jo's room she faced Tub
by Davis. “Why didn’t you tell
me Bret Paul saved my life that
day on the lake?”
“Why, I thought you knew
Tubby exclaimed. “I—who did you
think did it?” '
“I thought it was Fragonet.”
Tubby sank into a chair. “Weil,
am I relieved! I was wondering
what had got into you. It didn't
seem like you to ignore the fact
that Bret had saved your life. Not
even to thank him for it. I tried
to open up the subject several
times, but vou always cut me off.”
“1 didn’t even know Bret was
at Crest Lake then.”
“He’d come jumt tmat morning.”
Tubby said. “He was standing on
the shore having his first view of
the lake when Babs bit your sail
boat.”
Jo stared at the wall. “I wonder
what he must think of me? I can
understand a lot of things . . .
THE BANNER-HERALD, ATHENS, GEORGIA
“l don’t know what Bret thinks
of you,” Tubby said. “But I know
darned well what I think of this
Fragonet. Letting you believe he
saved your life! Why, it's all he
can do to keep himself afloat. He
proved that today.”
Jo smiled. “He didn’t let me be
lieve it. I'm sure he thinks I knew
it was Bret Paul.”
“But haven’t you ever mentioned
it to him?”
“1 startea to thank him when
1 regained consciousness after the
accident, but he wouldn’t let me
tailk _.about what happened. He
didn’t want me to get disturbed
about it—and I suppose I thought
he was being modest about what
he'd done. So I never referred to
it again.”
“Well, don’t you think it's time
you were referring to it—to Bret?”
Jo nodded soberly. “You don’t
have to remind me of that, Tubby.
That's something I'm going to do
right now.”
But Bret was meither at the lake
nor in his cottage, and one of the
house boys‘ explanied to Jo that
“Mistah Paul” was in conference
with Silas Drann. ‘“He take place
Mistah Fragonet in swim tomolla!”
The little Oriental grinned know
ingly. .
“If you see Mr. Paul I wish
you'd tell him I'm very anxious to
see him,” Jo instructed.
She returned to her room and
found Tubby sprawled on the bed,
munching chocolate creams. Hur
riedly swallowing, Tubby looked at
her questionably. “What did he
say.?"
“I didn't get to see him. Ap
parently he's going to double for
Fragonet in that scene tomorrow.
He's with Drann now.”
“That's lucky for Montez"” ob
served Tubby, “as well as for Bret.
Come to 'think of it, why wouldn’t
Bret Paul make a swell movie
hero?”
“I guess he would, Tubby.”
Jo wakened next morning with
out having heard from Bret. She
wondered if he had received her
message and was ignoring it. Per
haps he did not want to talk with
her at all, now that he was so
contemptuous of the man he
thought she cared for. Perhaps he
believed that a girl who would be
interested in Fragonet deserved
nothing, not even common courte
sy.
Jo could understand his con
tempt for Fragonet. No two men,
she thought, were ever more un
like. To a boy like Bret Paul who
had worked hard always for what
little he could gain from life, Peter
Fragonet must appear to be the
epitome of worthlessness. And now
Bret, proud of his own physical
prowess, had seen Fragonet brand
ed with cowardice.
It must have hurt Bret that Jo
had said never a word about the
day she was pitched unconscious
from the sailboat. And it must
have hurt still more when he sa'v
her accepting the attentions of
Marsh and Barston—and Fragonet
himself. Whatever was to happen
in the future between her and
Bret, she must find him and patch
up the past.
Her resolve was easier made
than carried out. All that day
Bret, with nis hair darkened, and
d essed to resemble Fragonet in
the role of a forester, was busy
with Drann’s company. W h il e
¥ragonet kept to his room, the
company went through the scenes
which had resulted in such a fias
co the day before.
Jo hung abour the Ilake shora
with Tubby most of the day, pre
tending interest in the filming: in
reality she was hoping to have a
word with Bret. But Bret, quite
literally, spent most of the day in
the lake or in Drann’s speedboat.
The only member of the company
Jo had a chance to talk to was
Lolita Montez, looking none the
orse for -her - experience of -the
“You don’t know how frightened
you had me yesterday,” Jo told
her,
Montez smiled. “Those things
will happen. And it certainly:
wasn't Fragonet's fault. Drenn
goes insane sometimes when he
gets an idea into his head, andl
Fragonet had told him he didn’t
think he could handle the scene.”
“You knew it, too?’ asked Jo
amazed.
The other nodded. ;
5 “And ’yet you went ahead with‘w
Bivviiy lokl
The actress shrugged. “It's part 4
of the business,” she said. |
Then Montez was called by
Drann, and Jo saw her mo more
that day. Neither did she see Bret.
The director worked his outfit like
mad until the sun was weak be
hind the trees, and it was rumored |
that he planned to leave for Holly
wood sooner than he had original
ly intenuded. The near-tragedy had
disturbed his ego, for he knew that
almost all who had seen it held it
againts him. Drann found it mo
longer pleasing to show off before
the spectators who lined the shore
of the lake. And he knew, too,
that Fragonet would probably be
relieved indeed to get away from
the stares of the men and women
to whom he had been a hero one
day and a coward the next.
Unable to have even a moment
with Bret during the day, Jo told
herself that she must go to his cot
tage that night. She mustn't let
another day go by without telling
Bret she appreciated what he had
done. Even mow he was likely to
believe she was turning to him
only because Fragonet had made
a fool of himself at Crest Lake.
«But it isn’t true that Fragonet
made a fool of himself,” Jo thought
stoutly. “It was Drann who made
a fool of him.”
She had dinner earlier than
usual, to escape the guests in the
dining room and the long after
dinner conversations which usually
went on over the cofice and cig
arets Then, smiling her thanks at
the house boy who had served her,
Jo left her table.
But in the lobby she encountered
Douglas Marsh.
“Hello, Jo! Had dinner already?
. . . I hoped you'd take it with
me. Have you anything planned
right now?”
TWHY i . o.nn!
“Good! Join me in a demi--
tasse, at least We must have a
party for the movie crowd and 1
want to talk it over with you
Drann has decided to leave day
after tomorrow. That means the
party has to be tomorrow night.
Rather short notice, but—" he
grinned at her, “] guess we can
show ’em a good time”.
“Of course,” Jo said.
“Come in and sit down with me
and we'll make plans.”
Silently Jo accepted Marsh’s arm
and returned to the dining room
with him. :

How Old Age Pension l
System Would Work
“E: ” l
In “Bill Jones” Case
—————————————————————
WASHINGTON.—(/P)—By way
of example, this is how the con
tributory old age pension system
in the social security bill is de
signed to apply to “Bill Jones™:
Syppose young Bill, is 20 when
the bill goes into effect and makes
an average monthly salary of SIOO
until he is 65. He will get a
monthly pension, until his death,
of $53.75.
In detail, here is what will hap
pen to himg
In the calendar years 1937, 1938
and 1939, he will pay a salary tax
of 1 percent, or a total of $36 for
the three years. In 1940, 1941 and
1942, he will pay 1% percent, or
$54. In 1943, 1944 and 1945, the
tax will be 2 percent. or $72. In
1946, 1947 and 1948, the tax will
be 2% percent, or S9O. From 1949
to 1981, inclusive, the tax will be
3 percent, or a total of $l,lBB so)
those 33 years.
| Thus, in 45 years, Bill Jones
will have paid in $1,440. All the
'time, his employer will have been
“matching his tax payments, so
the total paid to the federal treas
}ury will be $2,880.
At 65, Bill Jones can expect to
live perhaps 10 years more. If he
| does, he will get back $6,450.
When Bill Jones dies, this 18
what will happen: ;
His average annual salary wiil
be multiplied by the number of
years he paid taxes. In other
words, if he dies after he hes
paid taxes for 45 years, $1,200 will
be multiplied by 46—giving a to
tal of $54,000. Arbitrarily, the L'}
stipulates that Bill Jones' estate
shall be entitled to 3% percent of
that, or sl,B9oo—less any amount
he received in pensions before he
died. 2 »
If Jones cdies before he gets
back $1,830 in pensions, what ae
actually received is deducted from
SI,BOO and the balance paid to
his heirs. If he lives until he gets
back all of the $1,890 and more,
his heirs get nothing.
If Jones should die before he
reaches 65, his heirs would be
entitled to a payment of 3% per
cent of the total wages on whicn
taxes had been paid.
