Inspiring Good Will
Those who aspire to leadership
today must realize that concilia
tion often is wiser than coercion;
that it is more important to in
spire good will than instill fear,
that workers are not cogs in the
machinery, but human beings of
like flesh and blood and aspira
tions as themselves. B. C.

National Topics Interpreted
.By WILLIAM PPI ICKART WWffM
NATIONAL PRESS BLDG. WASHINGTON, D. C.
Washington.—Several years ago I
expressed in these columns the con
viction that one
One Thing thing America
■ Needed needed was a con-
gress which
would cease attempting to amend
the law of supply and demand. The
observation was made in the midst
of the most depressed economic con
ditions that modern times had
known and it brought down upon
my head a vast amount of criticism.
Readers wrote me at length about
the stupidity that I had displayed
by making such a statement.
Reference to that circumstance is
made here at this time, because it
is apropos again. It is apropos be
cause we are in a political cam
paign out of which will come either
the re-election of Franklin D. Roose
velt or the election of Governor
Landon of Kansas. The results of
this political campaign are going to
hinge to a considerable extent on
the attitude of the farmers of this
country and if there is one segment
of the American economic structure
to whom the law of supply and de
mand means more than to another,
it is to the farmers.
Now, Democratic spokesmen are
going about the country talking
about soil conservation, about relief
for the farmers, about anything and
everything that will give the farm
ers money.
Republican spokesmen are shout
ing and waving their arms with
other propositions to aid the farm
er. Some of them probably are
workable, and if they are workable
they must be considered construc
tive.
But the point I am trying to make
is that in the case of either can
didate, there is still too much of
the idea of the superficial, of surface
help, for agriculture. In other
words, the programs still take into
account some circumvention of the
law of supply and demand. That
statement is not wholly true of Gov
ernor Landon’s farm program, but
unless the New Dealers come for
ward with more than they have
thus far advanced, I think it can
be said their program offers noth
ing more than a continued raid on
the Treasury of the United States
with no plans at all for correcting
underlying conditions.
There was one phase of Governor
Landon’s program, as advanced in
speeches at Des Moines, lowa and
Minneapolis, Minn, that appealed to
me. Brushing aside verbiage and
detail, Governor Landon basically
has in mind, apparently, a desire
to get the government out of the
farmer’s hair. He seems convinced
that there are many things which
the farmers would like to do for
themselves and will do for them
selves if the machinery upon which
they can operate is made available.
He proposes, for example, to seek
legislation that will enable the farm
ers to finance themselves through
borrowing from commercial agen
cies, banks and trust companies, in
stead of from the government. With
that I agree to the fullest. It means
simply that farmers again can be
masters of their own souls as well
as the crops which they grow for
it, puts them in a position to sell
when they want to sell, without the
necessity for asking permission
from a bureaucrat in Washington.
It means further that no bureaucrat
in Washington can issue an order
to that farmer that he must dispose
of his stored crop.
It seems to me as well that any
one who analyzes the present regi
mentation of the farmers from
Washington must recognize that
which has always been true: Every
time the government, which means
politicians, attempts to mess into
private business, that private busi
ness goes from bad to worse and it
does not matter how bad it was
when bureaucrats took hold. It
will be worse thereafter.
• * •
I have been wondering, however,
how far Mr. Landon will go in en
couragement of
nits Root of the family type
Farm Problem farms. You will
remember that he
spoke at length of family type farms
in his Des Moines address. Person
ally, I feel that he hit upon a very
important point. I think it is im
portant because it strikes at the
root of the farm problem.
In discussing help for the man
who owns or wants to own a small
farm, Governor surely is
proposing a program that will serve
this nation well because no nation
whose farms are widely owned by
those who operate them can be
headed toward fascism or commun
ism. I do not know how the Gov
ernor as President will be able to
put the federal government behind
such a program, but it is to be
assumed that he had definite ideas
on the subject or he would not have
boldly stated his position. My hope
is that it can be done not with
government money, but with money
supplied from private institutions
since there has been too much gov
erment competition with business of
the nation already. Further, regret-
THE SUMMERVILLE NEWS: THURSDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1936
ful as it is, the federal government
has not and cannot have any func
tion in that field for the reason that
it inevitably leads further into pol
itics, further into waste and the
eventual destruction of the people
whom the demagogues claim they
are helping.
The reason I have advocated this
action so strongly is the fact that
there are too many tenant
in the United States now, far too
many. It is fundamental, in my
opinion, that this nation can get on
with the present trend. It is sad,
but it is true, that there are about
forty per cent of our farms now
operated by tenants. In other
words, one out of less than three
farms in the United States is worked
by a man who does not own it.
♦ ♦ ♦
Some information was made pub
lic the other day to the effect that
85 per cent of the
Press for newspapers of the
Landon country were sup-
porting Governor
Landon as against President Roose
velt in this campaign. I do not
know the actual percentage and I
do not vouch for the figures I have
reported to you. But of this I am
certain: I believe that Governor
Landon does have more editorial
support than any presidential nom
inee has had in the last six cam
paigns, with the exception of Pres
ident Roosevelt as a candidate in
1932.
It has been interesting to watch
the various important independent
newspapers as they have studied
the two candidates this year and
have reached conclusions as to the
nominee they will support. I am
not now referring to hide-bound Re
publican papers, nor to newspapers
that could normally be expected to
support the more conservative of
the two candidates. I am thinking
of independent or distinctly Dem
ocratic newspapers that have an
nounced their opposition to the
Roosevelt cause. Let me mention
a few of them: The St. Louis
Post-Dispatch, the Omaha World
Herald, the Baltimore Sun, to men
tion only three.
* • •
There was a great newspaper, one
of the greatest, that took a stand
for President
New York Roosevelt a few
Times days ago. I re-
fer to the Ne vz
York Times. No one can ever say
that the New York Times ever has
failed to arrive at its conclusions
without giving all factors concerned
careful study. lam saying by this
that the New York Times is honest
and sincere. But I must say at
the same time that the New York
Times has a background as an in
stitution and it has a clientele of
readers for whom it speaks and its
accession to the Roosevelt cause is
a perfectly natural position for it
to take. For years the New York
Times has contended that America
should participate to a greater ex
tent in world affairs. It has con
tended, without exception, for policies
of an internationalism with which
a great many thinking people dis
agree. Its view, concretely, appears
to be that we cannot correct de
pression conditions unless the
United States as a nation whole
heartedly moves in the circle of
governments that rule Europe and
Asia, especially in matters of an
economic character.
I do not know what Governor
Lando n’s pronouncements o n
foreign policy are going to be. But
I have observed the policies that
have had the backing of the New
York Times over a number of years
and it seems to me that they re
sult in greater benefits to a limited
class than to the country as a whole.
I am not a rabble rouser; I do not
link the New York Times with the
money-changers of Wall street as
the demagogues describe them. It
is just the perspective that I have
gained of the whole picture since I
have no axes to grind.
In the case of those newspapers
that have turned against Mr. Roose
velt, there is to some extent a con
sideration of local interests, circum
stances of concern to the communi
ties which they serve, just as in
the case of the New York Times.
The point is, however, that in the
case of newspapers turning against
Mr. Roosevelt, their new positions
are predicated on what appears to
me to be traditional American
bases. That is to say, they are
adhering to the principles which I
believe to have been the foundation
stones of American history. I have
no quarrel with the attitude of that
school of thought that believes we
should engage further in interna
tional affairs than we have done.
It is their conviction and they have
a right to it. Yet, it is not mine.
I have said may times in these
columns that I will support any
proposition that is good for America
as a whole; I have contended con
sistently for Americanism and the
things which that means, and I have
argued always for sound gov
eiMient.

HAVE you heard Hildegarde
on the radio? You must,
not merely because she is delight
ful in away all her own, but be
cause it is always interesting to
watch the progress of someone
who is on the way to stardom.
Not so many years ago she was
playing the piano in a motion pic
ture theater. She went abroad. First
thing she knew, the Milwaukee girl
was singing for royalty—King Ed
ward VIII when he was Prince of
Wales, the King of Sweden, ex-
King Alfonso of Spain, the Duke and
Duchess of Kent—they all helped
make her one of the toasts of Eu
rope.
Now she has come back home,
and broadcasts on Tuesday eve
nings from ten to ten-thirty, and
on Saturdays from eight to eight
thirty over N. B. C.

Marlene Dietrich couldn’t wait to
get off to Europe—and now she
can’t wait to get
home! She is mak- r
ing a picture in Eng- ■
land, you know, and H 4
there have been de- i
lays (it’s reported
that Robert Donat |
walked out on it, for K
reasons not an- 1
nounced at the ML
time) and she
doesn’t know when
she’ll return. She is
so sold on Holly- Marlen e
wood that she tele- Die trich
phoned her studio
dress designer to ask his advice on
the gowns she will wear in the Eng
lish picture—perhaps she was afraid
that the designers over there
wouldn’t let her wear enough feath
ers!
Well, another grand picture has
come along, one of the best in years.
It is “My Man Godfrey,” with—
Carole Lombard, William Powell,
Alice Brady, Gail Patrick, Jean
Dixon, Eugene Pallette and Alan
Mowbray. It is almost too funny—
you find yourself laughing so hard
at one bit of funny dialogue that
you miss the next one.
Take it from Simone Simon, who
has become so tremendously popu
lar in so short a time, her name
should be pronounced “Semone
Semon”—but it takes a French stu
dent to get that last syllable ex
actly right. She is having a grand
time in Hollywood; goes out prac
tically every night, looking even
younger and cuter than she does on
the screen, and gets just about
everything she wants at the studio
by day.
It is good news for Nelson Eddy’s
many admirers that his new fall
series of broadcasts is under way.
He began them September 27 from
Hollywood, on a nation-wide Colum
bia network of eighty-two stations,
and will continue to broadcast from
there until his concert engagements
lake him East in January.
You can’t help liking Errol Flynn.
He refuses to let making pictures
______ dominate his life,
perhaps because he
did so many things
before he became
a an actor. He learned

paratively recently,

ment and had to
play Frank Shields,
gs. but he gave a good
account of himself,
Errol Flynn though he was up
against a champion. When he lived
in New Guinea he collected rare
snakes for Dr. Raymond Ditmars.
Now he collects rare insects for
British museums, and his wife, Lily
Damita, goes along, though she
loathes bugs and doesn’t particu
larly care for the Mojave desert,
where he does his collecting.

No doubt you’ve heard Ed
win C. Hill who comments so ably
on news events. Well, he’s starting
something original with his new
series. He will begin with a sum
nary of the week’s news, and after
that, with the aid of a cast of
actors, will dramatize a presenta
tion of the story of some unknown
American hero or heroine.
ODDS AND ENDS . . . Buster Crabbe,
after teaching Harold Lloyd’s children
to swim, had begun giving lessons to
Shirley Temple . . . The March of Time
is off the air for only a short while, just
to give the people who do it a chance to
rest after sixty successive weeks of broad
casting . . . Eleanor Powell ordered fif
teen pairs of slacks at once; the Holly
wood habit of wearing them got her, and
now all she needs is a mink coal to wear
with them . . . Helen Hayes, who is
broadcasting again, wears a slave bracelet
instead of a wedding ring . . . If 7 hen Bing
Crosby gets back into the harness and be
gins making pictures and broadcasting
again, he’ll have a new title—president
of the Del Mar Turf club; it’s near San

Puttering Around the House-
Time-Wasting Work of Putting
Away Things Others Have Used
■\X7HEN a family is orderly,
’’no one has to do much put
tering about. When the members
are not particular where they put
their things, it becomes the un
desirable duty of some person to
spend much time in just this
very thing, puttering. Hours are
wasted daily in such trivialities
as gathering up new spa iters
spread about, picking up and put
ting away gloves, hats, scissors,
thimbles, pencils, etc. Whatever
it may be that has been in use,
and not put away by the user,
or has been put in the wrong
place, must be placed where it
belongs or the house would re
flect poor housekeeping.
Nondescript Tasks.
The time given to these non
descript jobs should be given by
those who leave the work to
others. Putting things away is
part of the job connected with
using the things, just as much
as getting the things out, is part
of it. The work is regular and
legitimate and only becomes an
annoyance when left for the
wrong person to do.
Left-Over Jobs.
No person wants her time frit
tered away doing the left-over
jobs of others. Nobody enjoys

having a person puttering around,
either. It is distracting to at
tention, and disturbing to the
nerves. From both the angle of
the person who putters about and
those who have to endure the
annoyance of such activity, there
should be some remedy found.
Remedies Suggested
Mothers can teach their chil
dren to put their playthings away
when through with them. Thia
is the first step to take. Then
she can instruct the little folk
to put their outside things away
when they come in from out
doors. Children can get into the
habit of orderliness by being
made to realize that what they
don’t do, has to be done by
mother who is very busy and
often too tired to do the extra
tasks. Affection will gain the
day.
Breaking the Habit.
Adults should consider how to
break themselves of the repre
hensible habit of leaving work
they should do, to be completed
by others. If they really deter
mine to stop this bothersome
fault, they will decrease the
necessity of puttering about by
the person who heartily dislikes
the work, but who, for the sake
of order prefers to do it rather
than have disorder around.
