Some observers believe that a month's time will be consumed talking about the member ship of this country and that we will join at the end of , that time by a vote substantially the same as the .present poll would indicate. When all the talking is ended and the opinion of only a few has been altered, Charlie Dawes should have new ammunition to use in his fight against the sen ale's time-wasting practices.

' Pr?judict'H, which they come naturally by, cause nations, liices and peoples to think themselves and their institutions nupcrior to all others. Except where there is rebellion, each country is convinced its form of government is the best. Man has yet td find n race or people, .which lays no. claim to superiority over all other races or admits its own inferi . ority. Illustration of this point is translation into English' f nn editorial printed in a pro-Fascist newspaper in Rome. "Italian victories in every field where risk is joined with endurance, skill and physical perfection have become so common that they may no longer swell with pride the bos oms of our fellow countrymen," reads this patriotic pro nouncement from Italy. "Each of these new demonstra-l tions of our racial superiority naturally raises the question whether, a people capable of winning such triumphs does .not likewise possess, when compared with other nations, a su perior capacity for governing itself by original and pro gressive methods. The repetition of such triumphs is tanta mount to n reaffirmation of jxilitical superiority, which will lie recognized eventually both at home and abroad, and which should insplro the Italian people wilfi new hope and faith." , ; Thus do the Italians apply to themselves the identical phrases in self-approbation that the people of every coun try now, will and ever shall employ in their patriotic com parisons. This editorial from Rome is peculiarly significant just at this time when so much is heard hero of Nordic siieriority and of the crimes of the Mussolini dictatorship.

Hep rcseiitative Sol Hlooin's bill to 1 amend the immigration law, so i as to let foreign "hir'd erirls" Into, the country 011 a non-quota basin, j is tho subject of a good deal of discussion in congress. ... j J'cople not so very old omits-: member when nearly every even moderately prosperous American family had its hired girl. J-ler pay averaged around $3 a week. ' . As we nil know, this epoch Is past. Sol Hlooni says so and It's trim. A domestic servant costs so muehl that a family has to verge on hy ing actually rich to keep one. in I the vuat majority of American ! households the missis does bur own work. Housework is hard work, as Sol again truthfully says. . Ilo doesn't blame the American woman for disliking it, as evidently she does. he takes notice, for she shows at. j alarmingly increasing tendency to ward getting something else to do. or. If that's unnecessary toward , hotel or restaurant life. j Thus. 'in Sol's opinion, the Amer ican homo is In danger a danger which more hired girls would avert, so Sol thinks. Of course the immigrants would have, to be genuine hired girls. Sol provides for that. He renilr- of them at least a year's foreign 1 xperienre in domestic service ai:l a minimum of, three years of it here. v Ulght at tills point the bill's critics mine an objection. The girls virtually would be bond servants for those three years, they argue. 1 're vent a girl, " for three years, from rising in llf". If capable of It! "Wholly un-t American!

Today as they stand trial for their great crime they are in the eyes and on the tongue of tho world. A year from now the end of the first year of life imprisonment they are forgotten by the outside world. What a terrible penalty to pay for the praUricalion i of n foolish passion. Oscar Wilde called them the "living dead." I Hut how much worse is the lot of the "lifer" from that' of millions who live not behind pray stone walls and iron j bars? I'oth work, cat and sleep but do nothing: more. Vir-j tual oblivion surrounds both, lloth arc numbered. The j only difference is that the first is involuntarily confined within four crowding walls and the second voluntarily con fines himself within a compass of life little larger than a ' prison cell. i 1 This self-imposed imprisonment is not peculiar to the gleat city anil neither is it confined to the rural areas. Millions in the city tire held captive' mentally and physically by their work and home. They know few of their I'ellow men and women and have fewer intimate friends. The world is ns unconscious of their existence as of those crea tures in the cells of real stone imd bars. Others in tho country live within the narrow confines of the farm or small isolated community. Neither by travel nor by read-! ing do they attempt to bring themselves into contact with ! the outside world. They also are captives within them-! selves.
