HOIIAII Tho LaFollette-Costlgan dole bill, which will distribute. II enacted Into law. 376.0OO.0O0 among the unem ployed, Is giving the grnnd-8tanders in congress their big Inning. The senate Is at bat now and Senator Borah has taken a big swing at the boll. Later the house members will get then- turn, If the senate passes the bill, and then their demagogs win nave tneir chance. Borah's cut at the ball, which was an attempt to hit It out ol the lot, was futile, for Instead of pleasing the grandstand he angered It. The tem peramental and erratic solon lost his balanco enough to charge that every person who opposes the bill Is a traitor to his country, unpatriotic and unworthy. With oratorical emphasis no asserted: "A government which will not pro tect those who protect It Is flying a flag which Is a dirty rag, contamin ating the air In which It flics." Now that's a pretty rank display of demagogy not only that, It's an Insult to the government and to every American who opposes the dole on high pntrlotlo grounds. Perhaps tho Idaho senator has a distorted conception of governmental protection. The true definition of tills term Is the willingness and the capacity of government to guarantee Its people a strong, permanent gov ernmental agency. It does not mean that tho government should feed its ixjoplo.
