NO NEED FOR ANY NEW 'ISM' Events of the last year certainly have given us an cduc tion in the uses to which letters of the alphaliet can be put, what with the RFC, the PWA, the CCC, the CAVA, the HOLC, and so on. But there is one g'oup of three letters that has won more publicity than any of these, and that very profit ably might be dropped now, for a while at least the group ISM- We have wasted enough energy, of Lite, arguing the pros and cons of capitalism, socialism, communism, fascism and heaven knows what other kind of ism, to bridge the Atlantic. It has got us, as far as anyone can see, precisely nowhere, and it's aJxiut time we turned to something else. It Is perfectly foolish to sy that American democracy has failed. We hare hardly, an far. made a whole-souled attempted to make It work. To let the troubles of Die last few years persuade us that we must find our salvation In some Ism or other In socialism, fascism, or what you please la to take the lazy man's way out. It is to hunt for some formula which wul relieve us of the necessity of working and sweating and thinking our way out of the mess Into which we got ourselves. To work together to Improve what we have, to find some way of working and living together which will be the best thing for the greatest number of people, and at the aame time developing all this within the framework of our existing Institutions bere Is a cause worth all our brains and our energy. If we try it whole-heartedly, and fall, then and not before then we can start worrying about the Isms. SICK SAMUEL KLIPS SENTRIES Poor old Samuel Insull Sr., who is wanted in the United States to answer to some emliezzlement charges some say it was a "grand" theft, put one over on the Grecian govern ment yesterday when, probably disguised as a woman, he slipped through one of those famous police cordons. Possibly the Greek sentries figured that the sick old woman who passed through their ranks Samuel has teen sick, you know had been begging for medicine or some thing, or just sharin' miseries with Samuel. Or .possibly the sick old woman may have dropped her purse just as she went by the cordon. Anyway, sick oP, slick oP Samuel slipped one over on the Greeks, We wonder if they "have a name for that," too. Maybe it's a naughty, naughty one, who knows? A WORTHY ORGANIZATION The American Legion here, on the eve of the celebration of the 15th anniversary of the national organization's found ing, agreed to sponsor a drive to help the Salvation Army chapter handle La Grande's transient problem. Which is one more very worthy endeavor that this veter ans' organization has added to its long list of community services. The legion continues to grow from year to year, both in membership and helpTulness to the nation, and we wish to congratulate them not only for this latest move ment, but for all the "good turns" they have dono in the last 15 years. "Insull Dons Skirt And Slips" says heading of story in Pendleton's East Oregonian regarding recent getaway of much wanted financier. The old lioy may be lacking in many desirable characteristics but at least ho retains some old time modesty, according to our neighlxir hoadwriler. General White, one of the four founders of the American Legion in Paris In 1019, officer In commsnd of the national guard In this area. ' pointed out that "the men who served at Antletam, in the wilderness, and at Gettysburg, saved our country from division end possible dissolu tion." "Yet how small a service was that," be continued, "compared with the service they performed in the years that followed. "The Grand Army of the Republic Is forming now for its last muster. "Inevitably, as human life goes, the American Legion, the ex-service men of today, will come one day to their own last muster. And when that day comes the record of the American Legion can be written In one word the word 'service'." General White blamed "unscrupu lous politicians" 'for connecting the word "bonus" with the legion. In stead of the word "service." He de nounced tnose who nave "used" the legion for their "own selfish ends." and who thus have brought criticism upon the ex-service men.
