After all, you know, this little clambake is put on for your benefit and for your enjoyment, so, if you don't like the way it's run it's your duty to say some thing about it. It Isn't like the weather something you don't like and can do nothing about. On the last week's show we had something of a "field day" for members of the Spence Family, w-ith. both Ronald and Ramona doing their bit toward making your afternoon more enjoyable On this show, too. were such well-known personalities as Fred Andrews, Leontine Lebold. and an old favorite of long standing, Orville Beardsley.

Scientific Analysis of Economic, Social Ills Needed to Safeguard American Democracy, Says Speaker SILVERTON America must be as scientific in dealing with her social problem as she is in dealing with her public health if she would make "democracy safe," according to Dr. John C. Duval, sociologist and world traveler who spoke be fore a large adult forum group at the high school auditorium Thursday night. Dr. Duval was introduced by Herman Kra mer, principal ol the senior nigav school, and he spoke on the sub ject, "How Safe is Democracy?" "Symptoms are only steps in analysis. Cause and not symp toms must be studied if a democ racy is to be preserved. You don't treat the rash, yon treat the dis ease that causes the rash," Duval said. Free trade and staying out of the present world war were two points on which Dr. Duval insisted at least a portion of democracy's safety rested. Each state in Am erica, he explained, is a sovereign power and yet no tariff between these states exist. Cooperation, rather than cut-throat competi tion, is what is needed between the countries today, he Baid. Other pertinent points brought out by Dr. Duval were: Dr. Duval insisted that "before we start out again to make the world 6afe for democracy we should begin to make democracy safe at home. W'e should be care ful not to develop a class that has everything to gain and nothing to lose from a revolutionary uphea val." Causes of democracy's failure, Dr. Duval said are four major ones: The lack of a further fron tier to go to when out of work. Collapse of the economic system. Failure of government to do any thing about it after the econom ic system fails. A revolutionary organization. Dr. Duval will return in two weeks and speak on the subject, "The Present War and the Next World Peace."
