(Autocaster Service) THE EFFORT in Congress to pauperize vast numbers of Amep icans by voting money from the public funds as a free gift seems to have failed. The time-tried Am erican method of relieving econom ic distress by private charity is working out The Red Cross has the drought-relief situation well in hand and the people of the United States have responded in full to its appeal for funds. Such money as has been appro priated from the public treasury for the relief of farmers who are compelled to make a fresh start in life because of the drought will be made available to them on terms which will not sacrifice their self respect nor render them objects of Government charity. There are a few in every community who would rather get something without work ing for it than to do an honest day's work, and they are usually the ones who are most vociferous in their demands for help. But the time has not yet come when any consid erable portion of Americans are ready to confess that they cannot support themselves, and are willing to live in idleness at the expense of their fellow-citizens. NO GROUND FOR FEAR. (Autocaster Service) IT IS USELESS to deny that the present state of mind of many Americans is fear of what the fu ture may bring. Fear seems to be prevalent in all public thinking on economics to day. People are afraid that things are not going to "come back," that somehow we have lost our stride as a nation and are not going to be able to get going again at the old pace. There is more money now in savings banks than ever before in history. Much of it has been put there in the past year because peo ple were afraid to spend it. Mer chants have been afraid to replen ish their stocks, for fear prices would go down still farther. Indiv iduals have been afraid that condi tions were going to get continually worse. There is nothing in our history to warrant such fears. The only way to judge the future is by the past All our past history reveals a suc cession of forward steps, never a backward one. The pace has slackened at times, as it has slack ened in the past eighteen months, Sunday School Less on fcj ai International Sunday School Lesson for March 1 JESUS SENDING FORTH MISSIONARIES Luke 10:1-11, 17, 21, 22 REV. SAMUEL D. PRICE, D. D. Here is a lesson that is much larg er than appears at first glance. Too many fail to reach the heart of the matter because they are about as unrelated as those who flippantly talk about "giving it the once over." Dig deep this time and you will dis cern the program that Jesus pre sented to complete His entire mis sionary enterprise. He did not plan to reach the people en masse, as when He fed the five thousand. His plan was to go after the individual in a "Win One" campaign that should never end. Some time be fore He had commissioned the Twelve to go forth as workers. Now He starts Seventy on their way as ambassadors of the Kingdom of God. In that day the area was more thickly peopled than now. Every individual was a prospect and the Master Teacher was eager to have each one invited to become a believ er, a follower, and in turn a "Win One" worker in further extending the Kingdom. It was heartbreaking to see the populace In their spiritual ignorance and without any inner power to help them up to God's way of thinking. Again, the Om niscient tells how the desired end can be accomplished. The same method is the one to be followed to day though the population is much greater than in that generation. The direction is found in the Gold en Text: "The harvest indeed is plenteous, but the laborers are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he send forth laborers into his harvest" Then you can rejoice at the result which was reported at the conclu sion of the itinerary. The Seventy were able, through spiritual power, to win many as believers. Miracles were wrought and these confirmed the value of the teachings. Why have thousands of churches in America not added a convert In a year? MEMBER Cl tORtONliSlSTATEn f ) tPltOR!ALA5SOaTION but the movement has always been forward. There is not a single rea son for the belief that our economic nrocross has stopped or that we are going backward. On the con trary, all the signs point in the oth- diiection. There is no ground for fear. FARM KKL1EF. (Autocaster Service) THERE is talk in Congress of an increase of 50 percent in the tariff on all agricultural products. That would go a long way toward helping the farmers who have something to sell, or who will have something to sell this year. The whole world is in the same state of agricultural overproduction as we are, and ev erybody is trying to dump surplus grain, cotton, potatoes, fruits, wool, sugar and other agricultural com modities on us. If we are to have a tariff wall, by all means make one as high for the farmer as for the manufacturer. In dustry has had more than its share of protection in the past; it is the farmer's turn now. Another encouraging sign of bet ter times ahead for the farmer is the agreement which wheat grow ers in the Texas wheat belt, another in South Dakota, still another group in the Pacific Northwest, are mak ing themselves, to reduce their wheat acreage by 40 per cent It is encouraging because it is the first, so Jar as we can recall, that any considerable body of growers has started intelligently self-help on sound economic principles. The cry of the farmer has been too much that of wanting somebody else to step in and help him.' The only peo ple who can give the farmer any permanent help are the farmers themselves. If the educational cam paign against overproduction initi ated a year and a half ago by the Farm Board results in cutting down agricultural acreage in all the staple crops, the Board will have justiefid its existence and its cost if it accomplishes nothing else. And with acreage reduced and a tariff high enough to keep foreign food stuffs out of the country, the farm er's problem will be solved. OPERA Deems Taylor, American com poser, has had another opera pro duced in New York. That doesn't mean much to most people. Gran,d opera is a form or musical enter tainment which appeals to only a comparatively ' few people, with highly developed musical tastes. One reason is that the theme of grand opera is always tragic. Most of us prefer so-called "light" opera, which is tuneful and amusing. To be accepted by any of the world's great opera-houses, of which there are not more than a dozen, is however, a great triumph for any composer. For only musical com positions which are purely original in -every phrase and bar can pass the rigid tests. Pew composers of popular music are original. Nearly all of them rework old musical themes, most of them originally composed by the composer of grand opera. It is said to cost Otto H. Kahn, patron of .the Metropolitan Opera in New York a quarter of a million a year to make up the company's losses. When Mr. Kahn passes, un less some new "angel" with a taste for music and a bottomless purse comes to the front, grand opera in New York will be a thing of the past. It will continue in Europe, where opera is supported by the taxpayers' money.

I think this ap plies quite as well to the abrupt changing of physicians in the mid dle of a protracted disease. In the very nature of some com plaints, they advance very slowly, taking sometimes months and years to produce complete disability. Dis eases that come slowly are, as a rule, overcome slowly. A disorder that has been on hand two or three years cannot be cleaned up in as many weeks. Particularly is this true in diseases of the heart, lungs, and kidneys. To shift physicians impatiently every two weeks, in the effort to secure quick relief, is to invite disaster; it takes in some cases of very serious disease, sever al months of intimate relation and study on the part of the physician, to tide the patient ashore safely. This cannot be done by shifting tactics on the part of the invalid. It his business to start right and stay, right; his life may depend up- competent artists, pantomime is as effective as words. Charley Chap lin's new picture Is a "silent" film, one of the kind that needs no trans lation to make it intelligible to ev erybody, whatever language they may tpeak. Long ago Chaplin be gan to discard "titles" from his pic tures, relying on the action alone to tell the story. And he has a larger following and has made more mon ey than any other figure In the pic tures. There was a time when it seemed as if the movies would make it nec essary for actors to learn the art of expressing emotions by action, but the talkies have dispelled that hope. It is so much easier to do it with words, but also so much less effec tive. It takes a real artist to be a good pantomlmist, and except for Chaplin and W. C. Fields I think of no first-rate pantomimist playing either on the stage or In pictures.

But he was too busy to "stay put." He- has been dead a long time. If you suspect serious disease, stick to your physicaln don't ne- I gleet his advice he's your best bet. SILVER Forty years ago the dominant po litical issue in the United States was whether we should put silver on an equality with gold as the ba sis of money, by coining silver with out restriction at the ratio of six teen ounces of silver to one ounce of gold. That would have given silver a stable price in the world's markets of $1.25 an ounce, or there about, gold being worth about $20 an ounce. Only once has the price ,of silver reached the ratio of. 16 to 1. That was in 1919-20, when for two years the price ranged between $1.25 and $1.34 an ounce on the London mar ket. Early in February this year silver was sold in London and New York for cents an ounce! The principal reason for this is the es tablishment of the currency of In dia on a gold basis, in 1926, leaving By Albert T. ReiJ in the hands of the Indian govern ment some five hundred million ounces of silver bullion to dispose of, of which only about a fifth has found a market. There is not enough gold today to meet the world's needs as a ba sis of money. There was a long period, after the gold discoveries in the Rand and the Klondikes, when there was more gold than was needed. Probably the present sit uation will revive the movement for bimetallism. But in time we shall measure money values neither by silver nor gold but by the average supply and demand of commodities and labor. DEATH The automobile death toll for 1930 has been compiled, and it is a terri fying record. 32,500 Americans were killed in motor accidents, an average of almost a hundred a day. Nearly a million others were in jured, 962,325, to be exact The to tal number of automobile accidents reported for.the year was 835,250. These figures mean only one thing reckless driving. Not fast driving, necessarily, for one may drive recklessly at 20 miles an hour. Turning a sharp corner at even that speed is reckless driving. Almost half of the deaths occurred when a car struck a pedestrian. Sometimes -it was the pedestrian's fault, of course. A quarteTof those killed were crossing streets in the middle of a block. Less than a quarter of the deaths occurred from collision with another car. The pitiful thing about the fig ures for 1930 is that the number of children between five and ten who were killed in motor accidents was nearly doubled during the year. Two things may help this useless slaughter. Every state should re quire a license after an examina tion, before anyone is permitted to drive a car. And every person, con victed of reckless driving should have his or her license revoked, and in aggravated cases be sent to prison without the option of a fine.
