Editorial Correspondence
LOS ANGELES, Cal., Feb. 12. This is the anniversary 0
one of the greatest presidents this country has ever had, and
the most thorough going humanitarian, and the greatest
DEMOCRAT, the world has ever produced, He was the man
who said "you can't fool all the people all the time." And at
this hour, here, in Medford, everywhere throughout the country
and abroad where Americans have gathered this great man is
being honored. No papers are doing him greater honor than
the Hearst papers. We have just reHd in the Los Angeles Ex
aminer, one of the most fulsome and laudatory tributes to Abra
ham Lincoln, we have ever read. Yet we doubt if two men iu
all American history more dissimilar in character, political
belief and spiritual faith could be found, than William Randolph'
Hearst and Abraham Lincoln. Hearst's entire philosophy in life
and his success as the Napoleon of American journalism has
been based upon the assumption that if you have enough circu
lation and enough gall, you CAN fool all the people all the time.
From his castle up there at San Simeon now, where ho lives
like a baron of old, with his 30 miles of ocean front, his hun
dreds of thousands of acres, his private zoo, so many priceless
tapestries, and costly antiques that he has to have three store
houses for the overflow,- he is fooling the people now. He is
not only fooling them, he is fooling governors of great states,
mayors of great cities, distinguished admirals and mcdnl-cnisted
generals they are all like so many puppets dancing as he pulls
the strings. It is really -a comedy. And if Mr. Hearst has a
sense of humor and we believe he has he must be laughing
himself sick, as the merry farce goes on.
At San Francisco we saw the
geles we saw the results of Mr, Hearst's propaganda for PEACE
preparedness in this country. PEACE preparedness I Here
there was a most imposing parade, soldiers, sailors, big guns
and little guns, Legion men, drum corps, low officers, high offi
cers, bands playing, flags flying, and all for whatf
For a bigger navy, a larger army, an overwhelming air fleet
not to prepare, for another war . . . Gracious,'No 1 not. for
war at all, but to insure peace make Uncle Sam so strong and
formidable, so superior in fighting strength, not only to any
other nation but to any combination of nations that there will i
never be an attack against this land of the free and the home
of the brave it will bo peace on earth, good will to man, for
ever 1 .
And how they fall for it. Governor Rolph of this state, the
mayors of Los Angeles and San Francisco, a list of notables
longer than a Mohammedan's prayer, sure it's a GREAT idea
Mr. Hearst has.
The best way to secure world peace is for one country this
country to spend billions in preparation for war, scare the rest
of the world to death they will promptly give up their ideas
of fighting, and Uncle Sam will rule a peaceful planet without
ever firing a gun.
What fools we mortals be I If the world war did nothing
else it certainly exposed the complete fallacy of that sort of
reasoning. The stronger any nation is in a military and naval
sense, tho greater the likelihood not of peace, but of war. More
over the stronger any one nation becomes, the greater the ef
forts of all other competing nations to match that strength. As
a result armament racos arc inevitable, and sooner or Inter war
becomes inevitable.
The alternative of course is not to abandon REASONABLE
preparedness, nor to put our faith entirely in pacts like the
Kellogg pact outlawing war, but to concentrate, as President
Roosevelt has expressed it, in friendly' and neighborly overtures
to the other nations of the world. In other words so change
the international relationships on one hand, Bnd the internal
economio and social relationships on tho other, that the funda
mental causes of war will gradually disappear.
Tho trouble is so few peoplo see this. And because they don't
seo it William Randolph Hearst, a militarist and jingolist of the
first water, advances a program which invites war, which lines
the pockets of tho big armament manufacturers, which diverts
money needed to keep peoplo alive to sending thein and their
children to death, under the banner of preserving world pence.
It is the hypocrisy and insincerity of the thing that burns
this particular pounder of tho typewriter keys to a crisp, But
that is Hearst. The greatest fakir, and the greatest showman
since the late P. T. Bnmum I It. W. R.

find them most tractable of perform

Comment
on the
Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
IfllHY," a puzzled citizen asks,
TT "is gold, since the devalua
tion of the dollar, moving from Eu
rope, notably France, to the United
States?"
The answer la simple: Because, at
existing rates of exchange, It la
PROFITABLE to buy gold In Europe
and sftlp It here and SELL It.
HOW does it work?
It works like this: You buy
francs, say, with dollars that Is,
you buy paper francs with paper
dollars. Then, since France is on the
gold standard, you take your paper
frances to the bank, or to the treas
ury In France, and exchange them
for gold.
Then you take your gold to the
United States and sell It for paper
dollars. At existing rate of exchange,
the profit on such transaction runs
around 4 per cent.
HOW long wllTttgo on?
Why, Just as long as It remains
profitable to buy gold in France, or
elsewhere, and sell it In the United
States. :
Gold, you see Is a commodity, to
be bought and sold Just like other
commodities.
MONEY, also,"toia"certaln limited
extent, is a commodity that
Is bought and sold, the price being
governed by supply and demand.
You read, for example, that the
price of the dollar goes up or down
on the foreign money markets from
day to day, and that the price Isn't
governed'rigldly by the price paid for
gold In this country or by the gold
content of the dollar.
Perhaps you wonder why.
IJ7ELL, it la Ukethls:
f T Suppose you are a Frenchman,
and have bought a shipload of goods
In the United States cotton, or ba
con, or apples. Your money is in
francs. But the seller In the United
States doesn't want francs. He wants
dollars.
So with your francs you go Into
the money markets and BUY DOL
LARS. With these dollars you pay
for the goods you have bought in
the United States.
NOW let's put it the other way
around.
Suppose you are buying goods in
France, to be brought to this coun
try and sold perfume, or wine, or
kid gloves. fou can't pay for these
goods with dollars, for the French
man from whom you Dought doesn't
want dollars. He wants franca.
So you take your dollars and buy
francs, and with these francs you
pay for what you have bought In
France.
These transactions are called for
eign exchange.
THE dollar, in foreign exchange, is
worth w.hat it will BUY In for
eign countries. Those who need dol
lars with which to pay their Ameri
can bills bid tor them according to
their needs, paying what they have
to pay in order to get them.
That is w.hy the value of the gold I
dollar varies from day to day in the
International maney markets,,
SPEAKING of "money, there Is a de
lusion that plenty of money
means prosperity.
That is all It Is a DELUSION.
It Isn't the amount of money that
makes prosperity. It Is the speed
with which money mokes.
LET S see If we can illustrate.
