ESSAY ON HANDS
"The hands are curious human
Implements. They are probably the
most tractable, educabla and respon
sive members of the human corpora
tion. They are the best exhibits to
demonstrate the hopeful thesis of
human perfectibility. They may be
the hands of a baseball pitcher, a
great surgeon, a painter, pianist,
magician, or of any one of a hun
dred craftsmen.
These same extraordinary tools can
become awkward, embarrassing and
useless appendages. They can even
become malevolent. The feet may
behave badly enough when a person
becomes suddenly self-conscious.
They may find a loose mg, some
body!' toes, or a hsssock that pops
out of nowhere. But nothing the feet
have ever done has matched the
disorder the hands have created when
they unexpectedly attach themselves
aa hunks of foreign matter to the
victim who finds his composure Is
leaving him.
In such circumstances they fill
the unfortunate person's mind with
a fear which completely addlea him.
They have been known to distend
themselves into the proportions of
good -si wd hams. Then they may be
come active and seek to fidget with
the necktie, to probe the back of
the neck trying to loosen a collar
which becomes a tight noose. They
flutter over the chin and poke them
selves Into the eyes. They smooth the
hair, which rises and atlcks straight
up. The person thus stricken can't
do anything to stop their roving at
tacks, or If he does master them
they then revert to their hsmltke
proportions and so grow that the
victim knows everybody within sight
Is watching the awful phenomenon
with a curiosity which presently will
break loose in laughter and com
ments." (Chicago Tribune.)

Political Post Mortem
VfES, it waa a Republican victory, but not a decisive one.
Tuesday's election demonstrated, the tide at long last has
set in against the Roosevelt administration, but just how strong
it is, or how far it will go, remains to be seen.

25 congressional seats to the Republicans. Instead of that
they lost nearly 70, and also a dozen governorships, the latter

It does not mean the death of what the New York Governor
termed Roosevelt's humanitarian policies, nor the swing of
the pendulum to the extreme right, but it DOES mean, (or at
least SHOULD mean), a decided slowing up of the Roosevelt
offensive, a disposition so long

country is at.

Taft Wins, Murphy Doesn V
THE victory of Robert A. Taft in Ohio and the defeat ot
lini'.mnr Murnhv of Michigan, are of interest.
Robert Tal't concentrated his
alliance between federal relief and practical politics, putting
Senator Bulkelev on the defensive from the outset. This very
practical result may even penetrate the Thino hide that seems
to cover Harry Hopkins' epidermis, and convince him that if
the voters ever get a chance to take a swing at this practice,
they will knock such an allium!, or suspicion of it, into the
middle of next week. Mr. Hopkins who isn't dumb, might
ileeido therefore that merely denying tho existence of such an
alliance with no convincing proof, is hardly enough, from the
standpoint of realistic politics.
Secondly as a result of his victory, Mr. Taft two years hence
will bo a favorite son of the state that has always made a
speeinlty of producing Presidents, a favorite son in other
words to be reckoned with.
WE sec one of tho press services, ascribes Governor Murphy's
defeat to his '"sympathy with the sit-down strike."
This is not according to our recollection or belief. It was
not the Governor's sympathy with the sit-downers, but his re
fusal to comply with the orders of the local courts, that aroused
the people of Michigan airninst him.- and properly so.
Wc have a high regard for Governor Murphy's character,
ability and liberality, but when he defied a regular court order,
he pulled a major boner which has brought him the political
punishment he richly deserves.
After all if our Governors, or any other regularly constituted
public officials, are only going to obey our courts, and observe
the law when they find it convenient. or politically expedient

ed to all the best houses once."
When this came floating across
the footlights on opening night
more than one member of the Man

softly and whispered a name Into
his companion's ear. For this novelist
receives many Invitations but they
are seldom repeated. It Is" fortunate
that New York he so many celebrity-chasing
hostesses who enjoy dec
orating their dinner tables with fa

be bankrupt of social engagements.
Let me give you an example of
this voung man's genius for alien
ating the affections of his friends.
There waa a party for some visiting
riders here for the horse show and
the novelist was invited. His hostess.
talented sculptress, was showing
her guesta some of her recent hand
iwork. One of the heads was a ser
ious study of an unserlous comed
ian who Is widely known for his
gargantuan schnorxola. It was Jimmy
Durante In clay. Instead of the beak
that has startled the theatrical
world, there was Jimmy with the
moat aquiline nose you ever. saw.
You ought to be ashamed of your
self," the novelist blurted out.
There was a moment of startled
silence. "What do you me.n?" the
hostess Inquired.
I mean you are guilty of the
crime of caricaturing nature's hand
iwork," declared the boor, "and I
think you are exceedingly presump
tions."
Whereupon the butler was in
structed to fetch the young man's
sombrero, and two minutes later he 1
was on his way back to town, leav- ;

him.

Character Needed
To the editor:
The recent European crista has im
pressed upon our mlnda that It is
imperative for ua to conalder ser
iously and carefully the problems
within our own country, other than
Just the dally problems.
We know that we enjoy privileges
and opportunities In this beloved
democracy, beyond the comprehen
sion of people In many countries,
but we also know that to Insure
this same democracy, we must keep
it a country controlled and governed
by people who are big enough to
give their thought and allegiance to
national welfare and betterment,
rather than party welfare only.
Other nations have reel 1 red long
ago, not without benefit, the neces
sity for organised youth programs.
What better way to lay lasting foun
dations for our nation than a well
defined, concise education of practi
cal government for our youth?
The American Legion has pointed
to a way that might be improved
or sponsored by the government that
has great possibilities and could have
far-reaching benefits, Namely the
Beaver Boy Camps that set up a form
of government and enact it. If we
give our youth the vision and show
them the way. we are building for
national stability.
Labor leaders too, should set aside
personal feelings. It la time they

A national board composed of in
dustrial leaders and labor leaders to
gether with the secretary of labor
could work out equitable solutions
if both sides were thinking of na
tional welfare and the greatest good
to the greatest number lof people.
Also, It Is time that people living
in this country and enjoying her
privileges and protection are willing
to offer her their loyalty and alleg
iance. I am not a radical and I think
we should consider all phases of our
national life carefully, but It la not
asking too much to ask only loyalty
in return for so much. If they are
not willing to be loyal to America,
Is It unfair to ask them to go reside
In a country to which they can offer
loyalty? .
We are growing up here In Amer
ica; our population has Increased to
the extent that we no longer have
room for the citizen who Is not will
ing to "pledge allegiance to the flag
of America,, and to the republio for
which it stands."
We can protect and safeguard our
democracy only by facing the needs
that may become pitfalls, and pre
pare ourselves to meet them.
We should and must maintain ade
quate national defense, pass neces
sary laws to. protect our country from
the traitor within 'our midst, plan
and conduct a comprehensive edu
cational program for adults end

"It's Not $200 A Month
To The Editor:
In this week's Saturday Evening
Post appears two articles, "Machine
Crisis," and "Ware the Old Folks,"
that should be read and re-read by
everyone, specially the Townsend
mlnded folks.
These articles will give you a dif
ferent idea or a new light as to the
why and wherefor of the Townsend
plan, bearing In mind the fact that It
is. In Its present form, possibly a
groplng-ln-the-dark for a solution,
but closer to the solution than any
one might think, at that.
Those who are not thoroughly fa
miliar with the truths of the Town
send plan should also study that as
we find many folks who are woe
fully Ignorant on It, possibly because
the Townsend leadership la so ter
ribly crude in trying to put these
truths over. . . -
When studying the Machine Crisis
article, couple with It the facts that
adequate consumption by the unem
ployed would "eat up" the over-production,
possibly to the point of bal
ancing the two, and thus solve a lot
of the questions. The Townsend
plan's main object is to stimulate
this consumption, or in other words,
to increase the consumption of goods
to the point where production will
have to "shake a leg" in order to
keep up, thus creating "Good Times"
again.
In the "Old Folks" article we have
the facts of "birth control" and
"lengthening of old age" brought out.
This fact was dealt with at the
national Townsend convention last
spring In a personal lecture by War
ren Simpson Thomas who also
brought out the fact, based on this
fact, that the "needs" of the old folks
la entirely dlfefrent from that of the
young, thus making an addidtonal
problem In the fact that the "needs'
of the world will be entirely differ
ent when there are fewer young folks
and more old from what they are to
day; and the Townsend plan would,
in Its caring for the old folks, have
a tendency to forestall this change.
And please bear In mind that the
Townsend plan Is definitely not a
1200 per month proposition.
