In the Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
Sign of the times:
A daughter weighing 3Vi kilos
(7V4 pounds) was born the other
day in Buenos Aires (Argentina)
to an Englisn couple named rir
ton. The next day they got a
kidding telegram of congratula
tions from an American friend.
The message read:
"Congratulations safe arrival
three and one-half kilos dyna
mite." The Argentine police, who
hav the pleasant little habit of
reading everybody's correspond
tnce, promptly clapped Kirton
Into jail. Like all totalitarians,
they have no sense of humor,
nd that "dynamite" business
was too much for them. They
envisioned Kirton as taking his
314 kilos of dynamite under his
rm and blowing President
Peron to kingdom come.
BSURD?
Of course it's absurd.
But things like that arc what
happen when too much power is
held in too few hands too long.

THE OTHER day the rcpubli
can big shots came up with
a new slogan for the 1930 con
gressional campaign. This is It:
"Liberty versus Socialism." It
appealed to me as milder tha
dishwater, and apparently it
didn't scare the fair deal boys
much.
Anyway, "Veep" Bark ley
came back at the GOP leaders
with I demand that they tell the
voters specifically what demo
cratic-sponsored laws they want
repealed. He added:
"Let them be honest and say
whether they are for or against
these laws, we're not afraid of
their shibboleths or their pro
mulgations.
"Legislation for extending so
cial security coverage and in
creasing benefits is now before
the senate. I would like to ask
the republican platform-makers
to say whether they call that so-
cialistlc and whether they are
for it or against it."
EVERY TIME the republican
poohbas get to muttering in
their beards about the socialistic
sins of the democrats, the demo
crats ask them that $64 question
as to Just what they would re
peal if given tne cnance. tvery
time, so far, It has folded them
up like a ham-and-egg fighter
when he gets a hard, straight
one on the button.
I think the republicans are
going to have to answer that
question, specifically, sooner or
later cither that or stay out of
power. One of the soundest of
political maxims is that you
can't beat somebody with no-
horiv. It is eauallv true that you
can't beat something with noth
ing.
The voters of this generation
aren't going to be attracted by
vague mutterings in the republi
can beard about "socialism." If
they are to vote the republican
t cket aeain. they must rje oi-
fercd something they can get
their teeth into.
IF I WERE doing It, I'd answer
the question something like
this: i
"First, we're going to BAL
ANCE THE GOVERNMENT'S
BOOKS. We're going to spend
no more (including annual pay
ments on the principal of our
debt) than we can raise by taxa
tion. We think that keeping our
nation solvent is tne Dig issue.
"As for social benefits, they
are f no. In these days of grow-
in technological progress, with
the machine and modern assem
bly line methods providing pro
duction of things in volume ex
ceeding any dream of the past,
It is possible to provide the peo
ple with social benefits that
couldn't be even imagined a gen
eration or so ago. We're all for
such progress toward better liv
ing standards and fewer gnawing
worries about old age.
"WE'RE GOING TO PRO
VIDE ALL OF' THIS SORT OF
THING WE CAN PAY FOR AS
WE GO WHILE AT THE SAME
TIME PAYING OFF THE DEBT
WE HAVE ALREADY IN
CURRED." I THINK a platform something
like that would Interest quite
a lot of people.
