PERSONAL PREJUDICES Most of the world's best creative work was done out of misery, not out of happi ness; we suspect that Shake speare was unhappy when he wrote "Hamlet," and we knov that Mozart was miserable when he composed his most profound and beautiful music; all art is the child of suffer ing, even the gayest and most ecstatic works. Science can fell us how to do things, but not which things are worth doing and which are not; until we can develop a science of ends, our science of means will only betray us into follow ing unworthy goals. Most of our so-called beliefs are negative, not positive; we can say with vigor and pre cision exactly what we arc j against but when asked to profess our positive beliefs, we are vague, general, con uSCC and self-contradictory. Not one person in a thou sand knows how to livo properly in ihe present, with a decent respect for the past and an intelligent anticipation of the future; most of us are either cap tives of the past or ransom ed lo the future so that our joy in the present is clouded by memory or brushed aside by expecta tion. the past or ransomed to the future so that our )oy in the present is clouded by memory or brushed aside by expectation.

If there were only one. maxim I could write on ev ery blackboard in the na tion's schools, for teen-agers lo ponder, it would be the brief and devastating sen tence by E. W. Howe, whose truth we never recognize until we are too old: "The way out of trouble is never as simple as the way in." Every company must give its responsible executives tite riiihl lo be wrong not wrong most of the time, or company or lo himself. "Don't rock the boat" is a slogan, that will eventually capsize any corporate craft. People whose philosophy of life is always to "look on the bright tide" must view the crucifixion, and Jesus' real anguish, as piece of capricious morbidi ty on God's part. Unptinctualtty may be, a they say, a feminine trait; but it is worth noting that it is rarely ihe homely woman who is late for an engagement. Again Staking Poweron Vote Gaulle to save France from civil war, have grown increas ingly restless under De Gaulle's open contempt both for Parliament and what he considers the petty games of party politics. The result has been a se ries of referendums which permitted De Gaulle to by pass Parliament and take his policies directly to the people. In this way came the new Constitution establishing the French Fifth Republic and others by which the French people approved independ ence for Algeria. On Oct. 28, French voters again will be called upon to ballot in a referendum. But this time with a difference. Even De Gaulle's staunchest supporters concede the out come is by no means certain.

What is strik ing and troubling in the Presi dent's present poilio:i is that he is apparently content to take the far more serious con , sequences of dealing in this manner with fnrrigii affairs also. " ' HE IS deeply vulnerable, for illustration, on Cuba, j where the failure of thr ISrtl invasion haj been followed by some 50,000 privileged poli ticians and place it in the di rect hands of the voters. De Gaulle has made a per sonal isue of it, threatening to quit if the vote goes against him. And for the first time, his combined opposition sees a chance to bring him down. They started it with a vote of censure which brought down the government of the De Gaulle-appointed Premier Georges Pompidou. The motion accused De Gaulle of violating the Con stitution and "opening a breach through which an ad venturer might pass some day to overthrow the republic and suppress its liberties." Speaker after speaker re minded the French people that Louis Napoleon, nephew of Bonaparte, made himself emperor of France only two years after dissolving Parlia- rich before they could vote would have some respect for money, wouldn't you now?

And the taxpayers ain't gonna have anything if that Congress don't quit ap propriating and appropriating and that young feller don't quit signing and signing and the tax collectors don't quit collecting and collecting. "Fish house!" The old man spat the words. "What's got into them Dem ocrats, anyway?" he contin ued. "The Republicans will make a big issue of this, let me tell you, or, anyway, they oughta make a big issue of it although they probably won't. Republicans being very little smarter than Democrats, if any and ain't that a terrible thing to say about both of 'em?" By this time, Tugbutton was beating time to his own words, banging his cane indiscrimi nately on the desk and Ihe,1"" w"cre "esicienr. frD, nr. Rill Zimmi.rm.n'e Kennedy was preparing to frame of Bill Zimmerman's typewriter. "The Republicans have been hollering that the Democrats are soft on communism and it ain't got them anywhere ex cept to make Harry Truman mad," Tugbutton shouted.' "That ain't no issue least wise it don't win no elections, and what's the matter is the Republicans have got the Dem ;ocrats soft on the wrong thing and in the wrong place The S.

Once provoked into high register, such a debate will damaging ly linger long after this little congressional campaign is on ly a dim memory. And when this campaign is over, Kennedy must still be President of the United States. KENNEDY'S national popu larity to dale hne arln larity to date has arisen Precisely from the fact that on the b'K matters he has thus far been not a party president bl1' a president of all the : People.

For his part, De Gaulle made it clear he believed that only through a strong presi dent backed by a direct man date from the people could France continue to enjoy the stability it has had since 1958. There was a great deal to what he said, for under De Gaulle and his new Constitu tion only two premiers have served-Pompidou and Michel Debre. The old Fourth Repub lic had 26 between 1944 and 1958. : '. Worrying De Gaulle sup porters, however, is the knowledge that great national leaders not always are hon ored at the polls once an emergency has passed. Past months have indicated a grow ing restlessness among French voters and opposition leaders now ganging up on De Gaullo are hoping to profit by. it. are soft is in the head, on money. And what they are soft on right at this moment is fish, that's what. Soft on fish. You could make a big campaign issue on that.
