Friday, February 211930 Hl The Real Aristocrats rUMAN pride is a peculiar, puzzling thing; and never is it more peculiar and puzzling than when it re- voIvm about the matter of one's ancestry. A current lawsuit in New York illustrates the matter perfectly. A sculptor was engaged to create a statue wnicn me descendants of New Amsterdam's earliest Dutch colonists wanted to rut up in a New York park. ' He retired to his studio and came out, after a time, with a model of a group figure; a group showing a man, a woman and a child, apparently surveying the wild new country in which they had just landed. His patrons promptly rejected this group. And why? Because the sculptor had made peasants of these immi grants of long ago. They wore the clothes of peasants, and on their faces was a sort of dumb wonder, an awed surprise mixed with a dogged determination the expres sion, in short, that an uneducated peasant of the 17th century might be expected to have after crossing the Atlantic ocean and landing in the untamed new world. This displeased the descendants. TKey explained, quite haughtily, that the original Dutch colonists were not peasants at' all, but well-born folk of means and culture. So the sculptor made another model, putting fancy clothes and aristocratic expression on his figures; but his patrons would have none of him. So, now, he is suing to collect his fee. The whole business is hardly worth thinking twice about, except that it illustrates so aptly .that peculiar pride in ancestry which crops out every so often for the edification of humbler folk. , Probably it is very nice to be able- to trace one's lineage back to the scented elegants of a former gener ation. Yet the real aristocrats in the settlement of ' America were not the titled and wealthy Europeans who t came over to build great manor houses and cultivate broad acres with indentured help. The country would have gone forward just about as well if" those people had stayed at home. What really developed the country was the great flood tide of ordinary, uneducated folk who came blindly, desperately hoping that somehow, in this perilous new world, they could find a way to make life a little bit easier, a little bit more pleasant, than in Europe. These were the people who filled the seacoast and moved slowly inland, past the Alleghenies, along the wilderness road to Kentucky, past old Fort Pitt to the, Ohio country. They worked their lives out in stumpy clearings miles from civilization, and they died under the knives of lurking Indians; and they filled the conti nent, and they 'dung to their dream, so that it is with us yet. - ..... Many millions of these humble, untaught folk came to the making of America ; and, if you please, they are the real aristocrats. They dared the most, they suffered the most, they accomplished the most. The modern pride that prefers to trace ancestry back to the colonial blue-bloods is a strange thing.

EDITORIALS FROM OVER THE NATION THK .MOVIE OPERA New York World: Most of ns will feel considerable curiosity about the "grand talkie" which Mary Garden la said to be plan ning, along with Hamilton For rest, a Chicago composer. It there any reason why such a work, conceived along the line ot grand opera but executed on a film, abonld not be successful! One is unable to think of any. The film, indeed, has possibilities not to be found In any grand opera bouse; It la not only cspable ot all the sound which the opera house can produce, bnt also ot a reach and beauty in scenic effeots which are related closely to the epic duality that seams to be a part of most music drama. So that the "grand talkie" certainly ought to be feasible. Furthermore, If It Introduces any new Ideas of the movies. It may raise the level ol Htsndards In genersl.. In particu lar, It might show a new way to blend story with music, which Is una of tho problems that the talk ies are up against at present. In the theater, which easil) dons false face, there Is no prob lem about getting a character to slug, or the orchestra to play a selection. The character simply opens his mouth and sings, and the orchestra simply tunes up and plays. Hut the movies, which are dependent on the brutal realism of the camera, put on false face with the nt most difficulty. A charact er who opens his mouth and sings in the movies shatters Illusion, de stroys sll tbe plsuslbllitles. To enable htm to do so, the device so fsr has been to make him a vaudeville singer rehearsing his act, or a night-club entertainer do ing his aluff, or a papa alnging to hla little boy. That Is the reason for so many stories about life be hind the scenes, about radio enter tainers, about crooks, king boot leggers and hijackers, who seem lo hang about night clubs.

Feb. :l It seldom happens that a man Is put In prison anil then tuakea so much trouble, thst his captors bttve to boot him out, but some thing of the sort seems to be happening to the Klllplnna. Thirty years or so ago our dreamers ot Empire aaw otte"u their vislona realised when Presi dent McKlnley took- over the Phtllplno Islantla far the good of the Filipinos. Today the Filipinos are squawking louder than ever about the dtsadvant' agea ot American rule, and they are Joined by various powerful American Interests which com plain that the Filipinos are de trimental to us 100 per cent Americans.' ' The Filipinos don't mind tholr unpopularity a bit, thinking thut the more unpopular they are the aooner they are likely to be In dependent. Telia How Caue Ad ran pea The attitude and position of the Filipinos waa outlined lit an Interview by Dr. Hllario Camlno Moncailo of Los Angeles, presi dent ot the Filipino Federation ot America. The federation re presents Ftlptnos In the United 8tates, of whom there are about 85.000. Dr. M ones do came here to see Presldont Hoover In tho Interests of Philippine Independence. "There are 3S.000 Filipinos In California," be said In discus sing the recent race-labor riots In that atate. "and about SS per cent of them are engaged In agri culture, living cheaply, Theso people never saw any American laborers In the Islands and they didn't suppose they would bo competing with any when they came here. There are 70.000 more In Hawaii and moat of them hope to get to California event ually. All this has worried the labor organisations In tbe far : west and so for several years we , ham hwtA tha Smertean Faitera. I tlon ot Labor agitating for In dependence, "If we weren't part of the United Slstos we could bo kept outside by Immigration lews. m sure that If Independence were granted nearly all the Fili pinos would go back, for they are strongly patriotic and know they can't be assimilated here. Tbe Filipino legislature would pasa an antl-emlgratlon law be cause we will need men to work our resources. "Then we have the unsolicited support tif Amerlrnn, fu'iun ami 1 la uiil lu 11 HtiKiir Intervals which lire very anxious fur us to b Independent so that we can't sill, . In any mom dnly-Iree suaar.

We will do ; velnp our bruins and live simply i mid get along beautifully, Wo i run live far DO cents a day in the Phlllplnes. 1 "We have the Kit Klui Klnn on 1 our aide because It favors a pure ' ly whllo race of Americans. We are very proud of our race, but we will bo glad If the klnn will help make ua free. "Tho American and Cuban to liacfo Interests want ua to be In dependent fur the some reason which actuatea the angar men. The lohacco Intercuts ar,i stip niaed to be very powerful snd I I hope their Influence is uot ex aggerated. "In addition we have the true American spirit of liberty on our side, but aomeuiiw we never got anywhere on sympathy and Ideal ism. Tliey Want It Now What we all want la Immedi ate Independence. I don't know ot a Filipino anywhere lu the world who doesn't want that. At our Inst convention when some one on the platform would men tion Independence the applause would last for an hour, so the speakers hsd to atop mentioning independence and refer to It by Innuendo." There are two independence bills In Congress now, the King bill and the Vaniletiherg bill. Dr. Moucado favors the King bill be cause It would grant linniedlatn Independence. . The Vandenberg bill would free the Islands gradu ally, raising our tariff wall grad ually against them over a lu-year period.
