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. The
man who can invent a new way to
cne 1n music, whether he has a
story to go along with it or not,

WASHINGTON. 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. Hut
. thai la all right wllh us, for If
we aet Independence we will b
; morn srir-ielluul. 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.
