VI There is a fifth answer. The Vfl . greatest and. In fact, the only A Y impulse to social progress Is the II I spark of altruism In the Individ- sssassaAaJ usl human being. "And the great est of these is enaruy- nas oeeo ADDISON B religious precept from which no civilised people can depart without losing Its ouL If governments practice charity, then It is solely because it rises from that spark In the hearts of the people. The day when altruism In the In dividual dies from lack of opportunity for personal expression. It will die in the government. At best, charity by government must be formal statistical and mechanistic. Tours Is chanty In Its real sense not obligatory but from the heart. a THERE is a sixth reason. The world Is in the grip of a death struggle between the philosophy of Christ and that of Hegel and Marx. The phil osophy of Christ Is a philosophy of compassion. The outstanding spiritual distinction of our civilization from all others Is compassion. With us. It Is the noblest expression of man. Those who serve receive an untold spiritual benefit The day when we de cide that the government is our brother's keeper, that Is the day the spirit of compassion has been lost. If you fail, you will have lost something that 1 vital to our material, our moral and our sptritusl welfare. BUT a simpler answer than all this lies In the Parable of the Good Samaritan. He did not enter Into governmental or philosophic discussion. It is said when be saw the helpless man "he had compassion on him ... he bound his wounds . and took care of him." That is your mission. PAUSE and reflect a moment. Do you want to support the Klamath Community Chest Instead of lea vine everything to Uncle. Because: (11 You want to preserve our civilization. (2) You want to set standards for government agencies. (3) You want to create and sustain high morals and ethic. (4) You want to build character in youth. (51 You want to practice charity. ) You want to follow the philosophy of Christ Instead of that of Megel and Marx. And, because you want to be a Oood Samaritan. These have not been my words, but they are my thoughts: and they are yours If you agree. Except for the Introduction and this closing sum mary, these remarks yesterday and today are the word-for-word text of a statement by Herbert Hoover, delivered at the opening of the Oreater New York Fund s 12th annual campaign. April 25, 1949. These Day By GEORGE F SOKOLSKT T always moves one to witness a child fighting to restore the reputation of a father. Pierre Laval, once prime minister of Prance, was broken on the heel of history. His daughter, Joaee de Chanibruu. has been digging into the record to restore his good name. Whether thai is possible will only be known when all the documentation of this unnecessary war la In. The diary of Pierre Laval." which his daughter has compiled, adds to the mass of source material which Is rapidly accumulating. One of Its most Interesting episodes is Laval's relations with Oreat Britain In the hope that the war might be staved off. IN 193L Oreat Britain was again In financial dif ficulties and aid from the United SUtes had become Involved In the depression and the pros pect of the 133 election. The British turned to France for aid. Laval says: ". . . After hearing (Sir Ronald Campbell British charges d'affaires). I agreed, without reference to my cabinet, for fear of an Indiscretion which might affect British credit adversely, to make available the following morning from the French treasury on a temporary loan basis the sum of three billions tn gold. The coffers of the Bank of England were bare. Payment would have had to be suspended had It not been for the Immediate and unstinted assistance of France. Sir Ronald Campbell thanked me with sincere emotion and said, taking my hands In his, M. le president, I thank' you. My country will never forget' ." Of course, they did forget. It was not long be fore Oreat Britain was negotiating with Germany without regard to France, although the two countries had an understanding that they would work to gether. The Anglo-German naval pact of 1935 was negotiated without the knowledge of France. Britain also agreed that Germany could violate the military clauses of the Versailles treaty. Prance wished to encircle Germany, to establish and maintain a cordon ssnltaire against Hitler. This would not only have Included Oreat Britain, France and Italy, but also Poland, Rumania, and Czecho tlovakla. Hitler would have been confined to Oerman territory. Laval says: "... I invited Mr. MacDonald. faced as we both were with the danger of a German war becoming more and more Inevitable, to link the chain with Moscow. The Rome agreements and the Franco Soviet pact, which I signed, had eliminated diffi culties which were said to be Insurmountable. But England was not then prepared to adopt the policy of encirclement of Germany which I advocated. This policy alone would have prevented war by isolating Hitler." REFERRING to the Hoare-Laval plan for a com promise between Italy and Ethiopia. Laval wrote: "... I merely regretted the failure of the 'Hoare Laval plan,' a failure which was to throw Italy step by step into the arms of Germany, to deprive France and England of the Indispensable manoeuvr ing ground of the Balkan peninsula and bring down on our unfortunate country nothing but unhappl ness ..." HISTORY is often a record of errors, some well intentioned, some the product of doctrinaire assumptions: some due to downright Ignorance. The hero of a particular moment may prove to have not only feet but a head of clay: often the villain of the moment proves to be sound, truthful, far seeing. The voice of the people Is not too often the voice of God. It is more often the mass response to over-excitement, to false slogans, to the constant repetition of the great lie. Just think of what happens on the radio when a government wishes to lodge the seeds of ideas In our minds. Every 15 minutes or so, sharp, staccato voices, se lected for their vocal lmpressivenes. repeat prac tically the same words until they become welded Into our memory. But none of It may be true. None of It may have any validity. It may be little more than a design to carry through a policy for a particular purpose at a given moment, eventually to be repudiated. That ha cost the world million of lives and tril lion of dollars. The public asks: how can It be false If such great men say so? The answer Is that a the record of the last war i unfolded, much that we were officially told prove to be untrue. Doctor Soys New Drugs Curb Infections By EDWIN P. JORDAN, M. D. . Everyone knows about penicillin and the remarkable effect which It ha on certain disease. Recently two new (ubstance somewhat like penicillin have been developed which have brought another group of disease under frontal attack. These relative of pencillln have be been obtained from living germ commonly found In ordinary sou. These preparations are aureomycin and Chloromycetin; they are related to (till another known a strepto mycin which ha been available for a somewhat longer time. Aureomycin which was the first of the two available In quantity ap pears to be of value in several dis eases caused by germ-like organ Ism known a Rickettsia. Rick ettsiae cause a number of diseases among which are Rocky Mountain spotted fever and Q fever, both of which have been discussed in these columns. Aureomycin also appears to be of value in parrot fever which carries the technical name of psitta cosis. Battles Typhoid Favorable reports have appeared from the use of aureomycin in ty phoid and related Infections, cer tain Infections of the urinary tract, brucellosis or undulant fever, and several other kinds of Infections. Both these substance have not been tried long enough to be abso lutely sure of dosage in all cases, nor to decide which Is better than the other. Enough work has been done, however, to show that both are enormously helpful In the bat tle against many of the infectious diseases which could not previously be successfully conquered by any thing available. It is practically certain that a whole new group of infection will eventually be brought under control by the use of one or both of these preparations, or perhaps others still to be discovered. The Doctor Answer QUESTION: Should a woman who is pregnant travel? My husband want me to go to New York with him and the doctor aays to travel at my own risk. ANSWER: There Is apparently some risk In traveling, especially during the early months of pregnan cy. Some women have no difficulty but others, especially those who have a history of easy miscarriages, can get Into trouble. Each case has to be decided by itself on the basis of the importance of the trip. SIDE GLANCES VW tO LT COM. IM IV Ml UMCf MC I M lib V I ??

By IIKYYITT MAI KKKKIE AP Foreign Affaire Aaaltil &1 larkfiit Hal Boyle Melton Collects Old Cars WESTPORT, Conn. (PI James Melton, radio and concert singer and a commuting resident of this area, spends all of his spare time at his hobby. It is the collection of old time automobiles, which has grown to such an extent that a special museum has been set up north of nearby Norwalk to display them to the public. Often Melton himself can be seen driving about the countryside in one of his revitalized high-wheeled tour ing cars of the vintage around 1912. By HAL BOYLE NEW YORK u" This is becom ing a planned world. In peace, as In war, everything Is now expected to go "according to plan." -ut whether the world of tomor row will be a fair or foul place to live In depends on who does the planning. Too often the designs may be drawn by engineers of statesmen 4 who have lost toucn wnn me common man. Therefore I have gone out and found out what the people want. And. based on what they said. I drew up a blue print of the Ideal dream community of the f u t ure. I hereby offer it free to any poli tician who wants to use if tor his master plan: It Is a place wnere peupie soiu but chimneys can't. There are no loud noises. Any one who honks a motor horn is fined $10,000 and given a year in J'l- Tvi naiaa It has two sidewalks with a wide lane of grass between them. One sidewalk Is for people; the other Is for people taking dogs and cats for a stroll. Bars stay open 24 hour a day. None has singing waiters and none allows shoelace or razor blade ped dlers to badger the serious drink ers. Each bar has two rooms one with television, one without. There are two main sections of the community, separated by a 24-foot-high wall studden with broken glass and having only a single en- j trance neavuy guarara. xuuug mirriMt pmintH rivll on Am side. ' and their In-law on the other. The in-laws have to be back tn their own section by nightfall. Clothes Everyone wears old clothes ex cept on weekly "dress up" night. No female over ten years of age is allowed out In public wearing ballet slippers that make her walk like a duck. All except executive work four hour a day. five day a week. Ex ecutive work as much or as little as they want to as they do now, There are two Sundavs tn each week, one for reading the Sunday newspapers, one lor going to church. Husbands have a night a week out with the boys, wives a night out with the girls, and both must go out together on "dress up" night for an evening on the town. The penalty for being a bachelor: you have to act as baby sitter and take a two-month course In di apering and bottle feeding so moth er will know her Infant Is In trained hands. Taxi Twins There are no subways. Taxis are required to travel In pairs. If some one grabs the cab you're racuig for you climb Into the spare. Every square mile of the city has a park. There are no 'Keep Off The Onus" sign, and every park has a gentle cow which the chil dren can milk In turns. No buildings are more than four stories high, and each has a pri vate elevator for every worker therein. By law every men's room has a couch Just as women's rest rooms do now. Don't men get tired? Executives must use a sep arate men's room so they can't frown on employes stealing a quiet nap after lunch. Dally Checks The present weekly paycheck Is Issued every day at I p m. Well, there's my dream commu nity. It will cost a silo full of money to build and I don't know where to find the silo. But If we're going to have a planned world, let's don't go about It In a halt-way fashion. Let's give the people what they really want. I I i a....................... j Oenrral Dtvlght D.

Heaven Itself couldnt provide greater opportunities than this won derful America! They should have had my experience!" "Tell me about It." I replied.
