Congress is due for the reg
ular wrestle with an Anti-Lynch
ing Bill. There is general intell
ectual assent due to process of
law, but now and then, when the
noose is applied without cere
mony, the verdict is: “Served
him right.” That may be a per
version of the instinct for speedy
justice, but it exists, and is not
without its advocates on Capitol
Hill. There will be no such op
position to Anti-Spy legislation,
which is due for action, and pro
bably to be delayed only by the
perfecting of details. Work on
plans for reorganizing the mach
inery of the government is ex
pected, but many agencies will
<be excepted from the operation
of the law. Efficiency may be pro
moted but it is said that sav
ing in appropriations is out of
the question.
The monopoly investigators
continue their work, but, of
course, have collected no more
than a part of the evidence that
they hope to assemble. Whatev
er the conclusions reached, and
regardless of the remedy sug
gested, it will be hard to get
«round the practical working of
Pope’s remark: “Order is heav
en’s first law, and this confessed,
some are and must be greater
than the rest.” Monopoly carried
too far is bad, but after all it
underlies the rights of those who
do not restrain trade or unlaw
fully fill their own pockets. The
most humble citizen has a mono
poly on the use of his false
teeth, and everyone feels that a
man is entitled to snooze in his
front parlor, to the exclusion of
somebody else who could use it
conveniently as a repair shop.
The visit of Anthony Eden to
the White House recalls the fact
that, saving upon such occasions,
the executive grounds are open
to the public. There is a conven
ient and much-used path thru
them, passing within a few yards
of the dwelling and the offices. A
person can cross the White House
tract with less though than he
would bestow upon taking a
short cut through his neighbor’s
pasture. The European dictators
do not stand for such familiar
ity. Here and there, in the Unit
ed States, something persists to
show that the old time democ
racy is by no means dead.
A Maryland dentist, fearful
lest a patient in the waiting room
be frightened away, hits a grunt
ing man in the chair a lick on
the head. It is e well-settled law
that the right of petition and re
monstrance shall not be denied,
and the $5 fine imposed on the
dentist indicates that the useful
“Ouch” has its rights, along with
more formal protests.
The status quo remains un
changed; so far as selecting a
Democratic presidential candi
date for 1940 is concerned. It ap

NEW LOCATION

pears that Mr. Roosevelt must
run and that he must no.t run,
the only popular outburst up to
date being in favor of Mr. Gar
ner. Against h>m is urged his
three score and ten years. No
one has taken tihe presidential
chair at that age. Close approach
es are afforded by the elder Har
rison, who entered upon his dut
ies at 68, Taylor at 64, and John
Adams and Andrew Jackson at
61. The youth of the list is the
42 year old Theodore Roosevelt.
The thirties are unrepresented.
When the President informed j
the world that his papers would
be turned over to the govern
ment in due time, and provided
means for their preservation, he
earned something better than the
charge of vanity. The years which
now are slipping by constitute a
period of shifting view point and
change. The doings of the present
can be evaluated only by the jud
gement of the future. Tee his
torian of a century hence, writ- j
ing of the decade that is pass-1
ing, will have before him a mass
of original sources from which
it will be easy to determine whe
ther praise or condemnation is in
order. Mr. Roosevelt proposes to
lay the cards fairly and fully on
the table. Even those who look
askance at some of his acts
should at least concede to him a
high degree of fine moral cour 1
age.

LINDBERGH, FORD,
LASHED BY ICKES
WASHINGTON, D. C. — Sec
retary of Interior Harold L. Ickes
said he felt any Amer'can who
accepts a decoration from a dic
tator “automatically forswears
American birthright. How can
any American accept a decora
tion from the hand of a brutal
dictator who with the same hand
is robbing and torturing thou
sands of fellow human beings.
Perhaps Henry Ford and Col.
Charles A. Lindbergh are will
ing to answer.”
Addressing a banquet of the
Cleveland Zionist Society, Ickes
admonished wealthy Jews to ex
ercise extreme caution in the ac
quisition of their wealth and
great scrupulousness in their
social behavior.
A mistake made by a non-Jew
millionaire reflects upon him
alone, Iclees told his audience,
but a false step made by a Jew
ish man of wealth reflects upon
his whole race.
This is harsh and unjust, but
the fact must be faced, Ickes de
clared.
He said a great Jew advised
him that Palestine is capable of
absorbing 50,000 Jews a year for
several years to come.
Education is wonderful but
what amazes us is the ignorance
that persists.
