WHEN A NATION BOWS IN SHAME
It is no great surprise to learn that Colonel Charles
A. Lindbergh and his grief-stricken wife contemplate
accepting a chateau provided for them abroad.
In leaving America to bear their grief in mutual
sympathy they are escaping bitter rewards for whatj
they have contributed to the nation in point of inspira
tion and heroic achievement.
From the moment Colonel Lindbergh set foot upon
American soil after his marvelous leap across the Atlan
tic to France, he has been treated by the metropolitan
press and public something after the manner of a dime
museum freak. No moment of quiet solitude either as
lover or husband, his every privacy invaded by journalis
tic ghouls interested only in feeding the putrescent taste
of the public with thrills instead of respecting the sane-1
tity of the home and all which it means. Even in the last
hours of enciency, when the expectant young mother was
entitled to the chivalry such sacred offices awakens in the
cultured man were made nightmares of spying. The won
der is that instead of being one of America’s perfect ba
bies, the victim of the dastard’s murderous lust, by all;
rights should have been a nervous freak.
Contrasting with other civilized nations, which res-1
pect and honor its distinquished citizens, it seems that,
some latent strain of barbaric coarseness lingers in the
American mob which is fanned and flamed by journalis
tic vultures, interested only in dollars.
One may go further in the analysis of the cause of
the effect now so hideously glaring in American life. A
major share of the blame lies with the metropolitan press.
Once considered the leaders of public thought, molders
of cultured public opinion and a repository of the confi
dence of the people, it has degenerated into an agency
for extolling crime by lurid publicity which transcends
chronicling of news to inject material calculated to exalt
the ego of the red-handed gangster and cater to the taste
of morbid curiosity.
It is to be hoped Colonel and Mrs. Lindbergh will re
turn to the land of their birth to find that it has set its
house in order.
In the meantime one cannot blame them for seeking
to escape further persecution at the hand of a nation
which appears to be rapidly discarding all things making
for homogenv and order.
