Mussolini's Ten Years
A Full-Dress Headsman
Why Pay Interest?
A Slap Killed the Baby
Thanks to Mussolini, who knows
how to get things done, Great Britain,
Franc'?, Germany and Italy agree not
to fight each other for ten years, which
means, perhaps, "ten years of peace. In
Europe." In addition to not fighting
ench other, they will try to keep lesser
nations from fighting.
The United States, praise heaven,
la left out of it. We have no idea
of fighting any of those four nations,
or any other, anywhere on the globe.
Why should statesmen. lncludlng*some
of our own, try to drag this coun
try In?
An American correspondent In Ber
lin mentioned that "a double murderer
in Torgau prison was executed by the
medieval method of beheading with ax
and block. The executioner was at
tired In the customary full evening
dress as he swung the huge ax."
Mr. Hitler's censor would not let
the dispatch go, because of the word
"medieval."
What would you call It, If not
"medieval," to make a man put on
"full evening dress," stiff shirt, white
necktie, "swallow-tailed" coat, before
chopping off a criminal's head? If It
Is not "medieval," it is certainly grue
some comic opera. What a "last mo
ment," to see a man In "full dress"
aiming n huge ax at your neck.
The secretary of the treasury asks
the public to subscribe to St .<XX>.<XH>.1>00
worth of government notes, to meet
the cost of a public works program.
IIow will the contractors and work
ers on that program be paid? They
will be paid with money printed and
backed by the United States govern
ment.
Why not print the money and pay It
to them, Instead of borrowing It, and
then paying IntereRt on It?
The money, with the government
name on It, Is exactly as good as the
bond or note with the government
name. Why insist on putting out
bonds or notes to make taxpayers pay
billions In Interest?
If the government borrows $3,000,
000,000, and takes 20 years to pay, the
Interest will amount to $6,000, 000, OpO.
In other words, $3,000,000,000 worth of
work will cost $9,000,000,000. $3,000,
000,000 for the work, and $0,000,000,000
for interest.
Mrs. N. Y. W. of California was
waked by her crying baby. Alex.
Drowsy, she slapped It. It became
quiet, went to sleep again. In the
morning she found It dead, and is ar
rested on a manslaughter charge.
The child had died from a cerebral
hemorrhage, caused by slaps on Its
thin ekull.
Parents, even seml-clvlllzed. should
know enough not to whip any child,
and to strike an Infant Is horrible. A
man will whip his own child, and
would not allow a servant to whip his
young dog or horse, for fear of "break
ing the animal's spirit."
Japan, standing apart, In the East,
with plenty of good fighting men, air
planes and submarines, says exactly
what she thinks, and doesn't think
much of the Ixmdon navy pact.
Japan will not agree to the sug
gestion that explosive bombs from the
air In wartime be abolished. The
mikado feels that as long as western
nations have carriers that can bring
planes across the otean and unload
near Tokyo, Japan must be ready to
meet those carriers.
Baron Edouard de Itothschlld of
Paris Is worried about Socialism, par
ticularly state Socialism, which builds
1 publicly-owned railroads to compete
with Baron Rothschild's great, private
French rallrond, the Ohemln de fer du
Nord, called "the richest railroad In
France."
Somo American Imitations of Baron
Rothschild are also worried about
"state Socialism," and the dreadful
suggestion that the people of the
United States, who built and pnld for
the Muscle Shoals power plant, may
actunlly use It for themselves. Instead
of letting private Indlvldnnls exploit It.
Francesco Angelo, well named, an
Itnllan naval officer, who established
a new flying speed of 420 miles per

record of 440 miles, made In his "Red

cial hut will doubtless be established.
England holds the automobile speed
record, Italy the more Important air
record. This proud nation seems to
bo lagging behind. In other coun
tries government Interests Itself In
nil speed records, knowing that, In
war, speed In the air would be every
thing.

! ROOSEVELT BOOSTS
VET COMPENSATION
Changes Economy Program
to Check Revolt.
Washington. ? President Roosevelt
yielded to congressional pressure
ugulnst drastic veterans economies,
signing an executive order raising
compensation for war disabled veter
ans above the levels of lite original
economy program.
.Under the new regulations no com
pensation for service-connected dis
ability will be reduced by more than
25 per cent. The average reduction
will be 18 per cent.
This regulation applies not only to
veterans of the World and Spanish
wars, but also to veterans who served
In Buch campaigns as Nicaragua.
China, Russia or Haiti.
The executive order was expected to
meet the demands of congressmen who
put through the senate an amendment
to the Independent offices supply bill
limiting to 25 per cent compensation
reductions for war-disabled veterans.
The amendment, It was estimated, re
duced by $170,000,000 the administra
tion's economy program.
The new regulations were made pos
sible by the President's original direc
tion that the tentative regulations be
reviewed carefully And amended speci
fically to prevent extreme cuts In com
pensation for service connected disa
bilities.
Under this regulation, Spanish
American war veterans and some
peace-time veterans will receive pay
ments substantially In excess of those
received prtftr to the passage of the
j ecenomy act.
| The White House estimated that the
order would add between $50,000,000
and $60,000,000 to the $400, 000,000
which It was Intended to spend for
veterans under the economy bill. To
that extent, the action Is a defent for
the President? the first serious oue
he has suffered since Mnrclt 4.

1 SMILES AND TEARS
IN CLOSE KINSHIP
Nature's Method of Relief
From Tension.
Dr. Ilobert Kingman In the Kng
lish Journal, New Health, suggests
that laughter often depends on psy
chic tension, and Is a ready means
of relief from this tension just as
are tears.
This Is the secret of the ready re
sponse to the man who slips on a
banana peel, the slap-stick and the
custurd pie comedy ? tension and
sudden release of tension through
laughter. Tears would do just as
well. But ordinarily as soon as It Is
realized that the person Is not really
hurt, the reaction is laughter and
not tears.
Borne persons weep for Joy and
some laugh hysterically In time of
tragedy. With pome It Is a matter
of Indifference whether they laugh
or cry; they get as much relief from
one as from the other. There are
some who react by both tears and
laughter to any serious situation.
The relaxation produced by one is
as complete as that produced by the
other.
Persons who do not laugh at all
far outnumber those who do. In
general, these are the older races.
The Chinese, Japanese, Hindus and
Mohammedans see very little to
laugh at In life. Even as children
their laughter Is conspicuous mostly
by its absence. A grown-up Orien
tal considers laughter a distinctively
feminine trait and unworthy of a
man. ? From How to Live {Journal,
