Occupying what is considered one of the finest offices in the world, such cn office as befitted Hoover in his prime. ,iJ a quiet, determined, some what wizened, elderly man trying frantically to figuro what shall be dene with all this office rocm and all these people. The new occupant of the orante offices built for Hoover is Daniel Cal houn Rcper, from South Carolina, sua, the new secretary of commerce, vLcce passion is economy and who is a shark at figures. Visitors say this rather spare man does not quite seem to fit into the grand scheme of the Ilcovcrian conception. One of these days, according to expectations, Dan Rcper is going to l.all cut a big blue pencil and begin cher king off names. When he g-3ts through the 17 thousand who once served Hoover and Klein and the oth er disciples cf false prosperity will be reduced to at least half that num ber. Hoover took the department of commerce when it was little more than nothing and built it into one cf the greatest of all Washington bureaus. At least it was great in secpo cf activity, magnitude of in tlrcst and volume of work perform ed. That its achievements were great cr cf any really significant or er.dar i:.g value, many will dispute. Ti:t if tho department of com merce v.ai built by Hcovcr it repaid the- favor by making him president of the United States. It was the ve I. i -la upon- which ho rodo to the height'?. lie made it a never ending source cf publicity for the magic name cf Herbert Hoover. "JTcover's Folly," the great office rtrn;ture that house:; the department, v.cc conceived as a fittingMr.onument to tho Hoover name and works. Built of marble, steel and enduring mater ials, it v.-as to Irnmortalizs Hoover, even a3 Washington, JJncoJn and oilier notables tre honored with shafts of granito and memorials of treasured art. Thare Is ccraethir.g almost ghastly about that great structure row, and that ctmcsphcro will be intensified when the hard-headed, hard-hitting Rcpef gets through with his blue pencil. It i3 a reminder, yes, but a reminder of a dream that faded, a career that failed, an ambition that over reached itself. It is not a monu ment to achievement but a specter out of the past; a' big, beautiful, en during specter, erected to the spirit of Mammon in an age that now hap pily 13 past.

TOWARD TEE GHETTO Thirty' years ago the Jewish Ency clopaedia was able to report that "in the whole civilized world , there is now net a single ghetto, in the original meaning of the word." Un less tho Jew-baiting nazi3 are re strained by mora enlightened com patriots, i. Germany .may have - the ignominy of reviving that cruel medi eval institution. Ttie :tull executiru , j J '- v - i of Hitler's measures to deprive Ger man1 Jews cf nearly all means, of leamingva living and to prevent all Intercourse between Jewand Gentile, could lead to no other consummation. In modern speech the word ghetto applies to any community in which Jews congregate, in close quarters. Originally it was a place apart in which a despised race sought refuge from its oppressors, and was kept un der strict and humiliating surveil lance. A - characteristic of the medieval ghetto was the gate beyond which no Jew fared after dusk or cn holy days." Sometimes the Jews were allowed to close the gates from with in to keep cut plundering mobs, but often the authorities locked the gates from without so that no Jews would be able to mingle with the populace. Tho ghetto wa3 the product of Jewish soidlarity, as well as Gen tile aversion.- Within Its wall3 there was generally an elevated type of communal life, the traits of which still survive in the tendency of every Jewish communtiy to caro for its own needy, and to maintain an In tense family life. But at best ghetto life was 'wretched. The restrictions compelled overcrowding, with conse quent injury to the health of the city a3 a whole as we!l as of the ghettos nf Italy, Bohemia, Austria, Hungary, Germany, Poland and Turkey. Some times, as in Vienna in 1670, the Jews were expelled from their ghettos un der pressure from jealous Gentile mercantile rival-, but usually they were invited to return by the gov ernments which missed their taxes. The passion for freedom and equal ity unlearned by the French revolu tion, eounded the deathknell of the ghetto. Some, however, did not lose thoir-gates until after the revolution of ISIS.- The Roman ghetto ' lasted until 1S70. It is striking that the ghetto prin ciple should be revived in the Gsr many of 1933, where Jews number only 1 per cent of -the population, and where the process of assimilation has made' greatest headway; The Jewish birth rate in. Germany is lower than that of tho rest of the population and Jewish marriages with Gentilo3'were numbcrcu3- until Hitler's racial-purity drive began. When one considers the contribu tion of Jew3 to German "music, art, science, learning, jurisprudence, commerce and banking, it seems like shortsighted national folly to drive out so useful a minority. It may yet prove, as Edgar Ansel Mowrer sug gested, that "the Jew can get along better without, the Germans than the Gcrmana without the Jew." Detroit Ncjvc. , - ' '- - TRIBUTE TO THE TEACHER There will be no moratorium on education." A moratorium on educa tion would mean a moratorium on civilization. This Is one of the rea sons why teachers will continue the schools, pay. or no pay. The nation, as It becomes aware of the services and sacrifices of teacher3 and of the great significance cf their courage and farsightedness, will show the ap preciation that it has shown to its EOldiers who sacrificed their lives for their country. In the crisis of the seventies, I was amazed, as a boy, at the sacri fices made by the pioneer teacher of that day. Since then, I have observed that whether in time of famine or in time cf plenty, the teacher has lived not for self, but for the child ren and the community. I have no ticed that the selfish man or woman seldom remains long in the profes sion. . When the terrible days of the world war came upon us, who led in food conservation? Who led in the sale of liberty bonds? Who led in collecting food, clothing, and funds for the Red Cross? Who. kept the schools going, whether funchi were available or not? And what of the teachers of today? They are serving in a worse crisis than ever before. Their responsibility is greater. En vironment is more destructive in its effect on children. The teacher-load is almost doubled. In spite of all this, the teacher is again leading in welfare activities. There may be a delay in pay a month or six months cr the pay may be cut off for the year, yet the work of the school goe3 on! . ., Who in it that removes gloom from the lives of children who ccme from homes filled with sorrow and suffering bocauo of the depression? Who is it that inspires children with courage and ambition? Who teaches them to lock forward to better days? Who is it that is saving civilization in these dark hours? AH honor, therefore, to the teach er of 1933! Your courage and devo tion stand out as the safeguard of cur democracy and the hope of the nation! J. W. Crabtree, secretary National Education Association. . :o: TAKES LEADERSHIP I1T s .' -' WORLD KGVEIXENT ; president Rcrofieyett b,a9 (dramatically-widened the scope of the. pre liminary negotiations with his. invi tations to the heads of the French, German and Italian governments. We need hardly expect Premier Musso lini or Chancellor Hitler to appear in Washington, or even Premier Dal adier, 'out with Prime Minister Mac Donald planning to Gail for America on Appil 15, responsible statesmen from the continental countries will probably be designated by their re spective governments to take part in the proposed parleys. The effect of this move would al most seem to mean the transfer ot the world economic conference to Washington. If the representatives of Great Britain, France, Italy and Germany and other nations also are invited to send delegates can reach an ' understanding with President Roosevelt on the broad lines cf what would later be carried in detail in London, the success of the conference will be assured. On the other hand, failure to reach an accord at Wash ington would assuredly render any further meeting in London entirely futile. The president has thus assumed determined leadership in a world movement to facilitate economic re covery. His program, apparently, is net to meet these foreign represen tatives about a round table, but to treat with them singly. Instead of giving Europe a chance to develop a united front against any possible American proposals for stimulating international trade and stabilizing foreign exchanges, he is prepared to try to win these countries over one by one to a general co-operative pol icy. In this program, we gather, dis armament would have a part and the war debts would fall into place as an integral factor in any economic reforms, but problems of Internation al trade and finance- now holding worldr ccovcry in check would be the fundamental matter under at tack. It is an ambitious and courage ous undertaking. But it has long been evident that aggressive leader ship is the paramount 1 need in deal ing with tho international situation. President 'Roosevelt is the logical statesman to cssumo tho responsibil ity for this determined effort to break through the shackles which the nar row nationalism of the past few years has forged about all international re lations.

OFFERING PROMISE IiTSTEAD OF THREAT A plan for proceeding against the depression enlarges from Washing ton. Thi3 is important. President Roosevelt has been moving very rap idly, has asked tliat a good many things be done.- Most of them were necessary thingathat had to be taken care of before we could go after the depression. But it must have been recognized that; these acts have not been directed against fundamental causes of depression. : The banks had closed and had to be reopened. On their reopening it is viso to make fundamental changes in our banking ' structure. Federal economy had to; come a3 a condition necessary in balancing the budget, creating confidence.' - Beer had to come because it had been promised, because there would be some revenue Jin it and because the temper of the country called for it. So with the '.proposal to repeal the Eighteenth "amendment. And so with farm relief." This measure alone of the list aims a. blow at a cause of depression; also it is an emergency, patchwork thing,- admittedly experi mental, which if it works will prove a glad surprise tor most of us. Lower interest rates and longer terms for mortgages are" an aid in living through the depression, but not cures. '.. All along we' nave Known that be fore we get out of the woods there must bo provision for normal ex change of goods between countries. To that end President Roosevelt now calls the other nations. The United States takc3 the lead with a doctrine, though naturally not with matured plans. The keystone of the doctrine is that this country will be willing to mako concessions in its tariffs in return for concessions by other coun tries. - Thfs is a direct reversal of our pol icy of the last dozen years. That pol icy ha3 been -to-'pile our tariffs as high as we dared and then give the president power to make them higher in "reprisal" for anything done to us. Wc have made a threat but held out no promise?ad the threat was ineffectual inasmuch as we had raised tariffs to sncfrJa point' that raiding th mekigher helO fsw terrors. The results w all'khow. Our trade has dwindled, and American owners have multiplied thoff plants in Can- ada; 'fti GreatfJueltain', ; in. Germany, giving 'eniploynieDt' in other nations at, the expense of . American work men, cutting off tha market for cur manufactures, as the market for our farm products had been cut. Our policy has failed and ve have suffered, and Mr.. Roosevelt is ready to tr.k a differejct-policy. In this he proposes chanaes. recently declared necessary by prof. F. W. Taussig, than whom no one knows more about tariffs. Mr. Roosevelt makes the leader ship Americans He invites to this country for conference tho heads of foreign administrations. Premier MacDonald is coming over, France will have a representative, Germany, Italy and Japan are invited, and oth er nations will be. The important nations will accept, if for nothing more than not to get a black ej'e in American public sentiment. This is a beginning, but the tug of Avar is to come. All the support Mr. Rocseve tlh'as commanded so far will be litttle to what he needs now. All the lobbies now trying to emas culate his cuib on security selling are kindergartens to the lobby that will appear against any and every reduction, however slight, of any tariff schedule. True, tho taric has not worked, hut'tho bidders for tariff! favcr are each persuaded it is good for them. They will fight for their privileges. The only firpe that President Roosevelt will Have something to of fer in the market of the nations lier; in support by the country for a presi dent who, after the policies of a dozen years have plunged U3 deeper in the hole than this nation had ever been before, proposes to change thoHC policies.

COMPARISON HELPS UNDERSTAND HITLER To understand what is going on in Germany today it probably helps to make comparisons. If, back in the dear dead days, the Ku Klux Klan, instead of being stopped, had gone on gaining in influence and member ship until it could take over the gov ernment pnd mako its Imperial wiz ard dictator of the United States, we should have had very much tho sort of government which Germany has today. Ku Kluxlsm, like HUlcr!?m, made its bid for power by capitalizing not decency and good sense of mankind, but its prejudices and fears. Its chief objects of attack were the Catholics and the Jews and It was precisely in tho area:-, where Catholic and Jews were fewest that it vas most arro-' gant and dangerou;.. Moreover, since intelligent men automatically lined up against it, it as forced to rally Jgnoranca to its banner and take in telligence for its enemy. It thus be came the sworn foo cf every force in the community making for enlight enment and it poured out its vials of wrath particularly upon men of prov en culture and attainment, Ilitlcrism has followed exactly the same course. It is safe to attack Jews in Germany because in that country hardly cne man in a hun dred m a Jew. But it so happens that among that smr.il proportion are some of the i-zoil brilliant men in Germany lawyer:!, physicians, scientists, artists, r-ly v.rightJ, novel ists and it is rpparently against these superior men that the main at tack is directed. That is to say, Hit ler, like the Hi: Klux, is -.varring against iuteliigcr.ee, r.rainat culture, against ail that wo n-.can by civil ization. Small wcr.drr that on: hears storei3 that even tho:e poetical Trcupo i:i nominal rartncrhrp with him are beginning tj hesitate. YThen our Ku.

PLANNING FURTHER ROUTINE ECONOMIES The untiring director of the bud get, Mr. Dougla3, Is planning fur ther enonomie3 at Washington. He has made it clear that the adminis tration doe3 not intend to stand on the large reduction it has already made in the outlay for veterans' re lief. It is also seeking means of re trenchment in the routine costs of the government. That there 13 opportunity for sub stantial saving here may be demon strated by comparing expenditures last year with those ten years earlier, Such a comparison does not Ignore the realities cf the situation. For tho purchasing power of the dollar last year was 33 per cent greater than in 1922, and the same amount of gov ernment funds could be ?xpected to stretch further. Yet instead of fall ing, as the purchasing power of the dollar rose, the routine costs cf most federal departments increased great ly during thi3 period. Comparative figures for 1922 and 1932 are shown here In millions of dollars: 1922 1932 144 $ 319 21 53 77 SI 18 52 6 15 459 358 68 203 10 19 158 288 402 467 ,361 $1,855 Acn-iculture ; $ Commerce Interior Justice Lahcr Navy Postoice Stats . N rca.-ury war Total $1, Oiiiy In one case, that of the navy department, did expenditures decline between 1922 and 1932 largely in consequence first of the limitations imposed by the Washington treaty of 1922 and then cf failure, to build up to those set t London eight years later. Expenditures ki one other de partment, that of . the interior, ad vanced only slightly. But elsewhere large increases 'were recorded. In terms of dcllar3, the greatest were in the department of agriculture, which has immensely multiplied its real and imaginary services to the ; farmer; the treasury department, which is charged with a largo part of the expenditures for public works, and the postoffico department, which had a heavy deficit in. 1932 and will kave. cnctlier thi3 year. In terms of percentage cf increase, the postoffice and the.departments of commerce and justice were the largest gainers. . 'The administration has two pow ers' which can be used effectively in curtailing" routine costs. "One 'is au thority already exercised "by the president, to reduce federal salaries The other is a practically free hand in tho rearrangement and consolida tion of bureaus and commissions. If, on tho energetic initiative of ilr Douglas, routine costs can be brought hrck to tho level cf 1022, and if The resultant economy is added to that already achieved by retrenchment in veterans' relier, the administration will perform tho remarkable feat of cutting nearly one billion dollars from last year's budget. New York Times. :o: THE UPSWING HI CEREALS The rapid rise of wheat, corn and rye prices wheat in Chicago pass ing the 60-cents-a-bushel mark, the highest in months is attributed partly to the anticipated passage of tho farm bill, to prospects of In flation, new being urged in congress, and more directly to heavy damage in the winter wheat crop, which, it is predicted, will fall far below last year's yield. Whatever the cause, if tho increase is permanent it should prove a great stroke of fortune for Mr. Roosevelt. : It Is to be assumed that nothing wculd he mere eagerly welcomed by the administration than a rise in commodity prices which would simp lify tho task of boosting farm prod ucts to a higher level which it is preparing to undertake. Should there bo a demonstration that other fac tors are accomplishing tho eama re sult, there are many who wculd in dulge the hope that there might be cessation cf so much government Simulation. And it is to bo said for the farm bill ihnt it'does not require, aa' similar bills Inrctcfore have re cutrad, that Its -provisions-shall be carried out. The measure i3 not a mandatory one, administration of it that-i.(.hr !f.n' Mw.-.w a m.. iwe. tion. A?ide frcn the possible influence of an upward 'swing 'of tho prices of wheat and corn to a more reasonable j level, without actfve governmental support, in curtailment of official pro cedure under the farm bill, the re sults cf the increased purchasing power on the - farm should give a strong impetus to business revival. And though the vagaries of commod-, ity markets In the past two years have . carried their own warning relying too confidently on what may turn out to be more or less a specu lative development In tho grain pits, at lsast the extent of the price swing 13 encouraging.
