the finest offices in the world, such

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

the- favor by making him president

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

HEADING BACKWARD - . .
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

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.

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. New Ycrk Evening Post.

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. Milwaukee Journal.

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

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

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

will perform tho remarkable feat of

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

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.
