HERE COMES LORD
pnnFDT
LIGHT ON MUSSOLINI.
A DEAD GODDESS? NOT
YET.
THE NAME IS ENOUGH.
ARTHUR BRISBANE J
Lord Robert Cecil and a collec
tion of New York newspaper men
saw each other yesterday. The
line at the head table included,
sitting next to each other, Frank
A. Munsey, who supplied the food; j
Lord Robert Cecil, Senator Bev- ,
eridge of Indiana, William Ran
dolph Hearst and Thomas Lamont ,
of J. Rierpont Morgan & Co.» all i
most becoming and appropriate.
There was also William C. Reick, i
who went reporting with this I
writer nearly 40 years ago, and j
Dayton, publisher of the Evening j
Journal, the ablest publisher with :
one possible and doubtful excep- !
tion, in the United States. There |
was Moore, “the magazine king,”
also Ochs, who owns the New York
Times and is constantly hiring
more warehouses to hold his j
money. And Wiley, who goes \
everywhere that Ochs goes, like j
the little bird that accompanies the ;
rhinoceros and warns It. Otto II. j
Kahn was there. His specialties j
are money and music, with a little
extra pressure on the money. Also
Melville Stone, who joined the
"Why did I do- it club,” when he
.sold the Chicago News to Lawson.
' . ’ ——~ ■ •
The. newspaper men saw and
heard in Lord Robort Cecil an ab
solutely' sincere, earnest, well
meaning man. it was a private
party, so his speech* cannot dc re
ported.
They sa\y a typical Englishman,
the top of his head bald, hair on j
the sides black, a black short coat,
watch chain across his chest—we
don’t do that here any more.
He speaks an English more
easily understood than of the aver
age Englishman.
He does call Europe “yurrup”
softly and sweetly. He pronounces
the word “Ruhr” without pro
nouncing the “R,” the *'U” or “H.”
Xo American could do that. And
“hear, hear,” something that ail
Englishmen say when anybody else
is making a speech; ever;' letter
that you would pronounce in say
ing “here” is silent.
Be polite to Cecil if you meet
him. He is' one of 'many English
men that give their lives and ser
vices, their earnest thought and
all their ambition to their country.
We could use a hundred such men
here. England breeds statesmen
through centuries, and they work 1
not to be governor or president or
something else, but that it may be
said of them: “He did something
to make his natiop greater end
safe.”
Mussolini, dictator of Italy, for
merly a socialist, now powerful
one-man ruler of a big nation,
gives information about himself in
an article written for the fascisti
review “Gerarchia.”
Here aro quotations about lib
erty:
“Men nowadays are tired of lib
erty. '
“Both in Russia and in Italy it
has been demonstrated that it is
possible to govern outside, above
and against all liberal ideas.
N'eithcr communism nor fascism
have anything to do with liberty.”
People want power imposed
from above for their own good is
Mussolini’s idea, and he makes it
plain.
Read more:'
“Liberty is no longer a chaste,
severe maiden for whom genera
tions in the first half of the last
century fought and died. For the
intrepid, restless youths who are
now in the dawn of a new history
other words exercise a greater fas
cination, namely, order, hierarchy
and discipline.
“Fascism is not afraid to de
• dare itself illiberal or anti-liberal.
It has already passed, and if neces
-ary will again pass, without the
slightest hesitation over the body,
more or loss decomposed, of the
Goddess of Liberty.”
. That’s an interesting revelat:on.
Mussolini is right, in one limited
way. After a great war or revolu
tion, men become tired of strain,
tired of thinking for themselves.
Like a dog standing on its hind
legs, they like to get down on the
ground and rest. France was glad
at first to get Napoleon, after the
revolution.
MuRsolini is mistaken, how
ever, in his idea that "the body of
the Goddess of Liberty is more or
less decomposed.’’
That goddess will be erect and
ruling long after Mussolini goes to
join Rienzi, who was the original
M^oUnL
Rienzi also thought liberty a
dead word. He compared himself
with God in importance. But a
humble butcher who still believed
in liberty stuck a sword through
him and that ended Rienzi.
Bernhardt is buried with no
epitaph on her tomb. Just the
name "Sarah Bernhardt.” They
are few that can afford that after
a few centuries have passed. How
many - have we in the United
States?
Washington, Lincoln, Edison?
Who at-e the others? Name them
rabidly.
Behold a new lineup inside the
democratic party. Woodrow Wii
son wants one man appointed sen*
ator from Colorado. His son-in
law. Mr. McAdoo, urgently backs
another man, and now William J.
Bryan comes to McA<Joo’* support,
backing McAdoo'* candidate.
Is Bryan for McAdoo, or I*
Bryan for BryanT Does he, per
haps, think it possible that Wood
row Wilson, whose health is much
better, may consider accepting an
other term?
In any case, McAdoo’s chances
will not be injured. The incident
will help to prova lhat he is not
running a* a eoft-ln-law. ami that
