Superstition Comes to Life.
By ARTHUR BRISBANE.
V_____
General Mitchell has rendered a
service to his country by his fear
less and truthful statement on con
ditions in the air service—or rath
er, the United States’ lack of air
service and air defense.
Such a soldier as Mitchell, after
risking his life constantly in the
big war, flying year after year in
machines of all kinds, many of
them dangerous, would not be de
terred from duty.
Mr. Weeks, it is to be hoped,
will have too much common sense
and common decency to punish
Mitchell for a course that the whole
nation approved. And if Secretary
Weeks should make a mistake that
would degrade and injure the en
tire administration, you may rely
upon it that the president would
intervene, effectively.
This nation needs to know the
truth, which is that we rank fifth
in air defense among the world’s
nations, and that air defense is the
defense needed for this nation,
above all other nations. It is the
only defense that could protect our
cities from destruction and our
country from humiliation and disas
^^er, in case of war.
Russia, so deeply despised by
our prosperity, secured in one sin
gle order, placed in western Eu
rope, five times as many fighting
airplanes as this country has all
told.
And Japan, tied up by secret
treaty with Russia and China, is
manufacturing 500 war planes
every month, 25 times as many,
each month, as the United States
possesses all told.
President Coolidge, not Mr.
Weeks, or Mr. Wilbur, is the man
interested in this situation, so dis
graceful to the nation’s common
sense, so dangerous to national se
curity. Mr. Coolidge would bear
the entire responsibility if this na
tion should be caught unprepared.
He has the power. At his de
mand, congress will supply the
money necessary. And at his order
Secretary Weeks will applaud in
stead of muzzling any army officer
with brains enough to understand
the importance of air defense.
This country js totally unpre
pared for waf. It is bitterly hated
in Europe, and all but drooling
fools know it. It is hated even
more bitterly in Asia, for there
hatreds are more intense.
To destroy a dozen United States
cities, the biggest in the country,
is a task that could be accomplished
easily. Such destruction would
change this nation's attitude to
ward the world. The job could be
done from Asia, with Russia’s de
^•ighting co-operation. Bolshevism
has an account to settle with us.
Europe need not start the thing,
merely look on, regretful, but in
active, but such a setback as air at- |
ack might inflict on this nation in !
three weeks would put us at the
mercy of Europe’s supplies, of air
craft, and everything else. In real
war here, at home, we could not
rely on our grafting patriots that,
in the last war spent a billion or so
uf public money on machines that
played no part in war, while our
fliers borrowed French and English
machines to fight for western Eu
rope.
• ■ — - . -
A successful attack on the United
States would settle that European
debt question. It would be worth
ten thousand millions of dollars to
the debt-ridden nations over there.
Or, assuming that many of them
will never pay anyhow, it would
clear their books and save their
honor—next in value to cash.
A few million dollars worth of
fighting airplanes, real machnes

country safe. An enemy fleet of
such machines, coming across the
Pacific or the Atlantic, would set
this country back 100 years, close
the stock exchange, knock prices
to nothing, cause not merely a
crushing income tax, but savage
capital confiscation.
Desperatee loss, caused by war
suddenly breaking loose in the sky
above our heads, is the one thing,
the only thing that could cause

Those that' control big capital

push mean economy too far.
All of the above is repectfully
submitted to President Coolidge,
for whom it is written. This na
tion is unprepared now. If it is
taken by surprise in the world’s
first great air war, the results will
be disastrous to the nation and
doubly disastrous to all responsible.
Upon President Coolidge the re
sponsibility rests, with all its
weight. He is head of the army
and navy, he is responsible for the
men employed as secretaries of the
army and navy.
Ignorant creatures - that have
been predicting the end of the
world oflfer a valuable opportunity
to analyze the superstitious human
mind of the dark ages. It is as
though some dinosaur should come
to life and present himself for
study to the Academy of Science
in Paris.
The brute selfishness of super
stition that says “I’ll save myself,
never mind the family,’’ is the su
perstition that made the early Puri
tans believe that heaven would be
made more blissful by the sight of
miserable creatures roasting in
hell.
The same superstition and selfish
ness made the rich man of long
ago leave his fortune to religion,
hoping to purchase personal salva
tion from Divine power.
Today's rich man, outside of the
deeply superstitious class, leaves
his money to colleges, hospitals,
sciences, to help others. The idea
that Divine Providence accepts cash
bribes is dying out.

DYNAMITE IS USED
TO BREAK ICE JAM
Columbus, Feb. 9.—The Union Pa
cific fired its first shot of dynamite
in its annual fight against the ice in
streams along its lines in central Ne
braska Saturday when dynamiting
of iee in the Cedar river was under
taken to protect the railroad bridge
at Fullerton. The Cedar spilled over
its banks and Inundated the tracks,
hut the water had receded from the
high stages by Saturday night.
The Beaver, near St. Edward, and
the Looking Class, near Monroe, were
also threatening trouble with water
from the melting snows flowing over
the ire.
The Loup and Platte rivers at Co
lumbus are being watched riosely,
but the ire has not yet reached the

Confidential Secretary and Stenographer
to IVoiNlrtm Wilson During Ills Fight
Years In the White House.
CHAPTER HI.
Mr. Wilson was not a politician.
His way might have been easier had
he been able or willing.to make some
concession to politics, hut it was con
trary to his nature to lie a conven
tional president, a back slapping,
friend-making, wholly partisan man of
party ties and friendships. His con
ception of- party lines and party uses
strongly marked him out from the
politician
Rarely did he speak of party organi
zation, but almost Invariably of party
principles. Whatever he undertook,
his appeal was always to a cause or a
principle, because he could speak In
no other terms. His influence upon
the events of his administration was
the Influence of the historian who
found himself, Instead of chronicling
events gone by, able to mould the
history of his time to his touch, to
suit his own design.
Mr. Wilson's theory of patronage
kept him In hot water with his party
lieutenants.
"There may he some self-respecting
statesmen in this country when we
get rid of this demoralizing patron
age," he once said. "As long as that
is here it will corrup everything at
Its source."
Pitfalls of Appointments.
He accepted the responsibility of
office keenly aware of the pitfalls in
appointments. In one of his histories
lie had condemned the administration
of Andrew Jackson for having de
haunched and permanently demoral
ized American politics hv introducing
the spoils system; he was himself an
ardent champion of the merit sys
tem and the civil service; and
throughout his two administrations
he was at loggerheads with congress
over his theory of appointment.
He was not unmindful of party
duty or personal necessity; most of
his appointments were partisan, but
few of his major appointments to
office can he classed as politically
partisan, His attitude toward ap
pointments was distinctly personal.
It was not so Important to him
whether a man called himself a
democrat or a republican as that the
man believed as lie did.
Principles meant more to him than
party discipline. He consciously
sought to strengthen party morals by
the time honored means of patron
age, but it was at best a half hearted
attempt. The fact that a man was
a democrat did not neceaarlly recom
mend him; he had to he the kind of
democrat the president was nr he
stood no better chance of appoint
ment than the candidate of opposite
persuasion.
Scrutinized Appointments. <
In the'lirst years of his adminis
tration he personally scrutinized
practically every appointment to
which he gave his sanction and rigid
ly required that the candidate meas
ure up to his own standards, but
the whole thing was too petty a
business for one of his temperament.
There were few appointments that
did not degenerate sooner or iater
into a personal or party squabble, his
whole time and energy seemed to be
engaged In settling disputes between
the senate on the one band and his
party lieutenants on the other; he
saw the vitality of the support upon
which he counted to put through his
program being eaten away by petty
strife; and then came the war to
demand not only the best of his
time, hut also of his thought.
Eagerly he turned most of his
patronage problems over to those of
his advisers who were better able to
Settle them than he ever was—from
a political standpoint. If they were
not always moved by the same high
principle that actuated him in his per
sonal appointments, at least party
harmony was saved and he was free
to give his atlenlion to the more vital
problems growing out of the wa..
PirUcd Aids Personally.
The more personal of his appoint
ntents he naturally never allowed to
leave his hands; the major appoint
ments of his administration, of the
men with whom he would come per
sonally In contact, he always guard
ed as his own special prerogative,
making them for the most part with
out advice or party consideration,
but upon personal knowledge.
There was scarcely a man whom
he personally knew and respected that
h» did not at on" time or another at
tempt to draw into government serv
ice.
Men like folonel House. Clevelan 1
If. Dodge and Dean Fine of Prince
ton could have had any government
office at his disposal; indeed, time and
again he approached them with an
offer of some important post. These
men he knew as men of high prin
ciple, and to them and those like
them he invariable tufned when he
had an Important post to till.
His very first appointment to office
w is an indication of his whole policy
f merit and honesty. In his first
campaign the religious issue had been
unusually prominent, chiefly because
of the religious faith of his secretary.
Mr. Wilson was a Presbyterian: his
secretary was Catholic. Throughout

COURTESY—F.rriniENOV—Rr.RVIOE
iL_
I he campaign, and particularly when
the election of November established
Mr. Wilson as the next president, let
ters arrived at the governor’s office
by tlie thousands protesting against
the appalntment of Mr. Tumulty—
letters which it may he noted in pass
ing his secretary placed at his chiefs
disposal without comment.
When It came time for the pres!
dent elect to name his secretary he se
riously considered the merits of three
individuals for the office—Newton D.
Baker. Dudley Field Malone and Mr.
Tumulty. Newton D. Baker, then, I
believe, mayor of Cleveland, appealed
to him as a man of Ids own Intellec
tual type; Dudley Field Malone’s
claims rested upon friendship and his
already brilliant career; but In Mr.
Tumulty the governor had found a
loyalty and a peculiar capacity for
the position that he could not afford
to lose as president. So little signifi
cance did he attach to the campaign
of protest that he made his first of
ficial act in anticipation of his new
duties—the elevation of Mr. Tumulty
to the post of secretary to the presi
dent — an appointment that time
proved abundantly justified. ' Mr.
Tumulty became a complement to Mr.
Wilson. What Mr. Wilson lacked In
the "common touch" Mr. Tumulty sup
plied, oftentimes bridging the huge
gap between the president and the
public.
Opposed to “Influence.”
As a rule, Mr. Wilson adhered close
ly to the principle of merit in all his
appointments. Notably few appoint
ments of his can Justly he charged to
expediency. Certainly he was over
scrupulous in these matters that
touched him personally. He was dil
igent to the point of injustice in dis
suading anyone claiming relationship
to hint from accepting public office,
In all cases refusing to say so much
as a word in their behalf.
He entertained a deep-seated preju
dice against the use of "influence" In
seeking appointment. Except In a hare,
half-dozen instances, where he reluc
tantly helped a needy friend to sc
cur» a minor clerical position, he de
dined, sometimes with an impulsive
II _~-7.-=
rebuke, to lend the use of hi* name
or influence to aid an applicant to
enter the government service.
So conspicuous was hia feeling on
the subject that it was regarded ns
axiomatic in the executive office that
no self-constituted applicant for of
fice, especially one with an array of
"Influence" behind him. would ever
receive appointment. A flood of tele
grams or letters arriving at the ex
ecutive office, whether spontaneous
or obviously inspired, advocating the
appointment of a man to office, was
actually a certain omen that the can
didate would not receive the appoint
ment. ,
He grew progressively sick of the
whole patronage question, of endorse,
ments and the "so-called courtesy of
the senate," as he termed it, and
looked with suspicion upon all cam
paigns of endorsement.
