It we survey the eastern cities and southern as well we find narrow streets that were laid out for the horse and buggy. There is no way. to remedy this. Midwestern cities a» a rule have wider streets with cross streets at right angles rather than the jogged or offset crossing such as we find in Columbus in particular. We have two examples of narrow streets in the south and ope city* with wider streets* For instance in Knoxville and Atlanta the streets are so narrow end traffic so congested it would have been better had, the auto manufacturer left off fender# entirely.

But that will he no different than where a citizen of the state is forced to pay a tax on 100 shares of some industrial stock that has not paid a dividend for one or more years and probably passes in­ to receivership or. bankruptcy. Farm­ ers pay pn land whether they get a profit or not, which they do not get with 60c wheat at threshing time or five cent hogs any month o f the year. Farmer Wallace Bays the cash In­ come for farmers for the first two months this year was a billion, three hundred and seventy-eight million, an increase of 818 million over the same months last year. However the Ag de­ partment makes it plain that it was government gifts to farmers that ac­ counted forthe increase and not mar­ ket prices for -what the' farmer had to sell. FARLEY SNEERED AT PARTY CLEANUP Some weeks «go Chairman Hamilton of the Republican National Committee proposed that both political parties do away with the campaign book. The Democrats four years ago collected more than four million dollars for the campaign on this one issue. The Republicans did not do so well, Mr. Farley says nothing doing as the party will operate as it sees best The Republicans down in Knox county, Tennessee have made a public pledge not to use money, liquor or paid workers *at the polls at the November election. Of course neither party should have to put a stamp of approval on the use of money and liquor for both are in violation of the election laws* state and national, * * . . . . Down in Georgia a Democratic congressman has been in­ dicted for selling post office appointments and to keep the lid from blowing off the Democratic pot, Postmaster General ffameaFarley makes a hurried calP'on business” in the Roose­ velt adopted state. Franklin D. has announced his intention of entering Georgia right from a sick bed following a court injunction against his old partner, Gov. Rivers, who was placed under arrest for violating a court order in the operation of state affairs: Georgia awaits to see what the fruit of the Roosevelt trip Will be. The scalp of a federal judge may be hanging on the line, ~ - * WHAT SWEDEN DID Some observers in this country, and in England have been critical over the role played by Sweden during the invasion of Finland. To them it seems that Sweden should not only have - sent hqr own'troops to defend her neighbor but should have opened the way for the passage of Allied contingents. , She should, according to this argument, have made herself part : of a conflict Which almost certainly would have involved hei with Germany as well as with Russia. - . The reason given by Sweden for her failure to follow this I blood flowed freely Course is*that it would have been futile: Finland would have1“ ~fc* ***■ * been cdmpletely overrun and Sweden herself would have faced the Russian armies, backed by whatever German aid was need ed, with no adequate outside help. . . . So much for Sweden's failure to enroll herself as a com batant in the struggle.. What'she. did*do ought to be written in letters of gold. A dispatch to this newspaper from Stock­ holm estimates, that her aid to Finland, in money and in sup plies, has amounted to the remarkable total of ¥125,000,000 This total Is growing with every day that passes. It is growing with every hour as tlfe Swedish food trucks roll in a steady stream over the Finnish border. It already amounts to $20 a head for every man, woman, and child in Sweden—the equiva­ lent, per. capita, of a gift of more than $2,500,000,000 from the people of thejUnitod States. In the presence of this superb generosity we dowell to take our hats off to the Swedes. “ s— New York Times Atlanta, Gs., has power either by ordinanceorstatetowtoadvertiseand sell at public sale any piece of prop­ erty to the city, where improvement Assessments as taxes have not been paid.

No erops can he raised in the spillway which runs from the river to Lake Fontchartrain. It never has v ter in it only at flood stage. The New Dealers want the goats to eat the grass and keep ,down the brush. To tend the goats the Ag 4e pertinent or the War department want one custodian and one veterinarian to look after the little animals, We have been over parts of the spillway twice and as there are no fences on the ten and twelve' foot banks lust how many custodians will be required to keep the herd ’ from eating the sugar can, com, potatoes and alfalfa that are grown by different farmers along the‘Tins? At least the idea is new, practical or not. We suppose the custodian will hold the goats ohe at a time while the veterinarian does the milking. The acreage of the spillway is 3,500. llABOAJMHOT* Ife m x»ot lATtHPAY m NITBl mm --- _ BflMLm rrwmm- JMprjpm •*** jpupiF jnmmm “TBS GSOflT COMM MOTHF baa b#s» tote* toto* * * ; j f 71>■ * I Local BROWS AT I* s 00 A* M* BA F, M.

GOVERNMENT ONLY SOCIETY'S AtlENT The basis of democracy as expressed in the fundamental law of our gdverhment is equality of opportunity and protec­ tion against injustice, exploitation and insecurity of the person. . Social responsibility then is not wholly a'function of gov­ ernment as much as it is the duty of the church with other co­ ordinating agencies that can cany a worthwhile message under circumstances that future good might.*become permanent, and that aid as rendered would not be regarded, as commercialized charity. The nation faces a time when every worthwhile or­ ganization will be assigned a duty of correcting the false idea that our governfnent is a financial patron saint, and that all classes of citizenship can so list themselves as wards of state and nation for aid at the expense of a younger generation that ‘ must face its own problems in the years that will continue to come. Youth will not be satisfied to wait sixty years for old age to list them as a ward of the state. If so the youth then will become convinced there is nothing to progress and the need of saving for the future. T f relief Is to remain a J Political football it will take the combined efforts of the com ng generations to provide for those past sixty years. Each de cade will find<more and more letting down on the part of those at forty, thus throwing a heavier burden on those in the twenties and thirties* Charity dispensed through the tax collector can never take the place of understanding in the manner*of the Good Samaritan. It is the function first of the church, and then the citizen and neighbor. Relief among the aged, the unfortu­ nate, even on the farm has been the damage to the teaching o f the One who arose from the tomb. Commercialized relief has men broken down the moral fabric of society purposely that _ and women would ho longer think and plan for them- aelvim but rather cause them to throw themselves on the gov­ ernment for sustinance in return for political aid. The fault does not lie wholly .on society. Criticism, and none can be severe enough, should be heaped on the individual leader who would Wreck his fellow men mentally, Weaken them morally, warp their mental facilities for reasoning, that by class hatred and heated passion this unfortunate branch of society would become political wards'of one who in his own estimation is dictator of a nation of some one hundred and thirty million people. Never having tasted the dregs of pauper­ ism and having lived a life of ease from a fortune massed by kb father, this dictator, would wreck society' that he might bask in his Imaginary brilliancy of a modem day Caeflar, * f WMas a ' tkftaH* IMttoVSI »lt vwy m a c n a a w E s The Atlanta Journal says southern colleges will abandon the. time-honor­ ed custom o f, football games on Thanksgiving day. This move comes about says the Journal all because no one will ever know just when the festival occasion will come, due to change o f mind of a president that always wants to rewrite 'the calendar. The south wants no more ‘two Thank* givings' and will not give up the original date. lienee from now on no more double-day festival games says the Journal. Cleveland labor leaders are circulat­ ing petitions seeking signers to do away with’ two legislative houses in the state and, a smaller number to make the laws—to suit the Cities. Leg­ islative districts would be -created where, certain rural counties would be thrown in with big city counties. The idea is to break the hold of the rural or farm, element in the legislature. You peed two houses one to help bal­ ance the other. The liquor and gamb­ ling interests have united also behind the proposed change, ft will be defeat­ ed, by the people eVen though it is placed on the ballot this fall. If It should win farmer* would be feeding the city radicals on relief for years to come. Not feeding them at their door but by tax money levied in var­ ious ways for that purpose.1 < , / .......... *■’ Here to a pension plan that has the Bigelow theory bested by all odds, Charles J. Husband, the father of the "Thirty every Thursday” pension plan to California that/was voted down now' comes forward with 'something new. He would boost the profit on ail state store liquor to the sky because so many pensioners purchase state storeliquor with pension funds. Again Husband says non pensioners should pay something toward pensions if they drink. I t is his idea that, this money could be distributed between those 50 and, 60 years o f age, and to all persons ove 60 whether they need pensions or hot.'/' A wealthy yet prominent Gedarvilfc woman who went to her reWard some years ago"<mee stated that "it did not require any amount o f brains” as how. to advise a person to give away money. The Rev. Bigelow has a new plan for his pension idea and then we think o f the millions and millions that have been given away down in Wash­ ington.
