Facing Facts

With DE. G. BROMLEY OXNAM President DePauw University 1{, : : ; ; ;

In an address recently broadcast to the peole of England, Dr. William Temple, Archbishop of Cork and most probable successor to the Archbishop of Canterbury, discussed the Ethiopian crisis. His argument advocating the use of force, the maintenance of the League Covenant, and provision for the needs of expanding nations, is of major importance. The archbishop, but fifty-four years of age and regarded as the ablest ecclesiastic in England and a profound thinker, said in part: “It is no duty of an ecclesiastic to say in fact what should be done; but it is his function to set out the principles which must be followed in the actual framing of policy.”

League Must Be Effective The League of Nations must be made effective, he argues. “If this involves the use of armed forces, we ought to be prepared to use them. There is nothing unchristian in that. It is only the way of carrying out the Christian duty of using law with its sanctions for the securing of justice. . .If it becomes necessary to uphold law by force, it is of primary importance that there should be force enough available. To resort to force and then be worsted is to wound fatally the cause of justice.” He insists that the Government must make it clear that England proposes to operate the machinery of the League if her neighbors will join her. “But what it our neighbors cannot see their way to join in any effective action? Then we must recognize two things: First, that we are not bound to do by ourselves what we invite the League to call on us and all other nations to do in its name; secondly, that it would be positively wrong to do so . . . For our country to act as universal judge and policeman would not be noble but intolerably arrogant.” “It is the failure to observe this distinction which seems to me the most serious feature )f the present discussion,” he said. “Sunpose the League decides on the application of sanctions; suppose Italy resists by force; then most reluctantly we should be committed to fighting Italy. But that '“Would not mean that Great Britain and France and the rest were as separate and allied nations at war with Italy: it would mean that they were lending their force to uphold a decision made by the community of nations.”

Problem is Difficult “If we insist on this just now we must also remember our own position. Before there was any thought of a League of Nations we had ourselves occupied a great part of the earth and of the supply of raw materials. By the very treaty which set up the League we entered upon control of a great deal more—the mandated territory. If we now say to those who have need of expansion, ‘In the name of love and brotherhood—hands off!’ we shall be convicted of gross hvnne»-i<*v. If we really believe in the community of nations we must be readv, and obviously readv, to start the work of arranging for the nations which lack outlet the means of satisfying their needs. It will be far the greatest and most difficult problem ever attempted bv human statesmanship. The need for sacrifice of all acquisitiveness, the rights of inhabitants in the lauds affected, and a host of other factors, will render that problem Up soluble except to those who approach it in real goodwill. Yet we must be ready to try. The League must stand for equity as well as law.” Dr. Temple is scheduled for an address in Indianapolis during the Christmas holidays. He will speak before the Twelfth Quadrennial Convention of the Student Volunteer Movement. It will be interesting to hear him.

LAWRENCE AND LITERATURE Following a Turkish defeat, Lawrence of Arabia was so joyous that, forgetting himself for the n^nieat, he declared exultingly, “In a year we will be tapping on the gates of Damascus.” A British officer who heard him reported to higher command that Lawrence was a braggart and a visionary. Lav reace writes, “Five months later I was in Damascus, and a “MURDER AT THE MICRO-RHONE’*-—An Unusual Short Story ty Curtis B. Leland—Will Be Found in the American Weekly, the Magazine Distributed With NEXT SUNDAY’S CHICAGO HERALD AND EXAMINER, A New Short Story Every Sunday!

year after that I was ipse facto governor.” It is the Lawrence of Arabia whom we know. It is generally believed that it will be Lawrence the brilliant literary genius whom people will remember a century hence. His new volume entitled “Seven Pillars of Wisdom” has been declared somewhat enthusiastically to be the finest writing of its kind since Homer. That may be extravagant, but lovers of sheer beauty in English style and extraordinary skill in word pictures, coupled with profound observation, will find that the Lawrence whom we thought was dead is in fact alive.

Notations and Comments on tb« Progress of the New Deal and Recovery in Indiana.

Bu DUDLEY A. SMITH— President Roosevelt has written personal letters to the clergy of the nation, irrespective of creed and denomination, asking the min- ! sters of the gospel, who have daily contact with the hearts and circumstances of the people, to advise and counsel him “about conditions in your community” and wherein “our government may better serve our people.” He asks these men of the church particularly to note the application and progress of his “Social Security” program with its pensions for the aged, unemployment insurance and aid for mothers and crippled children.

MR. BUSINESS MAN More money is now being spent in this community than for years and the volume will increase instead of going down because more money is coming into this territory, due to the fact that local industries are going at top speed. The business man who is not getting his share should know he is over-looking something. Perhaps a few advertisements jn in The Post-Democrat would help, for those who are putting it over, are using this space. At least its worth thinking about.

group can give more accurate or unbiased views.” This is in keeping with Mr. Roosevelt’s public utterances when he first entered the White House. He said at that time that the task ahead involved not alone the readjustment or America’s political, social and economic spheres, but also the “preservation of old and time-tried moral and spiritual values.”

And at the very moment that President Roosevelt is laboring to give gainful employment to 3,500,000 idle men and women and is working to make social security a reality, he is assailed in the midst of these most Christian and Democratic endeavors by a political opposition .which slanders his name, 1 bels his character and seeks to destroy all that he has done since March 4, 1933.

By this humble action, President Roosevelt betrays himself to be a great man. He appeals to men out of public office and outside the bitter circle of partisan thought. As he says, “I am turning to representative clergymen for counsel and advice, feel confident that no

At recent coal labor conferences, -John L. Lewis, head of the United - 'Mine Workers, charged the large Mellon-controlled coal corporations \v ith being niggardly in their wage concessions while at the same time generous in contributing to the “gigantic slush fund Republicans are raising to defeat Roosevelt.”

Must Do Your Part to Prevent Fire Fire Prevention Week is to be observed from October 6 to 13. And here is a thought worth considering in the meantime: Friendly fire—fire under control —is one of man's greatest boons. It keeps us warm, cooks our foous, motivates our industries, and serves us in countless other ways. Unfriendly fire-fire out of control—is one of man’s greatest enemies. It destroys property— causing irreparable economic loss. It menaces life. It hampers progress. It threatens community development, and industrial activity and employment. A budding for example, represents something beside money, li represents energy, achievement, labor. If it is a factory building, it represents creative, productive wealth. When fire destroys that building, insurance will give back part of the money it cost, but nothing can give back the energy that was wasted. Nothing can make up for the work lost, the jobs destroyed, the diminished purchasing power the fire caused. The indirect costs of fire—costwhich cannot be put into a balance sheet—are the real measure of ou national fire waste. Those indiiect costs are many times the direct

costs.

Somewhere, as you read this, a hopie is being burned to the ground. A factory building is a smouldering ruin. A man is screaming in pain from a burn that will prove fatal. AH this is the result of someone’s oversight,
