Harvey Defines the Distinction Between Politics and Journalism GEORGE HARVEY, Former Ambassador.

F I WERE asked what constitutes the chief distinction between politics and journalism; I should reply, unhesitatingly, that it is the difference between dependence upon, and independence of. the majority. They are not and cannot be made consonant with each other.

I

From the fundamental dissimilarity of their very nature* and the impossibility of reconciling the practicalistn of the one with the idealism of the other, they must be essentially antagonistic. That in fact they ar* is evident The chief, if not indeed the sole, aim of the politician is to win the favor of the majority. To achieve this purpose be does not scruple, in the language of his craft to “keep his ear to the ground,” and the magnitude of his success is measured by the shrewdness with which he divines popular tendencies sufficiently in advance of their general manifestation to appear to be the leader of a movement to establish newly discovered principles rather than as a skillful conjecturer of evanescent popular whims. I It follows necessarily that the journal animated by any other than a like | motive—that is, the desire to profit from pandering to mobilized selfishness—is so hateful to the aspiring politician that in lus view it must be discredited. , The reasoning of a true public journal is seldom combated; a mere questioning of its motives is deemed and generally is found to be vastly I more efficacious. So it often happens in even these enlightened days that a newspaper undergoing no change in control may today be pronounced ■ patriotic and devoted to the cause of the people, and tomorrow be denounced as a servant of special interests and an enemy of the country, in : precise accord with its defense or criticism of political measures and men. One of our most conspicuous statesmen recently declared that the i sole mission of journalism is to detect and encourage popular tendencies. In truth, such a conception is the basest imaginable, but it is the poli- ; tician’s, and probably always will be. Both Motorist and Pedestrian Have Rights on the Public Highways C. B. AUEL, President National Safety Council. At least 20,000 persons were killed in automobile accidents in the Unital States during 1924, the National Safety council estimates after sev- ’ eral months’ study with the co-operation of the federal government, community safety councils in 60 cities, local police departments and other I agencies. The study indicates that the increase over 1923 was between 1,000 and 2,000, due in great part to the continued increase in the number of registered automobiles. In 1924 there were 17,700,000 automobiles registered in this country or 1 automobile for every 6.2 persons. The traffic problem has become one of the most important now faced by cities and surrounding rural communities, and ways and means for meeting the situation adequately must be developed in the near future. Undoubtedly, the yearly toll of deaths would be much more than 20,000 were it not for the fact that organized safety work involving engineering revision and education has been carried on successfully in 60 of our largest cities for several years. The motorist and the (pedestrian must be educated to an acceptance of the principle that both have rights on the highways. Automobile drivers should be licensed by the state only upon their qualification by test and examination as to ability and fitness, and licenses should be revoked for cause. Uniform traffic regulations shoifld be adopted by the various states. Last of all but not least, all laws, rules and regulations designed to prevent accidents should be strictly enforced. The Old Native Stock of the United States Is Not Dying Out PROF. WARREN E. THOMPSON, of Miami University. The old native stock of the United Stated is not dying and its great-; est increase is in the South. Although the. rate of natural increase in the United States is higher than in most parts of the world, and such as to make it seem doubtful whether such an increase can be maintained for many decades, still there are clear indications that the rate is on the decline in all classes of population. The studies of families of college graduates show in every case that on the average they fail to reproduce themselves. The average number of children born to Vassar alumae has never exceeded 1.5 per alumna. The study dealing with the classes from which college students come i rather than with college graduates shows that this whole class is scarcely ’ reproducing itself and points to the likelihood that college graduates at Wisconsin as elsewhere are not reproducing themselves. Professor Holmes’ study of California students’ families confirms the findings of the Wisconsin study and shows quite clearly that the educa- i tion of the parents as well as their nativity has influence upon the size of the family. i Tne serious question is whether our present urban industrial civilization can be so modified that family life will be given a place in it or j whether it will become like Frankenstein’s .monster and destroy its; creators. Providing Better Educational Opportunities for Children of the Farm FLORENCE M. HALE, Superintendent of Rural School*. When the last census showed that over 2,000,000 people left the ■ farms last year to move to the town or city, economic experts found that > in at least *eight cases out of ten the move came from the desire of the farm people to give their children as good educational opportunities as the city child enjoys. » In most cases these people seem to have good reasons to believe that as yet equal opportunities are not available in the country. So serious an effect on all national prosperity was apparent by the removal of these solid citizens from the country— which is, after all, the Insis for city wellbeing—that not only -chool penpie, but business men began to endeavor to start some movement which should better country conditions and tend to give the country farmer equal educational opportunities for his children. Rural teaching is no longer a blind alley. If a teacher can do a piece of work that stands out the world will make a path to her doorway, even though it be in the midst of a forest AU qf the big national and state programs today give rural education a prom inent place where a few years ago such respect was seldom accorded it w| Rev. F. W. Starring—Much of the world’s pleasure is dearly bought with painful consequences. Much of it merely followed by a sensation of disappointment There is, however, pleasure that is enjoyed with profit It is experienced when we adopt the Apostle Paul’s suggestion in the fifteenth chapter of Romans, and live to please others to their edification. ( " ' — — ' Prof. Ernest R. Groves, University of Boston—Today men and worn- j an are sharply at odds, especially among the young and educated. ■ j Prof. Richard Burton, University of Minnesota—The truth is that in P i politics, life at large, brains are aueptießat
