BRISBANE THIS WEEK Parolee and Ransom Vincent Astor’s Hotel Mussolini Is So Blunt The Brain Bath l Waley, the Weyerhaeuser kidnaper, caught after he sent his wife, like a

true gangster coward, to change ransom bills for him, has this record: He had been arrested six times, beginning at eighteen, and sentenced to terms in prison that would have kept him In prison for 75 years If parole boards had allowed it. He was repeatedly released until at,

last, thoroughly Artk- r Brisbane in cdß]e and convinced, probably, as he might well be, that American justice is a mere Joke, be went to Tacouia and planned there, the “snatch,” as criminals call It, of the Weyerhaeuser child. ' Highway patrolmen in the western states did admirable work co-operat-ing with the “G-men." The western highway patrolmen are real policemen. Mr. Vincent Astor of New York has bought In and will operate the 8t Begts hotel on Fifth avenue, built originally with Astor money, now repurchased for $5,000,000. An Astor running a hotel is nothing new. You need not be very, very old to remember the gray granite “Astor House.” a block long, opposite the City Hall on- lower Broadway, where they had roast beef such as you find nowhere now. Before prosj>emus Americana learned to be really ‘•aristocratic" with yachts, j race horses and divorces, they thought j owning a hotel and putting your name J on It was almost aristocratic. The Astor House and the Brevoort House In New York, the Palmer House in Chicago, the Coates House in Kansas City, a thousand others prove 1L 1 Mussolini annoys England ; ; he talks so plainly—-no diplomatic beating about the bush. Bluntly he says to old Britannia: "When you were building up your empire, killing off the Boers to grab South Africa, taking India from the pot-bellied rajahs, gathering in everything that was not tied down, you did not care tuppence what the world thought about you. Now it is my turn to gather in territory, maybe Ethiopia, and I care less than half of tuppence what you think about It. So mind your own business, please." Important to the human race Is news of the “brain bath," which, according to physicians gathered at a convention of the .American and Canadian medical associations, literally “washes the twain," freeing It from the potion of diseases such aiilflfantlh —pTfriTFriltt, St Tltus^jllnreT sleeping sickness and jonwrkfnds of spinal meningitis. A solution of salt and water Is Injected Into the vein at the ankle. After it has gone through the circulation and washed out the brain. It la withdrawn with its collected poisons through a needle inserted In the lower end of the spine. Newsdotn, written for newspaper men, says it has questioned all editors and publishers that amount to anything, and finds them “overwhelmingly certain that radical movements are of no serious trend." The discovery will comfort many, but it Is well to be cautious. There Is always a possibility of underestimating what looks like “radicalism of no Importance." China, because she cannot do otherwise, yields In full to Japan’s demands. That Is -the news from Tientsin, and It happens because the 400.000,000 Chinese are not prepared for war. whereas the 00.000,000 Japanese are prepared. “Yielding" probably will not save China from another heavy loss of territory. It la predicted that the young Chinese emperor, Japan’s figurehead In Uancbukuo, will be moved over and back to the old Imperial palace, there to alt again as the Japanese imperial dummy. Ail this It not our business, for It Is happening In Asia. We have plenty to do here. “What's In a name?" Some young Republicans want the old Republican party to change its name from “Republican party" to “Constitutional party." Long ago. when the New York Herald, since dead, reduced Ita price, the late Joseph Pulitzer wrote In a short editorial: “The trouble Is not with your price, It Is with your newspaper. Change that" The trouble with the Republican party Is not with its name. A dangerous strike it allied off In Toledo, workmen wisely deciding to deliberate before going ahead with a strike that might have thrown tens of thousands out of work.

News Review of Current Events the World Over Senate Extends Skeletonized NRA Despite Long’s Extraordinary Filibuster —Grass Roots Meet Offers a Creed for the Republicans. By EDWARD W. PICKARD © W**t*m Newspaper Union.

SENATOR HUEY LONG, the Louisiana Kingfish, made a tremendous effort to keep the senate from adopting the resolution extending the skele-

tonlsed NRA until next April but failed. Advocating an amendment offered by Senator Gore, which would have required senate confirmation of all executive officials drawing more than $4,000 a year, thus disrupting the patronage machine, Huey started on a filibuster. For nearly 10 hours.

Senator Long

with occasional help from Senators Schall and McCarren, he kept the up per house In session, pouring forth a continuous stream of discourse that ranged from the necessity of preserving the Constitution down to recipes for fried oysters and pot-likker. He attacked the President and the administration generally, called the NRA “the national racketeers’ association," told stories about his uncle, read from the Bible and Victor Hugo, stalked about the chamber waving his arms and croaking as his voice weakened, and now and then took a bite of cheese and a sup of cold coffee. All in all, Huey put on a show that kept not only the senators but a big crowd of visitors up all night. He was continually heckled by his angry fellow solons but ; always bad a smashing retort. I At last the senate broke down the j filibuster, rejected the Gore amendment and passed°tt)e extension resolution by a vote of 41 to 13. One change, to tighten op the antitrust laws, suggested by Borah, was made, so the resolution was sent back to the house for concurrence. In its final form it continues the recovery administration without codes but with authority for voluntary agreements among business men dealing only with collective bargaining, minimum wages, maximum hours, abolition of child labor and prohibition of trade practices already outlawed by statute. The house had previously adopted the resolution by a vote of 201 to 121, only a few Democrats standing with the Republicans against it Immediately after the bouse had acted, it was announced at the White House that Donald Richberg would retire as. chairman of the practically dead NRA on June 16, and that President Roosevelt had accepted his resignation “with great reluctance,” and with assurances of his “affectionate regard." PLANS for spending the $4,000,000.000 work relief fund are coming to the fore rapidly and numerously. Representative Mitchell Democrat, of Tennessee, has introduced a bIU requiring the President to use $1,000,000,000 to help the durable goods industries. By its terms factories supplying machinery and materials would be reimbursed for losses directly attributable to hiring new men. Mr. Mitchell thinks his plan would aid in the production of $80,000,000,000 worth of d arable goods needed by private industry. The War department filed a request for $17.071 JtSS to finance the construction of 30 army bases in Alabama. Arizona, Arkansas, California and Kansas. The Labor department asked for $400,000 for research designed to aid the United States employment service in selecting and placing workers on relief jobs and Id private industry. The department said it would use this money to carry on studies In Chicago, Baltimore, Newark and 11 other cities not yet selected. Taxes totaling $473,000,000 would go out of existence before July 31 if not extended, so a resolution continuing them two years was being hurried through the house in accord with the wish of the President Among them are the 3-cent postage and the 1-cent agallon federal gasoline charge. A second retolutioij was being prepared to plug loopholes Id existing tax laws and to adjust present rates found to be unconscionable or unproductive. THE American Federation of Labor more than any other group except the old brain trust bemoans the death of NRA,'and its attorneys are busy drafting a bill designed to take its place In a measure. This measure proposes to put under federal license all concerns engaged in Interstate commerce or handling goods destined for such commerce. Those companies would be exempted from the operations of the antitrust laws but would be required to agree to boors of labor and working conditions determined by a federal commission. SENATOR WILLIAM E. BORAH may not be a receptive candidate for the Presidential nomination next year, bgt anyhow his friends In Idaho have grabbed his hat and thrown it into the ring. They are organising “Rorab-for-President" clubs all over the state. Ralph Brashears of Boise, one of the leaders, says Mr. Borah is the man to “emancipate our people from the vise-like grip of a vast bureaucratic form of government which la destroying Individual Initiative and regiment! eg the American people.” MAX BAER lost the heavyweight championship of the world, being defeated by James J. Braddock at Long Island City In a.15-round battle. There were no knock downs and neither man was badly punished, but dded that Braddock was the wSner on points. Baer's chances were Injured by a number of unintentional fouls. •■• f;' '. ' - *

THOUSANDS of Republicans from ten states of the Middle West gathered in Springfield, 111., for the “grass roots" conference and. In the shadow

of the tomb of Abraham Lincoln, who saved the Union, solemnly determined to save the “indestructible states" from what they consider an assault on their constitutional rights. The gathering was considered so Important that it attracted political observers from all over the country. Most of the delegates were

Ip ■•* Frank 0. Lowden

young men eager for the battle, but with them were many white-haired leaders of former frays whose enthusiasm and patriotism have survived the years. After a pilgrimage to the New Salem State park where the scenes of Lincoln’s youth have been reconstructed, the delegates assembled in the fair grounds Coliseum and were welcomed by George W. Bunn of Springfield, general chairman of the local committee. Harrison E. Spangler of Cedar Rapids, lowa, was Installed as temporary chairman and made a speech In which President Roosevelt was pilloried for all manner of political and governmental sins, from killing six million pigs and breaking campaign pledges to violating the Constitution attempting to set up a dictatorship. Mr. Spangler then introduced the orator of the day. Frank O. Lowden, former governor of Illinois and former aspirant for the Republican Presidential nomination. Mr. Lowden. breaking a political silence of seven years, vigorously denounced President Roosevelt’s proposal to change the Constitution to fit the New Deal and argued at length maintenance of the bill of rights unimpaired. Here are a few of his trenchant sentences: “The essentials of our form of government are being challenged In high places.” * “No crisis so grave as the present has confronted the people since the Civil war." “If an amendment can be used to nullify a decision of the Supreme court upon a fundamental matter In one case, why can it not be employed In another?" “Any attempt to rob America of its liberties would revive the spirit of *76.” "There Is no room on American soil for the dictatorship of either the Fascist or the proletariat type of government” “The preservation of the Constitution; this is the supreme Issue of the hour." IN THE “platform" adopted by the L grass roots conference these governmental policies were advocated: 1. The immediate adoption of a policy of economy and thrift in government with due allowance for essentia! relief expenditures as opposed to the present spending policy of waste and extravagance. * - 2. The prompt attainment of a balanced budget, not by the misleading method of double bookkeeping, but by the honest method of bringing the expenses of the government within the limits of Its Income. 3. A sound currency based on gold and definitely stabilized by congress so that individual enterprise may have confidence In the future value of the dollar, in terms of which every man’s plans for his present or future must necessarily be made. 4. The immediate withdrawal of j government from competition with pri-'j vate industry. 5. The maintenance of the vitality and free growth of American industry through the preservation of the competitive system protected against monopoly by the vigorous enforcement of anti-trust laws, so that small businesses may be preserved and the door a of equal opportunity kept open to all 0. The rigid enforcement of all laara, civil and criminal to prevent and punish dishonest or unfair practices in business, industry, and finance. 7. National recognition of the needs of agriculture. Agriculture is a fundamental Industry of the United State* The farmer Is, of right, entitled to a fair and proportionate part of the national income and to receive a parity price for the products of his farm In domestic markets. & Work for the workers. With men out of work, as now, the capital structure of the nation is not only being impaired but undermined. 9. The breaking down of arbitrary restrictions that throttle world commerce, such as quotas and exchange restrictions. 10, Continued protection to farm and home ownership, and continued provision. In co-operation with state and local governments, for those that are in need until private enterprise absorbs the present army of the unemployed. Senator Robinson, majority leader of the senate, speaking before the Arkansas Pharmaceutical association, said of this: “The only constructive suggestion made in addition to those which are embraced la the Roosevelt administration policies is the often repeated demand for the balancing of the budget The budget cannot be immediately balanced unless the various forms of relief now being carried on be abandoned. This cannot be done just now without danger to millions of our people who hare yet been unable to obtain employment"

YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—The Missionary Purpose of the Church. God is, in his essential being, merciful and compassionate. All his promises to and actions toward man have been with redemptive ends. 1. Israel a Missionary Nation. Following the aposrasy of the whole race, God called Abraham to-become the head of a race through whom all the nations of the earth were to be blessed (Gen. 12:1-3). The first gospel promise, that of Genesis 3:15, was to become an actuality through the missionary activities of the Jewish people. L The nations of the earth Invited to look to God (Isa. 55:22). Israel was called to be the peculiar witness to the nations of Jehovah, the one God Deut 0:4). 2. Christ given as a light to the nations (Is. 49:6). Christ Is the way, the truth, and the life (John 14:6). Christ is the light of the world (John 8:12), 3. Jonah, a Jew, goes as a missionary to a Gentile city (Jonah 3:1-10). Jonah Is prophetic of the nation and God's purpose for the Jews. While the chosen nation has been disobedient to God as Jonah was, yet aftei severe chastisement they shall fultiß the divine purpose. 11. 4 The Church a Missionary Organization. The very genius of the Church Is propagation through devout missionary effort. L /The apostolic commission (Matt 2S:lp, 20). a., The authority of Jesus (v. 18). •vGodjgave him all authority In heaven and ; earth, b. The commission of the apostles (vv. 19, 20). (l) Ir was to teach, that is, make disciples of all nations (v. 19). The? wer* to make known to the world that Christ died to save sinners. ($1 Baptize those who believed. Thiß baptism was to be in the name of (he Father, Son and Holy Ghost, Indicating that the believer has been brought into definite relationship to each member of the Holy Trinity. (B) To teach the disciples obedience (v. 20). Profession is not enough. Oberieuce must Issue. c. Tbsq att-Mrffitieaat promise (v. 20). Theire would'constantly be the blessing and fellowship of! the allpowerful Savior and Lord. 2. The missionary program (Acts 1:6-8). The Church is under solemn obligation to witness to all the world of the gracious salvation which has, been provided in Christ 3. The first foreign missionaries (Acts 13:12). The occasion for this enterprise was a meeting of certain prophets and teachers at Antioch. While these ministers were engaged in praying, the Lord laid. heavily upon their hearts the evangelization of the w<£rld. This marks the beginning of foreign missions as the deliberately planned enterprise of the Christian Church. 4. Preaching the gospel in Europe (Acts 16:6-10). Paul’s inclination was to tarry in Asia Minor preaching the Word, but he was carried along by the Spirit. The Holy Spirit Is just as active in closing doors as in opening them. The time had come for the gospel to begin its conquest of another continent Paul being hemmed in on all sides, was given the vision of a man of Macedonia pleading for help. 5. Preaching Christ before Agrlppa (Acts 26:12-20). Paul, having been brought before the king, took ad- ; vantage of the opportunity to witness to him of the Savior. Observe, a. His manner of life (r. 12). He showed tlat be had been in strictest accord with the most rigid sect of the Jews. b. His supernatural conversion (vv. 13-15). Christ had appeared to him on the way to Damascus and revealed himself to him. c. Jesus Christ commissioned him far s work (vv. 16-18). He was seat to the Gentiles to open their blind eyes, to turn them from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God. d. His consecration (vv. 19, 20). He rendered immediate obedience to his commission. He showed that the opposition which be now experienced was due to his vigorous prosecution of his work. To Gain Eternal Ufa Came one running, and kneeled to him, and asked him. Good Master, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life? Then Jesus said unto kirn. Go thy way, sell whatsoever thou bast and give to the poor, and thou shall have treasure in heaven: and come, take ap the croaa, and follow bm And he was sad at that saying, and went away grieved: for be bad great possessions. —Mark 10:17-22.

National Topics Interpreted by William Bruckart tSiiflnaßg Stations! Press BuUdlng

Washington.—lt is never easy or simple to attempt a forecast of the reactions of a nation

as large as ours. There are so many cross - currents, so

Issue Drawn for 1936

many local influences and factors at work that the popular reaction sometimes, usually in fact, is slow in crystallzlug. Thus, It appears safe to say at this writing that the administration's future course on NRA and other New Deal policies concerning which there is constitutional doubt necessarily must provide a basis for the 1936 campaign. Yet certainly It can surely be said that the Issue is now drawn and that the battle next year will be between radicals and conservatives; between those who favor constitutional government and those who think our nation has gone beyond the considerations laid down by the founding fathers, and between those who regard American traditions and practices as worth defending and an opposition constituted wholly of those who desire to remake our modes of living. In these days of swiftly changing conditions In Washington, one can observe certain outcroppings In the numerous controversies and the wild confusion, and these point definitely in one direction. They Indicate the breakup, the disintegration, of the old political parties. It is too early to predict whether our two-party system will continue even under the names of Democratic and Republican. Certainly If those two names continue they will shield under their banners eventually an entirely different party leadership and party personnel. Proof of this contention lies in the numerous statements, suggestions and trial balloons that have floated about —all serving as feelers in the direction of a coalition among opposition to the New DeaL It Is to be noted that among those who have put out feelers aboyt coalition have been some very well known names, both among Democrats and Republicans. These moves probably will not develop into Important activities but they constitute straws showing which way the wind blows. * All of the above Is byway of saying that Mr. Roosevelt as the head and forefront of the New Deal Is at the parting of the ways. Soon, he must choose whether he will align himseif definitely and completely with the radical element as typified by the Tugwells. the Rlchbergs, the Wheelers and La Follettes or whether he will turn to the philosophies of the old-llne-Jeffer-sonian Democrats, most of whom come from what used to be the Solid South insofar as Democratic voters were concerned. He must make this choice because it Is no longer possible for him to ride two horses, successful as he was In the early days of his administration in keeping the two wings of his party together. When he has made that choice, at that same time begins the development of a new political party alignment In the United States. These conclusions are the conclusions of the most astute politicians and observers In Washington. a • a The question may be asked: What has brought about these nevr condl-

tlons so suddenly? The answer may not be as apparent

Defections increase

as It seems. Offj band, one would say that the sudden j halt of the New Deal program that j was accomplished through the NR A j decision by the Supreme court of the United States had actually amounted to a major operation. This Is only parI tlally true. The Supreme court decision while blocking further expansion of the New Deal in the direction In which it was tending simply provided a focal point around which the j maelstrom centers. Jn other words, through all the months since the New | Deal came into power defections have | been increasing. The opposition, growing in strength, at last has been given | an anchor. The cumulative character | of the opposition and the dissension j and dissatisfaction has made it possi- '■ ble for a single incident such as the Supreme court decision to provide what politicians call an issue. If the Supreme court ruling had not j been sufficient to accomplish this purj pose, Mr. Roosevelt personally proj Tided the necessary additional momen- ; tom. When he spoke in his now famous 1 press conference about the court decision having the effect of pushing American social life back to “horse and buggy days” he set up at one and the same time a circumstance that • molded his own supporters in one group and the opposition concretely in another. So avidly did the opposition selxe upon Mr. Roosevelt’s statement that many newspapers of Influence In the ! country construed it as a challenge to the Supreme court Obviously the President occupying a co-equal status with the Supreme court in our form of government had no Intention of issuing a challenge to the Supreme court in the ordinary sense of the word." What be Intended was to explain to the country that the time had come for the nation to consider its future course; the question be propounded in effect was whether the limitations, the and the minima, laid down In the Constitution were sufficiently flexible to cover life as we now live it. From sober-thinking individuals, I gather that this is the point which must be developed fully in advance of the November elections of 1996. Consequently, some observers believe the campaign next year ought to be on a higher plane than any in recent history. They point to the fact that determination of the question Just outlined above carries with it the collateral determination of whether the United States shall be one vast empire with state tines virtually obliterated. Likewise, determination of

the question referred to will bring an answer to a further question, namely, whether the American people desire that their government shall control individual businesses or whether those businesses and the practices of the citizenry shall be permitted to continue as was the desire of the colonists when they fought off the armies of King George. • a * But there will be some sixteen mouths of time that must elapse be-

fore the American pee pie can express their opinion and their wishes at the

Problems to Solve

polls. In that Interim, pressing problems resulting from the New Deal program must be solved. 1 At the moment, what to do with NRA as well as how to do It stands foremost Behind it lies troublesome questions centering in the farm policies of the Agricultural Adjustment administration. Permeating the very structure of the New Deal is the broader question of whether it is desirable to, continue so many o. the alphabetical agencies as permanent units of the government since each of them was created In response to a plan necessitated by desires for economic recovery. NRA will be continued In a skeleton form. Its powers and Its functions will be very limited. Some vitriolic opponents of NRA are declaring that its skeleton organization is being maintained solely as a face-saving proposition. They argue that Mr. Roosevelt cculd not admit complete defeat of this outstanding plank in his recovery platform. The truth seems to be that Mr. Roosevelt, while unwilling to admit defeat in this direction, is waiting until he can determine what the wishes of the country are and how far the majority of the population will go with him in rebuilding the structure on lines within the limitations prescribed by the Supreme court. Thus far. certainly he has had considerable evidence of benefits accruing from the NRA experiment. No other view can be taken of announcements by many industrial leaders to the effect that they intend to continue hours of labor and wage levels to which they had subscribed under the codes of fair prac-tice-all of which were thrown out the window by the Supreme court as illegal. To the extent that important industrial lines are continuing to observe the code conditions on a voluntary basis it Is believed Mr. Roosevelt can take credit for having moved general business to a plane against which even the social theorists can offer little complaint The President has termed those who have been guilty of unfair and unjust treatment of labor and the consuming public “chiselers.” There is chiseling going on now. Probably, there will be more of it If It becomes too widespread. It seems reasonably certain that there will be ■ a strong reaction among thinking people. This reaction will strengthen whatever moves the President makes to revise the constitutional limitations about which he has complained. In connection with the characterization of chiselers that has fieen so abundantly flaunted about, much discussion is heard In Washington indicating there are two sides to that story. It Is a matter of common knowledge that the codes of fair practice enabled certain lines of commerce and Industry to gain extraordinary) profits. Those lines adhered rigidly to the codes because of the returns they received. It seems, therefore, that they are not entitled to as much credit as the members of other lines of trade who obeyed the codes when such obedience meant actual losses Id a business way. The question is asked therefore, can it be expected that those who suffered under the codes will continue to observe those code provisions which were slowly bursurely forcing them to the verge of bankruptcy. It seems to me, therefore, that before a business firm or an Individual is labeled as a chlseler, one ought to look into'the history of the case and see what the background of that firm or Individual has been. • • • There was an incident of historic Importance In the Capitol building the

other day. The Supreme court of the United States met as nsual in its chambers

Historic Incident

under the dome of the Capitol on June 3. As far as outward appearances go It was simply another session In which the nlse dignified and learned justices met to publicly render the conclusions of law they had reached. But It was more than that. It was the last time the court was to convene In that chamber, and today it is dim in the sallow light of shaded windows for the first time since 1860. When the court convenes next October after its usual summer recess, the justices will climb marble steps into a gigantic new ten-mlllion-dollar structure—the permanent home of the court for the future. It is a building ornate in its simplicity. The court chambers and the private offices of the justices represent architectural masterpieces. Equipment gt the most modern type has beep installed. Convenience Is everywhere. Yet one of the older members of the court whom it has been my privilege to know remarked with just a touch of pathos in him voice that he believed be would prefer his old office and the old bench and bar where he had served so long. The chamber that is now deserted was used In the earliest part of its history as the meeting place of the United States senate. It was there that the voices of Calhoun and Webster were heard as they rang in the debates that constitute valued parts of our history. • Western Nswspnpsr Colon.
