And later I questioned him. Austria had been eager to join What One Man Thinks -By DAVID GIBSON What would life be without metaphor? A lawyer's opinion of a judge is the decision in the last case tried before him. Observation, Reading and ivfcmory. NOBODY seems to know just what form of government Russia is now under, but from all accounts it is more tyrannical, with the masses worse off, than under Czar and Grand Duke rule. It proves Tolstoi's statement of many years ago: "Now the rich rule the world; soon the poor will rule it, and we will all be much worse off!" The reason this is true is that the rich and poor are equal in social-economic illiteracy.

Both, while drunk with power, encounter the same Law of Natural Consequence. They undertake to rule, one over the other, by tyranny and force, and any action under force results in destructive reaction. Emerson said: "Anything done by force must be done over again!" I just rode through one of these huge government slum with Germany. It was ready in 1918, but France would not permit it. Austria had starved since then.

If a man made 55 a week in wages he was fortunate. Next door, in Germany, since the advent of Hitler, there were Drive carefully tomorrow so you'll be around Monday to see spring come in. We dunno about Japanese generals being so smart; some of those armies in China seem to be getting lost. Hitler and Mussolini are sure to get into an argument sooner or later as to which is Napoleon, and the only way to compromise that will be to let one of 'em be Napoleon and the other Caesar. no unemployed.

Men would have to be obtained from Italy to help with the harvest. There was security in German, provision for health, for old age, for education. Was it any wonder the Austrians cheered for Hitler? He was a god of good fortune coming to bestow his economic blessing on the hungry Austrians. Freedom gone? Of course. But Austria has had no freedom.

The Socialist w'ho resembled the Democrats in the United States were killed off by the Dollfus re clearance projects on the west side of Cleveland and now fully occupied.

Pots of artificial flowers and china animals of one kind and another inside on the sills of nearly every exposed window the only natural items I saw was a milk bottle and a child's sled on one of the porches. No Response. BY NOW it seems fairly certain that among the majority of European nations, Secretary Hull's exposition this week on international affairs isn't going to provoke a lot of laudatory comment.

Great Britain nods a supporting affirmative, but goes right back to the job of watching the rest of Europe to see that they don't get too powerful. France adds a hurried murmur of approval, and turns back toward the German frontier, with an occasional glimpse backward to see what's happening in Spain. In Germany, Russia, Italy and war-torn Spain there's no official comment. They're not democracies, and what's said in democracies doesn't interest them. Not only that, but they think the people who are doing the official thinking, at any rate that any theory that comes out of a democracy is wrong.

That's because they think democracy is wrong. Just as we think their forms of government are wrong. Nevertheless, it wouldn't hurt those undemocratic governments of Europe to sit down and think over what Mr. Hull said but they won't. Even the window drapes are alike provided by some pro fessional rather than any individuality expressed by one their hearts bleed for Mr.

No freedom of course. But work, and money for food. And Hitler would spend money in Austria. You would see! Millions for roads and buildings! Austria no longer would be a poor land. Yes, one could exchange freedom for food.

By WESTBROOK PECKER SAN FRANCISCO The time approaches when the state of California will have to throw Tom Mooney out of prison, even at the expense of a full pardon, an apology and perhaps inu lcju ui muuuc, i uui. anv nnrnnso Thorp nr-P also )( neres nhsn lite unim cash indemnity. Mooney has been a martyr for twenty-one proved, within the city limits of Cleveland held by land speculators taxes unpaid for 12 years in many cases.

It would seem with all this vacant acreage that individual homes with gardens might be provided and with safe playgrounds for children. Slums, blighted areas and congested living quarters generally in all cities are the result of bad tax laws that totally reward land speculators and fine the average man with a cruel in the physical sense as it lias been made to appear by those who have made a minor industry of the campaign to get him out. Not for years has there been any actual question of freeing Mooney in the sense of liberating him from prison. He could have walkca out on parole long ago but has been holding out for a pardon, the full years, but he is still in good health, and if he were turned loose while sound of wind and limb his death outside San Quentin would have no nuisance power. If he should die in prison, I munh ahnut Mr however, not Billings, and he has been some withstanding the family who "commits an improvement in the way of a home rights of citizenship and the privi- with a yard around jt tenderest care, he would become a sacrifice to Vienna Is Gone.

AS A MERE racial and political matter, there was no reason why Germany and Austria should not be joined. They have the same language and culture and are mostly of the same race. At the end of the World war they wanted to unite, but were prevented by the" peace conference. It might have been, strictly speaking, nobody else's business if Austria had been absorbed by Germany now on her own volition, by an honest vote of her people. But joining Nazi Germany was not the same as joining the republican Germany of 1920, and it seems clear that theran.

That was foolish. Some day, that may prove the end of him." But, today, the youth are win; capitalism and a martyrdom. He is correct in that, These reat government slum clearance projects are an to be sure, but his martyrdom is attempt to circumvent congestion with more congestion no worse than that of Billings and about as artificial, as unnatural as most present-day statute lower-case Lenin mere incivility oy comparison i jaws that undertake to allow the poor to eat some cake so with some thousands of severities that the rich may still have it. with the communists of the earth. There has been much speculation as to tt'hnlhpr him and the old who faced want.

IT'S CATCHING. A Methodist minister, returned from Germany, said Hitlerism is a very catching disease. Stay six what piqued about this neglect, and with fair reason. After the trial Billings argued that he could not have been bombing at the hour of the disaster because he was conscientiously employed in the noble work of dousing acid on automobiles in the furtherance of a current strike. He even produced the automobiles with the acid scars.

HE'S NO SHOWMAN But Billings is no communist and his showmanship is negligible, so the cause has forgotten him a neglect which must cast doubt on the sincerity of those who say practiced on political heretics in Moscow, the spiritual homo of the campaign to liberate Tom Mooney. Both should be forced to leave prison at once, for, as a member of the California legislature remarked at Mooney 's reception the other day, their guilt or innocence has ceased to be a matter of proof and has become one of personal conviction. Health Advice Veterans' pensions of one war are an inducement in raising an army for the next. In any event, and upon any pretext, it is never hard to raise an army; for military life, active or inactive, is a relief from home hum-drum, routine, uninteresting existence that comes to most of us under personal economic pressure. Even in the Napoleonic wars, soldiers had better food, clothing and boots than in time of peace.

Under the economic system of this civilization, the-very vast majority has not enjoyed the prosperity that is its natural right, save in times of war and brief periods of intensive speculative booms. But as to the specific example of how it is easy to raise an army Last week in Cincinnati I fell in with an old fellow 81 years of age whom I used to know as a grocery keeper in my home town. He told me that as a very young man he had enlisted in the regular army and served six years in the southwest during a threatened Indian uprising never saw any active service never even heard a shot fired save in target practice simply did guard duty along the frontier. That for the last 20 years he has been drawing $50 per month pension; that in the last few months this had been increased to $72 per month; that at two different periods he had suffered confining illnesses and had received the verv liiot i i months in Germany and you become a Nazi. But a German woman, out of Germany 20 years now, does not believe I be German people will remain Nazi.

"Hitler will trip, there will be an awakening, the Germans will turn to democracy." What will "trip" Hitler? England? Perhaps. More likely, deflation. Germany is living on inflationary spending. England's greatest weapon would be patience. England always wins when deflation comes to other countries.

But England's peril at the moment lies in her own inflationary spending for armaments. The world may not face a war so much as a general collapse. Then people may turn to communism. Fascism probably is at its peak. Democracy is hard put.

Democracy's saving grace, however, lies in its viableness, its flexibility. That usually wins in the end. Treat Habit Spasms Early. By DR. ROYAL COPELAND most of the Austrians did not really want to join.

Many of them feared the Hitler rule and many of them feared racial persecution. And what they feared has come upon them. "March Supplants Viennese Waltz," said a newspaper headline on a dispatch from Vienna last Monday. "Sunday In Austria Brings Panic to Jews." To anyone who remembers the old Vienna, that pretty well tells the story. Vienna, the gay, happy, free, tolerant home of music and science and art, a playground and meeting place for the cultured men and women of all the world, whose spirit endured even after the Versailles conference had stripped away the body of Austria, leaving little more than the head and heart Vienna is gone.

The city is now a camp for trampling troops, a billboard on which to plaster swastikas, a stepping stone for new conquest. Instead of Strauss waltzes there is the roaring "llorst Wessel." "Sunday In Austria," said the dispatch, "brought panic for Jews, hopelessness for Socialists and resignation for Catholics. Beating of Jews and plundering of Jewish shops increased. Catholics went to mass with heavy hearts. Newspaper offices were occupied by Nazis.

Masses milled through the streets shouting "Sieg heil!" The free nations cannot hail that victory. ing early childhood. Neglect leads to permanence. Can Be Overcome. Bear in mind that if a child develops a nervous "tic," or an aimless or useless movement of a muscle, it can be overcome by patient training.

These movements Mooney free and Pegler sound of wind, as he undoubtedly is, would be more troublesome than Mooney in prison. That seems tc be a toss-up. In prison he is a world figure for communist exploitation. He is vain and fond of publicity, and as a free man would surely go on the road as a symbol. He might offer himself as a candidate for president.

But after a time he might talk himself out and fall into disagreements with his comrades, who have shown that they are not above jealousy, even as the contemptible bourgeoisie. He might become a nuisance to them and be shot for treason. It is a point that has been considered hopefully against the fact that if he should die behind capitalistic bars his martyrdom would be permanent. CO-DEFENDANT FORGOTTEN There are some curious phases of the world-wide agitation for Mr. Mooney which have never been pointed out.

For one thing, Mr. Mooney had a co-defendant in the celebrated Preparedness day bombing case of 191G which killed ten innocent bystanders and wounded forty. The co-defendant was Warren K. Billings, also a young and bumptious labor slugger, who already had been convicted of transporting dynamite for persuasive purposes and who thus became a second offender or two-time loser. But in the long campaign to liberate Mooney.

Billings has fallen intu the obscurity of Paul Re-xere's horse. Nobody seems to are capable of being controlled. It is important to distinguish these habit spasms from the spasm that accompanies certain constitutional diseases. For example, a cnild with M. Vitus dance, or WORDS OF THE WISE Everything has two handles, by one of which it oVight to be carried and by the other not.

Epictetus. SOME CHILDREN are the unfortunate victims of twitchings and other nervous spasms. These so-called "habit spasms," or "tics" as the doctor knows them, are usually temporary in their nature. If they persist they may indicate serious damage to the nervous system of the youngsters. Unfortunately, few mothers realize the importance of the condition or take advice as to its removal.

They neglect it. regarding it merely as a sign of "nervousness," It is wise to find out exactly what is wrong and to begin treatment as early as possible. Then other and more serious complications of the disorder will be escaped. As a rule, these habit tics are observed in children between the ages of 6 and 12. Occasionally, they are encountered in adults.

Adults who suffer from this form of nervousness usually show a persistent twitching or spasm of the muscles of the face, especially of the nose, lips or forehead. Sometimes the sufferer uncon- Pride grows greater in prosperity, nor is it easy to bear good fur-tune with undisturbed mind. Ovid. chorea, may have any number of muscle spasms. These closely resemble habit tics, but they are uncontrollable and do not disappear until there is recovery from the responsible ailment.

A child afflicted with a nervous or habit tic should have a complete medical examination. All deformities and constitutional weaknesses must be discovered and corrected. Attention must be given to the diet and the child assured of an abundance of rest and relaxation. You owe little less for what you are not, than for what you are, to that discriminating mercy to which you owe your exemption from miseries. Bovle.

This six-year regular army service was a most profitable investment to this man. I am in no way criticising the liberality of our American pension policy, but I am saying that under our economic system, men are given more consideration and material reward after the destructive pursuits of war, than in constructive life and effort in peace. Henry Ryecrof said "For the work of a man's mind there is but one test, and one alone the judgment of generations yet unborn!" Johann Sebastian Bach, the father of modern music, lived from 1685 to 1750, and only six of his compositions were published during his whole life time. Today, to a generation unborn in the time of his activity, he is the most popular composer in all the great musical centers of the world an all-Bach program by any recognized musical organization will attract a capacity audience.

Eighty-seven years after his death, or about 100 years ago. Peters, music-publisher, Leipzig, made the first attempt to bring out the complete works of Bach. In 1851, Breitkopf Haertel. also of Leipzig, started their collection it now comprises 46 volumes. Bach, in his time, was known as an organ virtuoso even Dlayed before kings; his compositions, however, were not unknown, at least among musicians of his day.

He had many pupils who made copies from the master's original manuscripts, and these were in turn re-copied, to wide dissemination. And these copies, by the way, were the only means by which many of his compositions have been preserved their seiou: sly winks an eye or draws against cxcitjng The cve. More Trees. THE experimental plantings in the proposed shelter belt have been doing well. It is reported that three-year-old trees are now 25 feet high and as thick as fence posts.

Farmers in the plains states now ask for more trees. The result is that tree-planting is to be increased about 65 per cent for Strips totalling -LoOi) will be planted in North Dakota. South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas. Oklahoma and Texas. The shelter belt is only one phase of the revived interest in trees and woods.

Alter a long period of reckles waste and destruction of this natural resource, the conservationists have at last persuaded us to start rebuilding our forests. Highway beautifiers have interested us in setting out trees and shrubs for shade and beauty along our modern roads. Farmers now look upon woods as paying crops, to he harvested and renewed. Cities are putting mole trees into their parks and along their streets. Families are setting out trees in their yard.

It is evident that a large majority of the American people have been convinced at last of what our economists have been telling us unanimously for many years that we cannot buy abroad without selling abroad, and that one of the best ways to restore prosperity and peace to the world is to lower the prohibitive tariff walls erected almost everywhere after the World war. This is a slow process, but under American leadership is making headway abroad. DAILY BIBLE THOUGHT five-volume standard musical dictionary that bears his name. The test of the works of man's mind is still the judgment of fenerations yet unborn as Henry Ryecroft puts it. Time destroys the trivial, the unworthy, and even though it may be popular in the day of its creation.

Time discovers and preserves the worthy it is usually too far in advance of its generation for current appreciation. But the acceptance of the works of man's mind of this generation will not be so belated as in the time of Johann Sebastian Bach, and by reason of modern means of reproduction and dissemination by transportation and communication.
