R'- - k. 7(r M ISLOO per Year •i tfMpwt eCOee et Koiih WIBcm- Oy—ewwiii i— Matter aider Act e HuRh 4. Itm MONDAY, JAN. 25, 19ST Squaltble Orer Pennito The federal bureau of inVeeCigation, more familuurly known as G-men, is ask ing an iqipropriation of about six and one- half millicm dollar^ for the earning year. This is about one million more than the bureau spent last year. The reiiuest for a million; more dollars ' has caused a great squabble among bud get makers in the nation’s capitol and many are opposed to spending more in t^t particidar agency of the govern ment. It seems that certain congressmen are very economical when it comes to protecting lives and property. In fact the extra million looks awesome. Yet these same congressmen and sen ators raised no objection to the billions used by CWA, ERA, PWA, etc. 'The president received what he believed was necessary for these agencies of the gov ernment with little objection on the part of members of congress. There is a vast difference that the American public will understand and those who object to the extra appropri ation for the FBI surely cannot be so dumb as toi think the people will believe sticking up for economy is their only de sire and objective. Why congress happens to be so stingy in this particular is that politics has no {dace in the FBI and no patronage pies Gan be dished out from the appropriation. G-men last year recovered 35 mil- ^ in stolen property. 'That is the ma terial side. The American people reaped a harvest of 700 per cent from the invest ment for the FBI. But the- material side is the least con sideration. With but one single excep tion, the G-men have rounded up every kidnaper and have literally instilled the fear of the law into would-be snatchers. The kidnaping crime will be a thing of the past if the FBI is given the means for going ahead with their work. Hun dreds of bank robberj’ cases have been solved and offenders punished in the courts. G-men are selected on the basis of training and ability. Polities is not con sidered. Hence the bureau is almost - cwitinually under fire from some govern mental official. Regardless of political af filiation the American citizen who is sin cere in his hope and pi’aj'er that crime may never o^^errun this country is solidly for the FBI and no doubt would grant that extra million in appropriations in order that the bureau might be enlarged. lEach agent in the field has an average of eighteen cases assigned to him and many cases are being neglected because Ithere are not sufficient agents. We are reliably informed that there is BO more efficient organization in the "world than the FBI. Their identifica tion system in Washington is unparallel ed in the world. You can send a set of ■ finger prints there with no other infor mation and in less than a week they will ' you if they have its duplicate in their .files of several millions. Their chemical ^-tebratories are unexcelled and the mem bers of the bureau are described as the k most loyal onployees in the w'orld. They ^ worship their jobs and on one occasion ; It is told that the widow of a man slain in a gun fight with a gangster begged that rfie be given some kind of a job in oi^er that she might in some way carry _ bn tile work in which her husband died, course the members are well paid with - Udd agents getting about $38,000 per - year but their jobs are their religion and ^ey never rest until a given task is com- the peoide this counfcT excuse ^ fg to maintain the department prop- ^ eiiy biBioas axe spent for other i? -^mubSer today, aveM the rid cynic, ^ toe many peoi^e are interested in ^na and not enough in vocations. ^ ... ... How Much li Enoii^? William Green, president ^ the Ameri can Federation of Labor, expresses the opinion that industry can never reach ca pacity production until every man who is willmg to work is empk^ed, and every family has at least $3,600 a year to live on. Granting that those are desirable ob jectives, one wonders whether Mr. Gre«i has not faUen into the common error of confusing the yardstick with the goods, •niirty-six hundred dcdlan a year— roughly $76 a Week—da about three times the .average wage in American business and industry today. But who is going to guarantee' that, if tiie time eVer coines when nobody earns less than that, it will -buy three times as murii of tite necMsi-' ■ tiesr'mRH&^es of liffe? ThV-doHar of todv will not buy as much■ •food,^clothing 'o^ sheltrir as the dol lar of ten or even five years ago did. It is not many .years since $8 a tlay was re garded as high wages, and men lived and brought up families on less than $15 a week. 'the real measure of wages is, or ought to be, what the wage wUl buy, regardless of size in dollars. Values depend upon the amount and cost of the labor which goes into the making and merchandising of commodities. The Best Reward The finest things that life can bring To your or me, my son. Is not a name that’s knoiwi to fame. Or fortune richly won; The best reward the years accord Is neither wealth nor praise— These never can assure a man Of truly happy days. The finest thing that life can bring Is found in friendship true— In giving cheer, from year to year. To toose who care for you; The peace of mind and joy men find In home and friendliness Should always be, to you and me. More precious than success! —Lawrence Hawthorne. Brace Barton FORCES MORE POWERFUL THAN MEN The principal lesson one learns in going a- round the world Is that men do not make na tional policies and that Jthe forces underlying national poUcies are trei^endonsly more j^wer- ful than men. ; I am not fond of the Japanese, but I under stand their problem—the terrific pressure of sixty million people pent up In tiny little Is lands. I do like the Chinese, and 1 have some understanding of them ■ ■ al-so. They are a vast I collection o f families. I Their loyalty) is to the I family, and as for who I rules them the great I mass hardly cares. I In India the Moham medans hate the Hindus, and both hate the Eng lish. How India can ever be anything but a seeth- iii menace is difficult to see. I do not know the Italians, but In look ing at the map I saw no outlet for their over crowded population but to the south. I like the Austrians and Hungarians, both proud people with dismembered territories, economically strangled. I like the Germans, and I wonder how long they can possibly be kept tied down inside their pinching boun daries. Carlyle's old mother, when she laid down her son’s first book. The Life of Schiller, remark ed: “I see that foreign peoples have much the same feelings as ourselves.’’ These are not optimistic thoughts, but mighty plain blunt truth. TRUTH IN CLASSICS FOR LAW MAKERS "In order to spend on one side,” said Goethe, “nature is forced to economize on the other.’’ Taking up this theme, Darwin simplified It in “The Origin of Species, declaring that “If nour ishment flows to one part or organ In excess, it rarely, at least in excess, to another part: thus it is difficult to get a cow to give much milk and fatten ’■eadlly.” Goethe and Darwin were considering Na ture’s law of compensation, which is as an cient as the rocks. Emerson discussed it in a famous essay which every law maker ought to be compelled to read at least once a year. "This law,” he says, “writes the laws of cities and nations. It is in vain to build or plot or combine against it. Things refuse to be mis managed long. Though no checks to a new evil appear, the checks exist and will appear. If the government is cruel, the governor’s life is not safe. If you tax too high, the revenue will yield nothing. If you make the criminal code sanguinary, juries will not convict. If the law is too mild, private vengeance steps in. First or last, you must pay your entire debt. Persons and events^may stand for a time be- taween yon and justice, but it is only a post ponement. You must pay at last yonr Own debt.” The leading mannfactnrers know that the only road to larger profits Is via lower prices. AH business men recognize that ev^ added price burden means fewer sales. Unfortunately there seem to be some law. makers who cling to the notion that they can over-mUk and still have a fat cow. SKW Our pieces ans^ . For this glaAlWeir Yeai^ Bnt we are thankful, Fiffier.
