|111 THE BEACH REVIEW I I[ CO-OPERATION SWEDISH CURE The fact that Sweden is leading the entire world in its recovery from the depression, that its indus- trial production last year was above the peak year 1929, is at- tracting world-wide attention to that country. Those people in the United States who think the only economic cure is to ,give the control of all industry, including agriculture, into the hands of politicians and bureau- crats--with power to license and regulate and allot--have been busy claiming that Sweden's happy eco- nomic condition is due to regulated capitalism and long-range planning. We declared recently that there is no such thing in Eweden as regu. lated capitalism or long-range plan- ning, as those terms are under- stood in this country, but that the economic leaven in Sweden was co- operation, supplemented by govern- ment ownership of the railroads and some other public utilities, in- cluding part of the water powers. Now we have corroboration of this in the following paragraph of a letter from E. R. Bowen, general secretary of The Co-operative League, New York City. W'ritiug of his efforts to run this matter down, Mr. Bowen says: "We have followed this matter up further, and now have positive confirmation from the Swedish con- sul that there never has been any attempt in Sweden to 'politically regulate monopolies' as we attempt to do by 'prevention' in the Sher- man anti-trust law and by 'permis- sion' in the NRA law. Tlle only method which Sweden used appar- ently is the 'threat of substitution,' either through the Swedish govern- ment taking over the entire or ma- Jority ownership of utilities, and through consumers' co-operatives." By public ownership of public utilities, exploitation is prevented in that field. In the much larger industrial field, co-operation is the preventive. To the large extent that Swedish co-operators do their own manufacturing and distribut- ing, they put the profits back into their own pockets. And by their competition, they keep capitalistic concerns from piling up inordinate profits. Not regulatory tinkering, there- fore, but carrying on economic functions without private profit, and thus setting the pace for the whole of industry, is what has made Sweden the most prosperous nation in the world today. And what is most significant and impor- tant, this prosperity has been at- tained without the loss of freedom. --From Nebraska Union Farmer. l have recently completed an In. vestigation to ascertain if I am not a relative of the aged John D. Rockefeller sr. The result of my research has been encouraging and I am convinced that I am a distant relative of the oil king, although perhaps I'll have a hard time get. ting him or his administrators to believe me. The trouble is that 1 am such a very distant relative and in fact 1 had to go back several thousand years before 1 was able tc connect our family trees Both me and Mr. Rockefeller had the same forefather & foremother, Their names were Adam & Eve and they lived in the Garden of Eden. $ a" $ This ancestor business is a funny thing. Over in China the people Worship their ancestors, whether they were rich or poor. Here in America we worship them only when they left a million dollars or more, at least a part of it for our personal use. i'm not sure but l like the Chinese way best. And Yet l expect Chinese, being human, find it easier to worship an ances. tot who left a rich estate than one who was as poor as a church mouse and who left nothing but a bunch of debts. • $ • 1 admire the Chinese people's capacity for worship. It is very - great. Not only can they worship thousands of ancestors at one •nd the same time but they have enough worship left so they can wor~hlp a stone image of some sort. An image of Budha, maybe, or an image of a sacred eow. Every spring along •bout this time a con. siderable number of China's people devote several days to a festival during which time they go in for worshipping the sacred cow in a big way. The native~ make pil. grimages for great distances, if necessary so that they ma.- worship at the shrine of a stone image of the sacred cow. They bring gifts of' sweet cakes and little candies that they deposit around the im- age of the cow. If a Chinaman has aches or pains he believes he may obtain relief by rubbing the image. Should he have rheumatism in his legs he rubs the stone legs of the cow; if his head aches he rubs tLe cow's head; should he have rode horseback for a great distance, he probably rubs the image elsewhere. And so on. • a • Perhaps we smile tolerantly at so quaint au oriental custom. And yet is it more ridiculous than that of millions of Americans who wor- ship only the God of Gold and who will lie and cheat and practice fraud and deception to acquire wealth and, when the occasion of- fers, will not hesitate tc fight, by fair means or foul, for an unearned share of a dead man's fortune? Parting shot: A lot of folks who think they are the whole cheese in reality are a very tiny hunk of cheese hardly enough to bait a mousetrap. F-~rgo.--James C.

THE BEST and CHEAPEST HAlL INSURANCE IS FURNISHED BY THE NORTH DAKOTA STATE HAIL INSURANCE DEPARTMENT Every farmer who owns his farm and every tenant who has consent of the record owner may insure against hail damage regardless of whether or not hail taxes are paid. The state insurance is the cheapest of all hail insur- ance. It is furnished to North Dakota farmers at cost. If you have not already listed your cropped acreage for protection against hail, contact your county auditor immediately.

THE answer to the question of patronage is emphatically "yes," and the proof is that the Democratic party, having elected only three Presidents since the Civil war, has managed to survive without bene- fit of patronage and to present the country, for good or ill, according to the point of vlew, with that far-reach- Ing program which is called the New Deah Except in the administrations of Gro- ver Cleveland, Woodrow Wilson and Franklin D. Roosevelt, the Democratic party has been a stranger to federal patronage. Thougl~ it was a stalwart supporter of Andrew Jackson, who announced that "too the victor belong the spoils," it was Grover Cleveland who declared that "public office is a trust" and who took the first steps to use the civil service law in any measureable degree for the purpose of selecting govern. mental employees. PURPOSE OF AAA By PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT IT IS your duty and mine to con- tinue to educate the people of this country to the fact that ad- justment means not only adjustment downward, but adjustment upward. If you and I agree on a correct fig- ure for a normal carry-over It means that if we have a bumper crop one ear we will, by mutual consent, re- duce the next year's crop in order to even up that'carry-over. At the same time, if we get a short crop in a given year, you and I agree to increase the next year's crop to make up the she#rage. That is exactly what we are doing today in the case of wheat. It is high time for you and for me to carry, by education, knowledge of the fact that not a single program of the AAA contemplated the destruction of an acre of food crops in the United States, in spite of what you may read or be told by people who have special axes to grind. REBUILDING FOREIGN TRADE BY" CORDELL HULL Secretary of State. OUR effort to rebuild Ameri- can foreign trade is being carried steadily forward--with the necessary safeguards against cur- rency fluctuations. Signs are not lack- ing that other governments, finding other methods unsatisfactory, are now disposed to direct their policy in the same direction. All progress made in extending world trade makes it easier to regularize cur- rency relationships. Correspondingly, all progress in this direction makes It much easier and safer for governments to arrange for an extension of trade. These movements supplement each other. As trade grows and currencies approach a condition of stability, the rigid control over exchanges which many governments now exercise cad be lessened or abolished. FELLOWSHIP ESSENTIAL By SIR FRANCIS YOUNGHUSBAND British National Chairman of the World Fellowship of Faiths. ]~ELLOWSHIP is essentially 1' a thing of the spirit. The sci- entist will continue to tell us much about the material world, but he will not always hold the oracular position he now occupies. When we want to know the real nature of the world we will turn in future to the mystic, not as we do now to the philosopher or the scientist. The mystic experiences directly the essential drive of the uni- verse, he reaches his conclusions by direct inspiration, and he will be looked upon as the type of what the race is developing toward In Its slow, evolu, tionary way. ADMINISTRATION POLICIES By EUGENE TALMADGE Governor of Georgia. ARE the actions in Washin.g- ton emanating from the prm; ciples of the Democratic doctrine. Are the policies emanating from Washington in keeping with the con- stitution of the United States? I can hear your answer. But I can also hear the question in your minds: "It is easy to attack what is going on; anyone can tear down and criticize, but what remedy have you!" Here it is: Go back to the Constitu- tion of the United States l Abolish all activities ef the govern- ment maintaining and operating a bUm, ness. EXTREMES By HENRY I. HA.RRIMAN Former President U.

BOCEBS BEVERLY HILLS.--Well all I know is Just what I read in the papers, or what I kinder eve drop around and hear. We are back at the f Studio working on the picture after be- ing away on loca- tion up around Sac- ramento, Cal. We had a lot of fun on steamboats up there. We had two or three rented and lived right on the boats. Had a big steamboat race. Ir- vin Cobb was the captain of one and me of the other. Cobb really knew something about a boat, but I am not part of a boat man, either ocean or river, although I would take the river first. I am the champion sea sick guy of this or any range. I am getting a lit- tle better though than I used to in my eaNy days of ocean traveling. Its all nerve you know and I am as yellow as a small pox flag. I give up and off to the hay I go, But to get back to rivers, this Sacra- mento River that we were working on is a pretty big river. Wcl: nothing iikc the Missi.~;~ippi (but what is?) or eve~ the Ohio. In fact Irviu said its about half the size of the Tennessee. I dent know no~hing but the Verdigris, (that last four letters gris, is prounced gree) Verdigree. Its a pretty big river. It has to be to furnish Claremore with its water supply, and have any left over. I was born right on her, about a quarter of a mile away. She is steep banks, and muddy and boggy, and you cant cross it only at fords. This Sacramento and another river that run into it right where we was working, the American River, that was the river where they first found the gold in Cal. And say, the gold thing is a-booming around up there now, and all over Cali- fornia. There has been a pretty big strike up here in the desert at Mohave. The high price of gold is what has caused em to get out and dig again. Its a railroad division point. I like to go to those little mining towns. One time out here in the old silent day pictures, it was in 1919, we made about three pictures up at a place near Mohave, Calledarndsburg. It has a big old mine, and Irene Rich was with us. She was just a breaking in as a leading lady. She is a big radio star now. Modern audiences think that aid folks are Just to be the fathers and mothers of the young ones. And too in one of those same pictures was Margaret Lie. ingston, who is now Paul Whiteman's wife. She is the one that made him quit eating so much. The way she did it she would let him order whatever he want- ed and then she had a string tied to it and she would pull it away from him, and he got thin grabbing at it. I was one time te rescue her out of the water. Well we had to go another two hun- dred miles to find a stream. You know this water thing out here aint Just water, its gold. Well I was supposed to swim in on a horse and rescue her, and as I dragged her ashore pull her up on my horse ..nd run to the doctors with ler. Well say you get on dry land and try to stay up on your horse and pull • fair size old gal up on there with you, when she is supposed to be plum dead, and then wet to boot! Say, she had to reduse before I could get her up there. There ts nothing heavier than a person that is wet, even a little person. You dip one of Singers Midgets in the water and let him soak awhile, and I bet you Dempsey wouldent lift him up in fron~ of him. We had lots of fun in those days In the old silent pictures. They wasent so careful and teglous with everything. I love Westerns. They wont let me make one. They say they can only get Just so much money with It, as they have a kind of set price for Westerns, but I would like to get to make a good one. (Now dent start sending me zny, you cant hint anything in this business w i t h o u t somebody, d o z e n s of era, taking you up on it.) Fox picks my stories, not me. They notify me the night before we start what its to be, if they know by then themselvs. Pretty near everything in pictures nowadays is made inside a stage. Street scenes, churches, homes and all are put up inside a big stage. Then they can light it as they want too. We got a whole big steamboat built inside on a stage, water around the edges and all, but we miss a lot by not going on all those old location trips. Course this one to Stockton and Sacramento on this pic- ture was great and unusual too, The people are awful fine to you, mighty' friendly and nice. but the whole thing must look awful nutty to era. for there is no sense to it. It drives you pretty near cuckoo just to try to watch em make era. One scene done a couple of dozen times, a dozen different ways, and distances away from the camera, and different •ngles. But to the looker on It all looks like the same scene, and is, but it makes us look dumber than we really are, to have to do it so many times. I heard of Charley Chaplin doing a scene 70 times, but brother whezl he gets it done its done right. 1935, MeN.tAt $y~licatt, lmt~ WHY FIRST DAY IS LORD'S DAY Gradually Supplanted the Jewish Sabbath. Adoption of Sunday as the Chris- tian Sabbath was gradual. The wor:l Sunday, which occurs nowhere in the Bible, is derived from Anglo- Saxon sunnandaeg, day of the sun, the first day of the week having been dedicated to the sun by the pagans. The fourth commandment --"Remember tbe Sabbath day, to keep it holy"--referred to the ancient Jewish Sabbath, which was the seventh day of the week. Tint the New Testament writers clearly dis- tinguished between the Sabbath andi the fir,% day of the week is strewn by several passages in which the first day is mentioned as following the Sabbath. Although Jesus himself observed the Sabbath, St. Paul seems to have placed observance of this day anmng the customs not obliga- tory on Christians. lie says in Colos- clans 2:16: "Let no nmu therefore Judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holy day, or of the new moon, or of the Sabbath days." Tiffs I)ass~ge has been taken to indicate that the question of the Christian's rehtion to the Jewlsh Sabbath was raised at an early date, although it is not certain that the passu~e refers to the weekly Sabbath. From tim beginlfing many Christians com- memorated tbe first day of tim week as Resurrection day, the day on which Jesns rose from the (lead. "Lord's (lay" first occurs lu l~evela- tion 1:10. I Corinthians 36:2 seems to imply some sort of observ- ance of the first day of the week. There is evidence that the first duy was origin:flly intended as-a substi- tute for the Jewish Sal)buth. but it seems that most of the early Chris- finns observed I)oth the Sabbath and the Lord's day, and tiffs was the tendency "~s lon~ as the Christi'ms were composed ehielly of former ad- herents of Judaism. In the First century St. Ignatius wrote tbaL Christians no lot]ger observed lh9 Sabb'~tb, but the Lord's day Instead. and St. Justin. in tbe Second century. was probably the first Christiuu writer to refer to the Lord's day as Sunday, As centuries passed and the church grew in strength the nmjor- lty of Christians paid less attention to the Sabbath and more attention to the Lord's day until in time the Lord's day or Sunduy supplanted the Sabbath in their eyes.--Indianapolis News. Hawk "Muscleg In" "Muscling In" ls not unknown among birds of prey. Ranger-Nat- uralist H. B, Mills of Yellowstone National park tells this tale of a hawk, au owl and a mouse: "The course of the owl over the wet meadow was suddenly cut short by s quick dive Into the grass. A marsh hawk, unseen heretofore, came at the owl full speed ahead. knocked it from Its position and searched In the grass where the o~1 struck. Neither bird caught any- thing, and lu a moment they were both on the wing again. "The owl, not greatly nonplused, struck Into the grass again In a few minutes. Tim hawk was again on him, and this time with more suc- cess. The owl had caught a meadow mouse, and the hawk ate it for him, or more truly, a part of it, for we frightened him away before he was through."--Kansas City Times, Reduce your ironing time one-third... your labor one-haiti Iron any place with the Coleman.
