. LOOK OUT CHISELERS
Of the 200 relief order “chiselers” de-
tected at Philadelphia during the past
year, more than 100 of them are now
making resiitution, it was revealed by
Dorothy C. Kahn, executive director of
the Philadelphia County Emergency
Relief Board.
It's going to be too bad when the in-
vestigations start around here.
FAILURE OF NRA
An independent investigation of the
National Recovery Act, the first of that
character, made by a nationally prom-
inent research agency, reports that the
scheme is a failure and that it substan-
tially delayed recovery. It concludes
that the NRA failed to increase em-
ployment and wages, its major purpose,
and also retarded the restoration of
parity prices for agriculture.
The experiment reduced the hours of
employment in the United States, halt-
ed real income for labor and capital,
impended the durable goods industry,
failed to make competition fairer and
accomplished little socially useful in its
attempt to regulate trade practices, ac-
cording to the report.
WELCOME TIDINGS
The time is again at hand for school
and college graduations ,and an older
generation is once wondering what it
is going to say to these youngsters
being sent forth to conquer life and
living. It has been a little difficult
these last few years for the makers of
graduation addresses.
It has been harder for the graduates.
They have come forth into contact with
an economic system out of gear, a sys-
tem in which there was no place for
many of them. The generation of the
unwanted! Ready for jobs, but no jobs
te
tactic pledge made to those who were
urged to fit themselves for life and for
work.
The tragic situation seems to be slow-
ly righting itself, From important col-
leges and univerities comes the news
"that positions for graduates are likely
to be more numerous this year than
for several years past. It is good news,
good news for all of us. For all our
hearts were heavy over that unfulfilled
promise. All of us will fly a little flag
of thanksgiving and take new courage
and hope with the youngsters who find
their place—and are wanted in their
place.
A Danish count says he won't marry
an American millionairess because he
doesn’t think she loves his enough. But
we don’t get the connection.
A half million farms were opened up
in the depression years. It may lead to
a new metropolitan type—the local boy
who made good in the small town.
JOY OF CREATION
Hubert T. Parson, at the head of one
of the greatest retail merchandising es-
tablishments in the world, says: “The
sole economic purpose of business is
to provide a service to the public. If
it does not do that it is economic
waste.”
The modern business spirit has
caught the significance of a word which
once was the property of masters,
slaves and preachers. Service now is
spelled in big letters by the best busi-
ness institutions of the country.
The idea still needs to be rescued
fully from its association with humilia-
tion and raised to a place of pride. It is
not enough that the administrator
should realize that the business organ-
ization must stand for service in the
community. The full benefit of the mo-
tive will not be realized until every
last man and woman on the job catches
the inspiration and measures up to it.
There is a prevalent notion that the
“ide and joy of creation died out with
the men who cleared the forests and
single-handed built their homes in the
wilderness; with the hand-craftsmen
who shaped their products into com-
pletion by slow methods of the carpen-
try bench; with the wagon maker who
steamed the wood and bent the felloes
and ironed off the wheel in the primi-
ve shop.
He tenia of today should be able
to catch, and often does catch a farther
vision of service. The old wagon ma-
ker, working alone, turned out a wa-
gon in the course of a winter; the
modern workman, cooperating with
thousands of his fellows, and receiving
the cooperation of the capital savings
of many others, sees the work of his
hands daily eventuating in the pro-
duction of thousands of vehicles of
vastly greater usefulness. The old-

time wagon was an inert thing, to be
dragged about by beasts of burden; the
modern automobile is instinct with life
and energy.
It is infinitely more inspiring, if
properly viewed, to have a share in a
big achievement than to be alone in an
insignificant one. There is not a man
who works to a purpose in our great
modern system of production, who may
not claim the priceful consciousness
and worthy service. And, as Mr. Par-
son declares, that which is not service
is economic waste.
LURE OF UNKNOWN
Wanderlust is wonderlust. Lust for
strange roads is lust for the unknown
things to be seen along them and at
their ends. Individuals of all ages and
all generations have known it—have
felt it dragging them from the beaten
tracks to trails that lead into uncharted |
regions. Some never return. Some do, |
in rags, broken, worn, weary, with
stories of monsters and evil things en-
countered and with scars to prove their
adventures. A few return in fine rai-
ment, enriched, with wondrous tales of
good things found and with evidence
that bears them out. Thus do the ter-
rors and treasures of the unknown be-
come evident.
Sometimes the lust gets into the feet |
and pulls its victims along strange
paths toward wonderous planes, new
lands, unexplored wastes. Sometimes
it gets into the mind and leads toward
strange theories and after strange ob-
jectives some of them real, some chim-
erical, some of them good, some bad.
Sometimes the lure of the unknown
draws toward strange political, moral,
social, economic or metaphysical “isms”
Some of which prove sound and safe
but most of them unsound and deadly
dangerous. Sometimes it gets into
youth and tempts it toward odd mor-
al conceits and fancies—some harmless,
some destructive. Many wanderers
perish on their journeys along strange
mental lines. Others return, sadder and
wiser.
A large number of grown-up “ism”
chasers are today wandering after
strange notions. And many of the
younger generation are in pursuit of '
strange fancies that may come true,
hunting new pleasure by new paths in-
» new haunts. May all return as hope-
