MJrch 28, 1930 by Arthur Brisbane THIS WEEK Federal Reserve Advises Russia Answers the Pope In A. D. 1001930 angsters, Cruel, Silent Los Angeles.-The federal reserw chief tells business to go ahead boldly showing more initiative, less hesitancy Excellent advice. Business will ad vise the federal reserve, when and i: prosperity booms again, to be less en thusiastic about promoting usury, an( run the federal reserve more like banking institution, less like a pawn shop. Reserve board financiers that force& 15 to 20 per cent interest rates, hand ing hundreds of millions to money lenders and adding thousands of mil lions in value, temporarily, to inflated bank stocks, need advice as much a, any business man needs it. Russia, inflamed by the pope's pro- test against atheistic propaganda, re taliates in vindictive fashion. In the Minsk district a fund is started tc build an airplane, presumably for war, to be called "Our Answer to Pope Pius." And from the Veronesh dis- trict workers send to the industrial fund at Moscow ten carloads of church bells, sacred images, crucifixes, etc., to be melted down. That shipment is called "an answer to the pope." One item of news will be remem- bered a million, and ten million, years hence. Nothing else in our age will be of the slightest consequence, even 100,000 years from now. The news that will outlast recollec- tion of this age of industrial and finan- cial barbarism is the discovery of an- other planet in our solar family, sail- ing around outside the orbit of Nep- tune. Earth dwellers in the year one mil- lion nineteen hundred and thirty, as they converse in the ozone area, thirty miles above the earth, will wonder how such primitive beings as ourselves could have discovered that planet. Similarly, we wonder how primitive cave dwellers could have made those interesting pictures of rhinoceroses and horses. Gangsters are not kind to each other. John ("Billiken,,) Rito, described by police as "a bootleg racketeer," member of the "Bugs" Moran gang, lie, in the morgue. Wires with which his arms, hands and ankles were bound when he was taken out of the Chicago river have been removed. The police wonder who burned the tips of his fingers in the process of torturing him beore he was murdered, and why they did it. They will never know. Racketeers kill, and don't talk. 01of links, daily dozens, radio set- t1RgilP exercises and other devices are designed for the man who leads a APPLETON REVIEW FRANK F.

Wh will plan something for him?" Man' millions need to be called early on th radio with this question: "How lon, is it since you have exercised you mind? How much reading wort' while do you do, and how much d( you think as you read?" It is mental not physical, inactivity that hurts nation. The Union Pacific railroad ha bought $500,000 worth of fine nev motor omnibusses. Railroad men havy passed the phase of contempt for au tomobiles. The Union Pacific will usi 22 new omnibusses between Chicago and Los Angeles, 11 between Portland Spokane, Boise and Salt Lake City. What people think decides what they are. Prosperity is to a considerable extent a matter of psychology. Once a man was fastened in a chair his feet put in warm water, and as E practical joke he was shown a razoi of which the blunt end was drawi across the soles of his bare feet. He was told, "You will bleed to death painlessly in this warm water." He didn't lose a drop of blood, but he died Don't let prosperity die in that fash ion, killed by imagination. Mr. Edison is hopeful about a rub. ber supply from goldenrod. Chemists who think it ought to be done by some synthetic process and victims of hay fever are less optimistic. The great inventor, eighty-three years old, says he wants only five years more to finish this job, and doesn't ask to live one hundred years. The death of Primo de Rivera, for- mer Spanish dictator, killed by heart disease, reminds you that being dicta- tor is a wearing job. It takes such a man as Mussolini to stand it for a long time. The Italian ruler establishes a "mi- nor'' class of citizen, not obliged to enter the Italian army. 'This is planned to keep Italians in foreign countries interested in Italy. Wise Mussolini. President Hoover, like a good fam- ily doctor for the nation, says nothing or says things that are encouraging. There is a great deal of value in that. Buy what you want, beginning with a good automobile; buy it now and hen .enjoy it now. Life does not last forever. Keep it busy, and full. GEO. E. MADER INSURANCE Kresge Bldg. Phone 22 110-112 W.
