HIS COMMENCEMENT
A worthy life of endeavor, learning, and human philosophy we read of in the obituary of Frank Weaver. What three things would any man rather have said about himself?
And yet a greater thing is found. Fifty years of the world found him back again working toward the ideal of his youth, unbent, altruistic and unspoiled by that which we see as the outside, to be the first of an older generation graduated with the new. He died in the springtime of his ambition.
Frank Weaver leaves a challenge to the cynics and the unappreciative
The winning number in the Bok peace plan competition was 1469. This number probably will be used as a taliism by speculators of all sorts for the coming season.
AND STILL THEY FIGHT
Several weeks have passed since the law-makers of this great and democratic nation met again to conduct the nation's business—and they are still marking time. Confronted with the urgent issues of the bonus bill, the Mellon plan, the League of Nations, and many others, Congress continues to squabble over the chairmanship of the Interstate Commerce Commission, adjourning at the end of each day with nothing accomplished.
How long is this sort of thing going to continue? Citizens all over the country are becoming more and more impatient at the delay of representatives who have failed to represent.
It matters not to the average taxpayer whether a Republican or a Democrat holds the chairmanship of a committee, so long as that committee gets busy and begins to function. If it is true that the control of certain important committees forcebids the success or failure of any proposed legislation, then it would seem that there is something wrong with our system of government
Already, there is an opinion among many students of modern national governments that the Congress of the United States is not as effless as it might be, and that our legislative body might, with benefit, be patterned more after that of England. True, the British parliament is far from perfect but it has some good points which we might well consider.
In the first place, it has frequently been pointed out that the membership of both houses of Congress is too large. The time has passed when each state zealously guarded its independence and clamored for large representation. A much smaller group of men could represent a given district equally as well, and congressional business could be disposed of much more rapidly and efficiently.
Another welcome change would be one which would provide for congressmen taking office soon after they are elected, thus making it more nearly possible for voters to elect representatives whom they know to favor certain legislation which they desired at that time.
Obviously, any great change in the organization and functioning of Congress must come slowly, if it comes at all; but most tax-payers, weary of partisanship and personal politics,
will welcome any plan which will
eliminate unnecessary deadlocks and
=unedite the real work of Congress.
Fashion decrees the King Tut influence to return in the spring clothes. We are wondering if our nerves can stand both King Tut and Mah Jongg in one season.
UNIVERSAL RADIO LANGUAGE
The rapid development of radio broadcasting is most likely to create an increased demand for a universal language.
Already national and linguistic frontiers are over-leaped. President Millerand of France recently sent a New Year's greeting which was broadcast in England. Not long ago a Paris audience was listening to a concert from the Eifel tower. Quite suddenly the hearers found themselves switched off to a lecture on navigation in English—an aerial mischance.
Relaying is bound to increase the area of broadcasting. No difficulty is encountered with music, for the people are so used to concerts with singing in foreign languages that it doesn't seem so strange to have a song in a foreign tongue come from abroad.
But speech, even functioning merely as announcement, is troublesome. It will be impossible to have a translation to all languages used by a coemopolitan audience scattered over more than one continent.
The solution? Seeingly it would be the creation or adoption of a universal language as recommended
cinquanti of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. Then comes the diplomatic expedition of selecting several languages and translating into them all of what has been said.
This will be a tedious task, but may win more approval than the choice of a single language.
Some one has recommended that a simplified form of English be prepared for international use, but the French take a stand for their own language.
But as a metropolitan paper says, where music is heard the speech of man is bound to follow, and "the music of the hemisphere will become the overture to the symphony of the sphere."
TODAY'S EDITORIAL
Man's Intentions
Whatever a man's problem and handicaps there is a word that describes the one thing he can do and the one thing he cannot do. The man who lets nothing stok his steady advance needs fear no future obstacles. His motor is his will and no force can long chain and impoverish that. Success comes sometimes when least expected. It is missed because of lack of faith in its existence.
Success is wholly a matter of mental attitude toward success. The half-hearted idea that it may work out never made a success of any attempt to terminate at the beginning to be successful and then by using it.
But he who advances, whose watch but he is "forward," is never surprised at prosperity. He welcomes it when it comes, for he has long expected it and is prepared to meet its responsibilities.
It it isn't swell headedness to believe oneself bigger than anything which may stand in the way of success, but to beieve that is necessary to success. Success is determent or determination and keeping a going.
