The Low Down
From Hickory Grove
Once in a while I mosey out there
on the Coast, and when I do, I al
ways go to hear a young feller there
—he’s from Alabama —and he has
a knack of wakin’ you up, that get’s
you.
Last Sunday he was tellin’ about
science, and what might be worked
out to increase our average life of
40 years, as it is now, to 70.
And medicine and science, he
says, they are not buckin’ religion
or vice versa. But while science, it
is findin’ ways to prolong life, it al
so is findin’ ways of eliminating the
human race —like poison gas and
such.
So when you leave the church,
maybe you don’t have the answer to
everything or anything, and are
even confused, but pardner, you are
liable to kinda halfway wonder to
yourself, on the way home—what
is next, after 70.
And you will mavbe be a little
uncomfortable, and if you are,
maybe you will sit down and do
some ponderin'. And a preacher
who can make a person ponder, he
is gettin’ some place—lookin’ at the
way stuff is goin’ on, speed and ev
erything —and the undertaker never
gettin’ a half day off.
Yours, with the low down,

Cooperation Instead of Retaliation
John W. Hanes, member of the
SEC, recently said: "I believe that
the time has come for business mea
to cease harping on the theme that
the government is the enemy of
business. And it shall be my ever
lasting endeavor to persuade govern
ment officials from uttering publicly
•r privately the thought that busi
ness is the enemy of government.’’
Business men certainly don’t want
to feel that government is their
enemy. This breach between gov
ernment and business has been
largely created by politicians who,
in recent years, have chastised the
many for the shortcomings of the
few, in business.
It is politicians who have passed
legislation hamstringing and pun
ishing business. It is politicians who
have saddled business with a tax
burden that makes operations next
to profitless in many instances, ft
is politicians who have forced gov
ernment into direct competition
with business in certain fields, using
to the full its advantages of tax
freedom, and unlimited public cre
dit. It is politicians who have pil
loried business men, and held them
up to scorn and ridicule. It is poli
ticians who have been undermining
confidence in our American system
of government and fomenting class
hatred between lalior and capital.
It is not business’ duty to make
“peace” with government. Govern
ment exists to serve business and
the individual. Government is a
means to an end, not an end in it
self. Government’s true purpose is
to act as an umpire, not a player,
in the commercial affairs of the
people. Government should punish
the guilty —and cooperate with the
innocent. And that is exactly what
the politicians have prevented gov
ernment from doing.
Government will find practically
•11 business ready to work in
accord with it when the politicians
pursue policies of cooperation in
stead of retaliation.
In a year's time, Japan has
bombed, shot and killed hundreds
of thousands of Chinese but as they
advance three Chinese seem to spring
up where one was killed, and they
seem to fight mere courageously and
skillfully ss the time passes.
According to federal census figures
in 1936, 24,568 sets of twins were
born in the United States, 227 sets
nf triplets, six sets of quadruplets
but no quints.
In the past two weeks 7,000
hones in Montana have been stricken
with the new sleeping sickness and
authorities state that aa a general
rale fifty per cent of the stricken
animals die.

Cascade Democrats Oppose New Marshal
At a special meeting in Great
Falls the Cascade county Democratic
central committee denounced Presi
dent Roosevelt’s action in appoint
ing W. W. Crawford of Great Falls
to be U. S. Marshal for Montana io
the place of Sid Willis, also a resi
dent of the Electric city.
The group adopted a motion by
Dominic Spogen, formerly mayor
of Belt and at one time Montana
legislator, condemning the appoint
ment, and urging Montana senators
to oppose confirmation. Spogen said
the action was necessary to preserve
“clean politics.”
