INTOLERANCE AND DICTATORSHIP There has naturally been considerable indignation in the United States over developments reported from Germany having to do with racial and religious differences. The situation brings to mind the fact that in a dictatorship, whether it be communist or otherwise, freedom of the press and religious liberty soon go by the boards. Nearly everyone is young enough to remember what happened in Russia when the red dictators got control. Not only were certain religious organizations abolished, but religion itself has practically been wiped out. There is no such thing as freedom of the press or even freedom of thought. Every man fears his neighbor as a spy who may send him to Siberia for expressing an opinion which is not in line with the policies of the Moscow government. In Italy, when Mussolini created a fascist state, the same thing happened. Freedom of the press was abolished and freedom of thought rendered perilous. Religious freedom was endangered too and it was only the overwhelming strength of the Catholic Church which forced the dictator to make terms with it. There has been an outcry in Mexico, generally a country governed by dictators, about religious persecution, and now from Germany comes the news of the curtailment of religious freedom by the government. Freedom of the press has long since gone. The lessons for America are not hard to find. We may become indignant, but we cannot, of course, interfere with the internal affairs of another country. That is the business of the people of that country, although we can always hope that they proceed in an atmosphere of freedom and tolerance. But the affairs of the United States are the business of our people. It is no accident that the rise of dictatorship is always accompanied by the abolition of the press and by the curtailment of racial and religious freedom. That always NEW TARIFF ISSUES In spite of the fact that no effort has been made in Congress to repeal the Smoot-Hawley tariff law which was so roundly denounced by the now majority party in the campaign of 1932, the question of tariff policy does occasionally come up. For example: the other day in the Senate during a debate on certain AAA amendments, Senator Tydings of Maryland declared: "I think the sooner we adjourn and go home and get a good night's sleep and come back and learn how to levy taxes the better off the nation will be." To that remark Senator Smith of South Carolina, a leader supporting the AAA amendment, intimated that under such a theory the Senate should have adjourned when the Hamiltonian idea of high protection came in. Then ensued the following conversation, according to the record: "Mr. Borah: In view of the fact that the Jeffersonian party is now in power why not repeal the Hamiltonian policy? "Mr. Smith: I will vote aye. "Mr. Borah: I know the Senator will, but he will be very much alone. "Mr. Smith: Yes, very much alone, that is true." It would seem therefore that the Smoot-Hawley tariff issue were disposed of, for the time being. This may be true so far as Congress is concerned. But something more may be heard from the country next year. As a matter of fact, the supposedly high tariff is now being disposed of and it is no longer protective. With our imports exceeding our exports and with a flood of foreign commodities coming in because of the high price in the United States—many of these prices artificially controlled—the effects of the Smoot-Hawley law are rapidly being nullified... Mr. Smith: Yes, very much alone, that is true." It would seem therefore that the Smoot-Hawley tariff issue were disposed of, for the time being. This may be true so far as Congress is concerned. But something more may be heard from the country next year. As a matter of fact, the supposedly high tariff is now being disposed of and it is no longer protective. With our imports exceeding our exports and with a flood of foreign commodities coming in because of the high price in the United States—many of these prices artificially controlled—the effects of the Smoot-Hawley law are rapidly being nullified. But this isn't all. While Congress is not seeking to repeal the law, the State Department is doing its best to nullify many of its effects by drawing up so-called "tariff treaties," agreements made with countries who have already shown their unwillingness to keep agreements by fizzling out on paying their debts to the United States. So there may be a tariff issue after all, in the 1936 campaign. The people are going to awaken to the situation as the nullification of the present tariff law continues. There are no inheritance, estate or other form of so-called death taxes in Nevada. But they certainly do tax you plenty for regaining your life and liberty. Nicaragua has balanced its budget. Maybe they will send us a regiment of marines to show us how it is done. Remember the good old days when a college professor didn't get any farther away from home than the campus? What we need in America nowadays is less knee action in our automobiles on Sunday and more in the churches. After so long a time it has now become fashionable to wear suspenders but it looks like it will be quite a while yet before red flannel underwear comes into its own. The high school youth who used to aim at the stars is still doing it. But now he has grown up and is a cameraman in Holloywood. "Soul" is the subject of the Lesson-Sermon on Sunday in all branches of The Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Mass. The Golden Text is from Leviticus: "I will set my tabernacle among you; and my soul shall not abhor you, and will be your God, and ye shall be my people." Among the Bible citations in the Lesson-Sermon are the verses about Jesus, from Mark: "And they bring unto him one that was deaf, and had an impediment in his speech; and they beseech him to put his hand upon him... And looking up to heaven, he sighed, and saith unto him, Ephphatha, that is, Be opened. And straightway his ears were opened, and the string of his tongue was loosed, and he spake plain." A correlative passage from "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy includes the statements: "Mind alone possesses all faculties, perception, and comprehension... If it were possible for the real senses of man to be injured. Soul could reproduce them in all their AT THE CHURCH MICHAL'S EPISCOPAL CHURCH Dale at Emily Street D.

As a result of the conference, and in view of a recent decision of the Supreme Court, Judge Smith and himself would recommend that no action be taken at the present time in dismissing the suit. Mr. Scott suggested, however, the propriety of ascertaining just what the Santa Ana Company were willing to concede if this company would dismiss said suit.

Editor, Anaheim Bulletin, Anaheim, California. Dear Sir: I would appreciate having this letter published in your letter box. In last night's Bulletin you had an editorial entitled "Tremendous responsibility" which I would not take the time to answer were it not for the veiled insinuations contained therein. 2nd—You state "The responsibility includes the possible destruction of the major property values in the County." 3rd—"The position of the water company is selfish, yet it seems unreasonable that a relatively small group should be willing to cooperate the interests of all might be cared for." Now, Mr. Editor, answering the first insinuation, do you really believe that the stockholders of the ANAHEIM UNION WATER COMPANY," which is the company you refer to, whose stockholders have one of the biggest investments in the county, whose lands are irrigated by water, most which is obtained from the underground basin, the same as any other irrigator, whose experience in water matters dates back some fifty years ago, and which company has spent millions of dollars in battles up and down the river protecting the water rights in all property owners in Orange County, would be foolish enough to work or vote against their own interests. Do you suppose that the weekly newspaper you refer to, which has been in existence longer than any other periodical in the county, has ample time in which to study and know existing conditions, and you will have to admit that your own knowledge comes from observations of only a few short years.
