California 'Superiority "th Important Thinjr in the Olympic Games Not Winning But Taking Part. The Essential Thing to Not Conquering; But Fighting A large sign bearing those words is over the entrance way to the Olympic Games. American newspapers should bear that sign in mind.

They are apt to offend their visitors by gloating over much concerning the superiority of American athletes. It is more difficult to withstand victory than defeat: Out here in California we are particularly proud of our athletes and we are too prone to under estimate the ability of competitors in other sections. The outcome of the William Cart Ben Eastman duel is an example. When "Blazing Ben" was upsstting record after record here a few months ago, none of us had heard of "Little Bill" Carr. We considered Eastman a "miracle The newspapers played Ben to such an extent that he was unintentionally treated unjustly.

Had he been the average college boy hero, his head would have expanded to such a degree that his career would have been blighted. Our sports writers take the same attitude toward our college football elevens. It is true that our California teams have shown their superiority over many of the strong Eastern outfits, but Notre Dame has sort of calmed us down in our gloating. It is a good thing for us that a Bill Carr and a Notre Dame come along every now and then to rid us of some of our cockeyness. 0 Laugh On Us It is only natural that Europeans should give us the "horse laugh" over the display of military force ordered by President Hoover in dealing with what remained of the war veterans seeking bonus money.

Only a few weeks before, President Hoover appealed to the nations of the world to lay down their arms. Le Journal, of Paris, gave expression to the undercurrent of derision when it asked what would have happened if the soldiers at Washington had not had gas, tanks and "all that apparatus which Americans stigmatize at Geneva, but which they know well how to use when it becomes necessary." Indeed, there is more to the remark than a mere tinge of sarcasm. Suppose Washington should actually be in danger nobody seriously contends it was recently just what would the President do without an adequate military establishment to protect the nation's capital If he was scared of a lot of poorly fed, undisciplined, and unax med veterans of his country's own citizen soldiery, what would he do if Washington should be invaded by an armed foreign foe It is a beautiful thought, this one of world disarmament, but it will only see realization when the spirit of contention and hate no longer survives in the human make up. Meanwhile each nation will continue to keep its standing army. Santa Cruz News.

Forgetting Profits There is inspiration for American business in the attitude of 0. A. Hammer, president of the Iowa Pearl Button Company at Muscatine, Iowa, as shown by his announcement of a 5 per cent wage raise in his four factories, together with inauguration of the five day week. "We are going to forget all about profits," he says, "and concentrate on the profits that accrue to the community from added employment and increased buying power. We believe it is better to give jobs than doles.

Continual charity will weaken the fiber of our people. But the morale and self respect of the country can be upheld by decent employment." His purpose is not purely philanthropic. "If our. plan were adopted generally over the country," he adds, "it would so restore buying power that there would be a satisfactory demand for the products of our factories." For nearly three years the nation's heart has been made sick by deferred hope. Prophecy after prophecy of business revival has been found false.

Any optimistic forecast is rash. It does begin to look, however, from developments of the last few weeks, with slight but steady improvement in a season when no improvement is expected, that business and industry are getting ready for the turn. The moment may come, within a few weeks, when any considerable following of the example given will provide the push to get business off its dead center and get the old machine started again. furniture dav aftcrr Grant Brut We are sincerely sorry for this pair. In a way they are more pitiable than the unemployed father of a large family who has kept his sense of values.

MAKE WANTS KNOWN Xext Tuesday, the Yolo county board of supervisors will take action on the question of whether this county shall continue to pay some $21,000 to Sacra for the education of Yolo county pupils in that city As far as the high school pupils are concerned, there seems little doubt but that they should be forced to attend one of the Yolo county high schools where they can secure just as good educational facilities, and Yolo county will profit by having them enrolled here, thus receiving additional state appropriations But in the matter of the $14,000 being expended for the education of 100 junior college students at Sacramento, there appears to be two sides to the question. The supervisors have not made up their minds, individually or collectively, on what is to be done They are open minded on the question, and most of them concede that the question has two sides We know from our conversations "with various individuals, that there is a definite alignment of people on each side of the matter, and one of the best things that could happen would be for the supporters of these two sides to.

go before the board and explain their various angles on the situation. As far as the high school students are concerned, it is absurd that this county should pay Sacramento for their education and at the same time lose state revenue from their attendance out of the county If this county did not have well located high schools or if its schools were not adequately equipped, it would be a far different matter But the schools are so situated that few of the group will have to travel any further to attend one of the Yolo county institutions that they do now to go to one of the Sacramento schools And it is an accepted fact that the quality of training and the facilities of the Yolo county high schools are all that can bo desired Which we believe means that the Yolo county supervisors will see to it that the high school students attend Yolo county schools. The juaior college situation is a bit different in that there are no four year state colleges close to this county But even then there is a question and Glenn, Tehama and Colusa counties have taken definite stands against future appropriations for junior colleges This movement should be merely the start of a statewide campaign to lift the junior colleges out of the secondary school system and to make state colleges of them, removing them from the financial limitations of the counties This rloes not necessarily mean making them four year colleges, for they could still be maintained as two year junior colleges under complete state control and support. At any rate, it would be a good idea for those who have decided views on the subject to appear before the supervisors and let their wants be known. Things look pretty bad for Mayor Walker.
