Hou) to Combat Communism Individuals and ovgnniwiUoiis over what they arc pleased lo term communism's moiincc lo American institutions might protitalily give a little attention lo recent occurrences in the Ohio and Pennsylvania coal fields. Strikes are in progress in easluni Ohio and western Pennsylvania. Almost every, day brings reports of the slugging and shooting of strikers and strike sympathizers by officers. Sometimes the victims are described as communists, sometimes merely as strikers. 'The'Jr sole offense, has been that; they Have engaged in parades and other public demonstrations, The number of actual communists in tlie United States is.

ridiculously -small. Of active parly members there are only a few thousand in the whole country, and it is doubtful if a majority of these know what it is all alioul. A communist philosophy, achieved through a process ot sober reasoning, is virtually non-existent in America, and there is nothing to indicate likelihood of any material growth for it. Bui where propaganda from Moscow or elsewhere, and tlie high-blown nr- guriicnts of theorists achieve nothing, police clubs wielded upon the heads of Lmoileiidiw men tuuT women are ccr- to produce the emotional cijiitva- -lent, of communism. The only protection America i needs against commun- ism is a fair opportunity for American citizens earn a living, and a decent respect for rights of American citizens on the part of those in au- tlioritv.

Europe res's largely on what America does. When an American president, by a simple statement to. the press, can check the probability of revolution in Germany and inspire all of Kimipu with a new lioiw, it is evident that American isolation i.s ended. Just where has lliis isolation of ours gone, anyway? Most historians say that it really ended with the war with Spain. jieixinjf the Philippines and setting free, the United States announced itself as a world power.

Less than two decades later the country found itself engaged in a Kurop'-'an war, sending troops aoOO miles overseas, mainlaid- ing a lleut in the North Sea, sending smaller to the an and dispatching an army to Siberia. SIDE GLANCES By George Clark Fast Thinking In the Air The with which an aviator has to think sometimes is amply illustrated by the most recent mi-ail- veuture of Major James II. DoolitlU 1 who is one of America's most talented flyers. Major Doolitlle was speeding along at a 235-mile-nn-lioiir clip over East St. Louis, 111., the other day, traveling a bare.

100 feet from the ground, when the fabric began to tear losu from the wings of his plane. In a moment lie had nosed his ship up to an altitude of 300 feet. Then, because the construct ion of its fuselage made it hard for him to jump out, he rolled it over on its back and dropped out upside down, letting his parachute gel him down safely while the ship went on and crashed. If all happened in a very few seconds. iMajor Duolittlc is alive luday because he can think with lightning and act as fast as he thinks.

OUT I sola Policy Those who like to think that the Atlantic ocean still isolates America froni Europe as effectively as it did in the days of sailing vessels must be finding it hard to understand the high sigiiilicauce of President Hoover's proposal for a year's moratorium on war debts and reparations.

In the current issue uf The lU of Wall Street, an.influential New York liiuincieii was tuiiitcd as making tlie I'ol- loiviiiB remark: "Pronounced improvement in business in this country, and the world over, will conic if everybody will stick at work on his own job." In a country which gives to its bankers the breathless awe that hankers get in America, this may pass for a very weighty saying. Nevertheless, it may cause a little iierplexity, if thc nation at larite tries to adopt it. There arc approximately 6,000,000 Americans today who have no jobs to slick lo.
