' ' , Right now we are in danger of developing too many peo pie of this type. AW ve all heard the kind of person whojooks at Europe with pppeyed wonder,' and mutters to himself, "Gosh!

This train of thought is very easy to fall into these days. But it is dangerous. There is nothing in success itself that deserves worship, or even respect..1 The thing to ask is,. "What sort of success was sought?" and, "How was it achieved?" , - ' ' , . , , ' It is certainty true that the military accomplishments of Hitler's Germany, strictly as military accomplishments, are .magnificent. A German army has been developed which no .one has. yet been able to resist. , Questions: How worthy an object is that? How has that served the world' and its people ? . - ' ; Question again: How was it done? At what cost, and by what means? . ; : The answer is simple: By channeling an unheard-of percentage per-centage of the productive ability of the German people into building a military machine. By making every man a soldier .and training1 him for periods of time and with a thoroughness thorough-ness which other nations were unwilling to adopt. The other nations were reluctant (to believe that men were made for this. ... ' . . - : Suppose the United States had embarked. in 1933 on a similar course.

Dut the democratic way, even though it has devoted itself it-self to peaceful objectives, has shown even in those a tremendous tre-mendous power. That power is novybeing diverted by world currents jnto' military channels, channels more clearly marked mark-ed by the very failure of European democracies to navigate them. , Those failures were not failures of power to perform ; they were failures to recognize the course.

"' 'it - "- Democratic Show Not As Cut and Dried as it Looks BY BRUCE CATTON Dally Herald Washington Correspondent WASHINGTON, July 12 - By contrast with the Republican convention, con-vention, which was a wide-open riddle from the start with the answers known only to familiars of dream books, the Democratic convention looks easy , . . a one-man one-man show whose story might as weU be written in advance. Actually, though, It isn't that simple. There are a lot of questions ques-tions which can't be answered until the chips go down, and on their answers can depend much of the country's immediate political polit-ical future. First and foremost, of. course, Is the question: Will FDR run for a third term ? It is taken for granted u ly most people that he will . . . but no one is dead certain. Lately there has been, an upswing In the number of rumors which say Vie won't; stories saying he told this or that ' friend - that he was weary and wanted to step down, i lll-natlilA'l rallA.Diul thaf Tia'b lA.th ' ill-natured guesses that he's loath to run against Wendell Wulkie, hunches that he win bow out at the last minute in ultra-dramatic style. Most politicians think he'll be nominated, -but have their fingers crossed. WIIX PRESIDENT WRITE . PLATFORM T ' Beyond that are some other questions no one- is quite sure about. ; . , ,. . Will the convention be a one man show 7 That" is, will FDR write the platform, name the vice presidential candidate, and In other, ways -dominate all the pro ceedings, or i will ;there .be room for dissent, compromise and a Throat few old-time Democratic party scraps? - , How about the conservative southern Democrats one of whom, Senator Cotton Ed Smith of Southern Carolina, has already said he would bolt the party if it goes for a third term? Will the able work of a stout administration adminis-tration southerner like Smith's co-stater, Senator Jimmy Byrnes, harmonize the distrust felt by such old-line Democrats as Senator George, of Georgia ? And, in " the connection, how about the bright young . men of the Inner circle New Deal ;the Tommy Corcorans, Ben. Cohens and - the rest ? Will they " be running run-ning things, or will they get frozen out in favor of the practical prac-tical politicos like Senator-Byrnes and Speaker Bankhead? WHAT ABOUT , , . WHEELER'S THREAT ? What will the spectre of Winkle, Win-kle, do to . the convention ?v Will it force adoption of a red hot" platform, plank , on public power J Will the strategy in general be to r. . .1 . i. . Wn TVT Tl 1 stand pat on the New Deal record, or will it be aimed more specifically specifi-cally at what may be supposed to be weak' spots In Willkle's arm or? :. Much more important; what about Senator Burton K. Wheeler; who has promised that there will be a "peace r party" in the field this fall if the Democrats fail to take a sharp ; keep-out-of-war turn at Chicago? W1U his fight ran, or will his third party threat force a , toning-down , of FDR's foreign policy?. How much sup port will he get? If he bolts, how many Democrats will bolt with him ? - Will Jim Farley stay hitched? win uarner go along ' with a Roosevelt-dominated convention ? Will the New Dealers force se lection of a man like Supreme Court Justice Douglas for vice president, or will that nomination go to a man like Byrnes - or Bankhead? What part will Paul V. McNutt play? You' can make a pretty good guess about some of those answers an-swers now. Others can be answered an-swered only after the convention has got under way. In any case; mere are enough of these questions ques-tions to show that this convention conven-tion is, by no means likely to be a cut-and-dried affair.

He 'hoped Mrs. King "would stew in her own juice. He didn't know whether her future chagrin would counterbalance his present discomfort, but to get lid of her was worth even this. "It's about the Kelly girl kidnaping. kid-naping. Wake her up. We'll soon settle this before the train starts." Denny was furious. They'd not wake up Peace. He could substantiate sub-stantiate his .actions. Ha listened to the accusations, and told the story of the .two blue dresses all over, again. ."My fiancee is due any minute. You can ask her. Meanwhile, check the telegram. Get the address from Western Union and . telephone the Warrens." War-rens." That, the officer assured him, had already been attempted. True, the name was correct, but that didn't signify anything. Warren might be one of the gang this lady (Mrs. King) intimated were springing up en route. At any "rate, no one had answered at the address. ' . Carole stood up for him. "Mrs. King has made a silly mistake. Captain," she said with her best Hollywood smile. "Why, I've spent the whole day with Mr. Dennis and the child, and She did not finish, but cried, 'Here's Miss Lowell now! She'll prove everything." "What will I prove?" Rhoda asked Carole. "You seem to know as much about Wayne Dennis as anyone." She stared haughtily past the uniformed men. "What is this, Denny?" But before he could open his mouth, Mrs. King demanded, "Where's that foreigner I saw you with earlier in the evening? If he wasn't the image of a thug in a wlmted' lineup in this detective magazine, I'll cros3 my heart and hope to die!" Rhoda explained glibly about the favor she and her fiance were doing the Warrens, because of the addition to the family. , Fancy Quilt Making Pride Of Skillful Provo Resident By LARRY "Tell me how you spend your leisure time, and I will tell you what you you are," says one. "Tell me what you read, and I will tell you the type of mind you have, says another. If these maxims are true, a visit to the home of Mrs. Susie Gardner, 535 East First South street will give you the key to her character and a little persuasion per-suasion as to her chosen hobby will reveal the course of her weu-directed weu-directed life. Mrs. Gardner is a native of Sanr pete county. She is a branch of the sturdy oak tree known as See-ley, See-ley, which had its planting in the early days of Utah history; hence she i3 a native pioneer in ner own right, and knows the rugged trails cf life and their sttm requirements but deep in the current of her being lay an artistic urge that was later to blossom and grow as the years went by. With a family of eleven children Susie found little time to indulge in fancy needle work, but when ner husband closed the store for the day, and supper was over, the children chil-dren asleep, she did manage to crochet a scallop or two or lac, or cut out a few quilt blocks. The card table had no attraction for her. No, indeed. The role of a helpmate,, mother and home maker, required all her strengtn and interests. The rearing "Of a family, if it Is well done, is no part-time job, no frivolous affair. Mrs. Gardner Is one of those dependable poised women who hold civilization on a high level because of their ideals and good works. Since coming to Provo seven years ago. Susie has made gc use of her talents as a quilter and needle artist. During that time she lias made over 30 quilts by hand and has given them away as girts to her children and relatives. The work entailed tn such an undertaking is beyond belief, and yet ahe persists per-sists in doing this tedious, but interesting work because, as sne says, she lovea to do it. "They represent my idea of beauty and are a part of men and after all that's what make a gift more valuable. The gift without the giver Is bare," she said. "Did you keep any of these quilts for yourself? I asked as I was about to leave after an hour's visit. "I kept only one for myself," she replied, "let me show It to you " She 'said it was her masterpiece. It was called "Martha Washington's Washing-ton's Flower Garden." "It is indeed a masterpiece, Su- i sie," I assured her. The com bin- j ation of colors blended beautifully j The policeman grinned. "A baby? ' Why didn't you say so? That's where Warren was at the hospital. We'll check again. This lady's story sounds all right .to me." The conductor glowered at Mrs. King, whose beady eyes still litld their suspicion. Denny accepted their lumbering apologies. He would still be on the train when it arrived in Los Angeles, and if they cared to investigate further, there'd be plenty of opportunity. The officials withdrew. "And now, if you'll excuse me," Denny said tj Carole, rising. "And thanks lr your faith. You may keep Joan for a hostage, Mrs. King." He crinned wryly, following follow-ing Rhoda down the aisle. :"Of all t!ie hideous trips!" she complained. "Poor Bertrand was taken with, one of his chronic appendicitis ap-pendicitis attacks at the beginning of the second net. Thinks it was the shad we ate. I had to take him home. And then to come back to this! You've had a nice dy, I gathered." And bo on into the night! '"PI IE trip wasn't coming up to Denny's expectatiens. Pi?ate was good, Denny thought, considering, con-sidering, but somehow her presence pres-ence seemed to be a little wede between him and Rhoda. Whn he told the child about Huck Finn and Tom Sawyer and the big Mississippi, Mis-sissippi, Rhoda did not join in. She always had a letter to write. Carole came Into the observation observa-tion car the following morning. She sought -an empty desk. "Rid of the pest?" h asked, pausing a moment with Peace by his side. "Don't you believe It. She says I'm an unprotected girL She's promised to watch out that nothing noth-ing happens to me." "On account of ? Uh-huh. . Isn't she priceless? Well, she's not going to ruin my entire trip. She won't take a snub. Maybe she thinks I'm in one of the lineups myself. Poor soul! Lonely widow, plenty of money, and nothing to do but mmd other people's' business." ' " "We'll have to find her a boy friend." Which showed how mistaken Denny could be. Taking Peace out to the observation platform to give the turtles their airing, he came upon Mrs. King and a small gray-bearded gray-bearded man, chinnir.-r together like old friends. Caleb Ogden, his name was, a big oil man from Texas. But going on to California to play a bit of golf, see a few- movie stars, and "get rid of some of his holdings," he was telling Mrs. King.
