MEDDLERS ON THE MARCH
Somebody has recently written that public indifference
is “the mainstay of modern government. There is more in
that remark than meets the eye.
It might be argued that there can hardly be any good
government without a substantial amount of public indiffer
ence. An ancient proverb puts it another way. Too
many cooks spoil the broth. When too many people med
dle with government they make a mess of it.
An evident danger to the safety and prosperity of Am
erica is that far too many people are meddling recklessly
with matters which they don’t understand. To make mat
ters worse, thev don’t want to understand. But they do
run the Nation.
The most dangerous of them are men who ought to
know better. Most of them do know better. But because
they are demagogues, ambitious and unscrupulous, they are
willing to identify themselves with political doctrines which
they don’t believe in private.
‘ And millions of well-meaning but fuzzy-thinking Amer
icans follow their leadership and think they are doing their
bit to save the Nation.
That is why this broad continent has become the stamp
ing-ground for some of the dizziest ideas that evei aillicted
a civilized people.
We have been told that democracy depends on every
citizen taking an intelligent interest in government. I nfor
tunately citizenship and intelligence are not the same thing.
And therefore there are a score of organizations, some of
them with vast enrollments, following witch-doctors and
ghost-dancers and whirling dervishes on mad crusades of
social and economic reform, at a time when hard sense is
more badly needed than ever before in this Nation's history.
There is a chance that their efforts will cancel out. One

Save-the-Nation program will come in collision with an
other, and both will fall apart. And there is a chance that
in the near future business will be better,*and these fuzzy
wuzzy folk will have better things to do than following will
o’-wisps to Washington. A man with a real job of work
to do is poor pickings for a demagogue. A man who is at
tending to his own business hasn’t time to march in parades.
But in the meantime these scatter-brained schemes are
something serious to worry about. Their inventors are al
ready cracking the whip over Congress and the State Legis
latures. Muddle brained meddlers, led by mischief makers,
are marching on Washington and the State capitals.
Here is a reason why sensible Americans must support
with a sort of enthusiasm any practical program for the cure
of what ails the country. You may be able to find fault with
many details of the present plans for recovery and reform.
But much worse things are waiting if these plans fail.
