DES MOINES, (By Mail) —
America will suffer a loss of idealism
in the future because of the prom
inence given to huge salaries and
fees paid to movie stars, prize fight
ers and baseball players, according
to Clarence Hamilton, of Boston.
“Modern heroes as pictured in the
newspapers and magazines are not
very desirable characters for our
boys and girls to emulate,’’ said Mr.
Hamilton. “Practically all of them
are placed upon a money-making ba
sis. Character and achievement count
for little with them. The Prize
fighter who can deliver a punch-to
knock his opponent senseless is giv
en many headlines before and after
the effective punch is delivered and
for that punch he gets several for
tunes. besides notoriety which passes
in our day for fame. Likewise the
movie stars who can go through
some capers and simulate virtues
which they do not possess, are her
alded as great men and women be
cause they attract buyers of tickets
to box-offices. The Same is true of
baseball players.
“Boys and girls and young men
and women who emulate these weak
lings, termed and pictured as her
oes and heroines, are building on
sahd. The real heroes and those who
are contributing to our physical and
mental and spiritual well being.
They hould be lauded and emulated.
The value of their work can not be
appaised with the dollar sign. The
idealism of America will suffer if the
false standards of value are accept
ed by a large proportion of our
American youth.
The smallest country in South
America, Uruguay has a larger area
than Holland. Denmark, Switzerland
and Belgium combined.
