In St. Louis they put a cow in the Zoo!
"It's a waste of money," many said. "Every

BUT DO THEY?
We'll make a rough guess that there are
thousands of children in large cities who have
never seen a cow and there are dozens of
local families who pass this store every day
without knowing the strength of this organi

UNDER WAY ON
PEACE PLAN
(Continued from page 1)
that tlie United Slates collaborate
with other Powers toward revision
of International law.
As provided for in conditions of
the award, the winning plan was:
devoted partly to argumentation
in support of Us underlying prin
ciple.'. Chief among the. hypotheses ad
vanced were that there cannot be
more than ono organization to pro
mote world peace and that the
League of Nations as now consti
tuted comprises the most logical
nucleus for such effort because of
extent of its present membership.
"Klve-slxths of all nations, includ
ing four-fifths of mankind" al
ready belong to this organization,
it was pointed out, and "thoso na
tions cannot and will n-A abrndon
this system, which has been active
ly operateing for more than three
ycarc.
Now Participates. ' '.
It Is argued, further, that the
JTnUcd States already hns taken
many steps towards co-operating
with the League, being now repro
sentcd either officially or unoffi
cially on many League commis
sion:'. After endeavoring to establish
this premise the author asks:
"How can increasing co-opcratlon
between th I'nited States and the
organized, world be .secured7" An
swering the question the author de
dares that extension of American
participation In other of the
League's social welfare activities
1m both feasible and compatible
with present policies.
Following a resume of interna
tional activities in which further
participation of this country Is
urged. It is frankly admitted that
eventually the I'nited States must
meet definitely the issue of actual
meniliershiit h the league, thus:
They (American policies) do
not Involve a question of member
ship In tho League of Nations as
now constituted, but It cannot be
denied that they lead to the thresh
old of (hat question. Any further
step toward co-opcratlon must con
front tho problem of direct rela
tions between the 1'nltcd States
and the assembly and council
fifty-four nations in the league."
a lootnote slates that fifty-seven
Maics, including Germany, are
members of the International 1-a-
bor Organization of the Loague,
and I hat there are "about sixty
live independent states In tlu
world."
Kurt her argument is devoted to
expounding the proposition that
many characteristics of the league
as orglnally conceived havo been
mollified until they are less objec
tionable from the American view-
potnl; that the Intent of the league
in. clearly, to recognize leadership
of tho rolled States In the West
ern Hemisphere, and that co-oper
alion of the UnHed Slates, is in-
It isn't absolutely necessary to
know much about etiquette If you
