; Pressure is lioinpr lmtinlit tipnn the president lo force hiinj
to reverse liis decision to delay the constniction of three i
cruisers on this .vearV. proKram. The liitf-nuvy men in eon-'
gress have branded the suspension as illegal, hut it is not!
likely that -they will whip the chief executive into a right-;
iibout-face. What President Hoover wants is not abandon-'
ment of the cruiser constniction program hut its suspension
until a disarmament conference determines how large the
navies of tomorrow will he. Having the support of a con-,
siderable body of public opinion, he is in a position of obtain-i
ing that delay. KxecuWve discretion is a convenient weapon
in his hands ;4 this moment. ;
Across the wide spaces of a continent there rise new towers,
i i with beacons flashing and turning by night to light the
jj highways of the air. They are lighthouses of the land, sym
n bols of a new age and tiail markers for unimagined things
to come. Their .swinging beams across the sky of night tell
iv of an ancient dream come true in our time. They are but
JJ towers ufistcutatntl lamps of gleaming gla!;s. Vet awakened
imagination is stirred by tli'-ir solitary lights, thrust through
j' darkness and storm to guide sky-sailing- ships. Men trust
p. their lives and fates lo machines and devices they have
'' created, and thereby these things themselves become as
though they lived and had a share in the woild's bold lui.si-
licss. Romance today attends on machines and follows the
'- swift steeds of steel and the ships of sea and air. These
Hi new lighthouses of the laud are eloquent witnesses to a
JJJj romance of the age we live in, telling of victories hard won,
of present pmgress and of wonders to come.

Scientists who have made a study of population piob-
lems are disposed to believe that there is a saturation point
j in the population of the I 'idled Stales which will be reached
I-" about the year UIHXi, when deaths will balance births. The
