Proverbs .18: 24.' - ' s OBSTACLES TO PEACE Back of the difficulties which lie in the road of the dis armament conferees lies the simple fact that the ordinary citizen" of the world doesn't know what he really wants. : Between .mankind and the achievement of a fair degree of disarmament there are only intangible obstacles; such things as suspicion, prejudice and misunderstanding. And all of these, if you examine them, trace Lack to our inability to fix on a .common goal. On the' surface, no such inability exists. Ask any man, in any land, what ho wants his government to give him and he will (reply that he wants prosperity, order, security, a chance to get and hold a decent job, make a decent living and bring up his children in conditions, that wil) ensure the same things for them when they are grown. . Simple, isn't it? But it isn't hard to demonstrate that we don't rea)y want those tilings at all; or, if we do, we take some extermely peculiar ways of going after what we want. It is perfectly clear by this time, for instance, that no nation can jtruly "win" a prolonged war under modem condi tions. The loser is doomed to certain revolution, chaos and 'long drawn-out- misery; the victor has more than a' fair chance of getting all of those things, and even if he misses them he is bound to get unemployment, recurring tides of deflation and inflation, economic distress am' political dis turbance. You can hardly find a man who will not admit the truth of that statement, And if that statement is true, it follows inescapably that war is (he surest of all ways for the ordin ary man to lose all of those things that he most desires. Yet we refuse to take the definite steps which will remove the danger of war." We admit that these" things may be true, Due we insist that we must have large armies and navies so mat it war does come we can'be the victors. Since all of us Americans, British, French, Germans and Japanese feel the same way, we go whirling merrily.along toward new wars and the destruction of our fondest hopes. If we really want the things that we say we want, we shall make a complete success of the disarmament confer ence. The trouble is that We aren't as desirous of those things as we think we are.

Every man from The Dalles succumbed to nausea while live La Granders Andrews. Cnrev. Glenn, Brlggs and Runynn kept their breakfasts where they belonged. The company Is stui chuckling about what difficulties the others encoun tered along the rail. Captain Troy D. Walker, of Baker, also made the trip and was as sick as any of them. One man from The Dalles caught a fish but there Is still argument as to whether it was a sea bass or a rock cod. American League w: Washington New York Philadelphia . Cleveland ...'.. Chicago J.

THE GOLD CLAUSE When the United States went off the gold- standard an interesting question arose as to payment o various federal bonds which provided, that payment should be made in' gold coin of a certain weight and fineness. To solve the difficulty President Koosevelt requested and congress has promptly enacted a statute providing that the payment of. these obligations may be made in any money or currency which is legal tender. This means that holders of these bonds cannot insist, upon gold. There have been some who severely criticized this provi sion. Senator Carter Glass, Virginia, says it is "rank re pudiation" and others confidently predict that the United States supreme court will declare the act unconstitutional as an impairment' of contract. ' ' From a practical standpoint, however, there is much to be said to support- the presidential viewpoint. To insist that these particular, obligations should Imj paid in one kind of money while all others could be paid otherwise is to allow a certain class of creditors a privilege not enjoyed generally. 1'residont Koosevelt believes that the welfare of the Ameri-! can people as a whole is superior to any right enjoyed by a! few. . j The power of money has always exerted its influence uixn j national affairs. "Due process of law" and "sanctity of con-' tract have often leen used to prevent financial and economic ' changes necessary with the altered conditions of a new day. i The holders of governnx.Mil obligations should l patriotic and submit to necessary alterations, reflecting that it will be far I Ixjtter to assist the government than to have no government, j The world may be facing economic difficulties but the good ! .,U i ... .. in i . i uiu auiuuivr uinu win mm .many youny ieopie lclU?vinx that two can live as cheaply as one.
