f v ? A foreign service unsurpassed by any other nation is the
object of a bill in Congress v i -
- 1 A foreign service that will be our first line of i defense
and our advance guard of commercial expansion. .
It is the "dollar diplomacy" of the McKinley administra
tion, with a college education;, organized; made effective.
The bill reclassifies and reorganizes diplomatic and con
sular offices. It puts the two services under one head and
one roof the1 foreign service.' All below the grade of am-
hoassador and minister are to be Jcnown as "foreign service
j of fleers," from the entering Class 9 for young men, at $3,000,
! to Class l; at $9,000 per annum. ?; ':: i
I." "x The measure proposes to -make the service sufficiently
attractive to draw the best talent in this country to it as a
permanent career ; to jnake it democratic ; to humanize it.
The measure has the support of the President, the Sec
f retary bf State, the United States Chamber of Commerce,
! and many other organizations. ! i - :
; The attitude of mind in' this country that has been dis
posed to let foreign relations slide' is passing. , It will have
well nigh disappeared a decade hence. .
"We jnust not become internationalized; we cannot be
come insulamed;" this sentiment is being expressed gener
ally throughout the country now". And there is a growing
knowledge of the fact that the danger of our country becom
ing internationalized has not at any time been either real or
imminent.. .. ..:-:- M - j-. .
' , The United States is approaching the tidal flood of com
mercial competition. False lights and deluding buoys are
on every hand to lure the Ship of State upon the rocks. The
nets of international intriguers are spread to enmesh the
propellers. I The "Red" rats (walk the hawsers whenever the
good Ship docks. The pharos of amity and true cooperation
"is occasionally discernible. The "Red", the wecker, and the
. intrigant inuat be spotted. j The friend and ithe competitor
should be signalled. A high-power foreign service is the
. searchlight for the job. The bill presents specifications for
the Twentieth Century; model. With a trained body of men
;;and .women for Qurrforeign service, co-ordinated anJ working
an harimony, every American interest 1 in all the nooks and
. corners of the world will have watchful care and there
could be no greater, force for mutual understandings and
peaceful solutions. . . j !
' The "voters of Illinois hare, de
feated 'the proposed new constitution."-
It is mighty hard to
change the constitution of. either
a 'state or an Individual.

some of the lighter work ot mak

be transferred to the other insti

; CHANGE OF HEART
Mussolini is not much of a-So
cialist now. His former opinions
seem to have been vastly' amend
ed through circumstance. He is
in mood for a dictatorship. It
peems odd that when Socialists
gather a little power they drift
naturally Into autocraey, which
is as far removed from true So
cialism as night varies from day.
Lenin was once a champion of
equality and popular rights. Now
he Is a dictator trying to make
terms with capitalists'. , :v
