Delay at London
THERE can. be no doubt that the forced change in the
French cabinet is causing the irksome delay in the nego
tiations of the naval parley at London. France has in fact
held the key to the situation so far as naval problems are
concerned. The French demands while intimated in advance,
threw cold chills down the backs of the other delegations
when they were finally made. For the magnitude of the ton
'liage;sought by France if allowed would virtually institute
a big construction program rather than a limitation of reduc-
tion of naval armaments. England regards the French de-
niands as a threat against her own power on the seas. Then
Italy comes in with demands for parity with France. The
situation is -thus poised in delicate balance.
It is in just this situation that the naval parley found
itself when the Tardieu ministry was forced out of office
and a new French cabinet formed. The feeling is general
however that the new Chautemps government will be short
lived. It is also made clear that the change will have no ef
fect? on the French demands at London. That is no doubt
truej but it does make unstable the business of negotiating.
It is hard for delegates to discuss problems of such import
ance only to find the . confreres changed over night.
France has put forward as an alternate to an augmented
navy, a security pact covering the Mediterranean basin. This
is the characteristic role of France. Ever since the world war
she has been trying to obtain security pacts. She tried hard
to convert Pres. Wilson to committing the Unit-r! States to
some guaranty of protection for France. Her c nstant en
deavor in the field of diplomacy has been for an alignment of
allied powers to underwrite French security on the continent.
The purpose of the Little Entente of central European pow
ers is to give France an eastern ally. Now the proposed Med
iterranean pact is intended to give her security in another
possible storm center.
It is evident that the European powers, no matter how
ardently they may talk, about world peace, and no matteri
ji . ami l. i I
now many peace pacts iney may sign, sua mm, m terms 01
alliances and balance of poVer. The new ideals of world
peace seem to be forgotten when it comes to dealing with
cards on the green tables of international diplomacy which
still has the old world setting.

BITS for BREAKFAST
By R. J. HENDRICKS
with
ISfew Styles in the Senate
A DISCONSOLATE although discerning view of the de-
XTl cline of the United States Congress in "capability and in
dividuality" is that expressed by Samuel G. Blythe, veteran
political observer in the current issue of the Saturday Eve
ning Post.
Confessing the prejudices of age, Mr. Blythe is yet" in
sistent that "the present aggregation that operates on Cap
itol Hill . . . was once'a great but now is a mediocre Senate.
He adds that the present class of senators shows "a marked
deterioration in ability, force, statesmanship, intellectual ca
pacity, and high political acumen.'
As Blythe calls the roll of those great names of yesters
year his lament is increased. The giants of the days gone by
to Blythe include such men as Aldrich of Rhode Island, an
example of partisan leadership, "clean-cut, vigorous, partisan
and ruthless. There was Allison of Iowa, "suave, pervading
and conciliatory.' Piatt of Connecticut; Morgan of Ala
Jbama; Beveridge of Indiana; the late Senator Warren of
Wyoming. These and other distinguished names are passed
in review as the writer recalls the distinction of the days
gotfe by.
The reason for this deluge of mediocrity of the present,
according to Blythe, is the direct election of senators. Vote
, getters rather than great men are now in the upper house.
Instead of representing a group of "olden statesmen", men
rising above sectional class and petty prejudice,-the senate,
like its contemporary, the house, has become entirely reflec
tive of its home constituents; a place of mass production
rather than a seat of individual assertion.
Behind the glistening story of the good old days' which
Mr. Blythe recalls, there are aspects of the old senate not re
counted. Boies Penrose of Pennsylvania was both pictur
esque and powerful but his policies were not always to be
admired. Mark Hanna may have made McKinley but the
country rebelled against such domination. Thomas C Piatt,
the "Easy Boss" of New York state politics, ruled with an
iron, hand if it was a smooth one. Nelson W: Aldrich, who
served from 1881 .to 1911, headed a domination absolute and
invincible and based on extreme partisanship.
The case for or against direct election of senators is not
all in. Admitting the general drabness of today's senate, it
is still to be questioned if it does not even in muddlmcr fash
ion and without the flow of wit, come as close as its prede-
A . Aft M il 7 ' MM
cessors to iuncuomng ior ine pudiic weau ine very
strength of the old-time boss produced his weakness. The
most salient observation of Mr. Blythe -is the one that the
theory of the original senate has been changed; it is no long
er, ah aggregation of elder statesmen; it is a second edition
of the house. v.
A Veteran Editor Passes
mHE host of friends of J. S. Dellinger, late editor of the
JL Morning Astonan, will be shocked to learn of his sud
den demise Sunday morning. Stricken with heart failure, he
died at his country home near Astoria. Mr. Dellinger was a
veteran editor. He had made a life career of the newsnaner
business, having started at the age of 16. He published pap
ers in the middle west, in the Northwest and in Alaska. A
fine, upstanding, vigorous editor, he was a valiant contender
for the causes which he espoused. He was especially vigilant
in safeguarding the interests' of the lower Columbia country
- and his home city of Astoria. Every effort thai looked to
ward development there received his cordial Rurmort.
The writer called on Mr. Dellinger last Friday evening
and had a very pleasantvisit with him in his office at the
Astorian plant. He was then apparently in good health. Sat-
urdayeveniEg ce called at the Motel Gearhart and planned
to entertain at his home at Dellmoor av large- eroun from
Portland and other places who were spending the week-end
. at Gearhart. The word that came next morning of his death
was a distinct shock. '
- . After all, it was a fine way for a man of the character
and vigor of Mr. Dellinger to die. He worked up to the last
carrying a full man's load of responsibility and of labor
: and then, all was over. His .load shifts to other shoulders, his
editorial pen if broken. But the memory of fcla life and work
Mrw live on.

TRACEDTO REAL ILLS
Dont Blame Environmeiit or Heredity for Fits of

Usually "Due to Physical or Blental Causes.
By ROYAL S. COPELAND, II. D.
United States Senator from New York.
Former CoumiuUmer of Health, Nevt York CUf.
WE are inclined to blame the moods we have upon our environ
ment. If we don't do this wo lay them to something we think
-we may have inherited. Yet the chances are they come from
some physical cause.
What wo do inherit Is an over-sensitiveness
of the nervous system. Or, going deeper into
the cause, there may be some lack of harmony
in those wonderful glands of the body, the "endo
crine Elands."
These glands, called glands of "internal se
cretion," play a large part in the development
and nutrition of a child. It is particularly im
portant that they do their good deeds before the
age of fourteen. -
The mind does its work from a nest of
nerve cells. When these nerve cells are out of
order then one's attitude toward life is not quite
normal
When the nervous system goes wrong, then
some sort of nerve disorder appears. Some such
troubles are lasting, but thousands of them can
b corrected by physical and mental measures.
. in taese cases, one mood follows another.
There may be great depression, when all the world looks black. Then
the spirits rise, in high excitement over some happening which makes
an impress on the emotions. Sometimes they begin with great fatirue.

reactions are set up which causa
