I SHALL NOT WANT:— The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not

A WORTHY CREED
Although it l i a s been widely published, “ The Amer
ican’s Creed,” adopted by Congress in 1919, is not as
well known to the citizens of the country as it should be.
This creed was selected through a contest, open to all
Americans, for the purpose of securing “ the best sum
mary ot the political faith of America.” The author of the
successful manuscript was Wm. Tyler Page, a descendent
of President Tyler.
The phrases composing it are taken from the Pre
amble and the Constitution of the United States, the Dec
laration of Independence, the Oath of Allegiance and
from utterances of distinguished patriots, all woven to
gether into a complete and lofty sentiment, as follows:
“ I believe in the United States of America as a Gov
ernment of the people, by the people, for the people;
whose just powers’ are derived from the consent of thé
governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign Nation
of many sovereign states; a perfect union, one and insep
arable; established upon those principles of freedom,
equality, justice and humanity for which American pa
triots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.
“ I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to
love it; to support its Constitution; to obey’its laws; to
respect its Hag, and to defend it against all enemies.”
WIDOWED, BUT A MOTHER
A mother, in Chicago, comes into court to declare
that her son did not kill his father; the killing was ac
cidental.
The son came home drunk from a “ party.”
There was a sabre in the room. There was a scuffle
over the sabre. The father is dead. The son is in jail, pre
sumably sober by this time.
The husband is dead. The son is living. The mother
is still a mother. The wife is now a widow.
She savs the son did not do it. It was an accident
Who did it f
How about the permission that was given, by each
of us, m our several ways, for this son to get drunk!
NATIONS AND WORLD RIGHTS
One of the things that is frequently forgotten in talk-!
nig of such controversies as the Egyptian questions, is
that the theory of nationality utterly prevents the hand-1
nng of the dispute in a way that fits the facts.
We have managed to reduce the most of our world!
problems to terms of “ nationality.” All the territorv of'
the world is divided among “ nations.” Nations, thus,
have definite areas. They exercise sovereign jurisdiction.
If a nation is encroached -upon, it is a violation of this
jurisdiction. And if any nationality is to be diminished
it can he legally diminished only by the aimexaton or the
conquest or the voluntary mergng of one (nation into
another.
And yet these are not the facts at all.
It is not a fact that the Suez canal is an integral part
ot the Egyptian “ nation.” It is not a fact that Sudan is
u part of “ Egypt.” It is not a fact that in handling the
Suez canal, it is necessary for the British to encroach
upon Egyptian nationality.
And yet, the people of England have no way to think
ot managing the upkeep and the safety of the canal ex
cept by controlling Egypt. And the people of Egypt have
no way of thinking about running their own affairs ex
cept by running the canal, and by running the Sudan
Each is a part of the Egyptian “ nationality.”
We have no provision for the handling of world in
terests, as such.
The world does have interests, that are separate
irom those of individual nations. We are finding that
•nit, m hitter lessons, no matter what we may think of
the league of nations, or of a world court.
The British empire, as the custodian of the Suez can
al, lias taken upon itself responsibilities, which it cannot
avoid, by any recognition of Egypt. The United States,
hv the building of the Panama canal, and by the encour
agement of trade through it, lias taken upon itself res
ponsibilities, which cannot he evaded by hiding behind
any theory ot nationality. Theodore Roosevelt knew this
when he helped in the foundation of the Panama republic
And yet it is impossible for statesmen not to think
and to act in terms of nationality. Any change from that
method of flunking will have to he accomplished slowlv.
It is in the international schools like conferences and
congresses and conventions, world courts and tribunals
that the methods of a world organization will he worked
out.
Until that time, we will have to go on bluffing about
the rights of “ nations” when we actually consider other
human rights ahead of them,

next ten years it will be used In

The telescope, fourth largest on

Yale undertook to build the
telescope when her astronom ers
indicated a desire to determ ine
the distances of more than 1,000
stars visible only in the Southern
Hemisphere, and to determ ine the
proportionate motion of a very
large num ber of faint stars.
