A New Deal With Japan
IF Secretary of State Hull, were a reader of the Mail Tribune
we mitfht claim some credit for his recent note to Japan. For
in this column a few weeks ago, we suggested a "New Deal"
be declared in international relations, and in this note the Roose
velt administration -ertainly takes ft step in that direction.
But we fail to fi.id the Honorablo Secretary's name on our
subscription list, and fear that the pearls of wisdom dropped
from the editorial pen, were not viewed in quarters further east
than Butte Falls. So the best we can do is to MODESTLY
maintain, that great and little minds sometimes run in the samo
channel, and let the matter go at that I
rPHIS last note, however, IS in marked contrast to the first
one, upon which the editorial in question, was based. That
first note, completely ignored the realities of the situation, and
engaged in a lot of meaningless generalities and Alphonse
Gaston gestures, reflecting the samo mood in the affectionate
and peace loving communique from Tokio.
The burden of the entire interchange was nothing more
than,
"God's In Hli heaven;
All's right with the world I"
. When everyone, including the principals participating, knew
that such was not the case, in fact they knew the very reverse
to bo true that ol' man "Debbil" and all his imps including
the munition magnates were very busy in the Far East, and are
today.
APAN followed this up with some more old fashioned diplo-
u macy. OFFICIALLY Japan did nothing; but unofficially
it set a bomb under the world, and lighted the fuse !
This was in the shape of a "trial balloon ', serving notice on
the rest of the world, that they keep their hands off China. The
open door was not only closed, it was closed with a bang. Not
officially, my no but the Japanese foreign office was, it
appears, considering such a proposition, presented to it from
some unknown source I .
Every foreign office in the world and every well informed
person knew just what that MEANT. They knew the "unof
ficial" angle was the most transparent camouflage, that the
ultimatum proceeded directly from the foreign office and was
sanctioned by it. The "unofficial" was merely a smoke screen
to cover a face-saving retreat, if the trial balloon didn't do so
well on the other hand the "unofficial" would become "offi
cial" if it didn't do so badly.

This seems to be what some of the
juries need, once the criminal Is

Itself has the pungent odor of chlorln
which many laundry patrons rather
enjoy as a "clean" odor It Is a fairly
gotxt deodorant as well as a dlsln
fectant. This same solution Is also
a good bleach. "Bleaching powder"
Is another common name for fresn
chloride of lime.
This same chloride of lime (other
wise called chlorinated lime) Is some
times used as a medicine, from one
to five grains of the fresh chloride
being the usual dose.
A solution of a teaspoonful of the
fresh chloride of lime in a pint of
water makes a good disinfectant
mouthwash, Infinitely better as an
antiseptic wash or gargle thsn any of
the common nostrums so much ex
ploited for the purpose. Only
freshly opened can of chloride of lime
la suitable for making such a mouth
wash or gargle.
Tourists, campers or others who
wish to make certain the drinking
water la ssfe may add one-half tes-
spoonful of fresh chloride of lime to
one pint of water. One teaspoonful
of this Is sufficient to disinfect or
purify 10 gallons of water; or 36 drops
for one gallon; or 9 drops for one
quart. For convenience or for the
emergency kit "tableta of a chlorln
compound" may be carried for disin
fecting questionable drinking water,
though they are effective only when
fresh.
The use of chloride of lime for
purifying water tends to Increase the
hardness of the water. But chlorin
ated soda may be used Instead (It
Is more expensive than the chlorin
ated calcium) and this tends to make
the water softer. Chlorinated soda
solutions have been and still aro
much used In surgery as antiseptic
or disinfectant solutions for Irrigat
ing wounds.
Javelle water was a solution of
chlorinated lime and chlorinated pot
ash. Labarraque a solution waa chief
ly sodium hypochlorite (chlorinated
soda.) Dnkin'a solution, much tout
ed at the time of the World war but
not used now, was chiefly chlorin
ated soda, too.
Municipal water supplies are com
monly purified by the addition of
chlorln In one way or another. Chlo
ride of llmo has been much employ-
haps automatlo treatment with chlor

popular. If the water Is polluted with
industrial waste (phenols) the reac
tion of thla harmless chemical with
the chlorine producea a disagreeable
"medicine" taste. It Is difficult to
correct this unless the discharge of
Industrial wastes Into the water can
be stopped.
While the fresh chlorinated lime
might be used to disinfect a well or
cistern, a better way la to dump half
a barrel of fresh burnt lime (builder's
lime) In, stir up the water, scrub
down the walls with the milk of llmo,
then pump out, clean, and allow the
well or cistern to refill, This may be
repeated Immediately If any lime re
mains In the water. If the chlorin
ated lime process Is preferred, esti

and use a teaspoonful of the solution
above described for each 10 gallons.

This is what" Secretary Hull did. Hero is his answer:
Treaties can lawfully be modified or bo terminated only by
processes prescribed or recognized or agreed upon by the parties
to them.
In the International associations and relationships of the
United States, the American government seeks to be duly con
siderate of the rights, the obligations and the legitimate Inter
ests of other countries, and it expects on the patt of other gov
emmenta due consideration of the rights, the obligations and
the legitimate Interests of the United States.
To those not familiar with diplomatic language that may
sound extremely inoffensive and mild. It is of course on the
surface. Even declarations of war arc politely worded.
But it's DYNAMITE underneath.
For it means that if Japan pursues its policy of "Hands off
China", denies all foreign trado with that country, that It does
not FIRST sanction, in short insists upon going "Boserk",
Undo Sam will oppose her, unci uphold the sanctity' of tho
treaties which she has signed.
r0ES that mean wart Not necessarily, certainly not until
the people of this country feel very differently about war
with Japan or any other country than they do now.
But it docs mean that tho United States takes the leadership
of the white world in opposing Japanese aims in China, Asia
and tho Far East. The die in that direction at least, is cast.

In her bathing cap, which was rather

On the other bank, she met a sheep
herder, and paused to talk a moment.

she took the dress from her cap,
slipped it on over her swimming
clothes and started out. Just then

only in a bathing suit.

Deserted long ago
What prayers
Were thine to learn? To know? .
What prayers to keep?

Asleep hast thou been. v
What loves

Thy heart lies deep.

Thou canst
Not tell of love, of tears.
Resume thy sleep.
