Join riHEIAVYN B HOFFMANN'S Hiwlery club, laifc iau Use, Mepfo: Europe, -Morally Bankrupt 'T'HB proposal by France a formed under the League retire from the Rhineland ha precedent and consistency. It has always been the contention of this paper, that the League will never be an effective force for world peace, until prompt action is taken against all violators of the covenant, and such action is backed up by force. But it is rnther late in the game to start such action now, Before withdrawing from the League, Japan violated its pro visions, by invading Manchuria, her withdrawal. In waging war against Ethiopia, Italy not only violated the League covenant, but treated the Kellogg pact as a scrap of paper. True mild sanctions were imposed against Italy by the League, because of the insistence of Great Britain, but France joined in them, reluctantly; and for several months has been doing everything in her power to bring about their abandon ment and give JIussolini a free hand in eastern Africa. Under such circumstances it is inconsistent, to say the least, for France to demand, not only sanctions, hut League military action, against Germany, for doing merely what two other world powers, had done before her, without France as a member of the League advocating any drostro action whatever. NOT that three wrongs make a right, but France by this hpinred action lavs h.rself rtnen tn tha rharcre. that .he i& motivated, not by any love for world peace, nor any high regard for the sanctity of the League covenant, but solely and ex clusively, by her own selfish interests. France fears Germany and with reason. The Hitler occu pation of the Rhineland, is a threat to her national security. She does not fear Italy, in fact in case of war in Europe, she would look for help from Mussolini. She regards her African colonies as secure, regardless of what Italy does to Ethiopia. Neither does she fear Japan, for the conquest of Manchuria and the penetration of China, does not jeopardize her vital interests there. Yet as far as the League is concorned, the principles in volved are the same. In fact a better case eould be made out for Germany, than for Italv or ' uniiieiRna aid noi involve conuursi or me mvHsion 01 hmuiiut country, but. merely the extension nf military control to Ger many's national border. Therefore in demanding allied military action against Ger many, the position of France is a weak one. She demonstrates that, as far as the sanctity of treaties is concerned, it. is with her entirely a question of "whose baby has the measles." TOT thnt this shows France to be in any sense exceptional, ' Nor does it provide any excuse for Germany's violation of the Locarno pact. in our judgment both a moral wrong, and a colossal diplomatic blunder. But it does reveal the depressing truth, that as far as ab stract morality is concerned, the countries of Europe are all pretty much alike, when one aocuses another on moral grounds, it is just a case of the potcalling the kettle black. In the last analysis all of them are actuated by just one thing, their own selfish interest. They may prate about the glories of peace and the horrors of war, the sanctity of treaties, and the iniquities of violating them but let any impartial searcher for the truth, dig beneath this camouflage of self" righteousness, and the same sinister, cynical and selfish forces will be found, at work in all the foreign chancellories, bent upon advancing their own interests regardless, and getting theirs while the getting is good. Not a pretty picture, but the sincere advocates of world peace, and a better international order, are merely deluding and kidding themselves if they refuse to face it For as long as self interest and only self interest rules the governments of Europe, war is as inevitable, as the rising of the sun tomorrow. Treaties of peace, pacts of peace, engrossed preachments about peace, will never be more than scraps of paper, until there is a genuine SPTHTT of peace behind them. (Continued from rage One) generally on the Inside that It has become a general expectation. Some skeptics will want to wait until they see It. It may mean a fairly good hill, al though It will not raise anything like the eeoo.000.000 of additional revenue which the president demanded. The increase proposed in the cor porate tax reform haa been concealed by the fact that tne tax la being transferred from the corporation to the Individual. That makes compari sons difficult. Internal Revenue Commissioner Helverlng let the cat out one day when he testified that the new pro posed tax would he equivalent to a flat tax of 9At percent on corpora tions. The average corporation In come tax now. Including the capital stock tax Is IS 4 percent. Thus corporation taxation under the proposed plan would have ben boost ed to a level higher than In Great Britain, supposedly the highest taied nation In the world. In Great Brit ain the corporation tax la 33 per cent, a reduction from the high point of 3ft percent. , No tax bllt waa ever conMdered un der circumstances more unusual than this one.

William Brady, JflA El Camlno, THE DOG Southern attorney says a bill pro poaad for passage in Tennessee would tax all dogs In one county $2 a year and ell bitches 4. The dog tax graft would be administered b y s county com- m 1 a a 1 o n e r of health, who never attended medical school (ears the at tor ney through his Ufertock I rupee tor, a layman who nerer at tended a veterl nary school. Well, lots of people who never at tended medical school or veterinary school sre very good at chasing dogs, determining ownership of the stray animals, snd collecting the damages from the owners. Another thing, the grave business of collecting the dog tax brings the police to one's door ones a year, when they are checking up to find out whether anybody without a real stand-In haa neglected to contribute to the dog graft fund. Were It not for the dogs the police never would get sround to some parts of the city, The correspondent Implies that the humane purpose or the ostensible purpose of the proposed dog graft In the un-named county of Tennessee is to promote universal vaccination of dogs against rabies. Without dragging In or evading my own agnosticism regarding the occur rence of rabies In man, I may say that until some one discovers the na ture and cause of rabies In animals. or Isolates the responsible organism. It Is something less than a noble ex periment and perhaps more than an Imposing gesture to pretend you can """"J or PT "" Jn m mala by vaccinating all animals. Th The mere expense of such a practice Is fsr too grest to Justify It, In the present state of uncertainty about the nature and cause of rabies tn snlmals. The lawyer asks me what the au thorities say about this. What Is an authority? Probably the majority of health of ficers would endorse some such prac tice, of taxing dogs and enforcing universal vaccination of dogs against rabies. I should not know where to turn to find a physician or health author ity to agree fully with my view of the question of rabies in man, though X know a good many medical men hove their doubts about It. NEW YORK DAY BY DAY By O. 0. Mclntyre NEW YORK, April 8. There la fascination about those nsmes that makes us wonder If they are patents of nobility or Just names. Buch, for Instance as King Vldor, Duke El lington, Baron Wilkes. Print Blederman and P3 Marquis Chllds. To say nothing of the double header, Don Mar q u 1 s. Or Rex Stout. Perhaps best of all Is Harold Lord Varney, a magazine editor. There Is an almost uncontrollable Impulse to place a comma after hla first name. There la an office boy on Hampton's named King Royal. But It Irked. He thought It too regal and vhen 91 had It changed to James Smith, But the fascination of nmes la not confined solely to those suggesting the pomp of thrones. Among those expi-erslng unusual dignity to me are Keats Speed, Viator Herbert, Corne lius Vanderbllt, Richard Harding Davis and Meredith Nicholson. And one might suspect Edna St. Vincent Mil lay named herself. The most amusing of the celebrity names, X think. ! that of the erudite editor of The Nstlon Joseph Wood Krutch. Either he lacks humor or has an abundant supply co so sign his articles. Men with talent, how ever, can give gusto to ridiculed names. Percy Crosby and Perey Ham mond, for example. Paul Whit ems n Is having anothtr finish fight with avoirdupois. Hav ing shucked down to the proper thin ness, he began to bresk training and Indulge a few of the dishes he craved. Now and then, too. he took on sev eral beakers of his favorite brew and before he knew it was some 40 pounds heavier.

Address Beverly Hills, CsL TAX GRAFT Authorities who believe rabies does occur In man assert that many other animals besides dogs are subject to the disease, both domestic snd wild animals. What tax on skunks, wea sels, squirrels, bats, coyotes, cats, horses, cows, pigs snd sheep? Shall we exempt these various possible car riers from vaccination Viewing the question from every side I am constrained to give It as my opinion that the moving force behind the proposal to tax all dogs and vaccinate them Is the desire for petty graft. QUESTION ASM ANSWERS Hair Dye Would It be ssfe to use any kind of hair dye or restorer two months after an operation? Is metallic salt inju rlous to health In any way? (Mrs. B. E. T.) Answer. There 1s no such thing as a "restorer." The operation has no bearing on the question of the use of hair dye. If the dye contains no poison. It Is safe to use. I do not know what metallic salt you refer to. Monograph on Care of the Hair avail able U you Inclose with your request a atamped envelope bearing your ad dress. Cutting Teeth Last summer my two-year-old son fell snd broke one of his front teeth In half, and now It Is decayed, as are two of his molar teeth. Please tell me If I could or should have any dental work done on such a young child's teeth? Will he get a new set of teeth when he is six years old? (Mrs. M. W.) Ans. Yes, by all means have the dentist treat the baby teeth. The child will cut his first permanent molara at about the age of six yeara. and the first permanent Incisors or front teeth at about 7 or 8 years. But the soundness or regularity of the permanent teeth depend on how well the primary or milk teeth are preserved. That's why the dentist should treat them now. Fresh and Storage Please advise Just what difference there Is between a fresh egg and cold storage egg, so far as health and nutritive values go. Is prejudice not a large factor? (A. C.) Ans. Probably the fresh laid egg contains more vitamins than the egg few weeks old. Otherwise there Is no significant difference. (Copyright, 1936, John P. DUle Co.) Ed.

And among the edible nick-nack evanlshments In Manhattan Is the portable popcorn stand that used to dot many corners. There was one In Broad street to which the elder Mor gan sent oflce boys. There were many In the theatrical none of Broadway. Chorus girls were popcorn addicts, as were gamblers. The World once told of Diamond Jim Brady on way from a play, buying out a severs 1-bushel supply from a stand In front of the Normandle. He circled the park In a Victoria until he had downed It. Then went on to Rector's for his mid night stoke. Today, I do not know of a single popcorn stand tn mid town and only one place Maty Eliza beth's to procure popcorn balls. There was a chsrscter who used to haunt the bars called Pop Corn Bill. Irvln Cobb glorified him in a Satur day Evening Post folloatlon. Bill's capacity for popcorn Inspired many bets. He could polish off one of those huge bowls there waa one In every bar filled to overflowing, without turning a hair. And his capacity for liquor was Just as outstanding. But he died one day after a performsnce In the Martinique bar. And Frank O'Malley, aa you might imagine, did grand "obit" for him In the Sun. They were talking about the ad vent of the gas stove.

The paper waa given to him In Philadelphia, oa March 10, 1876. by Colonel Forney, and he haa had It In hla posMialon ever alnce. JEFF RIDDLE la the author of "The Indian History of the Modoc War," compiled from Indian sources and written from the Indian view point. It la a fascinatingly Interest ing book. At the time this old newspaper wsa given to him. he waa lecturing In Eastern cities with Col. A. B. Mea cham. whose life was saved by Wl nema'a warning. Colonel Meacham waa also the author of a book on the Modoc war. THERE Is no great and thrilling newa in thla century-old paper. but It la full of sidelights that are now Interesting because of their con tract with present tlmea. For example, there la an advertise ment of the People's Line of Cara and Buses, with headquarters at Broad and Arch street. In Philadelphia (where the street goes under the arch In the building, aa you will remember If you have been there). The advertisement has a picture of the ancient steam englnea and pas senger ears then used (looking more like a stagecoach than a passSiger car) and guarantees to transport travelers from Philadelphia to Pitts burgh In not more than two and one-half DAYS, which was evidently considered pretty good time. Airplanes now make It In less than that number of hours. WE lesrn. also, that the brig Ark had Just arrived In New York from London, bringing to thla then new land 1788 bags of wheat, 800 baga of oats and 3700 barrels of flour. That waa about equivalent, one would say, to ahlpplng peara to Med ford In these days. rIS related (In another advertise ment) that beef Is to be had tn a stall In the public market for 35 centa per pound. The cost of Hying, one would Judge, wasn't a great deal lower a century ago than now, In spite of all we hear to the contrary. THERE Is a story of a gentleman who was treated for a fever, be ing told by the doctor that his fever added greatly to hla thirst and that he would be wise to be abstemious with Intoxicants. He told the physician: "You look out for the fever, and I'll take care of the thirst." THEN there Is an account of the ad-entures of John xtnmn genteel-looking ctllun who waa ob served by the police while not acting very genteelly" and ordered him home. He didn't go. so they put him In the Jug and fined him. Boys would be boys, even In those dsys. It apepara. And the police were hard-boiled, then aa now. (Nothing la said, however, about raising a defense fund for John, and Invoking In hla behalf every techni cality and delay in the book In the hope of finally getting him off with out paying the penalty of his ungen teel misdeeds. We've developed quite few new wrinkles of our own In the psst century). IT'S an Interesting old psper, snd the thsnks of this writer are due to Jeff Riddle for his thoughtfulness In bringing It In.
