(Corvsllls Oazaette-Tlmes) The piano quartet may have s forgiving disposition, or, they may think no other convention eould be so rude, but unlcw they have and do, they will hesitate e long time before putting them selves out to be insulted again. There were a great number of people there too in the audience who were anxious to hear the quartet and who were deprived of that pleasure by those who eould appreciate nothing but their own conversation.

The officers looked smart and capable, the men husky and happy, the 150 motor trucks, spis and span; all in all, to t easual civilian wandering about, it appeared in case of hostilities, account of itself. Tet in modern warfare, a ground, and as many bombing wipe out such a unit, no doubt 1400 men killed, wounded and the official communique, under western front." For to have even the start would have to be multiplied by war, with a country like this seriously engaged, thnt total would have to be multiplied by three or four. a . v TUTS only refers to the man power problem. This one regiment, relatively speaking only a corporal's guard, on its motor march from Snn Francisco to Fort Lewis, will consume 466 dozen eggs, 388 cans of milk, 4600 pounds of meat, and 12,000 gallons of gasoline. Multiply THOSE figures by a thousand, and see what pro viding for an army of a million men means! Means in money, means in the production of food, and gas, means in the produc tion of mechanical equipment! IT not only re-emphasizes the dictum of Napoleon that an army travels on its stomach ; but more emphatically, that the effec tiveness of a modern army depends, upon industrial production, and the possession of raw materials. So one gains a clearer view of what economic sanctions COULD mean in a modern war, and more important what they could mean, in stopping a war that has started or preventing one. IT is plain now that England could have forced Italy to With draw fVnm T.tri inn!. if mhm Vio.n Tpillino To n,v fVtf price, cutting off Mussolini's supply of oil and gas, would have forced him to call off hostilities in two or three weeks. Tcs that might have meant war with Italy and perhnrs another world war. But with what is now known, of Italy's fighting spirit, against a modern army, (not a pack of un armed and half clothed natives) and of II Duce's habit of bluff nd bluster, it might have meant nothing of the sort. Prompt and courageous action by John Bull, might have prevented the armed oonqnest of Ethiopia, and lessened the probability of a world war, by cooling II Duce's militaristic ardor, for several years to come. VTOU never can tell. But this stroll around the military encampment yesterday, aroused these and other similar thoughts, in the mind of the present writer. And the total led to the conclusion, that if an overwhelming number of people in the world really WANT peace, and don't want war, there is a way peace can be attained, and during the present genera tion. It's very simple, and wouldn't cost a nickel. Here is the idea: , Let John Bull and Uncle Sara enter into a mutual agreement to join forces on land and sea, for the maintenance of world peace, and not only impose but ENFORCE economic sanctions against any country, or countries, that threaten to disturb the peace. The combined fleets of the two countries would control tho seas, absolutely. The Anglo-American control of war materials would be almost as complete, no country or group of countries could wage effective warfare, two months, with the armed forces of the English speaking countries operating natively against them. And think what that would save in lives and treasure! Great Britain might consider it, Rut this country, with that "ancient grudge" reviving, with its delight in isolation', and its morbid fear of entangling alli ances, would crush such an eflort, in an avalanche of votes, before it started ! . What Price War? OPEAKINO of war, We wonder how many people have any ides of what, the world war cost. Not only cost, but wasted. For shovelling out billions to help people and make the world a better place in which to live, is one thing; shovelling them out to kill people and destroy the world, not only for this generation hut for gen" orations to come is quite another. Well three or four years ago Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler, head of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, struck a final balance on the world war, and in substance this is what he found out: If th. I40O.0OO.0O0.OO0 which that war mt had been applied to pacific uses and betterment, It would har. built a as, 606 houM and furnished that houM with .1,000 worth of fumltur, and placed It on fire acres of land worth atOO an arm for arh and .very family In the United States and Canada, Australia, Rutland, Walea, Ireland. Scotland, Prance, Belgium. Germany, and RUMla. After dnins all thl. there would hare been enough money left to give each city of 100.000 Inhabitants and more In all the reuntrle named a IS. 000. 000 library and a 110.000,000 unlt.ralty. Then out of th. balanc there would atlll hare been suffi cient money to eet aside a sum at 6-percent Interest which would pay for all time to come a 11,000 yearly salary eaoh for an army of 135,000 teachers, and In addition to this pay the r. same aala.y to an army of 130.000 nurses. "And after having don. all this", ths report offered by Dr. Butler concluded, "we could still bar. had enough left of the i four hundred billions to buy up all of prance and Belgium, and everything of Talue that France and Belgium possessed In 1014; that Is. .rery French and Belgian fs-m. home, bank, factory, ohurch, and railroad." "In other words," as the Akron (Ohio) Beacon recent 1 declared, "the price which the leaders and statesmen of the allied nations, including the L'nited States, made the people ol the world pay for the victory over Germany was equal to the value of five countries like France plus five countries like Belgium.

There are faint Indications, too. that the most gigantic of the sky scraper flops the Empire state build ing may survive Its failure and ful fill the hones of builders. After all. Radio City turned the trick. The Empire State not only opened In tno zero of a depression, but st a time when the district In which It was built underwent s sudden change. Only the entrance fees to the tower which have steadily averaged 91.000 a day saved the promoters from locking the doors snd throwing swsy the keys. Everything thst could be done to get It going was tried, but It remained largely tenantless. In the past year, however, there hss been a gradual diminishing or empty space, and If the present pace continues, optimists hope to see It out of the red by 1045.

Comment on the Day s News By FRANK JENKINS Q? in overwhelmingly decisive vote, mJ the house of representatives passes the antl-lynchlng bill that for years has been a bone of contention in congress. The fundamental .purpose of -the bill ts to deal with negro lynchlngs In the SOUTH, although of course It Is general In Its nature and refers to lynchlngs all over the country. , If you read your newspaper care fully, you frill have noted that it was opposed bitterly by most south' era congressmen. jkTEORO lynchlngs are a southern 11 problem, arising out of the race situation that exist In ths south. No one defends them. They can't be PUBLICLY defended. But if you have followed this antl-lynchlng bill s history In congress you must be aware that for years the south has been successful In defeating FED ERAL legislation on this subject. That must indicate that there is considerable feeling on It in tne southern states. THERE Is as everyone who Is at all familiar with the south knows. The south, which has the negro on Its hands, FEARS him. Southern whites have the ingrained feeling that If the negro la to be kept from getting out of hand he must be KEPT SCARED. While It Isn't openly admitted, and would be publicly de nied, the south feels that lyncmngs help to do this. OUT here, we don't understand this situation. But neither does the east understand or sympathize with the Pacific coasts objection to admitting Japanese to this country as citizens. Each section hss its own problems, and the negro lsthesoutn's problem. THE political point Involved Is that th traditionally Democratic south has been decisively out-voted by the New Deal Democratic north on an Issue on which white public opinion In the south feels strongly. Stat rights have been over-ridden in a way that la pretty sure to csuse the south to feel that It has been in jured. Th New Desl has moved stesdiiy In the direction of concentrating gov ernmsnt la Washington and TAKiNU AUTHORITY AWAY from ths states. So far, It has been aided In this purpose by the solidly Democratic south. But this antl-lynchlng bill (witn whose purpose most northerners are In full agreement) takes away from the south tt locsl authority to nan. die a problem which southerners are Inclined to regard as one which they alone understand and are able to deal with. For that reason. It msy have tendency to shake the south s hither to unswerving support of the New Deal. BjjjijjLd (Continued from Page Ona ) Farley postmasters "who have satis factory records," that Is "sstlsfactory" to Mr, Parley. Its fate in the senate Is problemat ical. As a rule, however, senators usually leave these appointments to house members on the theory they are in closer touch with local needs. Ths real reason Is thst, for each per son mads happy by a postmasters!. lp, a dozen or so enemies are mads. Consequently, many are not loathe to give Parley this power. The official Justification Is that the bill will increase the civil service efficiency of the service. It msy, but It will also increase the political effi ciency of Mr. Parley. The Oreen craftsmen of the A. P. of L. have discovered that their foe, John Lewis, got a preferred position out of the Wagner Labor Act. They are crowding congressmen In behalf of the Dies-Walsh amendment (which they wrote) to correct the situation. A somewhat strenuous lobbying struggle is In progress backstage. It seems the Oreen men did not discover the Lewis coup until April 6, Just before the supreme court upheld the act In a surprise decision. At least they made no objection to the original wording of the act, permit ting the labor board to select either their craft unit or any other appro priate unit for collective bargaining under majority rule. They were prob ably not suspicious at that time be cause the Lewis bresk had not then developed. Now they find that the bill, which they fought for, gives the Lewis In dustrial untt a chance to outvote the smaller A. F. of L. craft units In collective bargaining elections. The Lewis units, covering a whole indus try, are naturally likely to be larger than the craft units, covering only the craft workers In each Industry. The amendment they are now pushing, the Dies-Walsh bill, would require the labor board to recognize the craft unit. It says: "In any case where a majority of the employees of a particular craft shall so decide, the board shall desig nate such craft as a unit appropriate for the purposes of collective bsr gaining." Fundamentally, It Is a struggle be tween Oreen and Lewis for control of the board, and Just now Lewis seems to hsve the edge. Congressmen have been moved by the budget situation, but not very much. The house hearings on the CCC camp appropriations, for in stance, Indicate there are still a few congressmen who prefer the printing press to the bond embossing machine. No real economy moves have been attempted. The tendency for weeks has been to sit down snd swalt de livery of President Roosevelt's revised budget estimates. Three of the ten annual appropriation bills still are in early legislative stages (agriculture. Interior and war) and only one (independent offices) has passed both houses of congress. There Is, therefore, time for econ omizing on nine-tenths of next year's appropriation bills, but th inclina tion Is lacking. Communications Is There a Finer Tree? To th.
