The civil war there bag gone on for a year, and it ia estimated it has cost a million lives to date. That's a terrible price to pay for ANYTHING obtainable on this ball of dirt. Legally speaking it represents $5,000,000,000, ss a damage claim against Old Man Mars. In human values, the total in human suffering, sorrow, and. anguish, can't., be calculated. : AND for whatf According NOTHTNOI vTbe Spanish war to date is two conflicting, forces stand twelve months ago.. . . . . But the insane slaughter is'going on.' One side is as determined as the other. It's a fight to the death.' Like two gladiators engaged in mortal combat, the end can only come when one or the other falls.' Perhaps both. ... -. . . rAT is unless there is foreign intervention, armed inter vention, to compel peace by superior force. Were the other world powers in Europe united, and CURED ENOUGH about peace, to make the sacrifice, this could be done. But they don't. 'They are factions in Spain. Germany and Italy are aiding The other nations arc sitting on to see which way .the cat is going to jump, and hoping their armies and navies will be ready In short, foreign intervention,' under such circumstances, instead' of ending the Spanish eral and' devastating European So either thator mutual exhaustion, is the only hope of peace in Europe. An appalling prospect but human life is cheap! War or TriT.HQUT a declaration of against China to get what it wants. With a superior army, and the only naval force, in the Far East, another slaugh ter, particularly in the large Chinese cities is predicted, by the experts. China has the man power, and a better army than is generally supposed, but will probably be no match for Japan, if Nippon is in earnest. And Nippon seldom is anything else. IF a poll of the world could be taken, world opinion would be practically unanimous against a continuance of the war in Spain, which threatens destruction and disaster to civilized Europe. The feeling against the conquest of China by Japan would.be almost as strong. But what has popular opinion got to do with it T Nothing, as the world is at present constituted. -As has been frequently stated In this column, until we care enough about peace to be willing to FIGHT for it, there will be no peace. ' BUT we don't care enough about it to do that. In fact the strongest sentiment in this country at the present time, is probably the sentiment to keep out of war AT ANY COST. " Let the faotions in Spain fight it out. It's none of our affair. Let Japan and China fight it out, it's their funeral" not ours.,- And if the Cbino-Jap conflict spreads throughout the Orient, and the Spauish conflict throughout tho Occident, well, let them spread I There is the Atlantic ocean on one side and the Pacific on the other. This oountry is safe. BUT is itl That's flic important point. In the short view prct-ibly, yes. But how about the long view, carrying the acceptance of war, as a method of settling differences, to its logical conclusion? That's very different. At least to one with any real under standing of what modern war is; what super-nationalism means; what a factor a nation's economic well being, is in the arousing of those passions that bring conflict. IN the long view with cars raging throughout the rest of the world, this country will be unable to keep out of them. The world, economically spesking is one, whether we like it or not. And no matter how fervently we desire peace and we do, with wars on both sides, there will be no possible way to maintain it. We will not only get into it, but public opinion would demand we get into it, and those vigorously . opposing such action, would be again rounded up and put In the concentration camps. WHICH brings us back to where we started from. When , it comes to this war business, there are only two possible views to seriously maintain. Either FAVOR war, or OPPOSE war! If you favor war, then FAVOR it, not only wheu others are involved but when you are involved. If you oppose war then oppose it, not this war or that war, but all war. F you belong to the first category, then you have nothing to worry about, not for the present at least. This country is not at war, probably won't be for some time, and when it is, well you and your family will have nothing to do when war conies but ry .the prioe for it. That's all. IF you belong to the second category then you HAVE some- thing to worry about. For you are never going to have world peace, or any approach to it, unless you and all others like you, not only in this country but all countries are willing to fight for it. And we mean just that. Fight not only for a world opinion organized against war, but backed up by a force superior to any force that can be organized against it. lo other words! an international police force, to maintain peace BETWEEN nations precisely as peace is maintained today WITHIN them. At least that's the only hope aa we s?e it. Ufivernor Saluted PORTLAND. JulV 17.

MALARIA S Southern reader says malaria Is very prevalent In his neck of the woods, and the treatment used la not very effective, for 9 many casea are or long aurauon. According to re cant ' statistics compiled by the C. S. Public Health Service more thsn 133.- 000 cases of ma lsrla ara report ed annually, and there are 431S d a a t b a.

A person can get malaria only through the agency of the Ano pheles, a genua or breed of moaqulto. Inoculation with the malaria para alt, occurs when one Is bitten oy this kind of mosquito. Malaria may be lnocultaed In other ways, accident ally or experimentally, but tbe bite of Anophelea la the only way a person can ' get . malaria naturally. Low ground, swsmp, dampneas, freshly turned earth, watermelon, the state of the liver and the purity or Im purity of the blood have nothing to do with It. No Anopheles mosquitoes, no malaria. Common Culex mosqul toles have nothing to do with It. When a Culex mosquito alights Its body la nearly parallel with the sur face. When an Anopheles mosquito alights Its body is nearly perpendicu lar to the surface. This Is a depend able way to distinguish th. malaria carrylnk mosquito from the common kind that does not carry malafla. Malarial mosqultca are pond breed ers, or a puddle or natural collection of water In the woods will do, or some atagoant water In field or swamp. They are less likely to breed about habltatlona In unscreened rain bar rels, open cisterns, old cans or other receptscles about tbe yard containing water or obstructed eaves than arc the common Culex mosquitoes, which ax. a peat but do not carry malaria. Due to Inefficient treatment many persona who have had an attack of malaria and made a partial or ap parent recovery still carry the mal arial parasites In their blood and, al tho they may not have further trouble for a considerable time they become Important factors in the spread 'of malaria mosquitoes that bit. them take along some of the parasites to Inoculate the tlie per 250 INJURED IN TRAIN DISASTER PATNA.

Mark Twain found. after many years of humping over i desk, that he could write long' er and much better relaxing in the comfort of a well-pillow ed four poster. Most creative folk think best reclining. Addi son's .better essays and gravid thoughts came when, from a sleep ing porch chaise longue, at night bo could glance from the writing Pad to the scatter of stars. Somerset Maugham wrote "Rain" stretched on a deck chair In the tropics one night. Z believe semi-tropical countries are most Ideal for writing. Such as Florida and California. Very little fine literature comes out of the Arc tic zones. Literature flowers best In sunshine. The great poets have been most Inspired In their gardens or by the seaside.

At dinner by candle glow tonight there was one of those overbearing males that seem to have become a part of New York In the past few years. He la at every gathering, brash bad-mannered and cocksure. Dlsraeu once described such a poltroon as "a sophisticated rhetorician, Inebri ated with the exuberance of his own verbosity and gifted with an egotis tical Imagination that can at a.I times command an Interminable and Inconsistent series of arguments to malign his opponents and to glorify himself." All of us know at least on 3 perhaps several. There was dinner talk, too. that ail the current dictators are teetotalers. And some of the more liberal mind ed appeared to think that was an ar gument against strict temperance. The fact Is, most dictators drank more or less until they ascended to absolute rule. Then they realized they must watch their step and the slight est flip might. mean the boot or the firing squad. The befuddlement of wine and the morning hangover do not go with grinding the will and freedom of the people Into the dust. If you don't mind my mounting the soap-box for a moment. I have been trying to lash myself Into an urge to go to Europe this summer, but I'm still apathetic, as Is my wife. I have not seen Paris for nearly three years, and even then It had begun to droop, and today those who know It well say the gloom can be cut with a dull knife. The famtHar American haunts are desert ed, the Champs Elysees Is cluttered with five and tens and cafeterias The once gay boulevards now begin to pile chairs on the tables at 10 o'clock and at midnight Montemartre calls It a day and yanks down the corrugated shutters. Berlin Is like wise lifeless at night and London, following the example of the new king. Is living quietly. New York thus has become the most exciting city In the world. New cafes, new night clubs, new plays. At least so such gadabouts as Louis Sobol tell us. New York seems, more than ever to be "vacationing" at home this summer. Mny who flitted off to the European spas, the Adirondack and coastal havens are remaining tn town. Few of those ponderous pal aces, where the butler lifts tbe port cullis to reach for the morning milk and lets down the drawbridge to put out the cat. are boarded up in tbe usual manner. No one appears to have a definite explanation as to ths why. All. I am sure, have noted an In clination among friends and ec- qualntances who used to be abustle with energy to go places and do things, to merely drift. There seems a general lassitude, a constant polite effort to stifle a universal yawn. An attitude that nothtng much matters. It might be the depleting aftermaths of a drawn-out depression, a natural let down that means nothing. Or It may mean something portentlous. At times to me It has grown a bit frightening like the growing thun der of the doom drums that attain such crescendo In Ravel's Bolero. Out of tt one thing Is certain.

Only once did Senator Barkley nurse the desire for an avocation. He thought when he waa still tn college, that It might be nice to be x writer on the aide and so he composed his first and only piece and sent tt off to the home-town paper In Paducah. It was returned with regret, and that was that. The first rung In the political lad der wasn't long In being found, and there was a foot ready to mount It He had the chance to run for county attorney. He decided that tha one way to have this Job was to go and get It, so he saddled a horse and aet out. If he missed a house In the county. It must have been a pretty dark night. He thinks he got them all. Anyhow, he got the votes of the majority and his career was begun. Mr, Barkley served four yeara as prosecutor and was elected Judge of the McCracken county court. Need less to say. he was quite ready for a national career when he was nomi nated for congress, thus skipping the roundabout path that many con gressmen have to take, the one that leads, through the state legislature. He wasn't one to take the longest way round on his way to what he was after.. His position In the Democratic party paralleled hla political career. In 1919 he was chairman of the state Democratic convention tn Louisville and tn 1934 at Lexington. He was delegate-at-large at the San Francisco national convention In 1920 and In 1934 at New York and again at Houston In 1928. Then came the Chicago affair when he was made temporary chairman. In 1927 he. was promoted from tbe house to tbe senate. He has three children, two girls and a boy. One of his daughters served as bis secretary until three years sgo. ' Senator Barkley himself has built up a wide friendship, for he la a genial personality, likes to mix with people, to take his part tn the enter tainment that Is part' of Waahlngon life. These days are busy ones for him but then all days are. His work naturally Increased while shar ing the burdens of the party leader ship with the late Senator Robinson.
