merce, and the bulk of these exports went to Europe. In normal times the value of condensed milk sold abroad varies between $1,000,0OO and $2,OOO,00 and ordinarily the best cus- toners are Cuba, Panama, China and Mexico.
 The increased exports of condensed milk to Europe are easy to explain, under the circum stances, but there has been an increase in imports from Eu- rOpean countries that is puzzling. Italy's recent participation in the American trade has caused some com ment, but the fact that Holland and Switzerland sold much larger quanti- ties of milk in the United States in 1915 than ever before is considered more remarkable, for these two coun- tries have access to practically all markets in Europe. The total i'm ports into the United States from all countries in 1915 were valued at practically s2,OOO,000 or one-third of the exports, and although Canada furnished more than half. Holland did a business approximating $S00,- 900 as against less than $3O0,000 the year previous. Switzerland now is 1 selling to us at a rate of $25O,000 a year, where formerly practically no 1 milk came from that country.

FROM PLOUGH TO
 EDITORIAL CHAIR.
One Time Farmer Boy Now Edits tn Biggest Woman's Magazine in

Especial to the HeraldJ

New York, Feb. 17.-Hiram Moe Greene, once a country boy from Fremont Ohio, today occupies tho editorial chair of Woman's World, 6, magazine with circulation of mort than 2,O0O,O00.
 The success of Hiram Greene is q noteworthy example of the value of work and study. Starting out witt only a common school education. the future editor of Woman's World worked in a bank until he had saved enough money to help him through college. Here he studied medical jurisprudence and supported himself by writing stories for the magazine
 So successful did he become as sl writer that a few years later he gavts up his profession and engaged in thtl publishing business, being connected with the Bobbs-M Merrill company fofa several years and later becoming edia tor of the Illustrated Sunday Maga zine. It was while in this last posi ton that the publishers of Womant World, casting about for successo to MT. Charles Dwyer, picked out thtS former country boy as the man suited through experience and keen sense O. editorial values to edit the magakinsA which comes under the eyes of morH women than any other publication hS the world.

be particularly favorable to the pro ject, to perfect at the earliest possi- ble time the details for the permanent establishment of such a court of ar bitral justice.
 "There was in January, 1914, every reason for believing that the court would be established before the end of the year. From my point of view, one of the most tragical facts in all history is, that if the writing of the Austrian note of July 23, 1914, could have been postponed year there would have been in existence inter national machinery to operate as a substitute for war.
 Now is the time to prepare to per feet that machinery when peace has once more been secured. The job be- longs peculiarly to the United States and she should now be busy shaping her course"

| PERMANENT !. PEACE
 WITHOUT ANY WAR
May Be Achieved By Establishing Supreme Court of World"
Especial to the HeraldD


 Washington, D. C., Feb. 17-That nations may achieve permanent peace without war or the fear of war, by |setting up at The Hague that 'Su- preme Court of the World" to which they agreed at the second Hague tri- bunal, is the idea set forth in a state ment issued today by the American PPeace society Tn sketching the de- velopments that have led up to this, logically the next step in the peace program, Arthur Deerin Call, the sec retary of the society, said:
 Tt became necessary long ago for the civilized nations to organize rules binding upon them in their intercourse with one another. The result is that, as the international relations have multiplied, international laws, which are their outgrowth, have increased in number and importance. Over six hundred cases have been decided be- tween the United States and foreign nations in accord with international principles of arbitration, friendly composition, or law.
 Conference of 1907.
 "In 1899 twenty-six nations of the world met at The Hague and made laws for themselves, some affecting the conduct of nations in war, others in peace. In 1907, forty-four of the nations met at The Hague. At this conference laws, some relating agair

to war, some to peace, were stated and l afterward wrought into the practice of nations. Perhaps most important of all the conference of 1907 adopted a draft convention for the establish ment of a permanent court of justice in other words. a supreme court of the world. All the nations represent ed agreed upon this court. The only reason it was not immediately organ ized and set into motion lay in the fact that the nations could not agree upon a method of appointing the judges The two great important out l standing facts relative to the two 1 Hague conferences are that they were in reality making bodies and that | the leading countries of the world of- l ficially agreed to the organization of | a high court of nations.
 Permanent World Peace.
 ''It is not especially impotant that those are the two things pleaded for by the founder of the American Peace society in 1S4O. The importance of l them lies in the fact that those two
 great principles are at the basis of the hope in an international peace, be- cause it is these two great agencies, a
 making and laW-interpreting
 
 a substitute for international war It is of importance that we of America
 should understand this, for in it lie the possibilities of permanent world i peace.
 "It is true that the war has
 brought to the United States new op- |, porunities and new responsibilities. A
 great patriotic opportunity facing Am , erica today is to promote the princi-
 ples of a judicial settlement of differ i ences through such agencies as the
 recently formed American Institute of
 International Law, to advance among
 our sister republics the peaceful and sympath etic settlement of internation- al disputes, and that in accordance : with the principles of law and equity Third Conference Likely
 Does it not stand to reason that after the experience of the greater . 1 world war now destroying in Europe = the accumulated treasures of centur- ies and the flower of her manhood , there will be another, a third confer |. ence of neutrals and belligerents 2 l probably at The Hague, where greater prominence shall be given to the ma- i chinery of justice already at hand :, Is that not the great psych ologica, 1 moment for which we should now be 1 preparing?

ENGLAND'S MISTAKE
 PRIOR TO THE WAR
Failure to Develop Dirigible Air.
 ship Fleet, Declares Balfour

London, Feb. 17-Yesterday's de- bate in parliament on the air de- fense of Great Britain was chiefly remarkable for the frank admission made by the cabinets spokesman that the present conditions are far from satisfactory. Andrew Bonar Law, secretary for the colonies; A. J. Bal four, first lord of the admiralty, and H. J. Tennant, under secretary for war, all spoke in this vein. They de- clared, however, that the government was doing all that was humanly pos sible.
 MT. Balfour scored the sensation of the day when he declared that one of Englands great mistakes in the days prior to the war was her fail ure to develop a dirigible airship fleet along lines similar to that of Ger many.
 Should Have Zeppelins.
 With regard to zeppelins,' he said, Hooking back on events I am sorry that we did not develop that type of vessel, not so much for az gression and defense as for maritime and other scouting. Such airships might have played for us an import ant part. Certainly Germany has had an advantage in possessing them.
 We are doing what we can to remedy this state of things, but I do not pretend that when we began the race ten years behind the enemy. there is any reasonable probability Of catching up. However, something must be done, and what can is be- ing done.'
 Recalls ChurchiIFs Statement.
 The matter of zeppelins came up earlier in the day in the opening ist, who recalled Winston Spencer Churchill's statement of March, 1914, that England was to have fleet of airships and that one of the Zeppe- lin type had been laid down.
 MT. Churchill" continued the speaker, "said we had built or were building fifteen airships. Where are they?"
 Towards the close of his speech MT. Joynson Hicks reverted to the same subject, remarking:
 II have left out the possibility of our defending ourselves from an air raid by means of airships of the Zeppelin type, because we have not got any. Regarding this lack. a heavy responsibility rests on the gentleman who was first lord of the admiralty some time ago.

PRINCE ALBERT NOTED
 AROMA AND GOODNESS
Smokers of This Famous Brand of Tobacco Realize
 worth of the Patent.

Smokers so much appreciate the flavor and coolness and aroma Of Prince Albert pipe and cigarette tob- acco that they often marvel that this one brand could be so different from all others.
 The answer to this question is to be found on the reverse side of every Prince Albert package, where you will read: Process Patented July 3Oth, 1907" That tells the whole story. Prince Albert is made by pat ented process that cuts out the bite and parch. which makes the tobacco so mighty agreeable and satisfying to men of every taste of every civilized nation on the globe.
 Smokers should realize that this patented process cost three years continuous work and study and for tune in money to perfect. But the result has proven to be worth all that was expended upon it, because it has set free men who believe they never could enjoy a pipe or a makin's cigar ette.
 Prince Albert makes it possible for every man to smoke a pipe or to roll his own cigarettes. And, no matter how tender the tongue. Prince Albert cannot bite or parch. That is cut out They claimed that although the canal had been in existence over thirty years. it had not given adequate ser vice at any time. The diversion dam ncross the Gila river. six miles east of Florence was out of repairs, and the canal system gradually fell into a con dition which made irrisating impossi- ble In spite of bond issue in 1885. the system was not improved, and it is claimed that the money received in this way was never spent on the project. In the last three years the farmers spent $25.5I952 on the system in order 10 get water for their crops. They asked for the return of the mon- ey spent. and that the company's wat CT rights be cancelled. The commis- sion declined to pass on water rights, CT to order the refund of the money spent. on the ground that it was a question for the courts to decide. It. however. ordered the company 10 give service and that almost immediately. IL is generally expected that the order
