KING GEORGE IS MODEL LANDLORD' Believes in Children as Basis for
 Future of Empire

London. April fixing George. ac- cording to pr. c. w. sa1eebv. the famous eugenist. is the one model landlord in the country. "No one has observed the distinction between what l call respectively housing and hom. ing. he writes. except the King on the Duchy of Cornwall estate in soutb London. Elsewhere all, housing schemes are for the childless. If you have a baby. out you go as if you had committed a nuisance.
 Everywhere we penalize, punish prohibit the parenthood upon which the future of our a Empire depends
 Only the King has set an example to

 mercy housing, and in the adoption Of an ingenious device for moving the partition between adjacent houses according to the growth or decline of
 contiguous families. To set such an
 example is to practice the precept i'm
 plicit in His Majestys own words to
 the Convocation of York, The foin- dations of national glory are laid in
 the homes of the people, For the
 rest our landlords are conniving at our imperial ruin.'
 pr. Saleeby is pleading for the adoption by government of & policy
 that will encourage worthy parent
 hood" The need for it, he declares to be most urgent owing to the wastage of the war, and the steadily declining birthrate. In 1916 it was 21.6 per thousand the lowest on record.
 We must" he says, make parent hood possible for self-respecting and provident people. roundly assert that while worthy parenthood is our greatest imperial need, the whole force and trend of our policy is to penalize it. Recent budgets have been simply brutal in this respect. the relief for parenthood being little better than the calculated insult which lawyers call 'contemptuous damages
 Morals, which promoted the birth rate commission is now preparing a petition to the chancellor of the ex- chequer. A. Bonar Law. which is, in effect, plea for parenthood. Tn this petition many measures of financial
 relief for worthy parenthood are sug- gested, together with provision for education of children, especially the

ARABS AWAKEN TO
 SELF GOVERNMENT
May Make Own Laws at Close
 Of HoStiitieS

London, April At is generally believed in England that the close of the war will see the reorganization of Arabia into a definite autonomous government, known as tArabistan with the capital in Mecca, and gov erning territory about the size of India. Reuters agency sends out a dispatch which may be taken to sum- marize British official opinion on the Arabian question. It says:
 ''The Arab race Is beginning not only to awake out to coalesce We are on the verge of one of those great Arab intellectual movements which have been turning-points in the his tory of the past both in Asia and Eu- rope.
 '"The Arabs cannot be expected, af- ter being the victims of studied dis integration, for 600 years, to have a strong national sense according to European standards, but a sense of race and desire for independence is growing. This feeling constitutes a menacing factor from the standpoint of the Central Powers, and an i'm mense asset from the standpoint of the Entente.
 'For 500 years it has been the poll icy of the Turkish rulers of the Arab people to stimulate tribal, municipal, and political feuds, to support one faction against another and thus hold the people in subjection. During this period, while Arab vitality and in- tellect have remained undamaged, the lands inhabited by the Arabs, once countries of civilization, progress and culture, have become wastes and an agglomeraton of ruins.
 'The whole situation is now changing, and old religious and tribal feuds are dying down rapidly. In Syria there Is, a sense of unity and brotherhood among Arab-speaking peoples such as has not existed since Turkish domination was first inflicted on the country
 Two recent occurrences have done much to promote this feeling of unity One is Djemal Pasha's reign of ter TOT at Damascus. which has brought suffering and death into the noblest of the princely families. The other Is the action of the Sheref of Mecca and his followers in proclaiming their in- dependence. The Sheref has taken the title of King of the Dedjaz.
 "Since the proclamation of his king ship, King Hussan has forme6 al- HduCeS WllA Iuo olucI HhpoTLAuI III" dependent rulers of Arabia, and where ever these alliances reach. the Turk rules no more. The terrftory thus di- vorced from Turkish rule covers a space nearly as large as India.
 'In the United States and South America there are many Arabs. and they have there proved themselves the moral and intellectual equal of the Caucasian. The great driving force of Arab racialism gives grounds for hopes of an independent Arabistan, which assisted by kinsmen in Ameri- ca should have all the essentials of progress and stability"

OLDGLORY FLUTTERS
 IN PARIS STREETS
Flung to Freezes With Tri-Color
 Of France

Paris, April 1.-The Stars and Stripes are waving side by side with the Allies flags in the streets of Paris. With dramatic symbolism the sun burst through wintry sky at the moment when the news that America had thrown the gauntlet became known. Immense enthusiasm was aroused. Nothing else is discussed in the press, An opinion Suppressed in the Tem1s editorially. Snt1 "The Verdict" which says:
 ''It is great date in the history of America-a great date in the history of humanity. Despite the Monroe Doctrine, despite immigration, despite the ties of all kinds binding the two nations, the aggressive policy of the Hohenzollerns has forced into the war the nation which. was most firmly resolved to remain neutral, whose leader was declared less. than a year fago too proud to fight
 This is not the moment to discuss the details of American cooperation. Today the moral importance. of the event is uppermost in our minds. Will son from the first day conducted his policy like a man of law. His impas- sibility, his refusal to pass judgment at times surprised us, but this very at titude gives his present decision the force of a verdict. Neither territorial greed nor national passion has thrown the United States into the struggle. What has brought her in is the proof, methodically established, that Ger many systematically violates the laws of war and peace. and that her de- feat alone can assure the tranquallity and dignitx of nations. When the starry banner of the Union will be un- furled on our battlefields it will be something more than military, naval, or financial CO., operation come to sus- tain our cause--it will be the verdict of the conscience of the human race before the tribunal of history.
 France in the past has fulfilled to- ward America duties dictated to her by her ideals To the United States. who today is paying her debt to the same ideal, we proffer at the mo- ment when they are joining the ranks of the soldiers fighting for right the fraternal greeting of 8 people H. lumined by thirty-two months of suf- fering on behalf of liberty"

AVE SOME .BEEF BRAwN."

London, April "A new army ra- tion to replace the familiar bully beef' has been issued to a large sec7 ton of the home armies in Great Britain. It is known officially as ''beef brawn," and resembles in ap- pearance the familiar pressed beef. A sausage ration has proved Q great success in another section of the home armies. and arrangements are being made to increase it's use, while further large issues of Canadian fish and homegrown rabbits have been ordered, replacing imported cold storage beef.

These are not at all expensive. With tho resinol soap and warm water bathe the affected parts thoroughly, until they are free from crusts and the skin is softened. Dry very gently, spread on thin layer of the resinol ointment, and cover with light bandage-if nec- essary to protect the clothing. This should be done twice . day. Usually the itching and burning stop with the first treatment, and the skin soon be- comes clear and healthy again.
 Almost any soap will clean the skin and hair. But those who want a soap which not only cleanses but actually hsJps the complexion and hair are wise to choose resinol soap.
