temple of Boro-Budur. one of the most
gigantic and finest works ever reared
by the ancients. Boro-B ndur repre-
sents more human labor and artistic
skin than the great pyramid. Yet
everyone has heard Of the great pyra-
guild while practically no one knows
OF Boro-Budur.
Boro-Budur was built about the sew

lies in central Java and owes its origin
to Buddhism. The ashes Of Buddha

brought one of these vases and. as q

started the work of restoring the tenn
Pile to something of its former glory,
which was continued by the Dutch au-
thorities when they took back the
island at the close Of the Napoieenic
wars. Due to this restorative work,
the temple can be seen to-day much
as 1t was 1900 years ago.
It's out-of-tbe-way position and the
rather Indifferent service by tnta,
pony cart, and later auto-bus, are the
principal reasons why It is not being
visited by more travellers. In addition
to this. 1t has not been extensively adj
vertised like the pyramids All this
now bids fair to be changed, for even
in the Malay archipelago-the land of
rest tomorrow" and hackwardness-
things are now going ahead with leaps
ard bounds.
The most startling of all is the prof.
ect Of an airplane service to handle
mail and passengers between different
points In the archipelago. The I'M
dertalIing is hacked by Dutch capital
lists, the most conservative men in the
world, so 1t may be taken for granted
that it IS thoroughly feasible or they
would not have considered 1t.
And with airplane service Boro-
Budur may come into its own. This
world wonder, so long unheard of and
neglected by the world at large, will
be visited by thousands Of globe trot-
ters availing themselves of the air
plane service.

scientist, said: "The human labor and
skill expended on Boro-Budur Is so
great that that expended ON the
great pyramid sinks into insigniticance

something Of the magnificence and the
grandeur of this huge hill temple:
One Of the views shows Boro-Budur

mound, a series OF galleries, cupolas

Buddhist builders apparently deemed
IT advisable in this way to strengthen
their structure while in course of cree
ton. Formerly a heavy stone para
pet surrounded the existing plain.
In the middle OF each Of the four
sides Of this parapet an opening gave
access to a flight of stairs, at the
sides of which we're heavy hanlsters.
AT the lower end OF the stairs are huge
laughing lions Of stone. which still re-
main with their fixed laughter after

The Battle Of Campaign Dollars.

Is it not an unequal battle that
Gov. Cox and the republican national
campaign committee are waging over
the fund question? The governor is
making his charges and presenting his
proofs" on the stump, without the
fornality or restriction Of an oath and
without the possibility Of cross-exami-
nation, while the managers of the re-
publican party are going on the wit.
ness stand and testifying under oath
and under the fire of cross-question.
1t would seem to be more sportsman
like for the governor to take the stand
himself and tell his story and prefer
his charges as a witness for the peo-
pie, with the privilege Of being re-
called later to meet in rebuttal the
testimony that may be given by the
defense. The committee has the power
of subpoena, and it may exercise it
later.
Assuredly the chief effect upon the
public mind at present in this case Is
that Of somewhat boring display of
campaign fireworks that get nowhere.

Mr.. Root and the League.

Mr.. Root, it appears, has not given
his whole time while in Europe to mat
ters connected with the establishment
of IN international court of justice,
but has found time to discuss with a
number of leading statesmen on the
continent and in England the league
of nations proposition, and will be pre-
pared upon his return home to COM
municate to his party friends, and, if
not directly, through them to the
country, his own latest ideas on that
subject. He is expected back not later
than the middle of this month.
Mr.. Harding's latest deliverance
about the league is now under gen.
eral discussion, and probably will re-
main so for some days. So that an
extended deliverance by Mr.. Root
based upon the Information he has
gathered abroad will still further
broaden and quicken interest in d
question of moment to all.
AS The Star suggested the other
day, Mr.. Root ought to take the
stump. Three or four speeches by
him. well placed, would be of great
service, not only to his party, but be-
yond its confines. There are many
democrats who recognize in Mr.. Root
not only an eminent lawyer, but an
eminent statesman; and anything he
may have to say at this momentous
be appraised by them at d high figure.
AS the people are to vote on the
league of nations, they should do so in
the light of all the facts and sugges-
tons that have entered into the ques-
ton since the Versailles treaty was
signed. now more than twelve months
ago.

to see Mr.. Harding and Gov Coolidge
go on stumping tours point to the lat

See. they say, how well both men
speak; how clearly and forcibly they
present their ideas. They are born
stumpers. So why not stump?

reports Of all that takes place at
Marion and at Boston. The public,

The American Navy.

Speaking Monday at Charleston,
W. Va, where the government is build.
ing a naval armor and projectile plant,
Secretary Daniels said:
I'VE are not only completing this
great plant, but we are building enor-
NOUS docks and other needed shore
facilities elsewhere, and we are con-
structing eighteen dreadnaughts and
battle cruisers. with dozen other
powerful ships, which, in effective
fighting power. will give our Navy
world primacy."
This is the note. Let us keep the
home fires burning" Let US take the
piac. on the water to which by every
consideration we are entitled.
No sentiment ever uttered by the
President met with more immediate
or general approval than that con,
tanned in one OF his stumping pro.
nouncements in favor of IAN incom.

democrats alike applauded that. All
recognized in it something truly Ameri
can and worthy of American support.

In this matter. 1t has demonstrated
the inestimable Importance of sea

us build up our Navy to the proper

Bad Business in Potomac Park.

| That the government goods stored
| in the flimsy buildings in Potomac
Park, formerly used as barracks for
troops stationed there during the war,
are in danger not only from fire, which
may at any time sweep the place and
destroy million and a half in value,
but from the collapse of the build
ings themselves. is demonstrated by
the cave-in of a floor of one of the
structures the other day, as reported
in The Star yesterday.
Immediate steps for the removal of
these goods to a safer place should
be taken, even if officials who are
charged with the responsibility Of the
proper housing of the government are
absent from Washington. Obviously
there is danger in the use of the Po-
tomac Park barracks every hour that
these supplies are permitted to remain
there. And the peril is not only to
the stock itself. which can be replaced.
The lives of those who enter the build
ings to handle the stock are risked
every time they put foot through the
doorways.
Is this condition to be tolerated
for months until somebody returns to
Washington from out of town? Or is
there authority somewhere in the CAPT
tai to correct it at once?
If these supplies are of any value
! they should be securely stored If
they are Of no value to the govern
ment they should be sold or destroyed.
If they are surplus" they should not
be kept. to deteriorate..

tive early use it would provide a safe

and it would seem from the present
situation in Potomac Park that there
is still ground for the suggestion that

ministration there issroom for decided
improvement in the public service.

Good Sense and Good Faith.

| Good sense appears to be prevailing
at Wilkes Barre, where the scale COM
mittee of the anthracite miners is in
session to consider the wage awards
of the Presidents commission. The
disposition is to accept the award,
despite the efforts Of a hostile ele'
ment, bent upon making trouble Tor
the present union administration.
| When President Wilson told the
miners through their representative
officials that they were obligated to
accept the award he was giving them
a chance to square themselves. after
having sent him a threatening tele-
! gram Now that chance is under
consideration. There should be no
doubt about it's acceptance.
There is more at stake in this mat
ter than the increased wages and the
consequent increased price of coal.
Good faith is involved. And on good
faith, as the President pointed out in
his telegram of reply, is based the
whole system of collective bargaining.
If the workers will not abide by their
own pledges. if they insist upon fol-
lowing their factional bent and re-
pudiate their organizations, there can
be no dependence upon any bargain or
contract and industry is thrown into
a chaotic condition.
The strongest argument of the
unions today is that by dealing with
and through them the employer and
the public are assured Of uniformity
and faithful performance. The strong
est argument against them is furnish
ed by those Of their own ranks who
repudiate agreements and desert and
override their regularly constituted
representatives.
The hope of the country is that good
sense will continue to prevail at
Wilkes Barre.
