ROMANCE AND BEAUTY.
The Patawomeck river-the name
the crucible Of usage has evolved
into Potomac--was once the great
inland artery of commerce of
America. Alexandria. tho very
name of which acts anesthetically
upon the emotional centers of
Washingtonians. was once the great
port Of the Atlantic coast. Just
why these forgotten and unbeliev-
able statements were true, In made
most apparent in the book that
Wilstach has written.
Few people other than wilstach
have ever had the temerity to write
romance with a river for tts
heroic character. And yet that is
what wilstach has done. Few
people, even In these volsteady
days. would write history with
water as q main feature and fail
to let the water dilute the interest
as well as the facts. But VIII
stach has done 1t! Perhaps the
effect of the times on literature
has had something to do with 1t.
Perhaps It will be a bit ironicaI
to some Of the older residents
along the river to find a day when
its broad waters are served to II as
the only form OF inspiration and
stimulation possible. Yet that is
what Potomac Landings" will do
to the reader. And will do II

Sends Vast Relief
To Needy Abroad

Various relief projects of the Junior

countries resulted in helping 237 900
destitute children during the last ifs
cal year, according to the annual re-
port of the American Red Cross for

drawn upon for S420.557 for these prof

JUR|ST WHITES
PANAMA AWARD
OURS HARDING
Expresses Regret Pres

Feel Hurt by Verdict.
Declares State Depart
ments Note Has His,
and His Party S Okeh.

Washington, March 19-The decis-
ion of Chief Justice White in the PAN
ama-Costa Rica boundary dispute
must be the unalterable position of
the United States government. Presi-
dent Harding declared Saturday in re-
ply to a personal appeal from Pres
dent Porras of Panama.
Although he expressed regret that
Panama should feel wounded by the
White decision, described in Senor
Porras' message as painful and hui
initiating" Mr.. Harding declined to
consider any other basis of settlement
and asserted that the recent state de-
partment's note insisting on enforce
ment of the decision had his party's
approval.
The exchange between the two exc
cutiyes. made public tex.uallv Sa.ur
day night at the White House was in
the nature of an ad interim ,iiscussiun
while the state department awaited
Panama's reply to it's note. Costa
Rica already has accepted the White
award ard some definite answer from
Panama is expected within a few days.
In making his appeal President
Porras recalled the expressions of
friendship for Panama given by Mr..
lldtiiEs idSt -NoteiuDeE uuTIuk HIS WISH
there as president-e elect, and voiced
hope that the Panaman people might
not be disappointed YIN their faith in
the new administration at Washing
ton. President Harding replied by re-
newing his avowals of cordiality. but
added that the exercise of friendly
relations always must be tempered
by justice.
The message from the Panaman
president was received late Friday and
before replying Mr.. Harding had long
Saturday with Secretary
Hughes of the state department. 1t is
understood that they not only went
over in detail the latest information
the situation between the
two Central American republics but
also discussed the broad questions of
policy involved in final determined
insistence on the position taken by
this government.
