THE FOUNDATION FOR ANOTHER WAR

Recent developments at Genoa bring to light the true
European situation. When the United States was invited to
send representatives to this conference the Evening News
along with a great majority Of the press of America, was
heartily in favor of having the invitation accepted. The
foresight and wisdom of Secretary of State Hughes in de-
clining TO participate, however, has been demonstrated. The
conference has developed, as Mr.. Hughes predicted it would,
into a political rather than an economic affair and while
the United States is deeply concerned in the economic situa-
ton in Europe she certainly does not want to become in
volved in the political entanglements there.
But it must be borne in mind that there is a vast differ
ence between European politics and world politics. The
United States, due to her commanding position in the world,
has got to participate in world politics, but the politics of
Europe alone are not for her to dabble in.
Today, in view of this latest Russian German treaty,
we see the need more than ever of real world leadership. In
other words, had the United States gone into the League Of
Nations at the very beginning and played her full part in
world affairs the present reaignment in Europe in prepara-
ton for another great war would probably not be taking
place.
1t has been predicted from the beginning that unless
al the nations were leagued together for the preservation of
peace and the advancement of civilization new alliances
would be formed with the Allies on the one side and Ger.
many, Russia and possibly Japan on the other. The failure
OF the United States to make the League Of Nations secure,
this country being the one great disinterested power that
could command the confidence of the other nations, left the
powers to drift largely for themselves with the inevitable
result of old hatreds cropping out and opposing combina-
tions being formed that cannot help but be menacinb to the
world in general.
With German efficiency applied to the vast resources
of Russia a combination is affected that the rest OF the world
NAV well view with concern. The success of the Wash
fn9ton conference, which, by the way, was held none too
soon, has probably forestalled the entrance of Japan into
this new combination but there is no telling what the future
may bring forth in this regard. With the diplomatic foun-
dation thus laid for the next great struggle nothing short
Of q solid front on the part of the old allies in the late war
will assure the safety Of those nations.

BATIK MAKING BECOMING
ART IN AMERICA

WASHINGTON. April 1s.-Tha
batik win soon be accepted as ar
art in this country is prophesiet
by J. P. Neigh, batik maker Of this
| city.
Most OF us have seen vivid SAM
pies Of batik, which we were told
were made by drawing a design on
material with wax and dipping the
piece in dye to color the part unpro-
tected by wax. We understood that
this was high Javanese art and tina.
a taste for 1t should be cultivated
Now. it seems. the most startling
outbursts of color are not necessar-
lily the most admirable. In fact
they represent an early phase OF
American batik makers attempts al
| dyeing in the Javanese fashion.
Until recently, Mr.. Neigh says
the fate of batik in this country has
hung in the balance. Artists and
J connoisseurs awaited TO see II fiashy
| futuristic designs. displayed as typ
cally Javanese batik, would be re-
placed by more subtle work. There
was danger, too, of batik becoming
a porch fad, like basketry and bead
chains. If this fate were to befall
and batik were to be made by per-
sons with no understanding of tech
nique, color, or design, then the pro-
cess would be permanently relegated
to the plane of fancy work. 1t would
have its days of favor and retire.
Luckily for batik and its defend
ers, its production has proved a lit
tie too difficult and too exacting to
attract many faddists. Luckily, too,
craftsmen who were turning out
smocks, scarfs, and lampshades in
hashed rainbow effects eventually
began to absorb Javanese traditions,
which called for softer colors and
clean cut lines. The success of our
most skilled batikers is indicated
by the fact that they often receive
orders for their work from abroad.
Crackle Effects Passing
A recent exhibition of batik dresses
made by a New York artist was a
surprise even to some visitors who
talked learnedly of crackle effects
and admired the right points in the
designs. The thing that surprised
them was that these dresses were
suitable for wear on the street. In
most cases, only the sleeves were
decorated with the dyed designs. and
the clear patterns in beautiful color
combinations were no more con-
spicuous than trimmings of delicate
ly figured printed silks would have
been. This, 1t was agreed, was a
standard for American batik.
In this exhibition there was very
| little OF the popular crackle effect,
| produced by letting the wax on a
design crackle so that the colors
run through it in thin veins. Crac-
kle has been so prevalent in Am
erican batiks that many people re-
| gard it as a sure test of real batik.
The Javanese, however, regard
cracking of the wax as a flaw. be-
cause 1t may occur without the art

REACHING a SATISFACTORY SOLUTION

More good work was done on the Amboy avenue paving
matter yesterday. The delegation of aldermen who appeared
before the State Highway Commission found the state au-
thorities very willing to cooperate in putting this stretch OF
roadway in fit condition. All realized the seriousness of the
situation and there is every reason to believe that a perma-
nent improvement is now in sight.
It is particularly gratifying that it has been practically
decided to adopt the new route across the property of the
Barber Asphalt Paving Company for the highway. AS bad
as is the present pavement, it can endured as long as there
is evidence Of a permanent Improvement under way. Detours
are always necessary under such circumstances and, with
a little attention, the present road cannot become any worse
than many of the detours that have been created in different
parts of the state while new work has been going on.
Then, once the new route is completed the advantage
will be so great both for the public and the industry directly
concerned that the inconvenience caused by using the pres
ent route during the building of the new road will be- wholly
justified.
The aldermen are going at this matter in a business
like way. Full of complications from the outset with the
city, county and state jointly involved, they have gradually
worked out Of the tangle in a way that is d decidedly ~creditable
While the matter is not yet finally settled the situation is
being cleared up and every indication points to a satisfactory
solution in the immediate future.
Amboy avenue Strengthened and paved from curb to
curb all the way to the city line will be a great credit to the
the city. 1t will go far toward creating a favorable impress
sion of Perth Amboy on the part of the thousands of nom
residents who pass through here every year.

GRADE CROSSING TOLLS

Grade crossings throughout the state have been taking
a heavy toll of lives this spring. AS the automobile traffic
the menace grows worse. The accident last Sun
day at lnterlaken near Asbury Park was particularly mex
cusable because of the railroad company failing to maintain
suitable protection at that crossing.
This is one of the main entrances to Asbury Park and
it is used by thousands of autoists every week. To have
nothing but a gong and signal light there is gross negligence.
The least that is to be expected is safety gates.
Asbury Park has been agitating the elimination of all
grade crossings there, but with the erection of a new rail-
road station now under way it is evident that the railroad
company has no intention of elevating the tracks for some
time to come. That being the case every crossing, particu-
larly those that form a part of the main highways should be
given the protection of safety gates in charge of competent
tenders at all hours.
