The Zone of Political Change
New States Of Europe Lie In Rela-
lively Narrow Belt.
From Nature


In paper contributed TO the British
Association at Hull Professor j. +. I'm
stead commented on the striking fact
that the new States OF Europe or those
which have gained or reRained inde-
pendent existence during recent years,
lie in relatively narrow belt OF coun-
try extending across the whole Of Eu-
rope from the Arctic Sea in the north
TO the Mediterranean In the south. West
of this belt changes have been slight,
while east Of IL final settlement has
not been reached OF this belt no part
has been exempt from change. 1t con-
tains about 100000 OF people or
about one-fifth OF the inhabitants of
Europe. and covers about one-fifth Of
the total area OF the continent. The
new States have been formed mainly by
the break up Of three great empires. the
disintegration of which was one OF the
results of the world war.
Professor INSTEAD pointed out that
the belt of change is region caught
between east and west. marginal to each
and influenced by each, and he showed
how this idea applies both to physical
and human conditions. Western Eu-
rope, with inland seas and intricate
structure and relief, provides varied re-
sources. maritime, agricultural and min
eral. Into this region spread the civili-
zation Of tho Mediterranean region, and
here communities found the physical
conditions which enabled them to de-
velop. Physical barriers and relatively
small productive areas gave distinctive
ness and led eventually to the growth
OF separate nationalties. These nations
became self-governlng and. broadly
speaking. democratic.
Eastern Europe, on the other hand, is
characterized by uniformity of structure
and relief with great belts OF similar
climatic conditions and natural vegeta-
ton extending through 1t into Asia and
so facilitating human migrations and
military movements, mainly cast and
west. From the human as we'll as the
physical point of view this region was
for many centuries an extension OF Asia
and had but scanty population. The
Slav languages became characteristic
and the authority of the Czar dominated
the greater part Of the region.
The Asiatic incursions which in earlier
centuries swept across the eastern plains
were as rule checked when they
reached the belt OF change. Here they

contains the ASSERTION which Mr.. Watts
condemns. Moreover, every one pre-
sents correctly the information made
available by exploration and survey
The surveys made by Lieutenant Pills
bury, u. s. NJ, some forty years ago
furnished information that could not
have been made available prior to that
time. Pillsbury had the advantage Of
better instruments of measurement than
were possessed by. Maury. but in most
respects Maurys conclusions were sus-
tained. The results OF Pillsbury's sur
veys were summarized in a physical
geography published in the sos; they
have appeared in everys text with which
l am familiar since that time.
Moreover, if the quotation which Mr..
Watt criticizes follows summary of
the facts, such as ! presented in THE
NEW YORK HERALD of the preceding
Sunday, it is not unjustifiable. The
quotation beginning "The effects of
ocean currents" is correct The sweep
ing assertions that school books still
cling to the hot water system" and
that "a generation brought up on such
books wants a picturesque physical sign
and still finds 1t in the undigested nom

Miller on Our Schools.

With all he has done to put the
government of the State Of New York
on business basis, to cut appropria-
tions and expenditures, tighten taxes
and get public service value for pub
lie money spent, Governor MILLER
never has lost sight of the biggest
thing Of all to the parents and fami-
lies of the State-the public school
system. AS he told the Board of Re-
gents in his address to them at AL
bany, his attitude as school teacher
in the past and as Governor now is as
follows:
America is the land of equal OPP
portunity. of equal rights and privi-
leges before the law. The first requi-
site to insure for every one a fair
chance, the first requisite to maintain
the American ideal of equal opportu-
nifty. the first requisite to preserve
our American institutions as well as
our ideals is the maintenance of the
equal opportunity for all. rich and
poor, native born or foreign born, to
secure an education which will equip
our boys and girls for the struggle of
life. physically. morally and men
tally; an education which will make
the individual an instrument of hap
piness to himself and to others, fit
him to be useful to the State and
teach him to be loyal to his State
and country
In working out his policy of inn
proving the public school system Gov
ernor MILLER has been vigorous and
enthusiastic in his efforts to give
more adequate pay to the teachers.
In 1920 the States school expendi-
ture for each child registered was
$62.14; in 1921 the State expended
for each child registered S94.13, and
in 1922 there will be still larger ex-
penditure, chiefly due to the increases
in the salaries of the teaching force
which Governor MILLER describes as
the keystone of our educational sys-
tenn
And best of all. Governor MILLER
has been doing his great work Of ex-
panding and strengthening the State
public school system with money
that before his administration was
extravagantly or needlessly spent in
other departments. 1t hasn't cost the
taxpayers cent. On the contrary
while the school work and other
State work is bigger than they were
before, the taxpayers bills are lower
than they we're before.

Autumn Chant.

From the Montreal Gozette.
Now the autumn shudders
In the roses root.
Far and wide the ladders
Lean among the fruit.
Now the autumn chambers
Up the trellised frame,
And the rose remembers
The dust from which II came.
Brighter than the blossom
On the roses bough
Sits the wizened orange.
Bitter berry now.
Beauty never slumbers
All 10 IN her name.
But the rose remembers
The dust from which Il came.

The Issues in New Jersey.

Governor EDWARDS OF New Jersey
running against Senator FRELINGHUY-
SEN for the United States Senate, has
tried to make the voters Of his State
believe that the great national ques-
tion is prohibition and that to change
from dry to wet New Jersey should
send EDWARDS to the upper branch
Of Congress. If he can fool them
about this they have short memories
because he is the same EDWARDS who
told them when he was running fol
Governor that If they wanted New
Jersey to be wet they should elect
him Governor.
New Jersey elected EDWARDS Gov
ernor and New Jersey is still dry and
will continue dry for all Governor
EDWARDS can do about It, If New
Jersey elected EDWARDS to the United
States Senate New Jersey would still
be dry for all EDWARDS could dc
about it.
Prohibition is not the national is
sue at all in New Jersey, as Senator
FRrLINGHUYsEN in his outstanding
straightforward, manly campaign
honestly tells the voters. The actual
national issues before the voters OF
New Jersey as before the voters OF
the rest of the country are those set
forth by Secretary of State HUGHES
in his Tuesday evening address al
West Hoboken. They are the ma
tional issues that come home to every
family and touch the pocketbook OF
every worker-the national expendi-
lures and taxes, the condition of in
dustry and business, the chance to
have employment and to save some
thing above the cost Of living.
Secretary HUGHES put these ma
tional issues before the voters of New
Jersey in something like the follow
ing form:
Two years ago they wanted better
business and they got it, Now they
want the business improvement tc
go on.
They wanted more work for wage
earners and they got it, with 5,O00,00
more employed to-day than there
were year and a half ago. Now
they want the employed to remain
employed.
They wanted Government saving
instead of Government squander and
they got it, with Government expen-
ditures reduced from S6,406,343, ,00G
in the fiscal year of 1920 to $3,373,-
607 900 in 1922. Now they want a
further reduction.
They wanted reduction in the
war debt and they got it, with bill
ion dollar tightening of that burden.
They wanted cut in taxes and they
got it, with ssO0,OoO,OOO taken off the
national tax bills of the American
people.
1t is to go on with such work in
the national Congress that Senator
FREIINGHUYsEN asks the voters OF
New Jersey to send him back to
Washington. He candidly tells them
prohibition is not an issue in Con-
gress now. while all the matters that
affect the work and pay and living OF
the American people are live issues
in the national Congress.
Governor EDWARDS can talk till the
cows come home about making New
Jersey wet IL he goes to the United
States Senate, but he is not waging a
straight campaign when he pretends
that is the real issue any more than
he was waging straight campaign
when he asked the voters of New
Jersey to elect him Governor so as to
make the State wet and then when he
was elected did not do thing and
could not do a thing about IT

APPEAL TO FREE
MOONEY LIKELY

SAN FRANCISCO, April 5.-An
important and far-reaching precedent
has Just been established by the Cali
fornia District Court of Appeals
which is likely to obtain the freedom
Of Tom Mooney and Warren X. Bill
ings militant labor leaders who were
condemned to life imprisonment upon
periured testimony.
Almost coincident with the filing
Of Tom Moneys appeal, before the
same court, seeking to upset the de-
cision by a lower court denying a
writ of audita querela, came the
Court of Appeals decision ordering
re-trial in the case of Thomas
Brady, convicted of assault in the
notorious Howard Street case. Brady
had been convicted on periured testi-
mony which District Attorney Mat
thew |. Brady had sought to conceal.
Today Brady is free on very nominal
bail, pending a re-trial which is Ger
tain to clear him Of the crime
charged.
The only difference between the
status of the Mooney Billings defense
and that of the Howard Street de
ltiludII, lIOll DulIlN ltSdl pOAliC VI
view, is that perjury in the Mooney
case was not discovered and estab-
lished until after the statutory period
for applying for a new trial had
expired In the case of Brady, ii
was discovered during the progress
or shortly after the trial.
But, as Byron c. Parker, attor-
ney for Mooney, convincingly points
out, perjury is perjury and the vic
tim, no matter how much time had
elapsed, is entitled to a remedy. In
the Howard Street case, the remedy
was obtained under the law; in the
Mooney frameup, the relief is sought
in equity.
1t will be extremely difficult fol
the District Court Of Appeals tc
deny the petition for Mooney in tn,
face of its decision in the Brady
case. The iurists, Langdon, Sturte-
want and Nourse, We're quite violent
in their condemnation of the lower
court for ruling out, during the pro
cess of the trial, evidence to show
perjury by a prosecution witness, II
upsetting the conviction, the Court
of Appeals invoked with an unusu-
ally religious fervor the rights OF
man" and so on.
