Second Line of Defense.

The merchant marine is univer-
sally recognized as the second line
of naval defense. 1t is -indispen-
sible in the time Of great national
emergency. 1t is commendable to
upbuild and maintain, because it is
the highest agency of peace and
amity, and bears no threat and in
cites no suspicion. And yet 1t is a
supreme assurance, without which
we should be unmindful of our
safety and unheeding Of our need
to continued growth and MAIN
tained influence.
/ am thinking of the merchant
marine of peace. Commerce is in
separable from progress and at
tainment. Commerce and its hand
maidens have wrought the greater
intimacy among nations, which
calls for understandings and guar
antees of peace However we work
it out, whatever our adjustments
are to promote international trade,
ii is inevitable that the hundred
millions here, outstanding in gem
ius and unrivaled in industry and
incalculable in their resources,
must be conspicuous in the worlds
exchanges We cannot hope to
compete unless We carry, and our
concord and our influence are sure
to be measured by that unfailing
standard which is found in ma
tion's merchant marine.

Behind are fifty or sixty women and
children falling down on their knees
in the dust and dirt every fifty feet
or so to pray. Between the prayers
they sing hymns.
These groups are repeated through
the long procession, two crossbearers

to three men lashing themselves.

The "magnifying violin" is similar to others except for the body, or sounding box. Instead of the body, Stern hasattached a cylindrical metal box out of which projects horn.
 When he draws the bow over the string, Stern says he gets a much louder sound out of the instrument. The lower tones are even superior to those produced on the regular violin, he adds
 Another surprising feature about this ''magnifying violin" is that it can be used for a recording instrument during the radio concerts. All that need be done is separate the cylindri- cal sounding box and horn from the rest of the instrument and attach it 1 to the telephone receivers.
