DlTTE. TOWARDS THE STARS. ~ Asrtln
Anderson Neso. Translated ~ Asia 'h' N'"-
land Aenney Holt.
IN the blackest abysm Of the Copenhagen
slums Ditte, her generous heart still un-
broken By the betrayals Of her adolescence
n and young womsnhood, shines as the
presence Of incorruptible motherhood To
her arms she gathers not only her own chill
dren, born out Of wedlock By the passion
Of man. but @she could not see little one
without wishing il between her hands;
chids weeping was enough 20 make her
heart pregnant with the tenderest mother
feelings" Her most expensive amusement
is a Sunday on the commons; her most luera-
tive employment wins her q few miserable
pence at sewing. but the machine Is taken
from her By the sharpiug practices Of the
agency, and she must wash down stairs, or
perform similar delightful occupations lest
the spendor OF civilization become a byWord
among the sayages.
Huge rats gnaw on the stairs, scrabble
along the cutters, promenade the floor at
night while the children shiver under the
wafer-thin bed clothes. Little Georg steals
Goals from the yards that he may gain a few
more pence for Mother Ditto At school he
Is grayely presented with a tooth brush, and
advised about his diet. Little Annie is lost.
The papers publicly scold Ditte for not being
married. for not cooking nourishing food On
her earnings Of twopence a day Tor not. in
fact being an aTluent member Of the We'll
fare Committee. In the yards a van crushes
Georg, and despite the compensatory honor Of
a public funeralfor the "little thief" Dttes
heart is at last broken by undernourishment
and oyerwork, by wonder at the cruelty Of
life, by the rack Of the tough world.
In the four volumes Of "Pele the Con-
queror7 and the three OF "Ditte" the Danish
novelist Nexo does not 90 about collecting
copy" for his forthcoming" novel like A
migratory and assduous slot machine. He
does not write about the lives he has never
lived, nor has he disguised himself as a
workman that he might get "stud" about
the lnternationale. or as a salesperson that
he might amass the vernaeuar Of ribbon
counter girls. The fact that a novel is auto
biography does not, Of course, make {.
better novel; but the fact that novel could
noe under any circumstances be autobiog.
raphy the adventures OF soul among
thwarted masterpieces. certainly makes you
suspect the author OF presenting cases in
stead Of presenting life

More business, more sympathy.
These are the principles which are
to guide the Veterans Bureau in
future, enunciated by Col. Charles
r. Forbes. director, at the opening
of the second annual conference of
the fourteen district office managers
yesterday.
The present sessions, said Colonel
Forbes, will mean "the making and
the realization OF a complete opera
tive business organization to inject
more business into the bureau and
to make 1t a sympathetic agency
having to do with this great prob
lem that we are all struggling to
solve" = .--...
The district budget system was
advocated by Colonel Ijams.. man.
ager OF district offices, and his
assistant, c. G.. Senseney, while the
necessity of cooperation in all
bureau functions was stressed by
d. c. Hollenga. Certain changes
will be made in the medical policy.

cussion under craftsmanship of Col.

SHIPPING BILL .
PASSAGE AIDED

Frank Opposition to U. s. Mer-

BY JOSEPH GOLDSTROM.
Universal Service.

Great Britain's frank and open
declaration OF war upon the Ameri-
can merchant marine has resulted
in unified determination by the
Harding Administration and its
supporters in Congress to enact the
ship subsidy bill as soon as 1t can
be rushed through.
This was declared with positive
emphasis today by a high official
of the Administration close to
When the British foreign office
forced the transfer of American
consular officials from Newcastle
on.Tyne because they were too sue
cessful in legitimately diverting
business to American vessels they
aroused the State Department to
realization of the need for decisive
action.
Great Britain,s move. brought
about by British shipping interests,
besides having the effect Of uniting
and energizing the supporters of
the ship subsidy bill in Congress.
also has brought 1t new supporters
who now realize that. action Is i'm
peratiye II the American merchant
marine is to be kept on the seas.
Immediately after Congress reas-
sembles in November the ship sub
sidy bill will be taken up and
driven through with as much force
and speed as the Administration
forces on the floors and in the COM
mittee rooms Of both Houses can
apply to II.
The State Department meanwhile
Is conducting a complete and thor
ough investigation into the whole
procedure at Newcastle-on-Tyne. so
that It will be In position to make
a protest that will stick.
United States Government Off
cials in position to know are con-
vinced that the canceling Of the
exequaturs OF the American Off
cials was unwarranted: that the lat
ter did no more than British con-
suls in all parts Of the world are
called upon to do to advance Brit
ish interests. The charge that they
gave preference to passports OF
British passengers who sailed On
American instead OF British ships
is declared to be unfounded.
It is impressed upon American
consuls when they are appointed
that among their chief concerns is
the duty TO advance American bust
ness interests legitimately wherever
and whenever they can. Consul
Slater and Vice Consul Brooks are
reported to have been unusually
successful in this respect. and for
this reason drew down upon them
the revengeful wrath OF Brit
ish shipping interests operating
through the foreign office.
