Destructive D;b1omacy

~ ECRETARY HUGHES leaves the heart
Of an important question untouched
when he replies to certain publicists
who sought enlightenment on the rather
confusing attitude of his department toward
urgent international problems, '"The United
States is not member of the League and
has no authority to act as If 1t WERE"
That it is not member is all too evident
from the economic as we'll as political his
tory Of the last two years; selfish Isolation
pays it's material as we'll as moral penalties.
But the fact that our Government is not as
ISOLATED with the League Of Nations war
rants in no wise a policy of boorishness to-
ward the liberal principles for which the
latter stands and the humanitarian services
it seeks to render. That fact does not justi-
fy what the New York World we'll terms,
STUDIED discourtesy" and "a fixed course Of
indifference and even unfriendliness to
everything the League plans and under
takes"
American craftsmanship, within both the
major parties, advocated permanent court
of International justice long before the
League of Nations came into existence; but
now our Department of State will have
nothing to do with that tribunal because for
sooth the League is for 1t. On the same
petty ground America Is excluded from her
due part in international efforts to suppress
the white slave" traffic and to regulate
trade in drugs; she cannot join even in CO.
operative measures for the protection of pub
lie health. No matter how sound principle
may be nor how deserving a project, if it
is touched by that co-working group of some
fifty countries known as the League Of Ma
tions America must stand idle and sulk
apart.
Such is the posture to which we have de-
scended from world-leadership; such is the
vision of those whose idea of constructive
diplomacy is to destroy what was achieved
for the common veal of mankind in the days
of Wilson.

INOUISITIVE MOTHERS -IN-LAW-By Dorothy Dix

as we'll. It means that the old have no life of
their own, no hopes, no plans for the future.
They only live through those about them. They
must feed on other peoples interest.
Nothing happens to them. They have no ad-
ventures. Nobody writes them gay and inter
esting letters. Their own friends are as dull
and dead as they are Nothing is going to
happen to them but a funeral so they must
snatch what they can out of other peoples
lives.
Surely, when we think of that we should not
begrudge them the crumbs of interest that fall
from our over full table, and we should bear
more patiently the endless questioning about
matters that are no concern of theirs.
1t is troublesome, and tiresome, to have to
stop to explain to an old woman that it was
Mary Jones who just called on the telephone
and she said that her cook had left, and her
baby had the Group, but that meager and in
nccuous piece of news gives the old lady
something to think about for the next two
hours. 1t is hidous bore to have to recount
to an old man every single step of your
progress downtown and back, but it gives a
touch of interest to his long day, and surely
these things shall be accounted unto us for
merit when we, too, come to the time of life
when we are spiritual parasites, living upon the
| fresh young lives of our children and grand
children.
| Senility, however, is the only excuse for
family curiosity. Under three-Score-and- 1t
| is absolutely unjustifiable, and anyone who in
dulges in the vice should be boiled il oil as
the only punishment that fits the crime.
Every decent human soul has its reserve It
has its secret chamber across whose door "No
Admittance' is written 1t has its love of
privacy that 1t jealousy guards, and 1t resents
as an indefensible offense having these out
ragged.
The unacknowledged wish of almost every
heart is to be able to to live ones own life
without being watched, and without having to
give an account for every single act one does
The highest bliss of which we can conceive is
not to be called upon for explanations and
| excuses. This is impossible in the average home
where family curiosity gets in its deadly work
and where one cannot even buy toothbrush
without having to tell about the old one having
worn out, and how one happened to need new
one, and at what shop one bought it, and what
one said to the clerk and the clerk replied
and so on, adnauseum.
1t is to escape family curiosity that families
| break up and 60 live as far from each other
as they can. |~
The moral of all of which is that we should
| abolish the questionable on the hearthStone
Perhaps if we ruthleSsly suppressed our Gu
riosity in our youth we would ask fewer ques-
tons when we are old, and SO be less of an
atr1iction to those who have to endure u.s.

WHEN WATER INTOXICATES
(By Science Service)

ROCHESTER, Mimi, July 17.-Water in
excess is an intoxicant With the aid OF an
extract from. one of the ductless glands and
also without such distance in controlling
thirst, Dr. Leonard G.. Rowntree of the
Mayo Clinic has proved that excessive water
drinking by either man or animals intoxi-
Gates.
"Water intoxication," he says, els hard
to produce as nature mas PROVIDED against
the accumulation of water in the body in
poisonous amounts. Through thirst the in
take of water is regulated to the body's
needs. Unless the intake is greatly IN ex-
cess, the output through the kidneys and the
skin takes care of the surplus.
GIN order to control the thirst, an extract
from the small ductless gland at the base
Of the brain was used. Under the influence
of this drug, the patient kept drinking water
until he developed marked headache, nausea,
a staggering gait, unstead1ness OF muscle
and inability to stand or walk, which lasted
for few hours.
This same process was tried with dogs
with even more striking results Cats, rab-
bits, and guinea pigs were also sent on
dangerous water jag by the excessive taking
of ordinary drinking water or dlstllled water
irrespective Of the temperature OF, the fluid
and without the aid of the glandular extract.
Although the quantities or water are excess
sive, about an ounce per pound OF pody
weight every hour, the amount ABSORBED IS
definitely limited. T. intoxication is not ac-
companied by significant changes in body
temperature or by constant or marked
changes in the blood volume. Blood pressure
is somewhat increased.
The commissions o. water poisoning are
cerebral in origin and of extreme violence at
times, usually lasting from one to ten or fif-
teen minutes. A strong salt solution admin
istered intravenously after the early evidence
of toxicity prevents, as rule the onset OF
commissions and coma. All the symptoms OK
uremia can be experimentally induced by ex-
cessive water.

MARSHAL FOCH'S BOB CAT

No animal in recent years has received
the recognition and advertising Of the bob
cat or wild cat given by the American
Legion to General Joffre at the recent
Legion convention at Kansas City. and
which now looks at visitors through bars
at the Paris geological park.
During it's short life of three months
prior to the Kansas City convention, 1t
knew only the Montana state adjutant,
his wife, few friends, and the collie dog.
Gentle, very playful, friendly, 1t romped
the house. and rolled over the dog in play
full mood.
It was a sad parting when the bob
cat was bundled into an airship with the
adjutant and his companion for its flight
of nearly 500 miles, from Miles City to
Kansas City. No wild animal ever had
such ride. At night, when the av1ators
found lodging where they landed, the con-
fiding kitten left it's bed to crawl under
the bed clothes between the aviators. 1t
took it's place in the airship as matter
of course. It refused to be led, but fol-
lowed like a dog, the leash dragging.
The noise and roar Of the convention
amazed the gentle animal. Transferred
from friendly hands to those who knew
only that it was a wild cat, Gagged, lsolat-
ed. always among noise and strangers, it's
whole life was changed. Could the
Partisan children know Of it's sweet and
happy kitten life they would feel diff
ferently, perhaps, toward the little Ameri.

Mr.. Jenkins has lately been attracting
great interest by anoCner invent of his, an
instrument for sending pictures by radio. He
has already sent pictures successfully and
now he is working to send moving pictures
by radio. He knows how it is to be done, but
he estimates that it will be about year be-
fore the necessary additional instruments for
the higher speed will be completed The
instruments for all Of his work have to be
made in his own laboratory, or else he has to
have them made at great expense and diff
Guilty by manufacturers. The necessary ap-
paratus or parts are not commercially avail
able,
Sending moving pictures by .adio is mere
ly an amplifcatfon of the method by which
ordinary pictures can be sent, the inventor
says The main principle Of the camera used
In all Of his work is prismatic ring, new
optical shape in glass.
by means Of these prismatic rings and
photo-electric cell at the sending station the
light characteristics which make UP picture
are converted into electric current character
istic," Mr.. Jenkins explains. "These in turn
modulate radio waves employed as carriers.
When these arrive as receiveing station the
electric characteristics are changed back into
picture characteristics by means of another
pair Of prismatic rings and light valve and
the scene at the sending station is reproduced
with fidelity.
can actual scene may be transmitted as
readily as a drawing or photograph At the
several receiving stations it is reproduced
on a Photographic negative with duplicate
prints or on moving picture screen for
direct viewing.
"The daily papers may get pictures of
news events broadcasted from the immediate
scene without the delay of any Photographic
process at the sending end Paris and Lon
don events coming west will be seen in
America some hours before they happen by
the clock.
ga criminal suspect may be stood UP in
front of q -broadcasting machine and his
image appear in every police station in the
country equipped with a suitable receiving
instrument. Detectives could be called in
to look at him and IDENTIFY him as his pic
ture is shown on screen, or photographs
can be made by radio and filed away in DO
lice stations for future use.
1.-THE instrument would have tactical val
ne in event Of war. A battle on sea or land
could be watched as it occurred from the
offices Of the chiefs in command at Wash
ington."
But the greatest volume of business when
radio pictures are in use will come from the
homes, Mr.. Jenkins concludes. BY sending
music on one wave 'ength and pictures on
another an entire opera may be enjoyed
through both ear and eye. Looking in, as
well as listening in, is to be the next indoor
family sport.
