Alvin Hall and Jack Estes, the two
Moscow boys who had the good Judg-
ment to report to the prosecuting at
torney's office when they had seen
two suspicious looking men cache
some equally suspicious articles I'm
der an old warehouse, are to be COM
mended. Many boys would not have
given the matter a second thought
The quick grasp Of the situation by
these boys has resulted in the arrest
of two men who evidently have a long
record as bank robbers, and will re-
suit in their elimination from the
game, while otherwise they might
have gone on indefinitely. 1t pays
for boys as we'll as men to keep their
eyes open to what is going on around
them.

Occasionally we hear that Europe
wants the moral support II the adj
vice of America in her present
troubles, which are of long standing
and apparently far from being at an
end. AS a matter of fact Europe has
refused to take our advice and doesn't
give a durn for our moral support.
What each European nation really
does want is that the United States
take the part of that particular nation
in it's troubles with its neighbors.
There is no particular effort made to
conceal the fact that each nation
wants Uncle Sam to play the part of
Santa Claus in the European game,
and that each nation wants, to be the
exclusive beneficiary of the Santa
Claus l%iberality.

The Worlds London correspondent
reports that within the last fortnight
the three greatest steel magnates OF
Europe have said privately that they
were convinced that a Franco-German
metal trust in inevitable. The three
magnates quoted are SHINES, Schnei-
der, who is head of the great French
firm of Creusot, and de Wendell, head
of the Lorraine steel industries.
Nature intended such a combina-
ton to exist. The coal and coke of
the Ruhr, the iron of Lorraine and
the steel mills of Belgium are an
economic unit which in the long run
it is impossible to break up. They
can only be worked satisfactorily in
cooperation. Since neither France
nor Germany can ever permanently
control the whole area, the only solu-
ton in the end is joint control.-New

Following considerable discussion
over the rumor that Senator w. E.
Borah would visit Soviet Russia dur
ing the coming summer, the senator
that he will not go abroad,
and the report has gained circulation
through the press that he will spend
the summer in the west, presumably
in Idaho. This may be taken to mean
that the senator will spend the sum-

a little fishing and camping, per-
haps, and incidentally making an in
spection of his political fences.
