My return on the S. S. Allegheny
was a pleasant trip and if 1 should
live to see the winter of 1928 shall
again wend my way to the sunny
land of Florida and again enjoy the
hospitality of the Clearwater people.
In Clearwater
In Clearwater the sun shines bright,
While cool and starlit is the night.
The mocking bird sings clear at
dawn,
The nightengale when day is done.
In Clearwater great palms are
found
And beautiful flowers abound;
While orange groves of fadeless
green,
With fruit of gold make gay the
scene.
In Clearwater no SHOWS appear
No ice chains bind the lakelets
clear
The winter months are glad and gay,
In Clearwater where tourists stay.

indorsed the view that preparation for war, the piling up of ornaments. makes more and more for war and not for peace. No nation was better prepared for war than Germany in 1914. But did Germany get peace or make peace-in spite of all her pre- paration? She got only war! Tell your militaristic friends and elders that to prepare for peace by getting liction in terms, and an utter re- jection of the true psychology of peace program. We cannot expect to gain one thing merely by prepar- ing for its opposite. That course has been tried too often already. It squares neither with logic nor human nature and it is high time for sen- sible folks to admit it!
 When you e CTS or your contem- poraries say to you: Every nation must stand upon her own rights against all the nations of the world. and maintain her independence with the sword. if necessary then is the tlIlIS lO dSh lIlClII "lidt tHcS 4ii'dAi by the rights and independence of q nation. Then is the time to remind them how modern civilization makes all nations economically interdepen- dent. This last war proved that in terdependence beyond the shadow of a doubt No nation can hope to wage a successful war with arms and men alone. Every army marches on its stomach. And the great grain country of Canada and the United States did as much to win the last war as all the Belgians in the front | line trenches. There is no such thing as complete economic independence for any single nation today. Each nation profits by mutual exchange of it's natural resources and manu- factured products.

league and the world court that neither of these organizations threatens the autonomy or the ex- istence of the United States or any other nation-inside or out of either court or league. Tell them. you know that we have nations and governments today because we must have them. States or nations have come into existence to meet certain stated needs of great groups of people leading a common life. To provide peace. security. certain individual and social liberties. and to defend the proper rights of its citizenry. every national govern ment has grown up-and will con- tinue-in some form.
 Whenever you get the chance. remind your friends and recall to your own mind. that farewell mes sage of President Harding released just two days before his death in the summer of 1923. A nation which believes in the reign of law as prefera ble to the rule of force. must subscribe to an agency for laws just construction. l most de- voutly wish the United States to do its full part toward a national conscience toward securing the provision and strengthening the agencies for the peaceful settle ment of international disputes He then added these very plain words.
 "'The big thing is the firm es- tablishment of the world court. and our cordial adherence thereto. Al else is mere detail.'
 President Harding never put an issue more clearly The trouble in this country all along. since the founding of the league and the court, has been that in our lack of international understanding and our ignorance of our obligations in the worlds family of nations, we have made this world court and league issue a matter of party poli- tics and party loyalty. Yet all along-and today. when we still
New Britain herald., 1927-05-17

probably will long remain organized as independent political units. never theless it must be recognized that every national government faces problems quite outside its own bor- ders and power of control. And then cite to them these two examples chosen among many other pos sible.
 "First-The matter of growth in population. So rapid has it been in certain nations of late that coun tries of limited area find great diff tculty to cope with the problem of increased numbers. Medical science has reduced the death rate. in creased the birth rate. and ad- vanced the spa1 of life. Frank A. Vanderlip came back from Japan not so many years ago and summed up the difficulties of the mikado's government In these words: The problem of Japan today is 57,o0o,- 600 breakfasts, 57,ooo,ooo dinners and 57,o0O.00o suppers' There you have it. And England faces a simi- lar difficulty though in larger num- bers. The amount of land in some countries upon which food can be raised is restricted. and the time is coming. when they must find new ways to increase the food supply.
 "Second-The very nature of our modern industrial system and it's faulty methods of distributing profits and products has q part to play in the difficulties of maintain ing national independence. and also hand in the making of wars. We learn by applied science to pro- duce more with less workers than the local markets can consume. Then we have to reach out for for eign trade. Sometimes, just to maintain a market abroad and to protect our own market at home. we have made use of our national. diplomatic, naval and military forces.
 Then, so a step further. Admit to your friends. who approve the

lutely sure. If you want to be a world citizen. in relation 10 this par ticular problem of war. you must: "First-Remember that now is the
 time, in season and out of season to
 set forth the hideous beastliness. the
 abominable brutality, the indescrib- able destructiveness of modern war.
 and its awful inconsistency with the ideals and ways of Jesus and the
 Jewish prophets. which we here in
 America hold in common respect to- day.
 We must seek to ferret out and know
 the real causes of international mis- understanding. the seeds Of racial , bitterness and war. And when we discover them anywhere, we must prescribe them publicly for the
 damnable. dangerous things they are.
 Let me give you an example or two of specific ways in which we can all make it possible right here at
 home for Americans to take this first step toward international under standing. When you hear a man saying: There have always been wars and there will always be wars then is the time to nail that statement for a lie. There have been wars. And there may be more wars. But there need not be wars forever! Men said the same thing of duelling and slavery-and a dozen other human . abominations. But all these things have gone. And human nature can
 be taught to abominate what once 1 it held essential. We cannot con- demn all the wars of the past, but
 we can eradicate the causes of war 1 in time, and provide the machinery i to do so.
 When people say to you that: ! Preparedness for war is the only
 sure road to peace nail that state
 ment also for the half-truth that ii
 is. Since the last arms conferencee
 in Washington, our own American /, government has plainly and officially
New Britain herald., 1927-05-17

have had to stop and learn to think internationally. But we must learn too! And we can! Play up the good points of other nations when you talk about them. If you don't know any good points about other nations. set about finding some. Remember that the truth about America and the truth about Britain and Spain and France and Germany and Rus sia and Mextco and the rest is tho only thing that can permanently cre- ate understanding and peace.
 Prof. Robert McElroy. late of Princeton. appointed two years back to teach American history at Oxford. said in the New York Times pre- vious to sailing: Neither militarisln nor pacificism availeth anything. but a new vision.' In other words a new way of looking at other nations. Any way back in the midst Of the war days, when we were first beginning to think of the problems Of the peace, no less a statesman than Elihu Root said: The indispensable requisite of lasting peace is the cre- ation of. an international mind.'
 But. young men and women. this business of creating an international mind is something that no one of us can do for another. It will take individual initiative and persistent inquiry and perpetual curiosity on the part of every one of here to create international minds for our- selves capable of understanding bet- ter the problems of this imperfect world. But this much is sure. We must each one buckle down to that business"

 How does one acquire-or even begin to acquire-an International understanding
 These are questions we would all like to have answered. l am frank to confess that-to my mind much of the discussion has been vague and tenuous, and far too ln- definite for the ordinarily objective mind of youth 10 grasp. Neverthe- less, out of an experience of man. discussions with college and high school students. it is possible 10 glean certain definite convictions. It is my purpose to range these convictions-in which I have found general agreement among students very. much like you. who sit before me here, to range these convictions against the wall for your inspec- tion-and if they fail to satisfy your ideals of what a world citi- zen ought to be thinking and do- ing, why then. you may shoot them down like spies at sunrise'- and the world will be none the wiser.

 And it brings us to the next ques- tion. Can a world citizen be also an American patriot?
 Well. why not? Provided. of course. he has the right sort of loy- alty to the real ideals of America.
 There is tremendous, immeasur- able. indisputable need in America and in other nations of the world today. for better international un- derstanding, no one is ever too young to begin thought he may be too old! Every world citizen should stand for patriotism. the right sort of pa- triotism. He should be eager to learn to understand and to teach to others the principles and ideals of our American political order. He should make much of the great days in our nations calendar. He should pray for the nation and its officials. He should reverence his countrys flag. and make it a symbol just as much of his country in peace as in war.
 But, even while he is loyal to his own country. and its best interests. even while he protests against all those who-in ignorance or to serve some selfish end-distort the true aims of his nation-he must culti- vate assiduously. determinedly and continually the international mind.

Our Greens would rather crawl on

than to organize political power of
the working class and lead them into

thing in their power to fight together
with the employers against any and
all attempts of the workers to set up
their own political party. In the trade
unions, they are fighting bitterly
against those who stand for indepen-
dent political action of the workers.
AS far as the labor movement is
concerned and the defense of the most
elementary rights of the workers, the
main issue of the 1923 elections will
be campaign for independent poll

Dor party. No matter how hard the
trade union movement is being
pressed by the employers and their
government, no matter how openly
the republican and democratic parties
are fighting the workers, our con-
sentative leadership will not join a
campaign for labor party.
This campaign will have to develop

industry, it gives US a slice of the
happenings there that are worth
while viewing.
The story tells of Ethel Grierson,
played by Frances Dale, who leaves
New York for Hollywood to make
some easy money. She takes along
as her bogus aunt, the matron of a
New York night club. The matron
is Alison Skipworth who plays the
part in her usual superior fashion.
Reaching the mecca of the movies,
Ethel, who pretends that she is con-
vent graduate, is employed by an I'M
scrupulous millionaire who directs her
to blackmail a noted motion picture
comedian Eddie Trafford, portrayed
by Alan Brooks.
Eddie treats Ethel square, and of
course she falls in love with him. In
the end everybody is happy when the
comedian holds in his arms the girl
who was supposed to ruin his career.
While the play is machine-made to
a large degree, using the sure-fire
formula, it is sprinkled with bright
lines.
In addition to those named, the rest
of the cast is adequate, adding all
that is possible to the play.
The production is staged by that
veteran Sam Forrest, who by his
showmanship deserves major share
of the credit for any success the play
will Secures. A. P.
