difficulty of having etchings properly

Joseph Pennell gave his time to pen

In one of the cases in this gallery

Joseph Pennell in etching and engraV-

inadequate these tools seem to the
intelligent observer, as compared to the

THE DANISH SOUND DUES AND
THE COMMAND OF THE BAL
TIC. BY Charles E. Hill, professor
or political science in George Wash
1ngton University. Durham: Duke
University Press.
THIS study offers good example of
scientific research, admirably H.
lustrating the modern way of arriv-
ing at the truth. The method involves
not only the discovery of facts in their
actual content and implication, but 1t
includes as we'll their sequence of
effect and influence. In this particu-
lar case the business began with fish.
An oddly slight thing to have trailed
it's way through 400 years Of history.
bringing about, finally, international
disagreements and their ultimate COM
position. This was the way of it,
Shoals of herring from some pisca-
tortaI economy of their own came an
nually In enormous numbers to the
Sound. an arm of the Baltic lying in
between Denmark and Sweden. With
the fish came fishermen. With this
growing industry came lords of do
main, levyfng dues fer fishing and
trading rights. And with this source
Of revenue came the struggle for con-
troll OF the Baltic between Denmark
and Sweden. And the matter of dues
spread from fish to any commerce
through this acquisitive waterway,
until 1t entangled the whole trading
world Of that time in protest, evasion,
reprisal and other forms Of dissent
from the exactions of the powers in
control. Out of this small beginning
years of contention passed in national
adjustments, in international conver.
sations and concessions and agree
ments. Here, worked out in a great
detail of facts and related facts.
stands a chapter OF history whose
lowiy beginnings grew not only to the
question of command of the Baltic,
but grew beyond this point even to a
really momentous international stu
alton. History becomes not only more
intelligible, but infinitely more inter
esting and even fascinating from such
studies as this one. Here from a
starting point so simple as to come
within the daily appreciation of any
of us there ensued great matter

Famine and pestilence,
threatened thousands of refu-l

Near-freezing temperatures

Relief has begun to pour into

From one end of the valley to the

their energies toward bolstering
crumbling levees and adequately

Many of the northern tributaries
