South. Only from sparse, cold place
could this man have come. Looking
at him that way, it is natural that he
should want a Kellogg somewhere in
an important post in his cabinet. He
would have to have some icily kindred
spirit about him, and some other al
most as icily calculating a soul close
by, as he has Mellon.
1t takes such men to originate such
fantastic and fearsome thing as the
present policy toward Latin America.
The craftiness, the mingled pseudo
righteousness and callousness of the
whole thing could never have come
from a tempestuous Roosevelt, or a
scholarly and idealistic Wilson. It
could not have come from plains
man, a cosmopolite or real noun
taineer. 1t had to come from some
parsimonious rock-strewn, narrow
mountainside where even the acres
are shrunken and shriveled, where
nothing reaches it's growth and where
the sun is warm and effulgent only for
short space each year.
This shield of pretended justice over
lance of canny conquest is cunning,
relentless, in way imperturbible. A
series of seemingly desultory on
slaughts in reality are calculated
parts of definite program which is
so little understood because all the
battle songs are dressed in the garb
of hymnals.
Never has America seen this brand
of craftsmanship. But, strangely
enough, it suits the new financial i'm
perialism as not other could suit.
Nicaragua is invaded and all but con-
quered, without any declaration of
war, her government from now on
only a puppet, directed by the calcu-
lating frigidity of official Washington.
Her puppet president announces that
her puppet congress has approved a
Wall street loan of million dollars,
for which the railroads and the ma
tional bank are to be the security,
with, of course, American marines on
guard. This diplomacy of the mig
gardly hillsides where the suns rays
fall slantingly is something new, but
it is getting results of a kind most
appreciated in certain quarters.
How long it will be successful re-
mains to be seen. China is proving
SO much a stumbling block, SO much
a battling thing outrageosuly thrown
into the otherwise satisfactory cur
rent of affairs that anything may
come of it.

Q.-Did organized labor oppose the
United States policy of expansion
that followed the Spanish-American
war?
A.-Yes. The 1918 convention of
the A. F. Of L. protested against the
"new and far-reaching policy follow
ing the war with Spain of imperial
ISM or expansion which will serious
ly burden the wage workers Of our
country by thrusting upon us large
standing army and an aristocratic
navy and threaten the perpetuation
of our republic"

Q.-Are dust explosions an impOr-
tant menace to life and limb?
A.-Yes. Dust explosions have been
responsible for a series of disasters
involving large losses of life and
property extending over long period
of years. A recent federal govern
ment census of manufacturers esti-
mates that at least $4,000 industrial
plants are subject to the hazards of
dust explosions.

Today in
Washington History
BY DONALD A. CRAIG.

December II, 1817.-Since Mrs. Mon
roe. wife of the President, inaugu-
rated the custom of not making first
calls and not returning calls there
has been complaint and some actual
resentment on the part of many per
sons who have been accustomed TO
different state of affairs, but it is now
beginning to be realized that Mrs.
Monroe acted for the best. The CITY
Of Washington Gazette said today that
lowing to the increase in the popula-
ton of the District the task of the
Presidents wife returning all the calls
was such an onerOus one as TO make
it practically, impossible However,
Mrs. Monroe has urged Mrs. Adams,
wife of the Secretary of State, to OBJ
serve the old custom. But Mrs.
Adams. it is understood, has frankly
declared that she does not intend TO
make first calls. although she will re-
turn calls.
During the easy-going reign of the
gracious and vivacious Dolly Madison,
and in prior years, the President S
wife was expected to make calls on
the wives of Government officials and
members of Congress and even on
strangers who came to the city. This
torture" Mrs. Madison submitted to
simply because she saw no way to
abandon If. But Mrs. Monroe has
taken firm stand against the prac
tice, so far as the Presidents wife is
concerned.
There has been much favorable com
ment in the press Of the Nation upon
the message Of President Monroe to
Congress this month, in which he said
Washington is becoming worthy of
the maine of a Capital City and the
whole country is taking pride in its
growth The National Intelligencer
today is pleased that old 'jealousies"
are disappearing.

consult a physician about the swol-

examination, as such swelling may be

not neglect these two points If you
want to keep healthy and young.
go In my opinion a woman of your
size looks better with neat long
hair coiffure. Moisten your hair
with a curling fluid before winding
it on the curriers' as this will help
keep the wave in longer. 1t is better
taste not to use a great deal of make
up, but if you are pale you may use
a little touch of rouge. More fresh
air and outdoor exercise will bring
natural color to your cheeks. Eat
fresh fruits and green vegetables
every day also. Stimulate your cir
culation by taking a cold or tepid
shower bath in the morning followed
by a brisk rundown with a coarse
towel. (4) Scrub the skin every night
with warm water and pure soap,
