BRITISH NAVAL
BASE ARGUMENT
is TONED DOWN
Little DiSquietude Caused in
London by View of
Americans.
By HARRY L. PERCY
r-uft,a pes. stan Corresnoudeu4

LONDON. Oct. 3.-The specter Of
British naval bases in the western
Atlantic. raised in some American
circles, is causing little disquietude
here.
Whether the bases are discussed
by Premier Macdonald and Presi-
dent Hoover at Washington, or
whether they will come up at the
flve-power naval conference in jan
uary. observers here believe there
will be little difficulty in reconciling
American and British viewpoints
concerning them.
The argument in London is that
the bases never were and never will
be a menance to the United States.
No Well Equipped Base
With the exception of the Royal
Canadian navy's dockyard at Hal
flax, which for some years practi-
cally has been closed down, Britain
has no well-equipped bases across
the Atlantic. Further arguments
are set forth as follows:
Bermuda. the headquarters Of the
America and West Indies squadron.
lacks facilities for repairing heavy
ships, and therefore could not be
used as battle fleet base Further
its proximity to the American
mainland would render it liable to
overwhelming attack by both sea
and air.
Bridgetown. in Barbados. and
Trinidad simply are fuel stations,
too remote from Britain to be sus-
ceptible of defense against deter
mined assault by an enemy in the
western Atlantic.
Termed Direct Threat
That argument applies with still
greater force to Jamaica, which
has been termed a direct threat
to the Panama canal. Jamaica is
only $40 miles from the Atlantic
end of the canal, so that a naval
force operating from Jamaica would
be within easy reach of its objective.
But since no naval force can be
dispatched safely to distant base
in time of war unless its COM
munications are secured, the
essential factor in the problem is
not the distance from Jamaica to
the canal. but the distance of
Jamaica from England on one hand
and from the United States on the
other.
Finally. experts here point out,
Britain's Atlantic bases are so light
" fortified they probably would be
at the mercy of a modern cruisers
guns.

HOMELESS FOLKS

AS people gather in their COM
Portable homes, surrounded with the
well being that American life gives
them, they can well give a thought
to the great number of wanderers
who have no homes. Thanksgiving
and Christmas are holidays when
philanthropic organizations gather
companies of these folks together
and give them one square meal. 1t
is kindly act that may have results.
There is a great company of semi
wanderers, more or less down and
out, who are not satisfied to locate
in one spot. Their services are not
very valuable. They drift from one
place to the next, always hoping that
the next town will give them some
more hopeful chance.
Then there is the bottom layer of
absolute tramps and vagrants, men
with literally no place to lay their
heads, who subsist by beggary or the
most irregular work, hopeless and
helpless creatures, not capable of
holding down any regular job.
What can be done for all these ir-
regular people, without means of
support and commonly without the
knowledge of skilled trades, or who
lack industry and concentration?
Some will say that it does no good to
assist them by charity, that when
you help them once, they become all
the more dependent.
Yet unpromising as such people
look, one can never be quite sure
what is in the heart of any man. His
vagrancy may be due to a run of
hard luck, one misfortune after an
other. Plenty of cases can be found
of seemingly unreliable men who
turned from their idle ways and
made good. It is the glory of many
charitable organizations and people,
that undismayed by the number of
unworthy folks, they yet keep doing
their kind acts, and keep finding
seemingly down and out people who
are not really so, and who with one
more chance have turned from their
wandering ways to reliable industry.

THE GREETING CARD
EXCHANGE

Some statistical expert should give
us figures about how many greeting
cards the American people ordinar-
lily exchange at the holiday period.
There are, of course, many persons
who never mail single card, yet
there are many who mail scores or
even hundreds. Seemingly the num-
ber mailed must run far up into the
hundred millions, possibly into the
billions.
When you receive a card from that
associate Of former days who you
thought had forgotten you, life some
how seems cheerier, and you feel
that it has given you some substan-
tial fruitions.
The people who send out very
many such cards may get tired Sc
lecting and addressing them. Yet
they have the consolation that they
are not going to be forgotten, and
that their circle of friendship re-
mains a permanent treasure.

LATE GIFT PURCHASERS

It was remarked to a newspaper
man who had been writing number
of articles and paragraphs on the
subject of early Christmas sending,
that it is highly desirable for people
to follow this plan, "if they have the
money"
"But," said his friend, what are
you going to do if you have family
of children, and if it takes all your
money from week to week to provide
the every day necessities, SO that you
haven't a dollar ahead? The only
way you can provide your Christmas
gifts is to deny yourself or the fam
lily something that is absolutely
needed. You naturally wait until the
last moment for your shopping"
Sympathy must be felt for folks in
that plight. Life has not given them
its share of good things. Being so
hard pressed, they can't get the fun
out of Christmas that the rest Of us
obtain.
This description applies, however,
to only a small fraction of our pop
ulation here on the Delaware PENN
sula. Most people have some money
ahead, so that they could as well
buy their gifts three or four weeks
in advance. If they fail to do so, it
is because they neglect to put their
minds on the gift question.
When people are really hard up,
they can well ask the question if
they could have helped this situa-
ton. Some of them have had such ill
fortune that they could not have
avoided it. But there are some who
always spend out their money as
soon as they get it, even if many
Of the expenditures are injudicious
and unnecessary. Such ones would
get a great deal more out OF life II
they would budget their incomes, and
set aside some portion for savings,
and some part for unworried partici-
patton in the happy Christmas fes-
tival. Christmas Savings Clubs as
conducted by the banks in every
town on this peninsula, make it pos
sible to make these savings. Join
the club in your home town bank
and see how easy it is to save money.

A CHRISTMAS MESSAGE

Christmas is sometimes called the
children's holiday, because so much
of the thought of the day centers
around them. 1t celebrates the birth
of the Holy Child, and today the main
thought in every home blessed with
the little ones, is to make it happy
day for them. The gleeful faces of
these little ones as they see their
sparkling Christmas tree and their
lavish gifts, compensates the parents
for whatever sacrifice they have
made. 1t is appropriate that the
world should turn to the child heart
on this day of days, because that
heart of youth has something to
teach us all. This thought was ex-
pressed by Jesus when he uttered
those most notable words, Except
ye become as little children, ye shall
not enter the kingdom of heaven"
To many this may seem a state
ment of oriental imagery, not to be
taken literally. But there are GER
tain qualities of simplicity and un-
pretentiousness and sincerity and
lack of mercenary spirit, that are
characteristic of children, which
people need to retain through their
adult life. AS people grow older they
tend to lose these traits. AS said the
poet, Shades of the prison house
close about the growing boy
The heart of childhood is one of
hope and confidence, it is trustful and
confiding. The strivings and grasp
ings of later life should not so large
ly obliterate that child spirit.
Christmas should be happy day,
because people lose for the moment
so much of the self seeking that the
years have brought to them, and for
once they think of others. And
Christmas is not all it should be for
the children themselves, unless they
learn to give as well as to get. If
they simply receive presents, and do
not make any with money they
earned themselves, they do not get
the best of their own holiday.
