More Rubber the Better.
"It has been suggested there is a
possibility that the development Of a
1000, 000-acre rubber plantation in
Brazil may ruin the rubber market
The reverse Is true. The more rubber
the better it will be for the rubber in
dustry all the way through-and that
applies to synthetic rubber as we'll
Prices will keep up instead Of dropping,
for surplus of rubber will force new
uses. There are thousands of new uses
for rubber in its different forms, but
we will never discover all these until
we produce so much that we will have
to study how to utilize 1t. Supply
makes demand, and then demand in
creases the supply.
ut was only few years ago that
rubber floors came into use. We looked
at them with bit of suspicion. Now
they are in great demand. Rubber for
top dressing of pavementS is being tried.
There is a probability it will prove as
good as anything now used, possibly
better. We are reaching point where

MAGAZINE SALES
WILL Be PRObED
Disabled Veterans Leader to
DeIve With Aides Into
Street Business"

The sale of magazines on the streets
here, with the appeal that the returns
are to be used to aid disabled war vet
Grams, will be the subject of confer
ence called to meet soon by G. Claude
Babcock, commander of the District of
Columbia Department of the Disabled
American Veterans. Numerous COM
paints and inquiries about this prac-
tice have been received, Mr.. Babcock
explained yesterday.
Comdr. Babcock has written to Elwood
Street director of the Community
Chest; Harlan Wood, commander of the
District Department of the American
Legion, and Hawley L. Miller, COM
mander of the District Department of
the Veterans of Foreign Wars. saying
that the practice of selling magazines
on the streets has reached such pro-
portions that the veterans owe it to the
people of Washington to end the sales,
If 1t is found that impositions are be-
ing worked.
while each of the recognized serv-
ice organizations regularly is issuing a
publication for its members, none OF us
are selling these on the Streets" said
the Disabled American Veteran leader
IF these men who are pedding have
claims before the Veterans Bureau for
disabilities. each of our outfits have
1iaiSon officers who will assist in the
preparation and presentations of claims
without cost On the other hand, if they
are not really disabled they should not
be allowed to gather in money with a
plea to relieve the disabled, and we will
assist thin in obtaining legitimate en-
ploylI-ent.
IT think the public and all veterans
have personal interest in this situa-
ton, and I think that the representa-
tiveS of the Community Chest, the Vet
Grams of Foreign Wars, the Legion and
the Disabled American Veterans can
work out plan to present to the cor
poration counsel and the Police Depart
ment for any action that may be in
dictated.
mot only is it intended to go into
the stopping of people on the streets,
but we also would investigate those
who go from house to house."

things we mine, but the things we
grow. 81
what is true Of production of auto
mobiles and rubber Is true Of every
thing that can be used by people. There
is no danger of over-production of
common necessities and commodities
if means of pushing these things out
into the world market are provided.
The danger is in the other direction
Mature stands ready to supply every
thing needed to keep the world busy
and happy and peaceful. 1t Is up to
thoughtful men and women to provide
the means of helping nature on the job.
If they do that, war and war talk and
preparations for war will go into the
discard of history.
1.-THE States of this Union are at
peace with each other because they are
bound together, fundamentally, by use

DETROIT, August 3.-Industry rath-
err than international pacts and agree
ments is the real guaranty OF world
peace, according to Henry Ford.
More industries, new industries, i'm
provement and expansion OF present
industries in the world-that is the
cure for war;" Mr.. Ford says.
81 was asked by some OF the women
attending a recent convention OF the
Women's International League Tor Peace
and Freedom, in Detroit, what DEFINITE
thing they or anybody could do to make
world peace more certain" Mr.. Ford
remarked. My answer was, More IN
dustry.'
"A man who has a definite job that
keeps him busy and contented is In no
mood for fighting. The same Is true
of a nation and of all the world. Put
all the people in the world profltably
to work, and keep them so, and war
would never be heard of again.
THAT is exactly why am In the
automobile business. If 1 knew any
better industry, any could do better,
I would go into it. If 1 could get into
any industry that would reach more
people and influence their lives, Woulc
give up making automobiles and go
into that business.
More Industry Aids Peace.
Get more industry into the world
your wars would vanish. The forces
that make war don't know anything
about peace and the real foundation ct
peace.
mo, there is not the slightest danger
of getting the world overcrowded with
industries. Human needs and desires
are forever expanding and taking on
new variety. Change is the only really
permanent thing. That applies to
every form of the worlds work. There
is never lack of opportunity for new
and useful inventions which may be
the beginning of new industries.
What the world most needs Is not
peace pactS and international agree
ments to keep the peace, though these
are good as far as they go. Most
needed are young men and women
trained to be leaders in industry, in
ventors of new and useful things and
processes, and leaders Of the workers
who can make the useful things.
TOO many new things? Too many
improvements of things now used by
the world? Ridiculous! Take automo-
biles. The world needs more automo-
biles, not fewer, and I don't see how
any limit of their use can be imagined.
More automobiles demand more and
better roads Roads open up any
country to industry and commerce.
And any country busy with industry
and commerce has no time or thought
for war.

Pope Denies That State
 Should Give Education

Vatican City. May 16 Rl-Educa- ton of the young is the responsi- bility of the church, and not of the state. Pope Plus declared in a speech to the pupils of Mondragone college, which the Osservatore Romano pub lished last evening.
 This pronouncement from the pontiff is seemingly at variance with the doctrine of fascism at hitherto expressed.
 All the state has to do in the line of education is to complete the in fluence of parents, said the pope.
 He affirmed that he did not intend to relinquish the church's precious charge held for centuries" of juve- nile upbringing.
 Mondragone college is a religious institution near Frascati in the en- virons of Rome.
 His holiness expressed the sama sentiments in another audience to- day with the pupils of the Tavania school of Venice.

EDUCATION AS AID
 T0L|TERARY TASTE
Proi. Hosdty Explains Hov
 Liking Can Be Developed

Professor Nicholas Moseley. pro- vost of Albertus MagnW college in New Haven, spoke at the regular meeting of the New Britain council of Catholic Women in the Knights of Columbus hall, last evening. on "The Development of Literary Taste Through Education" He said in part:
 "All education has three functions: first, to teach people why they are alive; second. to teach them how to live; and third, to teach them to en- joy life. The first of these consists in insulting 8 sound philosophy of life upon which men and women of all ages may base their religion, and the recognition and fulfllment of this function is the great asset which Catholic colleges have for Catholics. The second might be described as vo- cational training, in which one should include the general develop ment of mind and body 70 as to produce material success. The last can be described as the development of resources for rest and recreation. It is the last with which we are con- cerned tonight.
 "The great recreation open to the educated man or woman is reading, and. like most things which are of interest to any considerable propor- ton of mankind. reading is open to abuse as we'll as use. Whether what one reads is a help in life. or hin- drance. depends almost entirely upon the development of ones literary taste. Education can develop lit erary taste in several ways; first of all, the content of school and college course is so designed as to put be- fore young people in their plastic age examples of the very best, with the knowledge that people are in- clined to like that which they know. In tho second place. by analysis, . teacher can train his students in the elements which 70 to make up beauty and in the technique of style. Knowledge of these forms adds 8 real interest to reading.

In the same way. the great majority of people like to read a novel. They get from it some relief from the active cares and wor- ries of life by imagining themselves in the place of the hero or heroine. and they can be actually gripped by the excitement of the story.

It l, to be developed as quickly as na' tional conditions permit. taking perhaps hve to 10 years for realixa. tion. Expenses arc to be borne by the government.
 The first step in the campaign will be the formation next Monday of a national committee on temper anoe. It is to be headed by the sec retary of public health and contain ing representatives of all classes in- terested in public welfare.
 This national committee will have charge of the governments temper ance activities, having as its even. tual object prohibition of all alec, holic beverages except beer and wine. and public sale of these even to be denied to women and children A probable first step of the commit. tee will be promulsation of regula. tions permitting sale of hard liquor, only in sealed bottles to be consumed other than where purchased.
 Listed as hard" liquors are whis. key. gin and absinthe. Pulque. the drink most popular among Mexico'i poor. was not mentioned in the presidents announcement.
 The government will make every effort to aid in the adaptation oi breweries and distilleries to other pursuits. Other phases of the cam- paign include compulsory classes in Mexican schools in which the al- legged evils of the drink habit will be taught. . system of reducing in number dance halls and cabarets and providing sports activities to develop healthy physiques less like. ly, it is claimed. to demand alcohol as q stimulant.
