PEACE CAMPAIGN
PLANNED BY GROUP
n
Conference on Cause and
1 Cure of War to Seek Doc
1 trine'S Interpretation.

. One of its main detectives having
been accomplished In the signing of
the Kellogg pact, the National Confer
Nnce on the Cause and Cure Of War
ended its sessions today after a meet
ing of the newly chosen national COM
fflittee to conduct an educational cam
paign in the preservation Of peace be-
fore reaSSembling in Washington next
year.
That this campaign will deal mainly
with Latin American relations was indi-
Gated in the closing address Of Mrs;
Carrie Chapman Gait, the national
chairman, who made a plea for new
Interpretation of the Monroe Doctrine,
which she regarded as stumbling block
In the way Of peace in the Western
Hemisphere.
Public Education Urged.
The necessity Of educating the public
mind in the desire for maintaining
peace was impressed upon the dele
gates, who had determined to meet
here again next year rather than in
1891 for fear that the impression might
get abroad that the Kellogg pact re-
nouncing war was the sole aim OF the
conference. During the coming year
efforts will be directed largely toward
obtaining this new Interpretation OF the
Monroe Doctrine as fixed policy of the
Government for all the world to know.
j The century-old doctrine, Mrs. Gait
declared, while universally regarded in
the United States as expressing an
altruiStic policy of Self-defenSe, Is just
as unanimously considered in South
America "a policy of military otfenSe."
This difference in Interpretation, she
said, is a serious and constant source
Of misunderstanding between the two
continents.
: Hughes Is Quoted.
Quoting former Secretary of State
Hughes, she continued that the Monroe
Doctrine has never been clearly defined
and has no legal status in international
law. While the sphere Of influence"
It sets up for the United States is
analogous, she said, to those claimed in
other parts Of the world by the other
great powers, Great Britain, France,
italy and Japan, nevertheless the
causes which brought forth the Monroe
Doctrine have gone forever" and
modern Interpretation Of its meaning Is
needed.
I The Monroe Doctrine, Mrs Gait con-
tended, is still "a military threat" and
the psychology of a threat, she added,
= always to create enemies instead OF
friends, suspicion instead Of trust"
! Raymond L. Buell., research secretary
Of the Foreign Policy Association. said
that the possibility Of American inter-
Sention in South American countries

Frog Egg Given

CLEVELAND, January 10
Prof. Albert Bracht of the Uni
versity of Brussels before the
Cleveland Academy of Medicine
last night, described experiments
in which life and growth had
been induced through laboratory
treatment of the egg.
Take a female frogs egg, I'M
fertilized, and puncture it with a
minute glass point" he said, land
it will begin to grow. Take the
female egg of the sea urchin and
treat it with a certain acid and
that develops.
I'VE have found that the female
element in reproduction is suffl-
Gent to produce the new organ
ism. The male addition merely
gives it individuality, the residue
of its ancestors. Unfortunately,
however, these same tests cannot
be experimentally induced in the
human"

The quality of for acting as the

movie fans everywhere for this
lovely newcomer to the screen. At

admire her charming personality
and she has fairly "set the style"
on Broadway by the way she
dresses her hair.

busy girls, too, because it is so easy.
Most of the girls know in stage
and picture work are taking it up
as soon as they hear about it. All
you do is put a little Danderine on
your brush every time you use it..
1t makes your hair so easy to dress
and holds it in place wonderfully.
It's ideal for girls who are letting
their hair grow. It keeps my hair
and scalp so clean and comfOr-
table. don't shampoo half so
often, now. It gives my hair such
silky, soft, luStrouS appearance
that all my friends comment on
it,"
Danderine removes the oily film
from each strand of hair, restores
it's natural color, gives it more
luStre than brilliantine. It cleanSeS

overcome dandruff. 1t is delight

Labor Is the Goat

The public has been myStifed by constantly in
creasng mergers of industrial corporations, accom-
panied by laments from business groups that the
necessary to efficiency.
But now comes employers organization, the Ma
tonal Industrial Conference Board with sweeping
defense of that much-attacked law The board has
been making study of the 436 court decisions rem
dered under the antitrust legislation during the last
thrty-Seven years.
It's report uphodS these laws as protection to in
divdua business concerns 1t serious barrier to
mergers but from study of decisions under the Sher
man and Clayton acts, finds that "the law provides
the possibility of ultimate legal vindicaton for every
species of corporate expansion which has economic
warrant"
The fact that only seven merger cases were inst-
ued during the last decade supports the boards con-
ention that restrictions upon the merging of compet
ing enterprises not drastic under the law) as
those imposed upon interference with the business
rights of others upon collusive trade agreements
Probably the most disturbing factor of the report,
which however is not stressed by the board is the high
percentage of cases in which this legislation has been
used as club against organized labor About half of
the TIA actions brought by the government to curb in
reference with business rights of competition were for
injunctons to restrain labor organizations from strk
ing and exercising other constitutional rights
This is the widespread and dangerous injunction
evil which organized labor is fighting in courts and
congress.

Temperance in Law

MANY people have advocated
WI the kind of temperance legis-
lation Chile has adopted. 1t deals
with drunkenness, rather than with
drinking, making abuse, not habit,
the crime.
Chileans who become intoxicated,
especially while engaged in respon-
sible work, can look for no mercy.
Barkeepers who sell to persons
under 20 years of age, or to people
who have already taken too much,
will be dealt with severely.
The ideal is temperance, not in
hibition. Experience alone will show
whether it can be translated into
practice.
Some believe we can only prevent
abuse by stopping the habit APP
petite or business suit Of which 1t
grows. Others believe such course
only aggravates the cause, only
strengthens human weakness by
adding the spirit of rebellion.
Meanwhile, it must be obvious to
every sensible person that temper
ance includes more than booze,
tobacco and gambling. Among other
things, temperance includes law,
especially that kind Of law which
interferes with others.
The slogan of you can't" has lit
tie TO do with temperance.

CINCINNATI, Jan. 24.-Streets
~ are clean and in good repair,
where they were full of holes and
clutter three years ago, while taxes
have been reduced.
That is one way of telling what
the. city manager plan has done for
Cincinnati, though, marked i'm
provement in the police and fire
departments might also be cited.
Colonel G. o. Sheriff., who came
here after serving a long appren-
ticeship * Washington, D. c., de-
serves a large share of the credit,
though some belongs to the plan
itself, ard some more to those
public spirited citizens who not only
put it over, but have backed it up.
Approximately three hundred
communities have adopted the city
manager plan, the most important
among them being Cleveland and
Cincinnati Professional politicians
invariably have opposed it's adoption
to begin with and tried to under
mine it afterward They have sue
ceeded in only few cases.
Increasing popularity of the city
manager plan suggests a real and
apparently settled change in our
attitude toward government, espe-
cially in local affairs.

Too Many Minor Crimes

URINE has become more mat
" ter of business than it ever
was, but its detection and punish
ment remains too much matter
of politics.
We not only fail to deal efficiently
with major crimes, but we manu-
facture lot of minor crimes.
If there is no civilized country
on earth that had so many ,nur-
ders, there is also none that has
so many arrests for parking, left
turns and selling pints of hootch.
Other countries appear I'd be stay
ing with the old-fashioned theory
that the way to protect society is
to run down and punish the really
bad individual. We have invented
a new one. Our idea is that mass
regulation will prevent any indivi-
dual from becoming bad. :

The Big Grab

That behind the wen-greased program to increase
the gasoline tax license fees for automobiles to
take away five six more millions of dollars every
year from the people, is purpose to enrich the
terisi men, becomes more and more apparent.
Owners of trucking fleets and delivery systems
understand that the attack is eveled against their
interests They have investigated the necessity for
the hasty building program and discover that under
revenues collected the state could build 2400
miles of cement roads in the next seven years
The good roads movement started years ago. It is
fine movement. The federal government gives aid
And roads are being built rapidly in every state.
Whether the roads as now being constructed are
the best that could be built is question Some built
as recently as five years ago are discovered to
be faulty They require repairs, although such roads
should last for at least one generation. Many are
discovered to be too The practice of putting
the heaviest part of the cement the crown instead
of on the edges where the traffic greatest was only
very recently abandoned
But even if it we're granted that the roads are the
very best the legislature it to the people to in
vestigate the highway commission and it's alliances
before it hands over the stupendous sum of more
than twenty millions of dollars every year.
1t is just possible that it would be discovered that
the state could save a lot of money by owning and
operating its own cement plant and it's own quarres
Very soon the problem of work in prisons will be-
come a real problem. If the road material can be
produced by prison labor, perhaps the money now
furnished would build all the roads that are either
needed or dreamed of.
The first step in consideration of the bill to grab
millions should be most complete survey of the
situation including real investigation of the high
way department.

A Signal of Sympathy

very little thing often means great DEAL if you
look at it properly.
In a little Ohio town near Toledo lives an 18-year-
old boy who has been an invalid for several years
His parents house is near the New York Central
railroad tracks and one OF the lads diversions is
watching the big limited passenger trains go speed
ing by.
One day. about year ago, engineer the
boys cot on the porch and inquired about him
when he reached the towns station. Learning that
the boy was kept to his bed by Illness the engineer
decided to do a little something to cheer him up
So, thereafter, eve-y night when his train passed
the boys house. the engineer would blow his whistle
four times The boy quickly discovered that this
signal was a greeting to him, and he responded by
blinking the light in his bedroom four times
That has kept up for year now Every night
that the engineer speeds by he sounds his signal and
the boy responds by flashing his light. If the boy
is feeling than usual and has to drop off to
sleep earlier in the evening he sets his alarm clock
so that he will awaken in time hear and respond
to the greeting.
On Christmas the engineer sent the boy little
present. And a few days later. on his day of. he
went to the little town and called him. promising
to have all the other engineers that section of
the line too their whistles for the sick lad when they
passed his house.
Now eli of this, while interesting and little bit
touching, may not seem especially important But
it is just the same. Study it Alright and you will get
a great deal of encouragement and hope out of it.
There is good deal of misery of one kind and
another in this world Sickness poverty failure and
disappointment touch every one of us at time
or another. They're pretty hard to live through,
sometimes but the worst thing of all is the feeling
Of loneliness that so often accompanies them
We are so constituted that stand almost
anything except tae feeling that the rest of the
world shut of from by barriers of indifference
and misunderstanding. Yhere are times when the
most important thing earth is an unnistakahe
hint that kindness and houghtfulness still exist in
world of strangers.
That is why the simple kindly act of this loco
motive engineer is worth reading about. What he
did wasn't much perhaps-but it meant great deal
to that bed-ridden youngster. lonely and depressed
And though the rest ot never heard Of either Of
these two people before, =. can mean good deal
to Us. too
n Is Just one more demonstration that kindness
and the willingness to help someone else to little
happiness aren't 50 uncommon as We often think.
