Press reports from Moscow show
that the Soviet workers evaluate ex-
actly the anti-Soviet religious"
crusade as an attack against the
drive for socialism in the Soviet.
The "Pravda," organ of the Com
munist Party of the Soviet Union,
is quoted in part as follows:
$50 far, all the evil yelping
against the Soviet has lacked only
the Holy Fathers sweet voice. This
representative of God on earth hith-
erto has preferred to hold his peace.
He thought that the weakening OF
the Greek Orthodox Church would
clear the way for Rome.

''This head of the Catholic

When asked to express himself on the
economic relations between Colombia
and the United States, Senior Olaya
mentioned the great value of many
tropical products to the industries OF
the United States, which, in his opin-
ion, are not in competition with those
OF this country, but Complementary to
them, Citing the abundance OF Colom-
bias oil fields, he stated that ''its ex-
ploitation had given rise to some juridi-
cal discussions which have made slower
than 1t should have been the de-

added: Whatever difficulties may have

follow as @ general principle the atti-

safeguarding the legitimate interests OF
the state should provide for an equita-

of the companies interested in making
use Of this fuel, so valuable for modern
industrial life"

leaders of its Government have regarded
the peoples of Latin America as groups
of friends and brothers with whom they
have many ideals and interests in COM
mon. This conviction led the founders
Of the great American Republic to speak
words of generous solidarity to the
newer nations which were struggling TO
attain their independence at the begin
ming OF the nineteenth century. Tne
same thought has served to guide many
leaders in the United States, and 1t has
been taken up with clear understanding
by many of the most able men OF Latin
America. In this work OF continental
civilization and understanding between
the nations of the Western hemisphere
the present generation has great task
to perform. We must carry on success
fully on the basis of sincere confidence
and with definite intent to bind closer
that friendship founded on sincerity.
In this task the press Is deciding rae
tor. With its aid the United States ana
the republics of Latin America Will be
able to crown with success that great
work for cooperation worthy OF the
high ideals of modern civilization"
Thus spoke Don Enrique Olaya Her
rera, President-elect OF Colombia, sit
ting at his desk as Colombian Minister
in Washington.

ahead, with vision fixed clearly on to-
morrow's generation, that the ideal OF

victions and of independent Judgment.
He will never dissent for the pleasure
of dissenting, but he will never concur
merely from good nature.
viii Be Socially Popular.
Just as he will be well liked by all
who come into official contact with
Washington. Wholesome, fine looking
and with manly charm, there Is that
about him which inspires confidence
and invites friendship. His tastes are
extremely simple. Much Of his happy
domestic life Is spent on his farm In
the Schuylkill Valley. Separation from
this, I dare say, will prove only less
of a wrench than separation from his
partners.
He is an intensely human being, q
lover Of his kind and full Of the Joy
of living. His has been a Singularly
happy home. Mrs. Roberts is equally
able to take her place in the social
world and to find satisfaction in such
seclusion as is sometimes necessary to
preserve the health of a hard-worked
husband. Their only child, daughter,
is a splendid specimen of young wom-
anhood, handsome, intelligent, charm
ing. Both she and her mother take q
keen interest in all Roberts work, and
each vies with him in love Of the out
doors.
Roberts ought not to be classified as
liberal or as q conservative. BY this
I mean that, while all groups In the
country will find him friendly, none
will ever be able to claim him as an
ally. He will be detached in his con-
sideration of cases, and it will soon be
recognized that his distinguishing char
acteristic is q determination to act on
principle. Today may find him pleas
ing one set of extremists by his attitude
upon some pending question, while to-
morrow he may give them the diSap-
pointment of their lives. Gradually 1t
will dawn upon them that his aim is
not to crafty groups, but rather to
think impersonally and to decide i'm
partially. AS he has been fearless
advocate, so he will prove to be a
just judge.
owen Roberts is the type of Ameri-
can in whom you will find the secret
of our national strength. With such
public servants the future of the Re-
public is as secure as her past.

Winters in polar regions, four with
Amundsen and one with us, the last
when he was 68 years old, summed it
all up one day last Winter when he
said:
When I am home and read about
the Antarctic, it seems very cold, but
when I am here it doesn't seem cold
at ALL"
OF course, Rome did not have any
outside work. And on another occa-
sion Martin uttered the wise state
ment: Work all the time. Every
thing all right" That Is the way to
overcome the monotony OF the long
Winter night.
Ross Ice Barrier.
I would be remiss not to mention
the great Ross Ice Barrier that is Pc
culiar to Antarctica. know Of no
more interesting natural phenomenon
than this great sheet OF ice and snow.
After living q year on 1t we find our
selves still puzzled by it. For hundreds
Of feet we tunneled the Barrier in all
directions; we built snow rooms down
beneath its surface: we travelled by dog
teams for over 1000 miles over 1t and
photographed 10000 square miles of 1t
from the air. And yet it still has for
us that fascination that the unknown
inspires. 1t Is 400 miles wide north and
south and was formerly supposed to be
about 400 miles long in an east and
west direction, but from our airplane we
saw that 1t extends on indefinitely to
the eastward. Where does 1t 60 and
what mystery lies at its end?
This great sheet Of snow Is largely
water borne. 1t is from few feet to
200 feet high above the water, and in
places must 60 at least 500 feet be-
meath the water. It Is hard-packed
snow down as far as the water. and
from there on becomes ice. How was
this great sheet Of snow and ice
formed? We think perhaps we can
answer that. But why does 1t not
break off in pieces from the attacks OF
the sea, and float off in the form OF
icebergs? 1t does break oil somewhat
Of course, but apparently Is not reced-
ing. We know that in one place II
rests on the bottom OF the sea. How
ever, our camp at Little America was
over / 500 feet of water.
There are q few things we can add
to the knowledge our predecessors have
gained about the Barrier, but then
there are a great many things that we
cannot tell the scientists. But 10 years
from now we believe that our surveys
and photographs will tell an interesting
story.
Widely as the Arctic ana AnIarcClC
differ In their geographical character
istics, they are one in their fascination
and beauty. To have seen them both Is
a rare privilege, and the call to revisit
them is almost irresistible. Icebound
sea or snowy mountain-rimmed plateau
the polar regions are one in their ap-
peal to all that Is most adventurous ir
man.

Of variable star observation. It is only
within the last 40 years that astrono-
mers have attached any great signifi-
canoe. to the strange propensity Of GER
tain stars to dim and brighten alter
nately, but the fact of stellar variable
ity has been known for more than 800
years.
Amateur Found Star Missing.
In October, 1896, an amateur in East
Friesland, David Fabricius, noticed that
a star which he had previously observed
had apparently disappeared. He had
seen it on August IS In the constella-
ton CetuS the Whale. star OF the
third magnitude-and now, two and a
half months later, its place was blank
in the heavens. Had the star burned
up. or dropped into the abyss?
Fabricius did not attempt to answer
these questionable was a modest anna
teur-but his keen naked-eye obServa-
lions those nights in 1895 have written
his name indelibly into the history Of
astronomical discovery. For the star
which he saw and then lost, and which
he was careful to record so accurately,
was seen again a few years later by a
professional astronomer. Others fol-
lowed it through its phases of disap-
pearance and temperance, and finally
science recognized that here was new
kind of star. It was given the name
Mira the Wonderful.
This first known variable when at its
brightest Is nearly as brilliant as the
North Star. It fades in about nine
months to the ninth magnitude-invis-
ible except through telescope. From
this lowest value 1t rises more rapidly
TO maximum again. taking about IL
months for its complete cycle Of change
Mira Is now on the upgrade and due
to reach top brilliancy about June is.
If any reader wishes to see Mira the
Wonderful at its present maximum, he
will find the constellation Cetus rising
next week at about am. 1t can be
discerned in the eastern sky south Of
the rudy planet Mars and the Great
Square of Pegasus.
Mira Is a red giant. Recent measure
ments at Mount Wilson Observatory
show that its diameter is $4,000 900
miles. This is so great that If Mira
could be brought into our solar system
and its center placed at the center of
our sun, Mira would reach out into
space nearly to the orbit of Mars, thus
inclosing within its circumference the
sun, Mercury Venus, the earth and
the moon. GiantiSm seems to go nat

Both In the number Of admissions to

The proportion Of communicable dis

Due to the mild climate the troops are

criticized some OF the abuses then
