In an address at the Williamson In

Glasgow University, severely critized
our school histories for teaching too
much loyalty to our institutions. He
would have all these histories rewritten,
presumably by some foreigner, who
had no preiudices at all except for his
own country.

When, in addition to the ordinary
expenditures. We can appropriate for
emergencies tens ofmillions of dollars,
and still keep within our income, it is
fair to assume that there is more than
ordinary ability at the head of the

SOME AMERICAN OBSERVATIONS
BY JAY TAYLOR

BY JAY TAYLOR
If the United States were in the
League of Nations, the trouble in India
might become an International affair
A committee consisting of one Ameri-
can and a dozen or more foreigners,
would decide how many American
boys should be sent over there to help
save the Caucasian race. And after
it was all over, the same committee
would decide what portion of the total
expense should be assessed against
Uncle Sam. Perhaps it is just as we'll
that we do not belong to any organi-
cation, stacked twelve to one against
US, that could tell us what to do.

Cash for Gold Star Mothers

a Boston newspaper suggests that such Gold Star
|snothers as are unable 70 accept the governments
offer Of free trip to France be given, instead, a cash
settlement Of $3.50. which is approximately the cost Of
each trip.
There is q good deal Of sense to this. Many mothers
whose sons died overseas cannot afford to take the
trip. even when all expenses ere paid. They have
20 earn ltvings for themselves and their families. IN
deed, the Boston paper making this proposal esti-
mates that not more than a third Of the eligible Gold
Star mothers will be able 70 60.
To make these cash payments would. Of course.
greatly increase the cost to the government Of the
whole plan. But it's a rather expensive undertaking
at best. Making cash payments to mothers who can
not afford to accept the free trip would bring a good
deal Of help TO homes that need it badly.

For an example OF the miracles which modern IN
~vention can work. we commend to you an event that
took place recently during the a-my-navy war
games" at San Francisco.
An army airplane, crcllng oer the Golden Gate,
spotted two enemy" submarines coming in toward
that famous entrance to San Franciscos harboC.
One OF the observers In the airplane hastily drew
sketch map Of the position Of the two submarines
re handed the map to a radio engineer who was seat
ed in the plane. This man inserted the paper In a
rittle cylindrical machine. Just II seconds later a
complete reproduction Of the map was transcribed on
> receiving apparatus at an army airport. rs miles
away. Instantly a fleet Of bombers took off TO go out
and destroy" the invading submarines.
= There is an uncanny quality TO that miracle that Is
Fairly staggering. Imagine it: a man seated in an air
plane a thousand or 50 feet above the earth draws q
picture which is reproduced almost simultaneously on
5the ground rs miles away and enables a group Of pilots
TO 90 out and sink two vessels which are not even
visible on the face Of the water!
You could not go much farther in performing the
Impossible.
II is a little bit disturbing to realize that this par
<ticular miracle was devised for the purpose Of taking
seems as II mankind's inventive faculties work best
only when someone Is preparing 70 wipe some Of his
tfellow mortals off the face Of the earth.
Yet there Is q bright side TO it. at that.
81 Shortly after causing the destruction Of the sub
~rnarines. these two airmen. still circling high in the
,air. saw another army airplane plunge to the earth,
out Of control, saw its pilot leap into the air with a
parachute to save his life. Promptly they dashed off
zanother sketch and transmitted it to headquarters
$50 that the exact location Of the accident could be
made known and aid rushed to the spot at once.
s. This stunt was a sort OF aftegthought. Of course;
&yet it indicates that this amazing device for making
destruction certain can also be used for more hu-
nanitarian purposes.
In that respect. an optimist can find the whole
business symbolic. If he wants TO.
The human brain is capable Of performing genuine
miracles. It can take liberties with time and space
that would have seemed wildly incredible a few years
&ago. Just at present many Of these devices are used,
not to serve humanity but to destroy it. Some day,
however. we shall have sense enough-letS hope-to
put them to more constructive uses.

Gin the old fashioned manner)
I.
Always buy the high grade issues"
Mother always said to me.
Never fool around the cheap stocks
They will bring you misery
Choose the leading stocks and always
Dodge the bucket shops and joints
So bought U. s. Steel shrewdly-
And it fell But 90 POINTsl
II.
Never touch the things that haven't
Stood the test Of stress and time"
Was my fathers message to me,
If you'd ever have a dime"
Take A. r. q T." he told me.
And you'll be quite free from care"
So I bought some and it only
Fell down fifty bucks a share!
III.
Once ny dear old Uncle Luther
Who was frugal, cool and wise,
Told me, Only seasoned issues
Are at any time good buys"
General" he said, Electric
Is ike money put IN transit
I bought it and just twenty
Points was all that it did bust.
Nv.
able management" he told me,
Els the thing TO bear in mind;
Buy a stock like Con. Gas, sonny
and profit you Will find"
So I got aboard on Tuesday
Just to hold it for a squirt
And I'm really not complaining
For I still own half my shirt.
".
Always pick the stocks Of standing
Said the banker most astute:
Then you'll not be taking chances
And they'll call you smart to boot"
SO I bought some New York Central.
And I ought to be quite glad
For its minus sign Of twenty
Isn't $50 they tell mel bad.
VI.
BE conservative and cautious
Urged q sage investment friend:
Buy the standard old-time leaders
1t will pay you in the end
I bought STANDARD Of New Jersey.
Yearning for : touch Of wealth,
And I guess that I was lucky
For I still possess my health
VII.
Now the moral OF this ditty
Isn't difficult to find
When you're fooling in the market
Bear this uppermost In mind:
When you're told to buy the good ones
AS you play the Wall Street game
Know. no matter how they slice it,
It's boloney Just the same.

ROADS AROUND CITIES
 URGED TO AID TRAFFIC

WASHINGTON, April 18.-Trunk around cities, rather than through them, are seen as a solu- ton of traffic congestion.
 More distributing routes, instead of excessive widening of existing roads, are prescribed by D. R. Lam- son, engineer of the American Road Builders association, after na- tional survey of traffic conditions.
 Population centers are the nu- clei of congestion. Traffic in large cities is making transportation by horse-driyen trucks cheaper than by motor vehicles. The automo- bile no longer has a time-saving advantage"
 Regional plans, superior to politi- cal boundaries and controlled by state legislation, were recommended for cities to clear up congestion.
