Keep Peace In Manchuria

Any way you look at it, Manchuria is a long way off.
Furthermore, most of the leading figures and places in
the Manchurian mix-up have names that are hard to pro-
nounce and hard to remember. The ordinary American,
as a result, is beginning to get tired of hearing about it all
and is wondering just why he or his government should
worry about IL.
Yet the whole business is not nearly as remote as it
looks. Indeed, the very fact that the United States gov
rnment is working its hardest to avert a war on the
other side of the world testifies eloquently to the way in
which modern society has made all of its members inter-
dependent.
Offhand, it doesn't seem as il any American need
care whether or not the Chinese and the Japanese go to
war.
And yet, in the spring of 1914, no American would
have dreamed that VIZ between Austria and Serbia could
ever involve him.
The point is that there can no longer be any ESQ
lated" wars. The ties that connect nation with nation
have grown too complex, too strong. When an armed
conflict starts, no man on earth is wise enough to say
just where and how it may end. There may not seem
any conceivable way in which an everyday American
citizen could he concerned over a war in Manchuria; and
yet, II such a war lasted long enough, he might eventually
find himself in the midst of it.
The world is Just beginning to discover this fact; and
the efforts that are being made now, by the great powers,
to keep the peace III Asia are entirely unlike what they
would have been if a similar crisis had arisen 20 years
ago. In that earlier time, the powers would have inter-
would hsve tried to keep Japan from seizing Manchuria
SO that they themselves, at some favorable opportunity,
could seize it.
Today, however, there is a dawning recognition Of
the fact that the world cannot afford to have a war
start anywhere. Upon the speed and thoroughness with
which that lesson is learned depends the hope for world
peace, now and in the future.

Daily Health
Talk

Ine most widespread group Of
industrial diseases is that in which
inhalation Of dustS developed dur
ing the processes OF the work Is the
basic cause. The scientific name for
such diseases Is pneumonoconiosis
"a word developed from two Greek
words meaning lung and dust. The
dusts inhaled are Of various types.
For instance, It Is possible for a
worker TO inhale germs or parasites
which once in the lung attack the
tissues.
Recently newspapers carried an
account OF a girl who had developed
pulmonary anthrax. Anthrax is a
disease caused by micro-organisms
from the hides OF cattle and sheep
which usually attack the skin OF
the body. When inhaled this germ
can set I'D infection in the lungs
which in the majority Of cases is
fatal. Anthrax Is known as wool
sorter's disease and Is also asso-
ciated with any worker who ham
dies fresh hides.

Letter

NEW YORK - Although Max
Steuer and William Untermeyer
occupy the spotlight as Manhat-
tan's most prominent legal lights.
still the legends and truths con-
corning q certain William Fallon
goes on.
Just this morning q note came
TO my desk announcing that the
cinema would use Fallon as q film
story character. And Gene Fowler
has done a biography titled, The
Great Mouthpiece."
Without having ever known or
seen Mons. Fallon, ! think he
would have liked the notion Of
being perpetuate6 in the movies.
He appears to hav ebeen q show
man unto himself: O lawyer who
was a consummate actor with
Broadway rs his stage and It's peo-
pie as his clients.
One OF the favorite yarns con-
Germs his love for Gertrude Van
derbilt. She showed no great in
clination toward returning his af-
lection. so one day he urged her
TO come 70 court to hear him plead
a case. Nicky Arnstein, one-time
spouse OF Fannie Brice. was on
trial. And Fallon was mailing a
double plea: for his client and the
heart Of a girl. He was successful
in both instances.
Then there's the famous story
| of his own trial. Bribery had been
charged and Fallon represented
himself in one Of the most dramat-
ic trials on record. He was, OF
course, acquitted.
Back Of all this was the story OF
a lad who rose from the New York
streets to the status of a great
actor-lawyer-a story that IS re-
peated year after year. Some be-
come builders of skyScrapers and
some become governors. statesmen
and great bankers.

The Naval Budget Cut

Every patriotic American, naturally, wants to see the
American navy kept at the highest possible point Of ef-
ficiency. And when naval authorities protest that the
proposed reductions in the naval budget will seriously
hamper them in the effort to maintain the fleets eff
cheney they are entitled to a hearing.
Nevertheless, Pres. Hoovers insistence that the de-
partment slash SCI, 900, 900 from its planned expenditures
for the coming year will probably win the support OF the
majority Of his fellow citizens. His remark that even
meritorious projects "can, must and will be deferred is
sound good sense. .
The present times are abnormal, and the federal
government must retrench. The Navy Department will
have to take its cut along with the others.
