ORATORS PRAISED
AS PEACE ENJOYS
sLikened to International
Ernissaries After Visit
to- White House.

When men know each other better
they and much to admire and little to
criticize and for that reason 1t is well
to assemble on q common ground the
best of any nations young orators, s.
z. Shankland executive secretary Of
the Department of Superintendent OF
the NGtional Education Association,
declared today. Dir. Shankland spoke
at the Canadian Clubs luncheon In
honor of the participants in the Sixth
International Oratorical Contest.
Held at the Shoreham Hotel. the
Canadian Clubs luncheon followed i'm
mediately after the contestants visit
to the White House, where President
Hoover received them and posed for
picture with them.
Mr.. Shankland told the boys the vic
tor would be determined by narrow
margin in Saturday nights contest.
Some persons. he said, may not approve
of the contest because "ths competition
Is so severe and some may go away dis
appointed" Admitting this view may
be right. Mr. Shankland pointed out,
however, "the great achievements of
mankind likewise have been won by
narrow margins
Cites Edison's Wonders.
I'm the realm of the mind our VIC
tories likewise have been by narrow
margins" Mr. Shankland told the ora
tors. The recent death of that dis
tinguished benefactor of mankind.
Thomas A. Edison. forciby reminds us
of the slow progress OF science through
the ages The incandsScent light. the
telephone, the microphone. the moving
pictures and other wonders which have
come from Menlo Park were the ripened
products wrought by a master brain;
but they we're made possible through the
lifetime labors of men such as Volta,
Galvani. Benjamin Franklin, Faraday
and Morse who added little by little to
the sum of scientific knowledge, to
which Edison and his generation were
the heirs
There is no fancy formula for the
promotion of human welfare. Most of
us find it easier to follow the prompt
ings of jealousy, greed. or unwilling
thought. and to destroy what another
has built, rather than to lend hand
and help him in the undertaking. For
this reason, If for no other, it is well that
you. representing many nations, have
come together here: for when We know
each other better. We shall find much to
admire and little to criticize"
Sees Social Reforms.
Mr.. Shankland declared that while
the last decade was dedicated to mate
rial things and great physical achieve
ments. the future offers plenty of prob
lens fer the present young generation
to solve.
Perhaps the greatest achievements
Of the next decade" he said. will come
from closer contacts bet~een the peo-
piles of the world. We. whose faces are
turned toward the setting sun. had
slight means of travel or communica-
ton in our youth. Our minds we're pro-
vincial. Now young people like your
selves travel around the world and so,
perhaps, it is not expecting too much
to hope that your generation, with a
world vision. may find remedies for
some of the worlds woes One thing

bergh left here at 6:22 am. Pacific
standard time, for Seattle by airplane,
after arriving by steamer from the
Orient, where their air tour was ended
by the recent death Of Mrs. Lindbergh's
father. Senator Dwight w. Morrow OF
New Jersey.

Lindberghs a plane to be used on their

Refused to Be Interviewed.
Shaking his head and declining to be
interviewed, Col. Lindbergh led the way
through group of persons gathered on
the dock and, with Mrs. Lindbergh,
left for the air field in an automobile
provided by the American consul.
They had breakfast aboard the ship.
Where they would fly from Victoria was
not ascertained, although Breese said
he thought they first would go to Seat
tie to check in through United States
Customs before flying eastward.
Mrs. Lindbergh said she was eager
to get back to her baby, whose lst
birthday anniversary was celebrated
shortly before the Lindberghs started
out last July on their aerial jaunt across
Northern Canada, Alaska and Siberia to
Japan and China.

Labor Survives-Again.

Much Ado About Nothing" or per-
haps "All's Well That Ends Well"
would be a good title for the parlia-
mentary farce-comedy that has ended
for the dozenth time-in prolongation
of the British Labor governments
tenucus lease of ofice. On most pre-
vious occasions the Macdonald ministry
has survived threatened crisis after 1t
came out of a snap division with q
minority. The front bench alibi gen.
orally was that no matter Of SUFFICIENT
principle or policy was involved to
impel the government to resign.
This week the stage seemed set for q
real showdown. Ever since Chancellor
of the Exchequer Snowden proposed
his revolutionary new land-tax scheme,
the fate Of the Macdonald cabinet has
hung in the balance. The Labor party was
divided on the issue, as was the cabinet
itself. When the Lloyd George Liberals
breathed fire and birthstone against 1t,
the governments fortunes took on q
truly perilous hue. The Liberals trot-
ted out an amendment to the Snowden
plan, designed to make it less distaste-
full to the large landowners. The
chancellor of the exchequer rebelled.
Premier Macdonald revealed an inclina-
ton to compromise with Lloyd George.
A double-edged political upheaval thus
hove into view--a Labor cabinet mutiny
and imminent fall of the government
through detection Of those Liberal votes
in the House of Commons by grace Of
which Macdonald alone retains power.

indication iS afforded that Federal
agents are now at work upon gang
operations in New York in a manner
similar to that of the drive against the
Capone activities in Chicago. The sue
cess Of the Chicago campaign encour-
ages the expectation that a similar
victory will be scored in this endeavor
to round up the "malefactors Of great
wealth" who operate with guns In the
eastern metropolis.
There is in fact little difference be-
tween the Chicago and the New York
situations. The Capone racket in Chi
cago was more distinctly identified and
better advertised. The New York rack
cts are somewhat more diverse, and
less definitely concentrated in a single
group. They may not be so compactly
organized, or so closely co-ordinated, but
they exist and flourish nevertheless and
they take enormous toll of business and
cost heavily in human life.
It is grave reflection upon the
honesty and the efficiency of municipal
government that the United States
should have to step in to suppress the
blackmailing gangsters, with the in
come tax law Is the specific reason for
Investigation and basis for punishment
While in large measure the operations
Of the gangs are in violation of the
prohibition law, which is a Federal Of
fenSe, the operatives in. these lawless
organizations are constantly engaged ir
breaches Of the State laws as well. Their
offense Is against the immediate COM
munity, rather than against the United
States.
In Chicago justice failed completely
IN dealing with the Capone gang. The
leader and his men enjoyed o veritabl'
immunity, due with little doubt to theil
corruption of the police and the prose
cutting agencies. Now and again thu
farce of their arrest was enacted, bu
It never went further. Absurdly small
bonds were taken, later to be cancelet
and the charges dropped without pub
licity. Nobody regarded these spas
