Europe's Fog Breeders.
(New York Herald-Tribune.

Reports of renewed fog in the valleys of Belgium where deaths occurred under similar circumstances a few weeks ago are sure to be accompanied by apprehension, if not by panic, on the part of the local population. The exact causes of the former deaths remain mysterious, the reports of the ex- ports being still unissued What has been eluci- dated however, is the of the fogs themselves for these disclosed by the European weather maps for the week in question, now at hand in American laboratories. Two cyconic storms seem to have co-operated to cause the fog blanket of December to 5, which of the deaths, If not their only cause What may be hap pening this week to cause repetition of the fog danger American meteoroogsts only guess, for cabled reports of world weather are not yet com- plete or accurate enough to permit exact diagnosis before more complete data come by transatlantic mail.
 week before the beginning of the former fogs series of less violent cyclonic storms crossed the United States and disappeared over the Atlantic It is hard to follow the oceanic course of such storms exactly, for weather data from the oceans depend the chance position Of ships and are likely to be meager. Apparently at least two of the American whirs coalesced about December l to form exceptionally powerful double whirl, with its twin center covering the island of Iceland The normal thing for such a northern cyclone to do is to progress slowly north eastward and to vanish in the polar ocean This one did not do On December 9 it's center, now become single instead of twinned, did move east Wdfu, apparently as usual, until It was situated approximately over Sptzbergen On the following day, however, it started back slowly toward Iceland "a procedure rare but not unique. For four days this American cyconic immigrant to the Icelandic oceans hovered between Iceland and the coast of Norway gradually losing force until by December T it was virtually extinct
 Meanwhile the other parent of the Belgian fogs was approaching from the southwest Bred some where in the tropical Atlantic Ocean, where there are few ships and almost weather reports a second cyclonic storm advanced December 2 toward the coast of Spain. This storm, is usual caused northward drift of warm, moist air on it's eastward margin. The Iceland whrl simultaneously caused a southeastward drift of cold, dry air from it's western edge toward England and the Continent Belgium chanced to be the battlefield where these entrusted air currents mixed.

A Real Treaty.
Cincinnati Enquirer )


 Arthur Henderson, British Foreign Secretary, just has said in broadcast to America that it is his hope that within year from the nations may agree upon the first treaty whereby all the armies navies and air forces in the world shall be limited and reduced.
 It is a good hope It could be realized It will be realized if the nations sincerely desire the peace they claim to be their objective.
 MT Henderson says that England and America now must choose between peace and war the two nations primarily, for there be little hope for successful conflict by any nation nations that have not the approval and assistance, directly CT indirectly of England and America. If, he says the world reapses into the barbarian of the past it will be because Britain and America will be at fault Together they should be able to hasten and the era of peace
 The Secretary points to the London Treaty and the Kellogg Pact steps made toward peace during the past year And such they are. But the Secretary should remember that it has not been America that has stood in the way of the dsarma- ment he would like to Geneva is his answer to that. America is ready and willing to meet and go with England and all other nations in the ef- fort to approach international accord this as in all other matters. She has proved it by her commitments at London and in the presentation oi the pact agreeing to the outlawry of war, and in other ways. America is the only nonbelligerent na- ton on the face of the earth.

NATHAN STRAUS, SAVIOR OF
 BABIES.

Literally thousands Of babies owed their lives to the philanthrophy and determination of Nathan Straus Jewish patriarch whose death in New York recently the of widespread regret through out the world Somehow, and one knows just how, he got idea that the of raw milk was dangerous for babies. One account has it that on one occasion he was passing through dairy stable in the Adirondacks, heard the coughing, and became convinced that they had tuberculosis Des- pite adverse public opinion he decided that much human tuberculosis transmitted through milk Soon afterward he formed the conclusion that babies the worst sufferers from this source of disease He caused extensive meteorological :n- vestigation to be made and in 1892 originated milk pastuerzation in New York City. In that year he launched his system of pastuerization laboratories dispensing the poor of the great city milk that had been heated to 145 degrees Fahrenheit and held at that temperature for 30 minutes, Coupons good for days supply distributed in .enor- nous numbers.
 This enterprise was greeted by storm of pro- test, and he was assailed by many critics who as serted that sterilization devitalized milk in such way as to make it less nourishing. Undaunted by this attitude MT. Straus persisted in the work which later characterized by the Rockefeller Foundations International Health Board the be ginning of organized effort to combat infant mortal
 y by providing absolutely safe milk for articficially fed infants" ~1tfgEt < sfsfl t#f
 This work alone would be sufficient to per petuate his name great benefactor to the human race. But it furnished only outlet for his phlanthrophes. He made many contributions to areas abroad devastated by and disaster. Dur ing the Spanish American War he sent plant for manufacturing ice and cooling water to Santiago for the of the United States troops at the time of the earthquake in Italy in 1909 he des- patched physician with clothing and medical sup plies for sufferers in Naples; and during the World War he contributed to the relief of war orphans by giving them the proceeds from the sale of his own private yacht.
 Naturally of course, he deeply interested in the Zionist movement in Palestine. After n personal survey, he established health centers m Jerusalem, costing approximately a quarter of a million dollars to combat malaria and trachoma and installing soup kitchens where 1,7O0 people were fed daily without regard for creed In 1925, when Rabbi Stephen s. Wise resigned as Chairman of the $5000J000 United Palestine Appeal because of severe criticism following an alleged statement that Jesus not myth but a man and that the Jews must embrace His teachings, MT. StrauS, who had contributed s5OO00O to the appeal i'm evidence of his faith in Rabbi Wises loyalty to Judaism

SLOWING UP LOCAL PROSPERITY.

Under the above caption the Daily Olympi, ublished in Olympia, Wash. recently had the f owing to say:
 In nearly every community may be found persons who consider themselves leading citizens" but who in truth are really hold ing back their town, slowing up it's pro- gress. They do it through their failure to support the institutions which make the town what it is, by sending away for things which might be bought with equal advan- tage at home They do it through thought lessness and through sheer disregard for the welfare of the community of which they part.
 The doctrine of buying at home is not advanced solely in the interest of indi- every local citizen is to a certain extent dependent upon every other citizen for his prosperity. If other members of our city prosper you more liable to prosper
