In modern times shoes have been a
measuring stick for the Advancement of
democracy, foy the growtf1-of democratic
social institutions. They have SYM
bolized in practical form the distribu-
.tion Of wealth to the masses Of the peo-
pie. At one time only the aristocracy had
shoes; today, even in period of world
wide depression, the poor as well as the
well-to-do are so equipped.
The importance of the subject is made
manifest by the frequent reference to
1t found in literature and in the con-
versation of all classes. The Bible men,
tions shoes in no less than thirty
relations; Shakespeare refers to shoes
In as many as thirty-nine different con-
nections. The shoemaker, from the
earliest dawn of human chronicle, has
been a person of certain distinction
Even the surgeon to old shoes ira
dltionally is rated philosopher. Presi-
dent Coolidge attributed much of his
success in life to the teaching of his
friend the shoemaker, James Lucey
Thomas Carlyle declared that good
shoes invariably were made by devout
men, working devoutly.
There can be no question about the
value Of proper shoes as a promoting
factor toward an optimistic outlook on
the world and its problems. New shoes
stimulate feeling of confidence. The
philanthropist was right. But old shoes.
too, have their function They are
comfortable in their sse as they never
could be in their youth Probably
man should have pair of both kinds
one for the street and the other to wear
in his hours of relaxation at home.
1t is worth mentioning that well made
shoes may be bought today at a price
much lower than at any other time in
many years. The thrifty citizen might
do worse than stock up" for a reason

George David Stewart. 1t was said of
him that he was concerned with some
thing more than the bodily health Of
those with whom he. shared the COM

saying that time spent on the knees
in prayer will do more to remedy heart
strain and nerve worry than anything
else" and that "a man who does not
worship God at stated and regular in-
tervals fails to get the poise and self
control which enable him to use all his
powers in proper proportion" In this
expression Of his conscious dependence
upon God the great surgeon was AFFIRM

us the impulse to pursue the right
course. whether in our individual or

who frequently went behind the lines

International Monetary Conference May
Result in Bargaining Tariff Treaties

The difficulties thereupon presented
to the Economic Conference are indeed
formidable unless the theories under
which 1t was summoned into existence
are deeply amended.
These theories included. indeed, a
lifting of prices. EThe lifting contem-
plated however, was a world wide lift
ing. The conference was to produce in
ternational agreements through which
prices would rise everywhere. They
would rise in such a way as to give
some meaning to the phrase world
price level" The ultimate actual OBJ
jective was precisely that world price
level" The writer's Of the program of
the conference expressed themselves on
this point perfectly clearly. They said
that an essential condition TO the sue
cess Of the conference and Of its acts
was "a reasonable degree Of stability of
prices as the world measure of value"
Their reason for this view was stated
with equal clarity. Without a certain
stability of prices in the world sense it
Is enormously difficult to operate an in
ternational monetary standard, whether
of gold or Of anything else, and with
out that stability it Is virtually impos-
sible to secure general international
understandings of firm character for
the reducing Of tariff duties and of
other economic barriers" j.
The validity of such arguments Is
abundantly proved out of the recent ex-
perience Of our own Government itself
in Washington. Every effort here to
raise prices has been attended by an
| equal effort to raise tariff duties.
4 II \
The introduction in Congress Of the
Black Connery Perkins scheme for
shortening the hours of labor and for
accomplishing other purposes which
would increase costs and prices was in
stantly succeeded by a strong demand
for new compensatory tariff duties upon
imports Of foreign competitive lower
cost products.
The visits Of our petroleum producers
to the Office of the Secretary Of the In
terror for the purpose of advancing pc
troleum prices have always been accom-
panied by simultaneous requests for the
raising Of the duty on petroleum from
abroad.
The new industrial recovery" bill
will not have been long in Congress be-
fore numerous amendments will be Of
fered to it for tariff increases. The
gentlemen offering the amendments will
maintain that a country which is "in-
f1ating" costs and prices must addition
ally protect itself against countries
which-like Germany-are devoting
themselves to debating" costs and
prices Their contentious will be diff
f1cult to counter.
The conclusion might seem to be that
the International Monetary and Eco
nomic Conference, instead of perfecting
any universal agreement for lower tariff
duties, may find itself obliged to lead
the world rather to an extremely COM
plex system of bargaining tariff trea-
ties in which each country will higgle
and haggle with every other country in
a maze Of conflicting, artificial, govern
mental, national price levels. That may
be the new stormy economic interna-
tionalism."

What are they among SO many?'
This was the very natural inquiry OF
confused disciples as they faced bread
problem Attracted by His increasing
popularity, multitude of some 5000
had met to hear the new Teacher from
Nazareth AS the day advanced they
we're still with Him. Presently the
Master said that the time had come for
the people to depart, and observed: If
We send them away without food many
will faint by the way" Recognizing the
propriety of this. He inquired as to what
food was available.
Presently word was brought to Him
that there was lad present who had
few barley loaves and some small fish
es, but, His disciples asked, What are
they among SO many?' Immediately the
Master bade the great company to be
seated on the grass and we read that
taking the few loaves and the small
fishes, He blessed them and ordered
them distributed to satisfy the hunger
of the multitude.
The whole proceeding was thoroughly
characteristic of His method and of His
unfailing recognition of human needs.
He was ever dealing with the pressing
and immediate problems of life. He
was ever conscious Of the unending con-
flict in which men were engaged. He
persistently sought to relate mans phy-
sical needs to those things that concern
his spiritual life and its development.
While He affirmed that man shall not
live by bread alone" He taught that
the search for bread in itself was in
adequate. He insisted that only as man
recognized the hunger of his soul and
his dependence upon God could he find
satisfaction and solve the hard prob
lens of life. His teachings are intensely
practical and touch vitality and inti-
mately mans estate in this present
world To the mind of his disciples
a hungry multitude presented an insu-
perable and unsolvable problem, but to
Him it afforded opportunity, not only
for demonstrating His power, but of
making clear the relation that existed
between mans physical and spiritual
needs. We are ever crying in our dilem-
ma, conscious of our limited resources
as We face a situation that presents a
seemingly insuperable problem, What
are they among so many?" We are so
dependent upon material resources that
we leave out of our reckoning any form
of divine direction or of power not Of
ourselves upon which we may draw in
the hour of need. We cannot see the

With reorganization Of governmental

With reorganization Of governmental
functions in the interest Of economy and
efficiency as o part of the program OF
the Roosevelt administration, attention
Is being given to the idea OF Federal
police. The Federal Government now
exercises many police functions, but
they are widely scattered among many
departments. The proposal has been
made that there be unified Federal
police which would handle all police
matters of which the Federal Govern
ment has jurisdiction.
The conception is fascinating one
from the popular point Of view. There
has always been something of gla-
mour about national police bodies
Should such body be created, it doubt
less would attract some of the ablest
men in the country. Presumably 1t would
have a standing second scarcely to the
United States Army itself and as many
tales would cluster around its exploits
as around those of the Canadian North
west Mounted Police As a matter of
fact there is q wealth of romance in
every branch Of the Federal police ser
vices now, but there are so many
branches that the popular mind can
scarcely follow the intricacies Of organ
ization. The idea of a single Federal
police, however, would capture the
national imagination.
The Secret Service probably Is the
best known Federal police organization,
although it, in some ways. is the least
important. Least important only in the
sense that its duties are narrowly re-
stricted. Those duties are as important
as any performed by any branch. but
consist only Of two activities-protection
of the President and the suppression of
counterfeiting. The name. the Secret
Service. has an allure and many people
think 1t covers many secret govern
mental activities, but, actually, this
small body of men handles just these
two functions.
Force With Widest Jurisdiction.
There are four Federal organizations
engaged solely in police work, while
their rolls. The most important organ
ization engaged in police and secret ser
vice work Is the Bureau Of Investigation
of the Department of Justice. 1t Is that
body operating under direction of the
Attorney General, which has a force of
operatives constituting a police force
aimed at all Federal crime; that Is,
offenses against Federal statutes. From
apprehension of foreign spies to de-
lection Of violation of the Mann act,
this organization has the widest juris-
diction. 1t overlaps in many cases. Its
operatives are everywhere and 1t can
assist the Secret Service In counter
feiting cases. If desired, although it is
seldom that competent body needs any
help.
1t is the Bureau of Investigation
which has the famous collection of
millions Of fingerprints 1t has millions
of cards in an elaborately crossed in
dex. containing information relating to
known criminals. The bureau has Is
field Offices at strategic points through
out the Nation. During the World War
the bureau did some Of the most bril-
liant spy work recorded. It ferreted out
details of the activities Of enemy
agents in the United States. In peace
time it has done investigative work un-
covering subversive activities of Reds.

Hitler's Hindenburg Line.

When last Wednesday Herr Hitler
the German chancellor and virtual
| S.ctato-, addressed the Reichstag in
terms quite different from those that
had been expected Snd feared, CRATE
fully accepting President Roosevelt's s
proposals for international disarma-
ment in the interest of peace, sur
prise was expressed in the capitals
of Europe, and some skepticism was
manifested regarding his. sincerity.
Since then the view has been advanced
that in point of fact Hitler was merely
executing maneuver like that Of
the retreat Of the German forces in the
Great War from the advanced position
in France to a new line that had been
previously prepared. 1t is pointed out
that just prior to the deliverance in
the Reichstag Hitler had conferred
with President Won Hindenburg, whose
name was given to the new strategic
front to which the forces under his
command withdrew in 1917. and the
suggestion is made that it was upon
the advice of the veteran Executive Of
Germany that the chancellor adopted
this policy of withdrawal and re-
establishment.
The German retreat in 1917 to the
Hindenburg line took the allies COM
pletely by surprise. They had no notion
that for a long time past work had
been in progress behind the front in
the preparation Of a stronger breast
work than that which 1t had been
occupying, and against which they had
for many weary months been fiinging
their forces. When the retrograde
movement took place and the stub
bornly held advanced positions that had
resisted the most furious and costly
assaults were abandoned, the more
optimistic of the allied leaders looked
upon it as a sign of the collapse of the
Teutonic onset, and this view was
shared by the peoples Of the allied
countries, whose hopes for victory had
sunk almost to the point Of despair. A
short time only was required to demon
strate that instead of a collapse the
retreat meant stouter stand than ever,
with the terrain in front of the new
German line ravaged to the point Of
affording practically no shelter for the
pursuing and finally checked allied
troops and over which the German
forces later made a grand assault that
was almost successful.
There is undoubtedly certain like
ness between the two maneuvers, that
of Hindenburg in 1917 and that of
Hitler in 1888. The chancellor had not,
perhaps: prepared the new position with
any definiteness, but he had possibly
anticipated some such move as that Of
President Roosevelt, which was almost
explicitly addressed to the German
situation. Whether he had any inti-
nation that 1t was coming, or acted
swiftly upon its deliverance, he executed
his movement of retreat and re-en-
trenchment skillfully. He is now in
much stronger position than before.
He was then out In dangerous salient.
He is now entrenched behind a stout
line, against which the allies Of 1888
are not likely to launch an assault.

better understanding of the way to
meet the problems Of marketing, Of
how to distribute the products of mills
and factories, is evidenced by the in
creasing number of studies Of con-
sumer needs and preferences and the
