The Goudys.

Frederic and Bertha Goudy need no
advertising among those who appreciate
good printing and graceful topographic
design. They are a legend which re-
quires no ampliflcation. And yet it is
a pleasure to pay them tribute, and
that. doubtless, explains the recent
celebration in New York. Their friends
desired to have the experience of
eulosizing them; and they, perforce,
were obliged to submit to the ordeal.
Frederic was an accountant and
Bertha was his wife. They were as
poor as the classic church mouse, but
they had ideas-they loved beautiful
books and wished to supplement their
number. The difficulty was that of lack
of capital. For time their Village
Press vibrated between success and utter
failure. One day disaster would stare
at them; the next it would retreat
Only gradually and by dint of tireless
labor did they emancipate themselves
from its threat.
Now Frederic is considered "the
greatest living artist in type" and his
name is linked with those of Caslon,
Baskerville, Jenson and Garamond;
even with that of Gutenberg. His
genius Is universally recognized. No
other American has made an equal
endowment Of the printers art. And

You must see Mrs. Goudy. I could

The partnership is a modern idyl
and its influence is vastly stimulating

that it would be we'll for the American
home. for American civilization. if all
married folk might toll and dream

MISDIRECTED LIVES
BY THE RT REV. JAMES E. FREEMAN d. d. LII. d. D. C. L.
Bishop Of W Wahington

How many men and women in this
world of ours fail of wholesome OBJ
jective because of want Of knowledge
or the wrong kind of leadership! How
many young men and women. whose
early careers have been marked by
promise, come to disappointment and
disilluionment for lack of proper
training! II did not mean to do it."
is the plaintive cry of the child whose
disobedient ways have brought disap-
pointment to its parents. I have heard
this cry uttered again and again by
men of mature years when, as the
result of mishap, miscalculation Or
an overt act they have felt the stern
imposition of deserved penalty.
Those of us of mature years have a
heavy responsibility for the youth OF
our generation. In more recent times
stern and unjust criticism has been
passed upon the youth of the age
and this without due consideration of
the failure of their elders in teaching
and practice. Frequently in we'll regu-
lated homes We hear the complaint of
fathers and mothers concerning the
wayWardness. indifference and care
lessness of their children. Long ex-
perience has made evident to us that
much of this youthful INSTRUMENTATION
and departure from conventional ways
is but the reflection of parental
habit that is unresponsive to the ways
Of decent and orderly living
In the eyes of the young. practice
is more than precept and wholesome
example does more for stimulation TO
the high things Of character than all
our dogmas and voluble expressions OF
faith. Any one who is reasonably con-
versant with the drifts and tendencies
of the modern youth movement must
feel sympathetically and kindly dis
posed to those whose uniformed char
acters are subjected to conditions that
contribute to unrefinement and pow
erty of life.
Now and again striking case pre-
sents itself that illustrates the utter
failure of our boasted development
along cultural and disciplinary lines.

in this country's opinion, viz. that IN
defiance of Chinese law, there has been
established in Manchukuo, for revenue
producing purposes. an opium monopoly,
which constitutes "the largest single
venture ever undertaken in Illicit traf-
fic in narcotics
The State Department spokesman de-
clared that "the laws arl6 regulations
set up under the present military occu-
patton in Manchuria are not only in
contravention Of Chinese law; they
afford the most inadequate control and
the local Illicit traffic in opium is re-
ported as constantly growing. Exploita-
ton OF Manchuria as a base for inter-
national illicit traffic will inevitably
follow the introduction of Persian
opium into this country"
The League commission vas in
formed that the United States views
these developments with alarm and be-
lieves that they involve ''insidious at
tempts to evade existing treaties and to
undermine the present international
control Of narcotic drugs" 1t appears
that the profits of the Manchukuo
opium monopoly have been mortgaged
as security for a loan, a circumstance
the State Department representative
said. which warrants the supposition
that Manchukuo purposes making
opium profits as great as possible"
A quaint touch to this distressing pic
ture is supplied by the fact that propa-
ganda for opium smoking is scattered

Conservation Corps of 100000 young
men stationed in 1,468 forest camps
throughout the country. These con-
servation workers have already accom-
plished excellent results in improving
the remaining forest stands. building
bridges, roads and trails and cleaning
up debris and rotten timber. which
always present a serious fire menace
They have planted trees and prepared
the cutover lands for new growth.
4 X * 4
In the past Americans have given
little attention to the value of timber
as raw material largely because it was
Natures gift. Now that the taxpayers
money is invested in tree growing and
forest conservation on a large scale
and under the most modern conditions,
one of the c. G. c. staff predicts that
the entire Nation will become more in
terested in the utilization of these man
grown forests. 1t Is right on this point,
no doubt, that the real basis for our
forest conservation will be established.
People today may be inclined to over
look the tangible benefits of the work
of the Civilian Conservation Corps. Ex-
perts point out that future generations
will refer to these activities as the first
important step in placing our forests on
a perpetual yield basis.
1t Is admitted that We have an ex-
cellent staff Of expert foresters in both
our national and State forest services.
For years these agencies nave operated
under a heavy handicap due to the
lack of public interest in forestry prob
lens. The American public Is now
forest conscious. but II required . na-
tional emergency to bring about this
change Of attitude.

The Worlds Work.

DR.. Thomas T. Read of Columbia
University is keen student Of the
economics of the worlds work. A min
ing engineer by profession, his inquirine
mind has pried into hundreds Of indus
trial problems. He has measured the
daily toll of earth's scattered children,
collected Illuminating statistics on tech
niques and processes. methods and
manners of labor and analyzed the
plus and minus values of production
and distribution. Years ago he pub
lished some of his most interesting
findings, and recently he has revised
and brought them up to date.
The Econostat explains his approach:
He computed the daily output OF
work Of thirty nations. embracing the
greater part of the inhabited globe
Taking the energy of a human being
Of coal, petroleum and water, he re.
duced them to a common denominator
horsepower hours, and calculated the
number Of such hours, per capita. per
diem in each Of these thirty countries.
For example, Dr. Read discovers that
two-thirds Of the worlds work is done
by coal and one quarter by petroleum.
He does not say how long these sources
of energy will continue to be available
but the question is reasonably apt. The
time will come when it will be neces-
sary to find substitutes for them The
importance Of the problem is demon
strated by the motor power inherent
in a single barrel Of crude OLA power
capable Of doing as much work as nifty
average toilers laboring full day.
Again, DR.. Read learns that Holland
accounts for more work than the Union
of South Africa, the circumstance man
ifesting among other things, the ad-
vantage of cohesion. coordination and
concentration. And the United States
performs almost half of all the work
done in the world and is the most
thoroughly mechanized nation extant
forty times as much work being done by
machines as by human hands, the de-
velopment exemplifying the present
phase Of the ancient issue of Frank
enstein.
OF course. such a study promotes
almost as many puzzles as it solves
That, presumably, is one Of its pur-
poses-to prompt people to think con-
structively about industrial and eco
nomic trends. DR.. Read is prophet
in that regard as we'll as master OF
research Now. if never before, his
consideration of the worlds work should
be helpful contribution to progressive
thought. 1t is good that at least one
man has been possessed of the genius
to plunge to the utter core Of the uni
versal confusion.

plant equipment Of industry, which 1t
considers already overbuilt. A certifi-
cate of convenience and necessity here

One group of Government officials is

signed to increase their food bill even

They also are convinced that some
body will have to control the flow of
money into new manufacturing plants
so that in the future there will not be

control is viewed by the planners as
just one means Of balancing up farm
income with city income. Like the
tariff, it is considered a sales tax. made
necessary by the protection from foreign
competition afforded manufacturing en-
terpriseS.
Economic planning. in the opinion OF
the President. is here to stay. The in
equalties and the difficulties that have
shown themselves in the first four and
one-half months of planning are taken
as the growing pains of new idea.
! But how the public and the courts
react to the new schemes may deter.
mine their future. President Roosevelt
this week indicated that he thought
the progress so far made had been salts

in a mood to change the direction OF
his experiment, for the time being al
least.
Some parts of the public are restive
under the higher retail prices that have
come in with higher costs of operation
under the Blue Eagle. Farmers are re-
sentful because farm prices have not
risen as rapidly as they expected.
| As for the courts. each test thus fal
made has sustained the validity Of the
recovery program on the ground that
it is justified by an emergency. But
the Supreme Court has not rendered its
verdict as yet. and en opinion on the
constitutionality of the new legislation
is not now in sight.

The Fleet in the Atlantic,

More than ordinary interest attaches
to President Roosevelt's order that the
United States fleet, which has been
concentrated in the Pacific since March,
1882. shall cruise into the Atlantic
ocean next Spring and Summer and
have it's headquarters on the East in
stead of the West coast. until Fall. No
reasons are officially assigned for the
change of base except the desire to
give such of the fleets 4,500 officers
and $4,000 of enlisted personnel as
may call the Atlantic seaboard home a
chance to be, for while, close to those
who are near and dear to them after
a two-year tour of duty on the other
side of the Continent.
Whether this or some other motive
is actually responsible for the transfer
the removal OF the feet from the
Pacific has certain inescapable impli-
cations of an international character
Unquestionably the move, even though
it is to be of temporary nature, will be
hailed with satisfaction in Japan. Ever
since 'the bulk of the United States
Nays fighting force has been stationed
in the Pacific our Japanese friends
have resented what their more jinsoistic
spokesmen interpreted to them as a
hostile gesture in Nippon's direction, as
the feet was moved from the East
to the West coast not long after Japan
embarked upon her Manchurian venture
causing the world to fear that far
reaching international complications
we're destined to ensue. If Japan now
sees in the removal of the feet from
the Pacific, even for a few months. q
token of friendliness toward herself,
nothing but satisfaction will be aroused
In this country.

American rapprochement, to be initiated

Perhaps President Roosevelt thought
the hour propitious one for showing
Japan that the United States, in dealing
with the Soviet, has no glimmer Of an
idea of action that could in any way be
construed as inimical to the island en-
pire Of the East.

responding to the call I anticipated
meeting youth who, while young in

action betrayed evidences Of breeding

conscious OF the gravity of his position,
but In my conference with him made
no plea for further consideration of
the stern penalty that had been I'M
posed upon him. AS he knelt before
me it was hard to realize that one SO
young and physically fine could be within
few days of execution. There was
something SO splendid about his bear

Conservation Campers
Have Earned Their Salt
BY HARDEN COLFAX.

President Roosevelt has become the
dean of the worlds largest forestry
educational institution. with an enroll
ment today of 100000 students. Dis
tributed over 468 camps, his con-
servationists have learned the practical
lesson of forestry. What is more-lt
is the testimony Of their leaderS-they
have earned their salt.
Through their work millions Of citi-
zens have learned about our forestry
problems for the first time In their
lives. This has been called by one
Washington authority "a remarkable
education of the masses in one Of our
economic problems which. under other
conditions. would have required decades
of intensive educational efforts"
In both the Old World and the New
the history of forestry and forest ex-
ploitation has always been the same.
Abundant. or seemingly unlimited, for
est resources have led to reckless waste
and exploitation. This, coupled with
an ever-increasing demand for tree
products. sooner or later has led to a
listed commercial tree growing had no
chance.
The Old World reached this crisis
long ago and the more progressive
countries took energetic steps to safe
guard their forest resources. In Gen.
tral and Northern Europe the forests
have long ago been operated on a per-
petual basis. In other countries the
forests have been superseded by agri-
cultural lands.
This new development in forestry
came when the timber situation in the
United States was showing unmistaka-
BILE signs OF becoming critical. The de-
preston brought the question of forest
conservation to the fore and, at the
same time, brought about what Is now
believed to be q quick solution.
