Whether motives of patriotism or
realization Of his impotence have led
Sandino to smoke the pipe of peace at

Is prophecy Of snow in February, and
more likely to be fulfilled. The Hagers-
town Almanac. which is a veritable
wade mecum" for multitudes in this
section Of the country, especially In the
matter Of meteorology. has scored a
definite success with respect to yester-
days snowfall. Under its standing
heading Conjecture of the Weather"

The snow came on the fourth day Of

Immediately those who are concerned

terests, hence boarding and an undue
emphasis upon our own immediate and
personal concerns.
The third stage in the process is
when we recover from the panic and
from an undue desire to think solely
in terms Of our personal concerns and
we come to realize more fully the mean
ing of the ancient dictum: Meme Of us
'liveth unto himself"
From the more limited vision of our
own little field of operation and self
interests we come to recognize the
meaning of communal interests. We
part company with our party passwords
and shibboleths and give ourselves more
largely to those larger concerns that
have to do with the community as a
whole. In such conception there is
no place for bigotry or intolerance. In
these more recent days we have had a
splendid exhibition of this spirit. Pos
sibly at no time in more recent years
have we witnessed finer demonstra-
tion of comradeship and social respon-
sibility than in those large community
interests in which Catholic, Jew and
Protestant have found an increasing
fellowship in the service of their less
fortunate brothers. 1t may be that We
are approximating more nearly the
ideals Of the great Master of men than
in any period of our history. His in
comparable parable Of the Good Sa-
maritan, together with His second great
command, Thou shalt love thy neigh
Dor as thyself," we are coming to un-
derstand in q new light. No matter
how loyal we may be to our own house
holds and the traditions of the group
with which we have been long affiliated
We cannot afford In such days as these
to stress the lines Of division or to en-
phasize our party affiliations. We are
bound together "for better or worse, for
richer or poorer" and the sooner We
recognize this the sooner will we begin
to set our house in order and to re-
cover from the disaster that for the
time being has paralyzed our energies
and hindered our onward march toward
the attainment of our cherished ambi-
tions. If we of America can learn more
completely the meaning of our solidar-
ity and unity as people, If we can be
more generous in our appraisals and
more kindly in our judgments. we shall
emerge from the present shadows
stronger. better and more wholesome
people.

An Amazing Incident.

Mr.. Barrys host of friends, who know
his fine qualities. are amazed at his
indiscretion in printing the magazine
article which has brought upon him,
deservedly, the wrath of the Senate.
While holding his Office he has written
and there has been published In a cur
rent magazine an article which by the
plainest of inference asserts that few
members of both houses of Congress
sell their votes. He has admitted that
he wrote In general terms, without per-
sonal knowledge of venality on the part
Of any member of the Senate and with
out proof to sustain his charge He
faces certain removal from Office, and
probably an indictment for libel in the
criminal court.
Criticism CT Congress. both as to
politics and methods has been indulged
in ever since its creation Members Of
both houses engage in it, both as to
parties and blocs and as to individuals
But the specific charge of actual venal-
ity and corruption has rarely been
brought, and then cnly in broad and
general terms, such as those that by
clear implication are contained in the
offending article which so aroused the
wrath Of the Senate yesterday Had
the insinuation, to give it the mildest
term, been made by a speaker in an
other assemblage, or by a writer Of
commentaries CT news, not connected
with the organization, it would have
attracted no more than brief attention
and evoked no more than general denial
and denunciation But in the present
case the fact that the author of the
words which 50 clearly pointed to be-
lief If not knowledge Of venality was
an officer of the Senate greatly aggra-
waited the offense
Perhaps the incident will have its
value. in causing critics of Congress to
be more careful and more explicit and
better informed before speech or pub
lication than was the unfortunate off,
clal who must now pay penalty for his
bad judgment in engaging in nbelous
public commentary upon even a few
unnamed members of the legislative
body which employed him.

WIDER HORIZONS
BY THE RIGHT REv. JAMES E. FREEMAN, D. D, IL. D,
Bishop of Washington

None Of us nveth unto himself" {"
This Is obviously true, and yet the
average of us lives his or her life as
though 1t were independent and apart
from the lives Of those with whom we
have daily contact. This Is particu-
larly true in days when everything is
normal and every condition favorable.
It is in such periods that individualism
has its largest expression. 1t is only
when a situation arises that approx
mates a crisis that we suddenly become
that. in a very real sense, we are in
timately related to the body corporate.
We all have a sense of our corporate
relationships and we yield to the maxim
that, "in unity there is strength" On
the other hand, We are greatly affected
by the limitations of our environment
and by the small and restricted group
to which We are closely bound by social
and commercial ties.
Someone has we'll said that man
Is "as large as the environment in
which he lives" Those who survive
environing conditions constitute our
real leaders and statesmen. It Is
natural that we should be affected by
our social. religious and political affili-
ations and 1t requires supreme effort

period through which we are now pass
ing is compelling us to think more
largely of life's intef-relationships We
find it difficult. at times, to discover
what valuable lessons, If any, such
crisis as the present one is designed
to teach. Every one feels the burden
which it imposes and the economies
which 1t increasingly demands. 1t may
be that we are thinking too much Of
these things and failing to profit by
the more important lessons which they
are seeking to enforce. Crises inevi-
tably produce in us certain definite
effects. In their early stages they
create panic; they rob us of our poise
and our capacity to deliberately weigh
their significance. Judgment is i'm
paired and our thinking confused. We
are incapable of seeing the irresistible
logic of events.
The second stage finds us driven to
the consideration Of our cwn self-inter-
ests-every man for himself-the uni
versal rule Of self-preservation domi-
mates us all. We would save from the
Wreckage those things that have to do
with our own personal and family in
