High Lights on the Wide World
Excerpts From Newspapers of Other Lands

7 MPARCIAL, Montevideo-Our COL
league, El Bien Publico. publishes
today these noble and patriotic
i sentiments:
In another column We repro
ouce sole observations Of the daily I'M
parcial which appeared yesterday after
noon, with reference to the advantages
of conciliating counterpoise between
the greater political divisions whose
animosities are disrupting the peace Of
the country.
1t Is not necessary at present to go
into detail regarding the specific recon-
mendations made Suffice it to say that
the concept is a most important and
selutary one, but will require much
courage and devotion to make it a
reality. The hour is grave. Events of
the past few months have deposited a
sediment Of distrust and unrest in the
life of the people which will require all
our patience and patriotism to dissipate.
But the formula is good. and is the only
one which offers hope Of attainment.
Never were such promises of recon-
citation more needed. We know that
a certain obfuscation deters the prog
ress and achievement of all parties.
None Is wholly right, nor wholly wrong.
Let them, therefore. carefully examine
ali their doctrines and ambitions, and
refrain from further friction regarding
those on which they find themselves to
be united.
Then, this redundancy of motive and
project cleared away. they should with
prudence and candor reason out a
unanimity upon those questions upon
which now they are so divided.
In a country like this of ours, with
t,r irto 1o1
no political philosophy warrants radical
divergence Of views concerning the
methods to be preferred in advancing
our welfare and happiness, one creed is
true and the other false. Either that,
& each group of theories leads us to
thas same Utopia by variant routes,
while otherwise We might all arrive
there in fraternity and peace.
Let us, thereSxe, consider, too, the
expediencies stressed by these competi-
tive organizations. and ratify our rea-
sonable conclusions with votes instead
of voices. Let us thereafter put per-
sonal prejudice and prediction aside,
and insist only upon that which is best
for us all. Then. but not till then shall
We enjoy true Iberty-that larger lib
erty which is not tainted with manifold
excrescences of partisan prerogative.
We have described too often, and ex-
perienced too severely, in days departed,
the results of liberties partial and par
ticular which in their disunity made us
either slaves or miserable victims of
depravity and violence. Let those dead
days bury their dead forever before the
advent Of the new dawn which finds us
q pure and united people!"
Won Hindenburg Urged
For Nobel Peace Prise.
Frankfurter Zeitung, Frankfurter-
am-main.-The Bergen paper, Morgen-
Wis. one of the chief Norwegian journals,
has suggested As q principal candidate
this year for the Nobel Peace Prize none
other than President Paul Won Hinden-
burg of Germany. Should the German
President win this most honorable dis
tinction, he will be the first soldier to
be thus recognized
In the opinion of Morgenvis, "Presi-
dent Won Hndenburg is a solid rock of
integrity and all his acts are founded
upon an affection for humanity which
reaches far beyond the confines of his
own country. His is the most laudable
personality observable since the close
OF the World War and, though in that

armies. this preferment was but the
logical consequence of long discipline
In duty and devotion In that con-
f1ict he esteemed that his trained serv-
ices belonged exclusively to the Father
land, and he was right. Since then
however, Paul Won Hindenburg has
shown the nations that he can be q
leader in peace as well as in war and
no greater champion for international
tranquility has appeared in the past
decade"

Beauty Of Mountains
In Hungary Told.
Magyar Hiralyi Allamvasutak, Buda-
pest.-The Buekk Mountains compose
one Of the most interesting features OF
Hungary. They do not compare in
height with the Alps, for scarcely any
of their elevations exceed 5000 feet
but their picturesque beauty is not al
