Mr.. Editor:
Again, let us with the Fisher
man" exclaim: 80 the pity Of it,!
Those who listened to broadcast
last Thursday heard of the dim
ner given by the kiwanis club to
$50 underprivileged children, and
were told that this was the 18th
wear it had done so. A beautiful
thing for them TO do.
1t was in a northern city, but
might easily have been reported
from a southern city.
But the thought persisted in
my mind. Why so many under
privileged, and for so many
years from famine? or epidem-
les of disease? No!
This nation rejoices in the fact
that science in agriculture en-
ables us to produce food enough
for all. Medical science prevents
epidemics and promotes healthtul
living. Why then does not the
science Of government promote
the distribution TO food products,
so that each and all have enough,
and be not dependent on charity?
Let us suppose, for a moment
that the hundred men of that
club, together with their wives
and sisters, applied themselves
IL years to the study of their
problem-governing a city (and
county so that every family had
the opportunity to earn, and pro-
vide a home in which to rear
children.
Behold the clubmen and club
women in our section; = and
church women. how busy, looking
up lists of the needy. Feverish
activity by day, and anxiety by
night, lest some worthy soul be
left out-some child neglected.
Noble motive; yes; far be it
from me to condemn Christmas
giving, or the generous hearted
workers.
But this wholesale charity
not the motive, but the method
leaves something to be desired. Is
there not a better way? In the

Soviet Russia does its best to pretend that there
is no such thing as Christmas. The All-Union God
less Society uses the season for renewed drive to
divert people from religion. The government calls
the Central Executive Committee to meet on Dec.
%. The slogan is: "100 per cent attendance {
workers at their Jobs on Christmas Day" Russia,
trying to embarrass the Christian world, succeeds,
but not in the way it Observation-Disclosures is EN-.
barrassed only because Russia tries to rob itself Of
the highest good-Christian Science Monitor.

State Patrol To
Make Drive on
Unlicensed Cars

RALEIGH. Dec. 2S.-The So
state highway patrolmen in the
state are busy polishing up their
motorcycles to get after motor
lists who do not have their new
1884 automobile license plates by
the morning Of January |. For
Governor J. C. b. Ehringhaus has
already issued orders, to Director
/. S. Harris Of the motto vehicle
division of the state department
Of revenue. who in turn has is
sued the orders to Captain Chas.
d. Farmer and all patrolmen that
beginning at sunrise, January l
next Monday-to arrest all mo-
florists found operating their cars
under the old 1888 licenses after
January /. Director Harris and
Commissioner Of Revenue A. J..
Maxwell have also written letters
to all chiefs of police and all
sheriffs, deputies and constables
in the state asking them to CO.
operate with the highway patrol
in enforcing the governors or
der.
The patrolmen are all ready
to carry out the governors Or
ders and it is going to be just
too bad for the car owners who
think they are going to be able
to get by with their old licenses
a week or two longer" Captain
Farmer said. "The patrolmen
have had plenty of time to get
their new motorcycles well broken
in. These new machines are also
equipped with the leg protectors,
making it possible for the pa
trolmen to ride at much faster
speed with less danger. These
new motorcycles can also do bet
ter than 80 miles an hour and
the boys know how to ride EN-.
SO it will be unfortunate if any
motorists tries to outrun pa
trolman-it might result in Il
charge of speeding and reckless
driving as well as of failure to
have a proper license"

HEALTH OF BRITISH
CHILDREN HAILED
Declared More Fit and Better
Fed, Clothed and Nur-
tured Than Ever.

LONDON Especially AT time when
many of King Georges subjects are op-
pressed over the debts column Of the
national ledger, Sir George Newman,
chief medical officer of the ministry OF
health and of the Board of Education,
has diverted attention to a striking
item in the credit column.
1t Is the emergence Of a health con-
science" among the 4,500,000 elementary
school children Of Great Britain and
their parents. Sir George says it is one
of the striking changes that have
passed over the whole of elementary
school life of the country since the
foundation Of the school medical serv-
ice 25 years ago.
"The fact that each child, sick or
well, comes individually into the hands
of doctor and a school nurse three
times in its school life, that the health
and well being of each child is super
vised Is Of fundamental moment" he
declares. "A new kind Of self-respect
has grown up, a health conscience. OF
this there Is abundant evidence-the
children as a whole are cleaner. better
in physique, better fed, better clothed,
better nurtured than they have ever
been since we possessed records of them,
and this evidence is clinched by the
simple fact that their parents have
been through the same hygienic disci-
pline and know its value"
Sir George believes that some of the
most valuable educative work Is being
done in the 5000 maternity and child
welfare centers and the $50 day
nurseries and nursery schools which
supervise the health Of children before
they reach school age. Parents and
children, he contends, take an active,
not a passive, interest in the preventive
and curative aspects of dentistry.

panies. They are long-term and bear
varying rates of interest.
The contractors have taken them to
the banks for discount. But the banks
are said now to hold as many Of them
as they care to have, particularly since
the Bank Of Italy does not rediscount
them. The savings banks, known as
the Case di Risparnio and the Ma
tional Insurance Co., have also large
quantities OF them.
The notes that have not been dis
counted are now in circulation, passing
from one company to another. Since
they are Of varying denominations
above certain level. they serve the
same purpose as currency.
Some of the larger holders Of this
paper have taken it to American banks
having representatives in Italy on the
hope Of having it discounted, but have
not met with success.

ITALY C|RCULATES
UNUSUAL CURRENCY
Promissory Notes Are Issued
to Finance Large-ScaIe
Public Works.

ROME.-An unusual type of money
is in circulation In Italy, made up of
promissory notes of the government
issued to pay for large-scale public
works, such as swamp reclamation,
railroad and highway building and
public ediflces.
The exact quantity of these notes is
unknown. Estimates run from 15,000,-
100000 to $4,000, 600 900 lire Most es-
Inmates agree on about 10000, ,000, 900,
which is so per cent more than the
total budget of the State for one year
The notes have been issued over a
period of about 10 years, but have
never appeared in the budget.
The notes have been issued largely to

LONDON, July 15.-Reports that the
expense account of Raymond Moley,
Assistant Secretary of State, for his re-
cent mission to London had been dis
approved by Secretary of State Cordell
Hull, chief Of the delegation to the
World Economic Conference, provoked
smiles in the American delegation to-
day.
officials said that Mr. Moley's bills
were not passed upon by Secretary Hull,
but would in the natural course OF
events 60 through the hands of Will
liam Phillips, Acting Secretary of State
at washington, and thence to the con-
troller general for final approval.
Some humorous comments had in
deed been passed upon Prof. Moleys S
expenditures. particularly as regards
the dispatch at his request OF an air
plane to meet him at Cobb, Ireland.
This plane, which was understood to
have cost about s400, was not used by
the American Assistant Secretary.
Mr.. Moley, it was said offered his
account here, but the accountant with
the American delegation decided that
It should go through Washington rather
than through Secretary Hull at London.
Expenses for the Moley mission, in
cluding those Of Herbert Bayard SWope,
his associate, were said to be probably
- few thousand dollars although the
exact figure was not known to the
delegation.
within the delegation it was regarded
as fortunate that the professors ex-
penses were not charged to the delega-
ton account, since the appropriation
for the conference representatives is in

Rejected by Government.

OCJCSeSu ny
By the Associated Press.
Assistant Secretary OF State Moley
said yesterday if there were any items
in his London expense account that
were not properly chargeable to the
Government he would pay them him
self.
In q statement regarding criticism
that had been made of an item of $500
for an airplane to take him from Cobb
to London and of a bill in excess of
81 300 for transatlantic telephone con-
.versations, Moley said he would ex
anime the bills in due time and assume
responsibility for any personal items.
The unused airplane. Moley said. was
ordered through the London embassy
when it seemed that his ship would be
greatly delayed in its arrival in Eng
land. The order was Cancelled when it
was found the boat was making up
time, but the plane had LETT for Cobb
before the countermand order reached
the embassy.
State Department officials said Sec
retary Hull had not refused to approve
the Moley expense account and that it
would be handled through the regular

that plant. Last year, it is under
stood, the trap caught more than
500, 900 salmon, mostly of the red
variety.
The complaint further alleges
that the closure is part of an at
tempt on the part of the Pacific
Salmon Corporation to coerce the
Harris company into selling the
False Pass cannery to itself and
eventually to acquire the owner
ship of the trap site.
Not for Conservation
1t asserts that the closure is not
necessary for conservation of the
salmon runs of the immediate
vicinity or in Bristol Bay. 1t ad-
vances the theory that the runs of
fish from which the trap takes toll
are not American fish but run to
spawning beds in Siberia, The COM
pany undertakes to show by tag
ging experiments conducted by the
United States Bureau of Fisheries
in the district that few of the fish
go to the Bristol Bay spawning
grounds.
The order reyoking the trap site
permit was signed by the Secretary
of Commerce on May II, few days
after a hearing was held in Wash
ington, D. c., which was attended
by Mr.. Harris. This order is declar-
ed by the company to have been
issued without justification and
that it results in the taking of
property, especially that of the
plaintiff, without due process in
violation of the provisions of the
Federal Constitution"
Will Resist Suit
During his recent visit here,
Commissioner Bell publicly asserted
the bureau would resist the suit
and carry the case to the highest
courts if it were necessary to es-
tablish the authority of the. Depart
ment of Commerce to make such
orders.

least improbable that government
persistence should in the end pre-
vail against popular instinct and
judgment but the guaranty that it
will not is missing. Americans still
believe that the peace of Europe
depends upon the will of Europe to
have it; upon their willingness to
make arrangements which will per-
NIT it to exist and continue and
not upon the decision to the United
States to commit itself as a party
to any controversy which may arise
out of arrangements which do not
promise war. The American govern
ment thinks otherwise. Europe de-
sires otherwise. Both the American
and other governments should be
warned that agreements made con-
trary to deep national instincts and
opinions are dangerous for every
one concerned"
