The End Of Isolation.

It was the privilege Of the House Of
Commons yesterday to hear from
Prime Minister Macdonald some Amer
ican news hitherto kept from public
knowledge In the United States. Amid
cheers from AL parts Of the House, Mr..
Macdonald announced U that an
immediate Anglo-American tarin truce
Is In sight: ca that the United states
d prepared to take part in consultative
pacts for the "tranquifzing Of Europe,
and 60 that there Is to be concur
rent" discussion Of war debts while the
London Economic Conference Is In
progress. With respect to consultative
pacts and the debts. Mr.. Macdonald
told Parliament that there IS . COM
plete union Of opinion" between the
British and American Governments, re-
sultant from his recent conversations at
Washington with President Roosevelt.
Except in those quarters which still
hold to the belief that economic and
political nationalism. policy Of self
containment which would ignore the
existence Of any world beyond our own
shores, Is the visest course for America
to steer, Prime Minister MacDonsld's
announcement win be hailed In the
Omitted States g one Of the most strik-
ing evidences Of the New Deal yet
manifested. Overshadowingly the most
important revelation Is the reported

Trade as Assurance
OF Peace
From the Pasadena Star-News.


American Japanese trade relations
are set forth in attractive and instruc-
tive terms in a recent special japanese,
number Of the New York Journal Of
Commerce. The publication is particu-
larly timely, inasmuch as leading flg-
ureS of the Far Eastern island empire
speak frankly concerning the losses their,
nation and people would suffer in the.
event of interruption of commercial
exchange. :
For example, Count Uchida, minis
ter Of foreign affairs, notes that tha
United States is the market for nine-
tenths Of Japan's export silk, for two,
thirds Of Japan's export tea and for
and canned crabs. In return, Japan.
purchases from America vast quantities
of cotton, oil, wheat, steel and con-
struction materials. THE people Of
the United States and Japan have a
bond to the extent of $3.50, 900, 600 q,
year in trade to keep the peace between
them" Count Uchida said, as quoted by
the New York paper. He pledged con-
tinuation Of the policy Of the open door
In the Orient. =
Katsuji Debuchi, Ambassador to the
United States from Japan, has no
reservations in discussing conditions as
they now exist. He has ''an abiding
faith in the essential soundness of our
relations with the United States" not
the Manchurian inci-s
dent. "Our friendship with America,
made secure through long years Of
tradition, has become a sort Of creed. !.
This creed Is not matter of sentiment
1t Is conviction based upon economic
and cultural foundations"

Nearing Completion.

It Is something especially gratifying
to. the soul to witness the last stages
Of labor on a great new building. Just
now such spectacle is afforded by the
Post ONCE Department edifice at
Pennsylvania avenue and Twelfth street.
For months the site has been . scene
of action. with scores of men moving
over it in the performance Of the
miracle Of construction. Each Of these
workers has been taking part In the
creation Of . masterpiece Of practical
architecture, and each must feel the
sense Of victory which surely comes
with the steady progress Of the task
from deep, unseen foundation stone to
topmost ledge and parapet. Their JOY
quite Is certainly must be shared BY
many whose only interest has been that
Of bystanding observers.

Scores the Defiance
OF the SsCold HOarder''

To the Editor Of The Star:
They're not all dead yet. II the
s4-year-old former Colorado Governor
and United States Senator ever pos
sessed the logic becoming Of such M-
fices. he has certainly become dotty.
Otherwise we must rightly hold him to
account for his foolish and useless
challenge Of our worthy President's
ed1ct concerning gold hoarders. More
over. he Is setting very poor example.
He Is certainly not loyal to our Presi-
dent and his good and honest efforts
to do what he deems right and proper,
II not strictly urgent, for the improve
ment Of our country's financial condi-
ton. Neither Is he showing any real
patriotism by his dubious claims Of
unconstitutionality.
What possible good can come of
attempting to thwart the carrying out
capable President? What Is to be
gained If he does prove such action
against unpatriotic hoarders to be un-
constitutional, other than mere self
satisfaction to himself and other ar
rogant, egocentric and perhaps vora-
ciouS men?
Our beloved and esteemed President
Roosevelt, in making such edict against
gold hoarders, did SO In good faith
and in an effort to help the financial
structure Of our sorely beset country.
Therefore, knowing leadership and
action to be necessary and, by Gods
race, having 1t now In the White
House, where Is there any logic in balk-
ing and opposing the good efforts
being made?
"Co-operation and assistance" Is the
battle cry now. We've had enough Of
the baking mule attitude In the last
Congress. w. RAY CARPENTER.

Ambassador Daniels.

From the Nashville Banner
It appears that Communists in Mex
leo City were mainly responsible for
the demonstration by way of protest
against Josephus Daniels as Ambas-
sador.
The circumstance that he was Sec
retary Of the Navy at the time Of the
bombardment Of Vera Cruz in 1914 was
utilized to inflame an element Of the
population against Mr. Daniels, but the
responsible officials made it plain that
such was not the attitude Of the gov
eminent.
The attempt to wreck the train upon
which Mr.. Daniels was travelling Is
charged to Communistic plotting.
The talk which Mr.. Daniels made to
the newspaper correspondents at the
embassy soon after his arrival was in
pleasing vein. He declared that 1t
would be his primary purpose ito seek
better understanding and cooperation
IN relations and In improvement of
commerce and trade between the United
States and Mexico" Closest association
and cooperation should exist between
the two republics. 1T is the common
and every other right" he said.
"We used to think oceans and noun
tains divided nations; We now know
they united them. It is now agreed
that what concerns one nation concerns
all. Aloofness and isolation forever are
ended. Nations must cooperate in their
problems.
Mexico and the United States are
brothers in every matter. It is incon-
ceivable that one can prosper without
the other. The principles of mutual
respect, outlined by Ambassador Nor
row years ago, are so fundamental there
Is no need to try to improve them"
The new Ambassador to Mexico Is q
man Of kindly nature, affable manner,
and may be relied upon to adhere to
the tactful policy that characterized
the bearing Of Ambassador Morrow"

The Golden Angel on
The Mormon Temple
To the Editor OF The Star

To the Editor Of The Star.
We cannot pass Sixteenth and Har-
ward streets without looking up at the
golden figure on the spire of the new
Mormon Temple. With what consum-
mate skill the artist shows the spirit
of the angel who Is so boldly proclaim
ing his message! In every line and
curve Of that heroic form, in the poise
Of the body and tilt of the trumpet,
there is a vigor and fearlessness that
arrests attention. No shadow Of doubt
nor trace Of wavering weakens the call
thus literally proclaimed from the
housetop.
This striking conception of the last
trump that shall sound is more than q
statue or a symbol. 1t almost seems
an impending event and bids US pause
for reflection. Were We q member Of
one of the orthodox churches and had
remained, through these changing times,
well grounded in the old fundamentals
We might have some apprehensions as
to Just how soon this golden trumpet
may sound. w. E. THARP.

Publicity Should Check
Loss in Numbers Game

To the Editor Of the Star:
I think your articles on the num-
bers" game, which according to your
paper takes some 100000 q day out of
the pockets Of salaried people Of WASH
ington, are very commendable.
They should bring home to those peo-
pie who are throwing their money away,
and are being gypped by these small
time. gamblers, word Of admonition
and warning. I assume that it is the
unintelligent class, which does not have
the benefit Of substantial advice, that is
falling for this racket, and II your ar
ticles are continued and are dominat-
ing enough with the $4,000 Evening
Star readers. they are bound to put q
crimp in this graft that is taking money
required for the necessities Of life from
people who can Ill afford it.
sincerely trust the publicity you are
giving this petty gambling, which in
the aggregate costs the people Of Wash
ington so much. will within q short
space Of time effectively minimize this
waste. CLARENCE w. GROSNER.

the. discoveries Of the construction art
Few may realise 1t, but the technique
which has brought it into being traces
back to the first genius who ever set
one rude rock upon another to frame
. wall. Ten thousand years ut least
have been required for the accomplish
ment Of the training and the accumu-
lation Of the experiences which are
manifested In the work. Point by
point the race has learned the rules Of
the building game. The men who have
raised this splendid addition TO the
Capitals quota Of beautiful and useful
fabrics are the inheritors Of all the lore
Of the craft. Viewing the fruit Of their
efforts It is possible to vision the
Pharaohs Of Egyp-not slave-drivers,
as vainly has been supposed, but public
benefactory. deliberately creating en-
ployment for their people-planting
pyramids, obelisks and temples against
the sky. The Greeks, too. led W
Pericles, guided by Ictinus, Calhcrates
and Pheidias, and the Romans, cap
tained by Augustus Caesar, are repre-
sented In the basic elements Of the
conception, while the cathedral guilds
which invented the Norman and the
Gothic styles Of frozen music" are
remembered for their several contri-
buttons to the philosophy Of architec-
tural histology. All are here-the plus
values Of their intelligence and toll,
undying in the recollection Of mankind.
1t appears to be . good tradition
which associates the gradual causative
mutation Of . monumental building
with the simile Of weaving. Metaphor
ically, the new Post once Department
Building Is . tapestry Of construction
and into 1t have been woven threads
whose origin is lost In distant mystery,
but whose pragmatic significance is that
Of sturdy cables to bind together the
future, the present and the past; to
preserve the integrity Of the race and
to render our generation worthy Of its
place In imperishable time.

Issue Billions Based
On Prospective Debts

To the Editor of The Star.
As one not pretending to deep fnan-
cial erudition, have the following sug-
gestion to offer provided you deem 1t Of
suficient potential utility to warrant
publication.
Inasmuch as the present monetary
deflation may be attributed in part to
the vast volume Of European war debts
still outstanding, why might not sew
eral billions of ordinary currency be
issued against these debts, redeeming
Liberty bonds Herewith, and then re-
firing the currency in future years as
fast as the war debts are paid?
This would be swelling the bulk Of
actual circulating medium only tempo
rarily, to Offset the deficit caused by
the advance Of funds to England and
France for financing the World War.
Perhaps the simplest mode of ab-
sorbing the resultant imitation would be
to destroy the money repaid on the
debts as received, the effect Of the trans
action being equivalent to an immediate
total realization of these immobilized
assets at time when so sorely needed
to improve prices, stimulate business
and increase employment

Old Age Pensions.
From the Altoona Mirror.


A total Of AZ States have now
adopted old-age pension laws. In these.
States INDECENT men and women who
are too old to work will not have to,
go to the poor house and suffer the.
stigma of pauperization. Instead they,
will be able to draw regular incomes
from their State treasures, and while.
these incomes will not be large they
will at least keep their recipients from !.
starvation and will save their SELF
respect. :
But that is not the whole story. Ac-,
cording to reliable estimates, the "a,
States involved will find this means Of
caring for the aged poor less expensive
than the old system. The poor house :
Is not only cruel and spirit-breaking: -
1t is outlandishly expensive And, in-S
cidentally. the pension laws will remove
from the labor market those pathetic,
old job-hunters whose desperation
causes them to agree to work for micro
scopically low wages.
All in all, the arguments for old age
pension laws are pretty strong. The
