TT Is a difficult time for demo-
cratic leaders. From dictators the
trembling onlooker expects bit Of
i the theater, as from the principals
of a play; since they assume to
personify not only the state, but liter
ally power itself, one wishes to find
them melancholy or storming at their
desks, taciturn, Indifferent, command
ing. But how should a democratic
leader act? Does he claim to be proud
of the fact that he owes his power to
the majority? Is he not merely the
president of society that calls itself
parliament because 1t lives from talk?
Nothing, therefore, is wiser for demo-
assumingly as possible. And such sim
plicity has become rare.
Manuel Azana, whose authority as
premier of the youthful Spanish Re
public is furiously disputed and can be
ended or terminated at any moment, is
the most unaSsuming man in the world.
In his appearance everything seems
round; the under developed, middle
sized body. the prematurely bald, al
most clerical head, the double chin,
the shape Of the eyes and the move
ment Of his hands. He gives one, at
first, the impression Of a man who
would not like to overthrow anything.
When one looks closer and hears him
talk, however, one does not need any
knowledge Of his career to recognize an
unwavering resolution. The kind,
brown eyes become piercing behind his
eyeglasses the resigned expression that
has drawn down the corner of his
mouth tightens itself once more.
fall Co,nex Late
Here is q thinking and writing man
who has been called late to the world
Of affairs. A definite platon1c aloofneSs
seems to lift him above his actions, even
today. Azana is clearly Of an esthetlc
nature which does not hate an enemy
and which, even when 1t criticizeS, holds
itself in no wise infallible. Whether he
can weather the turbulence of this
epoch with cush objective and tolerant
feelings depends upon his friends and
the strength of his own will-power.
which he holds in firm readiness. To
me the sight of such wise, thoughtful
statesman with all his power Of self
criticism Is better than that Of the hys-
terical leader who would save himself
and his people evermore in the manner
of the Wagnerian heroes.
A long period of contemplation and
study prepared him for career which
he perhaps had felt within himself, but
to which, previously, he had never dared
to hope he would be called. He has
that frankness and freshness which so
many ministers in democracy lack; un-
like them, he did not conspire in the
intrigues of party life for twenty years.

to the carefree life, he accepts the
change of fortune stoically, he shuts
himself up all Summer long in the
paternal home, which has been saved
from the wreckage of his fortune. He
learns quickly all that is necessary to
pass the exam nation for an important
post in the department of Justice; he
obtains this Office in the Fall-a re-
sponsible position but one which can
not possibly satisfy him.
A few years later he goes to Paris
on q scholarship. He learns to love
France He writes accounts for news
paper, he conceals his own name per-
sistently If he writes anything literary,
and chooses as a pseudonym the name
of q medieval devil But what does in
terest him seriously? French politics.
Without visible study he writes an ex-
cellent book, "On the Military Policy
of France" An internationalist and.
as BELTS a highly cultivated spirit. a
thoroughly pacifistic mind busies itself
with the military policy of a foreign
power shortly before the war. Accord
ingly he sees the war approaching. for
the atmosphere of Central Europe Is
steadily becoming more menacing.
Sees European Problems.
In France Azana has seen the Euro
pean problems with his own eyes; the
war, which followed Immediately after
his return to his native land, discloses
them to him in their entirety. The

assembled its best intellects for more
than 100 years, makes this eccentric

The first thing which his esthetically
trained eyes notice are the old sofas and
chairs. He renovates those in his own
small quarters, and when a young man
criticizes the poor taste OF sacrificlng
pleasant old tradition, he takes a liking
to his new antagonist, he grasps MS
the closest friends. But where are po-
litical matters all this time?

LONDON.-Unimpressed by the argu-
ment that more Americans would visit
Great Britain If the visa fee Of $40 was
slashed or abolished, the British treas
ury again has refused to sacrifice the
substantial revenue which is obtained
from this source
Repeated efforts have been made to
secure a change in visa charges OH
Americans. Among the organizations
identified with the latest futile move
were the London Chamber of Commerce,
the railroad companies and the Incor-
porated Association of Retail Distribu-
tors. 1t is evidently the. treasury view
that the number of tourists will be
limited anyway, and that it will be good
business to collect the $40 from those
who do visit these shores.
Frank Attitude.
1t is at least frank attitude. When,
several years ago, the United States
Government sought to secure reduc-
tion, the foreign Office, then directed
by Sir Austen Chamberlain, based op-
position to q cut on the ground that as
the United States would continue to ex-
act visa charge of $40 from Britons
emigrating to America this country
could not agree to lower charge for
Americans coming here. 1t was con-
tended there must be one charge for all
although there was no emigration from
the United States to Great Britain.
Later, when Lord Snowden was chan
cellor of the exchequer, he turned down
proposed cut because the treasury
needed the money.
In fact, until the slump, the visa fees
paid by Americans constituted hand
some sum and still remains so. The
American domiciled here as the repre-
sentative of American concerns must
also pay visa fee of $40, good for a
year, If he desires to return after trip
home or to the Continent. In some
families the yearly total OF such fees is
$50 or $40.
Much has been published here lately
about the growth Of tourist traffic to
Britain from the Continent. Through
reciprocal arrangements the nationals
Of some of these countries pay only a
nominal visa charge or none at all and,
according to Shopkeepers, the CONT
mental tourist does not spend as much
money as the American and does not
stay here so long.
Keeps Americans Away.
The treasury's attitude on the Ameri-
can visa charge is not the only grievance
of many organizations who stepd %

or part Of any groupf); and on tie
other side we would see America, the
British dominions and, in fact, all
countries outside of Europe.
Where, on this map, is Great Britain
placed? She has separated herself from
Europe; without taking a stand on mid
die ground by not voting. she has asso-
ciated herself with the countries outside
Of Europe.
This attitude should not surprise US,
for it expresses a tendency and an at
traction which were manifest all dur
ing the conference, and which disclosed
one of the essential characteristics of
postwar Britain England is, in truth,

TINE provisions of the industrial
recovery act, making possible
the organization of industries
i into strong trade associations,
are not revolutionary, but rather
make possible a quick return to
the trend prior to the passage Of the
antitrust laws, which throttled ef-
made 1t impossible for industries to
organize their activities effectively on
an intelligent basis.
The only way that the standard Of
living can be kept continuously rising
is to increase production. The only
way that production can be soundly
increased IS to see that the national
economic product moves into consump-
tion, and the only way that this can
be brought about is through the proper
distribution of income As temporary
measure, control of output may be nee
essary in a number of cases, but only
until an equilibrium has been estab-
lished and output raised by means Of
a proper distribution of the national
income
To do overnight what ordinarily
might have taken years IS a mammoth
undertaking, and the number of prob
lens to be quickly settled in making
the about-face are bewildering. How
ever, I believe the benefits to be de-
rived are well worth the attempt, and
that at the present time we need not
be too concerned with minor differ
ences and inconsistencies which can
be remedied later.
Coordination Needed.
In much the same manner as the
executive committee of a company CO.
ordinates the departments, so should
the trade association coordinate the
activities Of an industry. But it is also
essential that the activities of the in
duStries themselves be co-ordinated
AS the inter-relation of industries Is
very close, factors affecting one in
dustry will be reflected throughout the
whole business fabric.
For example, it might be possible
more or less to budget or plan the pro-
duction of automobiles over period of
years, or the amount of necessary build
ing both public and private. If this
could be done in these key industries
and others 1t would have a beneficial
and stabilizing effect on those indus
tries supplying them with materials,
etc., which could, in their turn, more
closly estimate their own requirements.
The uneconomlc policy OF producing
goods in the dark and then looking for
a market for them could be greatly
overcome if real planning efforts were
made by economic bodies through strong
trade associations Fluctuating prices
in inventories could be eliminated by
posting prices at regular intervals, and
various other reforms for the welfare
of the group could be instigated.
If industries, by means of the new
laws and by revision of the anti-trust
laws, are allowed to develop an indus

she does not want to be considered as
forming politically or morally part
of Europe; using a somewhat pedantic
EXPIRE ssion, one might say she is a para
European. Why? Because her empire,
immense territories outside Of Europe,
has placed her center of gravity away
from the old continent; because her COM
mercial. financial and industrial inter
ests are largely in countries across the
sea; and because, finally, America really
constitutes such a center of attraction
for the entire world that the British
Empire feels the call.
This does not mean that Europe does
not also exercise a powerful influence
over England. But it cannot be said

PARIS.-French ecclesiastical circles
have been informed that the canoniza-
ton of Bernadette Soubirous, the peas
ant girl of Lollrdes, whose visions of the
Virgin resulted in the creation of the
worlds greatest pilgrimage, will take
place during the current holy year:
which ends April 2, 1884. The date of
December has been suggested.
It is rs years since Bernadette saw
the vision In a grotto near what was
then an unknown village. Since then
an immense bascilica has been built
above the grotto, as well as vast num-
ber of other religious ediflces nearby,
and Lourdes has become a thriving city.
Arrive by Trainloads.
Pilgrims arriA by trainloads from all
over the world and form professions
which take hours almost every day to
pass before the grotto. Hundreds OF
pilgrims arrive on crutches, which they
leave in the grotto and walk away WITH
out them.
The canonization of saint is one of
the most impressive of Catholic cere-
monies. The Pope himself, assisted by
the entire pontifcal court, conducts the
canonization mass. Prelates from all
countries will be present and the French
clergy in particular will be represented
by numerous archbishops and bishops.
A considerable number of members OF
the Soubirous family will be IN places
of honor
Members of the convent Of Nevers, to
which Bernadette retired after the Vls-
ions, will also be present as witnesses
for the new saint.
Painting to Be Unveiled.
The procedure requires that cardi-
nal demand the canonization of the
saint. Upon the Pope's giving his as
sent, an immense painting of Berna-
dette Soubirous, hung on the wall of St.
Peters will be unveiled and the throng
present will fall to their knees in ado
ration.
On account Of the worldwide popu-
larity of Lourdes as place Of pilgrim
age ard the thousands of miraculous
cures that have been effected there, 1t
is certain that the canonization will at

and spent after the nerve wracking
experiences of the night before
There was no doubt in her mind
that Mona Allen was responsible
for what had happened-Mona
whose invitation to Eve to take
dinner with her had seemed SO
friendly
At first. angrily, Eve tried to think
how she could make the other girl
pay for her tricks. 1t was time for
Mona to learn that two could play

Her slippers had been ruined by the
rough roads and her dress was torn
Gradually, however, Eve came to
consider the matter more calmly
BY Monday morning she had de-
cided that it would be best to ig-
more the whole affair
I'm not going TO be put on the
defensive for an attack she made
on me- Eve told Arlene, after re-
lating all that had happened Satur-

But it was Mona herself who
brought up the subject. She en-
tered the Office, removed her hat
and a moment later was beside
Ewes desk Whatever became of

manded. Il was so worried! The

Then he swung into the tree again and sat on

as though the appearance of the leopards called to

Fearlessly. Tarzan dropped from the tree. With

he had use for it. He wiped off his bloody knife.
