Burne-,Jones,

Today in England the centenary OF
the birth of Sir Edward Burne-Jones
is being celebrated, and it is right that
there should be some echo in America
Of the chorus of appreciation. Thcu-
sands of people in the United States
are familiar with his works through
the device Of printed reproduction, and
though few may be acquainted with the
story of the painter himself, there is
general perception Of the fact that only
a very exceptional character could have
been responsible for achievement so
uniformly graceful, delicate and beau
tiful.
Burne-Jones was a Birmingham boy
who went from King Edwards School
to Exeter College. oxford, with the
church as his intended vocation. But
the friendship of william Norris and
an exuberant admiration for Dante
Gabriel Rossetti DETECTED him from
that course at twenty-three. With no
artistic inheritance worthy of mention,
with nothing to stimulate his pencil
and brush except his burning ardor
and anxiety to learn, he began to prac-
tice illustration under conditions which
easily might have discouraged a less
devoted spirit The struggle was
strenuous in the extreme and it is
small wonder thai more than once it
exhausted the toiler. But his friends
encouraged him to persovere. and the
hour came at last when he could rise
above their tutelage Then the world
had a revelation-a new apostle of hu-
man lovelineSs raised the curtain Ct
his studio, and compositions like The
Mirror of Venus" The Wine of Circe,
'Love Among the Ruins, THE Golden
Stairs" and "Cophetua and the Beggal
Maid" were disclosed to public
hungry for SO pure and rich ar
affirmation Net even the great italians
whom Burne-Jones respected inordi-
nately were more competent to de-
lineate and interpret sheer grace ano
harmony than the erstwhile divinity
student who so late had learned tt

gloves. is going to take strong and
stern MEASURES to cope with them.
What is Contemplated is war against
the crimlNl And the campaign will
be organlzd on that basis, with little
stress for he present on the possibil-
tiles of refoming the evildoers.
1t was notced also that most of the
suggestions made favored increased
authority forthe Federal Government.
| The AmericanScotland Yard idea found
a good deal o favor, although it was
recognized thai the creation of such a
force might be tSented by State author
tiles proVerblalt jealous Of their rights.
Warden LaweS went so far as to urge
an immediate declaration of martial
law, and the vilhal elimination of State
lines with full police powers conferred
upon the FedeNl authorities.
Other Suggestions showed a marked
trend toward feater Capitalization of
authority in Wilmington. such as the
creation of cental co-ordinating crime
bureau. Federal eontrol of firearms, a
constitutional Amendment to give the
Federal Governrent concurrent juris-
diction over crhe. There was AN
argument for thelash and exile for the
gangster. Destiied to meet strong
opposition will bt the proposal for the
registration of evty body in the United
States so that q eek may be kept upon
their activities.
1t is unlikely hat all these sugges-
tions will be apprSed. But if anything
is to be achievedit is plain that there
must be greaterdegree of cooperation
between Federal and State authorities
And we may exfct to see more power
concentrated in ne central government.
After all, we ae confronted with a
national menace 1t is a situation in
which We cannt rely on tie tactics
of peaceful per, ,,asion. But whatever
measures are adpted, efficient and fear

The Cost of Bread and Milk.

When bakers and milk producers
begin explaining the high cost of these
essential products, the average con-
sumer is somehow left with the impress
sion that the price Of wheat IS the
least important of all the elements that
go into bread-making, and that the
price paid the farmer for his milk has
practically no influence whatever III
determining its cost delivered at the
doorstep. The puzzled consumer Is
inclined in both cases to prefer the cost
paid for bread and milk to the agony
of seeking light through the maze OF
figures that are always on tap to ex-
plain both.
The investigations now under way to
determine why the price of bread is
increased by a cent a loaf in the Dis
trict, when the price of bread here
seems to have been higher than almost
anywhere else in the United States
and to find out why milk producers get
rich selling milk, while the farmer. who
milks the COW, gets poor, will be
watched with extraordinary interest
More power to the Investigators
It is true that the bakers and the
milk distributors are flying the Blue
Eagle, and the flying of the Blue Eagle
denotes willingness on the pct of the
flyers to increase their operating costs
1t is also true that the professors of
wheat are paying tax which is col
lected to pay the farmer for not grow
ing as much wheat as he used to do
And it is also true that one of the aims
of the recovery program is to boost
prices But in the case of bread, Fred
erick c. Howe, consumers counsel of the
Agricultural Adjustment Administration
points out that the price of bread has
always been high in Washington, and he

Recovery.

Recovery.
We find Human Nature is hard to direct,
It's members are never entirely correct.
Human Nature is only Of Nature part
And Nature herself makes US plead,
have a heart!"
But let us be patient and ride through
the storm
Through days that are either too cold
or too warm.
Philosophers join with the heathen to
And even old ocean declines to behave.
We're out to Recover, Relieve and
Restore,
We've done so beforehand we'll do so
some more.
For Nature still follows her principles
true,
Just give her support and we're bound
to pull through.

A Shuttle in the New Deal.

A Shuttle In the new Dedl'
The retirement of Prof. Raymond
Moley from the administration is, de-
spite all the polite asseVeratlonS to
the contrary, not surprise. IL was
confidently expected from the time
when he went overseas as special dele
gate of the United States to the Eco
nomic Conference, apparently super
seding the Secretary of State. The
anomaly of the situation was at once
evident to all. Either Prof. Mo!ey
must leave the State Department Or
Secretary Hull would quit. There could
not be two Secretaries of State IN Oh
fee at the same time. Report that
persisted despite general denlals had
it that Secretary Hull had informed
the President that if Prof. Mo!eJ was
at the State Department when he re-
turned from London he would resign
his office. 1t is at least coincidence
that before Mr.. Hull returned Prot.
Moley had been assigned to duty as
special investigator of the criminal
racket problem under the Attorney
General, line of research for which
earlier studies and services had fitted
him. After that the definite retire
ment of the professor from the Federal
service was only a matter of time, and
it has proved to be very short time.
The placing of an intimate personal
friend of the President in Office as
subordinate of the Secretary Of State
who was not in action or initiative ac-
tually subordinate to him was mistake.
Fortunately, it did not lead to trouble.
though it caused some distress of mind
at London and exposed the admins
tration at Washington to some asper-
sions from the delegates to the con-
has been found through the generous
enterprise of a capitalist who, himself
an ardent admirer of the President, de-
sires to establish a weekly magazine de-
voted to the exposition and support
of his policies and measures for ma
tional recovery. Whether there is in
fact need CT such medium of ad
vocacy is a question. The administra-
ton is not suffering from lack of un-
derstanding or support on the part of
the press of the country. 1t is, indeed,
receiving the fullest possible measure Of
support, hearty and in respect to some
features Of the program enthusiastic.
But Mr.. Astor says: "As we see it,
there is nov as surely never before
a wide and useful field for free, i'm
partial and vivid Interpretation each
week Of the momentous changes taking
place in our American life: there is
also the need of a vehicle for the ex-
preston OF those ideas and proposals
that will tend to direct those forces
along planned and progressive chan
nels." Whether a weekly magazine, even
so abundantly financed as the per-
sonal fortunes of the promoter of this
medium premise, and even so ably con-
Quoted as Prof Moleys talents and en-
thusiasm assure, will greatly aid the
cause Of the recovery program is per-
haps debatable. At any rate, the en-
terprise offers a way out Of situation
that might easily have done more harm
to the administration of President
Roosevelt than all the possible good
that may come from this latest shuttle

THIS AND THAT
BY CHARLES E. TRACEWELL.

Do home gardeners know how they
achieve given result, after all?
This Is our thought. after making 6
digest of replies received from readers
as to the best methods of causing lille.
to grow tall.
Some had planted bulbs of Liliun
speciosum, both the magnificum and the
rubra, as deep as 10 inches, and hac
the stalks grow and S feet high
Others had planted their bulbs al
shallow as inches. in some instances
and even inches, in several cases.
X X * X
Some gardeners had planted in shade
others in partial shade.
Some on Sloping land, others on the
level: some in what is called "rich
EARTH" and others In soil which they
SAID was somewhat lacking in food ele-
mentS.
sample letter follows:
Dear Sir: I have read with interest
your article in The Star concerning
'speciosum lilies This season I have
had the pleasure of growing and flower
ing l.. speciosum rubrum to nearly 4
feet in height. while others of the same
variety ranged in height from / % 2
1eet and their buds have not opened as
yet. Their location is different from
the Towering one.
The choice specimen is growing In
partial shade, in soil that last year was
pine growth intermixed with dogwood
and scrub oak, consequently rich ir1
humus. No special precautions were
taken in planting the bulb. in fact. all
that 1 cid was to dig a hole about lC
inches deep with trowel and place the
bulb therein.
This garden spot slopes gradually
to the south and the soil is light In
texture; naturally good drainage is eff
fected.
About the base of the plant ! have
allowed protective growth of petunias
ana some weeds. 1 also flowered in
TINS spot Lflium auratum, which re-

The companionship of trees. evidently
either past or present, results in good
lilies.
The original case Of head high spe-
closum lily, as inStanced here several
days ago, occurred be.:eath locusts.
The lily reported on above grew high
IN lot formerly the home of small
pines and dogwoods.
Not only will such soils be somewhat
acid, owing to the fall and decay of
leaves and the action of moisture on
moses and the like but there NAV exist
some subtle relationship between trees
and lilies
Such friendships exist among ami
mails: they may have a place among
the dumb things of the vegetable king
dom.
After all, life is life. and primarily
the same, wherever or however it oc-
ours. in what strange form.
Lille seems to demand relationships.
call them friendships, if one will. These
exercise beneficial influences. 1t NAV
be that smaller plants group around
trees for relations not alone physical
nut IN a sense psychical.

1t is easy enough to pooh pooh such
IDEAS, but the surest thing in the world
Is that very little has been discovered
by man about life. even after all these
centuries of investigation
Life and its component death are as
great mysteries today as ever they were.
One has but to own small home
aquarium to understand this perfectly.
thus one idea that man really knows
nothing about life, after all
Here behind these shining glass walls
