Mythical Ambassador
Non.Existent Policy

The second error in this
report is the alleged aban-
donment by a mythical am
bassador Of so-called Amer
lean policy that never ex-
listed. The so-called policy
Of isolation" which Mr..
Davis is supposed to have
renounced for us before the
League conference, is not
traditional either in Amer
lean theory or in American
practice.
Our traditional foreign
policy is an inheritance from
George Washington. He be-
queathcd it to us in the
farewell address.
In that immortal legacy,
the Father of his Country
thus advised his people:
"ObserUe good faith and JUS
tice tow0rds all nations; eul-
tiUate peace and harmony with
1.-THE great rule of conduct
for us in regard to foreign ma
tions, is, in extending our com
rerciol relations, to haze lDtth
them as little political connec-
tion as possible.
Because Europe "must be
engaged in frequent contro-
versies, the causes Of which
are essentially foreign to
our concern, :" Washington
believed that it must be
unwiSe in us to impllcate
ourselves, by artificial ties,
in the ordinary vicissitudes
of her politics, or the ordl-
nary combinations and col
lisions Of her friendships or
enmities.''

ONCE OVERS

If you would show more in
terest, backed by your own
physical labor, perhaps you
could make your family become
enthusiastic.
When the whole family works
on the home site there is more
incentive for each one to do
something.
It's all very fine for you to
praise what others have done,
as you proudly show your
friends the attractions of your
property, but it would be more
to the point if you would show
a spirit of cooperation in such
matters.
You have done very little per-
Sonally to bring about the
beauty of it.
The family have every right
to feel that they have been I'M
posed upon.
II the head of the family is
a shirker, that spirit is COM
municated to all connected With
the establishment.
If the head is a hustler, and
capable of inspiring enthusiasm,
the others are quite likely to
drink in the proper spirit.

That's life!
Loving or hating woman,

if you get that woman or that
man-that won't settle your
problem for you. Shooting that
woman or that man-that
won't settle your problem,

Malcolm Doziel thought it
would. Malcolm Doziel didn't
know much about thinking,
anyway. All he knew was
wanting. If he wanted some
thing, he went after it. If he
couldn't get it he got mad.
Then he wanted to shoot.
Don't laugh at Malcolm Do
ziel. Are you and I so diff
ferent?
Think of the years you've

No hate is important enough
to risk the waste Of your life.
And no happiness is, either!
Not even the happiness of love.
For love can lead us astray.
as surely as hate. If it isn't
worth while spelling your life
to shoot a woman, neither is
it worth while spending your
life to win woman.
Love is a wonderful thing,
but it isn't the main thing in
life. You can't round out
your life by loving somebody
else, any more than you can
round it out by killing some
body else.
You'll try, of course. We all
try. But, no matter how sue
cessful you are, you'll find in
the end that living is a one
man job-and no one can
help you much. Nor can any
one hinder, unless you give per-
mission.
LIVING YOUR OWN LIFE
THAT'S YOUR FIRST AND
MOST IMPORTANT JOB.
AND IT'S JUST AS CRIMI-
NAL TO THROW THAT JOB
AWAY BY LOVING TOO
MUCH, AS 1T IS TO WRECK
1T BY HATING TOO MUCH.
Other people may come and
go. Love and hate may rise like
hot, dark tides within your
blood. But you must go on
living.
So put up your firearms. Kill
ings won't help you. Nothing's
worth shooting either yourself
or the other fellow for.
Life-that's all that matters.
Get that once in your head.
and you'll rid yourself of a lot
of unnecessary grief.

According to a press dis
patch from Geneva, "Nor-
man H. Davis, American
ambassador t-large," " h as
offered on behalf of the
United States to "abandon
it's traditional policy of iso-
lation. "
There are several errors
in this report. In the first
place, Mr.. Davis is not "an
A m e r i C an ambassador-at
large. " There is no such
American envoy at large.
Moreover Mr.. Davis is not
an ambassador at all. He
has never been nominated to
the Senate for that office
and unless so nominated by
the President and confirmed
by the Senate, he can not
be an American ambassador
anywhere.
Mr.. Davis is only an
agent of the Executive
branch of the Government.
In that capacity he is rep
resenting that branch as our
delegate at the League con-
ference for the limitation
and reduction of arma-
ments. Therefore, he speaks
not for the Government of
the United States, but only
as an agent of one of its
branches.

National Birthright
Or Mess of Pottage

This is Washington S pol
icy. And its corollary is
the Monroe Doctrine by
which we put Europe on
notice that she NEEDLES in
the political life of this hem
isphere at her peril.
Washington's policy was
the policy of Adams and
jefferson, of Madison and
Monroe, of Andrew Jack
son and Abraham Lincoln,
Of Grover Cleveland and
Theodore Roosevelt, and
Calvin Coolidge.
After the Great War, the
attempt was made, at the
Versailles conference to
swap our traditional foreign
policy-our national birth.
right-for a European mess
of pottage in the form of
an entangling alliance called
the League of Nations.
By Turing us into that al
lance, Europe sought to OBJ
tain our aid in enforcing
the terms Of the Versailles
Treaty and to use American
blood and treasure to guar
antee Europe national
boundaries.
But this proposed ex-
change of America s birth
right for Europe's mess Of
pottage was stopped when
our Senators in Congress re-
fused to ratify the Treaty
of Versailles, which included
the covenant Of the League
Of Nations.
By this refusal the United
States reaffirmed the policy
of Washington and the Mon
roe Doctrine as Americas
permanent foreign policy.
BY this reaffirmation we put
the world on notice that
we would not meddle in Eu-
ropean politics and that it
would be wise for Europe
not to meddIe in the poll
tics of the Western World.

The Verdict Rests
With the Senate

This is the traditional for
eign policy which has been
renounced for the United
States, not by its Govern
ment, but by an agent of that
governments Executive
branch. And the Europe
which bestowed upon him
the high-sounding title Of
A m erican ambassador-at
large is the same Europe
which SANDERS our tradi-
tional foreign policy of insu-
lation against the quarrels
and intrigues of European
politics by falsely branding
it as "a policy of isolation. "
In justice to Mr.. Davis it
must be assumed that his re-
nunciation of America S ira
ditional foreign policy from
the days of George Washing
ton until now was made with
the full authority and ap-
proval of his immediate SUI
perior and fellow Tennes-
seean, the Secretary Of State,
Mr.. Hull.
The proposals of Mr.. Davis,
however, under the American
system of government. must
remain mere proposals of
one branch Of the Govern
ment pending final action
upon them by that other
branch Of the Government TO
which the Federal Constltu-
ton entrusts the final con-
troll of our foreign policy
the United States Senate.
Whether the American
people are now willing to
swap the Golden Rule and
the Monroe Doctrine" for
the rule of Europe's League
and the Hull-Davis doctrine
is the all-important question
that must await the verdict
of the representatives Of the
American people n the
United States Senate,

NO POLITICS IN SCIENCE

DOLITICAL appointments should play no
l. part in the conduct of the scientific
bureaus Of the federal government.
When President Roosevelt nominated DR..
Lyman j. Briggs to the dictatorship of tn
national bureau of Standards repeating a
Hoover nomination unconfirmed by the lame
duck senate, he heartened the intellectual
world.
Whether DR.. Briggs is a Republican or a
Democrat is unknown and unasked at the
White House. In fact DR.. Briggs does not
know himself. His job is science, not politics.
In the famous patronage handbook, {"
which, pursuant to congressional request, list
ed the noncivil service jobs in the government
the following were listed as potential pluns:
Surgeon general of the public health service
commissioner and deputy commissioner of
fisheries, commissioner of patents, director of
bureau of mines, director of coast and geo.
detic survey, chief of the weather bureau, di-
rector of geological survey.
Great confidence will be created by Presi-
dent Roosevelt if steps are taken to continue
in office the efficient nonpolitical incumbents
and then insure adequate scientific and intel
lectual qualifications of future bureau heads
by placing them under civil service, just as
is the case with most of the scientific bureau
heads of the department of agriculture.

Il We intend to get to the bottom of this re-
ownership"
This declaration of Circuit Judge Earl Cox,
in the State Savings and Trust case, is the first
statement of hope given thousands of depos-
itors in defunct banks of the city in more than
two years.
Secrecy and apparent inaction which has
marked the receiverShips of the closed institu-
tons has been a blight on the city and has
intensified the depression for many who saw
their savings of years vanish overnight, as
doors of the banks changed shut.
Now they can begin to hope again. If there
is any chance for even small dividends out Of
the wreckage this investigation should reveal
it. If there has been crookedneSs in conduct
of former officers or receivers or their attor-
neys the inquiry should bare it and bring
swift punishment to the offenders.
Justice has Jagged sadly. Three years have
gone by since some of the banks closed. Judge
Cox is showing the way to action. If there is
to be a thorough investigation and a grand
Jury inquiry as intimated it will be up to the
Judge of the criminal court and the proSecu-
tor to give whole-hearted aid to Judge Cox.
If the matter is allowed to languish and
die, it will be blot on justice in Marion
