South Africa Drops
''No Armament Policy

JOHANNESBURG, South Africa
1t has been part of South African
policy since the World War that
armaments for a country such as this
are a waste Of time and money be-
cause they would be futile against the
might of larger country. That was
the policy up to this year. In recent
months it has been reversed for no
apparent reason, but with quite spec
tacular results.
The first sign of the new policy was
the order placed in Britain for a
squadron of Hawker Harris, reputedly
the fastest fighting airplanes in the
world. Naturally, observers here have
been asking why South Africa, with
no apparent enemies, and situated
thousands of miles from any consider
able center of population, should in
dulge in such up-to-date fighting ma
terial. Inquiries at Pretoria merely
bring the reply that airplanes have
proved the best means of dealing with
tribal disturbances, but this answer is
only q half-truth inasmuch as an
old airplane is suitable for police work
among natives.
Now Oswald Prov, minister of de-
fense, announces that the government
plans to make Durham the most pow
erful fortified harbor on the east coast
Of Africa.

Students Given Right
To Work i'm Hawaii

HONOLULU, Hawaii.-Under a re-
cent modification of a long standing
federal immigration order numerous
foreign students living in Hawaii will
be benefited. Under the former regu-
lations foreigners coming as students
were not allowed to take employment,
the theory being that they thus i'm
paired their travel rights as students.
The United States Labor Department
has substantially modified the ruling,
but still holds that employment may
not be accepted if it interferes in any
way with the time or ability Of the
students to keep up their scholastic
work.
The ruling now modified has existed
in various forms for years, but only
in September, 1882, was it drastically
enforced. At that time, due to the
unemployment situation on the main
land, immigration officials were or
dered to take steps to enforce the
ruling rigidly. Even in Hawaii, where
unemployment was much less acute,
the orders fell heavily on students who
were doing part-tine work to help
maintain themselves.

JAPANESE PEACE WORKER

Prince Tokugawa, Grandson of Last

Tour of i. S.

must speak English and where Prince
TokugaWa first eXpounded his doctrine
of national harmony in my admir1ng
presence.
His English was excellent at that
big luncheon in the society rooms OF
the Imperial Hotel, because he had
studied in England from his 14th to
his 10Th year, had encircled the globe
during 1910. had fingered long enough
during 1918 in New York as head Of a
Japanese Red Cross commission to
ride in an automobile driven by q
woman of New York City's Red Cross,
and had attended the Washington
Conference on the Limitation of Arma-
ments as Japan's principal delegate.
But though definitely coSmopoi-
tan and proponent of peace at home
and abroad, Prince Tokugawa was un-
deniably an old school Japanese states
man who traced to the fighting Sa-
mural. I met him at other times in
Japan. Americans long resident there
were heartily for him as a straight
shooting patriot, using straight shoot
ing in its slang sense. Iyesato Toku-
gawa was not in sympathy with mill
tarists.
His record on that subject is pretty
clear He clarified it eloQuently while
in New York during his 1910 and 1918
visits. Only a few months after had
met him in 1880 we met at dinner
given to him by the Japan Society in
Pierre's, on Fifth Avenue. To four
hundred men and women, mostly citi-
zens of America, he declared: when
I arrived among you in 1921 to at

ference I found your country flooded
with the widest statements about
Japan and her international inten-

MOTHER victory for arbitration

A MOTHER victory Tor arbltrauon
" in. the Western Hemisphere
~ was recorded last week when
L n the governments of Ecuador
and Peru agreed to carry out
the Ponce-Castro Oyanguren protocol
for the amicable solution of their
long-standing boundary controversy.
Nearly 10 years ago, In June, 1924, the
Ecuadorean minister Of foreign af-
fairs and the Peruvian Minister to
Quito signed a protocol by which they
pledged their respective governments
to send special delegations to Wash
1ngton to discuss their boundary
question and, in case Of disagreement,
10 determine a zone 10 be submitted
to the arbitral decision of the Presi-
dent of the United States
A few days ago the diplomatic rep
resentatives Of Peru and Ecuador In
Washington, Don Manuel de Freyre y
Santander and Don Colon Eloy Alfaro,
requested of President Roosevelt that
the Government Of the United States
give its consent to the sending of the
delegations specified in the 1924 pro-
tocol. President Roosevelt immediate
ly gave such consent and in a public
statement praised the two South
American republics for their determi-
nation to settle their territorial feud
'tin accordance with the most en-
lghtened principles Of international
practice"
Within a short time, therefore, the
delegates of Peru and Ecuador will
meet in Washington and in the event
"a very likely event-of their being
unable to fix a definitive line, they
will take recourse to arbitration. They
will determine by common consent
those zones the sovereignty over
which is reciprocally recognized as
well as zone to be submitted to the
arbitral decision of the President of
the United States"

Everyday Psychology
BY DR.. JESSE ". SPROWLS.
Hands Tell Character.

Some time ago I ran across a popu-
lar book which argued that one might
read character my merely observing
hands Ones hands are supposed to
be the keys to personality! 1t may be
that the book Is right. But one thing
is certain. We seem to pay little or
no attention to hands, fingers or thumbs
in our daily reading of personality.
Experimental scientists have photo
graphed hands without the subjects
knowing anything about the procedure.
The subjects have been asked to identify
the photographs. The strange thing
about such experiments is that people
are not usually able to identify the
hands Of their friends. And in a sur
priSingly large number of cases, one Is
not able to recognize ones own hands
that is. the photograph of them.
If the hands told anything about
character or personality, one might sup
pose that common sense would have
found the truth long before now. The
truth seems to be that the hands tell
us nothing-except, perhaps. some in
formation Of more or less passing sig
niflcance.
Some of these days We will know
enough about characterology to give up
altogether the notion that ones per-
sonality is written in bodily formations
At any rate. the scientists are investl-
eating all these problems by accurate
objective methods. Their findings so
far are illuminating, at times amusing.

Celery may be grown In almost every

remotely suggesting a neglige would
not do at all. A simple hostess dress,
on the other hand, would be quite
proper. If you wear an evening dress.
the men should wear white waistcoats

ment. we don't seem to have all the
courage about breaking the news that

home. Please tell us what to do next?'
Answer-Tell your parents and his
parents, and then have your parents

both families. just as the man and

Stump That Came to Life.
Not always are the things you see
Exactly what they seem TO be.
-Timmy the Flying Squirrel.

T YAIRY the Woodpecker was angry
as he chased Timmy the Fly
ing Squirrel. ~ Yes: s,.ir Sir. thso;,ss he was
He was SO angry that he had
no thought for anything but catching
Timmy and Furnishing him for daring
to use that new home he, Hairy, had
worked so hard to make for his own
use. You know. people who fly into a
rage are quite likely to fly into trouble
also, and the wonder Is that Hairy
didn't do this very thing. That he
didn't was partly his good fortune and
partly because Timmy beat him to 1t.
That Is to say. Timmy, being ahead,
know Timmy, despite his name OF Fly
ing Squirrel, really doesn't fly any more
than you or do.
Timmy was having a good time. He
was teasing Hairy the Woodpecker.
He played dodge around the trunks OF
trees He would hide until Hairy was
ready to give up and then show him
self tantalizingly near. He would leap
out right over Hairys head and glide
down to the foot Of another tree in the
most provoking way. Yes, Timmy was
having good time.
But 1t is Just as dangerous to be
having too good time to be watchful
as it is to be too angry to be watchful
Timmy found this out. He was near
the top OF tree preparing for one OF
his long, beautiful glides. Just below
him. and almost within striking dis
tance, was Hairy. Timmy waited until
Hairy needed but hitch or two more
to be near enough to strike. Then
Timmy launched out into the air,
spread himself fiat and sailed swiftly
downward in a long glide.
Now the tree he was heading for was
across a little opening, and in the mid
die of it was q snow-covered stump.
Timmy had sailed across that little
opening many times, and always over
that stump. It was sort Of a halfway
mark. This time as he prepared to
Jump he glanced down at the. stump.
There it was. white and still. 1t was a
careless glance Tmmy gave. Had he
not been so occupied with the teasing
of Hairy the Woodpecker he might have
noticed that there was something un-
familiar about that stump. As 1t was
he was almost to 1t before he noticed
anything unusual about 1t.
Goodness" thought he. That stump
seems to have grown. I've made this
Jump many times. but don't remember
ever passing as near the top as I will
this time"
Meanwhile. Hairy the WoDdpecker
had launched himself into the air In
hot pursuit. Timmy had just sailed
over that white stump. and Hairy was
half way to 1t when the upper half
abruptly came to life. Yes. sir, that is
Just what happened. Hairy checked
himself in midair, turned and, with q
cry Of fright, headed for the nearest
tree
Whitley the Snowy OWL" he gasped.
It was. indeed He had been sitting
motionless and upright on that stump.
as is the way Of Owls. In his white coat
he had seemed to the careless glance
