CONSTRUCTING RECOVERY.

Labor troubles of more less serious nature have been common after every depression unerrrngy marking the turn from the bottom to higher levels of manufacturing and trade Where they represent ed the natural desire of labor squeezed and generally uncomplainngly during the depression to participate in earnings, most employers, and all sensioie ones are willing to deal fairly with their help
 In these days the Nation is visited by series of labor troubles which do not seem to be so much recognition of some national labor organization. So numerous have these become that they threatened to sweep reviving business back into the cyclone cellar which it has occupied since 1929. is not so much an effort to establish the fact o collective bargaining which is written into the National 1n- dustrial Recovery Act, but to enforce some special agency of collective bargaining. Thus the big obstacle to the settlement of the Pacific Coast longsnoremens strike has not been hours of work and wages but the insistence that the Inter national Longshoremens Association be recognized as the hiring authority instead of the employers through local unions.
 The temper o1 the country is such that, after years of darkness and disaster Il great manufacturer group of business men were even suspected of trying to retard recover there would be cries of "treas son." and the populace would de- mand their blood. Yet today through strikes and threats of strikes labor is obstructng recovery O1
 
 workingmans right to pay to be governed by some in New York, Chicago, or San Francisco-any- where in fact long the authority is ignorant of the conditions under which the working man works
 That is not good selfish horse Strikes and rlmors of strikes dssipating the new vigor ol business Men who have not had jobs for four years striking almost soon as they are put back to work In doing they are helping the effort that selfish capitalists putting forth te drag down the deal under which labor is giver more recognition than it ever had before. If they persist it is not impossible they will destroy the very system which gives organized labor the greatest opportunity in it's whole history.
 The strike today is of the nations mos serious problems. AS MT. Brisbane said recently 'If following more than four years without work men decide that they wont work or stay on thu job when they have it, or let other men take 1t restoration of prosperity will be difficult"

HEART IS GUIDE TO CAREER.

Every year several thousand college students in the United States who go out for athletic teams in their particular institutions rejected because of weak heart which probably will not stand the strain of athletic competition. New reports from the recent meeting of the Philadelphia Heart Association indicate that heart examinations might be applied equally well to young people about to start out on career in life.
 There is no reason why, in the very near future, physicians will not be able to suggest the best career for individual by examination of his heart" declared Dr. William S. Stroud professor of cardiology in the Graduate School of Medicine, University of Pennsylvania. People who am- bilious to enter occupations involving physical effort but whose hearts would not carry them through should be diverted to other professions Also it should be quite possible to tell what young are good prospective mothers the basis of their hearts fitness for possible strains" he said.
 Dr. Stroud is simply attacking the old problem of eliminating the square peg" people from the round hole job in new way He would like to see, as one example, mining engineers equipped physically for their job, instead of going ahead simply the basis of brains.

Japan, Ruler of the Pacific Waves.
(New York Herald Tribune.)

world hardened to seeing Japan plunge ahead unrestrained on course of militarism and expan- sion is but little surprised to read that the Japanese Minister of the Navy has made speech demanding for Japan navy second to nine. This implies, of course, the scrapping of the treaties signed at Washington and London for the limitation of naval armaments. That in turn. the abrogation of the other treaties designed to perServe the peace in the Pacific
 The tragedy in such attitude is twofold. It lies in the blow at world cooperation for peace which this gesture involves and it exists in the futlity of Japan's demands unless she is bent on extending her political sway over China, the Philip pines and ultimately India. This latter policy while undoubtedly dreamed of by a small group of militaristic mperaliss cannot yet be taken serious ly by thoughtful observers
 Under the circumstances, the demand for a navy equal to that of the United States and Britain is untenable. Neither the American nor the British fleet could expect to operate successfully in the Westen Pacific under the existing dispositions If therefore Japans fleet is to be increased by 40 per cent with respect to Britain and the United States Japan will not only be able to dominate Eastern Asia but to extend her dominions to Australia or India. In view of the temper of her leaders during the last few years, peace-ovng person can view without distress such enlargement of the Japan csc fleet.
 naval understanding between the United Sttates and the British Commonwealth of Nations becomes the obvious alternative. If Japan persists in her couse of aggressive militarism she may force some sort of an agreement between the two other major Pacific powers, at least in far the preserva- tion of peace in the Pacific is concerned Neither Britain nor the United States is likely to favor abandoning the thesis of limitation of naval arma- ments Both opposed to a large increase in
 Japan's ration. The implication is obvious.
