TN the summertime many person breaks forth
L with crop of freckes. These yelowish or
brownish spots appear chiefly on the exposed sur
faces such as the face, neck, forearm, and hands,
but with the advent of modern bathing suits they
may also appear on legs, back and chest
The spots are due to depoSiting of pigment from
the blood in the skin. Some persons are much more
likely to nave freckles than are others, apparently
because they have special senSitivity to sunlight.
In many cases the freckles last throughout life.
but in others they and go with the seasons
fading with the onset of winter and reappearing
again with the sunlight in the spring.
AS an indication of the fact that freckling repre-
sents special type of senSitivity it is well known
that some persons exposed to the sun will invariably
develop freckles whereas others will merely form
deep coat OF tan
TT as possible for persons working in the theater
1 and these to whom frecklng is an incumbrance,
o nave freckles removed by preparations which peel
&c skin 1t possible also to the freckles with
various creams and ointments.
Most persons, however, will do well simply to let
them alone and to avoid direct sunlight II the an
noyance is too great.
The quacks in the beauty field who promise that
they freckleS successfully usually do this
by applying caustic preparations containing mer-
curry, which blister the skin and cause 1t to peel
away.
Such methods are always dangerous because of
the possibility of infection and second because new
freckles will come when skin grows
COMBINES yellow spots occur that resemble
- freckles but which represent entirely differ
end condition that is scientifically called chloasa.
The common name for these is liver spots.
These spots usually associated with conditions
affecting the glands, such the adrena glands and
the glands, but may be due to almost any type
Of disease which disorders the bodys general func-
ton.
Hence, the treatment involves careful study of
the condition of the body as whole, with a correc-
ton of any errors of diet and personal hygiene that
can be determined.

ENGLAND Warned by Dominion, Against Alliance With Japan

use. If a nation can not use its
land, it must let others come that
can.
Great Britain's foreign policy,
stripped of all consideration for
the dominions, is on a different
basis. Afraid of Japan-for Brit
ain is in no position to fight a
major power in the Far EaSt-she
would like to come to an under
standing with that country.
But that is far from easy. ia
pan would require a very hand
some quid pro quo, and Britain
has little to offer which Japan
would consider worth while except
a pledge to aid her in the event
of war.
ViScount Rothermere, it is true,
has an answer. He uggests--even
demands-that Britain give China
to Nippon.
THE price of British security in
Il the Orient, therefore, would
be Britain's help in holding China
down, and the rest of the world
off, while China was being swal-
lowed and digested by Nippon.
But for the dominions and
opinion in Britain's Far Eastern
Grown Colonies, it is said, the
Rothermere suggestion might get
somewhere. But this is a big
but"
Australasia and western Canada
at least would want to make GER
tain what would happen after
Japan, by devouring China, had
grown into an uncomfortable
giant.
And that, manifestly, is impos-
sible. Accordingly, dominion SEN
timent is opposed to Britain lend
ing her help to create a Franken-
stein which, in the end, might
turn and devour them all.

Today's Science
by DAVID DIETZ

THE weather as a subject of conversation is very
Il old AS a subject of scientific study it is much
younger. Scientists still have much to learn about
the weather.
The average mans interest in weather increases
with the approach of the vacation season. AS out
ings tours hikes and boat rides are planned the
question of the weather assumes great Importance.
There number of weather signs, not always
infalble but usually trustworthy, which the
age person can learn to recognize. The owner of
inexpensive barometer can learn to predict the
weather with reasonable degree of accuracy In
addition the study of the weather is in itself
pleasant and agreeable hobby. This is particularly
true of the study of clouds.
Clouds are neverceaSing source of beauty and
the person who has failed to learn to observe the
clouds has cheated himself of of natures richest
offerings. No two days are alike to the person who
has formed the habit of studying the clouds
1t is an easy matter to learn about the different
types of clouds and the information which they
vey about the weather.
NTHILE persons in general talk great deal
w about the weather it is usually only in the
time of extreme condition, like last years
drouth. that they realize how great role the
weather plays in life.
The reading public is familiar with the great
damage which storm can do. The Galveston bur-
ricane of Sept 8. 1900 particularly disastrous
The toll Of death reached 5000, while the damage
estimated at $30y000,000.
Weather has played an important role in shaping
the of history
A change in weather cost Great Britain its mill
tary CHIEF in the early days of the World Lord
Kitchener field marshal of the British forces had
hurried north in answer to an urgent appeal from
the car of Russia to visit what then ST. Peters,
burg to discuss means of obtaining closer co-opera
tion between the Russian and British forces
At the time, heavy northeast gale was blowing.
The naval officers of the opinion that the ship
would have easier time if it left Scapa Flow by
the west entrance The officers thought the ship
would be sheltered from the northeast winds and
high seas
DUT even at that time the storm center was shift
- ing Perhaps the British weather office could
have given this information it had been consulted
At any rate, the Hampshire started at D. m.
The northeast winds shifted to northwest winds of
even greater velocity. At TAO p m, the Hampshire
struck submerged mine which had been put in
place day earlier. 1t impossible to send help
because of the high seas and the terrific wind.
Only twelve of the ships company survived the
disaster and were picked up later Kitchener they
said was last seen standing beside the captain of
the doomed vessel.

The first is the statement is
sued by Radio Commissioner La
fount about year ago, in which
he warned the stations that their
licenses might not be renewed if
they allowed 1.-The greed or lack of
patriotism on the part of few
INSCRIPTIONS advertisers" to pro-
duce broadcastS which the COM
mission did not regard as in the
public interest.
This threat, which was uttered
in the early days of the blue
eagle campaign, was tantamount
to the suppression of criticism of
the NRA. 1t was scandalous and.
on the part of an official ap-
pointed to guard the rights of the
people, it can not be condoned by
saying that it was an example of
overZealouSneSS in time of
hysterical excitement.
The second point is, however.
much worse. 1t appears that the
secretary of the federal radio
commission is Herbert L. Pettey.
1t appears also that Mr.. Pettey
was in charge of radio for the
Democrats during the 1882 cam
paign, and that, by express au-
thorization of Postmaster Cen
eral Farley, he is still in charge of
radio time for the Democrats.
Thus, Mr.. Pettey has a dual posi-
ton.
He is secretary of the commits
sion that rules the radio. And he
represents the Democratic nation
al committee in radio affairs. If
Mr.. Farley can not see the gross
improperly off this arrangement
the President should see it, and
should remove Mr.. Pettey at once.
That is the least that can be
done to assure the country that
the government power over radio
is not being exploited for partisan
ends.
THE removal of Mr.. Pettey
Il would be pledge of good
faith, but it will not solve the
difficult problem of radio control.
AS the Herald Tribune articles
pointed out, whether it wants to
or not, radio cottons to the adj
ministration, no matter what par

The British have been arguing
that the money they borrowed
during the war was paid in the
form of munitions and food, that
they can pay back only in similar

are the rumors that Harry Wood

successes or failures of the New

produced a first-class real estate
boom in Washington. Hotels
are constantly crowded with bust
