Human Side of the News = By Edwin c. Hill

The regency and the premier
of Jugoslavia eye each other
suspiciously. King Alexander
was the fourth of his line to
die at the hands of aSSassins.
Eleven-year-old King Peter,
bright, well-mannered lad,
happy in his own affairs a few
weeks ago, steps out innocently
on that "black stage for
tragedies and murders fell"
which, in Shakespeare's line, is
the historic back-drop of child
royalty.
History bodies i'll for child
monarchS. Before and after the
days of the little English princes,
strangled in the Tower, inno-
cent princelings have been
caught in the web of dark and
sinister forces, destroyed or i'm
PEELED into tumult and conSpira"
cieS.
One wonders what fairy tales
they read. What bright illusion
replaced the enchantment
which, for little Mary Jones or
Willie Smith, fills the lives of
the prince or the princess?
Would they all, like Mark
Twain's little prince in that
grand story, 1.-THE Prince and
the Pauper," like to trade
places with little Mary and
Willie?
There was Edward vi of Eng
land, son of Henry VIII, crowned
king at the age Of 9. He
was Smothered in conspiracy
from the day of his coronation.
In his later life he wrote he had
known nothing but fear in his
childhood. He lived through a
brief and troubled reign, ha-
raised with war and bloodshed.
TRAGIC LIVES
So it was with little Louis
XIV of France, crowned at 4,
and Louis XIV, crowned at S. It
was in these years that Canada
was lost to France, India was
abandoned and the national
debt wrecked France. After
me the deluge," said Louis XIV,
and the deluge came.
Mary, Queen of Scots, figure
of epic tragedy, was crowned
before she was a year old. Her
son, James Stuart, was also
crov;ned at one year, and no
good came or ~. Charles XII
of Sweden was Is when he was
made king. He was a vigorous
and gifted ruler, but he plunged
his country into blood.
Napoleon had put away Jo-
sephine and had taken another
wife, so he might have an heir
to his throne. His ecstasy was
boundless when his son was
born. The child was crowned
Napoleon II at birth. Bells
were rung and there were pa
geantS and fireworks all over
Napoleon's great empire. The
child became a sickly. anemic
lad, fading out quietly with
tuberculosis in his youth. And
for Napoleon, too, "the tumult
and the shouting" died.
Late in the Fifteenth Century,
in England, little Prince Ed
ward v and his brother, Rich
ard, were winsome and beau
tiful children. Their uncle,
Richard III, had usurped their
throne. The princes were put
in the Tower. About them
were whispers and soft foot
falls.
Richard had come secretly
to the Tower and talked at
night, in the shadow of a
baStion, to Brackenberg, the
keeper. From Warwick, Rich
ard sent Sir James Tyrrel

through blood to world domin'
ion, but lost to Marc Anthony.
Poor little Lady Jane Grey wrote
of a childhood of gnawing fear
and unhappiness. But the cen
turtles which have followed that
night of shuddering horror in
the old Tower have not been
altogether dark.
OPP April 81 of next year, the
merry and charming little blue
eyed. golden-haired Princess
Elizabeth Of England will be
eight years old. She is the best
beloved child in the world. Her
picture is on the Six-cent New
foundland stamp. Elizabeth
Land in Antarctica is named for
her. The people of England
have made the little princess, in
line for the throne, genuinely
their own and they truly love
her.
Nowhere in history does one
find such a conquest by such a
captivating child. She stands
third in succession to the rule Of
Britain and India, to the crown
of Elizabeth Tudor, that great
hearted queen who smashed the
power of Spain.
There are no furtive whispers,
no hint of "treasons, stratagems
and Spoils" in the sunlit garden
where little Elizabeth plays. She
rides her pony, reads fairy tales
and BLACK Beauty" and Peter
Pam" rompS about the garden,
a mischievous, engaging and
happy child.
Her clothes are simple. Her
pets are her pony and a bull
puppy. She has a few plain
little dolls. Mischievous and
hilarious, She romps with the
old Scotch gardeSer. Hers is
the sensible upbringing in a cul-
tured family and an enlightened
country. Her only jewelry is
Tiny chain Of coral which her
mother wore when she was a
little girl.
SUMNER WORLD
Certainly the rise of civiliza-
ton in these late centuries is
registered here in the House of
Windsor, in the life of this
happy child, when one thinks
of the innocent and hapless
paWnS Of brutal destiny in those
other days.
Those little Belgian royal
children, too, have come into a
SUMMER World-4-year-old Prince
Baudouin Albert Axel Marie

lightened court, providing SIM

likeable lad. He, too, is "bow-
cred in beauty" and lovingly
reared, but less stable and as
Sured are the fundamentals of his
kingdom. There are Stratagems
enough in the Rumanian court,
with powerful and sinister
cabals contending for mastery.
The great Manchu dynasty Of
China passed with 8-year-old
HSuan Ting who had become
ruler at the age of 3. But, on
the whole, even royal children
fare better in this now swiftly
changing world. Certainly there
is a bright augury for the be-
loved little Elizabeth.

BIZ Elsie Robinson

AS mucn a part
Of life
AS thirst or hunger
It's the natural ebb
OF our affections flow.
Such times must come
For all who love,
And when they come
You must know why,
And how
To meet them,
Or your love will die.
YOU CAN'T
LEAVE LOVE TO LUCK.
You must, at times,
Build love,
Though lacking
All delight;
AS blind men
Weave a pattern
In the night,
Counting
Each gentle gesture
Spacing
Word and smile
Cropping
Through darkness
Of both heart and head
AS blind men tumble
With their unseen thread.
Until at last
From out the dull
Gray warp and wool
Of service
There's the shine
Of that sweet wonder
Which you thought
Had passed
And, once again,
You feel
Loves beautiful design.

A scientist has announced
that he has succeeded in ex-
tracing gold from sea water,
filtering IL tons of sea water
to extract a piece of gold the
size of a pinhead.
If it is true that there is
gold in the ocean and it can
be extracted, Washington ought
to act quickly to protect our
interests. Secretary Morgenthau
should earmark the Atlantic
and Pacific Oceans without
further delay. Stern regulatory
measures should be enacted.

Prosperity Figures
They ARE Encouraging

J
Those who 20 around shouting blues about business
ditons in Washington must received rather
shock when they looked the figures compiled by the Federal
Reserve Bank of Richmond department store trade here
in the month of October.
While the gloom boys shouting their oudest the
department of the city INCREASING THEIR
BUSINESS TWENTY EIGHT PER CENT OVER OCTOBER
OF LAST YEAR.
These Federal people aren't inclined to off the
deep end When they make statement such as the above
they base it on definite figures.
And they back up their figures increased trade in octo
Der by showing that during the first months of this year
department store trade INCREASED NEARLY TWENTY
PER CENT OVER THE FIRST TEN MONTHS OF THE
PREVIOUS YEAR.
So October wasn't flash in the PAN simply part
of steady increase in business shown by figures the
longer period
Business is good in Washington and IS GETTING BET
TER
That conclusion is unavoidable the Reserve Boards
figures
And is getting better in places to the report
of the Reserve shows that department store trade in
this entire is improving.
The American people been fooled often about pre-
dctions the of prosperity and have been deceived
often by figures tending to show that prosperity has al
ready returned they look with degree of skep
upon any figures which produced and which show
Improvement in conditions.
We don't that they accept figures which aren't
prosperity
But we do say that IF WE PERSIST IN DECLARING
THAT WE CAN'T COME BACK THEN WE PROBABLY
WON'T COME BACK FOR LONG TIME
Things aren't right and they probably won't be for
while yet
They however getting better and the figures depart
ment store trade show that beyond peradventure of doubt
Let's think about these figures get what pleasure and
what renewed confidence from them We think that
they indicative Of general improvement and glad
to have them
Furthermore, convinced that ocober figures
will show similar possibly greater improvement
the figures for last month.
BY the time October around there little doubt
that the Government employees will have had their full pay
stored. THAT WILL MEAN ADDITIONAL MILLIONS OF
DOLLARS FLOWING INTO THE CHANNEL OF TRADE
IN WASHINGTON AND THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY
To certain extent the improvement local conditions as
shown by the Federal Reserve figures attributable
to the return early this year of per Govern
ment salaries.
By next October in fact considerably before then we will
have obtained restoration of the five per cent and we will
GO FORWARD THEN TO GREATER BUSINESS AND
SOCIAL SUCCESS
so WASHINGTON MIGHT AS WELL STOP TALKING
DEPRESSION AND START REJOICING IN THE UNOUEs
T1ONABLE FACT THAT CONDITIONS ARE GETTING
MUCH BETTER.
