Failure of MOntevideO Farley
, To Advance Peace Uniustified

the first time, offered in . oontractual
form.
Article S, a logical corollary Of the
preceding ones, pledges the sigma
tory parties to use all the means at
their disposal to enforce the pro-
visions of the code and insure the
maintenance of peace in the Anert-
can Continent. In case Of q VIOLA
ton, they agree to adopt a common
SOLITARY attitude and exercise the
political, juridical and economic
sanctions authorized by international
law, as well as to direct the influence
of public opinion against the Offend
ing state. In no case, however, shall
they resort to armed Intervention,
except as provided in other treaties
to which they may be parties.
Complete Machinery Basis.
These general principles being thus
set forth and regulated, the second
section of the Mexican peace code
outlines the bases for complete ma
chinery to preserve international peace
In the Western Hemisphere. Article
establishes the obligation of the
parties to submit all their differences
to the Cancellation Commission, the
arbitration system of the Inter-Amer-
lean Court of Justice described fur
ther on.
Articles 7 to II eliminate the posi-
bilities of getting around this obliga-
tion-something which most advocates
OF organized peace overlooked in the
past-by providing how the Inter-
American Court will pass upon its own
competence; how, if a controversy is
not susceptible Of juridical decision,
it should be submitted to the Perma-
nent Cancellation Commission; how,
If this is not done, the commission
will automatically be entitled to act;
how the parties may only appeal to
the court or to arbitration against
the commissions decision; how, upon
the reluctance of one or more of the
parties to abide by the judgment of
the court, the sanctions prescribed in
Article shall be applied; how the
countries in dispute must prevent
armed clashes while the process of
conciliation and juridical adjustment
is In progress, and SO on.
Sections III, w and v of the Mexi-
can peace code are devoted to describe
in detail the organization. scope and
attributes of the three institutions
mentioned above-the Permanent Con-
ciliation Commission, the general sys-
tenn of arbitration and the Inter-
American Court of International JUS
tice. The 80 articles which consti-
tute this part of the plan combine
salient features of the Gondra con-
vention, the Bryan treaties, the Wash
ington conciliation and arbitration
treaties of 1928, the League Covenant,
the Kellogg pact, the Scott draft for
a continental tribunal, etc. Their dis
cussion deserves, however, separate
article.

DEWEY ADVOCATES
STUDY OF PRESENT
Philosopher Declares Courses
Should Not Be Oriented
Toward Past.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
CLEVELAND, February 24-The
philosopher, John Dewey, looks upon
"the present chaos" as the time
for overhauling curricula from the
fifth grade through the high school.
The Columbia professor gave the
American Association of Teachers
Colleges, one of the subgroups of
the National Education Association
meeting here, this terse definition
last night:
Education in a changing social
order means fundamentally educa-
ton that introduces students to the
realities of the present order-or
disorder, order being a courteous
name for the present chaos"
He declared: The whole course
of study should be oriented toward
the world of the present, not toward
the past, and its great aim should
be to make these young people go out
Of school conscious of the forces that
are changing the conditions of life
for everybody"

P. w. A. ALLOTS S2O3,215
FOR CROP RESEARCH
Continued Experimental 81 ldy of
Spray Residue Provided
by Fund.

An allotment of S2O3,215 to the
Department of Agriculture to con-
tinue experimental studies of spray
residue on edible crops, was an
nounced by Secretary Ickes, public
works administrator
Agriculture Department officials
pointed out tc the P w. A. that in
sect attacks bring huge annual losses
to growers and that the use of poi
sonous sprays to destroy pests often
leaves an undesirable residue.
The allotment made today will be
used in laboratory experiments and
field studies for the purpose of de-
veloping non-poisonous sprays that
will be both safe and effective.
Administrator Ickes also announced
an allotment of 100000 to the Inte-
rior Department to enforce oil regu-
lations under the N r. A and a sec
ond 100000 to the Petroleum Ad-
ministrative Board for expenses.

Those Fifty-Cent Dollars

money would reveal the defects in
this theory, and cursory glance at
the experience Of France, Sweden,
in practice it does not work that way
The devaluation law is predicated on
the theory that a fictitious valuation
Of gold coin will depress the purchas-
ing power of paper money, even though
by the act itself gold is deprived of
its power to influence credit and pa
per money issues.
The intimate fact is that this is
rich and powerful country, slowly
but surely recovering from depression.
Devaluation may not contribute to
this recovery process, but it cannot
greatly retard it. A rising price level
derived from returning confidence
and reviving industry will adjust it
self to devaluation.
Humorous Developments.
Recent developments have had their
humorous aspects. The House COM
mittee's conference with Rev. Cough
lin was the high point in that body's
deliberations. He did not repeat his
earlier proposal to issue $25,000,0 ,000,-
900 in paper money. a suggestion that
had merit in that if nation wishes
to commit economic suicide a quick
death is to be preferred. Another fea-
ture was the Senates distress when
Senator Borah insisted, in the midst
of assurances on all sides of the anti
imitation character of the bill, on
quoting Prof. j. H. Rogers official
statement that the law might bring
about a huge imitation. A Senator's
explanation that Prof. Rogers had
not had time to revise his testimony
lent final touch.
But the last word goes to Prof
Irving Fisher, whose advocacy of a
compensated dollar" and a large-scale
relation" has done so much to en-
courage that strange organization,
the Committee for the Nation, and
to promote the cause of currency
tinkering. At the meeting of the econ
omists in Philadelphia at Christmas
time he said: I'VE should be farther
on the road toward recovery today
had there been no election last year"
