cheaper than revolution. England was
near enough to the French revolution
to realize that.
President Knubel of the United Luth-
eran Church of America worries about
the future of religion. Anti-religious
forces, he says, are growing constantly
in this and other countries; hundreds
of millions of people are spiritually
blind" Rev. DR.. Knubel asks, "How
do you know that in two years from
now you might not be asked to die for
your faith?"
Let US hope it will not be as bad
as that. while wondering respectfully
how many would be willing to die. or,
like the ancient martyrs, court death
for the sake of martyrdom.
There are various ways of making
living in America, that finds it so
difficult to conquer lawlessness. One
way is to smuggle in Chinese, inflicting
fearful hardships upon the unfortunate
immigrant Chinese and charging them
from $1,000 to $500 for bringing them
here. Smuggling Chinese is connected
with the opium traffic. While smuggling
in Chinese you can also smuggle with
each one a considerable amount Of
opium.
Federal agents looking for opium
found eighteen frightened Chinese in
an isolated house in New Jersey,
guarded by a powerful negro; from
Trinidad and FIVE police dogs that
would have mangled the unfortunate
creatures had they tried to escape.
Friends expected to bring the fee for
smuggling them in failed to appear,
hence their detention.
Doctor Lahy of the New England
hospital says the much discussed ex-
pertinent of transplanting in men the
glands of monkeys is failure. How
ever, partial transplanting Of the
parathyroid gland, from one human
being to another, has proved success
full, opening up great possibilities.
Failure of monkey gland trans
plantation is not bad news. There is
enough of the monkey in man up to
sixty years of age 20 make any monkey
gland transplanting at that age seem
unnecessary. Somebody said, long
ago, that man is one-third man, one
third monkey, one-third hog. That is
a little severe, but the monkey part
is sufficiently accurate.
Japan is busy terrifying South Sea
islands that she holds under mandate
of the League of Nations, and COM
plant is made aimlessly.
Nothing to surprise anybody in that
fertilization news. Japan is an intelli-
gent country.
1t takes a country with statesman
ship in the dodo class, like ourselves,
to possess Guam and fail to fortify
the place because polite Britishers,
acting as mouthpiece for Japan, re-
quested us not to do so.
The achievement of the admirable
flyers, Sir Charles Kingsford- Smith
and his aid, Capt. P. G. Taylor, proves
that the United States knows how to
build airplanes. The plane that came
across the Pacific from Honolulu,
2,4OS miles, In fifteen hours, beating
by ten hours the best record, is an
American Lockhead plane built at
Glendale, Calf, and the engine was
built by the American Pratt & Whit
ney Aircraft company.
If the United States should ever get
really interested in building the worlds
greatest air fleet, as 1t will do, or bit
terly regret 1t, the material is at hand.

IN A cablegram to the League Of Ma
= tons, Chancellor Riart of Paraguay
said his government could not accept q
truce in the Chaco war in return for
international guarantees, as was pro-
posed by the league. Riart insisted
that an end to hostilities should come
before negotiations are undertaken to
solve the war and to arrange definite
terms for peace. However, Paraguay
accepted the principle that the conflict
proper should be settled by concili-
alton.
Bolivia, for its part, declared to the
league that Paraguay was waging the
war in order to obtain Bolivian Oil
deposits.
The Chaco consultative committee Of
the league asked the secretary gen.
eral to request the United States and
Brazil to collaborate in ending the war.

to have ideas far beyond the New Deal

that Mr.. Roosevelt is faced with a
genuine threat from these personages.
In other words, 1t appears to be within
the realm Of possibility that he will
have to swerve somewhat to the right
to insure victory for the policies in
which he believes. Legislation always
is by compromise. If the President

radical side he may be forced to sup

The little roy Buldog mas run down!
 Mickey Walker is finished after IT long years in the ring, and this is not surprising, but that he should have been finished by Paul Pirrone is strange indeed!
 Go back to the days when Pir- rone was young amateur boxer with scant thought of making a career of. professional fighting. His idol was Mickey Walker. Walker 5 fighting poses decorated the walls of his room. He followed the New Jersey Irishman's career through the, newspapers. When Mickey hap pened to be training in Cleveland Paul was on hand to watch him work. He even tried to copy Walk CTS fighting pose and style.
 Success in the amateur ranks paved the way for Pirrone's debut into the professional ranks. His first bout was the semi-final. to the main bout between Tony Marul-o and his hero-Mickey Walker.
 Pirrone Steps Up
 So anxious was Paul to see his favorite in action, that after his own bout, he merely tossed bath robe over his shoulders and remain ed at the ringside to watch the battle. It was one of the big thrills of his young life to see his idol pound out a decision over the rug ged Marullo.
 That moment never brought the thought that he would one day face Walker in the ring and one day stretch Walker on the floor for the count.
 In putting an end to Walkers comeback effort, Pirrone estab- lished himself as one of the lead ing contenders for the middle weight title.
 The Cleveland fighter has been staging quite successful come back on his own account. Little more than a year ago he offered no promise of future greatness. On the contrary, having been knocked out in seven consecutive battles, he appeared to be finished at the age of 21-just when he should have been starting on the upward trail.
 There was nothing for him to do but quit the game after a string of defeats such as that. And quit he did! For 10 months he rested without even as much as the sight Of boxing glove. Then the urge to box a bit for the exer- else got the better of him and the first thing he knew he was back in harness again. In a short time he was ready to take another fling at the game
 To start with he was matched with one Carl Montabamo, a rug ged fellow from Pittsburgh. It took Paul only three rounds to polish him off.
 That new start gave him the momentum which carried him to match with his idol-and suc- cess!

10 FIRE ALARMS
 EVENINGS RECORD
Halloween 'Revelers Re- spOnsible For Five False
 CallS-POliCe Relieved

Policemen and firemen breathed a sigh of relief today with the knowledge that it would be full yea before another Halloween. Two platoons and an augmented motor patrol force were kept con- stantly on their toes last night as the annual occasion of public fun making and gayety was observed all over the city.
 All in all, the celebration was more orderly than those of other years. No arrests had to be made of over-zealous funmakers, but there was considerable good-na- tured horseplay, on which police men kept matchful eyes.
 Most serious of the law viola tions last night were the recording of five false alarms, which, with five genuine alarms, kept f1remen busy from early evening till late mast night. Other aspects which the Halloween celebration took were the marking up with chalk of homes and cars, moving traffic signs, stoning of one or two houses. letting air from auto tires. and the moving of fences from pri- vate property.
 An abandoned dump wagon ap- parently stolen, was found on East Main street this morning, and po- lice had it lowed to the city yards to await claim by the owner. The false alarms were rung in from boxes at Hill and Burnside streets, Walnut and Division. Johnson and Waterville, Roseland avenue and Columbia Boulevard, and Bank street at Town Plot schools. The genuine alarms were all for minor brush fires.
