quent. No autoist ever lessons speed
or stops at the pedestrians two cross
walks. Maj. Ernest w. Brown of the
District police told the director of traffic,
Van Duzer, personally, as late as just
before September 9, 1885, that "stop-go'
traffic lights are absolutely necessary at
this intersection. Why are they not in
stalled? Two sets of "Stop-go' lights
have been installed since September 9,
1885, at intersections on M street north

cording to his own statement Mr.. Van
Duzer has personally driven his auto

absolute necessity of "stop-go" traffic
lights to safeguard pedestrians at Mount
Pleasant and Irving streets northwest.

Absurdity of Taking
Straw Votes on War

To the Editor of The Star:
The latest philanthropic or political
fad seems to be the taking of straw votes
to find out which way the wind of popu-
lar sentiment on war blows. The returns
show that most people don't want war.
We do not know who first made this stu
pendouS discovery.
Unfortunately few of us already sus-
pected that such was the case If any
one had asked our opinion we would have
said that the number of wishes for peace
outnumbered those against. We would
have added that we did not believe that
the average intelligent person wants
war. Knowing that fact We were and
still are unimpreSsed.
1t would have been equally brilliant for
the straw vote faddistS to have taken
count how many people want to avoid
sickness, earthquakes and law suits.
What we want to know is not whether
we like war, but why we have it. Ex-
perience has shown that wishing to stay
out is not enough. But while we're on
the subject we wish some of the so-called
leaders we have today would tell us what
causes war.
Then maybe we could do something
about it. j. H. BOYER.

Protests the Din of the
Pile Drivers and Riveters

To the Editor of The Star:
It is a satisfaction to see all the agi-
tation for .noiselesSneSs now in vogue in
this city. Much stress is being laid upon
the nuisance of the obnoxious footing
of auto horns. upon the ear-shattering
reverberations of the street cars and
upon the savage blare and tra-rah Of the
ubiquitous radio. Yet, what is all their
din compared to the erve-destroying
noise of the pile driver and the steam
riveter, or the ferocious humping and
kissing Of the excavator! Why, it's like
the piping of a mouse being drowned
out by the roar of a lion.
1t allows OF no argument that new
buildings must be built and that TO that
end excavation is necessary, piles must
be driven and steel girders riveted to-
gether. / am patriotic enough to rejoice
in the Governments providing work for
the many who SO sorely need it. and to
that extent I am willing to suffer; but I
must proclaim myself martyr when it
comes to enduring the carrying on OF
these robust activities for IA hours out
of every "a.
Each morning at about $50 there is
penetrating snoring and swishing noise
as preliminary to a tremendous thun-
derclap that hammers me fully awake
at 6 o'clock. They're off-the pile drivers,
I mean. Every evening, upon my weary
return home, am greeted by their anvil
chorus that trips along merrily until 7
o'clock and often later. 1t is now about
10 o'clock pm, and I can still hear the
angry wheeling, churning and throbbing
OF some savage beast OF machine.
I wrote the chief of police. begging
him to do something to subdue this
racket, or regulate it, after I had heard
some talks on the radio about all that
was being done to make Washington a
quiet paradise. One is SO helpless against
this sort of calamity What is one to do?
Either get along without sufficient sleep
or pack up and move elsewhere. But
with housing conditions being what they
are in the Capital City, the latter is very
difficult. The chief of police wrote me
most courteous and prompt reply, in
forming me that the matter was being
referred to the proper authorities. He
also sent a stalWart lieutenant to call
upon me with soothing explanations.
They, of course, explained nothing except
that the police was powerless to do
anything.
Now, may ask, what Is this Noise
Abatement Campaign for, if the very
worst, the most abominable of all the
disturbing encroachments upon the tired
workers peace and quiet cannot be
curbed, or at least cut down to rea-
sonable minimum each day? How is it
that no one has come forward so far
to denounce this most viciou: Of all the
noises in noisy Washington? So ri.st 1t
may be dealt with properly? 1t cannot
be fear of the authorities in this freest
of all lands! ADELE NEVILLE.

THIS AND THAT
BY CHARLES E. TRACEWELL.

For the third time in 10 years we
have failed to complete the reading of
Jane Austen's Sense and Sensibility."
This time we got to page 224, with
about 100'more pages to go. At about
this point, we recalled, the fortunes of
the sensible Eleanor and the nonsensical
Marianne always get too much for us.
1t would be easy enough, of course, to
start each time where the story was left
off several years before. That scheme
at least would have the merit of finish
ing the story.
Such procedure would not be playing
fair with the author. We solemnly begin
all over again, once ever so often, and
as solemnly quit at about the same point.
This is the same as saying that James
second string novel is a very dull book,
and it is, but all Jane Austen fans"
keep it on their shelves just the same,
because she wrote it.
The nice thing about her books is that
one can have them all and know them
all. 1t is not always So Many of the
great English novelists wrote so much
that it is impossible to really know the
stories. Characters and plots become
mixed up in the mind.
Not SO with Jane Austen. A few novels,
each one easily remembered. Her char
acters are distinct. Compared with the
men and women of Dickens, they are
just handful and neatly come to mind.
1t is an interesting study to compare
her first and second novels.
The first written, Pride and Preju-
dice" remains her most popular.
1t was not published until 1873, two
years after Sense and Sensibility,"
which was her second written.
Thus her first is by some persons
considered her best, her second her worst
Good and bad-Why is each treasured?
Not only because they have the pc
culiar flavor of her individual mind,
at once witty and sarcastic in pleasant
way, but more because each is the un-
adorned story of few human beings
The elaborated novel may be art but
often it is difficult reading, say what
one will. At times the reading soul
pines for the simple story of just few
characters.
Pride and Prejudice" with its single
track development of the love story of
EllLdUcIIl DcIlIIcI anu - hICN, has Deen
the favorite of the majority of novel
readers for precisely this singleness.
The more diversified Emma" and
Mansfield Park" generally are the IA
voriteS Of those who believe that they
are students of the English novel.
These are the production of Miss
Austens later years, when she had be-
come a finished novelist
Yet her first one, Pride and Preju-
dice" is pretty finished too. So figure
it out any way you please.
The certain thing is that her second
written, though first printed, is her
dulleSt.
No doubt it was partly due to her pre-
conceived idea of permitting two women
to represent two types, one the sensible
girl, and the other the "sensibility." or
emotional type. The use of sensibility'
in the sense of emotions has long gone
out. We no longer speak of persons
sensibility, meaning emotionalism.
If Miss Austen were writing today she
would phrase her title, if she intended
to work it out in the same way, as Miss

Another Dictator.

While Europe writhes in turmoil over
the Ethiopian conflict and its
attendant international complications,
another dictatorship has been eStao-
lished. Vienna is its scene. There, after
q bloodleSs coup, accomplished SO swiftly
that the populace was completely un-
aware it had happened, Prince Ernest
Ruediger Won Starhemberg, vice chan
cellor in the Schuschnigg government,
seized power as the result OF a CABINET
"purge" He is now the undisputed ruler
of Austria. Chancellor Schuschnigg is
nominally still at the helm, but real au-
thoritv is vested in Won Starhemberg. He
takes his place alongside Mussolini, Hit
Ter. Stain, Kemal and the other Old
World autocrats, major and minor, who
WELD supreme control within their re-
spective realms.
The Vennese upheaval wipes out the
last vestige of the regime bequeathed by
the martyred Dollfuss. The purge
claimed as its chief victim MAJ Emil
FEY, minister of the interior, who had
been carrying on in the DollfuSs tradl-
ton ever since the late chancellor was
assassinated by Nazis in July, 1884. Feys
status was bolstered chiefly by the
Vienna Heimwehr military organization,
which acknowledged him as leader 1t
was always looked upon as an upstart
rival by the far more powerful national
Heimwehr controlled by Won Starhem-
berg and numbering roundly 100000 men.
AS vice chancellor in the reorganized
government, the militant young soldier
prince brings under his personal dlrec-
ton the entire Heimwehr force of the
nation, some $4,000 Catholic Storm
Troops and $4,000 soldiers of the Frei-
heitsbund. Won Starhemberg probably
has at his command force not far be-
low 100000 men. That it is destined to
become another dictators private army
is manifest from the princes maiden
order, proclaiming in imperious tone
that he alone is to be regarded as the
arbiter of Austria's military deStinies
The autocrat on the Danube is
Fascist and an intimate personal and
political friend of Mussolini. Won Star
hemberg's accession means that 1talo-
Austrian relations will be cemented,
especially against the peril of German
Nazi aggression. 1t BODIES no good for
Hitier's anschluss (annexation) dreams.
The Viennese government has just be-
tokened its sympathy with II Duce's cause
by refusing to join unreservedly in
League sanctions against Italy.
Scion of one of Austrias oldest noble
houses, Prince Won Starhemberg's natural
inclinations would be in the direction. of
restoration of the monarchy. 1t may
be that Hapsburg reunion in Vienna"
will, sooner or later, prove to be the
underlying purpose of this weeks events
and that the youthful archduke waiting
to reclaim the ancestral throne will
shortly mount it to reign, as Victor
Emmanuel reigns at Rome, but to submit
to the overlordship of a dictator, as
Italy's curbed and shackled monarch has
done since 1922.
The Old World grows unsafer for
democracy day by day.

Notebook Of Science Progress in Field,
Laboratory and Study.
BY THOMAS r. HENRY.

restrained for some time in Africa and
spread quite suddenly with the arrival
of favorable meteorological conditions.
The insects, as a race, are very ancient,
but their great diversification was prac
tically contemporaneous with that Of
the plants. The two were inseparable
and necessary companions.
Since this great evolutionary squirt.
the African biologist points out. only
species have evolved. There have been
no new orders or even families.
He is extremely doubtful of any new
orders arising in the future, especially
among the mammals. Some of the
groups have had plenty Of opportunity
to put out new shoots but have failed to
do so. He cites the kangaroos. They
have been isolated in Australia for 40
600 600 years. In all this time the only
new creature to arise has been the tree
Kangaroo member of the same order.
A better; possibility would seem to be
the rats and mice-among the least
specialized of all animals. But, says
DR.. Broom, it can be shown that more
than 100000 Years ago a species of
mice invaded Madagascar, then a ro-
dentless land. and in all the time that
has elapsed since, all that has come
from it have been great many species
and varieties of rats-but no new kind
of animal. The best possibility, he says
would seem to lie with an obscure animal
known as the gymnura. or moon rat, of
Southern Asia. one of the least special
lied of mammals. Yet for 10000, 600
years the only new creature that has
sprung from this line has been the
closely allied hedgehog.
He finds the same situation among the
birds, insects and plants. All have
tended to greater and greater special
ization, which is the road to extinction
rather than greater development. Thus,
he believes, evolution in the known
orders of life is a closed chapter.
