WORLD COURT BACKED BY
U. S. FOR 20 YEARS
By E. S. Barber.
Sometimes I almost lose faith in
a democracy-so many people won't
think, and so many more can not.
An eastern proverb says, He who
knows not, and knows not that he
knows not, is fool" I should be
sorry to call Wilma Hendrickson
hard names, but if she will adVer-
tise her ignorance!
If she would read bit, and learn
the facts before she INDUCES in
TRADES against the World Court and
threats against our clear headed
Senators, she would know that the
court was an American idea, first
proposed by EJihu Root, that every
President for 20 years has Endorsed
it; that wicked Europe has accepted
every reservation we made, one Of
which expressly states that no de-
cision Of the court should be rem
dered upon any question affecting
our interests unless asked for by our
government. So her statement
about "a body greater in authority
than our Congress" is the sheerest
nonsense.
If Wilma wants war (and to the
infantile mind there's something
about a soldier" and the waving
flags, beating drums, ETC., which
anesthetizes the knowledge that war
is not only hell, but futile and costly
and demoralizing) then she is per-
haps consistent. Has she anything
better to propose for settling inter-
national disputes?

Capital Capers
BY GEORGE ABELL

lTTOSPITABLE Frederick VanNuys Of Indiana,
L i the only Senator IN Washington who has
4 penthouse apartment, was host at a lavish
cocktail party in honor of Senator and Mrs.
Sherman Minton.
Two white-coated parmen kept the cocktail
shakers busily rafting, and poured whisky high
balls for those who wished. Tea cups ratified
family in an adjoining room where gossip re-
placed the animated political discussions around
the bar.
Many Capitol big-wigs and official celebrities
attended.
Serious minded Secretary of State Cordell
Hull, VINO always looks as if he has solved a
difficult arithmetic problem wandered about the
room, shaking hands with Senator'S many of
whom had voted against the World Court. But
Hull never cherishes any hard feelings.
Morning coated Senator Arthur Vandenberg
of Michigan, frequently mentioned as a pcs
sible Republican dark horse" for the Presiden-
tial nomination moved majestically about, gra-
ciouSly nodding to friends
Senator Joe Guffey, the Pennsylvania politi-
clan, also came in, hailed jovially as Joe" by
acquaintance on all sides of the room. He
looked, as always, immaculate-his gray-stripe6
trousers neatly creased mis- patent-leather shoes
brilliantly polished.
A AMBASSADOR Troyanovsky Of Soviet Russia,
N wearing dark, douple-breasted suit, shook
hands with score of guests, speaking his slow
but precise English. Upon his arrival in this
country, Troyanovsky spoke little English, but
he has vastly improved since then.
Genial Senator Vic Donahey Of Ohio asked
for a cup of coffee and quietly sat down in one
corner to enjoy it. But trends ferreted him out
and the coffee was cold before his lips touched it.
An interesting apparition at the party was
former Senator Jim Watson, whom VanNuys de-
feated in 1882 by 100000 votes.
Time has healed the scars Watson, in his
morning coat and striped trousers, beamed de-
lghtfully at his host and greeted Hoosier guests
with his habitual smile.
Glad to see you boys again." he remarked
to one group of Indianians Mighty mighty

meant it.

French English Pact Explained

nation of IS million people simply
refuses to be bound any longer to
a treaty which, in it's opinion,
places it in position of inferi-
GRITTY.
Now, the only hope of arms re-
duction and limitation rests upon
one thing. That is that all the
major powers must be party to
the limitation agreement. If
any one great European power re-
mains free to have as big an army
or air force as it pleases, the
rest of the powers will insist upon
a free hand to do likewise.
Today Germany regards herself
as such a free agent. If Ger
many continues to rearm, Britain
and France will do the same. If
Germany will agree to come back
into the league and the disarma-
ment conference, however, then
perhaps all three, along with other
important European nations, can
reduce and limit their war ma
chimes.
That is what Britain and France
are now seeking. They are try
ing to get Germany to return to
the league and the conference.
To induce her to do so, they agree
to scrap the military clauses of
the Treaty of Versailles, which
gave Germany a position of infe-
riority, and acknowledge her right
to arms equality. 1t sounds para
doxical. But it is not.
The move is not in the direction
of the rearmament Of Europe, but
exactly the opposite. If Germany
will return to the conference and
agree to limit her armament, the
others can do the same. And the
present ornaments race can stop.
And if Germany will return to the
league and sign the proposed mu-
tual nonaggression pacts with her
neighbors, peace will certainly be
more secure.
NO OIle AOI ulOIlIeLG Purposes
that Germany shall go ahead and
arm herself to the limit. That is
precisely what everybody is afraid
she is up to now. What they are
seeking is a general arms limita-
ton pact, supplemented by a mu-
tual security pact via which Ger
many now isolated, would return
to the European concert.

WHEN DID PEOPLE
FAVOR WORLD COURT?

BY a World Peace Believer.
In your editorial Jan. 80, you in
fer that the majority of the Amer
lean people have shown themselves
in favor of the World Court. Will
you kindly inform us as to when
and on what occasion the American
people have ever shown themselves
as favoring our adherence to the
World Court?
If my memory serves me right,
whenever our joining the League Of
Nations in any way, shape or form
was political issue the people have
voted overwhelmingly against the
proposition.

WANTS TO KNOW real
MOTIVE" ON WORLD COURT

BY Reader.
1 was much surprised at your
editorial, ITO Hell With the World
and America"
I have heard much argument
against our joining the World
Court, but your editorial is the first
argument for it, and that was
rather general and not convincing.
I should appreciate your specific
reasons for our joining. Please
come right out and tell us the adj
vantage of such move.

BY Hugh D. Rose, New York.
May I ask you 10 explain to an
ordinary citizen like myself the
why and the wherefore of the
latest French-English decision to
force Germany to rearm under
pain Of being excluded from the
League of Nations?
I thought that France and Eng
land had been telling us how dan
gerouS Germany was and that it
was impossible to talk of reducing
ornaments as long as Germany
continued to be such menace.
It is too difficult for this con-
fused brain to grasp. So, if you
can write a few enlightening
words on the subject, they will
be much appreciated by grateful
reader.

WE'RE NOT so SMART

THE intelligence of the American people is
l. gradually deteriorating at a rate of about
per cent in each generation, according to
sociologists, and if the trend continues it will
have profound and probably unpleasant ef-
fects on American democratic society.
The trouble. as eugenists have pointed out
before, IS that people who are well equipped
genetically to endow their children with de-
sirable qualities are having fewer children
than those less we'll equipped
The sources Of intelligent leadership are
gradually drying up" says DR.. Hines. The
rate Of l per cent, which seems slow, is, as
biological changes go, actually very rapid"
One comfort Is that the present trend IN
birth rates may be only a temporary thing.
Individual attitudes and social viewpoints
have been shifting tremendously in the last
few decades; when the shift slows down, the
present trend in birth rates may be COM
pletely reversed.

RAIL FORCES
PLAN T00UST
EASTMAN

A powerful alliance between
railway executives and labor,
aimed to kill the office Of Federal
Transportation Coordinator, Is
expected to be formed here Fri
day at a meeting of the directors
of the Association Of American
Railroads.
1t will be the first session OF
the executives since the recent
meeting Of the 81 standard rail
union leaders when the labor rep
resentatives split openly with Co
ordinator Joseph B. Eastman and
demanded direct negotiations with
rail officials. to protect workers
against wholesale dismissalS re-
sulting from consolidation OF ter
minal facilities.
Sides May Unite
John j. Pelley, president Of the
association, is expected to urge
favorable action on the demands
of the labor groups. Pelley, it was
learned last night, is convinced
the roads would benefit material
ly through direct contact with la
Dor, particularly if the powerful
unions will throw their support
behind the executives fight to
block extension of the Coordina-
tors office. Under its present au-
thoriZation the office of Coordina-
tor will expire June l, 1886.
The breach between Eastman
and the railroad labor unions is
attributed chiefly to his insistence
that the roads adopt his recon-
mendations for coordination of
terminal facilities, which, he esti-
mates. would slash so million dol
lars from the annual operating
expenses Of the carriers. More
than 35 millions of this is repre-
sented by wages.
Economy Moves
The first move of the railroads
to adopt Eastman's proposals is
planned by three roads serving
Birmingham, the Illinois Central,
the ST.. Louis-San Francisco, and
the Central of Georgia. This prof
ect. when completed, is expected
to shave $750,000 from the annual
expenses Of the three carriers in
terminal operations in that city.
Others being studied by the AS
sociation of American Railroads
include terminals at Indianapolis
and Kansas City.

NEW QUIZ SET
IN SUICIDE

SACRAMENTO, Calf, Dec. 16.
CU.S0.-At the request of the Gov
ernor of New Jersey, the State of
California has opened new
investigation into the strange
death Of beautiful Aleta Freel.
stage actress, in Hollywood. De-
cember 8.
Miss Freel, wife of Ross Alex
ander, young film star, was ad-
judged a suicide by a coroner's
jury. Testimony indicated she
had taken her life after a quarrel
with her husband.
Apparently dissatisfied with the
Jury verdict, friends and relatives
in Jersey City asked Governor
Hoffman to intercede with Gov
ernor Merriam for more ex.
haustive inquiry into the case.
The Washington times., 1935-12-16

Once at home, the girl declared,
he remained there.
Through a spokesman, Loomis'
father issued a statement profess
ing disbelief his son had been mar.
ried and attributing the whole
thing to a "hoax."
Il can't understand it," Miss
Hover explained. "Our families
have an equally good background.
It's not as If he had married
some some creature There
could never be any question Of
duplicity on either side.
MY parents were Just as doubt
full about the marriage as Homer's,
but when I spoke to my mother
over the telephone, she said,
Laura. since you've done 1t, go
ahead with it. Be a good sport
and see it through
That's what I'm trying to
do But it's terribly difficult,
now"
The girl, a student at the
Traphagen School Of Fashion here,
said she met young Loomis three
months ago.

.H00VER'S TALK
ON RADIO

ST. LOUIS. Dec. 16 G.N.s).
Former President Herbert Hoo
yer arrived here this morning
by train to deliver an address
tonight which is expected to be
in the nature of a reply to
President Roosevelt's speech de-
livered recently in Atlanta, Ga.
The speech. the third of a
series and which is entitled
THE New Deal Further Elk
ploded - Including Relief" will
be broadcast over a nationwide
radio hookup. It is to follow
a dinner to be given in Mr..
Hoover's honor at a local hotel
by the John Marshall Republi-
can Club of st. Louis.
In a brief interview at Union
Station this morning the former
President sideStepped the question
as to whether he will be a candi-
date for nomination for a second
term in the White House next
year. His reply was:
MY only interest is to acquaint
the people of this country with
the issue before them"
The question was then put in
this manner:
do you feel as Calvin Coolidge
did, that you do not choose to
rum"
"The Republican National Con-
vention," Hoover answered, will
take care of that itself. I have
no interest in picking a candi-
date"

PaleOntOIOgist Tells
Low Down on Fish

If your first attempt to learn
how to swim results in a short
gasp and a gurgling plunge to the
bottom Of the lake, don't feel too
bad about 1t because it took the
fishes q few million years to learn
how to swim, and even at that
some Of them aren't experts now.
All this was revealed today in
a report submitted to the Smith
Sonian Institution by Professor An
atol Heintz, noted Norwegian pale
ontologist, who bases his conclu-
sions on an intensive study Of fos-
sill forms Of fishes and their an.
ceStors.
Resembled TadpOIe
The lowly tadpole Of today, &C.
cording to the professor, closely
resembles the earliest forms Of
fishes in that it is an awkward
swimmer and prefers not to ex-
hibit its shortcomings. Because
Of this it spends most Of its time
on the bottom of its watery home.
The first fishes, the professor
holds, merely crawled over the
mud and splashed their way
The Washington times., 1935-12-16

through the puddles which got in
their way.
Not Built to Swim
That the early fishes couldn't
swim was no fault Of their own,
the professor finds, as they simply
weren't built for it.
They revolted at being assigned
to the bottom Of the sea, how.
ever, and sprouted fins, fancy tails
and long streamlined bodies.
Thus equipped, asserts Prof.
Heintz, the denizens of the deep
broke from their rigid confines
at the bottom, and flashed
through the water at terrific
speeds to snap at dangling worms
and wind up in our frying pans.
"It is" declares the professor,
"one of the wonder stories of evo-
luton"

Two Men Hunted
In Express Robbery

BOSTON, Dec. 16 QN.S0.
Two men were sought today in
connection with the holdup Of a
Railway Express Agency truck
and theft of two strong boxes,
containing money, checks and
jewelry, estimated between $1,000
and $4,000.
The suspects were identified
through rogues' gallery pictures
as two of five armed bandits who
blocked the path of the truck
with stolen automobile in the
heart of the city and held up
three employees, including two
