Jules Cambon.

In the memory of WaShingtonians in
particular and all deyotees of Franco
American fraternity in general, the
names of two French diplomats will be
long and gratefully enshrined-Jules
Jusserand and Jules Cambon. The
scholarly JuSserand served his country
in the United States for the better part
Of quarter of a century, including the
period of alliance between the great
republics in the World War, the climax
of a friendship which he had so notably
helped to cement.
On September 49, in Vevey, on the
shores of Lake Geneva, Jules Cambon
passed on at the end of life of ninety
years. He was Ambassador of France
in Washington when the United States
was at war with Spain in 1898. To his
hands was entrusted the representation
of Spanish interests, and, as Madrid's
spokesman, he negotiated the prelimi-
nary terms of peace with the American
Government. 1t is s matter of recorded
history that the suave Frenchman's Old
World courtliness ard diplomatic fnesse
contributed effectually to contamination
of the treaty which, ended the war and
the restoration of normal Spanish
American relations President Mckinley
and Secretary Hay held M. Cambon in
highest esteem.
After several postwar years in Wash
ington Ambassador Cambon was trans
ferred to Berlin, where he served con-
tinuouSly until the outbreak of the World
War During his German days it fell
to his lot to handle the succeeding crises
provoked by the Kaiser's Moroccan
adventures Despite the storms of that
period M. Cambon- did much to tran
ouilize Franco German relations. When
the crash came in 1914 he was compelled
to leave the country under humiliating
circumstances, but his name came to
be remembered by Germans with respect
and appreciation.
Together with his brother Paul, Am
bassador to Great Britain throughout
the war, and jules Jusserand, Jules
Cambon was one CT group of twentieth
century French anvoys who lent real
distinction to their calling. The chronicle
of their times will record that to these
three muSketeers Of diplomacy credit
was mainly due for laying those founda-
lions which in the hour of her supreme
need assured France the comradeship
in arms of both branches of the English
speaking race.

real appraisal Of life's essentials leads
to the conviction that we are unduly
influenced by things that are purely ex-
traneous and unrelated to its chief in
tereStS
We recall that Thoreau was unwilling
to cucumber his life with unnecessary
possessions. He found that they hin
dered him not only in his studies, but
in the attainment of his ideals. AS he
grew in years he sought to rid himself
of everything that would embarrass and
hinder him in his search.
A supreme example of life lived on
such high levels that it could not and
would not feel the pressure of unneces-
sary encumbrances was that of the Mas
ter. In the prosecution of His ministry
He steadfaStly refused to permit external
and environing conditions to embarrasS
or hinder Him. 1t was written of Him
that He knew not where to lay His
head" His judgment of men was based
upon what He discovered within rather
than what was without. He penetrated
beneath that which was superficial and
revealed potential powers of which they
had never dreamed. He persistently
sought to show men that life did not
consist in the things which they pos
sesSed; that moral worth transcribed
everything.
When we come to the real tests or
crises OF life we are driven TO diSpoSSeSS
ourselves of many things that have I'M
duly claimed our attention and regard.
In such situation we lay aside the orna-
ments and superficial adornments that
have claimed an excess of consideration
and we realize that LIES finer values are
disclosed in what we are rather than in
what We have. In our religious practice,
and indeed in our devotional life. we
place too great stress upon the externals
OF our religious profession. They doubt
less have their place, where they serve
as means to an end, but where they
occupy too large place in our conSidera-
ton Of things essential they prove I'M
satisfying and unavailing when a supreme
test IS upon us. These more recent years
have made clear the futility of wrong
appraiSals. One Of the mightiest lessons
that our latest crisis has enforced is that

THINGS THAT HINDER
BY RIGHT REV JAMES E. FREEMAN D. D., IL d. D. c. l.,
BISHOP OF WASHINGTON.

There come times in the life of indi-
vidualS and peoples when they are COM
PEELED to freshly appraise their equipment
and the accumulation Of things that the
multiplying years have brought in their
train. A situation arises where it be-
comes necessary to discover what is
essential and what is non essential, what
is economical and what is extravagant,
in accomplishing given course.
There is an incident in the Old Tesla
ment that illustrates the force of this.
In the thirty third chapter of the Book
of Exodus we have the record of the
migration of a people from one country
to another. Moving under the direction
of great leader namely, Moses, they
had pursued their journey hopefully and
expectantly, but now and again they
experienced severe interruption that
threatened the success of their venture
and the failure of their enterprise. In the
instance referred to their leader had
solemnly admonished them concerning
their wilful apostasy and their disobe-
dience to the just demands of their
leaders. In their embarrassment and
humiliation we read that "the children
of Israel stripped themselves OF their
OTHdInenLS Dy IIle MOuIlJ Ol I1OIcD. EVE
IDENTIFY they had come to realize that
they had laid too great stress upon
things purely external and that were
unrelated to the large interests OF the
attainment of the goal they sought to
reach. A critical situation compelled
them to consider more seriously the real
purpose of their pilgrimage and TO lay
aside anything and everything that him
dered them in their quest.
Far removed as the incident is, it is
suggestive of condition that repeatedly
faces us in the prosecution of our LIES
plan. 1t is inevitable that as the years
multiply we accumulate without refer
ence to their value or use things that
are purely ornamental and unesSential.
This is not only true as it concerns our
occupation, our homes. but it is still
more true as it relates to our associations
and Affiliations. Our bias and our preju-
dice come largely from the undue value
we place upon intellectual conceitS that
have no distinct bearing upon the deep
and permanent values of life itself. Any

policy of having summation OF the
budget prepared for publication 1mme-
diately after the Congress has acted on
all financial matters. This summation
will be ready on or before July /, unless
the Congress is in session. 1t will
exhibit the revenue estimates, so revised
by the Treasury, as to reflect any
changes in the economic situation dur
ing the preceding six or seven months
and also the revisions made by Congress
in the tax laws. 1t will provide a COM
plete summary of all appropriations and
expenditure authorizations made by the
Congress and related estimates of ex-
penditureS. Lastly, 1t will indicate the
need for executive or administrative
measures in controlling the execution of
the budget during the fiscal year 1885,"
The prolonged session of Congress
and the unexpected enactment of a
tax bill, not on the cards when the
President sent his budget message, have
delayed the Budget Bureau in it's prep
When it is complete it should be a
highly Informative document, not only
to the members of Congress, but to the
taxpayers who may wish to study the
gap between estimates of revenue and
items of appropriations that reached
some ten billion dollars during the past
session.
Such a study, moreover, combined
with the Presidents action in putting
emergency agencies under the Budget
Bureau, should lead once and for all to
the adoption of single budget, doing
away with the two-faced affair which
separates normal expenditures from
emergency relief expenditures. The
Presidents belief that the peak of the
emergency has been passed indicates he
plans the resumption of orthodox
budgeting of all expenditures, which in
itself should mean more careful spending.

the same weakness as are other

dent, an inability to think things
through. In one breath he denounces
the social aspects of the New Deal and
in the next he praises the Presidents
social privilege" principles. Discussing
the effect of the P. w. A. and the
w. P. A. and declaring that such pro-
grams lead to more and greater eX-
penditures of public funds without per-
manent recovery, the general says:

parently in a daze and doesn't under

takes to strike down the New Deal as
exemplified in measures other than the
N. r. A. and at the same time declares
his faith in the principles of President
Roosevelt. 1t does not make sense.
Also, it will not make sense to the
President. Criticism is not one of the
things that the Chief Executive Graves.
What has happened to New Dealers in
the past when they fell out with Mr..
Roosevelt is an open book.
Gen. johnson sticks to the Blue
Eagle" to the N. r. A. idea. He does
not appear to realize that the rest Of
the. New Deal, the A. A. A, the P. w. A,
the T. v. A. and all the other alphabet
ical combinations are complementary to
the N. r. A. Probably Secretary Wal
lace is as devoted to the A. A. A, Secre-
tary Ickes to the P. w. A. and Harry
L. Hopkins, prince of Spenders, to the
w. P. A. as the general is to the
N. r. A.
In few weeks Gen. johnson will
retire as works progress administrator
for New York. 1t is his purpose then
to take the stump as friendly critic
of the New Deal administration. He
conceives such course as constituting
answering loyalty to the President
and his ideals" The President may
ponder that ancient Italian proverb
which says: God preserve me from my
friends; from my enemies will pre-
serve myself"

1.-THE lousy aspects" of the New Deal
are to come under attack by one of the
Presidents friends, Gen. Hugh S. john
son. The general, who Matched out the
Blue Eagle" for the administration, will
take the warpath in criticism Of the
administrations attempt to cure unem-
ployment through the Works Progress
Administration and the Public Works
Administration. "This w. P. A. and
P. w. A. stuff is the bunk" the general
Enthusiastically declares. He ought to
know, for he has been the New York
works administrator.
The answer to the unemployment
problem, in the opinion of Gen. John
son, is the establishment of shorter work
hours, as under the N. r. A. If con-
tinued relief is necessary, then by all
means go back to the dole, says tive
general, rather than mess around with
work-relief projects which cost just
about three times as much as it does
to give direct relief.
Furthermore, this friend of the Presi-
dent, who is intent upon saving the
New Deal from itself if he can, asserts
that business is being retarded by GER
tain economic and social aspects of the
administration. Here is heresy indeed.
And yet almost in the same breath
the general declares that in the COM
ing election the issue will be between
the principles of Hooverism, which
means special privilege" and the prin-
ciples of Roosevelt, (which means social
privilege" The general Ia afflicted with

the radicals and conservatives in indi-
vidual States. National Committee head
quarters still provide little evidence of
effective organization.
There is the further handicap that the
Republican campaign can hardly get
under way until next years national
convention and its choice of ticket. At
present a scramble is developing among
rival candidates for the presidential
nomination.
The Republican hope lies in a sweeping
popular reaction against New Deal ex-
periments that will upset the best-laid
plans of the Democratic political ma
chine. Either that or a cleavage in the
ranks of the Democrats.
Judged by the rivalry being shown by
the individuals who would like to have
the Republican nomination, these po-
litical experts feel that either or both
of those developments could confront the
Democrats. Much may depend on what
the Supreme Court does to the New
Deal during the coming Winter.

He was q man who should have moved
To heights beyond the common lot.
His life most brilliant should have proved.
Somehow or other it did not.
The race for power or for pelf-
He should have won it in walk.
And yet he just enjoyed himself.
He liked to sit around and talk.
He had no habits that we're bad.
His thirst was of the temperate kind
He quit tobacco when a lad.
His speech, though vigorous, was re-
fined.
Yet as the years went f1eeting by
One trait his prospects seemed to balk.
Twas this, he owned it with sigh;
He liked to sit around and talk.
