To the latter school the action Of
Great Britain in the crisis appears of
vital importance, and 1t finds the
waverings of British policy, as Illus
trated by Sir John Simon, not only
painful, but very dangerous.
These two American groups do not
by any means represent pro-League
and anti-League people, nor is the
division one between those who trust
in pacts and treaties and those who
rely only on force. This time the
pacifists and the fire-eaters are all
mixed up. and that fact would seem
to indicate that there is a middle
course which America ought to follow

reason that war in Europe would be
a disaster for us even if We kept out
Of it. Therefore, since the danger is
not immediate, We ought to study the
whole question intelligently and, above
all. without emotion.
Perhaps such study would lead us
to real neutrality if war should finally
break out-a neutrality based on an
understanding of the faults and the
virtues of both sides on the knowl-
edge that both had right on their side
and that both were wrong; that the
one duty We in America have is to
keep out Of the whole wretched bust
ness. President Wilson told us in
1914 that We must be neutral in
thought as well as in deed We could
not be, because our knowledge of what
was going on was the result Of the

1--WE months of legislative back
- ing and filling have combined
to put President Roosevelt at
a striking disadvantage. With
the passing of May he is up
against five major headlines. Unless
he can crowd through prodigious
amount of legislation in the next
of his opponents.
Vital measures of the New Deal are
about to expire by statutory limita-
ton. The two-year emergency period
projected in the first Roosevelt leg
islative program is up. New legisla-
ton is imperative to continue or sup
plant the expiring measures. The
days of each are numbered, no mat
ter how fast the House of Representa-
tives may move the Senate's rules Of
unlimited debate enable few hos
tile or recalcitrant Senators to tie up
the whole program and break down
important parts Of the New Deal by
filibuster.
Exactly as was the case in the lame
duck sessions Of Congress, which
were abolished by the Norris amend
ment to the Constitution, the stu
alton for filibusters is ideal. The
reason lies in the headlines ahead,
which are as follows:
June 16-The National Recovery
Administration passes out of ex-
istence by the expiration OF the ma
tional industrial recovery act. The
Federal Alcohol Control Administra-
ton and no fewer than eight lesser
New Deal agencies collapse with 1t
unless legislation can be passed.
Rail Act In Jeopardy.
June 1.-THE emergency railroad
(co-ordinator) act expires and with
it the Office of Joseph B. Eastman as
railroad co-ordinator, with power to
consolidate railroad facilities, unless
the new railroad legislation passes
| meantime.
June 30-The deposit insurance law
expires unless saved by the passage
of at least part Of the administration
banking bill. Meantime, on June Is,
comes the statutory time limit for
bank officials to repay loans to their
own institutions. Scores of ofticials,
unable to get the money to do so, face
fines and imprisonment unless they
get an extension by the new legisla-
| ton.
June 30-Some $3.50 900, 900 emer-
gency taxes will expire.
June Ex-senator elect Rush D.
Holt, Democrat, of West Virginia,
reaches the constitutional age of 80
years and seeks to take his seat. What
the Senate does about Mr.. Holt him
self may be of no great moment to
| the administration leaders in view OF
their overwhelming Democratic ma
jority, but the question as to his
eligibility is matter of the highest
privilege, superceding all other issues.
and there are indications it will pro-
woke long debate.
In addition to the Federal Alcohol
Control Administration. the following
Government agencies depend on the
N. X. A. for their legal being and
would have to suspend operations If
the N. r. A. we're to lapse on June Is:
Public Works Administration, in
Guiding emergency housing and sub
sistence homesteads.
Electric Home and Farm Authority.
National Emergency Council.

BY WILLIAM R. CASTLE, JR-,

Former United States Undersecretary OF
State.
IN THE United States there are
two sharply contrasting schools
Of thought about the present crit
i ical European situation. Both
groups are intent on keeping the
peace, but they disagree as to method
Speaking very broadly, one school
believes that the only hope of averting
war is to get Germany back into the
League of Nations. The other believes
that Germany has proved its disloyalty
to the modern struggle against ag-
erosion by its unilateral denuncia-
ton of the military clauses of the
Versailles treaty, that it will have to
be restrained from further assaults on
civilization, and that. for this, the
League is impotent.

F. A. C. A. Fights to Live.

The Alcohol Control Administration
taking cognizance of the plight OF
the N. r. A. and all its broods, is max
ing an attempt to save itself. Within
the week it went to Congress to ask
special legislation which would set the
liquor control codes apart from the
balance of the N. R. A. systems and
give such codes, the F. A. c. A. itself
and its rules and regulations, direct
statutory support"
The Senate recalcitrants from the
beginning have seen these now closely
impending headlines as their ace in
the hole, and this probably explains
why the session so far has been mostly
a stalemate. The game has been to
hold off as many as possible of the
things Mr.. Roosevelt particularly de-
sires to have passed and to crowd
these into the fateful weeks OF June
thus to give a collection of minority
blocs the whip hand.
These minorities did not dare to
filibuster openly against the S4.88O,-
100000 relief bill, but they dragged
the debate on it out over three months
including one preference of 1t to the
Appropriations Committee.
That no single administration meas
ure has passed since the relief bill
can be charged in part to the in
eptness of the Senate leadership. Sue
cessively they permitted the Bank
head bill, proposing an appropriation
of a billion dollars for the purchase
of land for farm tenants; the anti
lynching bill, the soldiers bonus bill
and the Norris T. v. A. bill right OF
way. After two weeks of debate the
Bankhead bill was sent back to COM
mittee and prolonged filibusters greatly
delayed the anti-lynching and T. v. A
bills. The bonus bill was passed, but
in a form to invite presidential veto
Thus more than a month which might
have been devoted to administration
measures was wasted.
Few Measures Passed.
The only measures of national i'm
portance that have been enacted since
January / consist of four departmental
appropriation bills, continuance of the
Reconstruction Finance Corp, the 81,
$50 ,000, 900 relief bill, and the pink
slip" income tax publicity repeal.
There remain still on the Legislative
ways, in addition to the N. r. A., the
banking and tax bills which must be
dealt with before July l, the social
security bill, the several transportation
reorganization bills, the holding COM
pany bill, all of which the President
has said must be passed before ad-
journment. OF the 10 regular appro-
priation bills, only 4 so far have
been signed by the President, and
these also must be completed before
July unless some Of the departments
are to find themselves without funds
to carry on.
The situations of the banking bill
would be considered favorable to the
administration except for the fact
that 1t Is in the hands of that I'm
compromising old Roman, Senator
Carter Glass Of Virginia. Despite the
fact that the votes in the Banking
and Currency Committee may be
stacked, Senator Glass has been sue
cessful already in prolonging debate

OLD TEMPLES FOUNDATION
THREATENED WITH RUIN

Situated upon one of the few hills
of Wicomico County about twelve
miles from Salisbury, on the north
west bank of the Wicomico River,
stands "Old Green Hill Church" prob
ably the oldest building in the county.
This church was built, as verified by
the bricks in the end wall, in 1922,
replacing one built of logs about 1892
Green Hill was the parish church of
Stepney Parish, one of the original
thirty laid out in 1892, under Sir Rich
ard Copley, the first Royal Governor
of Maryland, who made in that year
the Church of England the established
Church of the Maryland province.
A beautiful grove of oak and pine
trees surround this ancient edifice,
which was built on slot number 16,
lying in the county aforesaid called
and known by the name of Green Hill
town." Green Hill Town, laid out
according to the Act of Assembly in
17O1, was part of entry and enjoyed
extensive trade not only by water but
by land as well, it being on the regular
overload trail which led to the Who're
Kill (now Lewis, Del.) A little below
Green Hill Town, the Wicomico Creek
empties into the Wicomico River and
right up the Creek, almost in sight Of
the old Green Hill Town, was Graves
End Town, or rather the Lot, upon
which the Maryland Archives set forth
a law for the building in 1719. Near
this latter place was born in 1741, the
illustrious Samuel Case, chief justice

BAY BRIDGE
STRIKES ANOTHER
BIG DIFFICULTY
Said To Employ Fewer Men Than
Is Required By Govern
ment Regulations

The proposed Chesapeake Bay
bridge seems further away from con-
struction than ever. The opinion has
been expressed that little hope can
be held for the bridge project since
President Roosevelt said that in order
to provide employment for 100000
men, no projects can be accepted which
require an expenditure for both labor
and materials mounting higher than
$1,000 per man employed.
Mr.. Nice revealed after a con-
ference with Mr.. Ickes that it had
been estimated the project would en-
ploy from 5000 to 1000 men directly
and about the same number indirectly
in providing materials. He said he
had mot lost hope" but did not say
to what extent he had been encour-
aged to pursue the matter.
Governor Nice explained that pres
ent plans call for building the bridge
itself entirely with Federal money.
The State would be charged with the
cost of approaches.
The States plan was to issue $1O,-
100000 in bonds against the bridge
and sell these to the Works Admins
tration Tolls from the bridge would
be used to liquidate the bonds, and at
the end of ten years the span would
become the sole property of the State.
The Governor made it clear, how
ever, that the construction of the
bridge depends entirely on the grant
ing of Federal funds.
Maryland can't build the bridge
by ITSELF" he pointed out. eve simply
haven't got the money. If the project
is left entirely up to Maryland, with
out Federal funds, then the bridge
won't be built"
Thus, the whole project is sup in
the air." In the lower section of the
Shore, while there has been no out
spoken opposition to the Bridge, there
has been no active backing. The sit
uation here is one of Indifference.

fractions of our county, be content to
stand by and allow this building
representing the highest expression Of
art in this county in 1783-to be
washed away because of the ever wild
ening river. The old trees, now hold
ing up the river bank, have most of
their roots exposed, when they fall
the ten foot cliff along the river shore
will cave in, as will gradually the
church. Everywhere we read of res
torations of historical places, cannot
something be done to preserve this
ancient and venerable old church?

Cdrnation Milk
Is Better For All Cookery

You have doubtless used Carnation
Milk for various types of c~ookery-for
soups and sauces because of the velvety
texture and rich creaminess which re-
suit; for wonderful candies, smooth and
f~ne-grained; for delicatefragileca kesand
buildings. And, you know how famous
it is for rich, velvet-smooth ice cream.
All of these results come from def
mite qualities. Carnation Milkis simply
the purest of whole milk, evaporated to
double richness, "homogenized" and
sterilized for ~safekeeping. Because of
its double portion of cream, it makes
foods richly creamy without the use of
extra butter and cream. Because it is
''homogenized" it gives an exception
ally smooth, fine texture. And because
it is always uniform in quality it pro-
duces more certainly successful results.
