LAWRENCEVILLE. Ill. October I.
Redmond Pinkstaff, 81. of Tulsa,
Okla, was found dead yesterday in
the home where penumonia threat
ened the life of the last Of his four
spinster sisters.
In 1875 the sisters pledged they
would never marry. The convention
was not broken.
Pinkstaff came to the family farm
on the banks OF the Wabash to attend
the funerals last Sunday of Susie Ann,
Sc, and Clara Ann. 10. A third sister,
Martha Ann, died 40 years ago.
Little hope was held by physicians
for the surviving sister Mary Ann, 73.
Without outside help, Susie Ann,
Clara Ann and Mary Ann had oper-
ated the 180-acre farm for the past IS
years Each divided the duties. but
when major havest work came, all
three went to the fields.
Exhaustion after a hard days work
in a hay field led indirectly to their
illness and death. Heavy colds fol-
lowed and penumonia quickly de-
yeloped.

that the French N. R. A. plans to in
wade the field of price fixing.
Conspicuous In the governments
scheme is the provision to make bind

a limited period, the decisions reached
by a majority. This self-governing
project embraces control Of output &C

and the emission Of loans within an

Although France has come to the

range of possibilities that French ex-

A Royal Gentleman.

A recent issue of the illustrated
London News contains an especially
notable portrait photograph of his
majesty, George v. Seated before a
microphone in his residence at Sand
ringham, the sovereign is represented
at moment when he was speaking
to his people throughout the empire.
His eyes are fixed on a manuscript
which he holds with both hands and
his countenance reflects his concen-
tration upon his task. But an atmos-
phere of quiet peacefulneSs pervades
the picture. The central figure, one
may see at a glance, is a gentleman
poised and balanced as a matured,
developed and disciplined character
should be. No trappings of state, no
pageantry are needed to advertise the
essential dignity of the royal subject.
BY birth or by training, by innate gift
or by abundant experience, the King,
1t Is plain, has achieved spiritual ma
turity. The process may not matter,
but it happens that the result is an
endowment Of the whole world, and
Americans gladly salute the good
neighbor whose unpretending genius
is q present asset in an earth in which
civilization requires friends.
How different it might be If this
royal gentleman were a less rational
person! Again and again in recent
years the international apple cart

Arms Factories Should
Be Made Public Utilities
To the Editor Of The Star

To the Editor Of The Star:
Many persons favor having the
Government take over the manufac-
ture OF war munitions, In order to
prevent the private manufacturers
from finding such gold mine in their
business that they will keep stirring
up trouble in order to get more busi-
ness. It seems to be clearly shown BY
the Senate investigation and by pri-
vate Investigations that they do this.
There are some objections, of course,
to having the Government conduct
this business, though it Is doubtful
whether the objections are strong
enough to overcome the advantages.
But If not Government operation.
then why not make these factories
public utilities? That way they could
be strictly supervised, their nefarious
operations given publicity and their
profits restricted
We ought to let them make 6 per
cent dividends, and then tax all their
further earnings so per cent until
they reach the point where they can
pay 10 per cent dividends, and above
that tax them 80 per cent of all their
earnings. Then they will not earn
so much. As it is, they earn too
much. Not too much for their own
satisfaction, doubtless, but too much
for the safety of the world. Too much
for the safety of the United States.

might have been overturned had he
indulged in political experimentation
or engaged in frothy adventures OF
conquest. Instead, he has been con-
sistently mild and unassuming. The
example of his cousin, the former
Kaiser, perhaps sobered him, but it Is
more likely that he was by nature re-
served, tolerant and kind. In any
event, it is difficult to imagine him
rattling sabers or talking of military
partnership with the Deity. Mon.
archs, like humber individuals, act
within the limits Of psychological
mold, and the temperament of King
George is mannerly and just, consider.
ate and merciful.
Soon he will celebrate his jubilee
and the people Of the United States
it may be expected, will find ways te
signify to him at that time their ap.
probation and their gratitude. Tht
EngliSh-speaking nations never may
be embraced in single union, but
the ties which bind them in indie.

stronger, and King George is entitled
to much of the credit In the circum.

Another Landmark to Be
Razed for Parking Lot
To the Editor of The Star

To the Editor of The Star.
All longtime Washington residents
that have any regard for the appear
! ance Of their city as whole are made
sick at heart to read of the impending
destruction of one more familiar land
mark. the stately and dignified old
Riggs mansion, in the 1900 block of I
street. The space is to be used for a
| parking lot and will accommodate
about $50 cars, one reads.
Doubtless the beautiful old trees in
the garden will be hacked down also.
What matters their grateful shade in
our sweltering Summer suns if they
occupy square foot or two of ground
that might be more proftably filled
by a bumper or tire? Or what mat
ter that the old mansion itself is filled
with memories and with historic asso-
Citations binding Washington to the
days when life here was more gra-
ciouS and Seemly than it is now, or
that there are SO many purposes for
which even in these scrambled days
the old house might still suitably be
used-as an art gallery or museum or
branch library?
Apparently not enough civic pride
and wealth are conjoined in individual
possession to give these considerations
any thought and the Government has
unlimited funds for destruction and
for hasty unworthy new construction.
but nothing at all for maintenance or
preservation of fine old tradition.
Thus does the steady uglification of
downtown Westinghouse the very
heart OF the once lovely old city-pro-
ceed and the net result of the vandal-
ism is blatantly and shamelessly bla-
zoned forth under the name of prog
resS." THERESA RUSSELL.

Huey and the Schools.
From the Birmingham Age-Herald.

From the Birmingham Age-Herald.
That was a fine speech which a
Louisiana legislator made in opposi.
ton to Longs proposal to take over
the appointment Of school teachers Of
that State. He called his colleagues
"putty-faced stooges," quite classic
phrase, and warned his listeners that
their SNUG acquiescence in Longs
sweeping program Of autocratic con-
troll was q prelude to disaster.
It is by no means certain that hts
eloquence forced a concession out Of
the whip-cracking Senator. But that,
in the circumstances, any change
should have been forthcoming Is
significant. It means that there Is q
limit to the cowardice Of the Louisiana
Legislature and perhaps a limit to the
complacency of the Louisiana people.
Also it may be that the teachers
who would have been at the mercy
Of the delectable Huey got into
action. What such a movement can
amount to Is not unknown in
Alabama, where teachers have been
a formidable force once they struck
upon a basis of solidarity. In any
event 1t Is something which self
respecting citizens of Louisiana should
look upon as a Christmas gift that
their schools have not altogether gone
into the rapacious maw Of the King.

WASHINGTON OBSERVATIONS
BY FREDERIC WILLIAM VILE.

tary Hull has just indicated that the
State Department has no intention of
disciplining Ambassador Josephus
Daniels for speech in Mexico City
last July. Religious groups throughout
the United States criticized his re-
marks and one of Representative Lud-
lows constituents demanded Mr.. Dam
iels' recall. Secretary Hull says that
protests against the Ambassadors ad-
dress "are due to misinterpretation
of 1t" and that Mr.. Daniels has made
1t abundantly clear that there was not
the slightest intention on his part of
expressing any opinion on controver-
sial matters in Mexico"
When the gifted Abbey Theater play
ers of Dublin were the guests of SEN
ator Duffy, Democrat, of Wisconsin at
the Capitol the other day they were
keen to know just how many men of
Irish blood are members of Congress.
Looking over the Senate roster, the
visitors found the following names sug-
gesting Irish or Scotch-Irish origin:
Burke, Byrnes, Connally, Costigan,
Donahey, Duffy, Guffey, Lonergan, Nc
Carran, McGill, McAdoo, McKelIar,
McNary, Maloney, Murphy, Murray,
OMahoney and Walsh. Scanning the
House membership, the Dublin actor
folk pounced upon even more names
smacking of the Emerald Isle-Fitzpat-
rick, Flanagan, O'Brien, O'Connell,
OConnor, O'Day, OLeary, O'Malley,
ONeal, Monaghan, McDufie, Nc
Grath, McGehee. .McGroarty, McLaugh-
lin, Quinn, Reilly, Sullivan, Sweeney
and many others whose patronyms are
encountered now and then on the roll
of the Irish Free State Parliament
itself.
When President Roosevelt was asked
by recent visitor about reports that
international stabilization of currency
is in prospect he coined new idiom,
speculative stabilization," and sug-
gested that it's about the only kind in
sight.
In light Of the Supreme Courts
eight-to-one decision in the hot oil
case, political Washington is recon-
sidering its judgment as to the prob
able attitude of the bench on the
constitutional aspects of the New Deal.
Hitherto there's been an inclination to
assume that on all major occasions a
liberal majority Of the court could
be depended upon to affirm the valid
ity of the Federal history made since
March 4, 1893.

Strong Opposing Forces Fight
Over Child Labor amendment

of the proposed amendment, and re-
calls that in approving the cotton
textile code on July 8, 1888, the
President emphasized the prohibition
of employment of children under 16
as one of the significant achievements.
After years of fruitless effort and
discussion, he said, the ancient
atrocity of child labor was abolished
in day. because the code permitted
employers to do by agreement
that which none of them could do
singly and live in competition. In
a radio address last July President
Roosevelt referred to child labor as
'monstrous thing adding that
its abolition under the cotton textile
and other codes had made him per-
Sonaly happier than any other one
thing with which he had been con-
nected since he had become Presi-
dent"
I'm any case" thinks the Philadel.
phia Evening Bulletin, however, reg
ulation Of child labor Is the province
OF the States, not of some distant Fed
eral bureaucracy" The Saratoga
Springs Saratogian advises that "if the
renewed drive to bring about adoption
of the amendment Is successful, its
validity, at least, will be open to ques-
ton"
zone may pertinently ask" accord
ing to the Syracuse Herald, why it
was necessary, desirable or in any way
reasonable to name 18 years in the
amendment. Many girl under the
age of Is is married and burdened
with household responsibilities and
even with the cares of motherhood.
Many stalwart youth between 16 and
18 is able and willing to earn money
for his family'S subsistence. The age
specification in the amendment was an
egregious blunder We affirm this en-
phatically, while sympathizing strong
ly with the purpose and spirit of the
amendment, so far as it was intended
to prevent or remedy the exploitation
or other abuses of CHILDHOOD of school
age in industries or business occupa.

lection that "the list Of rights over
the control of children it would involve
