LESSONS THAT AREN'T
LEARNED FROM HISTORY

A small group was gathered within the
quiet confines of church. The faces of
the men and women were serious, for
they did not know at what moment an
armed, uniformed squad might shatter
their ceremony and hustle them off to
prison. With calm defiance, the little
band proceeded in their worship. The
ceremony done, they went their ways
home, knowing themselves to be objects
of official suspicion but more determin-
ed than ever to pay homage to God as
their beliefs dictated.
The foregoing paragraph is not taken
from some work describing the furtive
meetings of early Christians. nor even
the later secret religious gatherings in
bigoted nations where any guise of wor-
ship but one was prohibited. 1t describes
an occurrence of this week in Berlin,
capital of modern Germany, and might
apply equally well to Russia and few
other countries, where the lessons of his
tory are not needed.
Germanys Protestant confessional
synod, in defiance of Nazi orders that no
more ministers shall be ordained, carried
through the ceremony by ordaining two
new pastors in st. Anne's church. 1t has
been the history of religion that it lived
and flourished long after its oppressors
were gone. OOllellllleS Tie llSCll
has been the oppressor, but always it
progressed toward more liberal views,
accepting other denominations and other
ways of worship. The governments
which gave most strenuous opposition to
any branch of the church have either
perished or changed so radically in form
as to be entirely different.
The leaders of the modern world who
seek to solidify their positions by gain
ing dictatorial control over methods of
worship might read the fate of their own
governments in the pages of history. The
most powerful rulers are those who rule
by popular consent, and no man who
suppresses the inborn right of worship
can maintain a position of popularity for
long.
The church should not rule the gov
ernment, but when the government rules
the church the effect is felt in civil dis
orders which overthrow or change the
government.

BUSINESS IN WAR
SELLS LIVES CHE1PLy

The world sees again the gigantic task
it would be to keep business out of war.
In the reported tentative agreement
between the Italian government and the
Societa Italo-Americana del Petrolio,
subsidiary of the Standard Oil company
of New Jersey, is a first-rate demonstra-
ton of the desire for profits, even though
the price be war and death. Fortunes
are amassed in time of war, but every
dollar is bought with human lives.
Should the great oil producing nations
of the world decide to include oil in the
list of war materials on which an en-
barge is placed, it would take only
comparatively minor incident to inaug-
urate a world war. Mussolini already
has indicated that Italy will consider an
embargo on oil as military sanction,
and as such one calling for military re-
prisals. An Italian attack on France,
England or any other of the nations
Joined in sanctions would precipitate
war comparable to the World War. NO
nation desires such a conflagratlOn.
Munitions manufacturers, it has been
shown several times, have been guilty
often of fomenting armed conflict from
which they drew huge profits. Other
forms of business have shared to great
er or smaller degree in the profits of
war. Lives they regard as cheap IN
terms of dollars. Until this kind of bus
mess develops regard for the welfare
not only of its board of directors, but of
the public as well, there will be con-
tinued clamor for stricter control by gov
ernment.

NEW YORK, Dec. 5-Restaurants
in Manhattan, like hotels few years
ago, have reached the saturation
point. Scores are dangling by thin
threads and any number have drop
ped into the bankruptcy abyss. The
craze to open cafes was inspired by
repeal. A cafe looked like money
in the bank.
Many, with idle bank rolls and eye
peeled for investment, believed all
they needed were a crack chef,
good location and a celebrity" as
a front man VOLTA! Crowds came on
the gallop but only for the opening
of free food and drinks and then
back to old haunts or another open
ing.
In the Broadway area of the 40s
more than 200 sizeable restaurants
have opened with flourish and
closed as quickly since the first OF
the year. The proprietors were new
to the business and unfamiliar with
the kitchen side. Their assets were a
wide acquaintance.
utUdClC, lloWCNCis tAs'e
little effect on established places.
Not many had to hang up shutters.
Conducting a restaurant is one OF
the hazardous callings. Without ex-
perience it can dwindle bank ac-
count as quickly as backing play.
I notice the celebrated Claremont
Inn, overlooking the Hudson from
upper Riverside knoll and especial
ly delightful amid the slippery
shadows of dusk, is dark and for
lorn again. Several times it has
bloomed into activity with crack
band, gaily umbrellaed terrace ta-
bles but soon languishes. If it can
not be made popular it should be
preserved for gourmets who still dote
on excellent food, leisurely service
and without crouching madmen
trying to blow the lining out of
slip horns.
Two surprising depression sky
rockets, however, are the spread of
the Longchamps restaurants and
the comeback of the Hotel st.
Regis. The first Longchamps went
hopelessly bankrupt down town and
the heaviest creditor, produce man,
took it over to see what he could
salvage. He "banished" tipping by
adding 10 per cent to the check
and went in for an eye and stomach
appeal with geometrical window dis
plays of vegetables, the pick of his
crop. Each one, there are half a
dozen, has become a success and
the produce man makes more with
them than selling produce.

The above hand appeared in Red
Wing, Minnesota, where one table
bid as follows. South, 1-Heart;
West, 1-Spade; North, 2-Spades
Showing no losers in opponents
suit, and unusual support for part
ner's call, which was untrue); East,
4-Spades; South, 4-No Trumps;
North, 5-Clubs, without having
shown the fact that a two-suiter
was held. At a second table bid
ding went: South, 1-Heart; North,
3-Clubs, which indicated slam pos
sibilities; South 5-Clubs; North, g.
Clubs. This was better, but still
did not show North's two-suiter.
Recall that honors no longer are
scored in duplicate, although they
are in rubbers.
When great quick trick strength
is held a 5-card suit headed by
even a no becomes biddable. On
that account South might endeavor
to show the semi-tWo-suiter by
making an opening bid of 1-Club.
To this, unless West interposes a
spade call, bidding then should go;
North, diamond, to force; South,
1-Heart, also forcing; North, g.
Clubs, still forcing; South, 3-Dia-
monds; North, 5-Clubs; South, s.
Diamonds; North, 7-Clubs.
If partners are Feature showers"
bidding might go: South, 1-Club;
North, 3-Clubs, asking partner to
show Aces; South, 3-Diamonds, to
show first the lowest Ace; North,
4-Clubs, asking for added informa-
ton; South, 4-Hearts; North, d
Spades Gas not shown at once it
cannot mean an Ace, It must mean
voidness); South, 5-Diamonds, to
show the K; North, 7-Clubs, seeing
establishment of diamonds, upon
which to let go South's Hearts.
In case West interposes his spade
call and East jumps that call to
game, no kind of bidding will en-
able North and South to bid high
er than a small slam, without
guessing. The spade call was ex-
cellent.

SNOW. W.REMOVAL ORDERS
ALLEGED TO BE ILLEGAL
Motion Filed to Quash Informa-
tion Against Attorney on
Parking Charge.

Charging that the Commissioners
have no authority under the traffic
act to declare SNOW removal emer-
gency," Attorneys Michael J. Colbert
and F. Joseph Donohue filed motion
before Judge Isaac r. Hit in Trafic
Court today to quash the information
filed against Attorney Charles E. Ford,
who is charged with parking between
2 and 8 am. in violation of the new
regulation prohibiting parking between
those hours.
Traffic tickets were placed on Ford's
car Tuesday and Wednesday nights by
Policeman j. w. Musselman. The au-
tomobile was parked on Sixteenth
street.
Even If the Commissioners have the
authority to declare such an emer-
gency, the motion charges that on
Tuesday night there was no emer-
gency and therefore Ford was violat-
ing no law.
It is also contended that such a
regulation is restrictive legislation
because it does not apply to all people
on all streets, and the Constitution
prohibits "class legislation" The law
yers say this is class legislation.
After filing the motion. Judge Hit
continued the case Indefinitely. An
nouncement of a barring date on the
motion will be made later.

represents a decided change of heart
on the part of Commissioner Hazen

in the control over the school and
library systems. / believe the schools
ought to retain full authority ovel
their teaching staff. I am in favor oi
exempting the schools and library

will have control over the school bud
