MEMORY OF WAR
NEVER LASTING
Horror Has Small Effect on
New Generations.

1t is not so long since war was
"Outlawed" and the outlaw was Os-
TRACKED. Even that mild and gentle
child named Neutrality was not
mentioned in polite or academic So
ciety. The slogan was not neutrality
In thought, but peace in thought.
Now the outlaw is found not to be
dead, but lurking in the woods, and
1t is discovered that all nations bor-
der on the same forest. The youth
and some of their elders contemplate
the future possibility of war by for
swearing any participation in it
when it comes. Veterans organiza
lions advocate legislation now to
take the profit out of war-when it
comes. Scholars and students of
peace begin to re-examine the utility
of our traditional neutrality policy
as device for keeping us out of
war-when 1t comes.
Through it all drones the refrain
of those who picture the horrors of
the next Wharf.-The wiping out of
cities from the air; newer and more
frightful gases; death rays. The
same song was sung before 1914
and long, long before. 1t has never
deferred nations from war, because
1t acts, If at all, on the individual
and not on the mass, not on the ma
ton, not on the government.
Even for the individual it is too
overwhelming and too remote to be
grasped except by those in whom it
touches and torments the chords of
personal memory. Soon new crop
has ripened. Those impersonal things
known as governments respond more
readily to the stern high calls of ma
tional honor and prestige. They
seek, often sincerely, the welfare of
their country. 1t is both material
and spiritual welfare. Would
either be served by war today or on
a near tomorrow?-Philip G. Jessup,
in Current History. -ee...,,4a~'

ton will back up the decision Of the
Supreme Court invalidating N. r. A"
An accident of date lifted the State
meeting into the national spotlight.
1t is the first major meeting OF in
trinSiCally political nature since the
Supreme Court invalidated N. r. A.

from the finding might be carried to
the people. Delegations and repre-
SentatiyeS from New Mexico, Okla

were expected to attend.
Elliott Roosevelt, resident of Fort
Worth and vice president of the

Department today TO obtain funds for
construction of a model ship DaSln

tempt to get the money either from
Congress or from the Public Works
Administration.
The application filed today points
out that the only present facilities in
the old model basin in the Washing

duct satisfactory experiments and
tests on ship models. The projects

for design of merchant vessels to
improve mold lines and decrease fuel
consumption and operating expenses.
Similar work in England has saved

The demands" served TO recall the
famous "2l demands which Japan
served on China in 1915, while the
attention Of the rest of the world
powers was occupied by the World
War. Some of them were later modi-
f1ed and others accepted. In the post

OF the other world powers.
Records showing that the same mill
tary movement began exactly a year
ago seemed to bear out the armys
contention that the sailing of the
transports from Osaka and Moii were
not connected with the crisis. 1t also
was pointed out that the Emperors
sanction for the movement was OBJ
tained three weeks ago.
1t was admitted, however, that be-
tween the arrival of the requirements
and the departure of the troops whose
time has expired-a departure which
possibly will be delayed in view of the
tension-Japan's garrisons in Tientsin,
Pelplng, TangShan and LWanchoW will
be expanded about SO per cent. This,
however, is different matter from
the Chinese reports that Japans forces
IN North China are tripled.
In any case, military authorities
we're agreed that if Japan decides to
use 1orce. the small command under
Lieut.. Gen. Yoshijiro Umezu, the
commander Of the japanese garrison
III North China, would not deliver the
main blow. Umezu's garrison is nor
mally less than 1000 men and neu-
tral authorities said evidence was
lacking that there would be any con-
siderable expansion of it until the
arrival OF today'S requirements.

tion thus far for the preparation of

that the Spearhead would be the Jap
snese garrison in Jehol while, in the
event of necessity, Gen. Minami would
be able to throw the majority of his
command, totalling close to 10000 men
and shortly to be increased by the
arrival of the 9Th Division from
