Those in Jail, 1t Seems,
Deserve All the Good Luck
To the Editor Of The Star:

10 the EDITOR OF The star:
have never been in the District Jail
and don't want to 60 there. Things,
suppose, according to jail standards, are
fairly pleasant. At least, hope so. Now,
100 years ago Washington's "pent-up
Utica" must have been some dump"
A member of Congress, writing In 1885,
had this to say: 'I found 40 prisoners
herded into cell intended for four. In
the female ward women and children
were naked; there were no beds, stools
or blankets and no one knew where or
how they could be obtained" These
days, no doubt, even the jail houses in
the most backward of States are being
run in a more decent fashion. OF course,
there is still plenty of scope for further
improvement. These local sheriffs are
not exactly experts on the psychoana-
lytical treatment of misfitS.
Now, Mr.. Victor Folke Nelson may well
be considered an authority on the sub
ject. He spent twelve and one-half years
in various penal institutions as a pupil
an advanced student and a full -f1edged
professor. Says he (American Mercury.
March, 1889: '"The prisoner should be
given plenty of fresh air and wholesome
exercise (to be followed by bathing);
variety of appetizing food: diversity of
social, mental and emotional contacts
through more frequent visits, entertaina
ments and intelligently directed intra-
mural activities"
Mr.. Nelson means well, and we wish
him luck. But how about extending all
these benefits to those Of us who so far
have managed to keep out of jail? It
might help us to stay out.

More Needed.

The Star takes grateful pride in the
generous response of its readers to the
appeal for funds in aid of the thousands
of men, women and little children who
have been rendered destitute by the
floods of the past several weeks. Perhaps
never before has money been so cheer
fully given for public cause.
But the occasion also is extraordinary.
Reporters who have been in the devas-
tated areas and seen with their own
experienced eyes the havoc wrought by
the swollen rivers are agreed that the
need for immediate and thoroughgoing
help is poignantly evident. Most of the
sufferers were already poverty stricken;
the floods simply constituted a final
afflliction.
1t follows that a further appeal is i'm
peratively requisite. Yet mere words
are powerless to express any such plea.
All that cold type may do is to hint at
the tragedy. For complete and measur-
ably sympathetic comprehension of the
problem the heart must speak. With
appreciation. then, of the fellow feeling
shown by the donors who thus far have
contributed The Star begs their neigh
bors to be inspired by their example.
A few hundred Years ago every indi-
vidual regularly gave tenth part of his
earnings to the work OF God. Is it too
much to ask if there are not at least
few kindly souls who, right now, when
emergency is so grave, will share to the
same extent for the relief of His sorrow
full children?

Hitler to Negotiate.

Having been shrieking from the hust-
ings that Germany under no circum-
stances would yield to the Locarno pow
ers on remilitarization of the Rhineland,
it was not to be expected that Hitler
would consider any solution of the crisis
until the Reich gives him the vote of
confidence which he has commanded.
In rejecting the terms offered him, the
Fuehrer announces that next Tuesday,
after Sundays elections are over, he will
submit new proposals
That the goose-Stepped German elec-
torate will overwhelmingly validate" the
Rhineland reoccupation is. of course, a
foregone conclusion. 1t is far less GER
tain that Hitlers attitude thenceforward
will be marked by that turbulence which
he has had to maintain on the home
front The mere fact that he is ready
to negotiate manifests his realization
that, successful as mailed fist tactics
have been thus far, there is a limit be-
yond which Great Britain, France, Italy
and Belgium will not permit the Nazis
to go.
Britain's influence is keeping the Ger
mans in bargaining mood British public
opinion, since the outbreak of the crisis,
has reflected distinct Germanophile SYM
pathy, with corresponding lukewarmness
toward France. Hitler is aware of British
reluctance to enter into too far-reaching
pledges of military assistance to France
in the event of complications. He is
therefore likely to avoid any stiff
attitude that might undermine John
Bulls willingness to assure Germany a
square deal, provided the Nazis do not
use bludgeon in the effort to attain it.
Hitler may be expected to exploit the
differences among the Locarno powers.
France does not concur in the British
view that the pending proposals left the
door open for negotiations. Italy de-
mands abolition of League sanctions as
the price of joining in any action to
discipline Germany. In the midst of
these divided counsels, the Germans re-
fuse-for the time being-either to re-
move troops from the Rhineland, per-
NIT any international policing arrange
ment during negotiations, or approve the
World Court as a tribunal to determine
the validity of the Franco-Soviet treaty.
Hitler contends that these proposals are
based on a new discrimination, intoler-
able for great nation" and prolong "the
humiliating subjection imposed upon the
German people AS they violate the
principle Of equality" they are branded
as unacceptable.
These fulminations spring from Hit
ler's political necessities. When he sub
mits his positive proposals" next week
he may sing in a different key. Ger
manys internal conditions, no matter
how impressive a demonstration Of
unity" may be engineered at the polls,
are far from satisfactory. That fact,
plus the knowledge that the Locarno
powers, with possible exception of re-
luctant Italy, are ready to join in a de-
fensive alliance against German aggres-
sion, will make Hitler pause before in
viting that honorable isolation" about
which he is now clustering.

Cape Hatteras Light.

There are persons who collect i'm
pressions of lighthouses. It is the Gus
tom Of these enthusiasts to treasure up
memories Of beacons as other people
save" stamps or coins, old books or old
masters. Robert Louis Stevenson, for
example, never cared to forget certain
seaside towers which his grandfather, an
eminent engineer. had built: and =.
Hopkinson Smith, painter and novelist,
earned jam for his bread both by con-
structing such useful edifices and, on
occasion, by writing about them-he was
. member Of that little army of many
talented geniuses who do all things well.
But it will be the amateurs among
lighthouse appreciators who will sorrow
most over the announcement that the
Government Is abandoning the Cape
Hatteras beacon. The professionals will
understand the necessity and bow to it.

nothing sutfices to stay its steady, re-
lentless invasion. In 1870 the original
tower. raised in John Adams admins
tration, was surrendered. Now "the tall
est, most famous and, some say, the most
beautiful such structure in the United
States" is to be replaced with a plain
steel substitute q further mile from the
shore. And the day may dawn, q CEN
tury hence. when it, too. will be reached
by the sea.
Yet the actual loss is more apparent
than real. The universe, as it happens,
represents q marvellous balance between
plus and minus. What the ocean takes
in one place 1t gives in another. The
principle is demonstrated neatly enough
in Lake Erie, where q certain series of
islands literally is "on the march"-the
current necessarily breaks down the
west side of each separate isle and builds
up the east side. And so it is throughout
the whole tremendous changing scene
and with its human population. Men
and their works come and go, birth and
death and all that lies between are en-
braced by the law of cosmic immortality.
There really is no cause for worry. With
faith and hope, the riddle eventually will
be read.
Meanwhile, how good 1t is that so
lovely and valuable q thing as the light
house at stormy Cape Hatteras is assured
of remembrance!
