Uncommon
SenSe O

Somebody has said that it is not so
remarkable that Columbus discov-
,'" cred America as
Channel it would nave been
Marks if he hadn't dis
covered it. But,
though Columbus never dreamed thai
he had discovered America, or even
that there was an America to dis
cover, the credit for his exploit can
never be taken away from MIN.
Today looking out of a window on
the coast Of Maine l can see dozens
of channel buoyS without which
steamships would find it as difficult
to find their way into the barbor as
it was for the Genoese explorer to
discover San Salvador.
Some of these marks are light
houses, some of them are red or
black spars, some of them are great
iron buoys which blow a warning
whistle with every lift and fall of
the sea.
To maintain this system of warm
ings, which is found at the entrance
of every port on both coasts of Amer
lea, required not only a great deal of
money, but an almost incredible
amount of courage on the part of the
lighthouse builders, and the men
whose business it is to see that the
buoys are always in their place, ready
to give their warnings.
Neither storm nor cold can turn
from their watchful task.
Let single buoy go astray, or a
single lighthouse fail to throw it's
beam across the wave" and every
ship entering or leaving port may be
in danger.
To build up this almost perfect
system has required many years and
a great deal of risk.
But were the marks not carefully
watched and tended, reaching port
either by night or by day would be
a perilous business.

who when asked how he could know
every rock in the entrance to har-
Dor said:
II don't. But l know where the
deep water is"
In our own little voyages to and
fro on our way, we are just as well
supplied with channel marks as are
the ships that move in and out of the
ports along the seaboard.
If we heed these marks we pass in
safety. If we are even just little
careless disaster is sure to follow.

men. The winning delegation will
be virtually unpledged, because it
will vote for Taft only on the first
ballot. Mr.. Borah did not take this
defeat calmly. He gave out a state
ment in Washington accusing the
Republican organization leaders of
manipulating the votes of colored
citizens against him by promising
the passage of federal anti-lynch-
ing legislation which he has op-
posed as unconstitutional
About twenty of Pennsylvania
delegation to the Republican con-
vention were pledged to support the
popular choice of the state, which
turned out to be Mr.. Borah, no 9TH
er name being officially entered at
the April % primary. The delega-
ton, which is uninstructed, has now
voted that those members must keep
their pledge on the first ballot or
until it becomes manifestly impos-
sible for their choice to win. This
action was taken on motion of for
mer Senator David A. Reed, who
will be the state representative on
the platform committee.

solemnly entered into for the pur-
pose of facilitating and regulating,
to reciprocal and common advan-
tage.
At the State department it was
said that the reaffirmation of sup
port of the nine power pact does
not mean that the administration
will abandon its policy of declining
to take the initiative in any attempt
to curb Japan for violations of the
pact. This was attempted by Henry
L. Stimson, secretary of state in the
Hoover administration, with the
gain of nothing but japanese i'll will.
Japanese military strength in
North China south Of the Great
Wall is now said to be fully $4,000
men. There are about $4,000 more
in Manchukuo and still others in
Inner Mongolia.

President of Bolivia Is
COMPELLED to Resign

Jose LUIS TEJADA SORZANO
- was forced to resign the presi-
dency of Bolivia by junta of army
officers and Socialists who staged
a bloodless coup d'etat in La Paz.
Col. German Busch, acting chief of
the general army staff, leader of
the coup, will be at the head of the
government until Col. David Toro,
hero of the war with Paraguay, re-
turns from the Chaco, when TorO
will be installed as president. =
The immediate objective of the
new administration was complete
settlement of general strike which
the officers asserted was imperiling
the country's economic stability.
The labor federation quickly sus-
pended the strike movement, eX-
pressing solidarity with the army
Socialist coup.

Reynolds, and Roberts-joined in
the majority opinion which invali
dated the whole act. Justices Car
dozO, Brandeis, and Stone joined in
dissenting opinion in which they
upheld the act. Chief Justice Hughes
held in a separate opinion that the
act was constitutional with respect
to the marketing provisions but un-
constitutional with respect to the
labor regulations.
The court in the majority Opin-
ion held that there is no authority
in the Constitution for the control
of the coal industry attempted in
the Guffey act. The act was not
valid either under the commerce
clause or the welfare clause. Power
was unlawfully delegated to set up
a coal code similar to the codes of
the invalidated NRA and the regu-
lations establishing working hours
of miners were a violation Of the
fifth amendment prohibiting the
taking of property without due
process of law. Mining, the court
declared, is a local industry, the
state Jurisdiction whereof the fed
eral government has no authority
to invade.
Congress provided that if one part
of the act were held unconstitution-
al other parts should not be affected.
But the majority declined to accept
that arrangement, ruling that the
price fixing provisions were mex
tricably interviewer with the labor
regulations.
Senator Guffey, author of the act,
declined to comment on the opin-
ion, but it was said he was prepar-
ing a substitute measure.
John Lewis, president of the Unit
ed Mine Workers, said that sit is
sad commentary upon our form of
government when every decision of
the Supreme court seems designed

Tugwell's Housing Hit
by Court Decision

EHE resettlement administration
l. headed by Rexford Guy Tug
we'll was declared by the District
of Columbia court of appeals to be
CLEARLY unconstitutional delegation
of power" in a case involving a
model community project in Somer-
set county, New Jersey.
Going beyond the issue before
them, the justices of the Appeals
court called the entire relief ap-
preparations act of 1885 into ques-
ton. The act was invalid and hence
RA was invalid, according to the
court. Legally, however, none of the
rest of the act will be affected by
the decision because the other null
titudinous activities of the New
Deal under the appropriation were
not before the court.
Solicitor Gen. Stanley Reed said
an appeal would be taken to the
Supreme court at once.

A Square Deal

EAIR play and the square deal
are modern Watch-words. We
all like the sound of them, and
we are glad they have come to be
common in the nations vocabu-
larry and the nations thought.
Now the next thing is to trans
late them into the little everyday
acts Of private individuals. They
are just as good for our relations
with our employees as for our re-
latiOns with nations; they are no
more necessary for the dealings
with great trusts than for deal
ings with little distrusts by which
we fail to give our neighbor his
rightful dues.

War Debts Will Be
Defaulted Again

EITHER Great Britain nor
~ France has any intention of
paying the installments on the
American war debt due June 10.
And almost certainly all the other
debtor nations except Finland will
follow the example of the two big
ones and again default. British
Foreign Minister Eden talked about
the debts with Leon Blum, who
probably will be premier of France
soon, but there was no indication
that either one was planning to
make a payment. Blum told the
American club in Paris he hoped
the war debt misunderstanding"
might be cleared up, but he was
just trying to be pleasant to the
people of both America and France
without spending any money.

Americans ask three questions:
"What is the news? Who won the
game? Have you heard the story
about-?" For that reason, the sue
cessful newspaper pays attention
first to the news, told accurately

sport, then on humor. Such dry
things as opinions, editorials, books,

New York police arrested a mid

wore mems shoes, five dresses, one

books showing deposits of $4,000.
This should not discourage wise
charity. Not every old woman, beg
ging, has four extra dessses and
$4,000. But it might well discour-
age thoughtless, indiscriminate CIV
ing, which encourages professional

number is between six and fourteen
millions. Exact figures are wanted.

supplied by MussOlini, with Italians
telling the Ethiopians where and
what to dig. That need not horrify
us, for it is what we have been
doing in this country for long

1t is suggested that every Ameri-
can be compelled to go to school
until twenty-five years of age to
cut down the competition for jobs.
1t might be simpler to keep every
body in school until sixty and then
give everybody a pension of 5000 a
month. What could be simpler than
that?
The average sensible American
starts making living long before
he is twenty-five and would do well
to continue on that basis.

night, spend two business days in
Europe and be at his desk the early
