NUBLIC parks players are as cer-
- tain to have a new champion
of their tournament, starting
one week from SATURDAY, as the
subtraction of one from cne leaves
nothing. Furthermore, the "winnah
and new champeen" will be one who
never has won the title before.
Why? Simply because the removal
from the picture of the 1885 cham
pion, through his affiliation with a
private club. leaves the title as va
cant as the middle of an o, and his
move to the ranks Of club was ac-
companied by score or more of
players who formerly held public parks
championships.
Thus, Referee Winfree E. Johnson
and his committee are confident of
having a record enrolment in the '36
tournament, which bids fair to be
wide-open race to players hitherto
somewhat awed by the presence Of
the best racketers of the city.
And, in order that none may be
confused by thinking any Of the stars

Of society. Benefiting al classes alike,
making no distinctions Of any kind, it
demonstrates In the most notable degree
the highest principles Of democratic
civilization.
Something of basic equity is involved
in the proposition that thought, in COM
mon with material property, merits in
surance against misuse. The elemental
doctrine traces back into remote an
tiquity. Perhaps 1t was in times anterior
to the invention of writing that men hrst
began To recognize the right Of an inno-
vator to q reward for his foresight.
During the period when America was
being settled by its earliest white col
onists the patent law was firmly estab-
lished in British jurisprudence. 1t came
to the New World with the Pilgrims,
and it was remembered by the trainers
Of the Constitution in 1787-the eighth
stipulation of section eight Of article one
empowers Congress ito promote the
progress of science and useful arts by
securing for limited times to authors and
inventors the exclusive rights to their
respective writings and discoveries" The
premier license granted was dated July
81, 1790; bore the signatures of both
Washington and Jefferson, was issued to
Samuel Hopkins of Vermont, and con-
cerned the homely business of making
soap.
But the romance Of the Patent ONCE
is being retold elsewhere. All that need
be stressed in this place and this time
is the essential fact of its vast construc-
tive influence upon the cultural evolu-
ton of the people. Summed up in the
briefest form, 1t amounts to q common
endowment Brains have been reason
ably safe under the Star-Spangled
Banner. The conscience of the Nation
has been organized to provide their de-
fense. In return, they have contributed
to peace, prosperity and progress. A
long line of commissioners of patents and
thousands Of examiners and clerks are
entitled to a generous share Of the credit.
The centenary commemoration is i'm
portant because 1t furnishes an oppor-
tunity for expression of gratitude to all

Americans in Spain.

Because of increasing danger to life
in Madrid the State Department has
acted wisely in directing the United
States charge d'affaires Third Secre-
tary Wendelin, to consider Immediately
the desirability of closing the embassy
and proceeding, with his staff, to a safer
place, along with the American nation
ais who have taken refuge at the en-
bassy since the battle for Madrid
assumed menacing phase. Consul
General Perkins at Barcelona also has
the departments authorization to aban-
don his post and to request American
naval vessels now within access of the
east coast to evacuate him, his staff and
other American citizens. With Gen.
Francois threat to destroy the port as
a means of cutting of the governments
supplies, Americans in Barcelona find
themselves in almost as much peril as
the residents of beleaguered Madrid
Prompt word from Messrs. Wendelin
and Perkins is awaited, indicating to
what extent they regard it necessary to
exercise the discretionary authority now
given them. Early evacuation of both
Madrid and Barcelona by Americans
would seem to be desirable. While Gen.
Franco is understood to have given
orders that the premises of foreign gov
ernments shall be respected by insurgent
forces, Incidents" accidental or other
wise, are easily within the realm Of
possibilities amid the turmoil into which
all Spain has been plunged. Should, in
consequence of some mishap, American
citizens be injured or killed, or Amer
ican official property violated, the United
States might automatically find itself
embroiled with one Of the Spanish fight
ing factions, If not with some foreign
government that any day may inter-
vene in the Fascist Communist tug of
war. This country is not Influenced to

siderations. 1t is concerned exclusively

The United States diplomatic and
consular staff in Spain, especially
career" members of the foreign service,
have given splendid account of them
selves throughout the revolution. They
have stuck gallantly to their posts under
trying and dangerous conditions. They
now seek safety elsewhere. They can
do so without subjecting themselves to
the slightest suspicion of scuttling. Each
and all have conducted themselves in q
manner that brings new credit to the
service with which they are identified.

Music Of the Day.


In days of old such songs we heard
AS Listen to the Mocking Bird"
Light melodies their magic lent
To grace some tender sentiment.
And when they sought lively key
They warbled Dixie" with great glee.
Alas! Their tastes were very slow
Back in the days Of long ago.
But now such jazzy rhymes they sing
That grandma to her chair will cling
And say, in accents far from bland,
She hopes she does not understand!
Some day when fashion brings once more
The custom of those days Of yore,
She may revive the simple charm
OF songs that pleased and meant no
harm.

Permanent Trade Program.

Secretary of State Hull has crowned
himself with achievement in reopening
world trade channels through reciprocal
trade agreements; his program in the
emergency proved the proper remedy,
now 1t remains in order to make per-
manent the gains realized to convert
the transitory structure Of executive
agreements into permanent edifce in
American foreign policy based on
treaties.
The executive agreement is an ex-
tremely useful device for attainment Of
immediate objectives quickly in interna-
tional relations when, because of the
vagaries Of politics, treaties, with the re-
quirement that they receive the advice
and consent" of the Senate, might run
into insurmountable obstacles either in
the Foreign Relations Committee or in
the Senate itself. The Constitution gives
the President almost exclusive control
of foreign relations, but delegates to the
Senate certain confirmational functions
with respect to treaties and appointment
of oficials which clearly reveal the in
tention Of the Nations founders to per-
NIT the Senate to share power over the
bases Of American foreign policy. Now
that the emergency In international
trade Is well On the way to elimination,
