Great Delhi Temple
Soon Open to Public

BOMBAY.-After 26 years Of work.
the great temple in New Delhi has
been completed and will open its doors
to the public soon. This vast and
beautiful edif1ce to Christianity has
had the support and contribution of
people throughout the world. George
v of England laid the foundation
stone in 1911, and money came from
England, Australia, the United States
and even Japan.
The designs of the mighty church,
which is dedicated to the Sacred
Heart of Our Lord, are from Sir Ed
win Luthyens, one of the famous
architects of modern times. At the
Inauguration of the great edifice there
were present the apostolic delegate to
India, six bishops and a multitude of
Catholics, Protestants, Mahommedans
and Hindus.

and through them their governments,
have been confused. have been un-
able to estimate the policy of the
American Government, have even
complained that it had no policy.
Directly under the President and
directly responsible to him. the Sec
retary of State should be the sole
policy-making officer of the Govern
ment so far as foreign relations are
concerned. Mr.. Hull has been un-
able to assume this function because
the President has often spoken and
acted without consulting him.
Hull Has Been Handicapped.
For example, at the beginning Of
the trouble between Italy an Ethiopia
the Secretary of State was in con-
slant consultation with the Italian
Ambassador and with the Ethiopian
government through the American
Legation in Adds Ababa urging on
them the devotion of the United
States to the cause of peace and our
deep interest in the sanctity of
treaties. It is easy to imagine the
to say the delight-of
Mussolini when the President an.
nounced to the press that the United
States was not even interested in the
matter. 1t can easily be understood
also, that the Secretary of State
would thereafter hesitate to commit
himself even to the most obvious
truths.
So, also, Mr.. Hull has been handi-
capped by the careless statements of
other officers of the Government. In
the same connection-Italy and Ethi-
opia-his hands were tied by what
the Secretary of the Interior was re-
ported to have said about the export
of oil to Italy. His reciprocal trade
treaties, so far as benefit to the
American export trade in agricultural
commodities Is concerned, have often
been hamstrung by the words and
deeds of the Secretary Of Agriculture

TIME history of diplomacy must
always be in large measure
the history of diplomats.
Il Whatever silly idea the world
and many members Of Congress may
have that ambassadors and ministers
are little more than clerks who 6e-
liver messages sent them from Wash
ington, the facts are quite the OPP
posite. We all know the difference
between the spoken and the written
word. If you have tact you can say
almost anything to friend without
breaking up the friendship; he de-
pends on expression and intonation
quite as much as on the actual words.
If, on the other hand, you are COM
PEELED to write something unpleasant
there is real danger that you will be
misunderstood. This is even more
true in diplomatic nterchanges. The
United States must often rebuke other
nations for one thing or another which
affects us adversely; it must often
protest against discrimination or
what appears to be unfair treatment.
This can be done in manner that
places international friendship on a
firmer foundation, or it can be done
in way to irritate and perhaps cause
lasting rancor. This depends on the
men in the Department OF State ana
their agents in the field.

place in Washington. If we have
thoroughly able man in nation Y,
especially if the representative OF Y
in the United States is ineffective
or appears not quite trustworthy,
most of the work Is done in the capl-
tai Of Y. Something depends also on
whether the individual, usually an
Assistant Secretary of State, who has
general supervision of our relations
with some particular part OF the
world, is a forceful person who wants
to do everything himself. or is good
administrator who realizes that work
must be divided to keep up esprit
de corps and morale, or is timid and
therefore eager to throw the re-
sponsibility for action on others.
American representatives in the field
can very quickly size up the man In
Washington who sends them their
orders. It makes no difference who
signs the instructions; the field men
know where they originated.
President Fountain Head.
1t is true, theoretically, that the
President is the fountain head OF all
American diplomatic action. Actu-
ally, until the present administration
at least, the President has let the
work be done by the human tools at
hand-the Secretary of State and MS
assistants. He has wisely refraineo
from discussing official matters with
foreigners except when the whole
weight Of the United States had TO
be thrown into the scale at once.
When this has happened the Secre-
tary of State has been present az
the interview or has at least care
fully plotted it out with the President
beforehand.
Mr.. Roosevelt has talked OFFICIALLY
with foreigners whenever he pleased
and has often, unfortunately. spoken
lightly words which they have taken

Building Up
Hay Fever
Immunity
Many Theories as to
Cause and
Cure.
BY JAMES w. BARTON, M. D.

BY JAMES w. BARTON, M. d.
HAY fever, as it is called, has not
- much to do with hay or fever,
and can be present at any time Of
the year besides hay time" How
ever. the type that attacks hundreds
of thousands of people comes in the
late Summer and early Fall and re-
mains until the first frost arrives.
Formerly there were many theories
as to the cause of hay fever-the con.
dition of the blood, defects or deform-
tiles of the nose and throat, nervous
disposition and others-but today it
is known that the pollen OF certain
plants-weeds-are the cause.
If this tiny dust which fertilizes
plants, or dust blown by the wind
and is thus in the air we breathe,
why is it that only certain percent
age Of the population is attacked by
hay fever and the rest of us are free?
The next point after discovering
that the pollen caused hay fever was
the discovery that certain individuals
are sensitive" to the pollen just as
others are sensitive to eggs, meat or
other foods and also to aspirin and
other drugs.
The only way hay fever can be
stamped out would be the destruction
of the ragweed and other grasses
which produce the irritating pollen
apparently an impossibility.
Going to a district where there is
Evening star., 1936-06-04

no ragweed Is possible for many suf-
ferers, while others are getting some
relief by spending number Of hours
daily in air-conditioned rooms.
Other victims undergo what is called
the "desensitizing" process, by which
they hope to lose their sensitiveness
to the hay fever pollen. This process
can now be done easily by the family
physician. He first figures out what
particular pollen is floating in the air
in his district about the time that the
hay fever symptoms appear. He then,
by means of a small scratch, tests the
skin of the patient with the kind or
kinds Of pollen he suspects are caus-
ing the symptoms. If large "welt"
or hive appears on the scratched sur
face he knows that this is at least one
type Of pollen to which the patient is
sensitive.
He then begins to give one or two
small injections week Of this pollen
for six or eight weeks previous to the
arrival Of the hay fever season. That
is why the month Of June Is consid-
cred an excellent time to start the in
jections.
Many are helped by one series of
injections, some need them the second
year and some the third.
It must be admittedthat while these
injections help the majority there are
some who obain no relief whatever
from them.

Careful Washing Makes
Bristles Last.

The bristles in any brush must be
good at the start, if they are to last
a long time. But one you have picked
out good brush, it is up to you to
see that the bristles have good, long
life.
No ammonia should ever be used
in the washing water. If the brush
becomes very dirty, a little borax
may be mixed with the water. But
the best way to wash brushes is to
dip them into the water and wash
with toothbrush which has been
dipped in water and covered lightly
with a mild soap or its equivalent.

Farm Boy Finds Wood Lot
I as New Source Of Profit

An awakening interest In farm
forestry is indicated by the increas-
ing number Of III boys who have
forest projects on their home farms,
says E. w. Tinker, assistant chief
forester of the United States Forest
Service. At the national HI camp
in Washington this summer, nine
of the young men had had farm
forestry as a project-nearly double
the usual number. .
It is said conservatively, says
Tinker, that a. good windbreak or
shelterbelt, or grove Of forest trees
adds at least q thousand dollars to
the value Of any farm. Forty-one
states, with Forest Service coop
Grafton, already are furnishing trees
at nominal cost for general farm
planting. ' .

Feeding Brood Sows

Sows that will soon be narrowing
should be put on a light grain ration
in order to have them gaining
weight at the time they are bred,
says c. C.. Culbertson, Iowa State
college. This will tend to increase
the number of pigs in each litter. In
addition to grain, a good protein
supplement of one-haf gallon Of
skimmilk Or buttermilk or one-hah
pound Of tankage per animal per
day should be included in the ration.
II is q good practice to keep a
mineral mixture before the sows
during this period. During preg-
nancy the sows should be fed just
heavy enough to keep them in good
condition.
