Where Was the "Fraud?"

After brief sojourn on the lofty peaks
ut Elysium, whittier they were waited
on the breezes of sublime convention
oratory, it is something of jolt to
the American people to be set down
again among such mundane things as
cancellation Of airmail contracts. But,
bumps or no bumps, that is where at
tention is now diverted by Attorney
General Cummings labored epistle to
his colleague, the Postmaster General,
informing him solemnly that "in the
exercise of sound discretion the air
mail SUITS may be compromised"
Compromise is reached in five OF the
fifteen suits, brought against the United
States by the airmail companies whose
Government contracts were cancelled
overnight by Mr.. Farley on the ground
Of fraud.
Cancellation of the airmail contracts,
following the hot pursuit OF wickedness
by Senator Blacks investigating COM
mittee, came on a cold day in February
of 1894. Followed the calamitous at

where, II 1t could be carried into effect,
the traffic problem would be solved
overnight.
Going slow in the garden means at
tending to first things first, notably
trees, lawn and shrubbery.
So often the beginner thinks that Just
because the builder has put in q foun-
dation planting at the front Of the
house, he has no more need for thought
In the matter of evergreens and shrubs.
The builder has planned, or let us
hope he has, for the house, but usually
not so much so for the garden.
When the real estate man steps out,
the owner must step in, and he is a
wise owner who thinks first Of trees
and their need, but not their over
doing; Of good and varied shrubs, Of a
lawn which is green, and of the value
of perennials in his borders, as well as
a few annual flowers to make things
bright the first season.
Let the beginner realize that two or
three years, with some study and much
experimentation, will change his own
views a great deal. This does not
mean that he should not like what he
likes, or that he should run to books
and magazines or older gardeners every
time q decision Is needed. He should
stand on his own feet, but at the
same time he could solve many of his
problems by the simple expedient OF
taking his time, and permitting time,
the great teacher, to modify and better
his own taste.
The beginner who will heed this
simple but elaborate wisdom-it is both
will see shortly that the horticultural
specimen which requires the longest
time to grow to wit, the tree, is pre-
cisely the thing which should be thought
about first, and not last. Many a
householder has gardened and managed
home for 20 years before he ever gave
trees a thought, and then it was too
late or was it? Is 1t ever too late for
trees? Undoubtedly they mostly re-
quire a long time to grow, and life is
short and art is long, and so is horti-
culture.

road warning, gives place to Think,
plan and plant" in gardening.
All too often the beginning amateur
gardener reverses the order. He plants
first, plans little, in succeeding years,
but sometimes does not think at all.
And this Is too bad, for thinking, In
some form or other, is the beginning
and end of garden wisdom. Not the
over elaborated and meticulous think
ing which would make ledger out OF
q back yard. but the true sort which
puts first things first, and lets the re-
mainder pull up behind, as they should.

Roses, Of course.

This is q wonderful tribute to a
wonderful flower, but it really isn't
thinking, in garden sense.
There is no flower more difficult to
raise we'll, under average garden condi-
tions, and certainly none which more
deserves to be properly grown. Notice
we say "well-raised," not just raised,
or grown.
Any one can raise roses, but it takes

There is no real beginning in a

that 1t might seem that every one would
keep it in mind, but the plain fact is
that very few do keep it in mind, but
most start off on the tangent of roses

For a Nazi Danzig.

Troubles of the League of Nations
seem endless. At the very moment the
perturbed Geneva powers are assembling
to liquidate the Italian sanctions fiasco,
fresh complications confront them in
Eastern Europe. Out of a clear sky
the Nazis of the free city of Danzig,
which has been under League super
vision since 1920, have taken action
smacking of a declaration Of inde-
pendence. The Hitlerite leader pro-
claims in a public manifesto that the
League has become "superfluous' IN
Danzig affairs, particularly with refer
ence to the city's relations with Poland.
Coincident with circulation of the mani
festo in Germany, the Reich govern
ment, through one of its official mouth
pieces, openly supports the anti-League
move. "A state with many centuries
of old traditions and culture such as
Danzig," the Berlin foreign Office organ
asserts, docs not need a governor or
governess." Then follows a veiled warm

its hands off the territory.
Any attempt to set up Nazi Dictator
ship in Danzig would directly violate
the treaty of Versailles and require
prompt League action. Having resorted
to rearmament and to remilitarization
Of the Rhineland in defiance of the
peace pact, Berlin is apparently now
ready to risk yet another abridgement
of that sadly shattered document. The
Germans, having also observed League
futility in connection with Italian ag-
gression against Ethiopia, are altogether
unlikely to be curbed by any action
at Geneva from execution of their long
cherished purpose to restore Danzig to
German sovereignty. Evidently the
Nazis do not even fear that Poland will
obstruct their plans. Danzig was con-
verted into a free city" at Versailles
as a compromise between the Poles de-
mand for sea outlet for their shipping
and the peace negotiators fears of
placing an essentially German popula-
tion under another nations control.
Since then the Poles have established
port of their own at the head of
the corridor and, in addition. have q
ten-year understanding with Hitler,
safeguarding them from any German
designs on the corridor, which drives
wedge between the Reichs EASTERN
most provinces.
The League high commissions in Dan
zig retain only a shadow of power
Nazi agitation among the preponder-
antly Teutonic population has resulted
in progressive German ascendancy. The
opposition of the Polish minority is
wholly Intellectual. If Warsaw now fails
to act and the League reveals inability
or unwillingness to thwart Nazi am
bitions, Danzig sooner or later is destined
to 60 the way Of the Saar-back to
Germany. That would represent the
latest, though probably not the last, of
Hitler's efforts to undo the "injustices"
inflicted upon the Reich by the "victors"
Of Versailles. Also it would drive one
more nail in the coffin of the League.

WASHINGTON OBSERVATIONS
BY FREDERIC VILLIAM VILE.

Maryland. Senator Clark of Missouri
and Assistant Attorney General John
Dickinson. If undiluted New Dealism
is extant four years hence, it's even
suggested that Secretary Wallace, w. p.
A. Boss Harry Hopkins or Rural Re
settlement Administrator Rex Tugwell
might have look-in for Democratic
presidential honors.
Senator Joe Guffey of PENNSYLVANIA
emerges laurel-crowned from the
Democratic national convulsion at
Philadelphia. He was engineer in
chief of the plan to take the convention
to the Quaker City, promising in re-
turn not only rip-roaring good time
for all concerned but also delivery
of Pennsylvania 38 electoral votes in
the Roosevelt column in November. If
that happens Guffey will mount into
the highest bracket of Democratic lead
ers, and have claim to position within
the party comparable to those held in
the G. o. P. by the legendary Keystone
bosses. Matt Quay and Boies Penrose
The Pittsburgher's acknowledged ambi-
ton Is to construct Democratic organi-
zation in Penn State which will be the
peer Of anything the State has ever
known in the way of a political machine.
Guffey's supreme goal is said to be the
nomination of Gov. Earle for the presi-
dency. Earle was given many oppor-
tunities at Philadelphia last week for
a national build-up. He made a gen.
orally favorable impression on Demo-
cratic brethren from the provinces.
While William Allen White the sage
of Emporia, was active at Philadelphia
as a newspaper correspondent, he's sure
to have served Gov. Landon effectively
there as holder Of a watching and listen
ing brief. AS the Kansan's unofficial
chief scout on the late New Deal battle
front, White will be able to supply the
Republican standard bearer, his long
time personal friend, with an authentic
first-hand account Of the ins and outs
of the Democratic conclave, from both
personal and political angles, and give
the Governor many a hunch for use
on the hustings this Summer and Fall
Mr. White avows he will be active dur
ing the campaign only as a reporter.
but hardly anybody is closer to Landon
than he. and his seasoned counsel
commands great respect. The editor OF
the Emporia Gazette would be one Of
the powers behind a Landon White
House throne.
Diplomatic service at Washington is
frequently the forerunner of high Gov
eminent honors at home for Latin
American diplomats. In several in
stances during recent years they have
retired as ENJOYS to Washington In
order to become foreign ministers or
presidents of their countries. The latest
Latin American statesman to be re-
called from the United States is DIR.
Enrique Finot, Minister OF Bolivia. who
has been appointed minister OF foreign
affairs at La Paz. Still in his early
40s, DIR. Finot was prominent in the
negotiations. both at Washington and
Geneva. which finally led to settle
ment of Bolivias war with Paraguay
over the Gran Chaco. DIR. Finot, who
has been on duty here since December,
1892. will be the only civilian In the
military cabinet of the provisional gov
ernment which came into power after
the political upheaval in Bolivia last
month.

"a Few

The phrase "a few" Is somewhat in
definite Senator Alben w. Barkley per-
haps meant to be not too explicit when,
in his keynote speech at Philadelphia, he
confessed that he was aware of the fact
that "a few little pigs" had been done
to death by the New Deal in its A. A. A.
program Of planned scarcity" He also
was not over-anxious to be specific about
cotton. Yet he did SO far yield to the
critical opposition as to admit that "a
few rows" had been plowed under.
But records are available to correct any
msapprehension the public might enter
tain. The Roosevelt administration has
been measurably mindful Of the his
torical importance of statistics. Hence,
each day Of the A. A. A. massacre was
carefully charted in terms OF destruc-
ton. Porcine totals show the elm
ination of 5,14O, ,s84 so-called light" pigs,
weighing 80 pounds or less each; 1888, ,73S
heavy" pigs weighing over 80 pounds
each. and 222,14 soWs-altogether ap-
proximately one e-tenth of the baconian
population OF the United States.
AS for cotton, official reports testify
to the destruction of 100000 acres in
1888 alone. Data for 1884, 1888 ard 1896
are still in process of compilation.
To the normal mind. then, "a few
would signify quite lot. But Senator
Barley has caught the contagion OF

In case of approval would the President
be permitted to allot $4,000, 900 for con-
tinuing work, means an indefinite delay
in completion of project that will ulti-
mately cost between one hundred and
forty-two and one hundred and sixty
million dollars
In the meantime, here is the descrip-
tion of the work so far undertaken, now
to be abandoned, as given by Represent
ative Green of Florida:
"Six thousand men are employed di-
rectly on the job. Seventeen million
cubic yards of earth have been excavated.
The people of that portion of the State
of Florida traversed by the canal have
bonded their property for nearly s2,OO0,-
900 and have purchased and contributed
:. to the Federal Government the right of
way, comprising many thousands of
acres of land. An excavation has been
opened across the central portion of the
State nearly sixteen miles long, four
hundred feet deep and thirty feet wide.
A great bridge, with its piers rising forty
feet into the air, is in course of con-
struction."
The point was made, in the rather
lackadaisicaI debate on the canal prof.
ect, that the canal has been q boon to
Florida relief workers. 1t undoubtedly
has. But IL employment was the only
