4 The motive behind this bill is
clearly not the improvement of the
breed Of horses for speed. Nor is it
the promotion of horse racing as a
sport. 1t appears to be primarily a
mechanized gambling scheme on a

Let the civilized governments
which are backed by 80 per cent of
the people of the world ostracize
Japan" he said in his interview
with the United Press. Let them
refuse to have any dealings with
the country. Let them refuse to
continue any commercial or credit
relations with Japan, and there
need not be single shot fired.
Such action is more powerful
than the army or navy of the
United States. No government can
conduct war under such ostracism. 4"
Pittman contended no changes
are necessary in the present neu-
tality act. He believed the decision
of the supreme court in the South
American arms embargo case shows
that the president has the power
as chief executive and commander
in-chief of the army and navy to
stop commercial and financial in
tercourse with Japan IF in his
sound judgment based upon in
disputable facts he holds that such
action is essential to the conserva-
~tion of the peace of our country and
the protection of the lives and lib
erty of Our citizens"
President Roosevelt has been
very patient and has made every
diplomatic effort to bring the Japa-
neSe military government to aban-
don its unlawful, immoral and bru-
tai conduct in China he remark
ed.
"All diplomatic efforts have fail
ed The continued conduct of the
japanese military government has
concluSively proved to the world
that its excuses to the effect that
they have been only protecting

Signatories.
Great Britain is more directly

Is the United States or any other
country Great Britain backed down
in 1882 and left our government out
on a limb" he stated.
Our government can no longer
refrain from asserting the facts
and publicly condemning Japan
Our government however, has gone
as far as it can until the other
governments that are responsible
come out of the brush and assume
their part of the responsibilities.

man of the powerful senate foreign
affairs committee said tonight.
1T is up to Great Britain and
the other signatories of the nine

territorial integrity to respond m-
equivocally to President Roosevelt S
challenge" Pittman declared
The president has suggested the
method of compelling Japan to de-
siSt from its "barbarous warfare of
determination, the senate presi-
dent pro tenn explained, by holding
that Japan is disseminating war dis
ease which may involve the rest of
the world and recommending that
Japan should be quarantined "as
every civilized community quaran-
tines against contagious disease"
The neutrality act never was in
tended to meet such contagion, -
he continued. 1T was intended sole
ly to eliminate certain causes that
might lead us into a foreign war.
What is required now is quaran-
tine to prevent spread of the war
disease and stamp it out"
War is not necessary to accom-
plish this end, Pittman predicted.
The quarantine would be success
full in itself in stopping the Japa-
nese invasion of China within 80
days" he added

that the United States purchases

You can never depend on poetry to

fic You can no more accept Long
fellows Paul Revere's Ride literally
than YOU can Whittier's lines which
made Barbara Frietsche heroine.
Whittier based this latter poem on
an incident that is supposed to have
happened Is years ago.
On the morning of Sept. 10, 1862, in
Frederick, Md.,-where lived 9O-year-
old Mrs. barbara Hauer Frietsche-a
U. S. flag was displayed by a Mrs.
Mary Quantrell, and tradition has it
that Confederate soldier attempted
to take it away from her, contrary to
orders of his superiors that no civil
ians should be molested.
In the contemporary feelings, the in
cident was magnified out of all pro-
portion to fact, and Mrs. Quantrell
was confused with Dame Frietsche.
Stonewall Jackson could not possibly
have uttered the classic sentiments
put into his mouth by Whittier. He
didn't accompany his command
through Frederick that day!

Louisburg, Sept. 10-The new head
of the Boys Industrial Arts Depart
ment at Louisburg College will be
Clarence w. Mulligan, who comes here
directly from Cornell University where
for the past year and summer he has
done special work in general carpen-
try, cabinet making, general electri-
city, steam fitting and agriculture.
Prof. Mulligan also acts as superin-
tcndent of grounds and buildings and
in both of his capacities he will have
much to do with the self help program
and the industrial arts program, both
new at the College. He succeeds T. M.
Lookard, head of the Department for
the past year.
One of the very first colleges in
the State, if not the very first of the
smaller colleges to inaugurate an in
dustrial arts program, the department
will be considerably expanded during
the coming year. A new building is
planned; and a department for young
women will be added
Prof. Mulligan also received his ed
ucation at Ashbury College, Kentucky
He is native of Burdett, New York.
