Dean Launches War
On Wedding Confetti

BOOKING, Essex, England (P)-
The dean of Booking, the Rev. Edgar
Rogers, is waging war against con-
fetti at weddings.
Before a wedding a deposit of
5 shillings must be paid" he said.
"If no confetti Is thrown the deposit
will be returned; If confetti is thrown,
then so much of the deposit will be
used as will pay for the tidying Of
the church yard.

mittee, the reserve in 1880 will ap-
proximate 100000, and right
there the dispute starts.
Opponents point out that a reserve
of this size would top by about
$4,000, 100000 the present public debt.
and that the program would seem to
indicate the eventual transfer to the
old-age reserve account Of the entire
Federal debt and then further in
vestment in some as yet undesignated
securities.
This, it Is maintained, not only
would not allow retirement of the
public debt, but actually would have
tendency to increase it. 1t raises
the further question as to what di-
rection banks and other institutions
would have to look to replace in their
portfolios the Federal securities upon
which they have depended for pur-
poses of liquidity.
The Committee on Economic Sc
curity which aided in drafting the
Social Security Act, and some OF
whose members are in the Advisory
Council, recognized the practical po-
litical hazards" of the reserve plan,
and recommended a current cost sys-
tenn, in which outgo would be bal
anced by taxes, backed by a reserve
of about SIS 1000, 100000. Some thought
even this figure would be too high,
but the whole idea was scrapped
when Secretary of the Treasury Nor
genthau insisted on the mounting
reserve principle.
Likened to U. S. Retirement Fund.
Pertinent criticism of the reserve
has come from the Chamber of Com
merce of the United States, which
recalls the treatment accorded the
retirement fund for Federal employees,
and looks to see the old-age benefits
money handled the same way, mas
much as the tax collections do not
60 directly to an earmarked fund, but
into the general revenues of the Gov
eminent from which they later must
be appropriated by Congress.
Should the requirements remain
unchanged" special committee
from the Chamber said, "either one
of two contingencies probably would
occur. Notwithstanding tax collec-
tions through contributions for many
years after the inception of the plan
in amounts greatly exceeding current
benefit disbursements, Congress may
not make annual appropriations to
the reserve fund in the amounts re-
quired by actuarial computations.
This would mean in effect that sub
stantial amounts collected in special
taxes on employers and employees

Nv GASTON NERVAL.

TN ACCEPTING the mediation of
the United States, Costa Rica and
Venezuela in their long-standing
4 territorial dispute, the Central
American republics of Honduras and
Nicaragua have given one more proof
of the ascendancy of peaceful diplo-
matte methods in the Western Hemi-
sphere.
1t was not long ago that the ar
bitral award of Chief Justice Hughes
ended the boundary controversy be-
tween Honduras and another of her
neighbors, Guatemala. and only two
years ago Bolivia and Paraguay sub
mitted their Chaco dispute to the
mediation of six American Govern
ments and eventual arbitration by the
Court of International Justice at The
Hague. Two other Southern republics,
Peru and Ecuador, have also agreed to
submit their territorial differences to
arbitration by the President of the
United States.
In spite of temporary setbacks and
isolated instances of uncontrolled ma
tionalism which have interrupted the
peace of the New World at long inter-
walls, it must be admitted that nowhere
on earth has there been a more con-
slant or sincere advocacy of the
methods of mediation and arbitration
for the solution Of international con-
troversies.
Pioneering Began in 1926.
It is not necessary to mention the
pioneering attempts made at the Bo-
livarian Congress of 1925 at Panama
or those of 1848. 1861, 1864. 1888, ETC.,

nations participated.

ington in 1889 its outstanding result
was the adoption of resolution pro-
claiming arbitration as "a principle

alton and arbitration were to be obliga-
tory in all disputes over diplomatic
and consular immunities, boundary
lines, ihdemnities. freedom of naviga-
tion, Interpretation and execution of
treaties and all other controversies not
affecting the independence of one Of
the parties.
Ever since that time all the sue
ceeding Pan-American Conferences
and all the American Government, in
dividually, have reiterated their sup
port of mediation and arbitration, the
only difficulty being in gradually over
coming their own exceptions and reser-
vations, making the principle ever
more comprehensive and less restrict

1902 adopted mediation and arbitra-

Parental Responsibility

To the Editor of The Star:
For the purpose of taxation. the Dis
trlct OF Columbia cannot be placed in
the same category as the several States
and Territories
Inc States and Territories have their
own governments duly elected by their
citizens. and their legislative bodies i'm
pose taxes for the upkeep of same.
Ihe District of Columbia is the seat
OF the Federal Government, which rep
resents the aforesaid States and Terri
tories, and has no right of franchise.
It's affairs are carried on by a civil
government appointed by the Federal
Government. which reserves to itself the
enactment of legislation and the imposi-
tion Of taxes
The right of Congress to tax the citi-
zens Of the District is .unimpeachable
up to certain point. That point is
reached when the taxes imposed begin
to work hardships on the taxpayers, It
tnen becomes the duty of the Federal
Government to appropriate from the
Federal Treasury enough money to make
up any deficiency in operating expenses
AS the parent is responsible for the
child until the child becomes of age
so is the Federal Government responsible
for the District; the only difference
being the District can never attain that
status until 1t obtains the right to vote,
In making appropriations enough

BrOadcasting Congress.

There is a growing feeling throughout
the country in behalf of radio broad
casting of congressional debates Mil
lions of citizens would listen to the cur
rent discussion of President Roosevelt S
plan for the reform" of the Federal
Judiciary, if it were put on the air The
major networks, almost certainly, would
be glad to cooperate. And the ad-
vantage to the Nation is too notably OBJ
vious to require argument.
Some day the Government may decide
to build and operate its own radio sta
ton. The suggestion has been offered
repeatedly, and there is considerable
body of opinion favorable to it. Perhaps
the only objection worthy of considera-
ton is that which expresses natural
fear of misuse of such facilities-the
danger that under partisan manage
ment, the ether might be filled with one
sided propaganda.
But several answers are available for
that theory of disapproval. In the first
place, Congress could stipulate that the
station be as free forum as the Capitol
Itself; it could protect the public in
terest by legislative enactment. Second

Japan at Peiping,

Ever since their military operations
IN Manchuria and adjacent territory on
ooth sides of the Great Wall, the, jap
anese have been suspected of systematic
designs to extend their sphere of influ-
ence to Peiping, capital of the old en-
plre. Under the Boxer agreements of
1901, Japan and the western powers
have the right to maintain Embassy and
Legation guards there, as well as to pro-
tect the railroad route to the sea at
1lentSin. Under cover of the more re-
cent pact with the Hopei -Chahar au-
tonomous provincial government, the
japanese have been steadily seeking to
widen their authority throughout North
China. According to Chinese statements,
Nlppons garrison in the Peiping area
has risen to 10000 men. Obviously its
purpose is to lend something more than
moral support to Tokios recurrent pres
sure for political military and economic
concessions from Nanking-a policy
which has met with progressively stiff
tened resistance in that quarter.
Last Thursday Japanese forces west
OF Pelplng came into conflict with
Chlnese troops at the celebrated Marco
Polo Bridge near the Peiping- -Hankow
Railroad. AS usual, on the occasion of
recurrent Sino-Japanese 'incidents. ="
each SIDE claims that the other started
the shooting, which resulted in a minor
number Of casualties. The immediate
controversy has been settled by with
drawal of both Japanese and Chinese
troops from the vicinity of the clash,
The affair is far from finally closed, be-
cause Japan is demanding Preparations"
Tor her killed and wounded and guaran-
tees against similar occurrences in fu-
ture. Evidently considering that the sit
uation bristles with danger, Toxic has
ordered naval forces in Chinese waters
to stand by for emergencies One of the
decidedly grave possibilities is that Jap
anese militarists may seek to magnify
the Marco Polo skirmish into another
Mukden.
There is, Of course, no doubt of Japan's
desire to consolidate her position in
North China by compelling Nanking to
yield to periodical demands" looking to
consummation of that objective. The re-
tention of considerable military forces
near Peiping-those concerned in this
weeks imbroglio ostensibly were en-
gagged in might maneuvers"-strongly
suggests that Japan intends some time
to put them to practical use. 1t was
only few days ago that the Amur River
episode disclosed Soviet Russia disin-
clined to push matters with Japan to a
critical point. The suggestion now
arises that Toxic war lords may think
the moment favorable for pushing the
penetration of North China and provok-
ing incidents that would give it a
semblance of justification, while also
providing some test of Markings readi-
ness or ability to put up a fight.
