said the other day at a press
that Americans who
stay in China must stay at their
own risk. The American Cham
Der of Commerce in Shanghai
doesn't think so, and columnist
David Lawrence is duly Mortified.
But most Americans living at
home will agree that the Presi-
dent has the right idea, and
wont care much about the way
he expressed it. If there is one
paramount desire and determine
ton in the minds of the Ameri-
can people today it is to keep out
of European and Asiatic wars.
And much as they sympathize
with their unlucky patriots they
are resolved on one thing: to let
no more American lives be sac
rificed unnecessarily. Obviously
China will be a battle-ground for
many months to come, and to re-
main there by deliberate choice
and expect protection is to ask
more of ones country than is fair
or reasonable.

The Stage Was Set

The more we hear of what has
gone on at this years Nazi party
rally at Nurnberg, the more we
wonder that an American diplo-
mat is officially accredited to rep
resent this country there.
1t is plain by now that one pur-
pose of virtually forcing the at
tendance of foreign diplomatic
representatives was to provide a
setting for the Fuehrer's adj
dress. In this, he invited the
democratic world to forsake its
ideals in order to form, with Ger
many and Italy, an efficient front
against communism. 1t must
have appealed to him that his
German public, bemused as it is
by censorship, still might find
this astonishing invitation more
plausible if assured, through the
attendance of diplomats, that the
democratic world at least was
listening.
At any rate, we can think of no
better explanation for the fact
that this years invitations to the
rally came directly from the
Fuehrer himself through the for
eign office. Hitherto, Berlin dip
lomats have received their invita-
tions less officially from the Nazi
party and have disregarded them.
This year, it was felt, at Wash
ington, as well as at London and
Paris, that non-attendance might
be construed as an afford to the
German government.
What is done is done, of course
and possibly the incident at worst
is of no vast Importance. Never
theless, we can not but regret the
lack of back bone that permitted
an American diplomat to be made
use of as a stage prop in a dem
onstration designed as a slur at
democracy.
Affront or no affront, it would
have served democratic ideals if
the invitation had been declined,
with the observation-unex
tionable under democratic philos-
ophy-that a political party rally
is just that and no more, and no
place for a diplomat.

OYSTER DEALERS
GETTING NOTICES
and State Regu-
lations to be Enforced
This Season

In preparation for the oyster
season, notices have been sent
out from the State Department of
Health, to packers and others en-
gagged in the oyster business in
Maryland, calling their attention
to requirements which must be
met in order that their products
may conform to State and FEEDER
al regulations, and their estab-
lishments may be duly certified.
In explanation, DR.. r. H. Riley.
director of the State Department
of Health, said that the sanitary
supervision of the oyster industry
is under the charge Of the Bureau
Of Food an Drugs. f'After due in
spection by representatives of
that Bureau" DR.. Riley continued
certificates are issued by the
State Department of Health to
concerns that are equipped and
operated in compliance with
State and Federal regulations.
"The certificates must be re.
newed annually. They mayI be
withdrawn at any time for failure
to conform to the sanitary re-
quirements. Early application for
renewal is requested, in order
that inspections may be made
without avoidable delay. Ap-
proximately $50 firms met the
requirements and were granted
certificates during the season Of
1857"
Attention of those who repack
oysters was also directed to the
need for more satisfactory tyne
OF returnable container. The use
OF standard milk can and of
other cans of sanitary construc-
ton is permissible. If returnable
cans are used, they must be
washed and then sterilized with
live steam. The cleaned cans
must be stored in such a way
that they will not be contaminat-
ed.

with live captive, who might as
easily be dead or hopelessly mu-
tilated?
The answer, as war is waged
these days, is self-evident. If
shells are to be impregnated with
anything, the substance more
likely will be a lethal poison.
And that prospect itself seems
less rhetorical than actual, as one
remembers what has happened
meanwhile to the humane rules of
war projected by the pre-war
Hague conferences.
War was most humane, to call
it that, in the days of chivalry
when it had some of the aspects
of a sport. Since then, it has
grown more serious and more
and more brutal. Short of exter-
mination, there seems to be no
way of reversing that trend, so
tragic in its meaning to human
ity.

Too Gentle For War

Reflection on the proposed use
of acetyl chlorine, faint-pro-
ducing chemical, to make war
humane" serves only to empha-
size wars inescapable barbarity.
The proposal was made to the
American Chemical Sciety meet
ing. Acetyl chlorine introduced
in the blood stream lowers blood
pressure so suddenly as to induce
dead faint. Impregnated in
shells of some porous substance,
it would produce this instant re-
suit in anyone suffering the
slightest scratch from shell
fragment. Recovery brings no i'll
effects. Whole regiments, said
the speaker, might be put out of
action and taken captive with
few, if any, fatalities.
But view the matter practically.
Who will use this benign chemi.
cal? What nation at war will
prefer it to the more deadly
shrapnel? Or, to put the case az
brutally as 1t deserves, what ma.
ton will prefer to burden Itself

Long WGy From Noon

Dr. Goddard, the rocket man,
has finally got one of his self
propelling flight machines to
soar some $500 feet into the air
That is quite long way, as we
measure distance on this little
earth, but is not so far if one is
off on a journey to the moon.
And in popular understanding of
what DR.. Goddard is aiming at,
the moon is his objective.
If we look at the speed at which
this projectile is said to have
made a recent flight, the expert
ment takes on a bit of a rosy
hue. They say the flight was
made at the rate of 700 miles an
hour. Now if the doctor can
keep that rate up long enough
and can give his projectile fuel
enough, he may make the moon
in the course of a 15-day flight,
providing, of course, he can
shoot straight enough.
DR.. Goddard has been working
on his pet contrivance for a mat
ter of twenty years. The expert
mental ship, weighing only eighty
pounds, was constructed of Sc
cret alloy. 1t has proved capable
of withstanding sudden changes
in temperature and the kick of
the fuel which drives it. He is
trying at present to reduce the
weight of the tube and it's equip
ment. Recently he completed
tests of fuel to his satisfaction.
But what is the use of lust
bombarding the moon? We have
always supposed that DR.. Cod
dard was really dreaming of the
time when his rocket would land
some one on the moon, although
that would leave the problem Of
getting back something else.

King Carol hoped to crush the

Balkan experts said.
Whether he will succeed, they
adde, depends on the army'S att'-
tude. They said the present cab
met could not hope to destroy the
Iron Guards because Premier Ia
tarcscu lacked nationwide pres

to resign.
Nicholas was placed under ar
rest at his country estate this
week. He prepared to go into eX-
lie with his wife and child. An
order expelling him from the
country was suspended, however,
and it was reported Nicholas was
challenging his brother to force
him out.
Nicholas, reports said, was bank
ing heavily on the support of the
Fascist, anti-Jcwish Iron Guards

zemo and Zelcs Codcanus.
The Iron Guards after their dis
