CONFUSION OF NAMES

Many animals and birds in the United
States are popularity known by names that
are all wrong. according to a writer in the
Forum, who asserts that the bird common
~ called robin is really thrush and
proceeds to point out other misnomers.
What we call warblers are not warb-
lers at all, he says, but we do have one
kind of real warbler, which We call gnat-
catcher. Our so-called orioles are black
birds. and the meadow lark is also kind
of blackbird
Florida seems TO be the most confused
state with respect to names The wood ibis
is not an ibis, but StOrk. There is a true
ibis in Florida known as the white curIew !:
also turtle called gopher. while the
prairie gopher of the North is called a
salamander. Florida has salamanders, but
these go by the name of Congo eels
Well. there isn't so much in names,
anyway. so the Forum writer shouldn't
worry about them. And often a thing has
two or more names that are correct. For
instance, the alligator pear; also written
avocado. avocatO. avogata. avigato. aba
cado. abbogada. alvacata and alligato-
al sanctioned by the dictionary.

A FIRST OPERA HIT

Produced in the week of the compO5-
er's list birthday, the first opera by Gus
tav Strube of Baltimore was acclaimed as a
success. 1t is called The Captive" and
deals with the buccaneers of the seven
teenth century
1t is classed as an American opera, al
though the composer was born in Germany.
He came to the United States in 1890, was
naturalized in 1896, and has taken promi-
nent part in the musical life OF his adopted
country for nearly half a century, begin
ming as violinist with the Boston SYM
phony Orchestra
Mr.. Strube is a musical conductor of
note, and has composed three symphonies,
besides long list of other works, but is
said TO have worked internationally for 20
years or his opera. He was the organizer
and for Is years conductor OF the Balti-
more Symphony Orchestra.
The Captive" was produced in Balti-
more by a company of experienced but not
professional singers, the principal role be-
ing sung by Mrs. Margaret Gflmer, describ-
ed as "a comedy housewife" The perform
ance was conducted by the composed who
received an ovation.

NET RESULTS: NOTHING

A naval holiday, such as that propos-
ed by Representative Ludlow, of Indiana,
would be hailed with much satisfaction by
taxpayers all over the world.
The Congressman, who recently init
ated a war referendum amendment to the
Constitution, asserts that 1.-The world is ripe
for such a movement and that America
should seize the opportunity and assume
leadership in this fateful period of the
worlds history
We regret we cannot follow the gentle
mans belief that any results would come
from what he terms an opportunity for Eek
allied craftsmanship. Reluctantly, we have
been forced to believe that even if an agree
ment could be concluded it would not mean
anything to either Italy, Germany or Japan
The great peril of the world today
lies in the utter wOrthleSsness of interna-
tionaI agreements when they conflict with
what strong nation desires What reliance
could be placed upon treat with nations
that have demonstrated a willingness to
violate existing pacts.
Suppose that Japan, for example,
WOulu duheTe 10 the teTHS VI the Lohdoh
Naval Pact and continue to keep her naval
construction a secret. Who would be salts
fled that no ships were being secretly built
for the purpose of upsetting the status at
a favorable moment? The same ObserVa-
ton applies to Italy and Germany as well
Both of them have shown that in the pur-
suit of national ends, treaties and the
rights of other nations have no standing un-
less backed by arms and willingness to
use them.
