TODAY's HOROSCOPE

Today's mind is harmonious and
,peaceable, and the personality shrewd
and capable. In stronger natures
this will result in success as measured
by the worlds Standard; but in the
weaker ones, the disregard of the fl
nancial end of the question may prove
handicap, for devotion to the fire
arts will be excessive.

A PERPETUALLY NEW FRONTIER
(Nogales Herald)

No new frontiers in America?
The chemical industry alone is OPEN
ing up new horizons that put the most
imaginative adventurer on his toes. 1t
is not long since insulin was first ap-
piled as specific cure for diabetes,
one of the serious hazards that ambush
ed human life. Now sulphanilimide prom
ises to conquer dread poisons that here
tofore so often fatally polluted the
blood stream. Other uses of these prod
ucts are sure to enlarge the limits of
life-giving science.
What will happen next on this per-
petually new frontier? 1t is interesting
to ask who will make a chemical fibre
not only as good but actually better
than natural silk. This is not far off.
Who will produce the perfect insecticide?
one that will safeguard plant against
injury from insects, stay on long enough
to be effective, and be either nontoxic
to the warm-blooded animals or easily
removed when its service is complete?
Who will produce a corrosion-resis-
tant alloy, as workable and as cheap as
ordinary iron or mild steel? From what
plant will come metal finish or coat
ing that will protect for the useful life
of the metal and, in the case of the
automobile dry bright and shiny without
chamois and elbow grease?

HE IS THE ONE
IN EACH COMMUNITY
(Riyerside PresS)

Every city and community has its
staunch and faithful supporter who goes
unsung through most of his days.
He is the one who is called upon first
to donate to charity, the first to give
generous support to all civic activities
and lend his time, money, and energy to
boost the community where he lives.
He is the average businessman. He
provides the bulk of the taxes, and his
unflagging labors are the handspring of
business. Yet today he is often treated
as if he were everybody's enemy.
No one guarantees his income but he
is denounced if he cannot pay high
wages. Nothing safeguards him against
bankruptcy, but he is called anti-social
if he must discharge employees. If he
tries to save funds to expand his business,
the law slaps an undivided surplus tax
on thoe funds. If efficient management
enables his firm to sell things cheaper
than his less efficient competitors can
afford to do, price-fiXing law forbids
him to do so. If his thrift and industry
enable him to operate two stores instead
of one, he becomes everybody's menace
and drives are started to tax him out of
existence with punitive legislation.
And if he is still in business by the
years end, he must hire whole corps
of lawyers to decipher the red tape of
income taxes, pension funds, unemploy-
ment insurance and social security-to
keep him out of Jail.
There is no closed season on the aver
age business man!

PLAN FOR SOUTHSIDE
PARK IS COMMEMORATE

The plan of the city council to create
a park just north of Harding school
should receive universal approval. Sever
al years ago it was attempted without
success. Today it can be accomplished
almost entirely without cost, and with
surprising simplicity. Creation of the
contemplated greensward between Sew
enth and Eighth streets, and Vine and
Hamilton streets, will give southside a
children a nice recreational playground,
Just as the north side has had for many
years in the form of City Park.
For years past that area, and the
tracts north of Hamilton have comprised
a veritable dust bowl When the winds
come from the west, dust clouds i'm
mediately rise to smother the populated
areas. Planting this solid block with
grass, and eventually with shrubs and
trees, will eliminate at least a sizeable
portion of the dust that at present settles
on southsiders' furniture 1t is apprOpri-
ate that such a park be located near
school, and this will be side by side with
Harding school, giving children more
room during recesses and after school.
All of the block belongs to the city
except for three lots. On one is a resi-
dence Whlcn Will De moved 10 anOJnef
city lot and doubtless will sell for very
nearly the cost of purchase and moving.
The other tracts are being taken care of
at slight cost. In fact, this cost can prob
ably bring actual dividends to the city
because the north side of Hamilton, fac
ing the park, is owned by the city. This
should be very desirable for residences,
and part of the plan is to offer these
lots for sale at prices which will render
the city profit, and at the same time,
place the land back on tax rolls.
In addition, Hamilton street is to be
opened between Seventh and Eighth
streets, a long needed improvement.
which will help to open up what hereto
fore has been a blank spot. The plan
fits in we'll with the community's efforts
to beautify the city. In fact, creation of
the park would appear to be one of those
cases where everybody benefits; an in
stance of making an asset of a liability.
Newly appointed Park Commissioner
Charles Blalack has done a good job in
making the move possible.

armies.
Now what lies back of this war
crisis is the simple fact that the
ordinary man in Europe isn't get
ting that little bit which is his
hearts desire-or, if he is, he fears
that his neighbor is about to take
it away from him. And whether
this particular crisis is passed or
not, there will never be a secure and
lasting peace until men everywhere
are assured of the satisfaction of
those simple desires.
Those desires could be satisfied.
Europe's fields, mines and factories
could produce the things her people
need. Peaceful trade, fostered on
basis of meeting the needs of the
people of each country instead of
being geared to provide this, that
or the other nation with "econ-
omic self-sufficiency," could distri-
butte those things where they were
needed
But that isn't done. Hardly an
attempt to do it is made. And be-
cause, without it, larger and larger
numbers Of people are forced to go
without these few essentials for
human contentment, Europe today
Is Welter of fear, hatred, anxiety,
and suspicion which makes war al
most inevitable.
The people of Europe can have
the things they want-if they go
after them in the right way. The
tragedy of this moment is that they
are heading instead down a dark
and bloody road which will exact a
fearful toll from them-and leave
them as far as ever from their real
goal.

The FINE POINTS
OF WORLD DIPLOMACY

Thousands of Americans, as we'll as
millions in other nations, are puzzled
today over the actions of Messrs. Cham
berlain and Hitler. That is, over Cham
berlain's insistence that Nazi troops
should not be sent into Czechoslovakia
until that nation had officially handed
the Sudetenland over to Germany, and
over Hitler's insistence ON immediate
action.
Hitler alone knows why he insisted on
marching Immediately. The reasons for
Chamberlain's actions, on the other hand,
are more plain.
Contrary TO popular belief, no treaties
have been violated by Britain or France
thus far. None would be violated if
those two countries could persuade
Czechoslovakia to give certain territory
to Germany. But if German troops
marched into Sudetenland before it be-
fore it became German territory-that
would be invasion of Czechoslovakia.
And France is sworn to protect the
Czechs in case of invasion, while Britain
is sworn to aid France.
1t is technicality, true-but it may
stand between peace and war for Europe.
