Rothbury said excitedly. Il see

ever since he'd become a political
power. He'd taken care" of
troublesome people for him before,
and he knew exactly what the poll

was generous for such service,
too.

"Eh ?"

Accident? Oh, yes, of course.
But it must be done quickly-and
safely. There can't be the slight

stopped, and glared viciously at
the man who had served him in
many capacities during the past Is
years.
1T will be an accident, Chief"
well, that's up to you then, Joe.

He turned and led the way to
the private elevator, and both of
them entered it. The door closed
with sharp click.

Bedtime Stories
BY THORNTON w. BURGESS

Danny Meadow Mouse had taken
it into his funny little head to 60
over to the Smiling Pool. Just why
he did it nobody knows. Perhaps
it was because he wanted to consult
Grandfather Frog, who, you know,
is accounted very wise. Perhaps he
wanted to call on his big cousin,
Jerry Muskrat. Perhaps it was be-
cause he felt uneasy and wanted to
60 somewhere for a change Of scene.
Whatever the reason, Danny un-
expectedly appeared one morning on
the bank of the Smiling Pool.
The very first person he saw was
Grandfather Frog sitting on his big,
green lily pad. Good morning,
Grandfather Frog" squeaked Danny.
Grandfather Frog turned about in
funny little hop of startled surprise
and blinked his great, goggly eyes
at Danny Meadow Mouse. "Chug-
arum," said he, in a deep, gruff
voice. What are you doing over
here, Danny Meadow Mouse?"
Nothing in particular" replied
Danny.
People who are doing nothing in
particular are very likely to get into
trouble. Don't you know that, DAN
ny Meadow Mouse?" demanded
Grandfather Frog.
"Oh, I guess I can keep out Of
trouble" squeaked Danny. II don't

Use Of Cheese Increases

Cheese is believed to have orig
mated thousands of years before the
Christian era. Tradition has it that
an Arab herdsman stopped for
lunch on the desert, but the milk in
his goatskin bag had become an in
triguing soft but solid substance
which made an appetizing food of
great nutritive value. Cheese is COM
ing into its own in the United States
as a food, and within the last 10
years America has increased its an
nual cheese order almost 20 per cent,
which brings this increase to to-
tai of about 51a pounds annually per
person.

Bereft Of everything that's new!"
In sooth. Sir Cynic, don't you know
That all this happened long ago?
The breeze which through the hedees
swept
Where savage loves their trysting kept
In days primeval, did inspire
The love song of the hearts desire,
And when rival met his fate
The song OF triumph and of hate
That still resounds In martial tones
Was intermingled with his groans.
The songs of wedding and of feast,
The songs of penitent and priest,
Are echoings from far away
In some remote ancestral day.
For other songs we strive in vain.
We can but sing these DER again.

that the demand for further benefits
is certain to be accentuated by un-
employment and that there should be
vigorous efforts to find Jobs for these
men. That there are nearly half
million of them out of work is not
so surprising as 1t may seem at first
thought, for the veterans Of 1917
and 1918 are already passing into the
age class when they may be con-
sidered as unemployables. The de-
STABILITY and Justice of pension leg
islation remains to be debated in the
future. We may expect to hear it
debated in the most lively fashion.
But it is certain that, with a half
million or anything close to half
million veterans dependent on relief,
the demands are sure to be vigorous
and not far away.

A Useless Bill

representative Smith of Virginia,
who long has advocated the building
OF a model airport at Gravelly Point,
is deserving OF praise for the work he
has done In past years to gain con-
gressional support for such project.
Now that the Washington National
Airport actually is under construc-
ton, without benefit Of Congress, so
to speak, however, Mr.. Smith has
introduced in the House a bill which
is not deserving Of support.
The new Smith bill seeks to intrust
the operation Of the Washington Ma
tional Airport, when completed, to a
commission which would be COM
posed Of "the Assistant Secretary of
Commerce in charge of aeronautics,
the Army engineer for the local dis
trict, and an official OF the National
Park Service.
The proposal not only seems to be
ill-advised but to be based upon en-
trely erroneous information. There
Is no Assistant Secretary of Com
merce in charge of aeronautics."
Aeronautics has been divorced en-
tirely from the Commerce Depart
ment and now is vested in that in
dependent agency, the Civil Aero
nautics Authority.
Surely, there Is no Federal agency
better equipped to administer the
national airport here than that new
authority, which now is in general
charge OF its construction, in CO.
operation with four other Federal
agencies.
The Civil Aeronautics Act Of 1888,
as interpreted by Federal legal au-
thorities, gives the c. A. A. clear
authority to construct, maintain and
operate such an airport. The c. A. A,
is to have its home at the Washington
National Airport, under present
plans, and its officials therefore
should have every incentive to see to
1t that the airport is operated as a
model for all to behold.
The Authority has within it's make
up an Airport Traffic Control Divi-
sion and other units working con-
stantly on airport problems of a ma
tional and local character. With the
information 1t possesses and must
continue to possess so long as it con-
tinues to function, the c. A. A. is
equipped as Is no other organization
to administer an airport OF truly ma
tional character. It could set up a
model airport operating organiza-
ton for other people to copy.
Mr.. Smiths bill would seem to be
unnecessary. The Gravelly Point air.
port is in capable hands and no legis-
lation is required to keep 1t there.

and certain signs that mark our AIneri-
can arterial highways? One Of the most
conspicuous is unrestricted freedom and
equality Of opportunity to every traveller.
While there are periods when selfish
drivers violate this rule, sooner or later
they get their just desserts.
Another definite marking is designed
to regulate speed and render the road
safe for every one. We are having fresh
warnings that excess of speed in these
days is not only dangerous, 1t is uneco-
nomic. We have had some tragic eW-
dences of this these recent years. We
have moved so fast that we have taken
little time for wise planning, with the
result that much that we have done will
have to be undone.
More neglected than any of the rules
Of the highway is our indifference to
those ethical, moral and spiritual rules
that alone make travel equitable and
fair for all travellers. After a period
marked by recklessness and an undue
self-assurance, we are beginning to dis
cover that beyond all other rules OF the
road, there is little Of happiness or
security for any Of us, unless all Of us are
governed and regulated by that kind of
unselfishness, kindness and generous
consideration that insures to fellow trav-
elers of every race, name and tempera-
ment their fair and just due.
The finest road rules ever compiled are
to be found in book we call the Bible,
notably that part Of it we call the New
Testament. Here are set forth in clear
and challenging terms the highest
standards that should govern the trav-
eler on the highways Of life. When these
rules and regulations have been consist
emily observed, confusion, disorder and
strife have been avoided. When they
have been ignored, the sorrows and trag-
edies OF the highway have been multi
piled. The word Of an ancient seer still
holds true: 'The way Of a man is not
in himself; it is not in man that walketh
to direct his steps,"
AS we look out upon our world today
we can see little to give us confidence and
courage to pursue our way, unless the
Master Of the highway, the true Road
maker, is given His place and world
travellers are made obedient to His will.
Let us hope the road maps are to be
made surer and safer In the new year
1939-here and everywhere

KEEPING TO THE HIGHWAY
BY the Right Reu James E. Freeman D. d. IL. d. D. L.
Bishop OF Washington.

Every one who has done any extensive
motoring has learned that so-called ar
terial highways between given points
are better and safer than second or third
class roads, even though the latter may
be shorter and possibly more convenient.
There is little economy in short cuts.
The tried and tested highways are always
the best. Any consistent survey of life
makes this evident.
Frequently in early life the youth seeks
to find the short and easy ways to attain
ment, only to discover later that what he
has gained Is Of little value in the sharp
competitions Of life. Scholarship, skill
Of any kind. efficiency, the capacity to
meet and overcome obstacles, these are
not gained through hurried detours over
roads that shorten distance. There are
no short cuts to efficient living. Attain
ment Of any kind is costly.
Reflections such as these are prompted
by the beginning Of a new year. It is q
time when 1t is both consistent and safe
to restudy the road maps and to discover
whether we have kept to the tested high.
ways and If the objectives we seek are
clearly defined. Whether we are sys-
tematic and definite in making timer
aries for years travel or not, all of us,
II we are to find any satisfaction in life,
must have some reasonable plan with
some idea as to the routes we are to
follow. Without such plan and with
out fixed idea as to the best and safest
road, there is little of satisfaction in the
journey. Most Of the dissatisfactions
which we experience are directly due to
desultory and careless planning. AS each
one Of us looks at the road map for 1889.
what do the new routes look like? They
bear certain new markings that indicate
here and there contemplated and exten-
sive repair work. Again we note that in
certain places old highways have been
radically changed with new detectives
ahead. To some these changes have an
ominous significance. To others, less re-
Elective. they are accepted as the newt
able signs of changing world. To the
American tourist these revised and re-
made road maps Of foreign design are
unsatisfactory. They may prove accept
able to those who have never known the
Well-determined routes over which q
free people have learned to travel.

All Other States and Canad
Member Of the Associated Press
Italy and REFUGEES

Conflicting reports from Rome,
coupled with reticence at the White
House and the State Department,
make it impossible to know just what
is going on between the United States
and Italy in connection with Jewish
refugees. First there were reports
that Premier Mussolini had fatty
rejected Ambassador Phillips pro-
posal to open up Ethiopia as haven
of settlement for Jewish immigrants
from Italy and other European coun-
tries. The same reports quoted II
Duce also as unwilling to take up
with Chancellor Hitler president
Roosevelt's plan" for ameliorating
the plight of refugees-presumably a
reference to the ntergovernmental
repatriation project which George
Rublee, the American head Of the
International Committee, is about to
discuss at Berlin.
On top of these reports comes
London news dispatch alleging that
"the President will receive Mussolini's
help in getting Jews out Of Germany
with portion, at least, of their own
property" This may mean little, or
nothing, for it may denote the Italian
governments readiness merely to
support the obnoxious Schacht plan
to exploit the misery of Reich Jews
and their anxiety to emigrate as
cold-blooded method of increasing
German exports. Meantime, beyond
admitting that Ambassador Phillips
has conferred with Mussolini on the
Jewish problem, Acting Secretary of
State Welles throws no light on the
subject. II Duce, he graphically OBJ
serves, "was both helpful and CO.
operative" incidentally, II Duce is
said to have suggested, not without
conscious irony, that the United
States itself, Brazil and the Soviet
Union, with vast tracts Of unsettled
and uncultivated terrain, offer the
best economic possibilities for Jewish
immigration.
Many authorities, including Zionist
leaders, continue to contend that
Palestine, despite the bitter racial
complications that still battle British
efforts to effect a compromise agree
able to all concerned, remains op-
pressed Jewry's most promising hope.
The Arab-Jew conference shortly
to be convened in London may find
some solution for a hitherto insur-
mountable impasse. Louis E. Spiegler,
a leading Washington Zionist, writ
ing recently to The Star, voiced the
view that "it would appear to be con-
sistent with international justice and
conscience that the Jews be permit
ted to settle, colonize and develop a
small country as national home
land. where the weary and eternal
wanderer may come to rest forever"

upon his innocence: and friends
made the most Of their opportunities
to agitate In his name. Riots in far
of Russia were symptomatic of the
results.
So, the Mooney case passes into
history as a tangled mystery. The
prisoner is free to tour the country
as living advertisement for the
revolution" in which he believes.
His conduct, if peaceable, will
strengthen his reputation as "a VIC
time OF injustice" wrongfully con-
fined for more than twenty-five
years.
