ernment acting Illegally, as we saw it,
No End to Row in Sight.
The recurrence of this dispute SO
long after it first brought friction be-
tween the English and the Americans
probably indicates that it is contro-
versy which will last as long as time, or
at least as long as there are wars in
which England participates. The British
always, except in the declaration of Paris
in 1856, have refused to make them
selves parties to treaties or conventions
or pacts which limit their chief reliance
their sea force. The British operate
on the theory that in wartime the best
international lawyer is the owner Of the
best fleet.
Lord Salisbury once remarked that
the British tentative agreement in the
declaration of Paris permitting enemy
goods to be carried unmolested in neu-
tral bottoms would mean rendering the
British Navy useless for anything ex-
cept a purely defensive operation to
keep an enemy from the shores of Eng
land and the isles. The British trade in
ships which know they have the protec-
ton of large navy. The Americans
trade in ships which like to feel they
are protected by international conven-
ton. When the navy and the convention
clash, disagreement is unavoidable. That
Is the disagreement We have today.

contributions to the welfare of
mankind. 1t is only necessary to
glance at the reports of the De-
partment Of Agriculture on the
value Of the poultry crop to ap-
preciate its Importance to produc-
ers and consumers alike.
In recent years new profits
have been drawn from the poultry
industry through more scientific
feeding. Research work by the
State and Federal agencies, as
well as by feed manufacturers
has developed improved rations
which have definitely added to
money returns.
AS is pointed out by J. E. Hun
ter, a research authority, in a re-
cent article, with the steady rise
in the production of soybeans as
a new and profitable cash crop
for farmers, there has been an in
creased use of soybean oil meal
in the poultry ration. While soy
beans contain more oil than poul-
try can effectively use, the oil
mean is Of high nutritive value
and contains a full complement of
the essential amino acids so neces-
sary for Optimum growth, pro-

Greatest of Tragedies

Good Friday commentaries the
most sublime expression of that
love which passes all understand
.ng 1t recalls to the Christian
world the death Of a King, born
IN manger, who carried His
own gibbet up steep hill to the
place of the skull, called Golgotha
md offered His life for the re-
uemptiOn of mankind.
There is no other comparable
tragedy in human history, none
that has so influenced and exalted
the destinies of generations, no
story SO frightened with sorrow
as that of the joyous Boy, son of
a young, frail mother, who taught
the world by precept and exam
pie how to live, and then died in
agony on the Cross before the
eyes of Mary. This story is one
to comfort thosd whose hearts
are afflicted. It's powers of spirit
ual subStenance are infinite. Once
year is not too often to permit
the mind to dwell upon the tragic
succession of events that led from
Gethsemane to Calvary and ended
with the crucifiXiOn. From the
spectacle of the bleeding figure on
the Cross, men throughout the
ages have captured much of their
inspiration to nobility of soul.

4 Remembering Silence

Silence is the most solemn
tribute man can pay to sorrow, to
death and to mysteries beyond the
little scale of his understanding.
In three of the gospels it is re-
corded that there was darkness
over the whole land until the
ninth hour, as a miraculous dra-
ma of death and resurrection
neared it's end in ancient Pales-
tine. In that great darkness the
voices Of the troubled world must
nave been hushed by fear and by
doubt and wonder.
The confusion of the modern
world cannot be altogether quiet
ed, even in remembrance of the
most significant event in all Chris
t1on record. Yet it has become
an increasing custom to observe
GOOD Friday with symbolic silence
80 far as possible, and by hating
while the fevered hurry of work
eSAAN PA"y' Mduy PSloOu Will re-
member in silence at midday the
meaning of Good Friday.
But out of darkness cometh the
light and the silence of death Is
comforted by the voice of faith.
Stronger than the dark, the
light;
Stronger than the wrong, the
right;
Faith and hope triumphant say
Christ will rise on Easter Day.
1t is eternally a part of the
Easter festival to keep Good Fri
day in solemn remembrance,
marking its meaning to the lives
of all men who walk in the shadow
of death, but live in the faith of
resurrection. For this the busiest
day, the most crowded hour can
spare it's tribute.

ton of ethical qualities and the
dissemination Of basic principles
of citizenship are heralds which
the public has come to anticipate.
AS for ourselves, we prefer to
turn away from all such idealistic
twaddle and simply observe that
baseball is a grand old game. En-
tirely apart from their possible
civic and moral significance, the
crack of the bat, the mad slide
into second and the sensational
One-handed spear are essen
tial features of the American
scene which add to the joy of mil
lions
No other justification is needed.
1t is enough to say that baseball
occupies a big place in the heart
of America, that it contains all
the elements Of magnificent
pasttime and that it is full of real
thrills. With this observation, we
leave all high4brow analysis to
the seasonal scholars and merely
add in passing that there's a po-
tent kick in the current cry

Songs With Melody

Radio and the makers of phono-
graph discs are leaning more and
more on the old songs - the ones
with melodies. In part, no doubt,
this may be explained by a grow
ing American tendency to bark
back, in the present case by way
Of songs associated with happier
and less complicated times.
But bearing on it, too, is the
trend among song writer's to the
popular song without an air. Peo-
pie with no melodic imagination

are writing for others who never
learned to sing. So the public,
and the worried caterer to the
public taste, go back to the older
tunes that were robust and had
flavor and still linger gratefully
in the memory.
Song writing, like others of the
lively arts, is pressed for more
material than its powers of inven-
ton can provide. In Hollywood
it punches a time clock and grinds
out songs that are made to order
and show it. The famed Califor-
MIA climate does something to
talents that flourish in Eastern
tin pan alleys and the need of
keeping to schedule completes
their paralysis. Also, in the con-
seriousness of the composer, per-
haps is a feeling that if he wrote
another Blue Danube" the sheer
reiteration of it on screen and air
and wherever music is projected
would murder it in a matter of
weeks.
So, leading the hit parade cur
rently is a tune written seven
years ago and found lately in a
trunk by a bandleader at a loss
for material. It's chief merit ap-
pears to be that it is tune, not
the days hack work of a tired
writer. We shall see more Of it
no doubt from time to time. When
number like Get Out Of Town"
can get a hearing, the art OF
writing songs has nowhere to go
but up.
