35 YEARS OF ROTARY

This week in Juneau in than 5000 com munities in the United States and in communities all over the Americas, Europe, Asia Africa, Aus traa New Zealand and the far-flung islands in between Rotarians and Rotary clubs are to par tcipate in Rotary Observance Week celebrations and activities.
 Rotary was founded by Paul P. Harris in Chi cago in 1905 The event is generally regarded as the forerunner of the service club movement in the United States Significantly Harris is still active in Rotary work in the city of the clubs birth Many other old Rotarians, whose service is only few years shorter than Harrss remain enthusiastic Ro- tarians.
 Rotary observance week, which began yesterday and lasts until Saturday. represents more than a celebration of Rotarys 35th birthday. It takes on deeper meaning and significance in that it repre- sents an inventory period Rotary clubs and Ro- tarans everywhere. It will be a time for inventory of past activities and discussion of present and projected activities, with both the inventory and the discussion serving as basis for more effective service activities in the future.
 Rotary during the 35 brief years of its existence, has grown from a single club to more than 5O00 clubs in than 30 countries and with a member ship of more than 100000 Rotary views with just pride it's record of achievement in the fields of fellowship of community service, Of vocational serv  mas been translated into more than score of lan- guages; club meetings conducted in many tongues What IS more important, the principles of Rotary have been accepted by men of almost every nationality and almost every political and religious belief not because they the principles on which Rotary is founded, but because they are the prin- ciples upon which civilization must depend.
 Rotary believes that in times such these it should bend every effort toward uniting it's inter-
 
 good will, cooperative understanding. and tolerance. Rotary believes that though it's 2l0000 member ship is but handful of the worlds population still it is representative of almost every nationality and creed. Moreover. Rotarys members representing they do virtually every classification of business and professional in the community. are who exert definite sphere of influence in their business, cia and civic contacts.

 Japan on the admission of War Minister Hata, cabinet member did not put it that way but that is the reality behind his declaration that it has cost Japan 100000 lives to establish the new order of Asia"
 A defense might be made of such terrible human outlay had a order been established But the useesness of the effort becomes appallingy apparent when it is realized that Japan maintains her hold in China by the flimsiest lines Japan has not conquered China and those parts of it under her military control she does not rule. She is try ing to establish Chinese puppet government to place the facade of power unwarranted in- vason.
 The War Ministers effort to distinguish the Japanese adventure from of aggression else where is mere word juggling No order is need ed wanted in Asia. The undeclared war has been an error which Japan would like to correct but correction is impossible for long time to come. Japan according to Hata, intends to continue the campaign until the Chinese government is crushed.
 The western world should be interested in that assertion It implies that the rights of Britain, ignored It implies also that Tokyo has no inten- ton of correcting the abuses which led to the de- nunciaton of the commercial treaty by the United States. This is excellent demonstration of the disconcerting way in which Japan's military men make meaningless the promises and good intentions of the civil government.
 Further aggression is the real policy of Japan in the Orient. Hata's statement tells Washington more about Japans intentions than dozen polite notes from the foreign office.

 but do Rot compel
TUESDAY. FEBRUARY 20


 This should be fairly fortunate day, since the mind is subject to stabilizing influences. It is a date good for planning, and news from Europe may affect important de- cisions regarding the future. Women are subject to promising planetary influences.
 Heart and Home: Under this configuration women will experi- ence extremes of fortune There is an indication that in business and the professions girls will be in greater demand than formerly and will contribute materially to the upkeep of the average home. Love affairs should flourish today, for men will be urgent suitors, san guine concerning their financial possibilities.
 Business Affairs: Professional men should benefit. The stars preSage great activity for lawyers as well as physicians and surgeons. There is a good sign for the United States navy. Promotion of officers is forecast, also added respect tor the fighting power of war vessels. Access of influence for bankers is prognosticated. They may dictate to the Government in Washington regarding an important policy.
 National Issues; Competition for party popularity may be keen and even bitter. Agitation of the plan for one term for President of the United States will gain support as third termers make progress. The stars preSage an international in- cident that adds to the support of President Roosevelt among persons of all parties.
 International Affairs: France may lose the sympathy of Americans as the nation meets difficult tests in war policies. AS the numbers of victims of conflict increase rapidly, unrest among warning peoples will gain serious potentiality. The stars Iong have warned of revolutionary tendencies. The overthrow of a ruler or dictator is threatened. Sharp changes in loyalty are pres aged.
 Persons whose birthdate it Is have the augury of year of good fortune. Both men and women should push all their interests, financial and social
 Children born on this day prob ably will be darlings of the gods. They may combine the best traits of Aquarius and Pisces, for they are on the cusp.

An Unexciting Issue
Cincinnati Enquirer)

The reciprocal trade pacts, it appears, do not have the stuff it takes to provide live political issue in a presidential year A recent Gallup poll elicts the information that only person ill ten asserts a knowledge of what the trade treaties are This is spectacular figure, for very few politi cal questions indeed do nine tenths of the voters eliminate themselves as unable to make judgment.
 Of those who do know what the reciprocal pactS are, T percent regard them with approval small CT but still a large majority believes they should be continued Most interesting of all the things learned by the poll is that Democrats and Republicans feel precisely alike on this issue.
 From this evidence, it seems quite clear that the trade treaties do not offer the COP an ad- vantageous political issue Only very few voters percent of Republicans well as Democrats approve of the tariff treaty program. To launch presi- dential campaign against the treaties would mean, for the Republican party, task of changing the minds of most of it's own followers, and then mencing the uphill task of converting Democrats to contrary view.
 There many great issues of intense impor- tance to the country-iSsueS which the Republi- cans already have majority of voters leaning to the COP. viewpoint These hold real promise as campaign issues-economy, removal of barriers to business recovery, defation of relief and farm eX- pendtures and the like. In contrast, campaign based on opposition to the reciprocal tariff pacts would have no popular interest and might lose great many votes for the Republican nominee.
