There aren't any lonelier houses
in Washington than 700 jackson
place NV.
For TOO Jackson place is the in
ternational headquarters Of the
Carnegie Endowment for Interna-
tional Peace-headquarters for a
peace that has never been found,
of a cause that today seems all but
lost despite the spending Of mil
lions of dollars.
At the moment the venerable
brown building has also an air of
desolation and gloom for another
reason. It's master" has gone.
Recently retired, DR.. James Brown
Scott, secretary Of the endowment
for 80 years, has temporarily quit
the city, on a "long trip" according
to his secretary.
Headquarters Open.
The headquarters Is, of course,
open; there are attendants, stenog-
raphers, librarians. The library
shelves are stacked with $4,000
books, reading tables and chairs are
busted and ready, but a visitor does
not encounter many, if any,
readers. The guns which have
been blasting throughout this 20th
century have caused dreadful and
haunted silence in the headquarters
musty halls Of peace.
Andrew Carnegie wrote to his
trustees on December IA, 1910. when
he founded the endeavor, II have
transferred to you as trustees of
the Carnegie Peace Fund $4,000 900
of 5 per cent first mortgage bonds,
the revenue of which is to be ad-
ministered by you to hasten the
abolition of war, the foulest blot
upon our civilization"
Not only Is the "blot" still terribly
present, but the wild beasts" to
which Mr.. Carnegie alluded in the
same note appear to be bent on
ravaging the entire face of the So
called civilized world. And the II
and some billion dollars which the
world spent on ornaments In 1898

seem puny and Intellectual by COM
parison.
of to Slow Start.
The endowment did not get of
to an auspicious start. Nine months
after It's Inauguration the Italian
Turkish War was declared: in 1912
there was war in the Balkans, and
in 1914 the real holocaust broke
loose, the same holocaust which
historians say is shadowing the
globe today. Since 1918 there have
been score of lesser wars, revolu-
tions and incidents"
Through all the tribulations Of
this modern dark age" the Carnegie
Endowment has worked quietly
ahead, hoping and spending. The
appropriation for the just ended
fiscal year was s649,162. The money
is spent in many ways, not the least
OF which is for books.
According to the most recent list
ing made by the endowment, pub
locations of the organization are on
deposit in the libraries of So nations.
The number of libraries so repre-
sented at the last count varied from
one in Iran to 435 in the United
States and its possessions. Ger
many, curiously enough, ranked next
to this country with So libraries.
England, excluding Wales and the
empire, had only 49. Italy was in

palling significance"
The past year Is certainly dis
appointing as one considers the un-
told millions Of men now under
arms, the untold thousands who
have died horrible deaths In battle
on land, sea and In the air, the
billions of dollars which have been
spent for more and more ghastly
ornaments and poison gases to kill,
MAIN and enslave human beings.
And the year to come promises
surely greater disappointments.
No wonder TOO Jackson place is
the loneliest house in Washington.

Nearly 1900 books were distrib-
uted in 1898. They covered a wide
range of subject matter, from highly
technical treatises on international
law to simple story books. rAlice
in Wonderland" was among those in
special Christmas distribution.)
There are, according to present
available figures, 1924 International
Relations Clubs in colleges and uni
versities throughout the world.
There are scholarships and special
lecture tours, research projects and
entertainments. Into many chan
nels flows the money for peace.
But the endowment has not known
peace. War has reached into its
very portals. The Paris ofIice, fear
ing air raids, moved to the provinces
last September and many members
of its stan were called to military
service; 1t is a safe bet that Adolf
Hitler has not gone out Of his way
to encourage activity in this ONCE
since his occupation Of France.
The London Office has remained
in the metropolis, but its director,
Hubert Howard, and all but two Of
his assistants are now engaged In
prosecuting the very war which
Carnegie's trustees hired them to
prevent.
Disappointment Expressed.
Not long ago memories of Car
negie were revived when Samuel
Harden Church, 82-year-old presi-
dent of the Carnegie Institute in
Pittsburgh, announced the sensa-
tional offer of $1,000.000 for the
capture and deliverance to the
League of Nations of Reichsfuehrer
Hitler.
The time limit of the offer ex-
pired, and Hitler remained on the
loose, bigger and happier and more
pernicious than ever.

none could be justified to conceal

Murray Butler, president of the en-
dowment, wrote in a report made
this spring.
Despite the stupendous progress
which has been made during the

The gendarmes were arrested

2. Break Britain's empire contacts.
3. Defeat her "at home, on the sea

extent necessary for ending the war.
Italy's part in this, according to
Gayda, will be to strike at Britain
in Egypt, the Anglo-Egyptian Sudan,
Kenya colony and British Somali-
land; to harass British shipping
from the Atlantic to the Indian
ocean and, above all, to immobilize
a large part of the British fleet in
the Mediterranean.
