ARCTIC CLUB DINNER-DANCE WEDNESDAY ALL RIGHT"
(Contr ibuted)

(COntrlbuted)
 Last Wednesday night the Arc tice Club held it's second din- her dance and presented the ski trophies to the winners for the 1940 ski season. Those receiving trophies and prizes were: Charles O'Leary, Freddy Kubon, Eddie Higgenbotham and Jean Hilshie.
 Is that pessimist around who was overheard last month saying: "The Arctic Club will certainly have hard time putting on an- other party as successful as the first one"
 We think Walter Glavinovich missed his calling as the party Wednesday was equally as suc- cessful as the first. It was a real Spring Balloon dance and from the moment the crowd arrived everything and everyone was up in the air.
 The dedication numbers were clever, the high light, we think, being the one dedicated to Larry Calvin -''The Man Who Comes To Our House."
 Neva Whaley entertained with a new dance number which. as usual, was good. Everyone was glad she and Cinderella wore the same size shoe.
 Finally we wish to congratul- ate Charles Esch on the manner in which he handled the role of Master of Ceremonies and we are sure that all members will join him at the next Arctic Club affair sometime this summer and will be prepared for moquitoes, sand in our shoes, and ants in our sandwiches.

Present-Day Immigrants
Held Un-American.
To the Editor OF The Star:

10 the Editor OF the star:
The pouring Of European refugees into
this country presents a serious problem.
Immigrants Of former days came to
America through choice. unlike these
through compulsion.
In an address delivered years ago in
New York to the alumni Of Union Theo-
logical Seminary, Robert Watchorn, q
very able former commissioner of immi-
grafton. said that the old-time immigrant
was already an American before he had
set foot on American soil. AS he titled
his home acres he had American ideals
and vision Of America in his heart. The
land Of his birth had become . foreign
land to him. America was the land Of
his choice.
But these refugees are different. They
have come to America through reasons
Of necessity or expediency. They are still
Europeans in thought, heart and senti-
ment and 1t is very problematical
whether they will ever become good
Americans.
We have too many Europeans here al
ready, mean Europeans with the Eu-
ropean outlook on life. We want no more
Of these people who are secretly and
often openly, hostile or inimical to Amer
lea, Q country they dislike and despise.

to military service. it would be fair to
all and would greatly expedite the pre-
paredness program. This would enable
the President, with one registration, to
determine the entire man power available
for any and all duties necessary to carry
out this program. We all could be finger
printed, grouped and sorted according to
our qualifications in short order and the
President could then intelligently call
into active service such as the exigency
may require.
Let us have this law for universal
military service for all citizens between
Is and IS passed at once. II the Con-
gressmen believe they would be of more
service to their country in Congress than
in the military service. let them exclude
themselves from the act, as the voters
back home can ultimately decide that
issue. One trouble with our Congress is
that too many politicians have been try
ing to NIL the shoes Of statesmen. A few

out substance? These aspirations
are closely. inextricably woven into
the dearest traditions and ideals Of
this Nation. No movement in WASH
ington has ever enlisted such united
and consistent support Of the people
here as the movement for national
representation. The existence of
that sentiment can be put to any
test that can be devised. The result
will be the same. Petition after petit
ton, resolution after resolution, in
Congress and out, have urged the
detectives sought in the Summers
amendment.
Are Washingtonians, denied their
right Of voice in the Government
which taxes them and can send them
to war, to be ridiculed because their
political helplessness renders them,
in comparison with the powerful
voice Of the voters, feeble in their
means Of self-expression?

Education and Defense

ACADEMIC education OF youth Is as
important In a well-rounded national
defense program as physical train
ing, military instruction and voca-
tional courses. It would be unfor-
tunate, indeed, II the regular educa-
tional program of our schools and
colleges were to be adversely affected
by current preparations for defense.
President Roosevelt's belief that there
is no need for conflict between these
preparations and the work of edu-
eating young. people to become in
telligent, valuable members of the
community is well founded. It was
this belief which prompted him yes
terday to announce that at this time
1t is the patriotic duty" Of young
citizens to complete their planned
courses at school or college before
seeking to enlist in the military or
naval forces Of the Government.
Mr.. Roosevelt issued his statement
after Security Administrator Paul v.
McNutt had advised him that the
country's universities and other in
situations Of higher learning have
reported a tendency of students to
withdraw from their courses to join
the Army or Navy or to offer them
selves for employment in vital de-
tense industries. Others, Mr.. Nc
Mutt told the President, plan to
await the outcome of the conscrip-
ton program. The President pointed
out, In response, that the country
needs well educated and intelligent
citizens" to deal with the difficult
problems confronting the Nation.
Fortunate is the young man who,
when the hour for service to his
country arrives, has received the
advantages Of maximum of instru-
ton in the sciences, economics, his
tory and the other subjects taught
in our schools. His usefulness as a
citizen or soldier will have been ap-
probably enhanced by reason Of his
specialized knowledge.
This problem Of correlating educa-
ton and defense Is one deserving Of
the most serious study by those who
are formulating Americas program
of preparedness, especially those
phases having to do with selective
military training and the mobili-
cation of the National Guard and Of
reserves. Until the need for young
men Of school age becomes acute, it
might well be found advisable to
defer training or mobilization of
young men who desire to complete
a normal college course. Or ar
rangements might be made whereby
drafted students could be furloughed
during school terms. There is no
reason why civil education and mill
tary training should not be inte-
grated for the purpose of providing
a reservoir of intelligent, efficient
man power for defense.

Scores Political Opponents
OF Draft Bill.

OF Draft Bill.
To the Editor Of The Star:
Is it possible that some Of our most
prominent Senators are mere politicians?
Are they playing politics when they as.
sert that they will fight the selective
draft when America insists on prompt
preparedness against aggression, and
those qualified to advise on methods in
sist that the draft is the only feasible
means to secure men necessary for train
ing? We have faith in the conclusions
Of President Roosevelt. Secretary Of
War stimson, Army oficers and Of the
National Defense Advisory Commission.
Surely these men who have studied the
problem, some Of them for many years.
and all of whom have knowledge Of facts
concerning the need of haste, would not
advise the draft were 1t not imperative.
We voters want prompt and adequate
defense and we want it in the shortest
time possible to effect 1t. Breast-beating
politicians who gesture to the gallery ex.
pecting the gratitude Of the electorate
will be disappointed in November.

Toward Cleaner Streets

At least three items interesting to
those who have fought for cleaner
streets in the Nations Capital have
been included in the 1912 budget
estimates submitted to the Commits
sioners by the City Refuse Depart
ment calling for $2,14S,740, an
increase Of $646,540. About half Of
this increase would be used to build
a new incinerator.
In the first place, William A. Kan
ten, supervisor Of the department,
has asked for sixty-seven new men,
all but seven Of whom would be used
directly in cleaning up the streets.
The seven would be drivers.
Despite the thirty-six per cent
increase in the population during the
past decade, Mr.. Xanten has been
handicapped by steadily decreasing
labor force. During those ten years
he has lost forty-two per cent Of his
labor in one way or another, until
now he operates with 100000 less
man hours annually than he did in
1880.
slashes in appropriations only
partly explain the loss. Changes in
labor conditions have brought about
a situation where the same amount
Of money will buy only halt Of the
labor it could purchase twenty years
ago. In addition to the wage in
creases still other things have re-
duced the effectiveness Of the de-
partment, such as halt holidays,
annual and sick leave and maximum
working hour limitations.
Hence, with the appropriation Of
$445,160 for street cleaning alone for
the present year, he is able to hire
per diem workers only 6n a thirty-six
hour basis. Funds will permit no
more.
In the second place, MIR. xanten
has asked, in addition to the new
men, funds which will permit him to
put his per diem employees on forty
hour week, thus providing still more
coverage and leading to what might
be described as a normal working
hour schedule.
The third item Is interesting be-
cause 1t is new. Mr.. Xanten has asked
for I'VE motorcycle pickup men to
cruise the suburbs to answer COM
plants concerning improperly placed
trash, and also to educate various
types Of offenders with whom they
might come In contact. This mobile
