OurDebt
BY Rush Taylor

IF you owe God anything, pay
it to man."
Are you doing your utmost for
your neighbor?
To write this challenge to the
most Disseminated against minor
ity in this country may seem a
strange thing to do, but there is
an authority for it found in the
fifth chapter of Matthew in the
Sermon on the Mount.
The blessing and commands laid
down in that sermon were not for
those who had wealth and privil-
eye and honor-Jesus preached to
them later-but it was to the hum
BILE flok who came to Him in Gal
lice. Not in a court or temple but
on rocky mount He taught his
disciples, saying, Love your en-
emies, bless them that curse you,
do good to them that hate you,
and pray for them which despite
fully use you and prosecute you."
And the multitudes followed
Him.
These be times that try mems
SOULS" they say. That is exactly
what they do. Not merely try
their brains or intellect, not their
powers, or even their hearts-but
their souls, without which they
would be as dumb beasts.
Are you in these days of trial
obeying the command so clearly
laid down and doing honor unto
God by your actions to your fell
low man. Are you doing as you
would be done by? Are you max
ing those whose path your path
crosses happier because you found
time to speak an encouraging word
or to do kind service? Is your
family glad for your presence
Have you missed an opportunity
of doing good? Is the going
rough, and do you feel you have
nothing to give? There is always
someone you can help some way
to pay your debt to God. m
For in the end it is said: "Then
shall he answer them, saying
Verify say unto you, Inasmucf
as we did it not to one of the least
of these, we did it not to me. And
these shall go away into everlast-
ing punishment: but the righteous
into life eternal"

bills as they now stand, Brigadier
General Frank T. Hines, head OF the
Veterans administration, told the
Senate subcommittee that Congress
was dealing with a very ticklish
public opinion" and faced the need
Of restricting all Government out
lays wherever possible because OF the
huge defense burdens.
ticklish public opinion, however,
Is not the only thing with which
Congress has to deal AS result OF
the huge appropriations necessary
for defense, as well as others of ques-
tionable need, the Nations financial
affairs are in a decidedly unhealthy
state, and this, too, is fact with
which Congress must deal. 1t Is to
be hoped that the Senate, having
this fact in mind and looking toward
an uncertain future, will reject the
proposed increase in pensions as be-
ing among those things which are
not necessary now and which there
fore should not be sanctioned.

Navy Censorship

For an explanation of the unpop-
uIarity and ineffectiveneSs of the
Navy Departments censorship Ell
forts one has but to examine the
unhappy experience of a group of
New York reporters last Wednesday.
The newspapers in that city were
notified that a gun was to be
mounted aboard a merchant ship
that day-the first in New York since
the am endment of the Neutrality
Act. When the representatives Of
the press arrived at the drydock,
however, they were informed that it
would be all right for photographers
to make pictures of the gun mount
ing, but that no reporters would be
admitted. After some argument
with Navy press relations officers,
according to the New York Times,
the reporters were admitted upon
condition that they write nothing
which would reveal the name of the
ship being armed or the caliber of
the gun.
These same press relations officers,
however, approved the release Of
photographs which showed every de-
tail of the gun, so that its caliber
could readily be determined by any
one familiar with weapons of this
character. And in the same issue of
the Times there appeared dispatch
from Washington in which Navy
spokesmen at the Capital, apparently
without the slightest hesitation, dis
closed the name of the ship on which
the gun was being placed.
This incident is small in itself,
but it is typical of the Navys inept
handling of press relations.
Obviously. there is certain informa-
ton pertaining to naval affairs which
should not be given to the press and
which should not be made public by
newspapers if it happens to come
into their possession. But it is just
as obvious that there are other facts
which could be published without
harm, and it is the Navy's mis-
handling of these items which has
resulted in most of the hostility to
the voluntary self-censorship which
the department has asked the press
to impose.
AS long as the Navy insists upon
indulging in such absurd inconsis-
tencies as censoring news in New
York which is freely given out in
Washington, its press relations prob
lem is certain to remain in the severe
| headache class

DR.. RuhIund's Free Hand

What District Commissioner Mason
had in mind when he told the House
District Committee that Health OFF,
Ger Rutland is being given "a free
hand" in his efforts to make WASH
ington a healthier city is not en-
tirely clear. 1t would seem idle to
talk of giving a free hand to any
public official who is under restraint
of inadequate appropriations as
DR.. Rutland has been. Doctor Ruh-
land undoubtedly is reasonably free
to prepare health program for the
District of Columbia and to ask for
authority and funds with which to
carry it into effect, but unless that
authority and those funds are forth
coming, via the devious Commission
erS-Budget Bureau-CongreSS route,
the health officer must remain seri-
CuSly handicapped
Representative Schultz advises
Doctor Rutland to get tough" to
put on boxing gloves and fight for
improvements he wants." but it is
pertinent to recall that Doctor Ruh-
land has been criticized in the past
by other members of Congress for his
aggreSsiveneSS in seeking funds for
the Health Department. Soon after
assuming his post in 1885 he began
campaign for a larger health budget
and at that time he was promised
full cooperation of the Commission
erS in his fight for additional appro-
priatiOnS. Year after year since then
he has sought more adequate funds
with which to expand health services
usually with only partial success.
For example, his estimates for the
current fiscal year were cut by more
than 100000. His efforts to secure
money for health centerS and Vene-
real disease clinics have been tireleSS.
Obviously, if the Health Officer really
is to be given a free hand" in any
realistic sense of that term, he must
be given the money, the staff and
the equipment he needs to perform
efficiently the difficult task imposed
upon him.

THIS AND THAT
BIZ Charles E. TrdceDeH.

There is always plenty of use for these
small feeding stations.
AS a general proposition, 1t is best to
put stations at least 30 to so feet apart,
and this for the very good reason that
it pleases the birds.
What one is doing, after all, when feed
ing the birds, is saving them from starVa-
ton, and at the same time pleasing them.
Now, the birds love, even above eat
ing, to fly, naturally enough.
If they can get real fly, from one sta
ton to another, they enjoy it immensely.
Time after time they will wing from
one part Of the garden to another
Like children on skates they go
through the air with the greatest Of
ease, and get real kick" out of the
motion.
There can be no question about this.
All one has to do is to establish two
feeding stations at appropriate Intervals
stock them with food and watch the
birds
They get real enjoyment out OF the
simple flying, as we'll as health and hap
piness from the eating.
No sooner are they eating away at
one place, than one bird suddenly
launches himself toward the other.
The rest follow after, with the famous
follow the leader" reaction which still
does duty through all the ranges OF lie,
from top to bottom of the scale.
The follow the leader" principle, in
deed. has been made into the philosophy
of several nations, with what results time
alone can tell.
Three feeding stations, forming ul-
angle in the yard, are perhaps as good
an arrangement as can be secured.
One of these can be near the house,
with the other two out in the garden,
roughly at the far corners, if this is
feasible.
1t is good if tree can be used as one
of the points of the triangle,
There is nothing in this world bird
| loves more than tree.
If he finds food there, all the better.
A feeding station is best placed on the
| trunk. about five or six feet up put
| sometimes it is more convenient 10 hang
| it from a bough, if it can be filled
easily there.
In hanging a feeding station in this
| Vav. be sure that strong wire is used, be-
cause squirrels will bite cord or rope II
two
| It is essential to remember that wire
| will cut tree branch, so the place Wherf
it goes around should be we'll PADDED
with cloth.
Doves. belonging to the pigeon family
are fond of cracked corn, which may b'
used in all mixtures intended for them
Most seed -eating birds will eat corn a
times.

Strike Controls

With three bills designed to curb
defense strikes already past the stage
of favorable committee action, and
with one and possibly two more in
the offing. Congress has taken an
initial legislative step toward the
elimination of labor controversies
which needleSsly and unjustifiably
impede the Nations defense effort.
The bill officially before the House
is that reported by its Labor Com
mittee-a mild measure which does
little more than re-eStabliSh and
strengthen the National Defense
Mediation Board, authorize a 60-day
ban on the organization" Of strikes
and give the President specific au-
thority to take over Strike-bound
defense plants. On the Senate side,
the Judiciary Committee has re-
ported the stronger Connally bill.
This measure authorizes the PreSi-
dent to take over struck plants and
provides. when that is done, that the
relationships between employer and
employees, except for wages, are to
be frozen" Under this provision,
Senator Connally believes, strikes
relating to the closed or open shops
and jurisdictional strikes would be
barred.
Also scheduled to be brought before
the Senate is the Ball bill modelled
after the Railway Labor Act, and in
the congressional background are
two other measures. These are the
Vinson bill, whose principal feature
is compulsory arbitration, and the
Smith bill, designed to prevent mass
picketing and violence by strikers
and iurisdictional and sympathy
strikes. This measure also would
require financial accounting by
unions and secret strike votes.
At this stage of the game it would
be a rash prophet indeed who would
attempt to foretell what ultimately
may come out of these varied legiS-
lative proposals. But it is obvious
that the several bills. taken in the
aggregate, offer effective machinery
for checking the activities of those
who put selfish interests and the
right to strike for their enforcement
ahead of the national welfare.
The Job which confronts Congress
Is to separate the good from the
bad, without regard to union threats
and lobbying activities or the appeals
of those who would use the national
emergency as an opportunity to
destroy laoor's legitimate rights. and
TO come to an agreement on some
anti-strike bill which will put the
welfare of all the people ahead OF
the excessive demands Of minority
groups. The task will not be an easy
one, but there is no reason why a
solution cannot be found If Congress
has the will to seek it.

'TickIish Public Opinion

Despite the fact that the Govern
ment has been obliged to incur bill
lions upon billions of dollars in new
debt to meet the threat of another
world war, and with the end not yet
in sight, spokesmen for veterans
organizations are attempting at this
time to secure Senate approval Of
two bills which would greatly in
crease the already large total Of
pension payments growing out of the
last war.
These bills, which are pending be-
fore a Senate subcommittee, have
passed the House. One of them
would increase total disability pay
ments to $40 month and provide
for the payment of similar
amount each month to veterans
sixty-fve years of age or over who
meet certain service requirements
notably those who served as little as
ninety days at training camp
This legislation, according to the
Veterans Administration, would cost
the country s52O,OOOOOO a year by
1862, and ultimately as much as
$4,000. 900, 900. The other bill would ex'
tend pension payments to depend
ents of World War veterans, including
widows, even though married aftel
the war, and to their children ano
parents.

Youth in Crime

The Ward LovelesS murder-noW
marked by police as solved-is made
doubly shocking by the revelation
that the accused prisoners are only
sixteen years old. They had run
away from home to avoid further
schooling. Both youths had been
leading an itinerant life as farm
hands.
The spirit OF reStlesSneSS Whlch
leads such unfortunate youths away
from social discipline and re-
straints and into paths of trouble IS
a matter of increasing concern to
sociologists and criminologlstS. BY
coincidence, the Federal Bureau OF
Investigation this week issued a
third quarterly crime trend bulletin
In which the predominance OF youth
in crime is set forth with impressive
figures. The report shows that dur
ing the first nine months of this
wear more arrests were made by po-
lice of the country among the l9-
year-old group than for any other
age classification. A study of finger
nrint records received during that
neriod disclosed that 83,130, or 17.3
ner cent, were of youths under q,
and that 31.3 per cent were OF per-
sons less than Is years old. 1t is
interesting to note that 34.4 per cent
of all crimes against property
(robbery burglary, automobile theft,
etc. were committed by youths VINO
had not attained their majority
Most of the murders were perpetrated
by men between the ages of twenty
one and twenty-nine.
The statistics for this year, more
over. are in line with those for
previous years. During five of the
past nine years, the F. B. 1. reports,
the age of nineteen predominated in
arrest records. The only exceptions
were in 1885. 1886, 1887 and 1888,
when the 21-year-old criminals were
In first place. 1t is because OF these
data that F. B. I. officials and other
students of the crime problem have
stressed the Importance of parental
supervision and wholesome home and
community influences in curblng
delinquency. And that is why they
are enthusiastic supporters of char

ALEXANDRIA,, VA.

Dear Sir:
To-day the fall and winter doves ar
rived.
Through the summer we have seen
off and on the three to five original dove
guests of the past three years; presum-
ably the original ones.
This afternoon there were about
dozen pairs on the feeder and beneath
it, but the interesting part regarding
them, which impels this letter, is that
they completely ignored new cupple-
mentary feeder erected within Is feet OF
the old, although it held an abundance
of grains and seeds similar to those of
the old.
1T is inconceivable to me, supposing
that some of these birds had fed here
last year, that they recognized the old
feeder. However, this they appeared
to do.
Every truly yours, r. J. B."
1t is a matter of location.
Birds will come back in the fall and
look for feeder which isn't there any
longer
They will go to the old location, despite
the fact that the box has been moved to
some other part Of the yard.
This shows a plain remembrance Of
something or other.
1t may be that the birds leave trails,
of a sort wherever they go. 1t might
even be that, like dogs, they can smell
where they have been. That is the
scent of bird life impels them to cer-
tain spot.
1t is well known that both dogs and
cats can detect scents which have long
vanished from the nostrils of human be-
ings.
The dove is an intelligent bird.
1t would be able to recognize the form
and color Of feeding station if any spe-
cies could DO so. Our belief is, however,
that the recognition comes of the place,
rather than anything else.
Certain sections of the country sur
rounding the Nations Capital-have more
doves than others. There are far more
of these birds in Virginia than in Mary
land. 1t is seldom that more than half
a dozen doves are seen at once in yard
in suburban Maryland, whereas reports
of two or three dozen are not uncommon
from nearby Virginia.
We believe that it is better to place
feeding stations farther apart than Il
feet. unless there is some peculiar rea-
son for doing so.
1t might be a good idea, for instance
to place two very small feeders at one
window, one on one side and the other
on the other side.
One feeder might hold simply cake
of suet, and the other handful o.
grains or seeds, or mixed.

Minister of Yugoslavia
Replies to Bulgarian Envoy.

To the Editor OF The Star
In his letter to The Star for November
81 the Bulgarian Minister again at
tempted to justify the act OF unprovoKed
aggression which his government and
people have committed against Yugo-
slavia. In support of his arguments he
quotes the opinions of Mr.. Churchill and
of the late Lord Grey, said to have been
delivered some 80 years ago.
Whatever the opinions OF these BRUSH
statesmen may have been prior TO the
present time, they can only be clteo 10
prove that at one time Britain may have
had confidence in Bulgaria. That this
confidence has been flagrantly abused
and was entirely unmerited is obvious
today. One need only refer TO Mr.
Churchills recent pronouncements on
the subject of Bulgaria and one can only
imagine what Lord Grey would nave
said, had he been alive to witness the
conduct. of a government which in spite
of treaty of eternal friendship has
seen fit to snatch the territory OF

of the Yugoslavs. They have taken up
arms against overwhelming odds. Ihey
fought alone against the combined forces
of Germany and Italy, which were joined,
in spite of their treaties of perpetual
friendship with Yugoslavia, by Hungary
and Bulgaria. They have fought bravery
and the continuation OF their fght 10
this day has won for them the respect
and admiration of the entire civilized
world. They will not rest until Hitler
ism and all it and its inglorious puppets
represent, is finally conquered.
One of the principal aims OF this war
is to restore the rule of order and decency
in international relations Nations can
not live and act like wild beasts that
lump on their prey as soon as 1t is weak
and exhausted. The Bulgarian Minister
wants us to wait for the verdict OF his
tory before Judging the acts of his nation.
History already has spoken. 1t has
spoken through the voices of the thou
sands and thousands of innocent victims
of the terror which the Bulgarian Army
has spread wherever it set foot on the
conquered territories. 1t has spoken
through the words of the President OF
the United States who did not hesitate
to describe Bulgaria's action as an act
of unprovoked aggression.
In every war during the past three
decades, whenever the forces of justice
and decency were pitted against those
of evil and aggression, Bulgaria found
herself on the latter's side. No words
of Schopenhauer, no opinions and no
tenuous arguments will erase this fact
