But it is interesting that the

opposition to his plan.
This development suggests
that something remains t be
done for a clear Allied policy to-
ward Germany. One of the i'm
portant factors calling for revi-
sion of early concepts is h
changed position Of Britain since
the Nazis illustrated the possibil-
ity of highly destructive robot
bombing from the Continent. 1t
is doubtful that American opinion
has kept pace with this change.
Britain is now more than ever
part of Europe, while America
is still separated from it at least
by that narrow channel called
the Atlantic. The hard peace"
theory must gain faster among
a people who. the British, see
themselves so directly threatened
in the future. Mr.. Morgenthau's
plan acutely reflects this senti-

blasted awake in Britain, and to
some extent throughout the free

done by the Federal Security Administration

With our entrance into the war, few cities
had the set-up for combating venereal disease.
In some places clinics were started in the jails
or hospitals and some of them have had degree
of success. But the overflow has been so great
that local authorities could not cope with it, So
the FSA, together with the Public Health
Services, established camps.
Here the patients are not only healed of their
maladies but every effort is made to rehabilitate
them. And employment is found for them when
they are ready 10 be discharged

poor and the fallen for many years. "you know
how darn glad most Of them are TO be helped.
And you realize what miscarriage of justice and
wisdom their plight is.
"Ive not found many who would have made
free choice of their profession. Nor would
many have chosen it at all it, at the time Of
their dilemma. had someone been around to ad-
wise and give them help"
For full answer to the entire problem there
should be an overall program, arrived at through
conferences Of the United States Chdrens Blu
reau, the national and local welfare associations,
schools civic societies, the churches and the police
authorities.
II should include adult education classes and
parental guidance for mothers and fathers un-
able TO handle their young; classes in home-mak-
ing; proper housing facilities, with State and
Federal help where needed, but with the admins
tration resting within the community; more set
Elements such the Henry Street Settlement in
New York. better schools and better teachers;
and with curTicula adapted to the needs of the
times; in fact all the spiritual and material
sources of the community should be brought into
play TO retrieve the lost and TO prevent others
who might do so from following their example.
THERE should be proper recreation centers
such those mentioned here-places where the
youngsters Of high school age could blow off
steam Child labor laws regarding wages and
hours should be frightened instead of relaxed.
Where adolescent girls are employed in large num-
berS there should be expert woman councillor.
In many places the juvenile court system
needs thorough overhauling. The judges should
be chosen for spiritual attachments and not for
political reasons. The job should not be rotat-.
ing one from court to court as is now too often
the case but a steady one. Otherwise how can
they gain the necessary experience?
Girls detained for trial should be kept in a
properly constituted detention home and not in
contact with hardened offenders.
There seems to be no reason why in time
foster home system could not be built up along
the lines of that for younger children which the
Childrens Aid Society and kindred philanthropies
have proved TO be so effective. When they must
be sent TO institutions, then these institutions
should not be penal, but corrective and educatve
- For commercialiZed vice there is no panacea.
But there could be law which, if enacted would
go long way TO curb it. If the same penalty were
demanded from the man who buys as from the
woman who sells the answer would be automatic.
Men are chary of their secret sins. They do
not fancy having them exposed. Rather than
risk public condemnation they would refuse 10
buy. No one tries to sell for long what no one
wants 10 purchase.

ATLANTA, June 5.-The hooded

Imperial Wizard James A. Coles

for disbandment had been approved
by all members, and he added, II dc
not regard it as a subject for dis

Mr.. Colescott told the Journal
This does not mean that the khan
is dead. We simply released Local
chapters from all obligations, finan-
cial and otherwise, to the imperial
headquarters. I still am imperia

tain their titles, although. of course
the functions of all of us are sus-
pended. We have authority to re-
incarnate at any time"
The order claimed 100000 men,

1920s it began to decline. The ''im-
perial palace" here was sold to the
Catholic Church as a site for a
