sented and high-ranking officials of
the State Department, especially
those with the division of European
affairs were present.
A guest of outstanding popular
| ity in congressional circles was
Senator Arthur Capper, who was
being congratulated and greeted
with the traditional Many happy
returns" by every one, as Bastille
Day also happens to be his natal
day and he yesterday celebrated
his Both birthday anniversary.
Many other Senators and Repre-
sentativeS were there with their
wives, including members of the
Senate Foreign Relations Commit
tee and the House Committee on
Foreign Affairs, and delegates from
this country to the United Nations
Conference.
French predominated in many of
the groups as the natives of that
country chatted animatedly in their
own tongue, their happiness and
hope for the future showing plain
ly in their eyes and expressions.
Members Of the governing boards Of
United Relief for France and France
Forever were among the celebrants
and in addition there were many
personal friends of the Ambassador
and Mime. Bonnet, who have won
the admiration Of considerable
number of people since he assumed
his duties at this Capital.
Yesterday morning the Ambassa-
dor and Nine. Bonnet held open
house for all French residents now
in Washington, whether citizens of
this country or only temporarily
domiciled in Washington.
Traditionally the Embassy on
Bastile Day belongs to the people,
and during the hours of open house,
they drop in without formality to
pay tribute to their country, par
take of refreshments, chat with
each other and perhaps linger for
short time to enjoy what to them
is a little part of France.
If yesterday the tricolor was
in their eyes more beautiful than
ever before, or more symbolic, there
was good reason, and every one
who saw them enter or leave the
Embassy felt in their own hearts
the significance of the occasion and
joined with them in spirit in ap-
probation and gratitude for the
liberation from oppression of a
valiant race.

that the democracies did have a
League of Nations by which they
furthered their own aims. How
ever, when darker nations like
China and Ethiopia were at
tackled nobody did anything
about it with the result that the
League collapsed and war raw
aged the entire world. This has
been a grim lesson which states
men should not forget. But some

CAN'T THROW STONES
A summary of the San Fran
cisco Conference to date seems
to emphasize the cessation of
attacks on Russia and amore
honest investigation among ott-
er Allied Powers into their own
backyards. Nations can learn to
trade with each other without
adopting each others philoso-
phies. We don't want commune
ism in America but we certainly
emphatically do not want Brit
iSh imperialism either. And we
pray that Russia and other ma
tions will not inherit any of the
racial bigotries that we have in
America. The score is pretty
equal on all counts and the
quicker we admit it the better.
There isn't one among the
crowd who can afford to throw
stones"
If the United Nations will con-
cede that each has his faults
and join in aiding each other
to eliminate the woes of the
world then, and only then, shall
we make proper. progress toward
world peace. But, at the pres
ent time, the holier-than-thou-
attitude of many of the Sar
Francisco delegates makes the
whole affair a farce.
