Traders of commodities are laying sup- plies away against the eventuality of war. Financiers are exhibiting unusual caution in the release of loans for major undertakings. Statesmen reflect in their pessimistic fore- | casts the uncertainty that has clutched the mental processes of the individual of every country. At a time when clear and rational think- ing is demanded by the exigencies of the oc- casion, the leaders of the world seem fagged of brain. Even the novice student of world affairs can see, that at this time, a major calamity is in the making. The deluge of opinions, recommendations emanating from the capitals of the universe will no more halt the colonial ambitions of Italy today than the diplomatic maneuvers that preceded outbreak of the) World war, the political jockeying that primed our own Civil war or the machinations of mon-; archs bent on stopping fruition of Napoleon's | dream of ruling the world. Mussolini has launched a snowball down the| mountainside of Europe that will continue to: grow bigger, that will pick up more national | fragments before its momentum is exhausted. Just where America will fit into the jig-} saw puzzle worries us not so much as how to keep from being drawn into the cataclysm. As Senator Nye points out, the seizing of an American ship by one of the belligerents might precipitate the United States into battle. Once var has commenced it takes little to involve others. The man on the street suggests that the easiest and most simple method of keeping America out of war is to put munition makers ir. the front line trenches. Equally naive is the proposal that all Ameri- cans and all American business having deal- ings with one or more belligerents be held per- sonally liable for what damage or harm may come to them. Or admitting the League of Nations is pow- erless to prevent the strong from subjugating the weak would be to allow Italy to take over dominion of Ethiopia as Japan swallowed up Manchuria. More important though is the necessity for America “keeping its head.” Governmental steps must be taken with firmness and fair- ness. America must not allow itself to be stampeded into combat. Maudlin sympathy, commercial greed, political advantage, financial inducements have no place in the keeping of Deace. America must think and act honestly. Public Holds the Bag The recent fight over the utilities holding company “ bill gave ordinary Americans a glimpse of the marvels that can be wrought through the judicious investment of a few dollars in the right kind of holding company. Now the announced auctioning by the House of Morgan of the Van Sweringens’ railroad securities is a reminder that the holding company is not a phenom- enon peculiar to the utility field. ‘The securities which Morgan is putting on the block carry with them control of nine great railroads whose shares have an aggregate book value of some $3,000,000,- 000, This control lies chiefly in some 2,112,042 shares of Allegheny Corp. which today have a value of slightly better than $3,150,000. The inner beauty of the holding company thus becomes clear. For a little more than $3,000,000, one “can buy control of railroads worth $3,000,000,000!

Total cost of the building will be in Washington By WILLIS THORNTON Washington, Sept. 20—Although the U. 8. Supreme Court will not officially be installed in its monumental new building until it meets there for the fall session Oct. '7, the justices are already “moving in.” Several have brought part of their equipment over from the historic old quarters in the Capitol building, and one of Chief Justice Hughes’ clerks is already be- ginning to get Hughes’ suite in order. The old-fashioned high-backed chairs have been brought there from the old courtroom and they look very odd indeed in the beautiful, new, up-to-date setting. Of course they will be replaced with modern furniture later. As soon as a huge rug is set and draperies hung in the magnificent court chamber, the central feature of the new building, it will be virtually completed after four years of work. eee GREAT COLLECTION IS GIFT The Gerry collection of 36,000 volumes, legal reports and treatises, old vellum-bound tomes in Latin and Greek dating back 400 years, and general volumes relating to law and police administration, has already been installed in the justices’ library, ‘ This collection was made by the late Elbridge T. Gerry and presented to the court by Senator Peter G. Gerry of Rhode Island, son of the collector. It is expected to extend the collection by continuing series of reports already begun. A special act was requir- ed to accept the books, and Librarian Oscar Clark is |among those who hope that a general law may be passed jenabling the Supreme Court library to accept donations | generally as does the Library of Congress. | The latter is loaning some 25,000 volumes to the Su- jpreme Court to grace its shelves, which have room for nearly 250,000. Other law collections have already been offered the court. «ee DAZZLING PILE OF MARBLE It is hard to believe that there is anywhere else in the world so utterly dazzling @ pile of marble as this building. The exterior is of white Vermont marble, the interior of Alabama marble, with Georgia marble facing the four interior courts. About the main court chamber stand huge columns walls, marble columns and pillars, entablatures, pedi- ments and friezes. Such wood-carving as graces the heavy white-oak woodwork of readirig rooms, dining rooms and private Judicial suites has seldom been achieved in this country. Medallions, friezes, borders, basreliefs cut into the oak Panelings. It, is all very beautiful, very massive and dignified, close to $11,000,000. cee FRIEZES MAGNIFICENT When the judges take their seats in October to pro- nounce thelr verdict on New Deal legislation, they will sit at the head of what is certainly one of the most im- Pressive chambers in the world. Sculptured friezes run around the four walls at the high ceiling. At the sides of the room march Menes, Hammurabi, Moses, Solomon, Lycurgus, Solon, Draco, Confucius, and Octavian, Justi- nian, Mohammed, Charlemagne, King John, 8t. Louis, Grotius, Blackstone, Marshall and Napoleon. The justices will look straight at a magnificent frieze portraying Justice flanked by Truth and Wisdom, with opposing powers of good and evil at either side. And to right and left of those are groups symbolizing “Safeguard of the Rights of the People in Their Pursuit of Happiness,” and “The Defense of Human Rights.” eee ARCHITECT FACES BIG JOB The job of air-conditioning the whole of the Capitol is giving Architect David Lynn plenty to think about. ‘The Capitol is a different problem from a modern build- ing. Parts of it, of course, are 135 years old, whole huge bulk more or less “just growed.” So in his office far down in cavernous depths be- oe that will take the best part of two years to com- plete.

Y., the other day, Mr. Roose- velt recalled the skepticism which first greeted his pro- Posal, during the presidential campaign, that such s corps be established. But the “idle dream” had become ‘@ living fact, and the president expressed no little satis- faction with the record. In his opinion, the country can well afford to send 300,000 young men annually to conservation camps to continue the activities begun as a depression experiment in job-making. Whether public sentiment would favor the con- tinuance of the CCC on such a substantial scale for an indefinite period after the emergency which inspired it had passed is by no means certain. But there is no uncertainty at all about the high esteem in which the CCC, as a work relief agency, is generally held. If the corps’ activities do not eventually become a permanent Part of national policy, as Mr. Roosevelt hopes they will, they may at least always serve as a model for federal unemployment projects. as For the CCC is performing a highly useful work, and it is performing it on the whole, economically and efficiently. As a result of it, a tremendous impetus has been given to conservation in this country, and some- thing like a million young men have been helped through the depression unemployment crisis. So long as any semblance of that crisis remains, and so long as the corps fills a genuine conservation need, jthe CCC will have few critics. As for placing it on a Permanent 300,000-man basis, that is another matter which must be left to the future to decide. In the |meantime, Mr, Roosevelt will be pardoned his pride in jthe conservation camps; they have, in fact, fulfilled a (splendid vision.
