The admission of parity was an admission we should have made to no other nation. Disagreement sprang from the difficulties of applying the principle of parity to two countries with such divergent naval needs. The difficulties were temporary and they would be solved. The cause of all the talk about Anglo-American relations was not that relations w seriously impaired but that we were peculiarly sensitive to any- thing which even med to deviate from se A STRONG CABINET. ‘\ g | | ris Adams of Massachusetts, Secre of the N and James J.

Except Mr. Good there i not one on the list that could be called a politician, notwithstanding that Mr. Mellon has been figuring | in very recent years in Pennsylvania politic: And | Mr. Good retired from politics eight years ago when he moved from Iowa to Chicago to practice law. is a He was active last year again in behalf of the nomination .md election of Mr. Hoover. The Empire has already commented upon Mr. Stimson. Mr. Mellon is too ‘well known as a great; Secretary of the Treasury to make comment neces- sary. Mr. Good was a very able member of Con- gress for seven terms. Early in his service he be< came a leader, and was Chairman of the Appropria- tions Committee im the House when he resigned | from Congress. He is 62 years old. William D. Mitchell never served in a public office until he was appointed Solicitor-General, for which he was selected wholly on account of his pre- eminent legal ability. President ferred to him when he made it known that he was looking for a lawyer and not a politician to fill that office.- He was particularly pleased with the record of Mr. Mitchell. When he was told that he was a Democrat, the President declared that it was a good thing, for then he would not want to mix in politics in a Republican Administration. His father was a Justice of the Supreme Court of Minnesota for twenty years. The prospective Attorney-General studied to be an electrical engincer, but changed his mind and, after taking an A. B. degree at the University of Minnesota, studied law at. the same school. For a quarter of a century he practiced law, except for the time he served in the Spanish War and the World War. He was senior member of the firm of Mitchell, Doherty, Rumble, Bunn and Butler. The firm had a large corporation practice. Charles W. Bunn was chief counsel for the Northern Pacific. Pierce Butler was attorney for the Milwau- kee and other railroads, and was later appointed Justice of the United States Supreme Court. It was this appointment that caused the disolution of the law firm and released Mr. Mitchell so that he was available for appointment as Solicitor-General. He is 54 years of age. Charles Francis Adams is a direct descendant of two former Presidents of the United States, a distinguished member of one of our most distinguish- ed families. He is an officer in a score or more leading banks, trust companies and other corpora- tions. He practiced law until the death of his father when it became necessary for him to devote his time to business matters. He has been Treas- urer of Harvard College Corporation for more than thirty years. The only political offices he ever ‘held were City Councilman and Mayor of Quincy, Mass. “Who's Who in America” does not give his political affiliations. He is a famous amateur yachts- man and was amateur skipper of the Resolute in her successful race in defense of the America's Cup in 1920. He is a member of the Eastern Yacht Club and of the Quincy Yacht Club. He is 62 years orf age Like Mr. Mellon, Mr. Davis has been a very efficient member of the Cabinet of President Hard- ing and Coolidge for eight years. If the members to be named shall be in the class with those that have been announced, Mr. Hoover will enter the Pre cy with one of the strongest Cabinets to be selected in recent times. A TROUBLE THAT WON‘; HAPPEN. Eben Holden said in his deathbed soliloquoy that he had had many troubles in his time, “most of which never happened.” That has been the case with most of most people's troubles. That seems to be the way the trouble between the United States and Great Britain over the cruiser building programs will end. It won't happen. Already it is being discovered in England that the “diffeernces between the two countries are not at all important and the strain is being relieved.

It hardly adds an extra touch of the melodramatic to find . Commander Dyott writing th‘_t “there is good rea- 'son to beli that Fawcett’'s gtories of a forgotten civilization are based on fact, and that at one time a race existed in this region entirely different from any other of the South American Continent.” Greater Saskatchewan. (Ncwy York Times.) Saskatenewan, taird in population of the Canad- ian Provinces, with an area of 251,700 square miles, is seeking an outlet to the sea at Chesterfield Inlet on Hudson Bay and expansion north to Corcnation | Gulf, 200 miles beyond the Arctic Circle. An ap- plication has been made to the Dominion Govern- ment by Premier Gardiner, who says: We claim that our natural mineral area extends out of the northern part of our Province into the territory that we are ask- ing to be added to the Province. Second, the natural outlet to the sea from this mineral area to the Hudson Bay is through Ches- terfield Inlet. The land which Saskatchewan desires to annex is'a part of two vast Northwest Territories, which are bounded by Hudson Bay on the east, the Arctic on the north and Yukon on the west. Manitoba will have something to say about the acquisition of the Chesterfield Inlet region by Saskatchewan, for it lies directly north of Manitoba’s border. The North- western Territories known as Mackenzie and Kee- watin would have a more rapid development if they were divided among Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta. The last also claims mineral resources and bids fair to be rich in oil. British Columbia, front- ing on the Pacific, might put in a claim for the great Mackenzie River Valley, if there is to be a division of the lake and barren country. It would seem to be only fair to give Saskatche- |wan access to northern Hudson Bay at Chesterfield Inlet, for Manitoba has Port Nelson, which is des- tined to be a railway terminal. At the root of the whole matter is the belief that there may be a great deal of mineral wealth above the sixtieth degree of latitude. The Crow Dynamiter. (Louisville Courier-Journal.) The dynamiting of a erow roost, by which an Oklahoma farmer killed 2,692 birds in two blasts, was wanton slaughter, encouraged, it is true, but a State bounty law but without legitimate excuse. The farmer used 300 pounds of dynamite and he and two neighbors took in something more than $150 in boun- ties, but they will lose much more by their act eventually. 7 Fifty years ago, many of the older generation may remember, the country had no such number of insect pests as toflay harass the farmer. Locusts there were, and locusts there probably always will be, but the thousand varieties of worms and moths and creeping things that pester the orchardist and grain grower were practically unknown. The grass-‘i hopper was- just beginning to make itself felt in the West. Destruction of the birds and birds' breeding places has brought the bugs. Today the annual loss to agriculture from insects is placed at $770,000,000 by the United States Department of Agriculture. What is the bill*of destruction caused by crows? It is practically negligible, if the truth were known.
