CAUSE OF °FLU FOUND. The current month’s issue of the Lancet, leading British medical journal, makes the announcement that the primary causes of influenza have been discovered through a series of experiments carried out by three British doctors. The article asserts that as a result there can be no repetition of the major influenza epidemics such as occurred in 1918 and 1920, killing some 15,000,000 persons, according The four-power pact which has to statistics.

As to child labor, it probably is dead for all time. True, the National Recovery Act's life is lim- ited by law to two years, and the codes adopted under it can live after that period only by common agreement among industries. Yet the obvious bene- fits to industry itself from doing away with child labor even without the added argument of justice to children are certain to be great enough to insure the perpetuity of that step. Thus, what has been sought to be accomplished by Constitutional amend- ment without much success seems practically certain of attainment by reason of economic forces. and most useful arm of our country’s government. Juneau is glad, indeed, to have this opportunity to be host to those “boys in blue.” Never before has it hdd so many of them in its midst at one time. The five destroyers in the squadron are the largest fleet unit ever to visit this port. It has been many years since we greeted any part of the American Navy. We have had as our guests German and British ships and it was a pleasure to have them. It is much more pleasurable to greet now some of our own. Needless to say that this com- munity’'s doors are wide open to them and the “town is theirs” as long as they can remain. The Navy is America’s first line of defense. Alaska is its last frontier. It is probably one of the key points of defense in case of hostilities with any Far Eastern power bordering on the Pacific Ocean. More than that, it offers a highly useful defensive position for most of the Pacific Coast mainland of the country. The Navy ought to be more thoroughly familiar with Alaskan waters through cruises such as this one than it is. That, of course, is a good reason for the Navy to make annuale Alaskan cruises a part of its training pro- gram. We hope that the time will come when that policy will be adopted. Then we can hope to greet The Crazy Ones. (New York World-Telegram.) They jeered Copernicus's theory of the planetary system. They persecuted Galileo for demonstrating it. They laughed at Nikola Tesla for saying that cosmic rays rained on the earth. The years rolled on and vindicated the derided ones. Now, at 77, Nikola Tesla is carrying on in the old tradition, announcing again that he has some- thing new—this time the discovery of a hitherto “the . figet” more fTe““'?"“Y and get be“f" AC | nknown source “of energy—saying. - that probably quainted with as it improves lIts acquaintance ine woriq will laugh and once more call him crazy, with us. saying he does not care what tue world calls him, The present visitation of the destroyer squadron is not that kind of a cruise. It is in the nature of a “good will tour,” a recognition by the Navy Department that Alaska is an integral part of the country. It is rather an unusual gesture for us and one that we genuinely appreciate. We hope that its stay will be so pleasant that its officers and men will feel the urge to return many times. for the world will be wrong. Copernicus and Galileo and a valiant band of other pathfinders in the darkness of the race's ignorance were like that, too. Federal Loans Will Be Repaid. (Daily Journal of Commerce, Seattle.) Make no mistake about it; the loans made by the Federal Government to various communities and districts will be repaid.

R Confronted with the situation, Mussolini chose to practice a real- istic diplomacy. The four-power. pact is the visible sign of his de- cision to pursue a policy of stabil- ity rather than a policy of adven- ture. The pact recognizes Ger- many as one of the four great| powers of Europe, and concedes to Germany that moral equality which she ought never to have been denied. But at the same time the pact completely rejects the idea that Europe can be divided into two groups of powers, and it re- commits Germany and all the oth- ers to the whole system of treaties set up to preserve the peace. Thus, under Mussolini’s leadership, Hit- Power Pact many a network of treaties which the Nazi propaganda has consist- ently scorned. The most important aspect of the pact, however, is that a path has been definitely opened for a better understanding between [Italy and France. Not only has Fascist Italy drawn back from an alliance with Nazi Germany, but it has moved forward to a point where it is not impossible that a way will be found to compose, at least for a time, the rivalry betwesn France and Italy in central Europe. 20 YEARS AGO From The Empire JULY 24, 1913 Joseph MacDonald, on. the wit- ness stand in his own defense, told in detail of the struggle between himself and N. C. Jones, on the Treadwell plaza, May 14, 1902, in the course of which he shot Jones to his death. MacDonald swore that Jones said before he attacked him, “I've got to kill you. I don’t like' to do it, but I must obey.” He told his story quietly and clearly. The court room was filled and facing the accused mining man, as he told the story of ‘his life from the time he landed in the United s oae ‘The peace and the prosperity of central Europe depend upon an understanding between France and Italy. Without this understanding the new nations of the Danube Valley, which have arisen out of the wreck of the Hapsburg empire, cannot hope to make =sconomic ar- rangements which will permit them to prosper. For ten years every arrangement which these new na- tions might have reached has been vetoed by one or the other of the great powers. If these vetoes can be withheld, there is hope for cen- tral Europe. They will be with-| held only if France and Italy can understand each other. The next few months will show whether this is possible. In the meantime the position of the new nations of central Europe has been considerably strengthened by the conclusion of a series of treaties with Russia. These treaties of non- aggression, which are more prefise than any that have been written since the war, greatly reduce anx- jety all along the whole European frontier of Russia. In so far as treaties are to be relied upon, they are a new barrier against the re- vision of frontiers by military force. R Thus the next result of the crisis of the spring has been to confirm and solidify the existing | territorial boundaries. For the time being the idea of revision has been put entirely aside. Tt has been recognized that in fact the only kind of peace that Europe can have is peace based on the exist- ing frontiers. The alternative would be war, and once that al- ternative was clearly visualized in the crisis of last spring it was re- jected not only by France and her allies, who have always rejected it, but by Great Britain, by Rus- ler has accepted for Nazi Ger- Copyrignt, 1933, New York Tribune Inc. sia, and by Ttaly as well.
