Europe, always overcast with war clouds, is again looking with alarm ds Germany evades direct answers to all the features embodied in the London security program which has the endorsement of France and Italy. The Reich has hinted it might g0 along on an air pact but a golden silence has ensued when more general to peace agreement has been broached. It is admitted in European diplomatic circles that the famous Treaty of Versailles is dead so far ts its effectiveness is concerned and now the “big three” of Europe—Britain, France and Italy—are determined agreement a to act. In plain words they have said that if Ger- many will not go along on a program for peace until economic conditions are improved, they stand ready to join in forcing the issue. They doubtless hold the balance of power in Europe at the present time but it is unlikely they will use it for it is evident that no single nation across the sea can afford 2 war. There are many indications that several could on small pretense be imbued with the spirit of armed clash, but wars cost money and none of the nations have an ade quate supply of mon or credit to carry on a successful conflict of any duration Thus peace loving people need not be overly alarmed when the great powers make faces at one another.

More than sixty concerns have been licensed to reproduce him in book form, on package covers and on toys! Let it be noted, however, that Mickey's guardians are careful that he lends his name and to nothing upon which mothers may frown. ness likeness Memorials to Congress. (Tacoma Ledger.) There can be little exception taken from the re- mark of Senator Morrow of King County that “It i time for the Senate to stop playing like boys on measures like this. It is time to get down to busi- ness.” The measure to which the King County Sen- ator referred was the memorial introduced by Scott M. Ryan urging Congress to enact the Townsend $200 a month old age pension Possibly the Morrow amendment to that memor- ial, directing that it be sent to the Washington State Hospital [Asylum] at Steilacoom instead of to Congress had not a little to do with the shelving of the memorial. There will be general agree- ment with the further remark of Senator Morrow that he thought it might be well to allow Congress to run the United States, the Stale Senate to Editor and Manager the ‘ | | of Washington | | confine its activities to affairs concerning the State Of course the Constitution of the United States | guarantes the right of the citizen to petition Con- gress and of State Legislatures to memorialize LhE national b but obviously those provisions were designed to open the doors for requests or demands upon Congress in matters upon which the people are agreed and which Congress seems reluctant to grant, but obviously memorials upon a highly controversial | mater could not properly come from a State Leg-| islature There are many important matters pending before » State Legislature—matters on which the people | e have a direct and keen interest. State tion, not to speak of the institution that might promise increased efficiency cost to the taxpayers are all matters| with whic he Legislature could well concern itself ead wrangling over memorials saking Con- gress to do or refrain from doing something. The people of the United States elected certain men to go to the national -capital to enact general laws for the nation and the people of the State of Washington elected men to represent them in the State Legislature. Doubtless members of Con- sress are as fully aware of the value or worthless- ness of pending legislation or suggestions as could be th(' Washington State Legislature, and it might il if our representatives at Olympia devoted jor part of their time to the State problems rather than the more important body now national capital. >mies at a les: of solution of | to seek to in session peculiar advise at the Upon First Seeing Snow Fall. | (New York Herald Tribune.) of our correspondents arriving at the oifice erday from the hinterland of New Jersey re- eloquently upon his young daughter's first of a snowstorm. His own spectacles were rimmed with snow, and he bore every evidence of having had one of those hard tussles with the elements which keep our commuters the sturdy pioneers that they are. The daughter, aged nine months, was held up to the window to observe this 12w sky, white and whirling. She opened her mouth in amazement and uttered sounds plainly expressing at the least a wild surprise. It would be a rather good test of the youth and freshness of any adult mind to know how it reacted to yesterday's beauty. Snow on the ground, snow on the roof of a great city, has its merits. So has a hoar frost of a motionless fog. But nothing in all nature holds the excitement of falling snow. 0°'New Yorkers, in a year like the present, when snow comes late, it is perhaps not hard to blink with mazement when the sky suddenly begins to move n every pattern of the dance. But, rare or fre- juént, the thrill is always there for any eyes that an still see. Here is no question of association with the past, with bobs and bells.

What we are praising is metamorphosis through which Dawn can be far more splendid; moon have their occasional magic. But here, the sky turns white, is an utterly new transforming everything natural or human into a single vivid beauty. It moves, like the particles within the atom, like the spheres of the solar system, lik everything that lives; and, like every moment that is perfect, it is silent. Perhaps this soundlessne: especially in a city of dreadful noise, is its greatest marvel. For with the snow comes a hush, as if even the busiest and most raucous of humans-had paused, with open mouth, like the nine-months-old daughter, to admire and worship.
