It has been the same story| on countless occasions. This mercy organization is always present to give aid to human kind. i But while its work is great in time of disaster | and in war, its activities throughout the year in taking| relief to thousands, helping veterans, widows, orphans and carrying on a general program of human rehab- ilitation stamps it as the world’s outstanding mercy organization. The work the Red Cross did in helping destitute humans during the first stages of the econ- | omic depression that swept the country, and before Government aid became a universal thing, should go down in the records as one of the finest acts of philantrophy this nation has ever witnessed. Monday, Armistice Day, the Red Cross begins its snnual roll call which lasts until Thanksgiving Day.

That once famous city, which held first pages in newspapers in the latter years of the last century, burned in 1934 and has becn rebuilt this year. Its remaining citizens are proud of the new Nome with its wider streets, in trim new buildings. Probably it has concrete sidewalks, bright signs; probably there are gold-lettered windows which tell of tea “shoppes,” croquignole permanents and 3.2 beer. But the joy and pride are confined to Nome. There is no joy here in the States over the rise of the new city on the ashes of the old. The present Nome population is a disappointment. In the heart of every vigorous boy reared in the States in the '90s and fired by the tdles of riotous living along the main street of Nome, there was a consuming desire to get to that alluring place, by hook or crook. Some of the youths actually left school and did it. Ncme was of much greater interest to the bud- ding man of that day than is Ethiopia or any other center of activity now. It stood for Nature and manhood in the raw. J And now they have rebuilt Nome along sane lines, probably giving it the tame ap- pearance of scores of our own more primitive cities in the West. The irregular property line on the main street has gone, the glar- ing signs on plank and clapboard indicating long-outlawed proceedings within were burned away and the sidewalks have been reduced Ruth Nichols, one of America's ace airwomen, w. fatally, when the big 20-passenger plane in which the: airport.

Nome has become commonplace. It will take a lot of new gold thereabouts to draw the sourdough back or pull hither the most adventurous youth of the '30s. True, the old Nome landmarks are gone in ashes and so, too, has gone some of the glamour of the '90s, but it cannot be overlooked that Nome, along with all Alaska, is only in its infancy so far as future great- The ships will come again, to Nome and other parts of the North, and they will be crowded; crowded with those who are looking forward and not backward. And they will return to the States loaded with the millions in gold and.other riches yet un- tapped, only to return again and again. Let them in Missouri look to the '90s if they must, but we in the North look to the future, not satisfied to rest on the laurels of gold rush days. In the words of the old sourdough, “Nome will always be Nome.” Scientists say the trouble down at Helena is “growing pains” in the Big Belt Mountains, but we bet the Montanans in that district: have another name for it It looks as though Great Britain is one up on Italy. A son of the English royal house has cap- tured a bride while the best the son of Mussolini has been able to do so far is capture a few Ethiopians. Clever but Wild. (New York Times.) One of the war photographs from Ethiopia shows a line of native soldiers near Harar fleeinz from a trench under the fire of Italian airplanes. The pictuic was taken by a cameraman on the spot and sent by native runner to Diredawa. Thence it went by rail to Djibuti. Then it went by plane to Cairo, where it was relayed by another plane to London. Thence it went by wireless to New York. This makes it easy to frame a succinct and illum- inating definition of the word “Man.” Man is & biped of the genus Homo who invents the camera to master the light waves, invents the airplane to master the air waves, invents the wireless transmitter to master the radio waves, invents the printing press to master the limitations of space and time, and crowns it all by dropping bombs on his fellow-men in Ethiopian trenches, Paris churches, London public parks, ete.

Publi entiment and Policy. (Cincinnati Enquirer.) Usually a large undertaking to muster public opin- fon for a ¢hange of public policy seems discouraging in its immediate results. Mass demonstrations, straw votes, and the gathering of petitions rarely produce | a prompt response among the leaders who formulate | official policy. But such enterprises eventually carry some weight. In speaking to the Foreign Policy Association re- cently, Mr. Leland Stowe pointed out that an import- ant factor in Great Britain's vigorous policy at Geneva is the so-called “peace poll” taken in England last spring. In that unofficial poll taken by the British League of Nations Association, more than 11,000,000 Britons not merely expressed their eager desire for peace, but indorsed the active support of the League of Nations. A great majority approved the use of economic sanctions to uphold the League Covenant. There was no immediate result. But when the crisis came months later at Geneva, the British Gov- ernment was able to embark on a far-reaching and vigorous policy, knowing that the great mass of the British people were in sympathy. This has some im- portance for the United States, where an unpreced- ented effort is being made to muster public opinion behind a policy of peace. The petitions for peace *w being widely cir- culated through the country are vague, and they do not give the signers an opportunity to register a choice of policies, as did the British “peace poll.” But even with these shortcomings, the enterprise seems a good one. It indicates in a vivid way the overwhelming concern of the American people for a course of peace. Perhaps most important of all, such efforts bring vital problems to the attention of in- dividual citizens, leading them to interest them- selves more keenly in national policies than make for peace or war. Ethiopian sharpshooters had the insolence to fire at a plane piloted by Mussolini’s son, when all he did was drop a few bombs on them.—(Chicago News.) as critically injured and five others were hurt, one y were riding crashed and burned at the Troy, N.
