His real glory was the Pax Augusta, which later grew !into the Pax Romana, which gave the empire and the world the longest period of quiet and prosperity ever known to mankind. That peace showed periodic wars are not necessary. They need not be a fixed order of existence. It is the splendid model of the Pax Romana which should be an inspiration to the modern world when at least the time comes to lay deep and strong the foundations of a new rule and a new order. It is often said the Pax Romana rested upon the power of the Roman legions. That is not the case. It was Roman ldw, dispassionate justice, which ad- | ministered without fear or favor.

Along with Howse are numerous colonels he has recruited from Gen. B. B. Somervell's army of econ- omic royalists to help run Surplus' Property. Their idea is to get rid of war goods as fast as they can, no matter who gets them . . To some extent this is necessary . . . On the other hand, Congress set up an excellent set of principles in the Surplus Property Act by which small business is not to bé' left out in the cold, while veterans, schools, universities and municipalities get first crack at the vast grab-bag of left-over war goods. Ciyil war over the Aluminum Corporation is the best illustration of the big business vs. little busi- mess row inside Surplus Property - The big business group was ready to let ALCOA buy some of the best machine tools in the coun- try, now .governmenf-owned . and Joaned to ALCOA for war produc- tion . . . This question of ALCOA’s monopoly has raged bitterly ever sinee Andrew Mellon, father of the ‘glant ; company, was Secretary of the Treasury, with an anti-trust case against ALCOA hanging fire in the courts for twelve years ...
