In urging readjustment of railway rates, speedy decision as to what taxes are to be imposed, early settlement of the tariff question, measures to sta- bilize foreign exchange, readjustment on a practical basis of the debt owed this country by Europe, and limitation of world armaments, the conference adds the weight of its voice to the general pressure for the accomplish- ment of undertakings already under 'way, and thereby performs an obvious ‘hut useful public service.

Columbus Day. Men are celebrating toddy the époch- marking discovery which Christopher Columbus, - Genoese in the service of the Spanieh king and queen, made 429 vedts ago. It was the 12th day of Oc- tobert when Columbus reached ene of thé Bahanias, and because of a cor- rection of the calendar in 1752 the 12th vf October in the life of Columbus cor- responds to the 21st in our time. But that fas &7 been thrashed out, and we observe the 12th. A day, or nine days, makes no eéssential difference. ‘We date the discovery of America ‘from 1432 because it was a record- making discovery, and the record was put upon the pages of history so that all men who could read might fead. ‘It came at & time when the world was _waking into enlightenment.

M.
