THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON. T. €. THURSDAY. NrARCH 28 1929, Now we learn that Nero did not fiddle while Rome burned. In the first place, the fiddle had not yet been invented. In the second place, poor old Nero was 50 miles away when it happened. & Maybe he was taking ukulele lessons from Wesley Eddy.

Dozen and Half-Dozen Car COOLIDGE OUTLINES NEED FOR DEFENSE |Adequate Forces Called Best Way to Insure Peace and Keep Order. By the Associated Press. | PHILADELPHIA, March 28.—Calvin | Coolidge, writing in the April number | of the Ladies’ Home Journal on “Pro- | moting Peace Through Preparation for | Defense,” says the force required for | {adequate national defense should “be | |large enough so that others would see | that there would be a great deal of peril involved in attacking us.” | “They shculd not be so large,” the former President says. “that our coun- | try would feel that we would undergo no peril in attacking others.” | The article will be the first of three | by Mr. Coolidge to appear in the Ladies’ Home Journal on the subject of pro moting peace. “The duty of a government is order,” continues Mr. Coolidge. “We are told that it is heaven's first law. In our day we have come to take order for granted | as something almost self-existent, but | it is not. In fact, it is very difficult to maintain as we are constantly reminded by recurring waves of crime, and the outpreak of warfare. Order is of the first importance. because without it we could have no liberty and no progress. Property would be of little value, every | home would be insecure and all life in danger. Anarchy’s Perils Battled. “When the test comes the people will | give up almost any other human right ‘0 secure safety and protection. When- aver anarchy imperils a State, a mili- tary dictator always appears, because the people prefer him to the lawlessness of the mob.” “One of the methods,” Mr. Coolidge writes, “by which each government undertakes to preserve order so that it may protect its people from domestic violence and foreign hostilities is known as preparation for national defense. The great object that it all seeks to ac- | complish is peace, peace for the citizen at home and peace for the citizen abroad. Preparation runs all the way from the policeman on the corner, who is our first line of defense, to the Army | and Navy, with their supporting forti- | fications and bases. | ‘We do not have these for the purpose of making war, but for the purpose of preserving peace. The ability to pro- tect the people within its borders and to insure to them the security which can | {only come from the orderly administra- | tion of law. is so much and so peculiar- ly the first requisite of every govern- ment that under international usage civilized nations do not recognize a gov- | ernment which cannot or does not meet these obligations. “Our Army can be small, because we are peaceful at home and far removed | from attack by land. Also an army can be assembled quickly. Our Navy is| more extensive because our shores, our | great commerce and our distant posses- | sions must be protected, and it takes | { years to build a warship.” “No Sure Way to Prevent War.” Declaring “No sure found to prevent wa says that “opinions may differ as to| whether nations, with adequate military i forces, are more likely to enjoy peace than those which neglect their -defenses. In the last analysis, this is a question of dealing with human nature. Every one knows that if there were no police our cities would be ransacked within 24 | | | i ‘ ! | ! | | pal airport March 17 with a loss of 14 | | lives.

By the Associated Press. | NEW YORK, March 28—Gen. John | F. O'Ryan, president of Colonial Air- ways, Inc, last night issued a state- ment. in which he said that the reputa- tion and experience of Lou Foote as a pilot were above question. Foote piloted | the tri-motored Ford airplane which crashed near the Newark, N. J., munici | | | | | | | Gen. O'Ryan’s statement was prompt- ed by the report of Lieut. Richard Ald- worth, trafic manager of the Newark airport, who said that failure of an en- gine, improper piloting and insufficient | knowledge of the area on the part of | the pilot apparently were contributing causes of the accident. | “While I do not wish to make a final | statement on this report until I have | had an opportunity to study it care- fully and confer with our officials,” Gen. O'Ryan sald, “it has been definitely | established that the reputation and ex- perience of Foote as a pilot were above | question. As to any error of judgment on his part, I can say that it is almost always Impossible for one not a partici- pant in an accident of this kind justi- flably to question the technical discre- tion of the man called upon to act.” ‘The general’s statement said that the | ells, one at each end.

It seems to me that it is almost a moral certainty that we should find some excuse for taking that action. But when we know that other countries have a considerable ability to defend themselves, it is hu- man nature for us to regard them with a more wholesome respect and be more careful about violating their rights. If we reverse this picture we can like- wise conclude that if others know we are prepared to defend ourselves they will be less likely to commit offenses against us. Army and Navy Do Twofold Duty. “While I have discussed national de- fense very largely as a method of pre- venting war, it has anéthe raspect which | is likewise of extreme importance, Per- | haps peace is an ideal that can come only to future generations. which are | § | more perfect than our own. M¢antime | we should take every precaution to pre- | | vent war, of which adequate defense | 4 | is one. But we should also take every precaution to protect ourselves to the | fullest possible extent from its ravages, | if it does come.
