DARNALL, Former Editor of The Key. West Citizen Times do change. Just 25 years ago Mrs. Patrick Campbell, the famous English actress, was ordered to desist from smoking in the tea room of the Hotel Plaza in New York, And girls were put on the brazen list if they lifted a skirt above the shoe-tops while crossing a muddy strect. Bandits in many sections have picked _on n_coiiples parked on roadsides as easy ‘prey. But one guessed wrong when he tried to hold up a pair in St. Louis. The “couple” turtied out to be two policemen, one in female attire, who had placed them- selves in a locality where numerous rob- beries had occurred—and they got’ their man, » An odd note of thanks was issued by the Russian dictator, Joseph Stalin, whose wife died recently after a short and mys- terious illness. It said: “I am earnestly grateful to all who have expressed their condolence in connection with the death of my dear friend and comrade, Nadeja Ser- geivna Allilieuva-Stalina. _ eta oui sti ~ George M. Cohan, the noted comedian, Blaywright and song composer, doesn’t think much of the contemporary talking ' pictare dialogue being ground out in Holly- wood. He recently said: “If my little boy wrote stuff like that I wouldn't speak -to him again.” And the movie writers may retort that some of George's stuff is not so hot. One of the few replicas of the seal of the Confederate states-of America. is in Possession of W. L. McCarty of McAllen; Tex. It is of bronze, about six inches in diameter, and has in its center the figure of George Washington on horseback, sur- “routided by a wreath’ Yepreseiiting southern farm products. The original great Con- federate seal disappeared: when the capitol at Richmond was evacuated on April 2, 1865, and has never been found. A few years ago it was discovered that malaria fever induced by the duetion of germs into the system had a beneficial effect in certain mental diseases, Now the same éffect is obtained by use of ig exclusively enti‘led to suse | intro- WHY CAN’T THEY PAY? It is just a bit difficult for the ordinary man—who isn’t an ~?onomist, psy- : chologist, or diplomat, or fool—to under- | stand the logic of all this poor-mouth our or | oversea debtors are putting up over _war "* | debts. fe Here are some figures, vouched for by indisputable authorities, which even aa | economist ought to be able to undcrstand : Great Britain says she can’t pay the United States 159 million a year on her debt, yet she can spend 461 million a year for military purposes in time of peace. | France’s case is far more ridiculous. She says she can’t pay us 50 million, yet | she is spending 541 million on her military establishment—more than 10 times , a& much for arms as it would take to pay her debt to us. Then there is Italy, which was given an absurdly easy debt settlement spending 331 million for arms but unable to pay us less than 15 millions. Poland and Belgium show a similar situation. The United States has already given these nations very lenient terms and low interest rates in connection with their war dcbts, with 60 years in which to pay. We have even intimated that we might further reduce these debts if these nations would make an honest effort to reduce their armaments. This they are too stubborn to do, Combined European debtor nations are due to pay the United States about 147 million a year.. Combined they are spend- ing 2,250 million a year for war prepara- tions. Why can’t they cut their military expenditures one-ninth and thereby save enough to pay these honest debts? dosti PROPOSALS As the arms conference is. resumed. at Geneva, Great Britain makes two notable proposals. One is to reduce war fleets ‘of air- ; planes below her own pr sent léevel—which is lower than that of any other major power—with a view to the ultimate aboli- tion of aircraft as weapons of war. . Thus there would be no more air bombardment. This is a natural policy for Britain, just as it was natural for her some firs » 20 to propose abolition of the submarine, be~ cause with either used by the enemy, she loses her old insular immunity from at- tack. But what she proposes would be de- sirable for all the powers if they accepted it freely and lived up to it. The second British suggestion is that all nations shall refrain from the use of force against other nations. This looks like applying the Gandhi principle to the whole world. I€ looks rather utopian in the present stage of human progress. It may be meant to fit in with the recent French suggestion of an international army, which alone, as a police body, would be entitled to apply force. Before we reach that stage, we shall doubtless have a period of economic co- éreion to restrain nations from aggression. Many. Americans look forward on that. We may not get far, all at once, with such ideas. But would not the mere sug- gestion of them before the World War have made the world rub its eyes? THE STOCK MARKET For all cautious speculators, thé stock market “Keep off the Grass” signs are still up. The market is not one at this time for profits for any but the profes- sionals. They are still eating one another, but the public is not taking chances. The big banking interests are sup- porting the bond market and it is holding steady. After the holidays, and perhaps a little while after the poor reports of busi- ness for 1932 have been made and digested by the public, the financial interests will come into the market with their funds and a bull movement may be expected. It is difficult to guess just when this bull movement will start, but as it is aay to be progressive and constant, in its up- ward trend, there can be so harm in the potential investor or speculator waiting until it develops. A bit of good advice is to avoid the stecsevccccccce ACROSS 1, Walk wearily & Shoe larchet 8. To ve: Latin 12° ¢ sistant 33. 15. Pertaiping to regions near ea’ 17.
