One wonders how the war lords maintain their reputations. Any western na- | tion, which God forbid should ever oceur under similar circumstances— —would be chronicling a string of | “battles” with heavy casualiti and in the press counts. But does a Chinese ever actually fight? One gets the that most of the fight- ing in China consists of one general computing the total of the other fel- low’s resources | the 1 suns to the each side ac- army impression and the one having quantity of man-powe: and quarters — naturally decides to re- | treat. | A1l of which is one way of ducting war.

His ultimatum to the Hankow Reds, demanding that Michael Borodin, Moscow's repre- sentative, must be ousted, and the Chinese leaders in Hankow must choose between himself or Feng, has not been acted upon readily; but give them time.

Factsand Fancies By Robert Quillen A husband 18 like an egg. It you keep him in hot water he'll become hard-boiled. There's no cure for a chronic worrier. Tel him that worry will {kill him and he'll immediately start | worrying about that. ete., is in Pekin but is not sitting as comfortable as might be expected. A half moon of opposing National- ists worry him, and if the Japanese don’t aid him the future is dark. Chang Tso-lin’s “government” Pekin would not amount to half a tael without Japanese support. The Japs, however, are wily this time— or, as usual—and it Chang Tso-lin is riding a losing mare they are not going to hack him so'very much. In other words, if it becomes evident that Chiang Kai-shek and his Nan- king - Canton-Southern — Kuomin— in tang combination is a sure winner. the Japs are not going to risk future trade losses by irritating this eam roller. The Japs want to be in good with the fellow who lands on top. Chiang and Feng are bank- | ing on “the principles of Sun Yat Sen,” the Chinese George Washing- ton, and Chang has no such prin- ciples to rely upon. Chang in real- ity is an ex-bandit. If the atmos- phere too hot around Pekin he will flee—the custom of war lords in China; and the Japs becomes may encourage him. There is Brigadier Smedley Darl- ington Butler, the man who failed to dry up Philadelphia. He is Tientsin, Shanghai, and environs, bossing U. S. marines destined to: prevent any more outrages against, foreigners, such as injured the fair) names of Nanking and Hankow. He is primed for trouble, as usual; but neither Chiang, Chang, Feng or any of the other galaxy of il marshals are anxious to do battle with uniformed foreigners. That would mean bloodshed, which hus no place in this picture, at celest TAFT'S SELF-CRITICISM Mellowing age must bring with it candid self-appraisal, else how oth- erwise can one account for the as- tonishing of Supremc Court Justice Taft that he was nev- er fitted to be president. Granted that he is temperament- | ally more fitted to be a chicf justics than a president; does that mean that he was not fitted to be presi- dent? What qualities has President Coolidge that Mr. Taft lacked? Mr. Coolidge by many is regard- | cd as an ideal president; whether | he is or isn't is beside the point. Mr. Coolidge is heing boomed for a third term, and largely by the same interests which boomed Mr. Taft for re-election, And had there been no in the Republican party in 1512 the likelthood is that Mr. Taft would have been re-clected, regard- lcss of how he was personally fitted to be president. i Mr. Tatt was assertion not he- cause he lacked certain qualities. He was defeated largely because Mr. certain qual- defeated it If Mr. Taft believe too easy-going to be president, what can be said of Mr. Harding, who by na- was a semewhat similar man. Had Mr. Hording lived the prob- abilities are, regardless of his Taft- he was like qualities. that he would have been elected to a second term. The highly bruited presidential quaiities of Mr. Coolidge, in that would not have heen heard of. event, Chance has much in common with presidential possibilities, It is no doubt true that Mr. Taft posses: ses exceptional qualifications for the chief justiceship. But the people who elected him president in 1908 regarded him as possessing all the » qualities, and the party which nominted him thought of him as highly as the same party is sup- posed to regard Mr. Coolidg: ifications for a third term. requ qual- 'PANNING THE GUARDS Sing Sing guards are not wonders of quick decisions.

Traprock 1 see where the whales very prop- crly saluted Col. Lindbergh when he cruised homeward.

I saw a huge bull- whale coming along side! I thought for sure he would bump me into Kingdom Come but no . . . he sim- ply nuzzled gently against the side of the umbrella and pushed me slowly but surely shoreward until the point of my old boat grated in the sand. Then, with a farewell salute of spouting foam, the gallant crcature steamed off into the deep. The reason? There can be only one. The ribs of my ancient um- brella were made of whalebone! In thus tenderly nursing me to land, the whale was simply paying a tribute of infinite respect to the hones of his ancestors! | star THURSDAY, JULY 7, 1927.
