Thus ends & conference which its tackling of intricate international | armament problems accepted three -fitths of a loaf as better than none, | and furthermore induced the entire five nations to sign the pact affecting for the most part only three of the | five nations involved. As applying to Britain, Japan and the Unitad States, the efficacy of this pact can scarcely be doubted. It is when one contemplates its dove- tailing with the possible actions of France and Italy that a modicum of doubt arises. Should Francé, in order | 1o maintain its fleets against those of Ttaly and in conformity with its idea of “security,” build more ships | than England cares to sce sprouting across {he Channel and in the Mediterranean, the effect will be to increase the total of England and then the United States and Japan. In theory thjs possibility perhaps looks more important than it will be- | come in practice. Everyone knows fully that both France and Italy ar not financially able to upsct the bal- ance of the powers with large and exhensive naval fleets; yet, should they incline to do so, it would not ‘be the first time in history when _folly goverped the policies of na- tions. Considering the difficulties faced the conference from the be- ginning ta its finish, the three-power treaty unquestionably was an achievement that may well be point- ‘ed to with a fecling that the cause of international understanding among the most powerful nations _has been accelerated. ceremony, in that The conference, opening on Janu- ary 21 umid an aroma of ilealism and an avalanche of hope, soon took a turn that indicated difficulties| -ahead.

The demand for more tonnage by France, the wish by Great Britain to abolish the battleships, and the willingness of the United States and Britain to abolish submarines, open- ed up a line of discussion that prov- | ed an illuminating reminder that na- | &ons were still somewhat selfish in | their attitudes, and that there was no complete trust toward one au- other in spite of the Kellogg pact, | the Locarno pact and the League of Nations. France's insistence that th--i submarine was necessary for its se- | urity, and Ttaly’s spirited remind- | crs that she too believed heartily in efficacy of submarines as weapons for “‘poor nations,” speedily left no doubt that submarines wouid | remain on the seas. Ultimately the agreement was to regulate how they | are to be used if occasion demands | it! This, at least, sort. To the end there was an astonish- ing total of bickering and disagree- ment. But both Premier MacDonald who had called the conference, and President Hoover could not afford affronts to their prestige that would is progress of a | the conference into a virtual three- | power pact, but with the five nations signing it, was considerable of a compromise when compared with the original intentions.

Thers will be other conferences in other years. Perhaps, after all, in interna- tional everyone in all' the relations. it is scarcely pos- sible for humanity to move forward too swiftly. There may come a time when excessive nationalism will give | way to an application of the golden | rulé among nations as between indi- | viduals; but that time is not yet.

The de sire of the recent administration was to push all projects in order to pro- vide work for M, i the unemployed. jor Paonessa was told that even the job cost more than it would cost otherwise, the city would have to expend the ditference or more than the difference in the support of families needing poor relicf, On this basis the work proceeded. It has cost $10,000 more than had been | estimated. The reason given for the increased cost is that a “scction of quicksand well as rocks had things would have caused extra ex- which to | pense no matter at what season of the year the work were done. On the whole, the storm drainage system constructed is a distinct ad- tag NE there old Willow Brook ars has been trouble with and it anything. this trouble should now ce will be other drainage prob- lems f the city in due course. They will be made first manifest at the avy spring rain.

PUTTING ON THE SHOWS The most successful type of ehter- | tainment, it would appear, are those | which are sponsored by church and | social organizations. They do not go to large expense, in the first place, and usually they can interest a good- ly proportion of people identificd with their own circles as well as in- teresting a fairly large slice of the | public, depending upon how good the entertainment happens to be. There is the report, for instance, of the profit from the social and entertainment held by St. Joseph’s | parish in Tabs hall cvent showed a profit of $1,100, It i§ on record that organizations in the past sponsored high brow | artistic entertainments and did not sce anything remotely resembling that sum in profits. And there is the minstrel show be- ing put on by the Tabs this week. It has come to our ken that a’large | block of tickets were sold in ad- vance, and the place threatens to be crowded when the show goes on. Under such conditions %here is bound to be a profit. The Methodists are putting on a show ‘soon, and who ever heard of them doing such a thing without en- joying the fruits of their | deavor? The entertainments in the | Lutheran churches, which occur at almost regular intervals, usually make the same showing. Yet there are other types of enter- | tainments, the artistic, those entail- ing the employment of high-priced smxem. which have harder sledding. en- { | deficit as.the result. There is,an answer to all this and perhaps some of us can supply it if we cared to go into details.

While spring activity in most sections ma- terialized somewhat later than usual, business is brisk at present and it is now predicted that sales for the first hdit of the year will compare fa- vorably with the corresponding pe- riod of last year. Indications of a general better- ment in basic conditions and in the key industries have lent a more op- timistic toneo trade prospects for the immediate future. Increased activity in building operations has given some impetus to the demand for builders’ hardware and related construction supplies. Prices are mostly steady and un- changed. The few revisions which have been made recently were large- ly of inconsequential character. Quo- tations, however, on many lines are lower at this time than during the corresponding period of last year. This fact should be considered in sales volume comparisons. No major price changes appear likely in the near future. The credit situation has begun to reflect the general improvement in condition in the better status of col- lections.!
