VISCOUNT ASTOR. : Viscount Astor of England, who has been much in the public eye for vari- ous reasons never attracted more at- tention to himself than.when he re- nounced his American citizenship to become a subject of Great Britain. Pos- sessed of a great amount of inherited wealth his chief business in life was the handling of it. He saw a chance to get into poli- tics and he succeeded for a time hav-] = been a member of both branches of the New York state legislature where he served inconspicuously but failed of election when he attempted to o to congress. He was a college zraduate and a lawyer and was picked s the representative to Rome by President Arthur and there he found the work to his liking and time to in- dulge in his literary inclinations. Viscount Astor, however, was not a born politician. He was mot the kind of a man who could mix in with Tom, Di and Harry. He didn’t like the idea except when it was necessary around election time in order to curry favor. His ideas ran along different s. He was a member of the leisure class and he preferred to indulge his whnims in that direction. At the same time he chafed ‘under criticism as s well brought out during his politi- wreer. He didn’'t have to get out hustle and it bothered him be- and cause his holdings did mot bring him greater infiuecne. 1t was about that time that he be- eved that his desires in every way better suited across the w. tried it out and decided to citizenship anc by the ex- large sums he ananaged gain a title but :t how muz’: influence he though h. may have found what he sought his example has de an appeal to many others. be He 11d re re ent :ears to KEEP THEM ALL GUT. claimed by Anthony Caminetti, zenecal of immigrativa in ths there are 5000 undesirable 2 entering _this country every. onth through Mexico it is time to e attention to this as well as the 1 of restricting passports for the iod of another twelve months.

There are those who look upon state laws as nothing much to worry about, either believing that they will not be enforced or else that they are faulty. Such at least appears to be the case connection with the keepng of cer- tain commodities in cold storage in Ohio.

When you sell a person seeds that descend from a . mammoth or something I think you should print it on the package. You've got me into perfectly terrible trouble” “What has happened?” begged the bewildered clerk. ‘We like squaghes,” she told him, still reproachfully, “and when you try to buy squash in the winter either it is $1,000 a 'pound or the crop is a fail- ure, or somebody has just bought the last ome. So this yvear we planted squash in_our back yard. Mother said it would be so comfortable when we wanted squash just to go down into the basement and pluck one from the bin. We hadn't much space, but we thought maybe we could raise ten or twelve. “And we were so happy when all_the seeds came up. They seemed like such strong, Realthy seeds. And we were not mistakefl in our diagnosis. They de- voted twenty-four hours a day to their Job of growing amd pretty soon they had run all over our lettuce and radishes and parspips, so whenever we wanted any of them we had to go on an_exploring tour beneath the lux- uriant squash vine.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Self-Determination. Mr. Editor: The old saying, “One story is good until another story is told,” will aptly apply to an address recently given in your city. There is a great deal of misapprehension on the subject of self-determination. It has been repeated so frequently that the entente allies went to war in defense of it that many people believe it, but it is not true. The entente allies went to war to defend existing nations from German aggression, to uphold interna- tional law, and to avoid the disastrous consequences to themselves of the domination of the world by Germany. They did not go to war for the libera- tion of Poland, the Czecho-Slovaks, Jugo-Blavs or any other of the op- pressed peoples’ of Europe, though their liberation is one of the results of the war. Self-determination is a bol- shevist principle, proclaimed by Le- nine and Trotsky (o justify or cover their treasonmable transfer of _large parts of Russia to Germany. No na- tion admits the right of any part of it t0 secede and become independent. The great American Civil war was fousht because the northern states absolutely refused to recognize in the southern states any right of self-determination. Self-determination is a question of area. It is a right which the United States possesses because it is a nation. 1t is a right which Great Britain pos- sesses because Great Britain is a na- tion. Ireland, not being a nation, has no claim to it. If self-determination were conceded to Ireland, how could it be denied to Ulster? Ireland is a part of the United Kingdom and must continue to be governed in a with the wishes of the majority of the people. Ireland had a splendid oppor- tunity in the recent Irish convention to adopt President Wilson's principle, but failed to accept it. If there is to be a referendum in Ireland, why not in Ulster, or the six counties? Mr. Lioyd George in a recent speech “that the fact that Ireland is an island does not prove that it is a nation.” The two parts of Ireland. he said, differ in race, religion, temperament and out- look—in everything that constitutes the fundamental essentials of a nation. Until these two parts asree, or until the nationalists accept home rule for their own part of the country a settle- ment, he declared, is impossible. If the nationalists, he said, who _desire self-government will accept it for themselves, they can have it, but they cannot force it upon Ulster. As Kip- ling would say, “But that's another story.” # JAMES E. RINGLAND. Norwich Town, Oct. 20, 1919. IN THE DAY’S NEWS Dakar. “Dakar, which is seldom heard about, promises_to be a focal point in the expected rivalry of _European countries with the United States for trade with South America—a possibil- ity that everyome is hearing a great deal about just now.” says a bulletin from the National Geographic Society. The sudden interest in Dakar, the bulletin states, arises from dispatches teiling of proposed Paris to Brazil and Madrid to Brazil rail and water routes, and also of a contemplaied trans-Atlantic aeroplane flight from Dakar tq Ternambuco, Brazil. “A glance at the map will show why Dakar holds a strategic position for South American cpmmunication,” says the bulletin. “The distance from Da- kar, on the tip of Cape Verde, to Per- nambuco ,the eastdrnmost city of the South American continent, is but 1,715 miles as compared iwith 3,053 miles from New York to iLverpooi. “Already Dakar is a pert of prime importance for vessels which ply be- tween Buropean ports and either South America or southern Africa.

Because many Anaceurate reports of large sales of American Red Cross merchandise have appeared in the’past few weeks, Red Cross headquarters in Paris has issued a statement explain- ing that the only materials which have been sold are certain perishables, ser-nd-hand equipment, surplus stocks a1'W articles which can no longer be used for direct relief work, either in France or in Eastern Buro ¢ The total sales of surplus and sec- ond-hand material by the American Red Cross in Europe will aggregate not more than 30.060.000 francs, savs hinterland, for it is the seat of admin- istration for all the French pesses- sions in West Africa. which include, beside Senegal, of which Dakar is the chief city, French Guinea .the Ivory comst, Dahomey, French.

The West African tribes, such as the Ber- ber. the Serer. the Fulah. and the Mandingo, all of ich are represented !in Senegal, are among the most ad- vanced of the African natives. “The Berbers, for example, history, dating back to times, which mystifies ethnologi | They are believed, by some experts. to have been at one time the masters of the Mediterranean. Today many of them, were they attired as we are, might pass for Americans. Their skin is light, ahd some of them are blondes. “Many times have the Berbers been captured, driven out of their home- steads, and, like the Jews, have be- come strangers in new lands, but they always maintained their racial iden- tity, their physical characteristics, and a persistent love for freedom. Their women, like those of ancient Sparta and modern Russia, have fought by their husbands’ sides, and their moral- ity may be judged from the fact that the death penalty is administered for adultery. They havé what amounts to universal male suffrage, through an assembly of all males and the equiva- lent of universal mflitary training, since each boy is equipped, when six- teen, with arms which he must be ready to use until he is sixty. “A novice can_tell a lizht skinned Berber from a_Wolof, ‘Dlack of the blacks.'

The American Red Cross is now con- ducting operations in seventeen European countries. The relief ma- terinl distributed in France, mainly in the devastated districts since the arm- istice ,is valued at over francs, while in the same period dth- er European countries have received more than 200.000,000 francs’ worth of similar supplies, including net only medical and surgical matertals, but al- =0 _clothing, food, barracks; ete.
