OS ndhenteLs cme ta Sanity or Annihilation! There'll Be No War With Britain; Forget It and Eat Your Dinner HE TELEGRAPH EDITOR of The Star read a United, Press dispatch from London yesterday, just after it) had been ticked off by the wire, and turned to the manag- | ing editor and the city editor. “An important British official tells news correspond- ents that the United States and Greai Britain are tread- ing the path which leads to war,” said the telegraph editor. He seemed to think his remark would cause a sensa-| tion, It did not. et The managing editor looked somewhat bored. The city | editor appeared only politely interested and then resumed | his work, And that is the way, so we believe, that the public! should receive alarming reports of such nature, coming | either from London or any city in America. HE UNITED STATES AND GREAT BRITAIN Si OT GOING TO FIGHT A WAR! ; uch problems as the allied debt, the world oil situation | and the subnormal status of foreign exchange are matters | for diplomats and business men to arrange peaceably and satisfactorily for all concerned. Certainly they are not serious enough to cause the de-| struction of English-speaking people—and that is what a) war between the United States and Great Britain would mean. Problems of any sort are not solved by recourse to an- ARE | \nihilation—and that is what a war between the United |States and Great Britain would mean. It would mean not only the annihilation of English- speaking people but also of modern civilization. It would mean severing the cord of civilized restraint | and the start of a vast and uncontrollable sweep forward of THE HORDES OF COLOR over the face of the earth, nated and the world dominated by gibbering and strange | savages. THIS IS THE CHOICE ‘OF THE WHITES TODAY: AND AMICABLE RELATIONS AMONG THE NATIONS OF THE WORLD, OR THE END OF ALL. The people, God bless them, are not insane. ** © HE PEOPLE are weary, tho. They are weary of war and the talk of it and the) They are weary of strife and hatreds and bickerings. They are weary of fuzzle-witted statesmen, who con- tinue to think in terms of greed and of armed conflict to gain undesirable ends. It would behoove these statesmen to come off the pedes- tal and take a look atwit them. The people do not wish another war. There will be no war between the United States and Great Britain. Forget it, and eat your dinner. Restricting Juries DISTRICT JUDGE in Atlantic City, N. J., has issued instructions to the bailiff that women juries shall contain: busy wives of workingmen, “No mothers of children, “No admixture of men, ‘o immature women who giggle, rouge and powder, but do not think.” Excellent! Especially the last. But— Logically carried out, such a rule would disrupt the jury stem. Why pick on women? How many men accepted for jury service show any visible signs of thinking? Would it not be wise also to refuse jury service to men who: Take chances on bootleg whisky, Wear lavender or yellow spats, Allow barbers to scent their hair, Believe “‘woman’s place is in the home,” Spend whole evenings in jazz cabarets, Think the country is “going to the dogs,” Are affected by oratory rather than facts, Weep when a hired lawyer is working up his case, Serve on juries out of a bawdy curiosity, Concentrate on ankles rather than on evidence, Are susceptible to the charms of pretty murderesses. Are—?—but fill out the list. It is exceedingly long. Want to Be Fopular? VERYBODY wants to be popular. There are a few who appear to scorn popularity, but the vast majority of jus covet it as the one thing to be desired. | Yet, as a matter of fact, there are comparatively few |popular people in the world. Why? There is one royal road to popularity which is plain and yet which few seem to find. It is a path of personal, vital interest in folk themselves; a willingness to listen to their tales of woe or of joy; to weep when they weep, to laugh when they laugh, and do it with a heartiness that can only come h entire self-forgetfulness. | This is just where the rub comes. ‘The chap who says jumping 5,000 | in a parachute is getting too for him might find a little ex nt running Scattle’s street car Bate.
