There Is, however, a limit at which forbearance ceases to be a virtue. :o: Yes, a dollar goes farther now, but you likewise have to go farther to get a dollar. :o: The reason people are patient with statesmen is because they don't know what to dq, either. :o: We often wonder whom the in come tax experts get to fill out their income tax returns for them. :o: A celebrity is a person who can get by with the kind of work that wouldn't make anybody a celebrity. :o: If all the diagnosticians were right this country would have perished of a complication of ailments long ago. :o: The ambitious person must rise early, and sit up late, and pursue his design with a constant, inde fatigable attendance. :o: The good old days were those when a young man found out if his girl friend could make good biscuits before he asked her to marry him. :o: There is generally some way of cashing in on publicity. So that St. Paul woman who was rowing to New Orleans may finally be able to mop up. :o: Another veteran of the noble 600 who fought in the light brigade has passed. away, bringing the total of survivors down to an estimated rem nant of 1,732. :o: There are no backwoods districts any more, and before another year, you'll be bearing that the hill folks have wrapped their children in cello phane for the winter. :o: "Powers Step Into Manchurian Muddle," says the news. To such an extent, do you suppose, that the Japanese will be filing petitions to oust the power trust? :o: A 91-year-old woman in Illinois keeps from growing old, she says, by splitting wood. And her husband, we hope, is also enjoying good health; if he isn't, he ought to be. :o: Finland voted antl-Volstead and New Hampshire elected a wet Dem ocrat to office. This seems to be the year for the ice-bound peoples of the far North to register unrest. -:o:- ' This looks like another year when the interests of the major political parties are so closely knitted that they can carry on their campaign arguments almost without the aid of interpreters. :o: John Masefield says poetry is the wine of the universe. Thus we have; heavy, dark wine of the universe; and then we have light wine, but most of the time, Just 1 per cent beer and ginger ale. :o: If things keep on at their present speed, we probably can have a joint celebration of the settlements of the Manchurian problem, the war debt problem and the prohibition prob lem in February. 1999. :o: Several of the baseball clubs in the big leagues have released a number of their last year's players, and we suppose other steps to strengthen the line-up will be taken from time to time as the season approaches. :o: A Japanese girl recently won a gold medal for being the best domes tic servant in Japan. She works sev en t?en hours a day and is paid $40 a year. "Perfect servants" are very scarce. We suppose that's w-hy they come so high. :o: A widow gave a glad sigh as the bells of Leap Year rang In last week and announced, "May this year make it possible for me to have someone to build fires and still not have to live in the poorhouse or peniten tiary," then her daughter, a college girl said, "Well, mother. I don't be lieve there Is anything left for you but hell." -:o:- Hoarded money will not help business conditions to improve. It's the money in circulation that counts! Read the Journal ads and take advantage of the many bar gains Plattsmouth business men will offer you the coming year. UNDERSTANDING JAPAN The Japanese are a sensitive peo ple. They resented the interference by the ccuncil of the League of Na tions in the Manchurian question. As one liberal Tokio newspaper said: "If the members of the council had faith in us, they would not have thought of asking us to refrain from any action which might lead to fight ing and bloodshed." In view of the Japanese reaction to the League, there was no reason to suppose they would be less resent ful of American invocation of the Nine-Power treaty and the Kellogg pact. No doubt they sincerely be lieve that the rest of the world has mistaken their motives. Have they not time and again declared that Japan has no territorial ambitions in Manchuria? It has sent troops there, according to the Japanese, merely to protect its citizens and their property. Yet the same newspaper that has deplored the council's lack of con- fidence in Japanese intentions quotes with approval the "many sen sible things" which a former German ambassador in Tokio has to say about Manchuria. Here is one of them: "Dr. Self (the former German ambas sador) says that Manchuria is indis pensable to the national life of Ja pan, and that any attempt to check Japan in Manchuria would be de plored by friends of world peace .and co-cperation. Another prominent Tckio newspaper states the Japanese case in these frank words: Manchuria and Mongolia are both for her national defense and for her economic purposes. More plainly speaking, they are the first line of defense for Ja pan's existence, and there would be no guarantee either for the safety of this country or the peace of the far East if they were left with China. . . . Pure ly as a matter of self-defense. Japan simply cannot let Mon golia and Manchuria alone. In the light of such statements. as well as the general Japanese pol icy of declining to use the method of peaceful settlement through inter- national action, the outside world may be forgiven perhaps for mis- understanding the situation in Man- churia. If me United States cannot per- suade Japan to make its attitude con- ff.rm to the treaties it has signed, at least his country can help mobilize world opinion on the subject, and it can crcrhasize its si ecini interest in the protection of American Interests in Manchuria. -:o:- FARM OUTLOOK BETTER The year just ended was a dark cne for American farmers. Their in come in dollars was 26 per cent be low that for 1930, or 42 per cent un der that for 1923. These figures are deceptive, of course, for dollars are worth more. But prices of nearly all farm products were low, that of wheat being lower than at any time since the middle ages. And an Oc- tober rally in prices was not as per- manent as hoped. The outlook for the coming year, however, is much more encouraging. I In wheat, which is to some degree a bellwether for most other farm prices there is a large carryover; but ir.u?h of this is of unmerchantable lew I grade. This carryover is being ro- duced by increased feeding to live stock, and the next crop will be cur- tailed by acreage cuts in nearly all months might be required for a new the big producing countries.

The women of every country concerned are asking pointed questions of their various govern ments in regard to their claims to direct representation at that confer ence. In Geneva, during the first week I of September, eleven of the great in ternational organization of women joined in a single disarmament com mittee for the purpose of centraliz ing the work already begun by in dividual organizations and of facil itating co-operation generally. These organizations were repre sentative of women of the learned professions, business women, co-oper ative women, women engaged in so cial work and in work for temper- jance .besides that vast body of wom en who go to make up the peace so cieties which have sprung up in nearly every part of the world. They pledged themselves to assist "by every means in their power in organ izing the vast and growing public opinion in favor of the conference and the realization cf the world wide cry for disarmament and secur ity." They pledged themselves, however. to do more than organize public opinion. Among themselves, they ar ranged to make personal appeal to every government concerned in the conference for the inclusion in its delegation of at least one woman "rep resentative, or, in the event that in certain countries no women be found capable of carrying the weight re- auired of a full delegate, to ask that at ,eagt one woman shou,d nclud. ed among that country's technical ad visers. During the months that have pass ed, women have bestirred themselves to direct world affairs into paths of greater good will and clearer under standing. In the Far East, the wom en of bcth China and Japan have joined in the dispatch of telegrams to other women grouped in Geneva, affirming their desire to end hostil- ities in Manchuria. The women or Asia have met first at Damascus and then at Lahore to discuss world peace and the things which pertain to peace. The women of the Balkan coun tries have looked across their war like frontiers and joined hands easily where men have found it hard to do so. Tne women - oi America nave toured from the east coast to the west, gathering upon their disarma ment declaration the signatures of all those who desire world concord The women of more than forty other countries have collected similar sig- natures running into millions Governments of the world will do wH to heed these signs of the times. Excessive armaments and the eco nomic slump both have their roots in the same mistaken cause lack of confidence. The nations must disarm themselves of their suspicions as well as of their military and economic weapons. The organized women of the world are in no doubt about these things It is to be hoped, therefore, that when the choice of delegates comes to be made governments will put fuestiens of sex aside, and be guided rather by considerations of suitabil ity and fitness. :o: ANOTHER CHANCE AT THE LAME DUCKS It is both an obsolete and unrep resentative system that allows mem- bers of congress to retain their seats and to engage in legislation for a year or more after they may have been defeated at the polls, and at the same time to hold out of office and away from congress those who have been elected to represent the people. This arrangement, which includes the short or "lame duck" session of congress, belongs with the conditions of nearly a century and a half ago, when the Constitu- tion was adopted, when weeks or (ton. In the short session there may be scores of house members and 10 month before the session opens. They no longer, in any real sense, represent their districts and states. making all sessions of congress be- early in January and placing the inauguration date of the President in the same month, instead of in March, as at present. This is both a sensible and . just arrangement. against which not a single reasonable objection can be urged. The house repeatedly has refused to concur the resolution, wltnout offering any ground for its opposition. What will it do now with the senate resolu- ion? :o: Journal Want-Ads gat raaultal THE STATESMANSHIP OF LAC0R Tne statement oi secretary ot La bor William N. Doak calling atten- tion to the relatively few labor dis putes in the United States in 19311 compared with the usual prevalence during times or. ousiness recession is worthy of emphasis. Mr. Doak did! not supply any figures, but they will soon be forthcoming in the Monthly Labor Review. It requires no figures, however, to agree with a conclusion which has so obviously been borne out in common experience. One year-end review issued in Wall Street goes so far as to say that "the outstanding fact of 1931 was the statesmanship of American labor." There is a good deal of warrant fori the statement. Never before In the industrial history of the United States has such a rapid wage defla - ...... tion been carried tnrougn in one year. Factory pay rolls have been cut by no less than 27 per cent, though, of course, the figure reflects a good deal of unemployment and short time, as well as wage cutting. While it is true that an offsetting factor to this wage cutting has been the fall in commodity prices, 14 per cent on the average, the whole of the droD has not been felt in the budgets of the American wage earner, the cost of living having declined only 9 per cent. Contrasted with the 27 per cent fall in pay rolls, this has not yielded much comfort to American labor, but the unions in general have remained level headed, and no recur- rence of such industrial conflicts as were part of the American scene be - fore the war have been seen. Clearly, Secretary Doak is entitled to claim great credit for his depart- ment in helping to maintain indus trial peace during this period of vio lent readjustment. But he would not deny the greater contribution made by the mutual consideration between labor union officials and company executives. United States Steel cut its divi- dends before it touched wages. Beth - lehem has Just adopted a whole town in order to prevent the social degen - eration which usually follows whole - sale discharges. Railroads and the unions are talking over wage prob- lems in an atmosphere of give-and- take which is markedly at variance with old practices. In such circum- stances it is no wonder that Indus - trial disputes in terms of index num- bers, using 1916 as 100, fell fromlsolve as we celebrate this birthday 117 in 1917 to 17 in 1930. It is to be hoped that management and labor will remain on the alert tolto teach as though the whole texture preserve this fine record, each under- standing the other's problems, and both determined to do their share in helping the government perform that financial renovation which is the pre requisite to the return of better times. :o: FRANCE FEARS ONLY WAR Thrift, plain, old-fashioned thrift the admonition, "Put money in thy purse" always has been and still is a high moral law of French- life. A self-contained agricultural coun try, with a rich, Jealously closed market in its colonies, France is not dependent upon foreign trade. She is closer than America or Germany or England, or even Japan and Italy, to the simpler mode of life where a family, by diversified farming, sim ple needs and deft skill, can sustain itself in happiness indifferent to events beyond the seas, or even be yond the township line. The Frenchman has clung to the peaceful trough modest security of a life without luxuries, beneath the shade of his own vine and fig tree. If the present economic blizzard rages unchecked, it will not mean the somersault of capitalism into communism, as some suggest, but rather the return of the world to the French outlook, to simpler, self- contained, economic family units. France alone is not overwhelmed by our highly complex machines, fran- tic foreign trade and ballyhoo sales vMTa cro n1a I vaa&ca. The western world, excepting L France, is economically wltnout in- sulation; overproduction in one land leaps like lightning to otner nations. France alone can seem Indifferent. oue preiers, 10 oe sure, a prosperous i i i ..u I wu,.u, iu wuom sue ner iu- r uries and her styles; but she is not an n-aeii iu me marrow uy an aurupi decline in foreign trade as are the machine-ruled industrial countries. And so long as the French spend a little less than they gather in, so long as they thriftily keep population down by birth control, a world de- pression will see them growing rich- er and Increasingly indifferent to the specter of an international trade de bacle. All that France fears Is something which will upset the simple security of her self-contained life a war.

The light of great ideals has been the saving force through all the cen I tunes richer In vitality than any race, more abiding than empires, more enduring than monuments of stone. Ideals are practical. Like the I beacons that guide men through the I seas and the air, they are most need- Jed in times of storm and difficulty. i Some nineteen hundred years ago Jesus Christ gave to mankind the i greatest body of idealism the world has known. With none of the trap- pings of classroom, curriculum, grades or degrees; in an age crush- fed with ignorance, superstition, bru- I tality, and corruption by the mere l force of living and teaching Christ i . . (started a new epoch; an epoch so (significant that the calendar dates from his birth, so powerful that it has changed the whole course of hu- man events, so beneficent that untold millions of men have been lifted higher in the scale of life I It is not plain that what the world (needs just now is a new devotion to great ideals? In statecraft, in busi i ness. in industry, in law, in the church, in science, or in teaching can anything be more intensely fruitful and practical than a renewed faith in the higher and finer things? Hour after hour, day after day, we are all facing situations where there is I choice bet wen the higher and the lower. It takes but a little common sense and a will to choose- the high- ler path to change the whole course of a life, a school, a nation, or an age A little more faith, a little more idealism and the confusion of today ! may give way to the fairest dawn the world has ever seen Teachers inspired by the living example of the Great Teacher are I prepared to work and sacrifice as I never before. Thousands of them in America where banks are bursting with gold have taught for many, many months without pay proving in the hour, of need the sustaining 1 power of a great devotion. As we celebrate this Christmas, let us dedi- cate ourselves anew to those lofty ideals that are the fruit of untold centuries of aspiration and hope, of sacrifice and struggle, of heroism and 1 courage. In the faith that teaching is the surest way, let us highly re- fof the Great Teacher to teach bet- iter than we have ever taught before, of civilization rested upon our teach ling. That is the supreme need of this hour. The Journal of the National Education Association -:o:- THE HABIT OF JUDICIAL SETTLEMENT Tbe States of New Jersey and Delaware are now presenting their respective arguments to the United States Supreme Court's special mas ter over a boundary dispute in the Delaware Riber. The chief issue is: Who owns the valuable oyster beds on the Jersey side of the Delaware River and Bay? Delaware's title is based on a grant by King Charles I to the Duke of York in 1682, who in turn ceded this territory to William Pe-nn. New Jersey disputes the val idity of these grants. However interesting these points are. it Is far more interesting to note th method to which these two states have resorted to settle their boundary dispute. The controversy is quasi-interna tional and the Supreme Court sits as a quasi-international triDunai The court is called upon to iron out a dispute which cannot be dealt with by Congress or settled by the Legis lature of either State alone. The law which it applies to controversies be tween states is international law based on equity and fair dealing. The moral authority and prestige of the court in the sanction for the obed ience which its judgments command in disputes involving the states of the Union and arise3 from the fact ItYiot r?iirincr thA lnct pantiirv a Tin A ,f memberg have acauired the h b, . accordance with the Con stltution, of resorting to the Supreme Court for the settlement of Inter t t e disDUteg K,lMl .. fiAnap f- th ' Permanent Court of International Justlce at The Haeue. The aDDear . f tho nartlpa hpfnre it vnlnn- tary: the obedience to its decrees is without sanction. It has no sheriff to levy execution on the judgments which it renders. Yet its decisions are obeyed. The authoritv and Drestiere of the WorlH 0onrt will erow aa haa that of the UnUed stateg Supreme Court. There were times in American his tory when the United States' highest judicial tribunal was defied and when its prestige" was at a low ebb. It has through the years grown in effectiveness and power. In the same way", the growth and strength of the World Court depend upon the ' f re- quency with which the nations re sort to it for the settlement of inter national disputes. The United States will contribute to that development if the Senate gives its advice and consent to the World Court protocols now before it. Much of Old Paper Currency Being Horded $611,436,579 Reported as Outstand ing and Which Is Largely Hoarded by Owners. What has become of the $611,4 06, 579 of old-series currency the large sized bills which according to re cent Treasury reports is still out standing? A clue to the wherabouts of a large part of this money has been discov ered by the American Economists Committee for Women's Activities. A good deal cf it is very likely hoard ed in old stockings, behind mantle clocks and in safe deposit boxes, by housewives and otheis. Evidence of this hoarding has come to the committee since its recent an nouncement of the "It's Up To the Women" platform, urging America's 29.000,000 women, through thtir control of most household expendi tures, to take leadership in encourag ing business and employment. "Recent sales events sponsored by merchants of this city have brought into circulation quite a few of the eld style large size currency, indi cating that there is money in the country," the Chamber of Commerce of Keokuk, Iowa, informed the com mittee. Reports from other cities confirm ed this impression. "An interesting instance came to my attention recently," according to Elizabeth W. Wilson, economist, of Cambridge. Massachusetts. "In a moderate-sized New England city the merchants united in putting on a real bargain day. In that one day about 75,000 sales were made, aggre gating over three-quarters of a mil lion dollars. The most interesting point was that about twenty per cent of the purchases were made with the old large paper currency." The hoarded money, the Commit tee pointed out, will buy much more now than it would have at higher price levels a while ago. It will not buy as much when prices go up again. It is therefore wise to bring currency out of hiding. Eleven distinguished economists, from Yale, Princeton, Harvard. Northwestern, and other leading uni versities, make up the committee, with Dr. Warren M. Persons, con sulting economist, formerly of Har vard .as chairman. The seven-point platform of normal spending and saving with which they have appeal ed to women of the country was prompted by an editorial, "It's Up to the Women" in the Ladies' Home Journal. The platform has been approved by hundreds of community and na tional leaders in business, education and economics, including Secretary of the Interior Ray Lyman Wilbur, state governors, college presidents, and women leaders of the great worn en's club organizations of the coun try. Many of them are giving their active services to organize the eco nomic power of women against busi ness stagnation. HUNT FOR BOMB PARCELS Naples Ten mail clerks, handling everything with the .greatest care, searched thru 120 sacks of mail, but did not find three packages of bombs addressed to Premier Mussolini and the king. Th packages came in from the United States on the liner Excal ilur. Several -lundred mail sacks re named to be examined. Despite the danger of the fearch, not a clerk re fused when detailed to it. Accord ing to information from the United States, the package for the king weighed two pounds. The other packages were mailed Dec. 14 to 18 RAIL BOARD HEARS STOCK APPLICATIONS Lincoln, Jan. 11.
