Limit to Naval Armament. .
Little difficulty will be encountered in ac
cepting as well founded the report from Wash
ington that Great Britain is ready to join with
the United States in definitely limiting nava!
grmament. Reasons for this are many and
potent. A community of interest exists, which
Bnder ordinary considerations means that the
two navies will stand as one in the great task
pf preserving peace and order in the world.
Any ambitious power would be notified in ad
vance, almost, that naval supremacy would
entail armament equivalent to the combined
Strength of the United States and Great Britain,
B physical impossibility for any now existing,
fjuch assurance is the best possible guaranty.
Ambassador Harvey'a discussion of an al
liance between the two great English-speaking
nations has served to excuse another parade of
the League of Nations. Whatever form of un
derstanding comes out of .the Washington con
ference, and one will come, it is not probable
that it. will partake of any of the features of
the League ofsNations, save as any international
agreement for the benefit of all existing gov
ernments might so resemble' the Versailles pact,
fend only to. that extent. Policies and purposes
may be stated, composed and accepted, without
being written into hard and fast treaties or
compacts.' Alliances of the sort contemplated
by the expiring agreement between England and
Japan, for example, are repugnant to Ameri
cans. This, however, does not necessarily involve
the question of naval armament. , A practical
aspect of the proposal as it will be presented
to the conference involves the determination of
what force is required for purely defensive, pur
poses. Great Britain is willing that the United
States , navy should be brought- to a parity, with
the British, hitherto the most powerful in the.
world. On the completion of our present pro
gram the gun strength, of otir navy will slightly
exceed that of England. It is possible, then,,
that construction will not be immediately
slopped, but , future building will be less and
less of a burden. Japan has . given notice of
intention to carry out its present , plans for
building, which will leave it far short of the
separate strength of either of the two dominant
navies, Jet alone their combined power.
With the United States in the Philippines for
an indefinite time, an agreement with Japan as
to fortification of the islands is of prime im
portance. Unless the Japanese government is
seriously looking to hold control of the western
Pacific, defense of our island dependencies will
not require targe sums for land works. Con
sideration of these elements must necessarily
involve" specific understandings as to the general
policy to be pursued by all the countries, and
means" frank and full exchange of views as to
the national aspirations of each of the partici
pants. Japan's reluctance and England's will
ingness to enter the conference on Mr. Hard
ing's terms are thus made dear.
merely national mind is the unneighborly mind."
If neighbors pull against each other and cities
are torn by internal differences, what chance is
there of lasting agreement with the people of
other lands?
The building unit of a nation is the commun
ity, in spite of all state lines or other subdi
visions. Successful international arrangements
mutt rest on the same foundation. The prob
Jems of the city touch every resident more
closely than do any other governmental ques
tions. Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness,
while guaranteed by the nation, are community
obligations.
A governed world !s not possible without
governed communities. A neighborly world is
impossible without neighbors. If men ' and
women do not understand their obligations to
those who live In daily contact with them, then
they will not be capable of maintaining friendly
relations with strangers. Not enough attention
is paid to building up civic spirit Mr. Mackaye
is right there.
OJfer From the Soviet
Why Lenin Doos Not
Get Boon He Craves.
Putting a Kick in Water.
Take it. how you will this is the age of
water. That's true even in Germany, where
prohibition is unknown. South - Germany, the
news comes, is relying on water to pull it out
of economic and industrial drouth.
Waterways and water power are the means
by which this district hopes to save 3,000,000
tons of coal a year, produce 400,000 horsepower
from hydro-electric plants, and open a cheap
transportation route to the Balkans. Work on
the canalization of the Rhine, Main and Danube
rivers is to start next spring, with ten years of
work ahead before completion. '
If impoverished Germany can undertake such
an enterprise, surely the United States and
Canada can put through their own project, that
of the Lakes-to-Ocean waterway. If congress
will act promptly, it need not be 10 years be
fore this channel is opened. The saving, more
over, would be much larger than that of the
German canal. ' Four million horsepower and
the saving of, 49,000,000 tons of coal each year
would result from the St. Lawrence waterway.
This, too, in addition to the economy in cost
of transportation.
Congressman Jefferis of the Omaha district
has interested himself actively in this American
proposal, and in a speech before a Canadian
convention expressed the conviction that the
electric power secured from the canal would
more .than pay the costs of construction. En
gineers bear this statement out
'-.' Soon the bill to authorize construction will
be introduced in congress. It ought to go
through without opposition.
Community Spirit rirst.
A good deal of thought is inclining in the di
rection pointed by Percy Mackaye in his lecture
here. This is that by paying more attention to
community affairs cleaning up his own door
step, so to speak will man prepare the way for
international peace' and understanding.
"Neighborliness in a little town may beget
eeighborliness of nations," he said. "The in.
ternational mind is the neighborly mind; the
Deflation of the Farmer Ends.
Things are looking brighter for the farmer.
Justice, though tardy, has been rendered
the food producers of Nebraska, Iowa and
other western states by the reduction to 5 per
cent of the rediscount rate of the Federal Re
serve bank. Economists and business experts
who can not be considered as special advocates
of agriculture have said for a long time that
trade revival depends more than anything else
on bringing the prices of farm products up' to
the level at which other articles are sold. Cheaper
and freer credit in the producing sections is a
step in the direction of restoring agriculture
to a profitable basis.
The country bankers of Nebraska are en
titled to praise for the energetic way in which
they presented this view to the officials of the
Tenth Federal Reserve district. It no doubt
is true, as these officials assert, that large re
serves and the improved general financial situa
tion have made it possible to lop 1 per cent off
the rediscount rate. But it was Governor Mc-
Kelvie's letter to the head of the system that
brought tht subject up, and the rural bankers
carried on a campaign to which The Bee was
glad to lend its aid. Without the aid of any
organized effort in other states, Nebraska sees
its object accomplished. There is no reason
for controversy over why the rate was dropped,
but it will not do to say that the measured
opinion and careful advice of men familiar with
local financial conditions have no influence with
the credit machinery of the Federal Reserve.
For all that, the lowered interest rate is
evidence of a more plentiful supply of money
than has existed for 18 months. With the ex
ception of agriculture, prices have reached a
stabilized position. There are many encourag
ing elements, among which are improved
buying, increased manufactures and lessened
unemployment Old debts are being liquidated
in good volume, Liberty bonds and other se
curities are higher, and the reserve strength of
the financial system, as represented in the Fed
eral Reserve, is increased.
Deflation made prices more unequal than
they were during the high price era. Industry
was disorganized, confidence1 weakened and bus
iness morale shot to ' pieces. Gradually these
adverse factors are being overcome. The signal
now has been given that deflation of the farmer
is at an end. There could have been no other
thing which could have given the encourage
ment to Nebraska that this new rediscount rate
has brought ' ,
(From the New York Times.)
Recognition has sometimes been extended
to governments founded in blood and continu
ing by terrorisir, particularly when they showed
signs of perman.nce and other governments felt
that they muit get on with them somehow. No
such warrant can be pleaded for recognizing the
soviet government in Kusna in return for it
promise to admit the validity and obligation of
Russian debts contracted prior to the beginning
of the war. The government carried on by
Lenine, Trotzky and the Soviets is near a col
lapse. That has been made evident by the
desperate bids they nave been making for out
side support, They have professed an abandon
ment of their communistic principles and of
their hatred of capitalism: they have admitted
their experiment was premature; they have In
vited foreign capitalists to come in and develop
Russian resources; they have pointed to the re
moval of the ban on private ownership and
trade. If they had not been in a bad way and
threatened with disaster, none of these things
would have been done. Recognition by foreign
governments would be an immense encourage'
ment to them; it would strengthen their author
ity, it woijld indefinitely prolong the agony of
i.u3ia.
Moreover, they proffer a contract without
'J .! .Lf I - - - - 1. 1 1 . ' J J
consideration, incir Bargain is wiiouy uiic-biucu
What they say is in effect, ' Recognize and con
firm our right to devastate and ruin Russia,
to starve its workmen and shoot all the mem
bers of the intelligent classes, and we will recall
the repudiation of Russia's foreign debt." Con
tinuance of the soviet rule would make it impos
sible for Russia to pay any part of its foreign
debt, and that, is precisely the condition that
political recognition of the soviet government
would bring about 1 he Kussian land, the Kus
sian people, have abundant resources in their
natural wealth and their industry. Ihe Kussian
state under soviet control, now that the stolen
gold has been squandered, has no resources
whatever, save the power to , issue worthless
ruble notes. Under the administration of affairs
by Lenine and Trotzky and their kind Russia
will never be able to pay any part of its debt,
hardly be able to make any beginning with the
interest
It is necessary that this truth should be
recocnized, for this new offer of the soviet gov
ernment, absurd and hollow as it is, might be
erasoed at by creditor nations hungry for pay
ment. It would have some support from the
mercantile class who encouraged the British
government to make a treaty with Russia for
the reopening of trade: and, of course, the spout
ing radicals and "liberals" will applaud it. Eng
land has had her lesson. She learned that while
trade with Russia was an illusion, Russian bol
shevik were carrying on their propaganda for
undermining British power in the near east and
in India. The pestilent propagandists are at
work much nearer home than India. They are
busy in London, they are preaching their doc
trines in American cities. Proof is ample that
the communists and the soviet government are
one, as was pointed out long ago by our De
partment of State, and with a government pro
fessing such principles, a government that is the
declared enemy of every civilized government,
there can be no friendly relations. Our policy
toward the Russian people is one of unchang
ing friendship, of interest v. nd of concern for
their welfare. With the proletariat tyrants who
have brought them to starvation and ruin we
can have no dealings whatever. That policy
was laid down in Secretary Colby's note to the
Italian ambassador in August, a year ago. There
has been no occasion to change it.
On How Much May a Man
Marry?
In Wise King Solomon's Day.'
Solomon might have written "of the mak
ing of many strikes, there is no end." He
didn't. There was an open shop when the x
temple was built, and no eight-hour day in
all Jerusalem. Brooklyn Eagle.
As a matter of fact, several million good
men and true, scattered m all countries- of the
globe, believe that Solomon's Temple was con
structed by members of a great labor union, of
which Solomon himself was the head. These
also believe the eight-hour day prevailed on the
job, and teach as a fundamental principle of their
order that the twenty-four hours of the day fall
naturally into three divisions "eight hours for
the service of God and a distressed worthy
brother, eight hours for our usual vocations,
and eight for refreshment and sleep." It was
in Egypt under Pharaoh that the long work
day and the open shop prevailed.
General Dawes, director of the budget, has
not been long in running against a snag in
congress. Although be bas requested co-ordination
in the purchase of government supplies,
the joint congressional committee on printing
has gone ahead and ordered the public printer
to purchase paper as before. Public opinion is
behind General Dawes, and congress should not
forget that '
We do not get the logic of the coal .miners
striking because the court has ordered the com
pany not to hold out union dues. Nothing in
the order prevents the miner from paying his
dues to the proper officer of the union.
At the recent eugenic congress it was
charged that college girls were unwilling to
marry unless' they are assured many comforts
and luxuries and that this was one of the causes
of the decline of the birth rate among the fit.
The officers of Goucher college in Baltimore
thought this an unjust reflection on college girls,
and to refute it sent out a question to its
students; "On how small a sum do you think
a young couple could safely marry in these days
to live in the city?" Of the 103 answers re
ceived the average estimate was $48 a week.
Six of the girls gave estimates of $4,000 a year
or over, running up to $8,000 in one instance.
President Guth seems to think that this con
sensus refutes the charge of the eugenists, but
to millions of people who have raised families
on much smaller sums, ' even allowing for the
present small purchasing power of money, it
will seem to support the charge.
A young man with sufficient education and
background to be interesting to a college srirl
is fortunate if he is earning $40 a week at 30
or $50 a week at 40. The standard which these
college girls set up would postpone marriage
among those best fitted to rear and tram
children from 10 to IS years later than the time
at which physicians and moralists alike urge
that marriage should be undertaken. Late mar
riages are unfortunate not merely because they
limit the number of children ,but in many other
ways. Influences which promote them are anti
social, and if -the college education of girls is
such an influence then the opponents of the
higher education of women have something real
on which to base their opposition. Brooklyn

What Are "Morala?"
The children's court in New York has sum
moned more than 200 of the city's educators, edi
tors and other prominent men and women for
symposium on the subject, has a child of
morals? as the result of a legal contention in a
case on trial.
What are morals? There is no question but
that a child of S, properly brought up, knows
that it is wrong to steal or to lie. How does he
know it's wrong? Because he knows that he
will be punished if he does either.
But the argument will be made that the child
is swayed by fear and not by morality. A man
of 30 is tempted to steal but refrains. Why?
Often, too often, it is because he is afraid of ap
prehension and punishment. Consciously or sub
consciously there is fear of reprisal, if not in this
world, then m the next.
There are those who will claim that they do
the right thing because it is right. How do they
know it is right? Is it not because the experience
of generations has shown that punishment in
evitably follows failure to do certain things a
certain way?
The student of ethics can perhaps show that
fear does not always enter into a consideration
of right or wrong, but it will require .convincing
evidence to prove that the boy of S and the man
of 25 are not morally curbed by the same
shadow of fear of punishment. St. Louis Star.

nuentlv occurs durlnir fetal life, dur
ing the years of puberty and adoles
cence, during pregnancy, as a re
suit of mental shock or violent emo
tional storm, and as the result of
sore throat or some other infection.
But not all people or animals
other than man get thyroid enlarge
ment as the result of great strain.
What Is the reason? People differ,
Some stand up under. stress better
than others. But that Is a conclu
slon Itself and at best Is only a par
tlal answer.
In further explanation it Is said
that if the thyroid can get all the
iodine It needs It produces all the
thyroid secretion needed for spur
ring without harming itself, but if
the sunDlv or iodine is snore, u it
must "make bricks without straw,"
It enlarges or otherwise shows signs
of disease.
Acting upon this theory, ft is pro
posed to give a very small nose or
Iodine to people passing ' tnrougn
periods of great stress. Carrying
out this theory, a little iodine should
be given to pregnant women to sup
ply themselves and their babies, to
adolescent girls, to persons subject
to frequent sore . throats, ana to
those passing through periods of
great worry and emotional strain.

It is further limited. It should not
be given to people near salt water.
They get enough from the. air, the
spray and from sea food. Since
girls are six times as prone as boys
to develop goiters, it may not be
necessary to give it to boys.
Uo to now the only groups wno
have taken small doses of iodine as
a preventive and cure for goiter are
certain school children. The amount
given is very ' small. Drs. Marine
and Kimball now advise about two
grains of iodide of soda once a day
for two days out of eaoh week one
month. This is given twice a year
durinz the BPrlng and autumn. In
time it may be found that the dose.
can be made smaller still with advantage.
In one Swiss experiment the
prevalence of simple goiter in a
group of school children was re
duced In 15 months from su per
cent to 28 per cent. The method
is thought to cure cases of simple
goiter in the early stages, as well as
to prevent It should not be used
in the goiters accompanied by bulg

In short order; then I switched to
Jireh flour, .but found there was too
much carbohydrates, then for years
have been using Hepco flour In
the muffins, which are very much
superior to bran. A friend of mine
who also is troubled with the same
disease urged me to try the soy
bean flour, which I have done; it is
very palatable, but find the specific

give me any Idea of the amount of
arbohydrate which it contains? . I
purchased this flour from the Cen
tral Free dispensary of Chicago. I
find a little whisky of great benefit,
when it is obtainable: a pint will
serve for six weeks; also fats and
salt fish are what my system , re

REPLY.
Various analysis of soy bean meals
and flours give the carbohydrate
contents of the stock examined as
ranging from 26 to 35 per cent car
bohydrate, but the carbohydrate is
not supposed to be converted Into
sugar in the human body.
Pasteurizing Milk.
Mrs. C. H. writes: "Can you tell
mo how to pasteurize milk for a
baby? Can it be done successfully
at home? . Is it running a. risk to
take a healthy 9 months old baby
who has' been fed on pasteurized
milk to the country and allow him
to have milk fresh from our own
cows without pasteurizing it? Would
it be best to give it to him warm
from tho cow or to cool it in the
regular way? The baby is above
the average weight and has eight
teeth."
REPLY. .
' It is safe enough if you are sure
thu cows are not tuberculous. The
only way to be sure of that is by
having them tuberculin tested. Milk
can be pasteurized in the home.
Health departments supply leaflets
telling how to pasteurize at home.
Briefly the method consists in set
ting the bottle in a kettle of water,
the water reaching to the level of
the milk. A spoon should be used
to keep the bottle from resting flat
on the bottom of the kettle. The
water is heated until the milk
reaches 150 degrees and it is held at
about that for about 20 minutes. If
a thermometer is not available the
milk is apt to be warm enough when
little vapor bubbles form at the edge
of the bottle.

Gipsy Smith's MoilK-ra Meeting.
Omaha, Nov. I. To the Editor of
Tha Deo: Homers' day nad arrived.
Tha Auditorium was crowded to
overflowing. Ulpsy bmlth s fare was
beaming in antlclputlon of tha joy
and the "golden hour" which had
been planned for the shutlna and
tha mothers by tha kindly hearts of
the committee. everything was in
full swing. The program was being
carried out to perfection and It
seemed that the grant miiaa of peo
ple that thronged tha Auditorium
wars palpitating in unison of
thought and it was evident tha
Chrlat spirit had taken possession
of their hearts.
There were representatives from
every state in the union but four.
Every foreign country but a minor
few was also represented by a num
ber of individuals. Jt was to be a
wonderful afternoon and so it
proved to be. from the opening
address to the benediction there waa
not a flaw, but all went smoothly.
The love of Clod waa In the hearts
of the people who had gathered
there.
The gorgeous flowers, Gipsy
Smith's beaming countenance, the
clear tenor voice of Mr. AlcEwen
mingling with that of his own, in
song, the touching presentation of a
wonderrul basket of flowers by two
tiny, sweet-faced girls in white with
the words "To Our Beloved Gipsy
Smith, From the Choir," the sweet,
soprano voice in solo by a young
lady member of the M. E. church
choir, followed with a talk by Mrs.
Orey, a friend of Gipsy Smith's,
were all splendidly and effectively
carried out. Then cams the mes
sage, so ably delivered from the
gipsy's lips. It was a message of
Jesus' sorrows, indignities and
heartaches from those who could
not understand Htm and His untir
ing spirit that were revealed by His
healing the sick and administering
to those who so much needed Him
at times, without stopping for food
or drink during His mission here
on earth.
It was a day that would long be
remembered in the hearts of those
who had gathered there. The faces
of the shutlns and numberless moth
ers formed a picture wonderful to
gaze upon as they beamed with love
and anticipation of the Joy the day
was . to bring them. The many
voices uplifted in song mingling
with music produced by the magic
touch of Mr. Young's hands upon
the ivory keys of the piano seemed
to soar straight toward heaven from
the hearts of the audience. It was
sight which had a tendency to
create within the human heart a
faith in the nobility of souls.
As I sat overlooking the vast
crowd of people who had collected
there, and glad in their gladness,
my eye fell upon a young and whole
some-looking man in front and a
trine to the right of where I was
sitting. His face, honest and clean;
was beaming with health and his
dark, expressive eyes were clear and
bright He sat there wrapped in at
tention, his head at times bowed in
sincere prayer unabashed and un
ashamed to reveal to those about
him that he had Jesus in his heart
It brought to my mind these
thoughts:
We somehow expect those older
and more experienced in life to
turn to God for peace of mind and
spirit when in trouble and after
they have been tossed about on rest
less seas of life, yes this is a thing
not so to be wondered at But when
we stop and contemplate the many
temptations lurking in the path of
tha youth of today to lure them on
the road of destruction and sin, well,
this Is another thing. '
' And it somehow brings a greater
rejoicing to the heart when one sees
such a young man as the one of
whom I am writing, clean and pure
and spiritual, marching bravely un,
uimbaahed and unafraid to proclaim
to the world hla aeceutance of the
Savior who died to redm us from
sin.
Aa he sat thus in oblivion of all
about him, deep in devout thoutht
and with tha Christ spirit in his
heart, 1 gated long upon him and
with a prayer in my heart (though a
atrancer to ma), for hla future and
that his lift nileht aver be conse
crated to God. J'ea, of all that vaat
audience, thla waa the thing that
touched, fny heart tha most Thla
