THE FILES CH DEMANDS
France demands superiority of
240, OuO tons over Italy, and Italy
shows no disposition to abandon par
ity with France as a condition to a
five-Power treaty.
Thus the London naval conference
is brought to the pass forecast by
the French note of December 21, af
ter which warnings were sounded to
both President Hoover and Premier
Ma: Donald that to hold a five-Power
naval parley at this time might be
a mistake.
The Washington conference of ten
years ago tecognized the principle of
Franco-Italian parity at 35 per cent
of the Ansrlo-American standard. The
Italian fleet was at that time infer
ior to the French and it remains so
today. Neither country has built a
capital ship since the war. But the
cruiser program of Italy is such that
it will result in virtual parity. In
submarines, built and building, Italy
is inferior to France by about ten to
six.
It is the Fascist regime that has
forced the hand of France at London.
Ilcfore Mussolini, Italy was content
with the principle of Franco-Italian
parity. The rivalries of the two
tountries in Africa were intense, but
Italy despaired of matching the mili
tary and naval strength of France.
Not so Mussolini. His inspiration is
the powerful Roman tradition. He
believes the Italians have in them
the stuff of Rome, if they will but
have her spirit. It is a potent tonic,
and it is no exaggeration to say that
all Italy is drunk with it.
The Italians will launch four new
cruisers April 27 and on the same
day the Government will draft 9 0.
ooo young Vanguardists into the
Fascist militia.
Thus the hopes of a five-power
treaty at London could not be worse.
The French will not accept naval
parity with Italy, nor is there any
power that can compel them to do so.
France has been quite frank in stat
ing that to make Italy her equal
would be to imperil her vast African
empire, which is almost five times as
great as Italy's possessions in Africa,
and the population of which is about
IT timesas great.
Mussolini will not. of course, agree
to the mere principle of Franco-Italian
parity. His price for a five-Power
treaty is actual parity with France.
So that the London conference has
before it little better than an agree
ment among the United States, Great
Britain and Japan. Mr. Gibson, one
of our delegates, says it means a sav
ing of $1(00,000.000 in battleship
building during the next six years.
It places a limitation upon cruisers,
destroyers and submarines. It there
fore extends as to capital ships the
work begun at the Washington con
ference, and it advances the limita
tion of armaments to war vessels not
covered in the Washington agree
ment. This was the real objective
of the conference. The rest was never
better than a phantasy in a world of
realities.
It is quite true that a three
Power treaty is in peril of disturb
ance by the Franco-Italian difficulty.
That has not yet proved a matter
which can be brought within the con
trol of any international concert. It
unhappily has in it the germs of
war.
-:o:-
PHIVATE USE OF PUBLIC FUNDS
The state auditor of Kansas is
under attack for having turned to
his own use ?1.492 received from the
sale of state lands. To the charge of
embezzlement his answer is that he
alterwards restored the money to
the state, with interest for the time
during which it had been with
drawn. In this, he asserts, there was
no violation of law.
The only comment to be made on
such a plea is that if the laws of
Kansas are loose enough to permit
such a withdrawal of public funds
for private use, then the legislature
should be called in special session to
pass laws guaranteeing protection
to the public funds.
In countless cases of embezzle
ment from banks, public funds, etc.,
pleas have been made by the offender
that he had intended merely to bor
row the money for a short time and
then repay it, but unfortunate stock
speculations, or some other mis
'hance. has made repayment impos
sible. There is but one proper way
to handle such secret "borrowings,"
and that is to treat them simply as
embezzlement. If the idea that re
payment legalizes the original ab
straction of the money were gener
ally admitted, the line between fi
nancial honesty and dishonesty would
be hopelessly blurred.
: :o:
Very comforting is the statement
that the United States consumes
more than 32.000,000,000 eggs a
year. No matter what the rumpus,
statisticians might set up, the hens
would never have laid them 'end to
end."
THE imiiLOIENT DEPTHS
Two thousand stellar orbs have
been measured as to distance from
the earth. Eighteen years ago the
distances of not more than one hun
dred stars were reliably known.
These measurements are express
ed in terms of millions of light years,
and the conceptions of these stupen
dous distances rest particularly upon
the foundation work cf Dr. Samuel
Alfred Mitchell, professor of astron
omy at the University of Virginia.
A knowledge that was denied to
the awcy watchers on Chaldean
towers is the priceless possession cf
the scientific star gazers of today.
Dr. Mitchell has demonstrated a
world record by accomplishing the
measurement of direct distances be
tween earth and stars, the total num
ber of stars so measured in the deeps
of the firmament amounting to about
two thousand.
From a known base line the as
tronomer of the present day is able
to compute the mighty stellar dis
tances, to trend upon infinity.
These distant inscrutable factors
in the universal cosmos speak of in
numerable myriads of other worlds in
the fathomless fields of space; they
seem to sing "Glory to Gad in the
Highest" as no other works of His
hands can do, for they look down
with eternal calm upon all things of
physical majesty and power of which
we may possess a knowledge; they
are more truly awesome than mighty
mountains, than angry seas, than
colossal conflagration or the earth
quake's appalling convulsions, the
sweep of storms or the eruption of
volcanoes.
And yet we walk beneath the
stars, for the most part, indifferent,
unobserving, as unmoved as though
they represented nothing more than
a superior sort of electric light!
But they truly are torches which
radiate tbe light and beauty of God's
infinity. Through the divine necrom
acy of Science we now are able to
hold with them a nearer comradeship,
so to speak, in this day of mechani
zation and materialistic urge.
THE HIGEWAYS
President Hoover has signed the
Dowell bill, authorizing the most ex
tensive and expensive highway build
ing program in the history of the
country. We are following the un
excelled example of Rome in our
search for a stupendous and lasting
prosperity. The country without an
extensive network of good highways
is a country that is unprogressive
backward.
The automobile has, most literally,
opened up new avenues of comfort,
life and happiness, both for the city
and countrj' dweller. Our roads,
state and national, are covering the
United States with the veins and ar
teries of magnificent empire. The
city is taken to the countrj- and the
country is brought to the city. States
become near neighbors. The farmer
is gathered onto the tide which
sweeps him to new and undreamed
of opportunity. And still the roads
reach onward and onward. It will
not be long until the American con
tinents will be joined and welded by
these majestic thoroughfares.
