I____' When Thomas J. Jefferson negotiated the Louisian purchase the matter was ths subject of great debates In congress. Daniel Webster characterised the territory under discussion as “the worthless west." When Seward negotiated the purchase of Alaska he was bitterly de nounced on ail sides. Even Seward himself excused the deal on the ground that Jt was merely a subterfuge; a plan to reward Russia for Us support of tbs union cause at a time when there was fear that Great Britain's might would he thrown to the side of the confederacy. For years after the deal was aonsummated Alaska was called “Seward's Folly. It is doubtful if Jefferson himself had more than an inkling of the tremendous resources and possibilities of the vast territory he bought from Napoleon at a cost lower than the present day value of the farm lands ‘ of Douglas county. To him the great middle west was a desert, and the only really worth while section of the purchase was the country adjacent to the lower Mississippi and a short distance up the Missouri. The portions now embraced in the great stales of Kansas and Nebraska, with portions of Wyoming and Colorado, were marked upon the school geographies of his day as "The Great American Desert.” And desert this section remained until the close of the civil war. Even the Argonnuts who blazed the way to the gold fields of California and the El Dorado of the Oregon country, In the late NO* amt early '50a. crossed the rolling plains of Kansas and Nebraska, and even to the foot hills of the Rockies, little thinking that lnst<“i*l of crossing a country doomed to forever remain a desert they weir- crossing h secilon that In a few short years would prove to be the richest, the most fertile and the most productive area in the known world. From Desert In Fertile Garden, It WHS not until after the civil war had dosed and the adventuring spirit of the discharged soldiers had led them to the region lie.vond the Missouri, that the great American desert began fading from the maps of the school geographies. The building of the Union Pacific was not for the purpose of settling the plains between the Missouri river and the Rocky mountains, hut was for the purpose of linking to the union the potential states on the Pacific coast. Ahraham Lincoln referred to this monumental railroad enterprise as "The Union and Pacific,” and neither he nor any of the promotors dreamed that the time would come when the great American desert arross which they bullded would excel in production Hie western slope they sought to tie to the American union by those bonds of steel. Scarce 50 years have passed slrne the driving of the golden spike nl Promontory point, but in that time the great American desert has been reclaimed, and one year’s hay crop of Nebraska is worth double the amount Jefferson paid for the whole of the Immense area Included In the Louisiana purchase. Every year during the last decade the hens of Nebraska laid eggs worth far more than the price paid to Napoleon for an area comprising practically one third of the area of the republic today. In 1923 the gr’i.pn butter minted from the cream of Nebraska, cows was worth more than the gold paid to Napoleon by Jefferson. The products of Nebraska, soil crops and live stock, for any single year In the last decade were worth enough money to lay a. ribbon of $20 bills around Hie entire 1,109 miles of the border* of France. Broadly speaking all the great scope of counlVy lying between the Mississippi river and the eastern borders of the stiites touching the Pacific ocean was, liardly more than a half century ago, deemed practically worth less. Ho worthless iti fact that Napoleon thought he had turned a trick on Hie United Htates by selling It for 115.000,090, And Jerfcrson was d< noum-ed by the statesmen of bis time for having paid such an outrageous price for n “worthless expanse of desert Hut It was In 1920 Ihiit this t very same expanse produced soli crops worth more than *3.000,000.000. practically one flflll of the value of the tolal soil crops of Ihe »nHi e United Slates In that same year tills mice worthless section produced iieirlv one half the live stock wealth produced in tin- lepubllc that year. Ill Hits vear 19”4 two states within the confines of this once "Worthless West" will produce approximately one-fifth of all the wheat produced in the United States. The Kvolution of Transportation. I ess than three-quarters of a century ago, weary emigrant* trailed theirJSlow ox teams across this "Worthless West," their eyes fixed upon the sun down slopes of the Pacific coast. For 600 miles across the rolling plains thought to be barren but rich beyond compare In potential wealth; over 600 miles of mountains, snow-capped and looked upon as merely a barrier which must be surmounted to reach a promised land beyond, but rich beyond human calculation In mineral wealth—over 1,100 miles the emigrants toiled in heart breaking weariness. They visioned only a small territory In the northwest, and thought ns they traveled over plains and mountain ranges that they were forever leaving kindred and former homes Uardly a one hoped ever to make the backward Journey because of its hardships. They had burled comrades all along the weary miles, and the bleached hones of their domestic nnimals made a line of glistening white to mark the course of their torturous Journey. A quarter of a century later the Journey that took them a year to make was made in a week over the steel highway of the Union Pacific. Another quarter of a century saw that time cut In half, and still another quarter century saw the men of the sir making the same distance in less than ?4 hours. Then It took nine months to get a letter hack to friends and relatives left east of the Mississippi river. Today It Is a matter of minutes only to get In touch with the telephone or the telegraph. Their grandchildren go farther in a day by automobile than they went in a month with their ox teams. In ths last 50 years ths ones "Worthless West" hss produced more agricultural, live stock and mineral wealth than the other portion of the republic produced in the first 100 years of our national history. Great Cities Where Onre Stood Indian Villages. It was the surplus wheat and corn and beef and pork and mutton of tills once "Worthless West” that fed the allied armies. Scarcely more than a half century ago the "Worthless West” of Web ster’s visioning saw its hardy pioneer* fighting off the savage Indian foe Today it is dotted In all its broad expanse by teeming town* and cities, fashioned Into an incomparable landscape of cultivated farms, and filled with home* In which happiness and content reign In greater menaur* than anywhere else upon Clod’s footstool. Tills, today, is the "Worthless West" that Thomas Jefferson bought, tlie "Great American Desert" of the school geographies over which our gi andfathers and grandmother* pored in a time that seems but yesterday. The sun shines upon no equal expanse so wonderful In Its develop nient, so rich in Its resources or so bountiful In Its production. • — - - . -, _J The Inquisitive Reporter Of course you do not like to see your name In the paper.

G. WBI.LS, (Author of “The Outlln® of History."* Special Cable Dispatch to The Omaha Her. London. August 1.—The British Umpire exhibition at Wembley is open to all sorts of criticism and is occasionally quite absurd, but It con trives to be entertaining. Many of us dislike the Kipling quality and the strong unpleasant flavor of imperial preference, that hang about it. I have reviled its commercialism; its relative disregard of educational duties and responsibilities; its suggestion of imperial self-sufli'lency. But all sorts of conferences are meeting at Wem bley and occasionally a strong breath of human common sense dispels for a time the stuffy, foggy conceit of our recent and transitory empire, Wembley, in spite of itself, becomes international and contributes to the project of a new world. The British electrical and associ ated trades have been holding a most enlightening and hopeful conference on the power resources of the world— not of the empire be It noted, but of the world. Prominent among the speakers at the opening was the secre tary of the United States federal power commission, the president of the Italian electric committee and other “outsiders.’’ A real attempt to see the world as one economic whole has been made. A frank admission of the need for organized world unity and world co-operation underlies the activities of this particular gather ing. Prince Grows in Wisdom. The president of the conference was the prince of Wales. He made a very remarkable speech. Three or four years ago I made a number of peo ple extremely indignant by criticising the world tour of the prince. I com plained that his speeches and pro ceedings seemed to ignore the world situation and to intensify the imper ialist egotism of the narrower sort of Kngllsh throughout the world. He did seem to me then to be behaving, as so many army and Indian civil service people and so forth still be have, as If the British empire was s clique of Anglican communities aloof from the common interests of mankind. Quite a number of worthy persons seemed to think that a typi cal common Knglishman like myself had no right to pass a judgment upon a young man, a quarter of a century hit Junior, simply because that young man happened to be the heir apparent. They wanted him to be treated as divine, above politic*. Hut that sort of thin* is not In the English tradition. The British royal, family Is not divine; tt cannot keep out of politics if it is to function at all, because It has constantly to speak and act in the empire as a whole; and It is a matter of very great importance that the prince should show himself ss he has now shown himself, growing In political wisdom and sensible of the wider vision of human unity that opens be fore mankind. Here for example is a sentence from his speech in which he sinks the prince altogether, lost In that much nobler tiling, the crea ative citizen of the world. "Finance, science and research are universal, but the utilization of the results derived from these activities is not universal and in this dispar ity lies one of the grebtest obstacles to progress." And again; "You have before you. In the reports submitted to the world power conference, the w-ar material for a survey of the power resources of the world; you can now explore many countries, which have hitherto been veiled in mystery, and assess at their true value the possibilities of Immense Industrial development In many of them; you may, from this material, srert the structure which will go beiond the confines of one country, or group of countries, and include all those parts of the world where man can hope to prosper. In ternational co-operation may emerge from the realm of the Ideal Into the realm of practical utilization as the result of your deliberations, and I sincerely trust that full success will attend them." Repudiate* Royalty. I doubt if any royal personage has ever go distinctly repudiated that nar row particularism to the realm, to which royalty is supposed to be dis tinctively pledged. This is hoisting the flag of the world state over all the imperial flags that wave from the Wembley buildings as plainly and frankly as, considering all things, it can be done—at Wembley. In very many ways the last half year has been a year of mental and moral recovery In Europe. A year ago when one wrote of nationalism as a dangerous and dividing senti ment, of national sovereignty as a nuisance, of the pre eruption of this or that supply of necessary national material in the interests of the ex ploiters under this or that flog ss a method of crippling and wasting ths whole economic life of mankind, ons felt that one was writing and think ing in an almost hopeless minority. All (he world seemed to have gone nationalist and exclusive. One felt one shouted to an entirely Inattentive preoccupied crowd under a stormy sky against whirh nothing was bright but the national and imperial flags. Flags were supreme. Now It is as If the sun of reason shone everywhere and the sundering flags visibly droop in that sunlight. There are moments when it would spem that after all man is a reason able creature. The accumulation of considerations that is now plainly driving men in spite of ancient tradi tion and prejudices towards an or ganised cosmopolitanism is very great. These considerations come in on us from all sides. While one is refusing to be anything but an Isolated patriot on this count, one is being under mined almost unawares upon another. Many of us who will hear of no super government to save ns from war. nor of anv properly equipped and pro vided super-court to settle inter national disputes, find ourselves pres ently confronted by the problem of epidemics and consenting to the idea of super national controls from the health point of view. The postal union, which the great war strained but has not destroyed, is after all ■ illy the thin framework of a much more comprehensive union of com munications. When I read the speech of the prince of Wales of the world's power conference I wss at once re minded of the preachings and efforts of that wonderful old man, David Lubln, the Israelite who set up the international institute of agriculture. The chief ohjectlve of this “institute ' was s contemporary survey with a view to a proper distribution of the worlds staple productions. Shortages were to he anticipated and headed off: over-production was to he re strained. And arising out of this main idea was Lubin's secondary project, tbe placing of all the ship ping of the world and all the great International railway lines—he lived before air transport seemed a prob ability—under one world authority which would fix freights as we fix postal charges. This power confer ence has been talking pure Lublnism about the world distribution of power. I suppose it Is because I had a bio logical training that I find one of the most attractive arguments for world unity and the suppression of flag worship. in the need of protecting whalee from ourselves and ourselves from bacteria. The dwindling world fauna of this planet Is in urgent need of international game lawa and a super-national gamekeeper. Species of whales are being exterminated be cause the ocean la no man's land and if one state restrains Its whalers from excessive wasteful slaughter, they ran shelter their activities beneath some less scrupulous flag. Diseases rannot be stamped out of the world by systematic sanitation while one nffected power see* fit to exercise Its sovereign right to remain filthy. And any species of birds or beasts that lives under a careless flag may be exterminated by the sportsman and no one have a right to protest. The gorilla they say la going fast and the African elephant. These marvels of life, these strange and wonderful beings of whore vitality and Impulses we know so little, are being killed because they are Insuf ficiently protected. Their chief slaughterers are patriotic collectors and the fewer the survivors the bet ter Is the competition for specimens to adorn their beastly national col lections. Yet the gorilla belongs not to the flag that claims Its habitat but to all mankind. It belongs to me, to any man in Canada or in Texaa as much as it does to any West African or any Belgian. But there is no world control to protect these gro tesque and marvelous creatures, for us and for our childrens’ children. They will go—one more vivid item In the vast wastage of animal, vege table and mineral wealth that the scrambling insufficiency of mere flag rule Involves. For them and for a thousand vital treasures the world government may come too late. Yet that it is coming rapidly and surely, the world and the spirit of the dis course of the prince of Wales, In that very temple of British Imperial exclu siveness, the Wembley empire ex hibition. bear witness. Wembley was to have Inaugurated Imperial prefer ence but it is really Imperial pref erence lying in state. I wonder how many years it will be before we have a world exhibition to bring home to us the need for free trade, free speech and free movement everywhere un der unified w-orld controls) (Copyright, 1 bg ♦ > ' ■ 1 " ' ■ ■ ' X. i Stupidity of British and French Premiers Hurts Dawes Plan L. .. .... —. . ... - .....—- ^ By DAVID MX)YD GEORGE.

When the preaent London confer , nee met. every Interested power had already accepted the Dawe* report— months ago. The Tolncare ministry passed Into history weeks ago, and weeks before its demise—weeks be fore it expected death was nigh—It accepted the Dawes report. Dust ie already accumulating In the foreign office pigeonholes on th# Dawea ac ceptance hy fbsrmany. Britain. Italy and Belgium assented In th# early spring day* amid "loud cheers' In their respective parliaments. Th# Dawes report, aa It left the ante ! room after the signature of all ! i-artlca, was smothered In confetti of every color and quality. Politicians, journalists, financiers, hualnesa men of every nationality all rained per fumed compliment* upon It. And yet the conference which wsa called, aa we all hoped, hut formally, to ratify thla much assented document, ta still arguing, maneuvering and varilatlng about eomethlng which has, over and over again, been agreed and then re garded and finally reaffirmed There have been four commission* of eminent politicians, experts and jurists sitting for more than a fort night to Interpret an agreed report and additional commission* appointed or called In to dlscuas findings or clear up reservations of original com mission*, and plenary sittings to ex plain away misunderstandings of the lot. Why all this maddening fuaa’ The committee of expert* eucceeded. In February. In at latt disentangling the confused skein left hy the Ituhr muddle—they wound the thread up Into a neat hall everywhere known a* the Dawes report. It was all ready for the knitting of a firm peace and yet the tangle seem* now aa hopeless a*, ever. Failure Inconceivable. It will all rome right tn the end. It ta Inroncelvable that there should be failure to agree when everybody wan1* to agree. At tlenoa It was different. The French delegates were Instructed to make disagreement. Klght hundred telegrams from Qual d'Oraay kept them faithful to their treacherous mission. Belgium placed a poor, servile psrt. M. Ttieunla, who is an honorable man, disdained the role assigned to his government and stay ed at home. Hut he found a worthy Instrument. The conference was doomed to disagree. But her# la a conference where every power repre sented Is anxious to settle. The prin cipal parties were In such a hurry to agree and to let It he known that they were agreed that they reached agreement and proclaimed agreement before they had the slightest Idea aa to what they had agreed upon. Hence tlie nilaihlef. The handling has been clumsy beyond all belief. The Chequer* muddle, followed by the Hurts surrender, necrssurlly led to the l.ondoit recantation. A perfectly aim pie proposition lias been tied up Into almost Inextricable knot* by histri onic amateurishness. Clumsy 1‘reinlrni. When the Hrttlsli and French prime ministers met to discuss the report neither of them had tsken the trouble to consult the only advisers who could have given them the whole of the facte and proffered some gu.dance as to tlie best method of dentttig with them. It must have been evident to any man of affairs that the success nr fuiluie of tbe Dawes scheme vie ponded on the chances of floating the £40.000,000 loan. Without that the Do w e* plan would be stillborn. Will \ It be believe,) that Messrs. Harriot j iltd MacDonald held their Chequers and Paria conferences without any previous ronsuitation with their fi nancial advisers as to conditions un der which flotation would be possible? Nor were any financial persons per mitted to take part in these fatuous variations on the not diplomacy. Had they been present the two prime min isters would have been told that the Paris terms were impossible. But no representative of the British treasury was allowed to enter these hallowed conclaves. The ground had not been surveyed and prospected in either Britain or France with a view to as certaining how the Dawes report could best be brought Into operation. And, since the British atid French premiers never approached their own finance ministers or bankers, it is hardly necessary to aay that they never sounded the American finan ciers as to the conditions which they would Impose before they could ad vance their shares of the prospective loan. Tet, without the help of the American hankers, the experts' report is a dead letter. Did the French or British governments ever communi cate on the subject with the American secretary of state'' He is primarily responsible for the appointment of the expert commission. Was he ever asked hts opinion as to the best method of carrying out Its recom mendations’ If he wss consulted, then why was his advice rejected’ I sicks Experience. M Herrlot may be excused for his ill prepared precipitancy. He is very new to these great tasks. He held high office for the first time when he became prime minister of France last month, and he has had no time for elaborate examination and prep aration. Mr. MacDonald has not quit# as good an excuse He hat been In office several months. It Is true that he had no previous experience of of fice or business. But that made It all the more necessary that he should confer carefully with those who had a thorough acquaintance with the Intricacies of thrse complicated prob lems. and who could Inform him and instruct him ss to the position and warn him as to the perils. They were ready to his hand at the treas ury and In th# city. He had plenty of time to steep himself In fact, fig ure and good counsel. Without any private rehearsals, ha dashed on the slag® when the lights were on and the house packed wllh an expectant audience That Is why a play, which was destined for an easy success, drags wearily. Silll. It must surely succeed If they keep st It. The au dience Is patient as well ss eipectsnt. It Is also friendly and Interested, and therefore profoundly anxious for suc cess. Fortunately, the ablest and most experienced statesman in the confer ence—K. Theunis—Is the one who has the most direct Interest In pulling through the Dawes report. I can un demand Frenchmen being honestly anxious about the effect which the carrying out of some of the experts' recommendations might have on the security of their country. I de not take their view. Sooner or later, they must trust for their safety to the goodwill of the world. But they have a bitter experience which makes them anxious The world a goodwill came In too late In 1914 to protect their fairest provinces from the rav aging claws at the devastator.
