PAGE EIGHT Published Daily Except Sunday By the Anaheim Printing and Publishing Co., Corner East Center and Emily Streets Anaheim, California. S. S. CONKLIN .....Publisher HERALD EDITORIALS NOT THE SAME “This country said at the last election, and by seven millions, that it wanted nothing to do with the Versailles treaty. Yesterday the United States signed a treaty with Japan, France and England, guaranteeing to protect the situation in the Pacific. Quite a change since election day, 1920.” Such is the statement of an editor who bitterly opposes every governmental policy save that designated to leave this country not only isolated, but presenting to all other countries a front of hostility. He utters himself now as though devoted to American welfare. It is worth bearing in mind that a short term of years ago, his devotion was all for German welfare, the two nations then being at war. This, however, is incidental. There is implied in the quoted paragraph, that the present pact, which the editor fought by base methods, is in some sort a duplication of the Versailles treaty. This implication is unjust, and lacks basis in fact. Some Americans feared that the Versailles treaty would have the effect of dragging the United States into war concerning questions not vital to itself. The effect of the present pact could not be other than to bar out the possibility of war. Such is its avowed purpose, and such, according to all logical consideration, must be the result. While a war in Europe could not leave this country unconcerned, for it would shake the whole structure of civilization, a war in the Pacific would involve the United States directly. To prevent a war in the West became a pressing duty. It has been recognized and met. The pact The effect of the present pact could not be other than to bar out the possibility of war. Such is its avowed purpose, and such, according to all logical consideration, must be the result. While a war in Europe could not leave this country unconcerned, for it would shake the whole structure of civilization, a war in the Pacific would involve the United States directly. To prevent a war in the West became a pressing duty. It has been recognized and met. The pact is in no sense an endorsement of the treaty of Versailles, although it may contain a principle that, made wider in scope, will in the end cause a treaty similar to the one rejected, to be endorsed by the peoples of both continents. REARING THE BOGIE MAN The public is being informed that the ratification of the Pacific pact would be an end to the Monroe doctrine. In relation to this matter two things may be assumed: That the statement is made by persons who know it to be untrue, because in relation to other phases of the same pact they have been notoriously untruthful; That the public is too well aware of the nature of the agreement, and the nature of its traducers, to be in danger of being fooled. The Monroe doctrine has not been assailed, imperilled, or had connection with the agreement. The attempt is now being made to drag it in. It is being employed in the well-known role of Bogie man. In the Pacific were certain interests pertaining to more than a single power. There was danger of a clash. Signs of misunderstanding were beginning to appear. The consent of all four powers to an amicable arrangement defining the rights of each, agreeing upon a course designed to avoid friction, and yet to adjust such complication as might arise, was the result of the conference. This cannot be deemed otherwise than beneficient. Its effect is heightened by arrival at a conclusion to cut down armaments and to institute a naval holiday. CHINA INSISTING ON RIGHTS The fact is not to be deplored that China should insist upon her rights. The real humor of the conference seems to be to accord such rights. So far as Japan may still entertain thought of governing China in spots, the other members of the compact, it may be assumed, will be able gently to dissuade her. If the process cause delay, no serious harm is to be apprehended. While the conference is in session, engaged in a good work, is the precise time for finishing the task properly. As intimated in previous treatment of the subject, the elimination of Japan from China would be greatly to the benefit of the former. The Japanese tread on dangerous ground while they are there. Ask your Chinese gardener what he thinks about tertain thought of governing China in spots, the other members of the compact, it may be assumed, will be able gently to dissuade her. If the process cause delay, no serious harm is to be apprehended. While the conference is in session, engaged in a good work, is the precise time for finishing the task properly. As intimated in previous treatment of the subject, the elimination of Japan from China would be greatly to the benefit of the former. The Japanese tread on dangerous ground while they are there. Ask your Chinese gardener what he thinks, about Japan. The chances are that he will say that in a few years there will be no Japan. This is an indication of the mood that is being instilled into the millions of Chinese. If they should be goaded on to wrath, Japan, even with its military and naval strength kept at the highest possible pitch of efficiency, would be overwhelmed. The Chinese have not for centuries shown any desire to be aggressive. It begins to be evident that they could be aroused to aggression, and woe to the people so foolish as to arouse them. Jealousy is the tabasco sauce of love. Two Hunters Thrown From Boat Drown SEATTLE, Dec. 19.—Two Seattle men were drowned and a third is suffering from exposure as the result of a hunting tragedy yesterday at Hoggum Bay, a duck preserve. The dead are Donald C. Campbell, mining engineer, and Arthur W. Bloomquist, bond salesman. The men were thrown into the water when their boat struck a log. Man Who Campaigned With Lincoln Is Dead SAN BERNARDINO, Dec. 19.—R. S. Hick, aged 93 years, who campaigned with Abraham Lincoln and was one of the few surviving delegates of the convention at Springfield, Ill., in 1854 when the republican party organization was started, is dead here. Mr. Hick was born at Floyd, N. Y., in 1829. He was elected to the legislature of Illinois in 1858 from Livingstone, La Salle and Grundy counties. He later served as state senator in Kansas from Pottawatomie county. KEEPING UP WITH THE JO NAHEIM DAILY HER LS Between Ourselves By Della M. Stewart There's one variety of parent that most of us could see consigned to slow tortures without regret. It's the one who depends on the fearsome "bogie man," or "that awful police-man around the corner" as a means of discipline for offspring. We've all heard it. "Stop your crying!" (Rising crescendo of voice, often accompanied by violent shakings of the little offender.) "Stop this minute! S-T-O-P, or the bogie man will get you! See him hiding in the corner there? Come, Bogie Man, come get him!" (Another shake, and so on, until the child is too scared and bewildered to do anything else than scream.) Why expect figs to grow from thistles? Why expect truth in a child and lie to him whenever we wish? Why expect happy obedience and proceed to frighten him half out of his wits? Only a few weeks ago, a small child died in agony, crying out for protection against the terrible "bogie man" with which his parents had peopleled his dreaming and waking hours. Why expect respect from our children when we are not worth it? Why so openly confess to others the shortness of our tempers, the paucity of our resources for government? Why show so plainly our own untruth, our own stupidity, our own ignorance, our own impatience? It's really too bad that for such parents there is not available swift justice—that some giant "bogie man" does not lurk near, to whom they may be thrown! They richly deserve it! THE ONCE OVER By H.

The play has reached the big situation wherein the hero confesses his great love for the heroine and pleads with her to flee with him to Perth Amboy. He: Beatrice, you must listen to me.

Snap Shots By Henry James Guests at booze parties are immune to arrest, but not to the effects of the booze. Bobby Meusel, ball player, has taken a wife. The permission of Judge Landis was not necessary. Worthy folk have been mentioned as the "salt of the earth." Kansas women want to be the pepper. France does not say the war debt does not exist. A correspondent says that France says that the debt does not exist. Very different. With the raising of telephone rates in Los Angeles the temperature of the average patron also has been raised. If a film star is allowed divorce for the sake of publicity, at least the number of her divorces ought to be limited. Explorer Stefansson may affirm that the north pole is a region of bloom, but the public awaits photographs of its floral growth. Lord Bryce believes in the future of America. This is the calm view, and no wild dream of optimism. Roy Gardner seems to be a man of his word so far as saying that he will break jail. He has announced again his customary get-away.

She (tenderly): Ah, Clement, don't Little Stories for Bedtime By THORNTON W. BURGESS (Copyright by J. G. Lloyd) PETER RABBIT CLIMBS ON PADDY'S ROOF VERY, very carefully Peter Rabbit crept across the smooth ice of Paddy the Beaver's pond. Already Peter had bumped the back of his head and had bumped his nose, and he had no intention of getting any more bumps if he could help it. So he watched every step and presently without another tumble he reached Paddy's house. Once the winter before Peter had visited the house of Jerry Muskrat out in the Smiling Pool, so he thought he knew just what to expect. But he found that he didn't know as much as he thought he did. The fact is that while Paddy's house was very like Jerry's in some ways, in others it was very different. It had been no trouble at all to jump up on the roof of Jerry's house, but Peter went three times around Paddy's house before he found a place where he could scramble up, and even then he slipped and scraped his shins. But he reached the top at last and there sat down to get his breath. And while he panted for breath Peter looked around, and suddenly his heart gave a great jump. Someone else had been before him on the roof of Paddy's house, and Peter had only one good work done out is worth more than other ideas together that are worked out. So he goes on hard work great ideas and doing nothing them, and this is what makes happy-go-lucky, without a real hard and never knowing just where next meal is coming from. Now, as Peter sat on the rooftem seemed to him that he could see Paddy the Beaver. Yes, sir, the way it seemed. There could no doubt about it! He certainly smell Paddy the Beaver. Peter's ears stood straight; up in surprise looked this way and looked this way and every minute grew more zled. It was just as if Paddy right close to hand, and yet all I could see was a great white world in which he seemed to be only thing alive. Of course, Peter thought right away that Paddy be in his house, but how could smell of him come through that hard roof which even Old Man Co couldn't break through? This was much for Peter and he just had believe that Paddy was somehow outside until—well, until he pened to discover something. man. Mr. Knoor is nothing if not systematic.

The husband alleges also that his wife is "an inveterate cigaret smoker and buys them by the hundreds." Many a good man lives and dies in the bachelor class because no wives plea him enough to show him the error of his ways.

But he reached the top at last and there sat down to get his breath. And while he panted for breath Peter looked around, and suddenly his heart gave a great jump. Someone else had been before him; on the roof of Paddy's hiusse and Peter had only to glance at one of the footprints in the snow to know who somebody was. It was Old Man Coyote. There was no doubt about it. Old Man Coyote certainly had been on the roof of Paddy's house and more than this, he had tried to tear the roof open. Yes, sir, that is just what he had tried to do. Peter could tell that by the way the snow was dug up. But the snow was all he had been able to dig, for the mud of the roof was as hard as stone. You see, Paddy had put that mud there to freeze the very night that Jack Frost had arrived and Jack Frost had made it so hard that Old Man Coyote might have worn his claws quite off without being able to way and every minute grew more zilled. It was just as if Paddy right close to hand, and yet all I could see was a great white world in which he seemed to be only thing alive. Of course, Peter thought right away that Paddy may be in his house, but how could smell of him come through that hard roof which even Old Man Coyote couldn't break through?
