There is reason to believe that by the very boldness of their attempt to mold public opinion here these British spokesmen will deflect their own purposes; nevertheless, it will be the part of wisdom for Americans to answer through the press and on the rostrum the misleading arguments put forth in the effort to cause the United States to depart from its traditional policy of independence from European alliances. One of the latest of the British spokesmen to lay his views before the American readers is Sir George Palsh who, on a visit to this country a year or so ago, made a special effort to build up sentiment in this country in behalf of cancellation of debts due the United States from European countries. At the present time he is writing a series of articles from Geneva and is having them published in America. the Genoa conference will take cognizance of the terrible consequences that would come from a failure to agree upon a feasible, bonafide plan to foster peace and to promote economic rehabilitation. Prejudice and passion and overwrought fears should be relegated at Genoa. There yet is opportunity to redeem the conference from threatened disruption and disaster. Will Europe prove to the world that the fires of civilization and orderly progress are not dying out in that continent? It is to be hoped and prayed that it will.

ROYAL BAKING POWDER Absolutely Pure Contains No Alum Leaves No Send for New Royal Cook Book—Royal Baking Powder Co., 130 William One of the latest of the British spokesmen to lay his views before the American readers is Sir George Palish, who, on a visit to this country a year or so ago, made a special effort to build up sentiment in this country in behalf of cancellation of debts due the United States from European countries. At the present time he is writing a series of articles from Genoa and is having them published in America. Evidently with the expectation that he will arouse the sympathies of Americans and perhaps appeal to their vanity, Sir George asserts that never was the human race exposed to greater danger; that relief depends upon the Genoa conference and that, 'nation can escape the consequences of its decisions,' the inference being that by refusal to send representatives of Genoa the United States must take responsibility for any disaster the human race may suffer. Notwithstanding the official decision that this country will send no representative to the conference, Sir George Palish expresses the opinion that as soon as Europe is ready to take whatever measures the situation demands in order to extricate herself from the danger that threatens her, American participation in the work of European reconstruction will no longer be refused. This is an indirect statement that America has refused to do what could reasonably be expected in the reconstruction of Europe. The fact is that since the signing of the armistice the government and private interests in the United States have extended credit to Europe to the extent of eight billion dollars. The United States government has deferred the collection of either principal or interest on the eleven billion dollar debt owed by European governments to this government. The United States, more generously than any other country, extended aid to starving Russians; the United State stook the lead in a conference of nations interested in the Pacific resulting in settling numerous questions which were possible causes of war, and brought about an agreement for reduction of armaments with enormous saving of public expenditures for all of the nations concerned. The United States, not only out of its material resources, but also by its moral example, has done all that any reasonable person could ask toward reconstruction of European and promotion of peace and prosperity throughout the world. In the fact of this record Sir George Palish has thundered at a failure to agree upon a feasible, bonafide plan to foster peace and to promote economic rehabilitation. Prejudice and passion and overwrought fears should be relegated at Genoa. There yet is opportunity to redeem the conference from threatened disruption and disaster. Will Europe prove to the world that the fires of civilization and orderly progress are not dying out in that continent? It is to be hoped and prayed that it will. REAL ESTATE BOARDS TO MEET IN BIG TREE GROVE America's first convention to be held in a grove of California big trees will be that of the National Association of Real Estate Boards when it meets in San Francisco for a five day session beginning May 30. Local realtors point out the fitness of this—the tree, the oldest of living things, and the profession, dealing with the world's oldest commodity. Although the convention is to be actually held in the two million dollar exposition auditorium in San Francisco's civic center, crowds of woodsmen are now engaged in logging picked specimens of California's best sequoia or redwoods, which will be used as the convention hall setting. These trees will be transported by motor truck from the heart of the Santa Cruz mountains, a distance of several hundred miles, to the convention city. They will be grouped around the main hall in such a fashion as to reproduce the famous "cathedral grove" growths of the redwoods in their native haunts. The balcony will be transformed into a reproduction of a mountain side showing the smaller growth of trees in the distance. As the visitors enter the convention hall they will do so through the portals of a reproduction of the Great Wawona. This tree, which stands in the Wawona grove on the outskirts of the Yosemite is a familiar figure to thousands of Americans who have never seen the redwoods, as its photograph showing stages and other vehicles passing through it has been used in countless forms of advertising and publicity work. The speaker's platform will be a reproduction of a great redwood stump banked with wonderful tree ferns for which California's redwood groves are also famous. The picture will be further enhanced by a carpeting of redwood needles on the floor. It is believed that would come from a failure to agree upon a feasible, bonafide plan to foster peace and to promote economic rehabilitation. Prejudice and passion and overwrought fears should be relegated at Genoa. There yet is opportunity to redeem the conference from threatened disruption and disaster.

JAP BIRT Close studythe birth rateCaliforniaans o real reason to startled over The United States, not only out of its material resources, but also by moral example, has done all that any reasonable person could ask toward reconstruction of European and promotion of peace and prosperity throughout the world. In the fact of this record, Sir George Palsh has the insolence to tell the people of the United States that they have refused to aid in the reconstruction of Europe and undertakes to advise them that in order to manifest a co-operating spirit they must enter a conference in Europe chiefly political in its purposes and concerned almost entirely with European problems. No thoughtful American should be misled by the articles he is now disseminating with the aid of Americanapers. AFTER GENOA, WHAT? Shall we ever forget what was waste their time next great war? Be entailed; hunger wo-fine would reign. For Europe busy at peaceful pursuits and at useful production, or undergo dire hardships. Surely the nations participating in seen the redwoods, as its photograph showing stages and other vehicles passing through it has been used in countless forms of advertising and publicity work. The speaker's platform will be a reproduction of a great redwood stump banked with wonderful tree ferns for which California’s redwood groves are also famous. The picture will be further enhanced by a carpeting of redwood needles on the floor. It is believed that the beauty of the picture and the aroma of the sequoia will leave an imperishable memory on the minds of the visiting realtors. The creation of the forest scene is in the hands of the committee on decorations of the San Francisco Real Estate Board with St. George Holden as chairman. The actual direction of the work has been awarded to E. H. Brown, who has won a wide reputation for the production of land shows and similar undertakings. The story of the selection of the trees for this scene is a story in itself. Both Holden and Brown spent several days motoring through the Santa Cruz mountains searching out the best specimens of redwoods to be found. They got into mountain sections where it was even impossible to take a car and were forced to pursue the quest on foot. However, their efforts were finally rewarded by the finding of some finest stands of timber to be found in the Santa Cruz range.

World that older pro-that conti-nd prayed tics. Certain so-called leaders of farm and labor organizations have assembled at Chicago and Washington and without asking the consent of the governed have assumed to pledge the farmers and workingmen to a program fashioned by this limited coterie of politicians. When the self-appointed leadership of this movement, branded as "non-partisan," is examined, it is found that it is entirely composed of Democrats and Socialists. Ne Republican has a look in on this "non-partisan" movement. The truth is that the purpose BLUE AND GRAY TO JOIN On the historic battlefield of Gettysburg, in 1913, on the fifteenth anniversary of that momentous battle, a reunion of union and confederate veterans who participated in that desperate struggle was held and the sentimental thrill which this fraternizing of former foes gave the nation was wholesome. Now it is proposed to repeat this reunion in July, 1923, celebrating the sixtieth anniversary of the battle. Union and confederate survivors alike are eager to meet again on the field which tried their souls so supremely in 1863. There is no phenomenon in the life of this nation during the last half century more striking or more gratifying than the eradicating of animosities engendered by the civil war. The fighting men of the north and the south have led the van in effecting friendly reconciliation and in forgetting the wounds and hatreds of the war period. Interblending in marriage of the younger generation north and south of the Mason and Dixon line has wiped out much of the sectional feeling that once was a curse to the nation. The war with Spain began the section-cementing process and the world war completed it. PROSPERITY ABOUNDS The most favorable and most encouraging industrial report in a long time comes officially from Secretary of Labor Davis. The country rapidly is becoming dotted with white spots, economically, with very few dark spots. Unemployment, the country over, is lessening steadily. The extensive building program in New York and other large cities is helping greatly in this. And "the farm situation is decidedly encouraging," says Secretary Davis. The demand for farm help from all sections of the country is cit-wealth, like buildings and roads) A would require eight men to do the work now done by one. This is the estimate of the celebrated engineering scientist, Alfred Korzybski. He reasons that the world really is populated today by three different populations, all of them dynamic and active. One—1,600,000,000 living men. Two—10,000,000,000 man-powers of the dead. Three—1,600,000,000 sun man-powers. The sun man-power locked up in coal was on earth, ready to be used, thousands of years ago when man produced only by the brute force of his muscles. Today, with this force harnessed, one man can do the work that formerly required many. With each generation, the standard of living advances. And each generation flatters itself that it alone is responsible for the advance. As a matter of fact, most of the advance is a gift from the dead, the accumulation of their efforts and discoveries. Similarly, we of this generation are preparing the standard of living for generations to follow. Man thus operates in an unlimited expanse of time. Human energy and productive effort are immortal. If you don't love humanity in the mass, just because it is humanity, you can never be a writer, poet, painter, preacher, statesman physician or musician, and even though you may think you are one of these everybody but you will know you are not. About this season of the year the tired business man begins to wonder whether the family automobile also is tired. Every lodge contains at least one member whose sole claim to distin- When the self-appointed leadership of this movement, branded as "non-partisan," is examined, it is found that it is entirely composed of Democrats and Socialists. Ne Republican has a look in on this "non-partisan" movement. The truth is that the purpose is to promote the interests of the socialist wing of the Democratic party; the wing that is pledged to government ownership and as much of state socialism in general as it believes it will be possible to force upon the country. Significantly enough it is announced that the campaign of this "non-partisan" organization will be focused in thirteen states. Of these thirteen states twelve are Republican states, and in the thirteenth state, Oklahoma, the Democratic state machine needs help because the leaders of the party, from the governor of the commonwealth on down, are involved in a scandal which makes Republican success in the state election next fall exceedingly probable. The people of this country have a right to look with suspicion upon any "non-partisan" movement controlled entirely by Wilson-McAdoo socialists and near-socialists. As a matter of fact this organization which has undertaken to "deliver" the labor and farmer vote wherever it is believed the interests of the socialist wing of the Democratic party will be best served, is about as non-partisan as Pat Harrison, of Mississippi, or Tom Heflin, of Alabama. It is extremely unfortunate for the labor movement that some of the more important national organizations have seized, so far as their national control is concerned, by politicians masquerading as labor leaders, but functioning as Democratic politicians. These politicians are not going to do the Democratic party much harm, but they are doing all in their power to discredit and destroy the labor movement itself. JAP BIRTH RATE IS HIGH Close study and careful analysis of the birth rate in California shows why Californians of Caucasian blood have real reason to be apprehensive and startled over the possibilities of a discouraging industrial report in a long time comes officially from Secretary of Labor Davis. The country rapidly is becoming dotted with white spots, economically, with very few dark spots. Unemployment, the country over, is lessening steadily. The extensive building program in New York and other large cities is helping greatly in this. And "the farm situation is decidedly encouraging," says Secretary Davis. The demand for farm help from all sections of the country is cited as indicative of the optimistic attitude of the farmer. With better times and a more cheerful outlook for him, the farmer will employ more labor. New York and New England report improved industrial conditions. From the middle west and other sections also come gratifying reports. These are not exaggerated announcements, manufactured to brighten a desperate situation. They are as accurate as it is possible for federal departments to make them. They show unmistakable advancement toward economic no normality. They denote industrial and business recovery on an extensive scale, which gives promise of being prtmanent. GIFTS FROM THE DEAD Suppose you and a friend ran away from civilization and built a log cabin in the woods. After finishing, you'd say: "Well, that's a pretty good job for just the two of us." Then, turning philosophical, you'd add: "Of course, we have to give some credit to the many men, now dead, who invented axes, saws, hammers and nails for us. Without their efforts, the job would have taken us much longer. In effect, the dead men exercised the same influence as if they were here and helped us." Look about you and you'll observe that nearly everything you use in daily life is a gift from the dead. The inventors have passed on. But, through their creations, they continue as active producers. If all traces of former generations were erased (including inventions, short-cut production methods and fixed... JAP BIRTH RATE IS HIGH Close study and careful analysis of the birth rate in California shows why Californians of Caucasian blood have real reason to be apprehensive and startled over the possibilities of a disastrous invasion of non-assimilable orientals. Official figures from the registrar of vital statistics of the state board of health show that the birth rate among Japanese women in California during 1921 was the highest of any year in the history of the state. It is officially estimated that there were 5257 Japanese births during the year or an average of 344 births per 1000 married Japanese women. During 1920 Japanese births in California numbered 4971, an average of 338 to every 1000 married Japanese women. Among the Caucasians, there was an average of 127 birth per 1000 married white women. The birth rate among the Japanese was 68.8 for the year, while the rate among white women was only 19.2. Could anything be more disquietingly convincing than this, as to the actuality of the menace to California and to the whole country? Thinking people of both the United States and Japan perceive the reality of this menace and the appalling consequences which would come from the admission of Japanese to this country in large numbers, and their rapid multiplying, through a birth rate that is away beyond that among the Caucasians. This possible peril should have the most serious attention, at all times, of statesmen and diplomats at Washington and Tokyo.

Los Angeles St. Phone 32-J ANAHEIM KEEPS STRICT GUARD TO BAR SCALY TREES Activities of the county horticultural commissioner's office during the first month of A. A. Brock's administration were outlined in a report made to the board of supervisors, the first such report, it was stated, to be made by an occupant of that office. In his first monthly report, filed with the board Thursday, Brock called particular attention to the necessity for vigilance against importing citrus trees into this county for planting, especially to ward off shipments from districts known to be infested with citrola scale. This scale is not present in Orange county and a careful watch is being maintained by Brock and his deputies to see that it is kept out, if possible. Advent of the scale, Brock states, would double the fumigation expense as the citriola scale would require a separate fumigation at a season of the year when other varieties of scale are not fumigated. The great demand for nursery stock at present among citrus growers of the county, Brock pointed out in his report, has increased the volume of trees being imported from outside districts, hence the necessity for increased vigilance against arrival of diseased stock. With all the men's criticism of women's dress you'd suppose women would criticize men's dress and probably they would if it didn't make them laugh.
