AROUND EARTH BY AIR IS ACCOMPLISHED With arrival of American army aviators on the mainland of Japan, the whole distance around the earth has been covered by air—not by any one aviator or any single group of aviators, but by cosmopolitan efforts of flyers of several countries. It is pointed out that Americans, Britons and Portuguese have crossed the Atlantic by air. British aviators have covered the distance from England to Singapore. Italians have made flight across Southern Asia and up the China coast to Japan. Japanese and Americans have crossed their own countries. Thus, in piecemeal, the flight around the earth has been accomplished. American aviators are having good success in their successive flights in the Eastern world. They are covering Japan rapidly. They are eager to make good time, now that they are coming into a region where climatic conditions are more favorable. Think in politics. Be forward-looking. 'Act with independence, upon your own convictions. SENATE DELAYS ACTION ON WORLD COURT While the majority of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee has voted favorably upon America's adhesion to the World Court with certain reservations, yet no action is to be taken at this session of Congress. The whole subject is dragged into politics and will be battled about like a tennis ball in the national campaign. This is greatly to be regretted. Decision as to this nation's attitude toward the World Court should be made outside the field of politics. It should be a non-partisan (or bi-partisan) decision. In other words both of the great parties through their WORLD COURT While the majority of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee has voted favorably upon America's adhesion to the World Court with certain reservations, yet no action is to be taken at this session of Congress. The whole subject is dragged into politics and will be batted about like a tennis ball in the national campaign. This is greatly to be regretted. Decision as to this nation's attitude toward the World Court should be made outside the field of politics. It should be a non-partisan (or bi-partisan) decision. In other words, both of the great parties, through their representatives in Congress, the White House and the Cabinet, should collaborate in effectuating a practicable plan for participation of the United States in world-wide activities for fostering of peace by calm, judicial methods. It should not be a political issue—for it does not properly belong in politics. It is a great American issue—better yet, it is a great world issue. Nations should collaborate, as well as domestic political organizations. Perseverance and plodding win, where more acute talent loses because it does not apply itself steadily and consistently. There is nothing which gives one a finer feeling of satisfaction than to be honest and square with the world. It calls a sensitire man to serve the public usefully, with all his energies and talents, and yet go unthanked and unappreciated. After all don't you get just about what you pay for? Careful buying pays! There's no doubt about it!! But no matter how careful you are, PARAGRAPH By ROBERT QUILLLEN Two is company; three is audience. Friends are people who love you in spite of your superior tue. No one candidate can possess enough ignorance to please prejudices. Vice is cheaper than virtue the long run. It never hires press agent. Forecasts of a big rye crop longer cheer anybody except glass blowers. Job's friends were a decent They didn't wait until he was done to do their knocking. Another reason why a chick crosses the street is because knows everybody will use emergency brakes. When an umpire begins dodge bottles, he at least knows how a cabinet member feels. The only germ that really makes dangerous enough to b sporting proposition is her band. Civilization is just a slow buiness of reaching the point when an orator doesn't inspire awe. These beautiful-back contests have their good points, but only kind that thrills us is comeback. A great apple crop is indicat but nobody has yet thought an excuse for raising the price. The subscriber who asks means of the worst libelure. Careful buying pays! There's no doubt about it!! But no matter how careful you are, you can't get Sterling silver at plated-silver prices—and you can't get butter that is dependable in purity and quality at the same price as unknown, undesirable or even "fairly good" brands. Butter is too important a food to "take a chance" on. Be sure of satisfaction—insist upon Golden State! Modern creameries located in the heart of the best dairying districts; careful selection and pasteurization of cream; improved churning and packing methods; strict purity tests; —these are the things that make Golden State, "high score" butter. —these are the things that make it more unan worth the slight premium you have to pay. Isn't it false economy to buy a cheaper brand? Golden State THE HIGH SCORE★ BUTTER The "score" is the expert's gauge of butter quality. It is a fact that Golden State averages from 9 to 10 points higher than other Southern California brands.

"How much do I owe you?" asked the grateful mountaineer. The doctor, knowing the family's poverty, jokingly replied: "Oh, just whatever you can pay." "All right," replied the mountaineer, "the only thing I have is that old cow out there, but she's yours, and I'll bring her in next week." Hatfield was astonished a few days later to see the mountaineer walking up the road leading the cow. "Hello, doc, here's that cow I said I'd give you." He handed the rope to Hatfield and started away. "Hold on!" shouted Hatfield. "Did you walk all the way from the mountains with that cow?" "Sure," was the reply. "Weil," replied Hatfield, fishing into his pockets, "here's $5.. Drive her back home again." A political leader in London gave a dinner party. All sorts of people were there.

Mrs. New Rich spoke up: "I clean my diamonds with ammonia, my rubies with Bordeaux wine, my emeralds in Danzig brandy, my sapphires in fresh milk. And you, dear?"

SAYS NEW SECRETARY "The success of the navy depends today more on efficiency of men and material than at any other time in history." So declared Curtis Wilbur, new secretary of the navy, in a recent discussion of the naval situation in general. "I shall endeavor to bring this about, for we can no longer depend for our protection on our strength or new inventions. All nations have agreed to use certain types of fighting craft and superiority can come only through efficiency and in extreme preparedness. The success of our Republic is due in large part to the preparedness and efficiency and successful operation of its naval force. The navy is the strong arm of the government. "No nation has the right to build a navy for national boasting and glory. The navy exists only for the purpose of national defense and to force the execution of our national policies and our rights among the nation. Efficiency must be the aim of the American Navy today; competitive building programs which produced greater units and more powerful machinery passed away with the Washington conference and the world made an important step toward peace by making war difficult under modern conditions." "I favor at the proper time another conference to further limit the armament of auxiliary ships, but of course the President must decide when the matter should be suggested to the nations which assembled at the Washington conference." Comments of the Press What Editors Are Saying SCIENCE MAKES A VEGETABLE — St. Joseph News-Press Scientific experts are, it is said, about to produce a new vegetable which is the result of combining the tomato and potato. The results of this effort to improve on nature's food supply may be satisfactory or it may not. Until the new vegetable is on the market the experiment will be given the benefit of the doubt—so great is the common faith in science's ability to accomplish things. But the long list of marvels to the credit of scientific effort in the food line, notably those achieved by Burbank and the various combinations for which he is responsible, fail to measure up to those that have a natural affinity for each other. Now, if some scientific shark should evolve such a perfect combination as pork and beans, ham and eggs pastry and cheese, hot biscuit and honey, or corued beef and cabbage! Ah !... However, much as we are accustomed to the marvellous, we fear that such happy unions, such a community of interests, such palate ticklers, such charming food blends would be impossible through the cold, calculating processes of science. Yet, why despair? A working agreement between a potato and tomato may be evolved and it may prove satisfactory. Strange things are happening all the while. THAT DOLLAR BILL IS YOURS — Glendale News The average life of a dollar bill is less than a year, while a $10 bill may last four years, and a $10,000 bill—for painfully obvious reasons—never wears out. For this reason alone, it would be unwise to circulate much gold. Paper bills can be replaced by the government at a cost of about 1.3 cents each, whether they be one denomination or another, but the loss by abrasion of gold in circulation is large. At the present time, some $600 000,000 in gold is theoretically in circulation. Actually it is held in the vaults of banks, paper money being issued in its stead, as bank notes, through arrangement with the federal treasury. What happens to the old bills? They move in a steady stream to the treasury department, where they are destroyed and new bills issued. More than $1,000,000 a day is replaced in this manner. Naturally great reserves of bills must be maintained. In one three-foot-square cabinet in the federal vault is $642,000,000 in paper money. A fortune of a billion dollars could easily be transported in an average trunk. machinery passed away with the Washington conference and the world made an important step toward peace by making war difficult under modern conditions. A favor at the proper time another conference to further limit the armament of auxiliary ships, but of course the President must decide when the matter should be suggested to the nations which assembled at the Washington conference."
