Hoover’s Extensive Program
for Waterways—Golden
Jubilee of Light.
By EDWARD W. PICKARD
PRESIDENT HOOVER has definitely
taken his position as champion of
the development of our inland water
ways and set forth the policy of his
administration in that connection. In
an address at Louisville, made during
his trip down the Ohio in the celebra
tion of that river’s canalization, the
■Chief Executive proposed a program
that would call for the expenditure
in the next ten years of approximately
■one billion dollars for the inland wa
terways projects. He would complete
the canalizatibn of the Mississippi sys
tem of 9,000 miles within five years
at an annual outlay of $10,000,000 over
the present appropriation, and would
be ready to spend as much more on
the St. Lawrence project.
The chief points of the President’s
program are thus summarized:
The federal government should not
■only retire from the operation of
ocean shipping, but from the operation
of barges and craft on these rivers
after the period of pioneering.
Completion of the entire Mississippi
basin system of waterway in five
years.
The 746 miles of intercoastal canals
should be lengthened by 1,000 miles
■during the next ten years.
The great lakes channels should be
further improved and the lake levels
stabilized.
This Mississippi flood control project
to be expedited and finished in ten
years.
Harbors and their littoral water
ways to be maintained and deepened
to accommodate the expanding foreign
■commerce.
When it came' to the matter of pro
viding the needed funds, Mr. Hoover
adopted the idea of beating our swords
into ploughshares. He expressed the
hope that the great increase in ex
penditures involved would be bal
anced by reduction in the expendi
tures for the -instruments of war as
the result of the present international
negotiations for naval limitation.
Mr. Hoover’s first participation in
the Ohio river celebration was at
Cincinnati where, in Eden park he
helped dedicate a monument to the
men who started the canalization work
34 years ago and, as an engineer, gave
high praise to the way in which the
project had been carried out. He
and his party then took a stormy ride
to Louisville on the old lighthouse
tender Green Brier, stopping briefly
at Madison, Ind. Patrol boats, yachts
and other passenger boats carrying
members of the Ohio Valley Improve
ment association and officials from
several states trailed in the wake of
the Green Brier, making a flotilla of
16 vessels.
As the President’s train was re
turning to Washington some persons
■discovered near Albany, Ind., an
automobile placed across the rails.
It was supposed an attempt had been
made to wreck the train, and indeed
that might have been the result; but
two negroes who were arrested said
they had put the car on the track
in hope of collecting damages for its
■destruction.
LIGHT’S golden jubilee, the fiftieth
anniversary of the creation of the
Incandescent electric lamp by Thomas
A. Edison, was celebrated more or
less all over the world but centered
in the transplanted early American
village, Greenfield, built near Detroit
by Henry Ford. There were gathered
President and Mrs. Hoover, Secretary
of War lood and other government
notables, Mme. Curie of France, co
discoverer of radium, and a host of
other important people to do honor
to the “Wizard” and his achievements.
Bowed by his eighty-two years and
almost overcome by emotion, Mr. Edi-,
son, in his rebuilt old original labora
tory, repeated his final test of the
first successful incandescent light, and
then at a banquet heard what his
fellow citizens and the world generally
thinks of him and his inventions. Con
gratulatory messages from the prince
of Wales, President Hindenburg of
Germany and others were read; Owen
D. Young as toastmaster was eloquent,
and President Hoover revealed a de
lightful vein of humor as well as a
deep appreciation of what Mr. Edi
son has done for humanity. Espe
cially did he give the inventor credit
for the way he has demonstrated the
value of the modern method and sys
tem of invention by highly equipped,
definitely organized laboratory re
search. Henry Ford and his son Ed
sel, the hosts of the occasion, de
clined to speak. Mr. Edison himself,
in broken tones, thanked the Ameri
can people for the tribute paid him
and gave credit for a full measure of
his successes to his fellow workers
and the great thinkers of the past.
The celebration at Greenfield was
supplemented by the dedication of the
Edison Institute of Technology which
Mr. Ford has created as his concrete
tribute to his friend, the “Wizard of
Menlo Park.”

industry.
Addressing the sixth conference of
major industries in Chicago, Mr.
Legge warmly advocated an economic
parity between industry and agricul
ture as the only way to check the in
crease of radicalism in America.
“The public can rest assured,” Mr.
Legge said, “that the American farm
er will never be reduced to peasantry,
but unless he gets help, - and gets it
quickly, drastic results may be ex
pected. You can’t blame the farmers
for backing radical blocs. Those
blocs represent distress at home. If
we remove the distress we remove
the radicalism. If we don’t we’ll
see radicalism in the future that is
going to be worse than that we’ve had
in the past.”
DEMOCIVA.TS and radical Repub
licans of the senate, striving at
least ostensibly to make the tariff bill
more favorable to the farmer, began
their fight against' the schedules of
rates. Their success was variable,
and the hottest parts of the battle are
yet to come. The debates were so
long drawn out that there were re
newed fears that the measure would
fail of enactment in the special ses
sion.
Herbert C. Lakin of New York,
president of the Cuba company, was
an interesting witness before the sen
ate committee investigating lobbying.
He said that American interests with
Cuban sugar investments had thus
far spent $75,000 in lobbying against
an increased duty on sugar, and that
propaganda headquarters have been
maintained in Washington at a cost
of $24,000 to date. Mr. Lakin in
sisted that he and those he represents
do not desire to injure the domestic
beet sugar industry and have tried
to work out a scheme that would be
equitable to all groups. Replying to
Senator Caraway’s questions, the sugar
man said he believed his -interests
would have been unsafe if he hadn’t
employed persons to represent him in
Washington.
Aristide briand, premier of
France, and his cabinet stepped
out of office last week because the
chamber of deputies, by a vote of 288
to 277, refused Its confidence in
Briand’s foreign policy. Briand, who
has been premier 13 times and is in
poor health, announced positively that
he would not accept the task of form
ing another government. When par
liament opened Briand demanded that
debate on his foreign policy be post
poned until after he had conferred
with allied governments, until the con
ference at The Hague had been re
sumed for final action on the interna
tional bank, and until after final re-

partition of German reparations. This
the chamber refused, deputies of all
parties joining in the opposition vote.
Dislike of the Young reparations plan
and of the contingent evacuation of the
Rhineland was strongly evinced by the
right wing, which was surprised by
the fall of the government. The left
wing leaders said they really were
strongly in favor of the Young plan
and the evacuation program. Eduard
Daladier, Radical Socialist, was
picked to form a new cabinet.
BECAUSE a Slovene student was
executed in Pola, Italy, there were
violent anti-Italian riots in Belgrade
and other cities of Yugo-Slavia, and
the Italian representatives in that
country were threatened and insulted.
Consequently Mussolini, through Min
ister Carlo Galli, made indignant re
monstrance, demanding immediate In
vestigation and the cessation of the
press campaign against the Mussolini
policies.
CROWN PRINCE HUMBERT of
Italy arrived in Brussels to ask
officially for the hand of Princess
Marie-Jose of Belgium, and when the
king and queen gave their consent the
engagement was formally announced.
The consent of the king and queen of
Italy was published at the same time.
Prince Humbert next day went to

with the ceremony.
CIVIL war in Afghanistan apparently
is ended for the present, for news
comes that Bacha Sakao, the deposed
king, and 1,000 of his followers have
surrendered to Nadir Khan, the new
ruler, stipulating only that their lives
be spared. Amanullah, the former king,
has sent his warm congratulations to
Nadir.
Destruction, by explosion and
fire, of the Hollywood laborato
ries of the Consolidated Film industries
caused a loss of millions of dollars —
nothing like an exact estimate being
possible for some time. The place was
used by about 75 per cent of the mo
tion picture producers and included in
the losses were a number of master
films of new screen productions. Fifty
persons were in the building at the
time and all escaped unhurt except
Albert Lund, who was taken out un
conscious and died.
URBAN F. DITEMAN, JR., Montana
cattleman and amateur aviator,
started a surprise hop from Harbor
Grace, Newfoundland, for London, and
presumably was lost in the Atlantic,
though there was a remote chanee
that he landed somewhere in Green
land.
Dox, the huge German Dornier sea
plane, made a successful flight over
Lake Constance carrying 169 persons;
these included 150 passengers, nine
stowaways and ten members of the
crew. The big ship rose rapidly and
for nearly an hour flew at an average
speed of 106 miles an hour, though it
is capable of 138 miles. Italy, Japan
and Spain immediately put in orders
for planes of the same type.
SEVEN of the Communist labor lead
ers who were tried in Charlotte,
N. C., for the killing of Police Chief
Aderholt of Gastonia during the strike
troubles, were found guilty of second
degree murder and sentenced to prison
for terms ranging from five to twenty
years. Several of the convicted men
were from New York; others were na
tive products.
FIERCE raids by the bears brought
on the wildest scenes the New
York stock exchange has ever known,
and prices of stocks crashed down to
such low levels that billions of paper
profits were wiped out. Trading was
utterly demoralized as the brokers
fought to execute their orders, and the
ticker was nearly two hours behind
with the quotations. The excitement
was repeated only in lesser degree in
the curb market and in Chicago and
other exchanges. No explanation of
the great crash was satisfactory, at
least to the losers. The bulls strug
gled hard to keep their footing, with
some success later.

IC—Our Share in Promoting Interna

The lesson title is somewhat mis
leading. It is not world peace through
mutual understanding, but through
the actual coming of Jesus Christ, the
Messiah, and the establishment of His
kingdom on the earth.
I. Messiah’s Kingdom Established
(Isa. 2:2-4).
By “mountain” in the Scriptures is
meant a kingdom (Dan. 2:35, Rev.
13:1, 17:9-11).
1. Its position (v. 2).
It shall be in a place of supremacy.
The kingdoms of the world shall then
become the kingdom-of Christ (Rev.
11:15).
2. The restored kingdom the teach
er of the gentiles (v. 3).
God called Israel and made her the
priestly nation in order that she might
make known His name among other
nations. Now, after many centuries
of apostasy and rebellion, the chosen
nation comes Into its own. God’s fa
vor will be so outstanding as to gain
the attention of the whole world.
3. The Divine Judge (v. 4).
The problems of the world which
are so beyond man’s capacity to solve
will be adjudicated by the One who
is all wise, and He shall then rebuke
many people. Because of this rebuke,
they shall convert their implements of
war into Implements of husbandry,
and shall learn war no more.
11. Description of His Reign (Isa.
11:6-10).
Universal peace between men and
animals will prevail. In this picture
each animal Is coupled with that one
upon which It naturally preys.
fatnn^halHl^owntogetner^
4. A little child shall lead them.
5. The cow and bear shall feed to
gether.
6. The lion shall eat straw like the
ox.
7. The sucking child shall play
upon the hole of the asp.
8. The weaned child shall put its
hand upon the den of the cockatrice.
The coming of Christ will have a re
generating effect upon the whole crea
tion. The only peace for the earth
will be when Jesus Christ, the Prince
of Peace, shall reign.
111. Peace Among the Nations by
Means of the Knowledge of God (Acts
17:22-28).
The way to bring peace among the
nations is to make God known. Paul
began his discourse on Mars’ hill by
referring to one of their inscriptions,
“To the unknown God,” and declared
that it,was his purpose to make known
this God unto them. By using this as
his point of contact he made declara
tions about God and man which if
recognized will tend to the unity of
the nations.
1. Declaration concerning God (w.
24, 25).
(1) The Creator of the universe.
(2) Lord of heaven and earth. Being
essentially spirit, He demands heart
worship, and being Creator He cannot
be confined to an earthly temple.
(3) His active providence. He de
clared that in Him we live and move
and have our being.
2. Declaration concerning man (w.
26-31).
(1) We are the offspring of God
(v. 28). (2) Nations have their place
by God’s'purpose. (3) Men should
seek God. The truth thus declared
concerning God and man, if received,
■will remove national and racial bar
riers.
IV. The Basis of National Union
(John 4:20, 21).
The coming union of nations will not
be in forms or symbols, but in spirit.
The union of the race must be around
Jesus Christ. Being united to Him as
head, men are brought into fellowship
with God. The Christian church is
the supreme unifier of nations (Eph.
4:3-6). If we would hasten world
peace, let us with diligence and en
thusiasm endeavor to induce men to
give allegiance to Jesus Christ.
The Cheerful Heart
God delights in nothing more than
in a cheerful heart, careful to per
form him service. What parent Is it
that rejoiceth not to see his child
pleasant, in the limits of a filial duty?
—Owen Felltham, in Resolves.
The Bible
The English Bible —a book which, If
everything else in our language should
perish, would alone suffice to show the
whole extent of its bep“t» anq, power.

Remember Bayer Aspirin! For
there is scarcely any pain it cannot

These tablets give real relief, or
millions would not continue to take
them. They are quite harmless, or
the medical profession would not
constantly prescribe them.
Don’t be a martyr to unnecessary
pain. To colds that might so
easily be checked; to neuritis, neu

Bayer Aspirin is such an effective
antidote.

For your own protection, buy the
genuine. Bayer is safe. It’s always
the same. It never depresses the
heart, so use it as often as needed;
but the cause of any pain can be
treated only by a doctor.
