BRISBANE THIS WEEK Childhood Tugwcll's Little Girl Holland Buys Planes Rev. \\ ehber Knows Childhood lasts longer in France than in America and it is real child hood. Boys in their teens writ ing letters, c^ll V their-t sthers Cher pap , as francs exist, when much old- j er than Assistant Secretary Tugwell's intelligent young daughter, Marcia, aged twelve, who. in partnership with her friends, Mary Frances Cottreli and Joyce Helmick, organized "a laundry for washing dogs." They advertised: "Small dogs, JO cents; middle-sized dogs, 35 cents; groomed and washed. Dogs not good-natured must be sent with muzzles, and we cannot, wash large dogs.'' Too bad that parental severity broke up the dog laundry. It had announced working hours TO a. m. to 5 p. m. on Saturdays," the stu- ; dious little girls' only holiday, "all hours after school on other weekdays." What a good example for government enterprises: the little girls really meant to work to "groom and wash" the dogs, not merely stand around and collect the 30 cents. Plucky little Holland and her wise queen seem to have decided that the 1014 "war to end all wars" did not finish its job. Holland went through the big war safely, selling butter, cheese, eggs, not disturbed, not making any bad $10,000,000,000 loans. Now Holland is buying 13 heavy 1 bombing planes in Baltimore, spending $1,500,000 for the 13, and spending many other millions for other killing machinery. That means work and wages in Baltimore; it may mean poison gas arid death for some of Holland's neighbors. Foreign countries read everything said about them in America; not that foreign countries care what Americans think, or attach importance to American opinion, as such; but America has money, raw products, and governments that are sometimes whimsical, changeable and boyish. Europe, Asia and Africa watch with equal interest statements of Americans that count and more niimopnnc uinwi nuiviaaiu luai IlUitV like feathers in the air. One simple - minded Russian pointed with pride to the statement of a clergyman in our Union Theological seminary. That gentleman. Rev. Charles C. Webber, has a plan for a better government, not based on the text about rendering unto Caesar that i which is Caesar's. The big idea is to take away what is Caesar's. Eight hundred young people were told by Reverend Webber: 4'God, who is not content with things as they are, is a revolutionary Being, constantly seeking to make all things new." Rev. Webber, "recognizing this." about God being a revolutionist, has a plan to help God in his efforts; a plan as simple as A, B, C. Capitalism, he says, must be abolished. Rev. Webber wants a planned and planning social economy in the United States. Under the Charles C. Webber plan, people would own and manage such things as industry and property; j no money would be spent for war, and youth would rule. Those brought up with the old- j fashioned idea of God might ask | Rev. Webber, respectfully: "If God really is a revolutionary 'constantly seeking to make all things new,' why does He not carry out His will and 'make all things new' every 1 few minutes? Can it be that He needs the help of Rev. Webber? Lenin and Stalin got along without that help." Also arises this question: With capitalism abolished, who would build the churches, the Union Theological seminaries, and pay salaries to Rev. Webbers for reading the mind of the Divinity?

Their chieftains, however, professed to be confident of ultimate victory. Claude G. Bowers, American ambassador to Spain, was cut of! from communication with the summer quarters of his embassy at San Sebastian for several days, being himself at his summer residence in Fuentarrabia, close to the French border. He finally got in touch with the embassy and removed the stair to his villa. Mr. Bowers also provided safe haven for a number of other foreign diplomats and their families. He said he had ascertained that not a single American had been injured in the civil war. American warships and liners were utilized to evacuate all the Americans in ports where their lives were in danger. Nazi-Polish Quarrel in Danzig Is Ending ACCORDING to announcement ** by a Polish news agency which is generally considered to be the mouthpiece of the Polish Toreign office, an accord has been reached between Berlin and Warsaw on the policies to be followed in the Free City of Danzig.

Vimy Ridge Memorial Unveiled by Edward V.'fDRE than 100.000 persons stood * *' in silence at Vimy, France, as King Edward VIII of England unveiled the magnificent memorial built by France to commemorate the , V heroic capture of Sffi: Vimy Rfdge by the H Canadian forces in Cm Apri1' 1917" After fl greeting President m bebrun of France 9 in French, the king said: "We raise this memorial to Cana?. ... . dian warriors. It is King Edward an lnSplred expression in stone chiseled by a skillful Canadian hand of Panarlo'o to her fallen sons. It marks the scene of feats of arms which history will long remember and Canada can never forget. And the ground it covers is the gift of France to Canada." The dedication culminated ten years of labor and an expenditure of about $1,000,000 on erection of the memorial. The work was completed after earlier delays in construction because of difficulties in finding the- 7,000 to 8,000 tons of special stone required. Walter S. Allward, Toronto architect and sculptor who designed the monument for the Canadian battlefields memorial commission, supervised the preparations for the unveiling.
