The Souls of Oyster?
In the Coffin. He Pavs
PoIIv Has a Tombstone
I Suicide Is Folly
Mr. Kokichi Mikimoto, able Japanese
gentleman, once a peddler of
noodles, is now
j i n ^ g r a ol
j Arthur Itrur ^13 Ot millions
of oysters, and
each oyster proceeds to deposit the
pearly substance on the sand to
escape its irritating scratching.
These pearls are "real." Although
experts can tell the difference.
they annoy jewelers and
have hurt the value of the other
accidental pearls, but they make
it unnecessary for the unfortunate
pearl diver to "go all naked to the
j hungry shark," as the poet has it.
Mr. Mikimoto has been obliged to
j kill hundreds of millions of oysters,
! which is serious: his Buddhist religion
teaches that each has its little
separate soul?in fact, the soul of
his great-grandmother might have
resided in one of the oysters.

and thirty million dollars, chief

the owner, while he lived, paid no
income tax. Now that he is dead,
inheritance taxes will take about
two-thirds of the many millions.
The lack of a "dead-or-alive" taxexempt
securities offers opportunity
to some able lawyer. If the governj
ment has no constitutional right to
take g.ny income from tax-exempt
bonds, how can it legally take half
merely because the owner is in his
coffin?

Shipping Is Crippled
by Maritime Strike
"jp HIRTY-SEVEN thousand maritime
workers on the Pacfic
coast went on strike, and immediately
the trouble spread to the
Gulf and Atlantic
coasts. In the west
about 150 vessels /
were tied up in ports /
and others heading |

voted a "sit down" Bp
strike in defiance of .
their national ofli- Ma>or Kossl
cers, and maritime workers in
Houston and Port Arthur, Texas,
quit their jobs and picketed the
waterfront. Federal officials were
trying hard to settle the disputes
between the unions and shipping
companies, chief of which relate
to control of the hiring halls, wage
increases and shorter hours. Assistant
Secretary of Labor E. F.

intimated the government might intervene.
"When any group, whether bank- i
ers, employers or labor, take action i
endangering the welfare of the nation
they are assuming a position
that the government must challenge
to protect the state and the people,"
McGrady said.
"The free flow of water-borne foreign
and interstate commerce has
become paralyzed. This will involve
directly or indirectly the lives of the
citizens of the whole nation."
San Francisco had the added distress
of a strike of 1,000 warehousemen
who demanded higher wages,
and Mayor Angelo Rossi was mustering
his forces to meet both this ,
trouble and the maritime strike. He
expected violent warfare along the '
waterfront and said he would take
the necessary steps to protect pub- !
lie interests. The police set up head- !
quarters in the Ferry building.
It was reported in San Ftancisco
that coast shipowners were consider- j

Mussolini Says Italy's
Policy Is Armed Peace
"Q UR policy is one of peace with 1
everybody. But it will be
an armed peace." Such was the
flat statement of Premier Mussolini
of Italy in a speech,
at Milan which was
I . IB throughout the

whose superiority in
the Mediterranean II !
Duce boldly
challenged. He appealed
to the British
Premier i0 come to some
Mussolini agreement with
Rome as to Italy's rights and interests
in this area, warning that
failure to do so might mean war.
"If the Mediterranean is for others
a high road," said Mussolini, "for
us Italians it is life. We have said
a thousand times and I repeat we
do not intend to menace this road,
we do not intend to interrupt it.
But we say, on the other hand, our
rights and vital interests must be
respected."
He saw the League of Nations
"shipwrecked by Wilson ideology "
which he asserted was the* philosophy
inspiring "the illusion of disarmament."
"The league must reform or per- !
ish." So far as Italy is concerned
"the league may perish," he asserted.
In London it was said that rec- 1
ognition of Italy's sovereignty over
Ethiopia could come only through
League of Nations procedure so far
as England is concerned. Foreign
office comment was that no matter
what might be the portent of Mussolini's
speech, Britain would not
change her Mediterranean policy.

they would contest the will; and

Madrid Is Bombed by
Insurgent Planes
I> EPEATED raids by rebel bombing
planes were made on Madrid
and its suburbs and scores of
persons, mainly women and children,
were killed. There was fierce
and desperate fighting northeast of
the capital and the government
forces were driven back toward the
city. The defense lines were reorganized,
however, south of Madrid
and on the road to Toledo and the
government commanders were preparing
for a "sweeping new offensive."
The Fascists took Brunete
after a bloody fight, having already
captured three other towns in that
region, and came within seventeen
miles of Madrid.

Sir Samuel at'aed: "On no account
must we interfere in business
which does not concern us. It is
necessary to say that?and say it
most clearly?in view of the very
curious vacillating attitude adopted
by the Labor party toward -he civil
