I—-■—--——— TOP O' THE MORNING We may not knoiv just what is meant by atonement, by a vicarious sacrifice, by the suffering that was for us and in our place. But if you have ever tried to change the centre of a selfish life you will find the mys tery of the cross a shade clearer. Rev. Paul Scherer, D.D. FOOLISH QUIBBLING The utterly foolish and stultifying fight over census questions pertaining to income continues, with President Roosevelt confined to his quarters by a cold and Senator Tobey rusticating on his New Hampshire *farm. Senator Tobey has contended that the ques tions invade the privacy of the citizen and should not be answered. Through his secre tary, Stephen Early, the President replies that for the first time in his knowledge a United States senator openly advisee the American people to violate the law, and holds himself out as the one person who will not answer the income questions, when he knows full well that in his case the answer wrill be unnecessary since the enumerator would know the senator earns more than $5,000.” The wrangle Is all so unnecessary it is dif ficult to account for it, except that the cen sus is being taken in an election year and the opposition is seizing every opportunity to discredit the administration. The fact is that the questions at the root of the quarrel were recommended in large measure by re publican business leaders who saw in the answers valuable and helpful information in their pursuit of greater trade. However hotly the matter is disputed in high places—and there is no indication it will cool down at once—the fact remains that Sen ator Tobey has thrown a monkey wrench into the machinery of the census which is causing needless delay and promises to defeat the very purpose of the census as a fact-gather ing and fact-dispensing agent for the benefit of the people at large, and of business in particular. As it has been carefully and repeatedly ex plained that the data assembled by the census bureau is not available in its separate items to any person or organization, but only in the aggregate, the Tobey outcry is obviously for the sole purpose of obstruction, with the aim of bringing discredit to the new deal. In any year except when an election is to be held, the New Hampshire senator doubtless would be as silent on this as on most other public matter*. A TRAGIC LESSON THE apartment house fire in Charlotte in which eight died and several others were gravely injured, offers a shocking example of the price cities pay for inadequate fire pre vention. This building in which many families made their homes was no exception to the type of dwelling places allowed to exist in most American municipalities. On the contrary, it is duplicated, as to fire risks, almost every where. Because of the original cost and the great expense of replacing them with safe build ings, as free from hazards of fire as engineer ing skill and good workmanship can make them, in combination with materials most im pervious to flames, it is the regretable cus tom of authorities to let them linger on as a definite menace to mortal life. Charlotte probably has learned its lesson It is likely that the authorities will be zeal ous henceforth in enforcing all fire regula tions in apartments, hotels and business buildings. They even may go so far as to condemn some, and require their demolition, as imperiling public safety. If they do, the tragedy at the Guthery, ter rible as it was, will have served a purpose. If it also rouses fire departments in other North Carolina cities to make extraordinary inspections and enforce ordinances against fire hazards, it will be doubly helpful. Wilmington has been exceptionally fortun ate in its fire record, partly because it lacks any number of apartment houses, but more particularly because its fire department is above par in efficiency^. But this does not mean that Wilmington is immune. It has many fire traps, and all buildings have not been adequately protected against spread of flames. , An example of this was. found when flames broke out in a Princess street cafe recently. Firemen were at a disadvantage from the start. Inside stairways were blocked by trash; upstairs rooms were piled high and obstruc tively with discarded stuff. That the flames were speedily subdued was due wholly to the training and experience of the firemen. Next time the flames may get too great a start before discovery, and the firemen may be impotent to put them out be cause of the blockaded approach. That Princess street episode, coupled with the Charlotte fire, points the need of strict est enforcement of regulations here, to save Wilmington from a disastrous fire. GOOD WORK, SCRIBBLERS! We are favored with a copy of the Scrib blers’ Magazine, periodical published by the Scribblers’ club of New Hanover high school, a group of students interested in pursuing as an extra-curricula activity the study of writ ing. It is unusual to find in so youthful a group such ability. Whereas many of the items might not be of sufficient merit to secure publication in national periodicals, they all show an understanding of the knack of writ ing and an ability to handle the English lan guage simply and forcefully. Not all of the items are fictional or abstract nor is the poetry merely rhyme and jingle without real thought. At random, we pick two selections, both verse, as proof the students in the club are learning that all-important factor of being able to transmit their thoughts to paper: A WATER SPOUT As angry sea touched molten sky While crazy waves dashed in and out, Some frothing sea was whisked on high, And there became a water spout. Gibbs Holmes, Sophomore * * * RIDING ’ROUND THE HOOVER ROAD There are many spots in Wilmington Where youngsters like to roam In summer time and winter time. Some spots away from home. There's swimming in the summer time, Out in our Greenfield Lake; There's skating, fishing, rowing—ah— And scouting jaunts to take. But when these sports are tiring And worries press my mind, I grab, my bike and head it south To leave these cares behind. The broad roads stretch before me; My heart is light and free; I see the Lake of Greenfield Beside me as 1 flee. From daily repetition Of a hot and sultry day, From stuffy rooms in winter time Out to the open way. No sound save the birdies, So restful, calm, and still— I I see the work of nature On every little hill. 1 peddle softly—gliding— I breathe the clean, pure air And circle ’round the Hoover Road: Five miles of freedom rare I Thelma Mintz, Sophomore POLES INDICT GERMANY In a White Book Issued by the Poltsh gov ernment In exile at Paris, claim is made that Poland was sacrificed because she refused to Join Germany in a campaign against Russia. A copyrighted'article in the New York Her ald Tribune, by Beach Conger of that news paper’s Paris bureau, says Herr Goeeino was the Nazi leader who promoted a German-Pol ish campaign against Russia, according to the documents published in the White Book, % He adds that the book contains a memoran dum by Count Jan Szembek, Polish secretary of state for foreign affairs, concerning a talk between Goering and the late Marshal Pil sudski, on February 16, 1935, as follows: In hie interview with the Marshal, Herr Goering brought up the Russian military problem. At this time, he sug gested a common Polish-German march against Russia and represented the ad vantages which Poland could obtain in Ukrania from such action. The Polish White Book, following the Brit ish Blue Book, the French Yelloiv Book and the German White Book, stresses the prom ises made by Hitler to respect the Polish frontier and the statutes governing the Free State of Danzig. Beyond confirming an almost universal conviction that Hitler couldn’t tell the truth in any circumstances, it is not apparent what good purpose the White Book can serve. Yet, it afforded the exiled Polish government op portunity to get a load off its chest, and so is to be counted worth while. I ' I WASHINGTON DAYBOOK By JACK STINNETT WASHINGTON, March 17.—The Long ma chine in Louisiana has met the fate of the one-hoss shay but visitors to Washington’s Statuary Hall in years to come may find Lou isiana’s most honored son is the late Huey Long. , Whether they do or don’t is up to Governor Earl Long, Huey’s brother and the man who was at the wheel when the machine went into the ditch. Back in 1864, when the Civil war was grind ing out heroes at a dizzy pace, congress decid ed to take the matter in hand. It passed a law. The law said each state could have two nice pedestals in Statuary Hall, to support the stat ues of the deceased heroes that state considered worthy of such honor. When Louisiana got back in the union fold, it paid no attention to the law. But in 1938, the state legislature found a hero to their liking and put up $15,000 for a statue of the assassi nated ’’Kingfish.” .After that gesture, they did nothing about withdrawing the money from the treasury and the appropriation will go back to the sta^e for something else if it isn’t withdrawn before July, 1941. • « • Governor Long hasn’t that much time. His official sun sets May 14, when he goes out of office. If he acts before then, the name and figure of Huey Long will be perpetuated along with such heroes as Samuel Adams, ' Henry Clay, Jeff Davis, Daniel Webster, Sam Houston, Robert Fulton and John C. Calhoun, in one of the nation’s most distinguished halls of fame. Both in Washington and Louisiana, the state officials asked about it, wouldn’t say yea and wouldn’t say nay, and the new administration hasn’t even hinted what they’ll do if Governor Long doesn’t choose to put brother Huey in the Capitol. It would hardly seem right, though, to expect the new anti-Long administration to honor the man who sewed up Louisiana poli tics in his own little sack and for so many years refused them even one little peek. • * • There Is, by the by, hardly any better way for a state to memorialize one of its distin guished sons than by putting him up in marble or bronze in Statuary Hall. Even when the deeds of the dead hero are forgotten and his name stirs only a vague recollection, there are the Capitol guides to jog the memory of older visitors to Washington and tell new genera tions how these men reached their pedestals in this hall of the mighty. They have to do little explaining, of course, about Washington or Garfield or Andrew Jack son or Ethan Allen or Robert E. Lee or Roger Williams. They’re all well remembered in the history books. But here Georgia has wisely written a permanent record for Dr. Crawford William Long, whose ^ pioneering with ether anaesthesia in 1842 gave him a high place in the nation’s medical history. And Kentucky has honored Ephraim McDowell, another distin guished physician, who performed the first ovariotomy—the operation that annually saves thousands of women's lives—in 1809 and almost lost his life at the hands of a mob because of it. • * * There are in all 72 statues from 38 states. Statuary Hall reached its population peak in 1933. Guess that 1864 congress never figured there would be anything like 48 states, so the boys in '33 had to straighten them out, to keep from chipping the elbows of the crowding greats. Now each states gets only one pedestal in Statuary Hall and one in other prominent corridors and vestibules or in the rotunda. What I wanted to know and couldn't find out is what’s the matter with those other ten states? Haven’t they any famous sons? Or can’t the folks get together on who deserves such an honor? Or are they broke? Idaho, Arizona, Minnesota and South Dakota have taken only one spot each. The states that haven’t scratched the surface yet are Colorado, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oregon, Utah, Washington and Wyoming. If any of them has even made a recent gesture toward putting a Capitol halo over the mem ory of one of their heroes, David Lynn, Capitol architect, hasn’t heard of it: Maybe the mamas and papas out there are waiting for junior to grow up and be President. | QUOTATIONS A new society, stronger and better in every way, should come to replace our present civili zation.

Manhattan ' By George Tucker' NEW YORK, March 17. — For * guy who has a burning thirst for size and who thinks of living space in terms of warehouses and regi mental armories, Billy Rose has shown considerable restraint in choosing a home for his bride. It is a modest 14-room chateau built entirely of imported Dutch brick, and is located at No. 33 Beekman place over on the East river. The little Midas picked it for a mere $140,000 cash, and while it isn't what he originally had in mind, it is, as he says, at least a roof over their heads. For a while he thought of taking a 40-room "lodge” he found on a mountain top near Tarrytown, N. Y„ but decided against it when someone pointed out how far Tarry town was from Lindy’s. “We shouldn’t go running off to the country anyway,” the master says philosophically. “It would get so lonesome out there Eleanor and I might throw each other off a cliff.” * * * This new house, from the Rose point of view, has only one defect. When he strolls to the broad bay windows and throws aside the cur tains he finds that Billy Leed’s yacht, which ties up there, ruins his view of the lovely muddy wa ters of the river. But for those who can discipline themselves away from river-vistas, there are compensating distractions. Rose has turned No. 33 Beekman Place into a sort of personal mu seum of art masterpieces and for a man who makes his money out of tigers and elephants the taste is ex emplary. He has a fine 18th century can vas by Sir Joshua Reynolds, and at least four excellent studies by the old Flemish masters, one of wh(,ch is a knight by Van Dyke. There are also paintings by Derain, the modern French painter, and one by Puga, a pupil of the Spaniard Valesquez. There is, finally, a por traiture oddity by Modigliani, a study of Jean Cocteau, the French actor-writer-prodycer, and it is a face of such frightening aspect that when Eleanor Holm saw it she burst into tears and said she ^ould not stay in the same house with it. Only by swearing to hide it in his own private room was Billy able to placate her- After seeing the por trait, one has the hunch that maybe the logic was all on Eleanor’s side. Modigliani’s Cocteau is a weird thing with cross eyes and a neck like a swan. ine house itself blossoms around a magnificent Adams spiraling stair way. The dining room is in English paneling, with an open fire and mantel effects in porcelain and jade which came from Italy and Hjg» dustan. John Murray Anderson, who produces all of Billy’s extrava ganzas, including his new Aquacade, which will open this year on May 11, was stunned by it. “None of your friends will fit in here, Billy," he warned, "unless you give them powdered wigs and satin britches." Billy’s own room, compared to the lavish guest rooms, and Mrs. Rose's private boudoir, is a mere monk's cell. Besides a desk in the French Empire style, a bed, and the portrait of Cocteau there is nothing. Those guest beds, by the way, are only 13 inches high, but any of them would sleep the Marx Bros- and Primo Camera. In sum, life on the East river may not be as exciting as Mark Twain pictured it on the Mississippi, but it is a darned sight more comfortable. How would you like to live in .a house where you could wake up every morning, stick your foot out from under the covers and nudge a Rembrandt with your big toe?

BEATTY AP Feature Service Writer WASHINGTON, March 17.—The Russo-Finnish peace treaty is fur ther evidence that the important war game these days is ‘.‘Neutrals! Neutrals! Who's got .the neutrals?" Not just one neutral. All the neu trals. Particularly all the important neutrals. Glance back to the beginning of this war. The Germans allowed war to overtake them ONLY after they had forged a ring of neutral states around the Reich. Beginning at the north, and turn ing clockwise, Hitler last Septem ber could gaze with inward satis faction on neutral Scandinavia, the Baltics. Russia, the Balkans, Tur key, Italy, Switzerland, and the low countries. That left the Germans with but one hole to plug—a 150-mile gap hard against the French border. They plugged it with the West wall. # * * Allies’ Problem Tougher The Allies had no such simple, concentrated problem. Theirs was a beseiging action, requiring a hydra headed offensive. For it was they who declared the war. The four main points of their offensive war were these: 1. They manned the Maginot line, stalemating the Germans there. 2. They established a blockade around Germany where possible, denying both entree and egress of supplies and trade on the west and south. 3. They encouraged and deliber ately planted propaganda within Germany to foster internal disinte gration. 4. They wooed the buffer neutral states with all the ardor of a love sick young swain. The headlines have been telling you a lot about .this Allied offen sive. Also they have NOT been tell ing you a lot more. They have told you about the propaganda leaflet:: iropped in Germany from Allied war jlanes. They have not told you ibout Allied espionage work in Ger nany. The headlines have shown you low the Allies bought off Turkey vith nearly $200,000,000 worth of oans, and guarantees against at ack. They have related the ways he British buyers in the Balkans lave been outbidding Germany for 3alkan oil and grain. The headlines have indicate1 dearly that the British blockaders it Gibraltar have favored the Ital ans right along. Despite a disagree nent about coal, the British are ‘bout to talk over a trade agree nent with Mussolini. You have also wen how the British and French lave sympathized with the Pope in lis peace efforts while the Nazis, mtil recently, didn’t give the Cath ilic church much room- You’ve even lad evidence that the British are lot ready to declare war against tussia, Germany’s friend in the ast. * * • Allies Tread Quietly What’s more important, the M. ies have refrained from taking vio mt steps to cut off Swedish ore nd Rumanian and Russian oil from Germany. Why? Because that means running roughshod over the very neutrals they’re wooing. With the neutrals as jittery as they are these days, cave man tactics inspire terror within their breasts, not tender response. With Germany across the street, what would Sweden do, if the Allies deliberately forced their way through the Swedish countryside with troops to help Finland? Swed en would have to fight the British or expect a counter attack from Germany. Sweden would then be come a bloody battleground. What would Turkey do, if the British deliberately tried to get their warships into Ihe Black sea to cut off Russian oil supplies, with out so much as a "by your leave?’’ Turkey would have to resist, to keep from becoming a battleground before she wanted to. Moscow and Peace Allied tacticians and diplomats ire smarter than that. They’re tell ing the neutrals that the Allies are fighting for the independence of European states, as well as their 3wn skins. And they’re trying to prove it, by not violently forcing the hands of a single neutral. That’s :he way to win the neutrals in the ong run. The German high command has lot been unmindful of French-Brit sh tactics. Hitler has moved Gjd up a peg or two in his public ad lresses, and demoted the pronoun [• He s taken a daily slap in the ..ice from the Catholic church over the Vatican radio, and sent Von Ribbentrop to Vatican City to reply with kind words. Apparently Germany put pressure )n Russia to leave some sort of in iependent state in Finland.

Why’s got the neutrals?’’ At the moment the struggle for neutrals is still a stalemate. Sweden, Russia, some of the Bal kans, and maybe Italy are still "sympathetic” with Germany, for their own reasons. Rumania, Tur key, and some of the Balkans face the other way, for their own reas ons. xl is Lrue mat peace in uie can do the Allies no good whatso ever. For it can release Germany and Russia from that diverting struggle and permit them to carry out their economic barter arrange ments. But there’s little the Allies fan do about it now except make ges tures. For their game with the n-u trals is not a short-term affair. 1' is only beginning. Ultimately the aim of the Allies is to get the neutrals on their side, and fighting in the front lines H around the German circle—fighting enthusiastically, and with the bol stering morale of Franco-British aid. But it is doubtful that the Britich and French Allies are yet ready to scatter their own manpower ail around the German circle, instead of concentrating on the Maginot line.
