BRISBANE THIS WEEK 160,000 Hones A New Democracy Thin Mm Live Longer Must We Have War? The well advertised Queen Mary, looking very big moving up to her New York dock, repreI tented in reality the quintessence of compressed power. On the way over she developed one hundred and sixty thousand horse power. That number of horses hitched in pairs, one ahead of the other, would make a ‘team" more than two hundred and fifty miles long. Still mtwe rema r k a b 1 e power compression is that of the flying engine, which compresses the power of a I.O(XV pound horse into less than three pounds of metal. The government offered for sale six hundred millions of 2% per cent bonds, four hundred millions of 1% per cent notea. The whole issue is oversubscribed. , It is a comfort for those that have money and want no risk to Invest even *t low interest rates, free of income tax payment*. Such an Investment is much simple** than running the risk of a business enterprise with pay roll* and jobs attgyhed. To tax heavily the man who uses his money and brains to give work to others, and free from taxation thosethat buy bonds and take their ease, is a brand-new kind of democracy. Men of middle age and older may learn from Civil war veterans In the Memorial day parade, some ninety and some ninety-three; one, who led New York city’s G. A. R. procession, past ninety-six years of flge. All the old soldiers are- very thin men, averaging in weight less than 140 pounds. Bad they been fat they would be in the grave, not in any parade. General Pershing cut a big birthday cake with a general’s sword, Mr*. Roosevelt looking on. and on Memorial day he warned America against another war. To believe that this country can be dragged into a war without a repetition of our big war folly Is not complimentary to those in charge. No foreign nation would force war on the United States, and thus put United States resources, and any fighting qualities that Americans may possess, on the aide of that foreign nation's enemies. The unfortunate congressman. Elon check, from the Northwest, la locked up in Washington, his sanity to be tn-v.-st(gated, after he visited the White House with a present of empty beer bottles for the President. The unfortunate congressman's antics are not important in themselves, but you wonder what qualities were seen in him by the voters, The United States Supreme court declared unconstitutional a New York state law that would permit New York to fix a minimum wage for women and children. Chief Justice Hughes, who did Mt agree with the nx»Jority opinion, wrote: "J find nothing in the federal Constitution which denies to the state the power to protect women from being exploited by over-reaching employers.'* Alfred P. Sloan, Jr n who ought to know about American Industry, says enormous building operations are needed In the United States to replace out-of-dare equipment, and that the. door is wide open for “plenty of jobs and then more jobs.” American cotton growers fighting the boll weevil will sympathise with Argentine growers, attacked by vast swarms o of devouring locusts, far worse than any weevil. The Argentine ministry ® of agriculture announces 10.000 tons of cotton devoured, 00,000 acres invaded. Farmers fight the locusts by erecting wall* of sheet iron or digging ditches, into which the locusts swarm, to be . sprayed with gasoline and burned. Tons of the pests are thus destroyed. Mayors of Arab cities In Palestine warn the British that they must stop Jewish immigration and the sale of land to Jew* in Palestine. The British answer to the warning will probably not be satisfactory to the Arabs. It to reported also that the central committee for Palestine of the “Communist party" to distributing literature urging British soldiers in Palestine to mutiny.

Sudden Death of Speaker Byrns—Rome Hails Badoglio . .While London Cheers Haile Selassie—Rural y » Housewives of World Convene.

By EDWARD W. PICKARD’ J* WMtara Newapepw Vaios.

rhEATH. sudden and unexpected, U came to Joseph Wellington Byrns, speaker of the bouse of. representatives, and put an end to a notable career. The veteran Ten-

nessee congressman I suffered a heart at- I tack, followed by a I cerebral hemorrhage, I and passed away with- I in a few hours in his I apartment In the May- I flower hotel. Washing- I ton. For 27 years Mr. I Byrns had represented I the "Hermitage dis- | trict” of Tennessee in

the house, and he was J ’ W ‘ Byrna elected speaker when the Seventyfourth congress convened In January. 1935. He was a master of parliamentary strategy and so fair-minded a presiding officer that all, even his political opponents, praised and admired him. Before becoming speaker he served long years on the appropriations committee, as member and chairman. and he also was leader of the Democratic majority and chairman of the Democratic congressional campaign committee. Grief for Mr. Byrns’ death was general and sincere in Washington officialdom. “I am shocked beyond all imagination." said Representative Bertrand 11. Snell of New York, the minority leader. "It to a terrible thing. It is an almost irreparable loss.” Senator Joseph T. Robinson of Arkansas, the majority leader, after expressing hls own sense of loss, added: "His work during the session has been very difficult and trying. He was a great speaker.” President Roosevelt tn a statement from the White House expressed well the high esteem In which Mr. Byrns wa? held. Said be: “Fearless, incorruptible,, unselfish with a high sense of justice, wise in counsel, broad of vision, calm in adversity, and modest in victory, he served his state and the nation with fidelity, honor, and great usefulness. 1 personally mourn the passing of a steadfast friend of many years.” Impressive funeral services were held in the chamber of the house, the President. members of the cabinet and numerous diplomats being present tn addition to all members of congress. The body was then taken to Nashville, Tenn., for burial, and Mr. Roosevelt accompanied the special congressional committee there. The house elected William B. Bankhead of Alabama speaker for the remainder of the session. The death of Speaker Byrns followed closely that of another well-known congressman. A. Piatt Andrew of Massachusetts, a Republican. He died of Influenza at hls home in Gloucester at the age of sixty-three. Mr. Andrew, who taught economics at Harvard more than thirty years ago, was director of the mint for a few months under President Taft and then was assistant secretary of the treasury. He was elected to congress in 1921, and supported much of President Roosevelt’s early legislation. MISS CLARA DUTTON NOYES, wxty-six, director of the American Red Cross nursing died in Washington a few minutes after she was stricken while driving to work in her car. Miss Noyes was assistant director of the American Red Cross nursing service during the World war. She also had been superintendent of nurses at the Bellevue and allied hospitals in New York. Cyrus Hall McCormick, whose father developed the farm reaper and who himself helped organize the International Harvester company and was Its president for 33 years, died at his home in Lake Forest, 111., at the age of sev-enty-sevea years. He was noted as a progressive business man, liberal with hls employees and always Interested actively In public welfare movements. He was rated a* one of the wealthiest men In America and gave millions of dollars to educational and charitable organizations. Marshal pietro badoglio. conqueror of Ethiopia and now viceroy at that part of the reconstltut ed “Roman empire." returned to the

Eternal City to triumph and was vociferously welcomed as a hero. Sixty thousand Romans welcomed him as be stepped from hto train, and Premier Mussolini modestly waited in the background until they had shouted their greetings to the veteran warrior. Then II Duce came forward and

I Viceroy Badoglio

kissed the viceroy on both cheeks, and the high ranking Fascist military leaders paid homage. With the premier and the picked troops forming the escort of honor were the entire cabinet Several days later a great military review was held. The other ride of th* pictc~e was seat in London, where Halle Sqlazsie, the depoeed emperor of Ethiopia, arrived la tears aiffi sadness, though he was given an ovation by the cheering thousands that had seldom been accorded to visitors to England. Many of the Londoners carried Ethiopian flags or scartet banners reading “Welcome to the Emperor.” With the white gympathtoers were many African 1b native SobmUb* w* * (WM* ChiD€®& t and colored I people'fro** all parts of the wwM. Tltere was an outburst of wild cheerwearing a long black cape, stepped .. L, /

from his private sleeping car and was greeted by many notables, including O. Q Harvey, private secretary of Anthony Eden, British foreign secretary. Harvey was the lone representative of the British government. Selassie received three addresses welcoming "Ms imperial majesty Halle Selassie” from representatives of the Ethiopia association, the Friends of Ethiopia, and the Pan-African federation. wishing “Ethiopia’s speedy return to independence with the rightful emperor leading his people toward light and peace." The former emperor smiled sadly. "God grant it may be so,” he whispered. JUST as the "popular front" in France was taking over the government the country was distracted by strikes that spread rapidly to almost all industrial centers and involved all manner of trades. The workers demanded higher wages, a 40-hour week and a closed shop, and they went out by the hundred thousand though they knew they were causing great embarrassment to their own leaders. In many cases the strikers took possession of the closed plants. In Spain the syndicalists tied up various Industries by strikes that involved about 250,000 workers and that were marked by several murders and other outrages. Augusto Barcia, minister of state, said the government planned to outlaw the syndicalists if they persisted In disobeying orders from the ministries of labor and the interior. JH. THOMAS, until recently Brit- • toh colonial secretary, was found responsible by a special government tribunal for the leak in budget secrets which enabled some of hls friends to profit largely through insurance against tax raises. Final disposition of the case was left to the house of commons. Thomas, once an engine wiper and later a powerful figure in organized labor and politics, termed the tribune’s verdict “cruel.” He said: “My own conscience is clear. I repeat what I previously stated upon oath: that I made no disclosures of budget secrets to anybody." RURAL housewives from many countries began their third triennial conference in Washington with Mrs. Alfred Watt of Canada presiding.

IP b x L Mrs. Alfred Watt

held “exchange of experience" sessions, viewed elaborate exhibits of rural need.ework and crafts of organized countrywomen of the participating nations, and attended “open bouses” held by ail branches of the federal government In which countrywomen are particularly Interested. In exchanging experiences the women learned, among other things, that: English groups have stimulated a remunerative revival of quilting to zupplement the family Income. Australian countrywomen maintain seaside homes for convalescents Canada’s Federated Women's institute promotes clubs for rural youth and combats maternal and Infant mortality. By conducting evening classes for young girls Danish countrywomen have helped to check their migration to town to seek factory work. IN A report just made public the haziness advisory council proposes a simplified basis for industrial selfregulation through the medium of voluntary joint agreements on unfair trade practices enforceable by the federal trade commission. The report was prepared by the council’s committee oa unfair trade practices of which Lincoln Filene of Boston Is chairman. Outstanding among the committee's proposals were suggestions that each branch of an industry, such as wholesal*, retail, and manufacturing, police the activities of each other through confidential reports to the federal trade commission and that no attempt be made to include trade practice and labor provisions in the same agreemento, THE Department of Agriculture recommended to the senate that the administration of the Taylor grazin' act, affecting 80.000.000 acres of range land, be transfered to Its control that of the Department of the Interior. Secretary Ickes retorted with the accusation that the Agricultural department had hindered hls program to rehabilitate western grazing lands. He said Secretary Wallace's department has Insisted upon having so many COQ camps for the forestry service that the Interior department could not get enough COC help to administer efficiently the Taylor act THE so-called industrial moblUxatlon plan of the War department, providing for a military dictatorship over labor, capital and industry, as well as censorship of the press in wartime, was severely condemned in a report to the senate by the munitions committee. The committee objected particulariy

Their first meeting was held in 1930 in Vienna, and the second in Stockholm three years later. Secretaries Hull and Wallace and Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt, wife of the President, extended greetings to the visitors, but beyond that there were no set speeches and little formality. Instead, the farm wives

UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL SUNDAY I chool Lesson By MV. P. a FITZWATER. D. D, Mcxntor <rf Faculty. Moody BIM* Tanltut* ot Chicago. • Weotorn N»»«*cer Union. Lesson for June 14 JEBUB CRUCIFIED LESSON TEXT—Luk* IJ.J3-40. GOLDEN TEXT—But God commend•th his love toward us, in that, whll* wa wore yet sinners, Christ died for u*.—Romans 5:8. PRIMARY TOPIC—When Jesus Died for Ue. JUNIOR TOPIC—The Savior—Christ the Lord. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPlC—Jesus Died for Me. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—The Meaning of the Cross. It to highly Important that every teacher have the personal experience of Christ’s death for himself and then get his pupils to see that Christ’s death was Instead of their own death. We escape judgment because judgment fell upon Christ He was made to be sin for us that we might be made the righteousness of God In him (II Cor. 5:21). No one lacking this experience can truly teach this lesson. I. The Place of Crucifixion (v. 33). They led him away to Calvary, a hill north of Jerusalem resembling a skull. Calvary to the Latin word, and Golgotha is the Hebrew. This to a most significant name for the place where man’s redemption was accomplished. The skull to an apt symbol of man’s condition as a result of sin. Life and intelligence are gone, leaving only the dark empty cavern which once contained them. 11. Hto Companions on the Cross (v. 33). Two malefactors were crucified with him. This to in fulfillment of the Scriptures: "He was numbered with the transgressors" (Isa. 53:12). Personally, he was sinless, but he became sin for us. 111. Hto Forgiving Love (v. 34). He cried, “Father forgive them." He doubtless had in mind not only the soldiers who acted for the government, but the Jews who in their blindness were ignorant of the enormity of their crime. He was absolutely destitute of hatred, even for hto betrayer and murderers. IV. The Revelation of the World (vv. 34-43). Take a cross section of the world at any time since Christ was crucified, and representatives of the various classes therein were found around Jesus on the cross. The cross Is the judgment of this world (John 12:31). L The covetous (v. 34). They gambled for hls seamless robe where he was dying. This represents those whose primary interest in Christ is a means to get gain. If they had had eyes to see they could have beheld a robe of righteousness being provided in hls death. 2. The Indifferent (▼. 35). “The people stood beholding." They gazed upon him with indifference. The great mass of the world today gazes upon the crucified Christ with stolid indifference. 3. The scoffers (vv. 35-39). a. The rulers reviled him for hls claim to be the Savior. They wanted a Savior but not a crucified one. Many today are religious but have only contempt for a salvation which centers in an atonement made by blood. They uttered a great truth when they said: “He saved others." But be could not save himself and others because God’s plan was to save others by giving himself. b. The soldiers reviled him for claiming to be a king. The title “King of the Jews" had been placed over him in irony. But it was pre-eminently true, for by right of the Davidic covenant, he shall one day be king over Israel (Il Sam. 7:8-16). Through hto death, be came Into the place of Lordship over all who will acknowledge him, c. The impenitent malefactor (v. 39). This brutal man joined in reviling the Savior, even though be himself was under condemnation. 4. The padtent malefactor (vv. 40-43). The conscious sinner who discerned the heart of the Savior prayed for mercy. The salvation of this penitent man to a remarkable picture of the saving power of Christ. The man confessed hto sin as against God and cried to Jesus for salvation. He saw that the dying man was the forgiving God. Hto salvation was immediate. Christ imirt- “Today shalt thou be with me in paradise.” V. Ths Death of Christ (w. 44-46). So shocking was this crime that nature herself threw around the Son of God a shroud to hide him from the godless crowd. Darkness was upon the land at noonday. When the price of win was paid he cried with a loud voice, showing that be still bad vitality, that hto death was not through exhaustion but by hto sovereign will He died like no other one in all history. He gave up the ghost, that to, dismissed hto spirit. Turning Away From Doty When we turn away from some duty or some fellow-creature, saying that our hearts are too sick and sore with some great yearning ot our own, we may often sever the line on which a divine message was coming to us. There to a plan working In our lives; and, If we keep our hearts quiet and our eyes open it all works together; and, If we don’t, it all fights together, and goes on fighting till it comes right, somehow, somewhere.—Annie Keary.
