Women Poor Spies Although women did some of the most important spy work during the late World war, they did not make good spies, declares Major G. O. T. Bagley, former British secret service agent. "There were some very clever women spies,’’ he said, "but women just don’t make good secret service agents. Their reports, especially on military matters, are usually inaccurate and exaggerated. They wear put quickly with fatigue and nervous strain, and, last, and worst of all, they fall in love. ' "The war records abound in accounts of successful missions carried out by men, but there were only three women who turned in good jobs of spying. Mata Hari was perhaps the greatest. Then come Louis de Bettignies, whose nom de guerre was Alice Dubois. She was brilliantly successful with the British. Annemarie Dresser, known throughout Europe as Fraulein Doktor, is the third. She was the head of Germany’s big spy school in Antwerp.

BRISBANE THIS WEEK
For the Pacific States A Good Example It Sold for S7OO The Pacific states should interest themselves in air defense, apart
from the national government. When a committee of rich men from New York called on Abraham Li ncoln, told him how much money they had, and urged that he send a good battleship to do nothing but protect New York city, his reply was that if he had as much money
Arther Brtabaae
as they said they had, he would build a battleship for himself. The west coast states, California, Oregon, Washington, co-operating perhaps with their vigorous neighbors of Vancouver, and other points above the Canadian border, might well have a few flying ships of their own, a sort of air militia. San Francisco, where they combine patriotism with plenty of money, and great civic pride and energy, might well start the idea of a Pacific coast flying force. That need not be very expensive. A hundred machines to begin with, a hundred plucky young fliers, practicing the gentle art of flying at night, and dropping bombs, practicing especially mimic warfare against other flying machines, would constitute an admirable object lesson to the rest of the country. And if California, in San Francisco for instance, should startle little flock of one hundred machines, Los could be relied upon to hurry in with two hundred, Seattle and other coast cities also. s 1 Such machines need not be a total loss. In the first place, many young gentlemen with rich fathers, not knowing exactly what to do with themselves, extremely anxious to find work worth while, and preferably dangerous, would delight in each equipping his individual machine, for the service of the Pacific coast and of Uncle Sam, as the nobles in the old days delighted in equipping each his regiment, or his fighting ship, for the service of the king. Two hundred or three hundred high - powered, swift flying machines, directed by quick and courageous American brains, would be worth more to the safety of the Pacific* coast than a hundred battleships. For the fighters that come, if they do come, will fly miles above the battleships. They would come less gaily, less confidently, if they knew that trained fliers awaited them. Hideyo Noguchi, who gave his life to fight yellow fever in Africa, will inspire many men. He was born of a proud, warlike race, intensely selfcentered, for 2,000 years a hermit people. The loyalty of a Japanese was to family, clan, above all to the emperor representing his race. The rest of the world was nothing to him. Born one generation after Japan opened her doors to the world, Noguchi felt the new spirit of the times. He was loyal to family, clan, emperor, race; but he was devoted chiefly to all human kind. From boyhood to the last, through poverty and many perils, he studied how to wipe out disease. He discovered the *erm of yellow fever, developed t urns to prevent the fever or cure it, led in the work that has driven it out of America and will soon put an end to it throughout the world. Yellow fever killed countless millions of all peoples. Noguchi’s skill and deyotion have saved the lives of millions, too many to estimate, most of them foreigners to whom his forefathers would have paid no attention, calling them hei-min, or no-folks. Noguchi’s self-sacrifice to human welfare sets an example that is sure to be followed. Perhaps, in time, most men will see that it is better to help one another than to kill or even rob one another. -J It is said the Hackensack Indians sold to the white men for so many bars of lead, and some finery, worth altogether S7OO, land on which now stands the entire city of Newark, N.

Land goes up wonderfully. Doctors at Kansas City report that birth control information so much discussed does little good to the poor, and has censed an "al arming slump in child bearing among educated families.” That is how reform works, usually.

Senator Couzens Defeated in Michigan Primaries — Recaptured by Republicans—Notable Gathering of Savants at Harvard Tercentenary.
By EDWARD W. PICKARD • W eaters Newspaper Union.
REPUBLICANS were highly gratified by the results of the Michigan primary election for two reasons: First, because three out of
I W Sen. Couiens
five persons who went to the polls asked for Republican ballots; second, bee a u s e Senator James Couzens, a Republican who has openly declared that he is supporting President Roosevelt for re-election, lost his fight for renomination. C o u zens, one of the
wealthiest members of the senate, was badly defeated by former Gov. Wilbur M. Brucker, and there is more than a suspicion that he knew his fate beforehand. Brucker, who is only forty-two years old, has been in public life for almost twenty years. The Republicans re-nom-inated Frank D. Fitzgerald for the governorship. On the Democratic side Representative Prentiss M. Brown won the senatorial nomination against Louis B. Ward who was supported by Father Coughlin. For governor they chose Frank Nlurphy, high commissioner to tbedPhmppines and former mayor of'Detroit.'Both Murphy and his defeated opponent, George Welsh, campaigned as Roosevelt supporters. In the New Hampshire primaries Gov. H. Styles Bridges won the Republican senatorial nomination, ending the effort of former Senator George H. Moses to stage a comeback. The Democrats put up Representative William N. Rogers. Nominees for governor are Maj. Francis P. Murphy, Republican, and Amos N. Blandin, Democrat. Massachusetts will have for senator either Henry Cabot Lodge, Jr., Republican, or James M. Curley, now governor, Democrat. John W. Haigis, Republican, and Charles F. Hurley, Democrat, were nominated for the governorship. The gubernatorial nominees in Wisconsin are: Gov. Philip La Follette, Progressive; Alexander Wiley, Republican, and Arthur W. Lueck, Democrat. MAINE, the “barometer” state, is back in the Republican column at least so far as its state ticket is concerned. The G. O. P. captured the United States senatorship, the governorship and three congressional seats. Senator Wallace H. White, Republican, defeated Gov. Louis J. Brann, who sought to unseat him. Lewis O. Barrows, Republican, won the governorship by a substantial majority over F. Harold Dubord, Democrat. The vote cast broke all records for size and interest in the election was intense. The state had been visited by both President Roosevelt, as he returned from his vacation cruise, and Gov. Alf M. Landon, the Republican Presidential nominee, who made speeches there only a few days ago. Colonel Knox, vice presidential candidate on the Republican ticket, also had canvassed the state. Brann, who was elected governor in 1932 and re-elected two years later, was the first Democrat to hold that office in Maine and was personally popular. White was elected senator in 1930 after ten years in the house of representatives. SECRETARY OF AGRICULTURE WALLACE has approved the new $10,000,000 seed com loan program of the AAA. The government will advance farmers two types of loans on seed com stored on the farm. Advances of SI.7S a bushel will be made to farmers on 1,000,000 bushels of selected corn. The government will have the option of buying this corn at $3.50 a bushel up to April 1, 1937. The second type of loan permits advances of 55 cents a bushel on "good quality and properly stored cribbed corn which can be sorted for seed at a later date.” On the latter type of loan the government retains the right to purchase the collateral at $1.50 a bushel until April 1 next. It is understood the Reconstruction Finance corporation?has agreed to advance up to $10,000,000 under the loan program. The loans will be made to farmers through the Commodity Credit corporation. The interest rate on the new loans will be 4 per cent, the same as was in effect under the old corn loan program. FEDERAL government help in controlling their business has been asked by two large sections of the tobacco industry. The Retail Tobacco Dealers of America, Inc., representing about 300,000 retailers of tobacco products, requested the federal trade rommivunn to authorize a trade practice conference with a view for formulating rules for the elimination of unfair methods of competition and trade abuses. Repreftentativ*** from nine tobacco producing states wound up a twoday conference in Washington with a request addressed to the agricultural adjustment administration to draft a model production control *T'O THE sixty-sixth annual con- * grass of the American Prison association, held in Chicago, was presented a report from the committee oamme prevention in which

inals to repeat their offenses. The committee declared that 75 per cent of the prisoners now in penal institutions in this country had been "literally faced about into a career of crime” by their experiences with defense attorneys. The coaching of the attorney tended to help the defendant find an alibi for his misdeeds and a sedative for his conscience, according to the report, when public welfare should have guided the lawyer to conduct "which would quicken the sensibilities of the prisoner find awaken him to his own misdeeds.” The committee recommended more scientific methods in preventing and combating crime and it estimated that the country’s annual crime cost is sls,ooo,ooo,ooo—"onefourth of the national income; half of the war debt.” E* OR the first time in seven years 1 the United States is to have a squadron in European Atlantic waters. It is known as "Squadron 40temporary” and Rear Admiral Arthur P. Fairfield was named as its commander. Admiral Fairfield hoisted his flag aboard the light cruiser Raleigh at the Norfolk navy yard and sailed for Gibraltar. At first the squadron will consist of the flagship Raleigh, the destroyers Kane and Hatfield and the coast guard cutter Cayuga, but navy officials expected its strength would be increased soon. The Hatfield, Kane and Cayuga had been on emergency duty in Spanish waters since the outbreak of th? Spanish revolt until they were withdrawn to nearby neutral ports following the attempted bombing of the Kane by an unknown plane off Cadiz last August 30. P‘ IS pleasant to turn from war and politics and ead of the doings at Cambridge, Mass., where Harvard university is celebrating
the tercentenary of its founding. In Sanders theater was held the academic reception for 554 scholars representing 502 universities, Colleges and learned societies in every state of the Union and in forty foreign countries, and all of them wearing the caps, gowns and hoods signifying

their various degrees of scholar* ship. President James B. Conant greeted the guests, accepted their credentials and delivered a simple address of welcome. He noted that the assembly was an impressive demonstration of the solidarity of the academic world, and saw in the greetings of the delegates “the continued aspiration of mankind toward a universal fellowship based on human reason.’’ Responding on behalf of the delegates, Prof. Elie Cartan of the University of Paris paid tribute to Harvard’s contributions to education and declared that “no barrier, political, religious or social, should be erected to stop the search for truth." When the delegates were called up in the order of the age of the institutions they represented, first to respond was Prof. Saleh Hashem Attia of, Al-Azhar university of Cairo, founded in 970. Then came the next oldest, the Regia university, Neglie Stuni Bologna, founded in the Tenth century, and represented by Prof. Carrado Gini. Third was the University of Paris, founded in the Eleventh century, whose representative was Dr. Cartan. Oxford, Cambridge and all the others followed, down to the youngest represented, the Academia Sinica of Nanking, China. World famous educators, scientists and men of letters including ten Nobel prize winners, were among those who attended the reception. PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT still 1 hopes that a St. Lawrence waterway treaty can be negotiated with Canada within the coming year. The hope was expressed to Fred J. Freestone, chairman of the National Seaway council, who called at the White House with a number of council officials to present a long letter urging completion of the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence project. This letter held the project system to be the most valuable and useful natural resource on the American continent for navigation a: d power development.

IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL SUNDAY I chool Lesson By REV. HAROLD L. LUNDQUIST. Deea at the Moody Bible Institute of Chlctti • Western Newspaper Union.
Lesson for September 27 REVIEW: THE SPREAD OF CHRISTIANITY IN WESTERN ASIA LESSON TEXT—Matthew 13:34-33. GOLDEN TEXT — They rehearsed all that God had done with them, and how he had opened the door of faith unto the Gentiles.—Acts 14:37. PRIMARY TOPIC —How the Good News Spread. JUNIOR TOPIC—How the Good News Spread. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPlC—Christianity Reaching Out. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC —The Spread of Christianity in Western Asia. Review Sunday provides a needed opportunity to determine not only whether the class members have learned and retained the truth taught, but, what is df equal importance, whether the teacher has accomplished the purpose in mind at the beginning of the series. What was the aim set before us for the three months? "To lead the student to an understanding of New Testament Christianity, and to beget in him the desire and purpose to live the Christian life and to win others to faith in the Lord Jesus.” While one might differ with the mode of expressing the aim or purpose one must give hearty approval to it. The test which we apply as the twelve lessons of the past quarter pass in review is As a student, have I seen in the spread of Christianity the operation of a gospel of salvation which is the power of God for my salvation? Or, if I am saved, have I been stirred to a more earnest Christian life and a real passion for the salvation of others? As a teacher, have I really used my opportunity to win the members of my class to faith in the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ? Have I brought to bear on the lives of those in my class who are Christians the Word of God, stirring them to holiness of life and zeal for God’s cause on earth? If we cannot reply in the affirmative, should we not ask whether our efforts to teach have been largely fruitless? But let us not be discouraged, for even as we now review the lessons we have studied together the Holy Spirit is ready to do His work and apply the truth to hearts and lives. To many teachers the preparation and presentation of the review lesson is the most difficult of any during the quarter. To the student who has given little or nothing to the preparation of weekly lessons it is often a rather disconnected and uninteresting recapitulation of twelve lessons. A suggested method of gathering up the essential teachings of these lessons is to group them around the following seven points: The spread of Christianity after our Lord’s departure into the glory was distinguished by the fact that 1. It was by the preaching of a faith that began and continued in the power and demonstration of the Holy Spirit. God honors such preaching and teaching in our day —but we need more of it. 2. It was a spiritual movement that demonstrated its God-given power by thriving on persecution. One wonders whether much of the activity of the church in our day has not fallen into the doldrums of pious respectability. Perhaps we need a little persecution. 3. It was not the propagation of theological theory or of a religious sect or party. It was a movement of the Spirit of God which saved men, and saved them to win and serve their fellow-men. True Christian service is nobler and more sacrificial than any nonChristian social service. 4. It was a movement in which laymen as well as religious workers had a place. Philip the layman served with Paul the apostle. Lay men and women let us be awake to our responsibilities and privileges. 5. Difference of opinion was not permitted to hinder God’s work. Do we know enough to let God work among us, even if he does not work just as we think he should? 6. The missionary spirit of the preacher was carried over to the convert. This is a succession which God has continued to our day. Are we co-operating and helping it forward? 7. The gospel is for all men, Gentile as well as Jew, whether yellow, red, black, or white. The great commission is still our command and our authority to pray, give, and go, that all men may hear the gospel of the Grace of God. Power at Little Rivers Little rivers seem to have the indefinable quality that belongs to certain people in the world—the power of drawing attention without counting it, the faculty of exciting interest by their very presence and way of doing things.—Van Dyke. On Being Just Whatever is unjust is contrary to the divine will; and from this it follows that no true and abiding happiness cah be gained by those who are unjust.—Stretch. A Just Man As to be perfectly just is an attribute of the. Divine nature, to be I so to the utmost of our abilities is I the glory of man. Beal HOBttMNS ]

It Doesn’t Pay—- ♦ Doing Favors for Others With Thought of Retvurn Disappoints •
H'T'HE older I grow the more I * am appalled by the ingratitude, the complete lack of a sense of obligation on the part of our fellow human beings. “With me the people who come first are always those to whom I have any obligation whatsoever. Anything that is done for me is constantly on my mind and I am on the lookout to repay. But look about you and you will observe the most inconceivable indifference on the part of most otherwise decent people to what they owe to others. Indeed the code seems to be to cultivate those from whom some advantage may be forthcoming and neglect those to whom we are indebted. The answer to it all is to put yourself out for nobody; it doesn’t pay.” The above lament was received by an international writer of note, who answers as follows: It must have been an unusually unfortunate chain of experiences that gave this woman such an unhappy slant on human nature. But certain it is that favors done with thought of return are bound to bring disappointment. In this busy, hectic world, people are likely to be rather casual about give and take. Tthat does not necessarily mean that they are unappreciative. They are just not punctilious. Frequently a kindness makes its, mark but time passes before occasion presents
