THE OLD "COME ON" ?
Ever since the World war ended sad disillusionment
has been the lot of America. Immediately after the
"war to end wars." for instance, foreign nations began
to hatch another imbroglio. America had to whistle
for most of the money loaned abroad. In addition it
has had to listen to numerous overseas contentions that
the United States played a minor role in the winning of
the great war
Suddenly, however, we are beginning to learn that
debtor nations are considering paying off. and to find
out—as Lord Lothian expressed himself in the house of
lords the other day—that Britain could not have emerg
ed victor from the World War without Uncle Sum's aid.
Honeyed words, these, but are they sincere ? Or
are they just part of a campaign to cement tattered
bonds of Anglo-American understanding, and to lure
Uncle Sum back into his role of 1917-T8 ?
CONSERVATION TO THE FORE
It was a happy if obvious choice on the part of the
Rod and Gun Editors Association to select President
Roosevelt as tine recipient of its first annual award to
the man who had done the most for conservation during
the past year. This is indeed sure ground. There
car. be only praise for the broad and firm stand which
the President has maintained for the preservation- not
merely of the mountains and forests, the rivers and the
streams of America, but of the beasts, birds and fishes
which enrich our lands and waters and give so much
of value, both material and esthetic, to the world of out
doors. Even while he was writing m acceptance and
appreciation of the association's award. Mr Roosevelt
gave evidence anew that he practices what he preaches
with respect to conservation He displayed at the
White House a bill from the State of New York for 26.
000 Norway spruces, balsam and Douglas Srs for furth
er reforestation at Hyde Park
Secretary Ickes has proved a forceful and enthusi
astic lieutenant to his chief in conservation policy. Be
fore the editors he called it ' the most pressing and vital
domestic problem confronting our people today * * *

strips and farm wind-breaks in the Prairie States had
survived last year's drought. More game and better
fishing in many scattered sections of the country furth
er attest to the wisdom of conservation measures inaug

permit no more exploitation or waste of our natural
heritage.—New York Times.
A WELCOME PACT
Even more significant and encouraging, in some re
spects. than the original contract between the steel
workers' union and the U. S. Steel subsidiary compan
ies is the supplementary agreement just signed which
provides for orderly, peaceable adjustment of disputes.
This agreement sets up grievance committees, labor
"courts." and the machinery for selecting and using the
services of an impartial arbitrator. The parties to the
agreement pledge themselves to settle their disputes
thru this machinery “without suspension of work.”
I nsome ways this is the best news that has yet come
out of the steel-labor situation. For if the great indus
try's employers and employes have at least hit upon a
formula that will lay the specter of a steel strike, once
and for all. they have rendered the entire country a
great service.
POLITICAL NOTE
The politician stood on hrs soap box. A group of
hoboes gathered about him to listen.
"Gentlemen.’ shouted the politician. “I’ll begin by
telling you this: If I am elected. I promise you that
even.' unemployed man in this audience will be work
ing within a month!”
One hobo waved a grimy fist.
Be careful what you say there mister,” he snarled.
"You can’t threaten us!”
Dinner Mixedup
He bought a parrot that could talk in seven langua
ges. and the same day he bought a chicken and ordered
both sent to his hme with this note: "Mary. I’m sending
a bird home for dinner. Please roast it.”
Unfortunately, the parrot arrived first and Mary fol
lowed instructions. Dinner was served.
"What’s this?" he asked.
His wife told him.
"That's awful!" he exclaimed. "Why, that bird
could talk in seven languages ”
‘Then, ’ asked his wife, ‘‘why didn t it say some
thing?”_
