MUST NOT RETREAT
From Hutchison (Kan.) News
Congress is passing, over some opposition,
a bill to extend the embargo
against importation of dyes until November
27. The object of this extension
is to give time for the passage of
a new general tariff law which will
probably include protection for the
dye industry of the United States.
The memory of most of us is very
short. We have probably forgotten
our experience soon after the beginning
of the World War when the importations
from Germany were cut
off and America was left with only
such dyes as are made in this country.
' 1 :
It is fair to say that no dyes had
been made in this country because attempts
at the manufacturing of dyes
had been defeated by the importation
of low priced German dyes, which advanced
in price as soon as American
competition yrrfs destroyed. We were
accepting^fhe theory that Americans
^7 ?i? i
vauLUA-Tiut numtj ^uuu
Tt will be remembered that for
some time America did not make good
dyes and that our dyed materials I
wore a disgrace to an inventive and
industrious country. They dyes faded
out and washed out and though
they were high *in-price they were not
only poor in quality but often destructive.
American genius and American capital
went to work to discover the
secrets of the' German laboratories
and by the time the war finished,
A merican dyes were able to sit up and
take notice.
We had practically achieved our
independence of the .German monopoly
by the expenditure of a great deal
of time, energy and money*
' It would be the height of folly to
put ourselves at the mercies of the
German manufacturers. Dyes and
the by-products and the chemicals
which are necessary to their manufacture
were found to be as essential
to the conduct of a war as military
armament. W-e not only paid a high
lrripn fnv aiiv ovnr?vw>r?r*n Vtv nnfni*fnn
ate losses but were compelled to put
our efforts into this lino of production
at a time when they were needed on
others.
The Germans are apparently able
to produce dyes at a cheaper cost
than our factories, here is a question
to be considered as to whether
American manufacturers are making
large profits or not. But there is
no question as to the necessity of
maintaining a dye industry in the
Gnited States which will at least he
able to cope with another situation
such as that which confronted the
country in 1914.

Mystery Still Unsolved
Papeete, Tahiti, Sept. 13.?Who the
people were who erected the massive
walls, fortifications and platforms to
be found on widely separated islands
all through the South Seas still remains
a mystery.
For the past 18 months a representative
of the British Museum has been
studying the massive stone structures
on Faster Island. He is now on his
way to Kapa to investigate the megalithic
remains on the slopes of the
mountains there. The same race
that erected the colossal statues on
Faster Island, he believes constructed
the Rapa fortifications.
These great builders were a race
of white men of Aryan stock, according
to Professor McMillan-Brown, of
New Zealand, who has written a book ;
in support of his contention.
Aftpr pniifirnfinn ncrncc fhn cfnnnoc
of Asia in the Stone Age the New
Zealand professor says these white ,
men finally occupied the Japanese Islands.
But again they moved on, this
time compelled by increasing pres- j
sure of Mongolian hordes coming J
down from the high plateaus of the .
continent, and they went out to find
new habitations across the wide ex- ^
panse of the Pacific. There
they set up an island em- j
pire. with its capital the great me- .
gatithic city, the walls of which still
stand, on the island of Ponape in the
Carolines. It was this white race, *
the professor maintains, that in the 1
days of their undisputed possession J
of the South Sea islands erected these *
enduring monuments.
Many centuries later came a dark
skinned race from Indonesia which .
conquered the inhabitants and amalwamating
with them produced the ,
Polynesian type of today.
Professor McMillian-Brown's argu- *
ment is not generally accepted as
sound by a large number of students .
of Polynesian origins, but they have
failed so far to offer a convincing !
theory in its place. j
Addresses Educational
Conference
- 1 ondon. Sept. 14.?Modem minis- j
tc?s are trained as mere "salesmen" '
instead of Christian apostles and that
is one reason why the people generally *
have a luke-warm attitude tward re- T
ligion, declared the Rev. Dr. J. S. 1
Ladd Thomas of Chicago, in an ad- J
dress here today before the Ecumeni- *
cal Methodist Conference. The speak- i
er said he saw "a real pRfl" in the ]
pfTnrf af Honnm inof i/\r*a 1 I
force the ministry into a narrow and
mechanical scheme whoee direct aim
is to produce the largest immediate
revenue.
"Poorly attended churches all over
the land bear witness to the people's
indifference toward institutional religion,"
said Dr. Thomas. "Full
ihurches are the exception rather than
the rule. It is the empty church which
stares us in the face and, 'more eloquently
than words' speaks of the attitude
of that large group of people
who have rejected institutional religion
as something unnecessary in .
their lives. ;
"They are pleasure mad; they have ,
a mania for materialistic indulgence, ;
while their belief in the modern
church as the representative of God 1
ard the Ambassador of Christ does '
not express itself. The real problem."
the speaker indicated, "is how to vitalise
< he church so that she may
authoritatively and convincingly persuade
men of the'r divine inheritance
and the mission of sacrificial service."
Asserting that "the average artisan <
lacks conlidence in the church as the 1
champion of the 'square deal," he con
'"Tlii^ indifference has arisen from a I
misconception of Clod?a wrong tcacb- h
ing of Cod?a wrong teaching of the J;
church and a wrong teaching of the I,
Christian life. In many of the critical',
hours of history the church has failed.,
lo impress the world with an authoritative
message--which would bring ,
light into the dark hours on the subject
of war, the relations of capital
and labor and other vital question^ '
which have been baffling the minds of !
men.1' '
"Prophets and priests " Or. Thomas
said, must "challenge the people with '
a gospel that will restore confidence in
the church, trust in Christ and service, j
to the world. The church must not
forget her social message but she

is a religion of the individual."
King Christian
is not Coming
Copenhagen, Aug. 30.?Rumors '
that King Christian of Denmark is 1
shortly to pay an official visit to the
United States are unfounded.
The rumors probably arose from
the fact that-many influential Danes
and Americans livinp: at present here
were of the opinion that an official
visit to America bv the King and j
Queen would be likely to further strengthen
the natural bonds of
friendship between the two nations. J
They also thought that it was desir- <
able the King should pro as his own
ambassador and express Denmark's
prratitude toward America for her j
valuable aid in fretting1 back Danish ;
Slesvig from Germany. i

Urges Full Citizenship
Sydney N. S. W.f July 27. (By
Mail).?Relaxing of the policy of a
ivhite Australia was favored by seviral
speakers at a conference on Australia's
relations with the East helc.
>y the Australian Student -Christian
Vlovement last week in Melbourne.
Dr. Sydney Strong of Seattle,
iVash., said a policy of Asiatic exilusion
would tend to make Austra
ia provincial. He declared that alowing
entrance to Australia on a
lumerical percentage basis of the
*reat races of colored people surrounding
her would cause no econonic
disturbance. He urged that
:hese races be allowed full citizenship.
Samuel Mauger, former member of
;he Commonwealth Parliament, said
:he demand for a white Australia
was born, with the Commonwealth.
Econortiic reasons prompted it, he
said, but it was directly contrary to
:he teachings of Jesus Christ.
The idea that any section of the
human race were to be permanently
segregated could never be entertained,
D. K. Picken, master of Ormond
College, told the delegates.

Enforce Teaching
of English
Winnipeg, Man., Sept. 15.? Manitoba
is prepared to enforce the teaching
of English to every Mennonite
child of the province during the coming
school term, it is officially announced.
Thirteen new schools have
been completed or will be shortly in
the heart of Mennonite colonies where
the geratest opposition to public 1
schools was to be found.
Despite talk of migration to Mexico
ar.d other foreign countries, no Memnonites
have as yet migrated from
Manitoba this year.
In a majority of districts the Mennonites
have become reconciled to the
public schools, it is said, and in certain
localities are renting the old Mennonites
schools for use as public
schools.

Golden Jubilee
of Summr Colony
Squirrel Island, Me., Sejt. 14.?
Fifty years ago twenty men bought
this island for a retreat from city life
in the hot months of the year, formed
a community and gave it religion and
a local government.
Now their children are celebrating
the golden jubilee of the establishment
of the Maine summer colony
idea. They declare that while summer
homes had dotted the coast of
Maine before 1871, it was the success
of the Squirrel Island Community
that led to the founding of other colonies
all the way from Kittery to
Sorrento*
Founded for freedom and fun modified
by church and village regulation,
the squirrel Island Association was
from the first on a basis of sex equality.'
Women voted with men under a
compact described as being "as obedient
to Divine Guidance as that of the
Mayflower Pilgrims."
Renews Old Controversy
Buenos Aires, Sept. 14.?When
President Harding said at the unveiling
of the statue of General Simon
Bolivar in New York that freedom in
the American continents was due
principally to two heroes, Washington
and Bolivar, he caused to flame forth
afresh an old controversy regarding
the relative merits of Bolivar and the
hero of Southern South America, General
San Martin.
As a result of this the Junta de His'toria
Numismatica Americana here
has proposed that congress should
pass a law providing $300,000 Argentina

[played by the Argentine hero in the
struggle against Spain. The plan is
to have the picture displayed in South
America and in other lands so that
the world may have a better understanding
of the exploits of the leader
who captured Lima, Peru, and thus
broke the backbone of the Spanish
power.
Historians of the southern part of
the continent have long accused those
of the northern half and of Central
America of persistently attempting to
belittle the deeds of San Martin. They
point out that while Bolivar freed the
north, San Martin accomplished the
titanic feat of leading an army from
Argentina across the Andes, freeing
Chile and later capturing Lima, which
was the seat of Spanish power. This,
they say, put an end to Spanish resistance.
Bolivar also was approaching Lima
at the time of its capture, coming
from the north. The two generals met
in Guayaquil, Ecuador, and General
Sar Martin resigned Lima to his fellow
liberator, returning himself to Argentina.
Engineers Meet in
New York
New York, Sept. 17.?Delegates
from various engineering societies of
Englilund, France and America will
meet here next month to "establish
a new international contact which
shall promote concord among the
English speaking countries, advam e
the science of engineering and work
along conservative lines for the establishment
of international peace."
This movement began during the
war when the engineers of *hese
countries linked their activities behind
the lines. Their program now,
officials of engineering societies explain,
is to open fresh international
channels not unlike the Carnegie Endowment
for International Peace, the
Sulgrave Institution and the English
Speaking Union.

Native Customs Passing
Papeete, Tahiti/ Aug. 16. ?(By
Mail.)?Horse racing, wheels of fortune,
target shooting and the movies
have largely displaced native pastimes
on fete days in this colony of
France in the South Sea3.
Tahiti's principal event of July, for
instance, is the Fesitval of the 14th,
France's national day. In earlier
years this celebration was the occasion
of the revival of many picturesque
native customs?ancient dances
and songs and canoe contests.
Of late vears this festival bno bo.
come merely perfunctory. Singing
and dancing contests do continue byt
only the districts about this town participate,
and they last but an eveping
and a morning. The rest of the six
or seven days of the fete are given
over to entertainment that vividly recalls
the American county fair.
