The Barnwell People-Sentinel, Bara well, 8. C* Thursday, March 12, 1936 BRISBANE THIS WEEK If Five Dictators Unite England Is Feverish \ Wealth for a Good Girl t Gen. Mitchell Finds Rest Rome bints that Mussolini and Hit ler have arranged a protective treaty with Austria, Po land and Hungary. Five countries un der dictators, unit ed against England and France, still experimenting with the old “d e m o c- racy,” would be In teresting. One dictator, Sta lin, supposed to have an under standing wKth France, might off set the other com bination. Also, Hitler will In 11)14 Germany thought she had Italy In a “triple al liance”—Italy-Austrla-Germany, but Italy did not stay. Had she stayed, the war might have ended otherwise. That Increases Mussolini's bitterness, with England trying to cause Italy’s defeat by barbarous Ethiopia. Arthur Brisbane remember that Sir. Eden, young foreign secretary, tells England modern conditions are “dreadfully” like condltloife before 1014. England must arm herself to the teelh and have, for (Inal objective, “a world wide system of collective se curity which embraces all nations In an authority which Is unchallenged and unchallengeable.” That tplght be done by two or three countries closely united, although the airplane makes everything In war un certain. It might destroy a capital city and an alliance In one morhing, as a pistol destroys the strongest man. Countess Barbara Hutton Haugwltz- Reventlow has a new baby boy weigh ing seven and a half pounds, and twenty million dollars; that In gold at the present price would weigh more than thirty thousand pounds. Ask Barbara Hutton Haugwltz-Iteventlow, as she bolds that small baby, Its eyes not focused, one small hand holding her finger, whether she would rather have the baby or the $1*0.000,OUI, and she will think your question silly. She would not take a million millions for the baby. This proves that any good young woman who marries a kind young man may be richer than any “live and ten” heiress. Gen. William E. Mitchell was hurled In the family burial plot in Milwaukee, not in Arlington cemetery. Having fought all his life against the enemies of his country and the stupidity of his superiors, he wanted peace at the last. He lies beside his father, a United States senator from Wisconsin. General Mitchell has gone wherever patriotic, brave men go; some that opposed him will not follow him there. At Greenwood I.ake, N. V., a mail carrying rocket went feet from New York to New Jersey over Green wood lake, while spectators Mulled In derision. Other spectators smiled when Ful ton tried his first steamboat. In Madison, WIs., death masks of Indians, more than 3,000 years old, found In burial grounds, lead back to savages of the Eskimo type that hunt ed mammoths near the beautiful Wis consin lakes lf>,000 years ago. Those ancient savages, Instead of burying the dead, cleaned the skeletons neatly, covered the skulls with lifelike masks of clay, kept their relatives with them for years. The human* race has done queer things always? Russia has Benin, embalmed, exhibited In the great Red square of Moscow. The world becomes gradually demo cratic. In King George’s funeral pro cession everybody walked. At his father’s funeral, the great all went on horseback, including King George's cousin, the former kaiser, on a pranc ing white horse. Now King Edward VIII orders sim pler uniforms, less fancy dressing In Buckingham palace. » ' President Lewis, fifty, head of the miners' union, plenty of cash on hand, offers William Green, American Fed eration of Labor head, $.->00,000 for a campaign to organize 500,000 men In the steel industry. Mr. Green, a long time union man, has not accepted the offer. He knows how easy It Is for one man to become/a tail for the other man’s kite. L>r. Alfred Adler, compeient psy chologist, says the Dionne quintup lets “should be separated, for their own good.” Mothers will wonder how any psy chologist could suggest separating the five small angels, Yvonne, Anndtte, Ceclle, Emllle and Marie. Mrs. Watson Davis, for Science Service, says the world needs Just now: A remedy for the two greater “killers of men,” cancer and organic heart disease; a substitute for power, developed In primitive fashion from oil, coal, etc. That means harnessing the sun to one end of the scale, the atom at the other.

Review of Current . » ■ ~ Events the World Over Japanese Rebels Slay Four Statesmen and Dictatorship Is Rumored—Hagood’s Removal Starts a Row—Van- denberg Won’t Enter the Ohio Primary* By EDWARD W. PICKARD C Western Newspaper Union. Emperor Hirohlto \^ILTTARISTS of Japan,- led Ijy a AVI group of young army offleera who were Impatient with the government’s^ policy of economy and restraint In the matter of advances In China and Mon golia, suddenly staged a revolt In Tokyo with the avowed purpose of eliminating liberal statesmen whom they considered obstacles to the restoration of a military dictator ship unger Imperial rule. Seizing certain government buildings in the capital, they rushed to the homes of the listed statesmen and succeeded In assassinating four—Premier Admiral Kelsuke Okada; Admiral Viscount Ma- koto, former premier and lord keeper of the privy seal; Gen. Jotaro Wata- nabe. chief of military education, and Koreylko Takahashl, finance minister. Several others were wounded, and servanla of all of them were killed. Emperor Hirohlto Immediately took charge of the situation, called a coun cil of state and made Fumlo Goto tem porary premier. Martial law was pro claimed In Tokyo and the loyal army forces, largely outnumbering the reb els, surrounded the latter In the build ings they had taken. Meanwhile the second fleet, also loyal, moved up to the mouth of Tokyo bay, Its guns domi nating the city. During the first day of the uprising an agreement was reached that the rebel troops should return to their bar racks, but this they refused to do. Then the censorship, temporarily raised, was clamped down again. Dip lomatic quarters In Shanghai received a report that Gen. Sadno Arakl, former minister of war, had established a mili tary dictatorship. He has been the most chauvinistic of all Japan’s high army officers. Political observers In Tokyo believed that the emperor’s advisers would urge the right wing elements to be given a chance to form a cabinet, to see whether they would be able to con duct the government Even liberal political sources shared this belief, confident that such an ex periment would produce a Strong pub He reaction to the left, permitting early restoration of a normal government. S ENATE and bouse conferees patched up the new farm bill, substitute for the Invalidated AAA, both houses accepted the revised measure and It was sent to the White House. Senator Borah argued In vain especially against the so called “consumers’ ” amendment which authorizes the “re-establishment, at ns rapid a rate as the secretary of agriculture determines to be practic able and In the general public Interest, of the ratio between the purchasing power of the net Income per person on farms and the Income per person not on farms that prevailed during the five- year period August. 1000, to July, 1014." Speaking of Gie extraordinary dele gation of power to the secretary of agriculture. Senator Borah said: “We are now asked to confer upon him a task which would require omnipotence. It Is manifestly on the face of It ^n at) surdity. “This Idea that even by divine pow er you can go out and equalize the pur chasing power of the producer and equalize the purchasing power of the laborer, when above them both Is a power which Is fixing a rule under which they live, is to me inconceivable." O N THE ground that the seed Joan requirements of farmers can he met from relief funds on hand, Presi dent Roosevelt vetoed the $50,000,000 crop production bill passed by con gress. In his message he called atten tion to his budget message urging tha» congress provide additional taxes if It enacted legislation Imposing charges not covered in the budget. He said he expected, last year, that such loans ns the seed loan would be tapered olY. He realizes they still are necessary but added : *1 am fully convinced that the im mediate and actual need to which I have referred can be met during the year 103G by an exjWMidittrre of funds materially less than that proposed In the bill under discussion.” NUMMARY removal of ‘MaJ. Gen. ^ Johnson Hngood from his com mand of the Eighth Cforps area be cause of his critical expressions con f Trnlng the WI’A and o.her New Deal activl ties stirred up a pret ty row In Washing ton. Gen. Malin Craig, chief oT staff, signed the order to Hngood by order of the sec rotary of war and the President. The Re publicans In congress. Nncked up by Tom ..lanton of Texas and some other Democrats. Gen. Hagcod assailed the action vigorously, and Senator ( Metcalf of Rhode Island In troduced a resolution for an Inquiry Into the Incident on behalf of “free speech." BreaMng Us "usual rule of silence,” the War department made public a let ter from General Craig to Secretary ^ern, declaring Hagood’p record was “marked by repeated examples of lack of self-control, irresponsible and In temperate statements.** Hagood had told a house subcommit tee that It was “almost Impossible" to get WPA’s “stage money” for “any thing worthwhile." These remarks, said Craig, “can only be characterized as flippant to tone and entirely un called for and designed to bring ridi cule and contempt upon civil agencies of the government” Accusing him of “thinly veiled” op position and “contempt" toward War department policies In the past, Craig pointed out as “contemptuous” Ha good’s references to CCC activities as "hobbles," "collecting postage stamps” and “taking an Interest In butterflies.’’ Seeking a quick settlement of"the controversy, Senator Byrnes, Demo crat, and Representative McSwaln, Democratic chairman of the house mil itary affairs committee, both of whom hall from Hagood’s home state of South Carolina, arranged a conference with Secretary of War Dern. This had no result. S ENATOR VANDENBERG of Mich igan has formally declined to en ter the Ohio Presidential primary, hut does not bar himself from considers tlon for the Republican nomination. Vfrltlng to the Republican state com mittee of Ohio, In reply to an Inquiry as to whether he wopld run, Vandenberg asserted his “sole Interest" In the Re publican convention was that It should make “the wisest possible decisions respecting both party leadership and party policies." To conform to Ohio law, the Borah forces have found the required “sec ond choice." This Is Frank E. Gan nett of Rochester, N. Y., publisher of a chain of newspapers, who has agreed to fight alongside the Idaho senator for Ohio's 52 delegates, to receive the votes of those pledged to Borah should the nomination of the latter he blocked In the convention. Mr. Gannett has expressed the belief that Borah Is the one member of the party “most likely to recover the upstate New Y'ork vote." and ho also holds the view that the Idahoan would he the strongest candidate In the agriculti|gal states. J. Jasper Bell W HILE waiting for Instructions as to what to do In the matter of taxation, the members of the house— and many others—directed their atten tion to the Investiga tion of the activities of the Townsend pen sion plan promoters. Speaker By ms ap pointed on the probing committee of eight two avowed Townsendltes —John H. Tolan, Dem ocrat, and Samuel L. Collins, Republican, both from California. The chairman Is J. Jasper Bell of Mis souri, Democrat, author of the resolu tion for the Investigation. It was un derstood that Mr. Bell had already gathered a mass of Information to substantiate the charge that the Townsend plan has become a huge racket. The leaders of both parties 10 congress have been getting rather nervous over the growth of the Town send movement and are glad to see It attacked; but some Impartial observ ers call attention to the fact that the way the committee Is going after It smacks of unconstitutional abridge ment of the right to petition. It was expected that one of the first questions to be considered by the com mittee would he the salaries received by Dr. Francis E. Townsend, author of the scheme, and It. E. Clements, for mer California real estate operator, co-founder and general manager. QOV. EUGENE TALMADGE Is vlr- GENE TA tnally financial dictator of Geor gia, because the general assembly did not enact an appropriation bill, but he (s having his troublea finding funds to carry on. He declared there waa a “plan hatched In Washington" to ham per him, and ousted State Treasurer George Hamilton and Controller Gen eral William Harrison for refusal to honor treasury warrants. Hamilton removed all the money from the treas ury vault to a bank. Three state de partments provided funda for tem porary operation of fiscal affairs. Then depository hanks, the United States post office and the state’s at torney general took a hand. Mall ad dressed to the suspended officers was Impounded, cutting off the flow of ta* remittances; all but one of the depository banks refused to honor state checks pending a court decision on the legal status of do facto offi cials; and Attorney General M. J. Yeo mans, once cited by Talmadge as an authority for his actions, declared his position had been misinterpreted. D EATH took from the scene two men prominent In national life— Albert Cabell Ritchie, governor of Maryland for four terms, and Henry Latrobe Roosevelt, as sistant secretary _ of the navy and distant cousin of the Presi dent. Mr. Ritchie was a - leader among con servative Democrats, from the start a de termined foe of na tlonal prohibition, and in 11)32 a candidate for the Presidential nomination by his party. Though beaten out by F. D. Roosevelt, he had the sat- tsfactkfh of seeing his repeal plank put Into the Democratic platform. Of late he had been an outspoken critic of the New Deal policies, for be waa a champion of state rights. Henry L. Roosevelt was the fifth member of his family to serve as as sistant secretary of the navy, and In recent months be bad played an In creasingly Important part in the af fairs of the department, acting as secretary during the illness of Secre tary Swansea He was a student In the naval academy class of 1909, but left before graduation to become a second lieutenant la the marine corps, in which service he rose to the rank of colonel. P OLITICAL conditions in Puerto Rico, notoriously unsatisfactory, may be rectified as a result of the as- sassirutflon In San Juan of E. Francis Riggs, chief of the Insular police, and a district police chief. Riggs, a former United States army colonel, was shot by two Nationalists; two hours later District Police Chief Francisco Velez N. Ortiz attempted to put down a Na tionalist riot at Utuado and was killed. Gov. Blanton Wlnahip announced that a full Inquiry Into the Incidents would be energetically pushed. Deplor ing the slaying of Riggs as “dastardly," he asserted a revival of capital punish ment and a ban against carrying of firearms, being urged upon the legis lature, would prevent such crimes. The assuasins of Riggs were caught and admitted the killing, saying it was In vevenge for the Rio Pedras “massa cre" in which police killed four Na tionalists lasl November. While being questioned, the murderers, the police said, reached for guns and were shot to death. S ENATOR NYE of North Dakota Is determined that the war profits hill devised by his munitions commit tee shall he brought up for considera tlon at this session. Indeed he more than threatens a filibuster to bring this about, If necessary, to get the measure out of the*hands of a finance subcommittee which is headed by Tom Connnlly of Texas, one of Nye’s bit terest opponents. The Nye bill provides for stiff taxes on earnings and virtual confiscation of Individual income above $10.1)00 a year In time of war. In addition it would empower the President virtual ly to conscript Industrial leaders to maintain production of essential war supplies. D evelopments in Washington lead to the belief that the Cope land ship subsidy bill has been aban doned. Word came from the White House that the Presi dent, although he initiated the princi ples of the measure, would not press for Its passage; and Sen ator Royal S. Cope land, whose commerce committee approved the bill which waa a part of the adminis tration program. Is so Irritated that be may Sen. Copeland Senator Guf fey of Pennsylvania has prepared a rival measure, not yet Introduced. Shipping interests have given warn ing that new construction for foreign trade will continue to be paralyzed by uncertainty and lead to additional In sistence by the Navy department on the building of Its own auxiliaries. C APT. ANTHONY EDEN, British foreign minister, stood up In the house of commons and warned the world that recurrence of the World war was Imminent and in his opinion could not be averted except by a sys tem of collective security “embracing all nations In an suthority which Is unchallenged and unchallengeable.” Eden impressed upon members of the parliament the difference between a [K)licy of ^collective security and one of encirclement, such as the “ring of steel” which Germany complains Is being forged about her by France. “The British government will have no lot or part In encirclement,” Eden said. U NEXPECTEDLY revolting against administration direction, the house voted dowrt. 172 to 104, the hill to exempt from state and local taxation bank slocks held by the Reconstruc tion corporation. A similar measure passed the senate 38 to 28 the day be fore. The defeat was surprising be cause the measure had been unani mously supported by Republicans and Democrats on the house hanking com mittee. Democratic leaders expressed the belief that the measure would not l»e revived. The legislation waa written aftet the Supreme court held In a Mary land hank case that the stocks held by RFC were subject to taxation. M USSOLINI had an ambitions plan for a five-power agreement that would embrace Italy, Germany, Aus tria, Poland and Hungary. But when It was submitted to Hitler he de- cllned^to enter the combination. How ever. the reichsfuehrer, it Is said, told Mussolini Germany looks with sym pathy on the stand Italy has taken. Hitler pointed out that Germany Is at present economically and militarily weak and needs a breathing spell to recruit her forces. .He cannot there fore do anything at present that Is likely to draw the hostility of France and Great Britain, hut he vvlll main tain an attlmde of benevolent neu trality toward Italy. IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL S UNDAY I chool Lesson By R*v. P. B. FITZWATER. 5. Bt; Member of Faculty. Moody Bible Institute of Chlcuro. * C Western Newspaper Union. Lesson for March 15 . JESUS teaches" his disciples TO PRAY LESSON TEXT—Luke GOLDEN TEXT—If we ask anything according to hie will, he heareth us.— I John 5:14. PRIMARY TOPIC—When We Pray. JUNIOR TOPIC—Teach U« to Pray. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC—What Jesus Saye About Prayer. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—Why Should We Pray? Prayer is a matter which ought to be of great concern to every believer, for, “The Lord is nigh unto all them that call upon him, to all that call upon him In truth. He will fulfill the desire of them that fear him; he also will hear their cry, and will save them" (Ps. 145:18, 19). There was something about the praying of Jesus that so Im pressed the disciples that they request ed him to teach them to pray (Luke 11:1). May everyone of us enroll at once In the -school of prayer with Christ as our Teacher. In response to the disciples’ request. Jesus set forth the following principles of prayer. I. The Right Relationship of the One Praying (v. 2). 1. Filial—“Father.” The suppliant In prayer must be a child of Cod. God’s gifts and blessings are for his children. This relationship can only be entered Into through regeneration. Not all men have a right to say, “Our Father,” when addressing God. Only those who are children of God by faith In Jesus Christ can so address him. 2. Fraternal—“Our Father." God has many children. His children are bound up together In nature and In terests. Even in our secret prayer we should address him as “Our Father," which Is a recognition of the Interest of others alongside of ours. II. The Right Attitude In Prayer (v. 2). 1. Reverent adoration—“Hallowed be thy name.” As children we have certain rights and privileges, yet holy reverence becomes us. . .. 2. Loyalty—“Thy kingdom come." When praying to God we should come with a spirit of loyalty which cries out, "Thy kingdom come." We should not only receive him as the Ix>rd of our lives, but should loyally labor with him in Inducing others to submit to him. 3. Submission—“Thy will be done." We should have no will of our own regarding the rule of God. W’e should let him direct us In all things. III. Tha Right Spirit in Prayar (vv. 3-8). 1. Dependent faith—“(Jive us this day our daily bread” (v. 3). We should realize that not only bread, but life Itself is ours M> enjoy because of him and he is able to do for us “exceeding abundantly above all that we nsk or think.” 2. Penitence and love—“Forgive us our debts” (v. 4). We should come to him realizing that we have sinned, and cry out to him for forgiveness. Our heart should he so filled with love for others that we will forgive those who sin against us, as God has so willingly forgiven us. 3. Holiness and caution—“Lead us not into temptation" (v. 4). Because we are God's children, and realizing the depravity of our natures and the consequent tendency to practice that which displeases him, we should shrink from that which, if Indulged In, would dishonor him, and earnestly cry unto him to lead us not into the place where we would likely fall. 4. Intercessory (vv. 5, 8). The man who asked for bread did not ask for himself, but for a friend. Prayer which pleases God is unselfish in its re quests. 5. Pei severance (vv. 7, 8). Though the friend refused at first and offered excuses, because the one making the request would not take “No” for an answer, lie arose from his bed and gave him as many as he needed. Pray er pleases God and gets results. IV. Encouragement to Pray (vv. 9-12). 1. God’s promise (vv. 9, 10). True prayer cannot fall of an answer, be cause God definitely promises that. “Every one that asketh receivetli; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh It shall be opened." 2. Example of an earthly father (vv. 11-13). No father will give a stone to his son who asked for bread, nor a serpent instead of a fish, nor a scorpion Instead of an egg. God is In finitely more willing to answer the prayers of his children than earthly parents are to give good gifts to their children. V. Tha Tru* Goal of All Prayer (v. 13). ^God’s best gift is himself In the per son of his Holy Spirit. AH those who practice the principles which Jesu% taught In this model prayer shall ex perience the blessing of the Holy Spirit. • ■ <y An Inner Life A man who has no inner life Is the slave of his surroundings, as the barometer is the obedient servant of the air at rest, and the weathercock the humble ser^int of the air In mo tion.—H.
