The Asiatic League (Page 1.)Never since the nations of the world were classified as civilized and

uncivilized have the so-called civilized countries of the world found them-selves so worried about the future, and well they might be.

The loss of lives in other wars of the past has been great, but the latewar added financial and economic losses to the whites, as a result of thegrowth of destructive science, never before dreamed of or possible.

The new Asiatic league, seriously proposed by the people inhabiting

Asia, would come into existence with all the man power of these peoplesintact, their resources and finances untouched and at least a knowledgeof all the new war scientific developments at their command.

The beginning of the great struggle between the red and white manis in sight and not more than one generation in the future. The red, or

brown, men of Asia, including the mixed races of Asiatic Russia, amountto two-thirds of the population of the world, easily controlled by theirrulers. We must not forget that 40 per cent of the population of Northand South America is red pnd would fall in line with Asia, from whencethey originally came. Only 5 per cent of the people on the American con-tinent south of the United States is pure white. The kaiser told the lateTheodore Roosevelt that he might fight all Europe, which he since hasdone, but when the great white and red war came on the central powerswould stand with the white people of the world. The European-Asiatlcwar may some day be the factor that unites Europe again. The UnitedStates, on account of the red blood in Mexico, Central and South America,can not keep out of this war, and it will be the last war for centuries, be-

muse when it ends either white or red will control the world. No doubtPresident Wilson had this all in mind, as he is a great student of worldhistory, when he proposed the league of nations, and, by taking in Japan,hoped to put off the day until the nations of the world became so civilizedthat they would live in peace with each other.

The black races of Africa, over 150,000,000, are not likely to take anypart In the white and red war. because they always have received bettertreatment from the civilized whites than from the half-civilized red races.—W. D. Boyce in the Saturday Blade, Chicago.

The Brain(Physicians last October diagnosed President Wilson's illness as cerebral '

thrombosis, which affected his left arm and leg, “but at no time was hisbrain power In the slightest degree abated," explains Dr. Hugh H. Young,one of the doctors. ""As to his mental vigor," the physician adds, “It Is sim-ply prodigious.")

The brain is a kind of automatic switchboard, enormously complex,that determines what muscles and glands will be stirred to action by thedifferent sights, sounds, smells and other impressions that are made uponit through the senses. And so it contains various "sensory” and “motor”areas—a “visual center" at the back, through which iihpressions from theeyes must come, if they are to affect one’s conduct; an “auditory center’’ ateach side, connected with the ears; a center for smell, burled under thesurface of the brain behind the nose, and a whole series of sensations oftouch from the different parts of the body. These last lie just behind thefissure of Rolando, which slopes downward and forward from the top of thehead; and right in front of them are the “motor centers,” through whichthe currents go that move legs and feet, arms, hands, fingers and tongue toorderly and useful action.

If we suppose that a current going through one series of nerve cellsand fibers feels a little different from a current going through any other(and there are thousands of millions of them), we can describe a thoughtas the kind of complex feeling that one has when a nervous current istraveling along any particular combination of paths, whether a person isreally acting or only rehearsing an act.

V Thus thought and action are intimately connected, and it is possibletK understand how a blood clot, or “thrombus,” in xthe brair can sometimesinterfere more or less with both until it is absorbed or anew pathway is

nervous currents going to the old destination. The smaller theclot ail'd the further it is along the path toward a muscle, the less it is likelyto interfere with thought.

Curiously enough, the right arm and leg are controlled mainly from theleft side of the brain, and vice versa. And there is a place, well past thecentral switchboards, where fibers to arm and leg come so close togetherthat a very slight trouble can affect them both, while doing Utile or noinjury to the brain as a whole.

The MoviesThe other day one was struck by a piece in a photoplay magazine

which was headed: “If Christ Went to the Movies.” All right, then what?Well, Rev. Dr. Percy Stickney Grant, rector of the Church of the Ascen-sion, New' York, says that Christ would say: “Let my people enjoy thisthing. Let my church employ it. Blessed be that uplifts, restoresand refreshes Ihe weary souls of men.”

Tastes change in the movies. Years ago the “chase” and wild-westmelodrama and the train robbery were the things. Now. the very best ofeverything only suffices, and producers are hunting the world over for it.It is not yet claimed that all the salacious things have been removed fromthe screen. But public taste, which hits the box office, is helping. Andmany believe there is a dawn at hand that will make the movie uni-versally clean. Even at this time 2,000 churches out of 14,000 are usingtbe motion picture. The influence of the screen is, it is fine to record,being utilized in religion.

Says Dr. Grant: “The movies of today are our cleanest form of amuse-ment. They are well censored and morality and right prevail.” Tasteshave changed. What pastor would have cared to say that ten years ago!

Never Too OldThe other day a young fellow strolled into the government land office

at Madera, Cal. lie had come from O’Neals, twenty-five miles distant, thatmorning, and intended to return that afternoon. He applied for 160 acresof land as additional to a homestead entry perfected thirteen years ago.

“The land I’ve got,” he explained, “isn’t enough to keep me busy.There’s need for more food, and I’m going to do my bit toward producingit.” He gave his name: James Smith.

“Your age?” inquired the land office man.“I was 103 my last birthday,” the applicant replied.There you are! A young fellow—only 103—so young in ambition and

so imbued with the work idea that he’s willing and anxious to tackle abrandmew homestead entry when past the century mark. Anyone whoknows aught about homesteading lands knows what a tremendous job thisyoung fellow is facing. But nobody knows it better than hd.

Honestly now, doesn’t it make you feel like taking off your hat ik JimSmith of O'Neal*? 1 V

WILSON-LANSINGLETTERS PUBLIC

(Continued From Page One.)

portance like this the only wise courseis a course of perfect candor, where per-

sonal feeling Is as much as possible leftout of the reckoning. Very sincerelyyours, WOODROW WILSON.

Robert Lansing, secretary ofstate.

Expected to Resign

The Secretary of State,

Washington, Feb. 12, 1920.My Dear Mr. President—I wish to

thank you sincerely for your candid let-ter of the 11th In which you state thatmy. resignation would be acceptable toyou, since it relieves me of the respon-sibility for action which I have been con-templating and which I can now takewithout liesitatior, as it meets yourwishes.

I have the honor, therefore, to tenderyou my resignation as secretary of state,the same to take effect at your con-venience.

In thus severing our official associa-tion, I feel, Mr. President, that 1 shouldmake' the following statement, which Ihad prepared recently and which willshow you that I have not been unmind-ful that the continuance of our presentrelations was impossible and that I re-alized that it was clearly my duty tobring them to an end at the earliestmoment compatible with the public in-terest.

Elver since January, 1919, I have beenconscious of the fact that you no longerwere disposed to welcome my advice inmatters pertaining to the negotiations inParis, to our foreign service, or to in-ternational affairs in general. Holdingthis view, I would, if I had consultedmy personal Inclination alone, have re-signed as secretary of state and as acommissioner to negotiate peace. I felt,however, that such a step might havebeen misinterpreted, both at home andabroad, and that is was my duty to’causeyou no embarrasment in carrying for-ward the great task in which you thenwere engaged. Possibly I erred in this,but If I dkl it was with the best mo-tives.

best wishes will-always follow you, andit will be a matter of gratification to mealways to remember onr delightful per-sonal relations. Sincerely yours.

(Signed) WOODROW WILSON.Hon. Robert Lansing, Secretary of

State.

Emil Ebner Says Capacity ofPlant Will Be Doubled.

The Indianapolis Varnish Company,fifty years old today, will continue togrow, Emil Ebner, president, told sales-men and officials of the company at adinner at the Clnypoo! hotel last night.He said the capacity of the plant willbe doubled in the spring.

Modern construction willbe used throughout. The company willopen offices and salesrooms in St. Louis,Mo., as a part of its program of ex-pansion.

The company was founded Feb. 14,1.870, by John Ebner and Andrew Kra-mer. Mr. Ebner became, head of a cor.poration formed in 1893 after the part-nership was dissolved, and upon hisdeath in 1908 Emil Ebner became presi-dent, William F. Ebner, vice president;Bertha E. Ebner, secretary-treasurer, &r>dFrank and Edward J. Ebner, directors,all of them being children of John Kb-ner.

Two employes present last night wereCharles A. Eeklin and John M. Myers,in the sendee of the company thirty-five and twenty-five years, respectively.

James M. Ogden NewHead of Y. M. C. A.

49 WAYS TO SPELL NAME.A girl clerk in the bureau of war risk

Insurance finds from the card index flicsof Uncle Sam's' fighters that the name"Aloysius” Is spelled in forty-nine dif-ferent ways and ‘'‘lgnatz” in eighteenways. ,

When T returned to Washington in thelatter part of July, 1919, my personalwish to resign had not changed, butagain I felt that loyalty to you and myduty to the administration compelled meto defer action, as my resignation mighthave been misconstrued Into hostility tothe ratification of the treaty of peace, orat least into disapproval of your viewsas to the form of ratification. I, there-fore, remained silent, avoiding any com-ment on the frequent reports that wewere not in full agreement. Subsequently,your serious illness, during which I havenever seen you, imposed upon me theduty—at least I construed it to be myduty—to remain in charge of the depart-ment of state until your health permittedyou to assume again full diioction offoreign affairs.

Relieving that that time had arrived, Ihad prepared my resignation, when myonly doubt as to the propriety of placingit In your hands was remove<T~by yourletter indicating that it would he en-tirely acceptable to you.

I think, Mr. President, in accordancewith the frankness which has markedthis correspondence, and for which 1 amgrateful to you. that T can not permitto pass unchallenged the Imputation thatin calling into informal conference theheads of the executive departments 1sought to usurp your presidential au-thority. T had not such intention, nosuch thought. I believed then and T be-lieve now that the conferences which wereheld were for the best Interests of youradministration and of the public thatthe conferences were proper and neces-sary in the circumstances, and that Twould have been derelict in my duty hadI failed to act as I did.

I also feel, Mr. President, that candorcompels me to say that I can not agreewith your statement that I have tried toforestall your Judgment in certain casesby formulating action and merely ask-ing your approval when it was impos-sible for you to form ,an independentJudgment because you had not had anopportunity to examine the circum-stances with any degree of independence.

W. L. Douglas has demonstrated thatthe trick one follows is of less impor-

tance than the diligence and enterprise

with which it is followed. Before hisday no American had ever become a mil-lionaire making shoes. Shoemakers wereusually poor men, doing business on apnny scale.

Douglas, at the age of 31, after having

been bruised and buffeted on the stormy

sea of experience, set out to become “thegreatest shoemaker in the world."

He did a revolutionary thing. In 1883he began to advertise systematically, per-sistently, extensively. Advertising then,however, was not always taken seriously

by the public.The first results were discouraging.

Douglas paid out more money than theincrease in returns justified. But IV. L.

Douglas was not ono of that large army

who expect strong, healthy plants toshoot up the moment seed is sown on theground. He was not building for today,but for tomorrow, for the time whenhis portrait and name on a pair of shoeswould recommend these shoes to men andwomen throughout the world, ne couldstand the scoffing of those ignorant ofhis ambition and barren of his vision.His confidence never weakened, his perse-verance never wavered. He adhered to

his well considered course, spending3250.000 and more annually on advertis-

ing the shoes whose maker was notashamed to stamp with his own portrait.

With what results?The 30x60 foot one-room factory, which

was started on less than SI,OOO capital,with five employes and an outputof forty-eight pairs of shoes a day. hasdeveloped into one of the manufacturingand mercantile wonders of the presenttime. Its capital is not SI,OOO, but $3,-500,000; it occupies not one room, but agroup of spacious buildings covering300,000 square feet, its output it not afew pairs a day, but over 5,000,000 ayear (17.000 pairs per day) worth over$20,000,000. The force of five workershas multiplied Into an army of 4.000workers. The leather consumed is nottransported under the arm o£ the owner,for it comprises the hides of 1.560.U00animals yearly. Nor does the proprietorpersonally sell the whole output, for itwould fill every car of a train six andone-half miles in length. The “accessor-ies” called for annually Include over 1,-000,000 yards of doth and 15,000 milesof flax thread. A monument over 500miles in height could be raised werea year's output of shoes stacked oneon top of another.
