Compton, Nobel prize winner, before the graduating students of Massachussets Institute of Technology. "The most important element in national safety is no longer a nation's ability to repel an invasion," said Dr. Compton. "Basic safety now demands making the nation's nat-ion's services so valuable to its neighbors that they cannot can-not afford to fight it." As practical suggestions toward the achievement of peace Dr. Compton said that "political adjustments must be sought through the free flow of goods, of services, serv-ices, and of ideas, and the travel of people," and ''the people of the earth must learn to, know and understand one another, so that men will be encouraged to supply each other's needs, and seek each other's help rather than to master or destroy each other." NO PLACE FOE HARD FEELINGS A publie official, whether he be a U. S. Senator or a city councilman- is, of course, tied to the people he represents. rep-resents. Yet, because the ties are never absolutely rigid, he always has a fundamental chbice. He can choose (1) to express the will of the people, whether thie perfple be right or wrong; or (2) feeling that he is better informed due to liis closeness to a particular problem or that he Has an unusual insight into the problem, press his own convictions, not alone' with fine words, but with action ; accepting the political risks which attend such action. Either course can be defended Some Americans choose to elect their representatives, ' then give them a free hand, believing that their interest in the job and their opportunity to study the problems which' arise at close quarters give them a better opportunity to judge wisely than the ordinary citizen has.' Of course, if such public officials make obvious errors of judgment or mismanagement, mis-management, they can-be removed following their term of office by the expediency.of the vote. . Other Americans choose, and probably with just as much right and justification, to take a constant interest in the decisions of their legislators, and attempt, -of tefi strenuously, to influence the decisions of the law-makers. '....... : ., .... ,. Both systems have obvious evils within them. One may lead to a disinterested public. The other may lead ; to what some claim" we already have : government by pressure groups. . . From our own viewpoint, it is refreshing to see an elected representative of the people stand up for his" convictions and to ignore the political implications of his actions. Too often, we believe, our legislators 'are more concerned with the political implications of their stand on an issue than whether or not their stand is right .or wrong. Certainly, thie use of either system is no license for excitement or harsh feelings. Ample protection is pro.vid- ed within our system of government to insure that th'e will of the people will prevail. . ,v-,;.:.5!

In 1D37 he sobered up. "I realized finally," he says now, "I had two choices slow suicide or salvage." Now the choice he made is paying off not only for the soft-spoken, blue-eyed real estate broker, back In business on a modest scale but for scores of other men and women in this area who are waging the fight against alcohol which he himself him-self managed to win. Trustees Supervise A board of trustees composed of church officials, business men and civic leaders will take over a 22 room home here called Ivy Manor, which Tucker founded two years ago as a non-profit institution for alcoholics and where he has since succeeded in "drying out" at least 150 of the 3A0 addicts who have come there The home, ironicaUy, was built in 1800 by a wealthy liquor distiller. Tucker came to Camden In 1919 with an army discharge and 89 cents. After selling newspapers and clerking in a law office, he foresaw the potentialities of southern New' Jersey real estate as a result of the proposed Camden-Philadelphia highway high-way bridge. Cashing a $100 soldier's bonus and withdrawing $27 savings from the bank, he went into business. busi-ness. His first commission was not cash but a live pig. But by 1S22, through astute choice of options and good bargaining, he had $25,000. Business Skyrockets In October, 1925, his firm with a staff of 600 and offices in New York, Boston, Chicago, Miami and half a dozen other cities did 16 million dollars worth of straight real estate business. By the year's end, business topped 50 million dollars. dol-lars. Tucker recalls that he read the annual report and went on a week-long week-long .spree. He had been drinking in increasing quantities, but this was the beginning of the end. Rumors spread; within a year word passed that Bob Tucker was going broke. He tried to stem the rumors, once staging a $100,000 week-end in New York for more than 1,000 acquaintances. acquaint-ances. But the banks began to close in, and his fortune soon dwindled. Chemist Predicts ini Of Oil Changes in Autis BIRMINGHAM, ENG -Professor Maurice Stacey told the Royal Institute In-stitute of Chemistry that a new compound will permit automobiles to run a lifetime with no changp of oil. Stacey said the compound Is based on fluorine, which eliminates Bydrogen from oils and makes them non-inflammable. Present lubricants have to be changed mainly because they partly burn. With the oil non-inflammable it will be practicaUy everlasting, provided the cars have good oil filters and the lubrication system does not leak, Stacey said.

VA. Chances are three to one that youngsters playing marbles today in India where the game existed some 5,000 years ago are using agates produced pro-duced in West Virginia. An output of more than a million of Uie little glass balls is all in a day's work at almost any one of the nine plants in Uie mountain slate. Sales Manager Ralph UeaUiering-ton, UeaUiering-ton, of the Akro Agate company here, explains that the only other large glass marble producer In Uie country is in Ottawa, 111., and adds: "It's safe to say that 75 per cent of the world's output of glass marbles mar-bles is manufactured in West Virginia." Vir-ginia." An American archcological expedition expe-dition unearthed primitive marbles in India a few years ago. Marbles also have been found during excavations exca-vations of the Ptolemac tombs of Egypt, and early in the Christian era young Romans are known to have adapted nuts and stones for use in their games. Applause Stifles Dying Words of Fallen Acrobat PITTSBURGH. PA. Spectators thought the fall of James T. Fita-patrick. Fita-patrick. an acrobat, was a new stunt. Their applause prevented his final words, as he iied of a heart attack, from being heard. For 40 of his 54 years Fitzpatrick was an acrobat. At a VFW show, he dived over four chairs placed in a line and landed on hi. hands, feet in the air, on a table. In that position he picked a handkerchief from the table with his teeth. Ralph Degenes of Pittsburgh, master of ceremonies, leaned over the man as he fell, thinking it was a gag. He discovered Fitzpatrick gasping for breath. "He tried to say something, but because of applause ap-plause I couldn't hear him," De-genes De-genes said.

Sume of Moostheart's Happy Chililren Mooseheart, III, the famed Child City owned and operated by tlio Loyal Order of Moose for children of its deceased members, became the recipient recently of a $100,000 fortune, bequeathed by the lata Herman J. Englehard, 78, a painter and decorator, of Chicago, 111. Mr. Englehard was well known in his own communty for his kindne? to and love for little children. Although not himself a member of the Moose fraternity, he chose Mooseheart as the beneficiary of all the money he had saved as a hard working laboring man becau.se, au he told his attorney prior to hia death, "I want to help little children." Mooseheart is both a school and home for nearly 1,000 children. It is an entire city in itself, with 150 buildings spread over 1,200 acres of lush farm land in the picturesque Fox River Valley, 35 miles west of Chicago. Nursery, elementary and high school education plus a trade are provided to the students. Mr Englehard's humanitarian gesture is saddened by the fact that he met a tragic death.
