The tradition' practices of statesmanship have been abandoned and in their place the rulers of na-t- , lions employ violent, menacinicwords and the threat of merciless action as aueans of attaizting their end& Treaties and agreements are no longer recognized as controlling ! fluences. The danger In this situation is that the aggressors will pass quickly from one bold enterprise to another, until suddenly some form of general war can no longer be avoided. , Japan is one of these aggressor nation& Only recently Japan announced that she would no longer recognize limitations upon naval construction and would build in accordance with her national needs and purposes. Meeting this challenge. the United States has announced a policy of absolute freedom of sc.. tion in warship construction and is prepared to lay down two keels for every one Japan lays down. - The net result of this policy will prob. ably be the restraint rather than the stimulation of a naval construction race. Compelled to deal with stubborn resistance in China and facing economic distress and so; cial unrest at home, Japan ig in no position to set the pace in the building of new war- ships. Views On.

So let courtesy prevail among our police officers in their treatment of the stranger within our gates and of our own home peopie.

In the gnarled apple tree, a pair of bluebirds are investigating a hole. as width is to be considered Depth for the growing brood. A quiet survey is theirs. Not like the flicker whose drumming on a dead lirab of the tall elm can be heard afar. and Robins prodigiously work with-mudry grasses, plastering their stout nest in the honeysuckle vine. Song sparrows let their bubbling notes blend with the breeze; a twinkling song of certainty that their nesting spot near the old stone wall is located securely against wind and weather. Under the barberry bushes, a pair of white throats vigorously scratching. Planning to move immediately northward but willing to stay for a morning's song or two. From the swampy meadow the flute-lik- e whistle of the meadow lark challenging the April day to keep on shining. A great hawk with majestic circling the blue with rhythmic beat. A flock of purple survey, settling for grackles after a hill-toa moment in the great oak and asking themselves in metallic notes, "Whither?" Swift light chasing the shtidows on awakening hills. Buds of the swamp maple mahogany red. Clumps of forsythia stirring their golden bells in the garden. A dewdrop glistening on a dandelion leaf. Blue scylla quivering on frail stems. Stubby double daffodils holding sunshine. Pennies piercing through the ground with wine red sprouting& s A patch of snuggling purpie faces next clean earth.- The fresh upturned soil of vegetable garden catching sheen from the mounting sun.

But there's a limit to the proportion of the securities which any utility company should be allowed to have in the form of bonds. Bonds could easily be sold to cover future expansion of utilities, provided there was some certainty as to tht ability of utilities to earn their interest charges at least once and provide also a margin for the existing stockholders who hold preferred or common stocks. Why should anybody put "equity money" in utilities when the government threatens compete tion with them constantly?

This breause the federal taxes eat up exactly that amount So the true cost of borrowing Is really in excess of 33 per cent, for, in addition, the borrower has to pay interest and also, az a rule, a state income tax of around 2 to 3 per cent. Even under the proposed Senate tax bill, which eliminates the undistributed surplus levy, the flat tax of 18 per cent must be paid, so, on every. $10.000 borrowed, there must be an additional sum earned 'sufficient to pay an 18 per cent tax before there Is a net income of $10,000. using the 18 per cent tax figure, and adding 4 per cent for Interest to the bank and 3 per cent for state ineorne t2res,...theamountthalwoull have to be earned would be.about $12100, which is very much better than the present law, which requires an earning of about $14.- 182. if you include 5 per cent for the banker, and 3 per cent for state income taxes.
