WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 13, 1929 THE WEATHER Weather is always of interest; it is the most talked of topic in conversation, and the most sought-after topic in newspaper reading; the weather of the past month and a half has attracted even more than the usual amount of attention. The more than 50 per cent of cloudiness has been noticeable, the Little wind, the intense cold (intense for Kauai), and the continual snow have been remarkable. The professor says, "Cold today." The student's greeting is, "Gosh! It's cool out." The grocery boy binges in with "Some snow, we're having." The taxi driver shivers, "Sure is cold; I know." They are all rather cheerful in their comments. The weather is taken as a matter of course and the next prediction is watched for with interest. Zero weather is noticeable in this territory, as noticeable as 20 below in North Dakota. The damp cold of Kansas is so neatly felt as the much colder, air atmosphere of other sections. It has been years since the state has had such a continual flutter of snow and such an unavoided reading of the mercury. We have a right to talk about the weather, to remark that it is cold, and to argue concerning the temperature. Kansas can be depended upon to have enough variety to keep the weather an interesting topic. HEELIN AGAIN Helfin of Abuaham, one of the most "explosive members" of the United States senate has been exploiting again. This time his dwarf was directed against a monochromatic church pennant which is flown during services at sea above the American flag on United States warships. The prohibition of the ancient custom which has precluded in most navies of Christianized countries for hundreds of years would be abused. Helfin would not admit that the cross is an emblem of Christian faith, but rather an emblem of one faith particularly distasteful to him. To Christians at large the appeal of the cross is divine and not narrowed to one special act. When the church pennant is flown above the American flag, it signifies that an hour of worship is being conducted on board. Surely in that hour it is proper for the flag of religion to fly above that of the political power. Good common sense was displayed when only ten Senate members voted for Helfin's proposed amendment. The senate's action would be interpreted as a stimulating rebuke to any normal individual but to Helfin it will probably only be a good to a man already suffering with chronic prejudice and intolerance. THE SENATE SCORES Again the Senate comes into the limelight. It seems that the legislators evidently wanted to show the public that they know how to do something besides fighting and debating, for they passed 111 bills and resolutions, appropriated many millions of dollars, and conferred rights honor and left; in half a day. Not only that, most of the bills were enacted by unanimous consent. It certainly seems that more time should be given to such subjects as the District of Columbia appropriation bill, the Greek debt settlement, affairs of the War Finance Corporation, the $21,000,000 army housing and air field building program; these and many other important bills, were all passed in this half-day session, at a rate of almost one a minute. No doubt the senators think they must do something to earn their money, so decided to do a week's work in half a day. BIBLE IN THE SCHOOLS The house of representatives of Missouri recently voted down a bill that would have made the reading of the Bible compulsory in the schools of that state. The legislature is to be commended upon its action. The United States is a country of religious freedom, or at least is declared such in the constitution. To force the Bible, the hand book of the Christian and Jewish religions upon the growing children of the state certainly does not make for religious freedom. Several states have declared compulsory reading of the Bible constitutional on the grounds that it should be merely read and not commented upon. However, if the Bible is to be read in the school, it would be better to allow comment. The Bible is a product of the oriental mind. To expect a child of the accident to be able to understand it merely from hearing it read is aburd. If the worth of any book is to be impressed upon the child mind, parts of it must be emphasized and explained to the child. If the Bible is to be read for the betterment of the morals of youth, youth will have to have the relationships of that ancient oriental book to the living conditions of modern occidental pointed out and explained. Thus, reading of the Bible in the schools would accomplish nothing for those who promote it, and would incur the eminence of those who oppose it. EDWIN DENBY The recent death of Edwin Denby removes one more of the participants in the Tentapot Dome oil scandal. While serving as secretary of the navy, Denby allowed the transfer of the oil reserve lands from his department to that of the interior for which act he was forced to resign from his office. It was never seriously suggested that Denby profited in any way by the transfer of the control of the naval oil reserves to the department of the interior and it is believed that his actions were motivated by a belief that it was in the best interests of the country. It is to be regretted that an individual of his high abilities should be remembered for an unfortunate act performed as a matter of routine. A veteran of the Spanish-American war and the World war in which he served as a marine, Donby appeared particularly interested in the navy. His unfortunate retirement from the cabin office should not be allowed to overshadow his former service to his country. Bears Keep Out Burglarss—Headline. Most people would rather have burglarns than bears. The Colorado and Southern railroad is going to offer a three million dollar branch line as a gift to the first comer. One would almost surmise that this is not a very profitable investment. There seems to be no end to novel ideas in advertising. A jeweler has had himself appointed a notary and now advertises free marriages for all who buy rings in his store. After attending 8:30 classes we've reached the conclusion that "When the rol is called yonder we'll be late." A relative of Isaac Walton, patron saint of fishermen, has discovered that fish bite better on worms which have been put on a diet. Now the question is: How are you going to convince a worm that it needs to diet? "Ersatz Preussen." New German Cruiser. Able to Throw 4,000 Pound Broadside Washington, Feb. 13. The cruiser debate now rung on Capital Hill has had a new angle suddenly introduced by the disclosure of details concerning a new type of German fighting ship now building, which have just become known here. The "Grants Pressman", first of a group of four to be built, represents enormously more hitting power than has ever been crowded into a 10,000 ton ship by the naval architects of any other nation. It is not unlikely that the revision of the specifications of this latest型 of "crime" types will have p. 2, he made in answer to this latest stroke of the German authority. The "Frentz Preemer" will carry as her main battery air 11-inch guns in two three-inch turrets, supplemented by eight 5.9-inch guns to repel torpedo attacks and four 5.4-inch anti-aircraft guns. She also carries six 10.7-inch tubes on two triple mounts. The appearance of a ship carrying guns as heavy as 11-inch, in a class where the conventional armament has been 8-million or less, is a peculiar result of treaty restrictions. By the terms of the Versailles treaty Germany was forbidden to build any battlehips or battle cruisers, and the size of such vessels was limited to three-quarter ships, the third of the displacement of modern capital ships. But nothing was said about the edges of the guns such ships might mount. Their small displace- Today's Best Editorial [Science Service] Brooklyn Daily Eagle A meeting of De Valera's acquaintance in New York promptly called to the Lord Lieutenant of North Ireland a letter addressed to her by the lender: "We are accorded by the arrest of Me.

Then, at the Washington conference the signatory powers agreed not to build any cruisers of more than 10,000 tons. They limited themselves also to guns of Sinkhull calibur. These rules will remain in force until 1931. Phone 255 The typical post-pierceur cruiser, as built by Britain, Japan and France, incurs eight-8 inch runs, though only five-5 inch runs are provided for in the *Buller-cruel* call for nine. By saarfishing armour, fire (z-machinery), enough weight might be gained to raise the battery in two hours before it fails. The limit for a 10,000 ton cruiser. The new German ship will be able to throw from her six 11-inch gourds a broadside totalling nearly 4000 pounds, or about 602 square feet. Fight 8-10 gourds, with shells weighing 250 pounds anise, could answer this with a broadside of not an inch over 2500 pounds, and a broadside of not an inch over only 2500 pounds broadside. Thus, broadside for broadcasts, the German ships would have the post-conference crudities outnumbered nearly one-third of the German II class gun in 30,000 yards.

Weight was sured wherever possible by the use of light-metal alarms and the highest grade steels.
