(Not EDITORIAL COMMENT FR NTIERS, PEOPLES AND PEACE (The New York Times) A forthcoming decision by the Coun cil of the League of Nations will deal with letter boxes. The matter appears somewhat less trivial when it is stated1 that they are Polish letter boxes sit- uated in the Free City of Danzig and that it is one more issue involving the, delicate problem of a port inhabited by Germans assigned to Poland for economic reasons. The forecast hasf it that the Council will decide in fa- vor of Poland's claim to th'e right of placing her mail containers all over the town of Danzig, instead of hav- ing the term "port" restricted to the docks. Those who believe in the League'as , an instrumentality for the prevention of war must not visualize it as oper- ating only in crises of the first mag- nitude. No doubt the hopes of a very large portion of mankind are turned to the eague in case the storm clouds ever again darken the Euro- pean horizon with the furious speed of the summer of 1914. But a highly useful work confronts the League in the minor crises that are continuous- ly developing, in the perpetual rub- bings and irritations and festerings out of which catastrophes ultimately, emerge. It has been one of the great outcries against the Treaty of Ver- sailles that it drew frontiers and dis-' tributed populations thus and so when it should have been done thus and so. Yet the "wrongs" done to Germans in Poland, to various minorities in Ru- mania and elsewhere in the remade Europe, could not have been avoided without creating another set of wrongs and discontents. Given the inextricable tangle of ethnology and frontiers in Middle and Eastern Eu- rope, and a definite insurance against war is never to be found in any def- inite, "ideal" ,'frontier arrangement. The real safeguard consists in pre- cisely such work as the League has been carrying on-the settlement of specific controversies as they arise in the spirit of conciliation and commo sense, based naturally; on the major decisions of the Peace Treaty. How the League functions in this respect is severally illustrated in a single day's news budget. German complaints against Polish "excesses" in the repatriation of German sub- jects take on a new aspect when it is shown that the process is under con- ditions prescribed by the League of Nations. Greece, in controversy with Bulgaria about the security oft Greek nationals on the frontier, proposes to appeal to the League of Nations. At . Williamstown the Rumanian Govern- ment is charged with oppressing mi- norities, and inevitably it occurs to the mind that the protection of mi- norities is within the scope of the Lague of Nations. Poland recently made a radical change in her treat- ment of her Jewish subjects under the spur, partly at least, of criticism at Geneva. Whether it is a job of trans- ferring populations as was done on a huge scale between Greece and Tur- key and as is now being done on a sniall scale between Poland and Ger- many; or of protecting populations that cannot be removed; or of recon- ciling frontiers with practical neces- sity and the dictates of justice, it is' to the League that the task ultimate- ly falls. Americans who have been impa.. tient with Europe's physical, political and spiritual Balkanizations and have suggested the too easy' remedy that the peoples of Europe ought to for- get race, language and frontiers will sooner or later come to recognize the immense value of the labors ptr- formed by the League. It is a League that does not ask for the impossible, but works for- peace in Europe with the European raw materials that it has in hand. . THEY CAN'T GIVE MONEY AWAY! (Collier's) Americans who are trying to reform the country's morals, -habits, educa- tion, politibs or other institutions, or to sell, a good thing to many people at a fair price, ought to be heartened, when the job seems long and slow, by considering this fact: A year ago the Veteran's Bureau drafted every postmaster, recruiting officer and veteran's welfare organiza- tion in the United States in a cam- paign to give away two billion dollars insurance to four million men. After a year's work it had the job half done. Today it is still trying to give away a billion dollars to two million former service men and women. Veteran's Bureau officials say that the main trouble is reaching the men and wo- men with the news.'

The point is that we got to hank- ering for a bus, until the hanker got so strong we couldn't resist it any longer, and so yesterday with the ces- sation of our classes, away we went merrily down to look over the auto marts amid the buzz and bustle of Ann Arbor business life. First off we came to an open field whereon -re- posed many anti-diluvian busses. "Haw," says we to the guy, by way of opening the conversation. "Haw, how are the good old cars today?" As we said that we stressed the words right so that he saw the pun right away and laughed heatily. "Not so good!" he 'roared, wiping the tears from his eyes. "Haw, haw haw. Ain't that a good one?" "No" said we, and away we Went. He was too congenial-we would have bought 'most anything from him. Then we came to another field. As we moved onto its confines or some such thing a group of six men looked up at us in a surly manner. We aren't sure just what, a surly manner is, like, but that must have been it. If we're any judge of attitude they were talk- ing over what kind of a blunt weapon they' would use on us. But we were steadfast, and finally one of them rose Bay City, Aug. 6. -- While hoeingj potatoes on their father's farm four miles east of the city Tuesday after- noon, Theodore Van Wert, 17, son of John Van Wert, was instantly killed by a bolt of lightning and his sister, Loretta. 19, and brother Arthur 15, were both seriously injured.

"We were going to look at some of your cars, mister," says we, "But if you feel that way about it why I won't bother you." "Well, go aheadl and look," says he and sits down again. Really we are letting our imagination run away with us. That wasn't what he said at all, and he showed us all the pretty cars and quoted awfully fancy prices, but It makes a better story that way. Well, anyhow,- we went from there to a place which had its ca'rs inside, and there we chanced upon what we wanted. "How much?" says we to the guy after we- had booted the tires around a bit. "Thus and so," says he, rattling the license plates alluringly. "Here!" says we, and drove out be- for he could change his mind. Well, as we said before, we haven't named it yet, and we are always open to suggestions, We hereby start a contest. The person whose name meets with our approval before we have though of one will he given- a nice ride in the aforementioned char- iot, and have the pleasure of our com- pany thrown in as a bonus.

Expedition'Never Mind the Number Yesterday afternoon after we wrote this we went out' of town with Bill c. c. w. w. (congenial companion of the Woods and waters) to fix up a boat blind for the duck hunting sea- son next fall. If all goes well, we may fish afterward. Cheer up-we'll bring you, all a nice fishy wishy some sunny day it it doesn't rain-all of which is more or less ambiguous, but don't you care-*p wrote two papers in rhetoric classes yesterday morning so what can you expect? Nothing, as usual. Ha, ha, beat you to it. Speaking of news on time or ahead' of time (which we weren't particu- larly) did you see the nice story in a prominent Detroit paper about how the Universiy's nice new hospital opened last Saturday? It was' a love- ly story with pictures and everything, and altogether it covered about-a half page. The only trouble with the story was that the hospital didn't open as per schedule, and so the story beat it- self to it. Cheer up, though, and read the story again next week. It is quite likely that they'll get it open this time. They'v4 had locksmith's from all over the state at work, and now they shave a safe breaker down from Jackson to do the work, and pretty soon everything will be Jake. * * *Mi k Late wire reports from Micky show that she is now editing a col- umn labeled "Micky Says" in alluring type, and that the' col is running in the Florida paper cn which she works.
