THE LEAGUE COMES HOME
All thin its turn at tht* |a*t. they say. to the place
v hence they sprung.The traveler of the world comes
home 1 - die and buried in the churchyard of the
village where he was horn; the aged, «tumMitig, old man
returns to childhood things.
So there comes now to Fine Hall, on the quiet campus
of Princeton University. the last >ad. battered remains
of the Ia anuti of Nations. The hope of keeping together
some of its economic, financial and other ncn-political
departments still flutters feebly, and so space will be
made for them on trie campus where Woodrow Wilson
once walked and dreamed of ,h better world.
There is something appropriate a'bout that We do
not know for certain but it sterns likely that Wilson,
who while a university pre ii(| Kt was tUso a deep student
ol government, meditated en a better and more orderly
world a* he strode the shady paths of Princeton. He did
not know then that his was to be the leading role in
trying to bring that ideal into actual being. But at Prince-
ion the mind and thought was already forming which
was ¡ate to offer to an eager world 14 points of a war
settlement, the last of which was:
"A general aaaociation of nations must be
formed under specific covenants for the purpose
of affording mutual guarantees of political in*
dependence and territory integrity to great and
small states alike."
It was not to be. This is no time and no place to
weep for the League, nor for the bruised and all-but-dead
remains of it which now come creeping home for sanctuary
on the Princeton campus.
It seems mockery to talk now, as Wilson talked then,
of "the' principle of justice to all peoples and national-
ities. and their right to live on equal terms of liberty
and safety with one another, whether they be strong or
weak."
Czechoslovakia, Denmark. Norway, Finland, Luxem-
bourg, Holland, Belgium, Lithuania, Latvia. France,
Estonia, Bessarabia, all these cry out too loudly today
lor us to hear those other prophetic yvords, "No peace
can last, or ought to i|ist, which does not recognise;; and
accept, the principle that governments derive all thoir
just powers from the consent of the governed, and that
no right anywhere exists to hand peoples about from
sovereignty to sovereignty as if they were property."
The League failed. The return to Princeton is scarcely
more than decent burial.
But can the world afford to forget the better world
order which it was vainly designed to assure?
ARE WE SHORT OF SKILL?
Quite frankly, we can't tell you whether or not there
is a shortage of skilled labor. We, wish we could.
But somebody ought to find out. General statements
come out frequently from manufacturers and their or-
ganization indicating that such shortage is acute or soon
will be. Counter-statements then issue immediately from
unions like the machinists', or from National Defense
Commissioner Sidney Hillman denying any such shortage.
The federal government haw an elaborate system of
employment agencies. Here is a case for co-ordination if
there ever was one. Those who find a shortage in skilled
labor should be put directly in touch/'with those who sav
there is none.
The jobs will then either be filled or left unfilled.
Then the answer will be definite, and we shall know
what to do about it.

CHAPTER X
'J'HE fact that Jean Reynolds had
given him the cameo for Molly
made little difference to Johnny
that night of the Capetown (Ire.
He wandered through the still
streets like a man in a stupor.
He didn't want to see Molly, and
so he went home to bed instead
ot meeting her and Masters at the
Capetown Inn.
It was noon when he awoke.
He went to the mirror and looked
at himself. His face was still
smudged with soot and his eye-
brows were singed. Not a roman-
tic figure, he thought, and tried
to arrange in some logical order
the events of the night before.
Jean had given him the cameo.
He must And Molly and tell her
the good newit. He tried to imag-
ine the thrill of Molly's kisses in
gratitude, but he could only re-
member Molly and Masters sil-
houetted against the red glow of
the smouldering theater.
Jean had said that Molly whs
Interested in Masters. Was she?
Johnny would find out. Then he
would know just where he stood
with her. Did sHe love him or th«
cameo?
At the Blue Whale he ordered
breakfast, then telephoned the
Meltons' to ask about Jean.
"Jean's a lot better, and you
two are heroes. I'm tired of an-
swering the phone and hearing
people praise you, too. Johnny
Regan, when I know Jean did
oí it." ü¡j
"Still love me to death, don't
you, Sue? Well, toll Jean I'm
glad she's bettor."
Johnny bolted his breakfast
and went around to 48 Cottage
•treet.
"Miss Travers and Mr. Masters
left early this tttoraing M? Den-
nis."
;'s the big idea?" Johnny
to say. Then he remem-
that Molly couldn't have
him if she had wanted to.
"What time will Utey be back?"
"Back about supper time, they
said."
Johnny thanked them and went
to while uway the four hours
intervening at the Meltons',
♦s j ♦
JEAN came across the lawn to
meet him. She waved her
"boxing gloves." "Want to fight?"
¡he asked him.
Everyone was talking about the
fire. Johnny didn't answer them.
He dropped on the grass beside
Jean and they watched a croquet
game.
"What did Molly say when you
told her I'd given you the cameo?
I thought ut least she'd call to
thank me for my belated gener-
osity."
"She and Masters have gone to
Dennis. I just got up," he finished,
hoping to close the subject. He
wished she wouldn't talk about
Molly.
"Masters could help her a lot
in the theater. IMlnows every-
body."
"She calls him a wedge," John-
ny said, chewing u blade of grass.
"He's not as hipped on the the-
ater as she Is. I mean he can at
least talk about something else.
He's crazy about antiques. He
was wild about every old piece
1 got for the set."
"Molly says he's particularly
fond of old jewelry," Johnny said
Idly.
"Johnny," Jean said, "you don't
suppose Molly plans to use my
cameo to get something out of
i?
Been
She laughed, too, then, and pu*
one hand, bandaged to elephantine
size, on his. "Ill miss you, John-
ny, after you and Molly arc mar-
ried."
Johnny took the hand In his.
He held it tenderly. "I'm going
to get your cameo back for you,
Jean. I haven't seen Molly yet.
that's why I haven't It with me
now."
He had a pteasant afternoon,
lying on the lawn beside Jean's
deck chair. It was nearly twi-
light when he decided to go home.

VE7HEN Masters' green roadster
w drew up at the curb, Johnny
jumped the railing and ran down
the walk. MoUy was lying back
against the cushion. She was
more lovely than he remembered
her.
"Have a good time?" he asked.
"We missed you last night,"
MoUy said accusingly. "Where
were you?"
"I went home end went to bed.
Slept till noon. Why didn't you
tell me you were <(oing?"
Molly shr-gged. Didn't want
to interrupt your dreaming. All
business."
Masters took a clgaret from a
tooled leather case and said:
"Beautiful scenery up the Cape.
Quaint little town, Dennis. I'm
to play there week aftor ^next."
' And, Johnny, I . , .
"Must be going, my dear,"
Masters interrupted. "Nice day."
He leaned over to start the
motor and Johnny opened the
door for Molly to get out. But
In that brief moment Johnny un-
derstood something. Matters and
Molly. They might uot love each
other, but their worlds were the
same.
"Did you meet any big pro-
ducers?" Johnny asked Molly. "I
assume that's what you meant by
business."
"Not only that, but I have a
contract." She dug in her hand-
bug and Johnny looked at it. tt
was signed by Harry Babbitt, an
ingenue part for the fall show.
"I'm glad," Johnny said. "And
now that all that is settled, I'd
like to give the cameo back to
Jean."
Molly sat down in tha swing
and didn't answer.

sort of wadding present for us.
