Four billion gallons of water are

Taggart, of 1009 Lincoln 8t., has
them stumped. In his fish pond this
morning he found a worm-like crea-
ture, about 9 ins. long. 1-112 in. in
diameter and dark brown in color.
The fish seemed afraid of it and
stayed in one end of the pond, young
Taggart said.

No other form of urbanity has
quite the charm as that of an in-

BUT WHAT OF THE
LONG FUTURE?
It slowly begins to appear that the
most immediate, pressing danger of
war in Europe may have been avert-
ed. One hesitates even to write the
words, lest even before they can be
read they may suddenly cease to be
true.
Balanced in teetering scales of
opposed power, the peace of Europe
and perhaps the world hangs sus-
pended. There is equilibrium only
because the forces are now so evenly
balanced that neither dares disturb
the situation lest the scales Up
against him.
This is no peace. This is the mere
absence of military war. while war
scarcely less destructive to the peace
of the world goes steadily on. And i
this war. if not abated, leads in-
evitably on toward military war in
some future day.
All the statesmanship the world
can muster, and it does not seem to
be much at the moment, is con-
centrated grimly on trying to check-
mate from moment to moment the
outbreak of the great conflagration
which all agree must burn Europe
to the ground once it starts.
Let us suppose, as practically all
men and women hope in all coun-
tries, that Europe slides through the
without general war. Is

there no vision beyond that?
If even that bare goal is reached,
what then? Peace will still rest un-
easily on that delicately balanced
point between two giant opposing
organizations of force. For the Ger-
mari-Italian and the British-French-
Turkish-Polish relationships are no
more than military alliances. That
brings us back to 1914. when peace
also poised on such a balance, and
fell.
The world must do better than
this. First, this is no peace. And
second, it merely assures that prac-
tically any war will become a gen-
eral European, then a world war.
Two things must be done if the
world is to breathe normally again
and resume a prosperity based on
decent normal relationships.
First—the arms burdens must be
lifted. For the armed-to-the-teeth
relationships of all great countries
of the world today are strangling
and poisoning them all As soon as
the immediate tensions of the mo-
ment are loosened, a leader must
arise who will offer anew to the
world the opportunity it threw away
in 1919.
Second—the organization of peace
must again be attempted. The
League of Nations failed. Wilson and
Smuts and Stresemann and Briand
struggled in vain for a better world.
Today the League as now' organized
is practically dead.
But the dream of a world organ-
ized for peace Is not dead, and it
will never die.
It waits only for a leader with
imagination and daring and wisdom
and strength enougli to roll away
the rock of tradition, and inertia,
and stupidity.
