The Clinton News Record, 1930-04-10, Page 3A Great Victoria By Arthur S. Dteper Time is best measured by those • events which leave a Tasting :impres- •sion, end one 01 these was it luncheon, in the London home of Arthur J. Bal - lour, titan First Lord of the Admiralty, almost fourteen yearn ago. At •tile. table were two sisters of tive First Lord, hie brother; in-law, Mneteu Cham berlain,, then Colonial Secretary, and the writer. Just how I happened; to be Mr. Balfour's guest is of no import- , mice, although the topic we dismissed after the meal was of much interest to- me and to the other American corres- pondents in London, and perhaiis of some little; importance to Mr. Balfour and :the British Empire. In the early spring of 1916 Great Britain had conte to realize that it Was to be a long war; that business could not be carried on as' usual; that ;voluntary eulietment would net sof-' flee; that it might be a good thing to acquaint the rest of the world,. par tionlarly America, with the fact that she intended to light until• the bitter. • end,, and that neutrals were bound to have an - impleasaut time of it. In other words, British propaganda, 'to• use a word which hit the ear, harshly at that time, was not satisfactorily or- ganized, Sir Gilbert Parker, the later. Mr. Masterman and their associates were doing.a big, job, but the special' articles they were getting from Ber- pard Shaw, H. G. Wells, Arnold Ben- nett, Sohn Masefield, Hall Caine and a hhost of others were not 'considered •sudioient. • . Mr. Balfour enjoyed the reputation ;of not reading "The Times," not to ,mention the other organs of British public opinion. In fact, the First Lord was reputed to be entirely indifferent to anything which appeared in the • 'public prints -so indifferent that he ignored the editorials when. lie be- came Prime Minister. He did not hate newspapers, he was completely indif- ferent to them. Most of the talk at the luncheon had to do with some fifty motorcars ' the First Lord lied in Egypt or Meso- potamia or somewhere else in that part of the world which was not at- 'tractiug nearly so muck attention as the region around Arras, Amiens and xpres. Mr, Chamberlain would ad- just his monocle, present an argument and Mr. Balfour would say "No" with apparently es much interest and feel- ing as he -would show in declining a second helping of roast chicken. Mr. • Chamberlain was persistent. He want-. 'ed those oars; nvanted them for ''transports -and he got them, when Mr. Balfour seemed to have grown tired of refusing, Sir Douglas Brownrigg, tate Chief Naval Censor, "Cappy" (Admiral Sir 'Reginald) Hall, the head of the Bri -`'tish Naval Intelligence, and Mr, Masterson • Smith often found Mr. Balfour in the same mood - 'indiffer'ent to subjects of vital in- ,terest to them, a perfect genius in solving problems once he was in- terested, n.terested, contenustitous of details, but childlike in his enthusiasm when .he appreciated that he was 'expected to untangle some diplomatic problem or write a note which would reflect the views of his countrymen. Looking bask over the files I find I wrote this y-•- paragraph after that luncheon four- teen years ago: "I should say that war is the last game that Mr. Balfour would select 'for enjoyment or recreation. He is the antithesis of Von T'ripitz (who died the other day). For forty -odd years Mr. Balfour has been in the ser- tvioe of lits country. He was Prime Minister from 1902 to 1905, and First Lord of the Treasury and leader of :the House of Commons Min 1891 to 1906. 'Unquestionably he enjoys much ;more the preparing of his. Gifford leo- 'tures or a rotted on the famous course of the Royal and Ancient Golf Club at 1St. Andrews, of which he was at one 'time the captain, 'that he does the planning of how to increase the ef- Releuoy of the already efilcient fleet under his control. Mr. Bailout is not a sailor. But whatever he does he 'does well. Now he is in charge of the . [British Navy." Theu followed a few statements re- garding the problem of the blockade. :and the feeling of Americans (it wee ,a year before we came into the war) 'and then this paragraph: ' "All this is preliminary to the state - 'intent that Mr. Balfour is one of the nbest friends and admirers the United :States has in the British goVerument, Ilie is a generous and honorable enemy ',and loves and is proud of all Britain's ;naval tradition. He fights as a gentle- 't<nan and regrets that his enemy re- sorts to gouging and throttling." • It was not until the luncheon was. over and lie had taken me into his Study that avoid was said regarding ,the 'reason for my presence in his ;home, Whatever his views about stewepapere he plunged into the sub- SIi11ull.,.Heros of Scientific..

One understood why 'he was known as "Paiute. Arthur." lie made hie guest feel tent he was doing hiin a real fa- vor. He saw It as at new problem, something iaterestiug, something well worth while doing and he tackled it as he did a ball on tate base line at an age When most men would have been satisficl to applaud from the stands. Then he invited ane to walk from his home to the House,of Colnmoua. At a normal gait the trip should be made in ten minutes, but it took us almost au hour because Mr. Balfour was expounding his view that the• most important development of the war was tr.•toh .fighting, much more important than the submarine,. the aeroplane or gun range. He wore a frock coat, a soft black hat and a pair of glasses attached to a black ribbon. He stopped at the Admiralty, Axelt to make a point; he stopped at the Horse Guards and acknowledged salutes and greetings, but it was plain he recog- nized no one; he stopped half a dozen times more and that despite the fact that his secrstary had found him and was politely suggeeting that he would be late for questions in th'e House. Before tackling the story that day I saw Sir Douglas Brownrigg and told him what I had obtained and that. Mr. Balfour had given me permission to use anything I considered of interest to American readers. The naval cen- sor and I reached a compromise and remained firm friends, but suffice it to say that wartime correspondence would have been a simple affair with Mr. Balfour as censor: His frankness warstaggering; he took one into Isis confidence and one was afraid of one's self. It was Mr. Balfour who was In 0f framing for the g o Rresponsible chic Y the first communique on the Battle of Jutland, which dumbfounded the Bri- tten people and made the rest of the world feel that Germany had won an overwhelming naval victory, Mr, Bat four was clever afraid to face the truth; he had the deepest faith in his own countrymen, their courage and determination, and regardieas of their political views they admired hint in a way they did no other contemporary statesman. As the war went on Mr. Balfour came mora and triose in contact with the press. IIs was 'A. J." in those days -sympathetic, calm, the Gibral- tar of the Cabinet. Some of those who worked with him at the time were fearful that he would either say too much or be conteinpuous. Instead there were fete better'Spokesmeu and none that enjoyed these conferences more -the leading, tricky questions, the matching of wits, the fencing in which words alone score. There is the story of the Cabinet meeting after tlse German attack in 1918, the drive which almost ended in a decisive victory for Ludenderf-a battle which depressed Lloyd George and unsettled Douglas Haig, though both. knew witeer and When the Ger- man spearhead would hit, Most every- one was excited; malty had their "wind-up," but "A.J." was content to say "How annoying." Itdealeed W- and Germany was beaten, though "Britain had her back to the wall," to use Haig's words. ` Some people are always striving for effect, coining smart words and phrases, but Balfour gave voice to his normal feelings, and the reactions of a great '%rietoriau heartened a people who had grown tired, exhausted; doubtful, disillusion- ed. A strong man spoke as las-an- cestors would have spoken and a whole nation responded. There was a challenge. there was only one anti- war.

English flying loan, after: another Yong atay in Africa, where he alas been sir- veyiitg the air routes from Egypt\ lo Cape Town, emphasizes the fact that the: Dark Continent of Livingstone and Stanley ie tieing turned into a,white man's tuoring ground. Progress here- tofore, though steady, has been slow. Roads and -railways have been grad- ually pushed forward, and steamers ply on the rivers and lakes; But if,the rate of advance is to keep pace with modern' ideas it must be accelerated, The establishment of regular air, ser- vices is essential to the rapid opening up of the interior, The British have been leaking care-. fol and elaborate preparations, and the French and Belgians have been actively at work in the western areas. It is the task of the survey party which^;Sir Alan Cobham has left be- hind frim in Africa to improve the British line of communications, As he sees the problem,. it is not enough to run a regular service of airplanes by which the flight from Loudon to the Cape can be accomplished in eight days. It a proper function of the airplane to bring the remotest set- -tlemeuts in equatorial Africa into Mose touch with civilization. Already a center has been established at Nair- obi, which will be a junction on' the main air line, wheeuce light airplanes can be sent off in any direction to stations in the iuterioy, If the development of the African Cont1uent is to be both rapid mad beneficent, it will depend on the ex- tent to which white men can not only settle there, but live a civilized life in remote districts. Today it is the air- plane, and the airplane alone, which can keep them in effective touch with civilization. General Snouts is surely right in stating that the progress of the Afri• can races depends on the wise, co-or- dinated work of white settlers. But for many years to conte white men in equatorial Africa will be relatively few in number and widely scattered. Their work can only be civilizing in the best sense of the terns if thea' maintain their own contacts with .civilization; and it eau only be co-or- dinated by diminishing the obstacles of distance and ljnkiug up tive scatter- edunits, For that the airplane -which makes light of impenetrable jungles, awampe, and suffocating heat -and well-placed airdromes are indispens- able. -Christian Science Monitor. • A TIRED FEELING IN -SPRINGTIME Not Sick, But Not Up to the Marls --Toll Need the i-Ielp Of That Sterling Tonic, Dr. WO - Ramp' .Pink; Pills—They Give New vitality.

It is significant, however, that after thirty years New York has a view building, ordinance which 10 calculated to make skyscrapers safer, yet more econom- ical of construction. Practically every city in the United States bas within the last five years revised its code to a uniformity in so far as steel construction is concerned. In most instances that revision refers alone to the so-called working stress which takes cognizance of the int - proved quality of the 'material itself.' This permits ,the use of a smaller quantity of a better steel. In the case of New York, however, the code re- vision goes further and includesde- finite restrictions upon the design of steel frame buildings, based upon the experience gained during the last forty years, or since structural steel came into use. Now that buildings with eighty or here stories are being built, as is the case in New.. ork, and inasmuch as designs have been filed for. a 100 - storey building, this question becomes of greatest importance. Only Chicago and New York boast of extremely tall buildings as yet. Chicago is planning a revisionof her building code; New York set about it more than a year ago. It is asserted by structural en- gineers that 200 -storey buildings are entirely feasible and will be economic- ally desirable when land values in- crease still more in the urban centres. As yet in but a few American cities huts land advanced beyond $400 a square foot in price.' Therefore they are not so far confronted with the problem that is now facing New York and Chicago, where land has sold for as much as $1,000 a square foot.,But of•course as land values and tax rev- enues encourage the erection of taller and taller buildings, it becomes in- creasingly necessary that their design shall follow the best and safest engin- eering practice.
