According to a Teport entitled “Recent Balkan Alignments,” just published by the Foreign Policy Association, there is less explosive material in Europe's tra- ditional powder barrel than at any time in recent history. There could be no more reassuring piece of international news. Two “Balkan wars"—in 1912 and in 1913—were followed in 1914 by the ‘World War, for which a Balkan tragedy, the assassination of Archduke Francis Ferdinand by a Serb, was the curtain- Taiser. ‘The Foreign Policy Assoclation does not suggest that all the gunpowder has been extracted from the Balkans, but it points to the circumstances which have at least made the Balkail states “a far less dangerous factor in the Eu- Topean situation.” This conclusion is reached by assessing the effects of the prevailing world economic depression. In the common boat of financial, in- dustrial and agricultural slump, the Balkan peoples have been driven by the urge of necessity to row in the direction of political and economic co-operation throughout the peninsula. The result is a decidedly réduced likelihood of an outburst of violence which might in- volve all Europe—and America—in an- other general war. Summarizing the developments of the past few years, Elizabeth P. MacCallum, author of the Foreign Policy Associa- tion's report, says: ‘The e; of has standing problem concerning use of seaports seems on the way toward regu- lation; territorial disputes have been settled in tlm;:; every u;e and pro- of | stack would ‘Macedonia is by far the most dificult and perilous of the problems outstand- ing in the Balkans. .The opposing de- mands of Bulgaria' and Jugoslavia, with Tespect the status of Macedonians, create 8 te situation. It will have to be faced by the Balkan conference 1o be held at Istanbul next October and is already engaging the earnest atten- tion of the committee in charge of preparations for s parley from which momentous decisions may flow. ‘Once upon & time Belgrade and Sofia and Athens and Constantinople and Bucharest meant to Americans little more than geographical terms with more of less historical interest. Yet it was only fourteen years ago that armed forces of the United States were making ready to hurl themselves “without stigt” into the war zones of Europe be- cause a fanatical Slav killed an Austrian crowned head in a village of Bosnia- Herzegovina. —————— Killing off the wets is advocated with rash cruelty by an eminent dry sym- pathizer. Such an enterprise sounds easy, but is, in fact, slow, difficult and terrible. There was a time when it was sssumed that all the wets would be dead $n a few years, owing to the prevalence of bad alcohol, both natural and offi- clally adulterated. The theory did not work out, and it is not surprising if those in favor of the death penalty should begin to grow impatient. —_———, Supplies sent to suffering areas have undoubtedly helped some. But their work is not fully accomplished, and there should be more where those came from. ———————————— The work of the census taker has been one of proud satisfaction excepting in instances that made it necessary to compile figures relating to unemploy- ment. Gov. Roosevelt and the Mayor. Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt, it seems obvious, must hear what Mayor James J. Walker of New York has to say in his own defense before he can act properly to remove the mayor from office on the charges which have been filed by the City Affairs Committee. ‘The Governor, on the other hand, can scarcely wave the charges of the com- mittee aside lightly. These charges have been made by citizens of New York too widely and favorably known to be treated cavallerly. It has be- come clear that they cannot be laughed off by Mayor Walker, sometimes re- ferred to as the prince of jesters. The Governor has had them before him for charges against the mayor are proof that they are not engaging in a cheap political trick to embarrass the Governor and the mayor. Rabbi Stephen S. Wise, for example, is not & man to lend him- self to a trick, nor is he blind enough to be made the tool of mere political tricksters. Conflicting reports come from New ‘York, some to the effect that Governor Roosevelt has determined to dismiss the charges and others that no such decision has been reached by him. At the same time the question arises whether the appointment of a legislative committee at Albany to investigate the government ot New York may not give the Governor reason for leaving the charges against ® | the mayor in the air, without action. The Republican leadership has been seeking the appointment of such & committee, and it has been resisted by the Democrats in the Legislature, aided so far by two Westchester Republican State Senators. If a resolution provid- ing for the appointment of a legislative committee to investigate the .govern- ment of New York City were adopted immediately it might give the Governor an “out,” provided he were looking for an escape from a decision in the charges against the mayor. It looks, however, as though the resoluticn would not go through at this time. Sooner or later the lid on the New York situation will be lifted. It may be with Governor Roosevelt's ald or it may be without it. That is a matter which the Governor himself must de- termine. . The New Incinerators. Bids have been submitted and the contracts will be let soon for the Dis- trict’s two new trash incinerators, cost- ing $560,000, One of the incinerators will be built at Thirty-first and K streets northwest, the other at First and O streets southeast. Residents of Georgetown have lodged some ob- jections against the trash plant, but the authorities have assured them that mod- ern trash plants emit neither smoke nor odor and are, in fact, blessings to any community, for which we all should be duly thankful. ‘There has been, however, a strange and disquieting silence relative to the appearance of these incinerators. No- body at the District Building is sure what they will Jook like ffom the out- side. That matter has been left to the Boston architects who draw incinerator plans. And one always hopes for the best from Boston. But a scrapbook, illustrated with pic- tures of incinerators in other cities and discussing in general the science of trash disposal, has come'to hand. A careful perusal of this interesting book will leave no doubt in the most artis- tically phlegmatic of minds that an in- cinerator is about the ugliest of man’s creations. Most of them have smoke- stacks—not your ordinary, modest chim- ney, but a smokestack that rears its head toward the skies and brazenly de- mands acclaim. In a city that takes pride in smokestacks, this is well and good. One can fmagine the boosters of some communities pointing to the new incinerator smokestack with a visible thrill of deep emotion. But the fewer smokestacks on Washington's horizon better. The elimination of & smoke- help. Yet the smokestack the worst festure. One is in- to the conclusion that the aim architect who sits down to draw an incinerator is to get the thing over and done with, take a hot bath and go to bed. Incinerators are necessary, but the aim of those who design the Washing- ton plants should be to make them look as lttle like a standard incinerator as possible. | If the standard incinerator design is used for the bullding at Thirty-first and K streets, no matter what the nature of hat neighborhood is today, another one of the many mis- takes that have characterized Wash- ington’s metamorphosis into the City Beautiful will have been perpetrated. ‘There is a place for everything, includ- ing trash-disposal plants, and Thirty- first and K is & poor place. Will Spring Bring Rains? The “official” arrival of Spring finds the people in this part of the country hopeful for a betterment of the cli- matic conditions to a degree promising relief from the drought that has af- flicted & wide area of the country for many months. The Winter has been exceptionally dry, with little rain and exceptionally little snow. Locally the deficit of molsture is approximately fifty per cent below last year, from January 1 to date. Quite recently showers and snowfalls have given the ground a fairly good soaking, but there is still a serious shortage of water in welis and cisterns and unless April brings rains in its usual volume the season of planting and growing will arrive with the soil in poor shape and with the water supplies of the farmers and the dwellers in small communities danger- ously low. The bitter experiences of last Summer on this score are vividly recalled now that the figures of rain- fall in this immediate area show a shortage. Steady, persistent rains for a fortnight or more, not slulcing rains that flow off rapidly into gutters, sew- ers and drains and reach rivers quickly, but rains that chiefly soak into the soll and find the underground courses into springs and channels, are needed urgently over a wide territory stretching from the northern boundary of Maryland to the southern boundary of Virginia and westward into the Ohio and Mississippl River watershed. e e 8o prolific a writer as Trotsky is never | caught unprepared in a literary way.

There is reason leave & bad taste in many mouths. that have been found to in the government of New York cnd particularly in the magistrates' courts and in the Police Department, for this fear. The returns of the first quarter of the calendar year, the first quarter in fact of the income tax year, are below expectations by many mil- ‘The amount taken on the 19th of March was only $44,178,143, as against $70,662,426 & year ago on that date. The total of collections for the menth on and including the 19th was nearly $100,000,000 less than for the same number of days in 1930.

The Federal strong box may be well filled one month and comparatively de- pleted the next, as exceptionally heavy payments are required. But in general a comparison with the condition a year previous strikes a dependable balance. ©On the 19th of March, 1930, the Treas- ury had a surplus of more than $32- cash ‘made by the Veterans’ Bureau to meet the drafts of the holders of bonus- loan certificates, which have been coming in steadily ever since the pas- sage of the bill over the President’s veto, It is well assured that there will be no acute crisis immediately at the Treasury owing to these conditions. ‘The United States will not go into bankruptcey if the revenues fall below the expenditures and the books show a deficit.

But unless the situaticn changes materially for the better, unless later returns bring & larger volume of income taxes—which is hardly likely in view of the fact that the first week after the “dead line” date for returns and first-quarter pay- ments ordinarily completes the yield for the quarter—it will be necessary for the Government to revise its tax scales at the first opportunity, which will probably be the next session of Con- gress.

It is literally true that the vast majority of us have not the genius to originate or €reate. Efficlent living in any sphere is very largely determined by our ca- pacity to reproduce in our own way the gifts and qualities of others. This is only to affirm what another has said: “I am a patt of all that I have met.” We may have our individual homes and our so-called independent ways of living, but strive as we may, it is difficult, if not impossible, to re- sist the influences that play about us.

Efforts to Lessen Oil.Production Causp Trouble for the Government BY WILLIAM HARD. Ofll is certainly Sooding Washington with trouble. Instead of stilling the waves of politics it is raising a first- class political storm. In fact, it is rais- ing many storms all over the country. In the first place, Secretary of Com- merce Lamont is battling to reduce oil production in Venezuela on behalf of the oll producers of Oklahoma, and the Oklshomans are hooting him for it. They say it is not epough. Senator Borah of Idaho, on the other hand, says it is too much and a violation of the Sheiman anti-trust law.

Secretary Wil- bur, as chairman of the Federal Oil Conservation Board, assures this writer that there should be a compact be- tween the producing States re the conirol of production. Ol and Texas and California, through their State governments, should combine, it would seem, in the Secretary’s view, to deal with the menace of excessive pro- duction; and they should do this with Federal sanction. ‘Thus the thing which would be crim- inal if done directly federally through- out 48 States is to become beneficent and laudable, for solid business reasons, if done by three States with the specific instant blessing of the Congress. ‘This is the equivalent, in economic effect, it is alleged by some legalists, of ealing the Sherman anti-trust law on behalf of producers of ofl. It sheds light on President Hoover's ted hints as to the advisabllity of a modification of that law not only for oll but for all other basic natural resources. Secre- tary Wilbur's ides of compacts for re- straint of production between States be taken as the forerunner of a litical conflict as to the proper ion of the Sherman anti-trust law provisions in general. * % %o It is understood that the Secretary will urgently present his idea of com- acts to a session of the Federal Ofl tion Board here next month must vast opera o | of Chinatown, “may keep & scholar 80| when a multitude of enraged Mid- | interested in the past that he gains little | western oil men are expected to be pres- ent to give national vol - ances l‘:ld indi; nlomvo f’ % e olln::'i" .?n:tm of thomn:lnt & tarlft mf A bargo, and they man; mly cf that > of legislation in the matter lation, n no as he had veterans’ bonus loan which is well known to have “Folks is slow to learn,” said Uncle !nfluence at all.

This dread is not diminished by the ;?pmchm descent urcm Wi n a formidable committee the refiners and marketers of the ofl in- dustry. The producers in that industry have for months been in a condition of angry revolt. Now the refiners and marketers are also mad clear and enraged in rebellion. * k% % Their grievance is that the Federal Trade Commission on July 25, 1929, approved 21 rules for the business be- havior of marketers of petroleum ln.= PR N e XA 3 on year the Federal Trade Commission -nddanl; ‘withdrew its approval of 18 of the 21 rules and rewrote two of the remaining three, leaving only one real- ly intact. -Through the thereupon appointed a committee - by Roy B.

Some observers say that the pomn{wné rices tends to prevent discriminal tween customers and is therefore that it tends to pro- duce conspiracy between marketers and is therefore bad. Again the problem of conspiracy and restraint cf trade arises 16» vex and embarrass administra- on. Commissicner Humphrey of the Fed- eral Trade Commission wishes it to be clearly understood that the action of the commission in withdrawing its ap- proval of the petroleum selling rules was not _suf by Attorney General Mitchell or by President Hoover, but was thou!hc xg) solely by the commis- sion itself, Commissioner Hu.mgnrey evidently feels that the President has enough oil troubles already without be- m?zm“d this one, too. % can be sald in sum that oil men, like all business men, are prone to de- clare that Government should umgly leave business alone, but that neverthe- less the business representatives of the depressed and distressed oll industry are keeping this Government awake nights with their pains and their cries for relief.
