Taxation without representation caused a tea party. Now-a-days we can’t even afford the tea to have a party. It cost the United States $600,000 to participate in the London Economic Con- ference. The treasurer most probably charged that sum to publicity. “Some men don’t know when they are well off.

The “Blond Tigress” of Chicago will lose-a few of her wild notions during the next hundred and ninety-nine years of “eage” life she is facing. Still, a few more sentences like this will tend greatly to banish crime. ‘One other participant will be terribly “shocked” when they sit him-in the hot seat, STILL ENTHUSIASTIC As the NRA campaign entered the middle of its third week, enthusiasm was undiminished, pledges continued to pour in. While troubles have put in their ap- pearance and the campaign is obviously touching its most crucial point, spokesmen are as confident as ever in forecasting re- markabie results, * The NRA blanket code has usurped the place of the trade codes in the news. The latter, however, will probably be in operation longer than the NRA, and ‘the law, instead of public opinion only, is back of them. It is an open secret that the gov- ernment is dissatisfied with the trade code progress and is making every effort to speed matters up. portant, lumber, was thrown out when first sent in. Now the president has signed an approved lumber code which is expec- ted to do much for the industry and its employes. Minimum wages range from 23 cents an hour in the south to 40 cents in the north and west, with a 40 hour work week which may be extended to 48 hours at seasonal peak. An agéncy known as the Lumber Code Authority, Inc., is given the job of protecting price levels and controlling.pro- duction. Every operating company will be given an allotment, and production quo- tas for various divisions of the industry will be arranged on the basis of consumption, including anticipated export demand. Sel- ling price is never to be allowed to drop be- low the cost of production point. Un- ‘derseiling will be illegal. The agreement is designéd to increase lumber and timber employment by 115,000 men. The electric industry is operating un- der a temporary code, until the Edison In- stitute can obtain approval of a permanent agreement. Steel and automobile indus- tries are bones of contention. “ Code offi- cials are struggling with the problem; if worst comes to worst the government will make up codes, force them on the indus- tries whether they like it or not. It’s a case where they won’t take “no” for an answer. MORE RAILROAD LEGISLATION There is already talk of.further trans- portation legislation to be considered when Congress convenes again. It is an open secret that Mr. Roose- velt’s reeently passed bill does not near- ly go so far as he intends. It is simply a start. It recognizes a fact of the utmost importance—that the railroads are one of our most important industries, that they have suffered extremely from depression, that even in times of prosperity they were perplexed with difficulties, and that their salvation is vital to recovery. Its principal purpose is to promote highey railroad ef- ficiency, through consolidation of com- peting lines, and the elimination of dupli- cate facilities. Once this is done, the way will be cleared for attacking the greatest prob- jem -of all—unfair competition, much of which stems from government. subsidized carriers. Barges ply theitax-built ‘water- ways—creating deficits to be made up by more taxes, and taking business that would otherwise go to the. rails. Buses ‘and trucks operate on the publicly-bailt highways; unregulated by the Federal government, which so stringently controls ‘the railroad »| industry. And so it goes. “~ Yes; a start-has been made} ‘but much remains to be done. The American pub- lic will be watching the future trend of transport legislation with the keenest in- terest. TWO BUREAUS DIE Two famous government bureaus of- ficially died the other day. One is the shipping board which, with its subsidiaries received the neat sum of $3,600,000,000 in appropriations during its life, and had a book value of $288,000,000 at‘last report. Its functions—what are left of them—were ixansferred tothe Department of Com- } merce. The other casualty was the prohibi- tion bureau which came into being in 1920, spent $100,000,000 in 13 years, and was in- | volved in the loss of 250 lives. Most of ; the 1,800 dry agents were dismissed. | Even if repeal goes over by Christmas, it will take 30 days to develop a supply of three-year-old liquor.—Birmingham News.
