How many of those who complain of want of money also complain of want of judgment, initiative, and the like? Benno Pearlman, lord mayor of Hull, England, after an American tour said that American criminals are the best dressed in the world. Why shouldn’t they be; they do a better business than the criminals of other counties, The aspersions that formerly were cast on pork barrel legislation have be- come obsolete and it has become quite re- spectable even in view of the fact that the once diminutive pork barrel has assumed the bloated size of a hogshead.

At less cost you can go to a high altitude and get the same result, but even if mountains or high altitudes were available everywhere who would care to make the physical ef- fort to go on a synthetic souse.- With all the care that is now being exercised against automobile accidents and consequent disasters, the list of deaths in 1936 will reach a sum than that of the preceeding year. In nine months 25,000 human beings lost their! lives in the United States on the high- ways. greater The Irish, even the clergyman there, can sometimes, every cruel in their jok-| ing. An assembly of clergymen was once meeting and it was proposed that ap-} propriate texts of Scripture be placed over the doors of the various rooms. One clergy- | man put over the dining room a text from} the Psalms: . “Here the:wild asses quench | their thirst.” The American people in their wisdom | never will stand for an authority higher j than the Supreme Court of the United} States; it will forever remain what its; name implies.

The act makes it unlawful for sellers of goods to discriminate between cus- tomers in prices charged, and also de- clared it illegal for anyone to ask for or accept such a discrimination in prices. The task of enforcing such a law is an im- possible one in the first place, and the cost of such enforcement, if it were pos- sible, would be enormous, requiring anoth- er army of government executives, lawyers and other employees, Even a partial enforcement of the law would tend to increase ‘the cost of manu- factured articles to the ultimate consumer. Referring particularly to the effects of the law on farmers, Stanley F. Morse, execu- tive vice-president of the Farmers’ In- dependence Council, declares: 2 “As the price of implements and other supplies enter into farmers?’ ’ p duction costs, the result will be to lift li production costs, also to decrease ’ farm} profits through increased costs “oE Sub; plies.” “The real purpose of this and similar laws,” he adds, “is to change the pattern of government to permit control of indus- try, business and agriculture.” American citizens must’ themselves decide how long they will submit to such unwarranted interference with every de- tail of their daily lives as is being at- tempted by the multitude of restrictive laws now on our statute books. AN ANNIVERSARY It was 10 years ago this year that commercial aviation was born. There- fore, it is interesting to see how rapid the development has been in this field. Ten years ago, the first regular com- mercially-operated air mail and passenger carrying airplane lines, was operated be- tween Key West and Havana. In 1930, airplanes flew 95,000,000 passenger-miles; in 1935, passenger-miles totaled 313,410,- 560. In 1930, airmail totaled 7,000,000 pounds; in 1935, it was 13,276,023 pounds. In 1930, air express poundage was 286,- 000; in 1935, it was 3,814,000. Airplanes, 10 years ago, were some- thing new. Public confidence in them had to be created before they would And in these days when many folks ad- vocate governmental operation of every- thing, it is interesting to look back upon the development of aviation—in private hands. {organized and believes that ing costs to consumers through higher food!

Thus President Roosevelt will be- gin to serve his term in just a few days more than two months from the time of the voting. The Congress elected in November will also meet in January, on the 5th, in- stead of waiting, as was the case before the Norris amendment, until the following December, or more than a year after its selection. The amendment corrected an apparent defect in our system of govern- ment and the amazing thought is that it} was not passed sooner.

Whatever individuals may think of her enthusiasm, it is not open to question that civilization is something of a farce so long as a million women die in cildbirthy each year and ten million babies die be- fore they reach their first anniversary.
