Another generation must pass before we shall be able to see the development of a race of robots, or to disprove the supposition made by the Institute of Industrial Wel- fare. Mass production is useless if there are not enough consumers for the products of mass production. It man- kind is to become mere adjuncts to machines, and the latter ceaselessly produce products in such an over- flow as to swamp the markets, what good is that going to do anyone? This being the case, it is self-evi- dent that mass production will regu- | late itself. No mass production in- | dustry will run 100 per cent capaci- y for any length of time when the demand for its products is only 75 | er cent of capacity. But we have had it dinned into our ; ears relentlessly that the luxuries of | today are the neces | row. With increased mess production must come increased consumption | and increased buying power to make the increased consumption a reality. This will be one of the major problems of the next generation. It already is part of a problem today. | | A HINT FROM MR. HOOVER According to Senator Watson, Re- publican leader in the upper house, | told him at a | private conference that he desired to | see Congress pass a tariff bill, and consequence all senators | should discontinue ‘hurling epithets | and handling each other at arm’s | length, but should get together and compromise their difficulties so that the wishes of the chiet executive might be met. Of course, there were some mild | dissenters. Senators who have been | critically examining the schedules | do not seem inclined at this late date to budge many inches in their criti- cism. Obviously, no headway can be | made toward passing the bill until | the House and Senate schedules | have Teached a conference between the two houses, where the final iron- | ing out will have to take place any- way. To pass some kind of a tariff bill | may not be so difficult. The diffi- culty arrives when the Senate is ex- pected to coneyr in the type of bill passed by the }xouse. That is the yub which remains a rub. It seems much to ask of the Senate to relinquish its opposition after such incidents as the | Bingham-Eyanson affair, There is | still room for pessimism for a tariff bill of importance. JURIES AGAIN UNDER FIRE The recent jury verdicts following Gastonfa incidents in North Carolina has again focused attention upon the efficacy of the jury system. | The charge is made that the jury | tion whatever against inflamed | local emotions. The juries in Char- | lotte, where the Gastonia cases were tried, found the outsiders guilty | while at the same time finding it im- | possible to proceed against local citi- zens who killed a woman during somewhat similar circumstances. A similar case of failure of a jury | to convict resulted in Pennsylvania, known as the Barcoski case. In the | latter case three coal and iron po- licemen - who had inflicted fatal in- juries upon John Barcoski, a miner, during a scuffle at Santiago, Pa. | were acquitted of murder by a jury | on September 28, 1929. The verdia‘; brought vigorous protests from the | prosecutor and the press, and the | district attorney who tried the case | said: “This is the most shocking | miscarriage of justice in the history | of this or any other countr: Current tendencies will inevitably change the jury system throughout | the land.
