MAYOR'S GOOD SUGGESTION ON TRAFFIC COPS When we disagree with the Mayor on a public issue we may be right or we may be wrong. And when we agree with him we still may be right or we may be wrong. This is a queer world for mayors and news- papers. 1t is not likely that run the risk of violent dissent from any- one when we unreservedly commend the Mayor for stating that a traffic policeman in front of the City Hali or thereabouts during rush traffic conditions would be greatly superior to the present system of deaf, dumb and blind traffic lights. Traffic lights no doubt have their place. But to expect them to tak the place of“flesh and blood” di- rection of traffic on important down- town intersections is simply expect- we ing too much. The plea is made that there are not sufficient policemen to take care of trafic downtown and also at the schools during the noon rush. That strikes us as being no excuse at all. | The way out of this dilemma, if such | it can be called, is for the city 10 employ sufficient policemen. On the one hand the city is trying “to give employment to men in or- der to aid them through the hard times. On the other hand there is the plea that the city lacks sufficient | traffic policemen to carry cut the Mayor's ideas. Why not employ Supernumeraries would do. To regulate traffic properly is the city's duty. And the word “properly” does not mean entire dependence upon mechanical invention. a few more? THE MAYOR'S DILEMMA Mayor Quigley was nominated and elected upon a platform that he would not conent to a rdising of the tax rate. He tained this platform Even today, he is said to maintain, he will not consent to a raising of the tax rate. This is a good for any man, and we sincerely hope it may be carried out. We confess to doubt whether it would material- ize, however; and did so from the | start. There must be a reason why the to obtain through Mayor is determined fund for relief voluntary gifts of salaries of city employ: rather than boldly announcing that for this purpos welfare percentages of the money needed might come from taxation. The r son is that the Mayor is anxious that nothing additional be added to tax- - ation if it can possibly be avoided. Money collected from police, school teachers and other public officials—and from the pub- lic—will not come from taxation and will serve the objects Whether the sum thus derived will in view be sufficient is another ‘When one figures on activities necessary to come to the money to qu listens to the Mayor's the extent of welfare one is inclincd conclusion that the be derived from such sources will be ins It is and if money for that will not that is to s agitation and be obtained remains insufficient, peo- icient the Mayor's show, however he fails to obtain cnough the purposes intended add to his prestige that, if after all the discussion, the sum to ple will conclude the ed the wrong place.

As things stand now, and if the situation is as serious as the Mayor paints it, it may still be necessary for the city to make a substantial appropriation. THE LOW DOWN STOCK MARKET What causes stock prices to go down beyond the understanding of even the so-called experts is like- wise beyond our ken. But we think there is something to the assump- tion there has been considerable forced selling by those who have hypothecated stocks as collateral with banks. It is also logical to surmise that the effects of past optimism is be- ing felt, resulting in a realization that stock values in past months did not go to the levels consonant with the actual extent of the slump during the summer. If that be true then the descent of prices during the past week or so must be re- garded as a helated recession not actually having much in common with the present condition of busi- ['ness, which has shown a rioticeable improvement, though seasonable, in certain lines. The speech of former Vice Presi- dent Dawes in London evidently was intended to be an optimistic talk. The effect was directly the opposite. ! The trouble with the speech was it forecast good times too far in the future, when it had been hoped that the harassed public would not need to wait that long. And at any rate, Mr. Dawes, although a banking ex- pert, really knows no more about it than the other writers, editors, editorial writers or experts, financial the general public. THI. BURDEN OF TARIFF PROOF Newly revised rules of the re- vamped Tariff Commission have it that in future the burden of proof will be with manufacturers to show | that they are not receiving enough protection. Chey will’ be required to submit atements of information before in- | vestigations undertaken. Fortunately, “figures and statistics” will not be accepted as bona fide evidence and | there will at least be an investiga- before recommendations are made to the President for action under the flexible provisions of the are at least, their | tion tariff law. Such “investigations” as the Com- mission can make are not likely to be of an improved variety over those in the past. It has been extremely difficult to obtain accurate figures regarding the cost of production of certain articles abroad, and in view of a lack of such statistics it is bare- i1y possible that the figures of in terested manufacturers will have considerable weight with the Com- mission. TIGHTENING GERMAN FINANCES all that Adolf Hitler and radicals may say Despite his irresponsible in Germany about a new revolution and a Third Impire, accompanied by heads toppling the Bruening is |the old stand and have put a new line of zoods in the show windows. The financial program an- nounced by the chancellor seems to be a well-directed effort to pull the Republic out of the monetary slough; and it must be admitted by observer that the method to be undertaken is scien- | tific and consonance with the needs of stability and sound govern- in blood-soaked sand, firm till doing business at newy | every impartial in ment. Further than that, as the Chan- if the Reichstag—in 107 | cellor hints | which the F | bers and may possibly form a ma- | jority through coalition with other parties, notably the Communists— | doesn't Keep step with the procecd- scists have mem- ings as devised he can very well turn on in the Constitution provisional dic- | to the provis | which allows the tatorship to continue. | The framers of the |at Weimer seem to have been wise heads; they must have foreseen 1rhm\'ulhr»s such as the present, when Constitution dictatorial powers needed to be ap- plied to get somewhere in a nation not yet eniirely accustomed to demo- cratic government | The Germans intend to make un employment self-supporting unde: this new plan. That most assuredly is something to examine with inter- st. It requires no clude that in a nation where unem- genius to con- | | ployment is heav to the unemployed would public a system of state h The taxes upon those drain Germans intend make a upon funds to levy sufficient at work to take care of those and Thau th although out of work think, method families who ar is a bett ystem, we n | Mayor Quigley's the Mayor is endeavoring to do the same thing without a law and in an indir way One of the hard knots in German finance has been the system where the payme by federal government make: nts to state treasuries. This it states of the but | them to make iakes it possible for the constitu- | ent | less taxe: it has encouraged unwise expenditures on public improvements and other “luxuries,” and to such an extent of Hindenberg and | their | Republic to levy | er Gilbert, once warned that some- thing drastic needs to be done to avold the extravagance within the states with federal funds. It is now said that even Mr. Gilbert did not suggest anything as drastic as the new financial program being insti- tuted by the Chancellor. Just as Mayor Quigley has been trying to lift burdens from home owners, so the new financial pro- gram purposes to lift tax burdens from industry and farming; and to’ this end farms worth less than $5,- 000 will be exempt from taxation al- together. That, we are inclined to think, is quite an original contribu- tion to taxation history. In our coun- try such a procedure, if done direct- ly, unquestionably would be desig- nated as claes lcgislation by the Supreme Court and nullified as un- constitutional. DARROW AND “PUBLIC ENEMIES” Those who have found it difficult to follow Clarence Darrow in the past are having increasing difficul- ty in understanding his latest exit from retirement in Chicago, where he has burst forth as a staunch de- fender of “known gangsters” whom | the city is seeking to drive out of the racketeering stronghold under a | vagrancy iaw as “public enemies.” Mr. Darrow, appearing in court in company with other distinguished lawyers, calls the campaign of the city, through Judge John H. Lyle, an “outrage.” If it mary action against persons whom the city regards as known public enemies then it is equally an out- rage to be too particular regarding the niceties with which their activi- | ties are prevented. Surely, it is at least an outrage to have public| decency and security continually flouted, as has heen the practice in | Chicago. Mr. Darrow doubtless thinks that the city, before it jails public enc- mies vagrants, should go aboul it in the legal technical way of proving serious charges. This is ex- actly the legal process that has been a sport of the gangsters, one which has received their contempt. They have become adepts at defying | | the law because they have come to | understand the law and its techni- | calities, its lawyers fighting over | pin points and its judges giving | | criminals the benefit of many | doubts, offer no menace to their illegal rackets and their consistent in is an outrage to take sum- murders. In spite of everything Chicago has | made up her mind to rid herself in | |a measure of the excessive number of public enemies within its borders. | It is regrettable that such a brilliant mind as that possessed by Mr. Darrow cannot help rather than | hinder in the process; but by all practical methods of reasoning it should be done. | ROOS! T What gives more DOUBLE ARD to the New York campaign piquancy than to | any other being carried on in the | various states is the likelihood that | if Mr. Tuttle defeats Governor { Roosevelt the latter's chances for | the Democratic nomination to the presidency may go glimmering. Mr. Tuttle, however, has a hard | row to hoe. The handicap incident to the slump is considerable in itself; and the drys seem determined to set up their own ticket in revenge for their treatment by the Republican convention in refusing to go to the polls with their prohibition ideals. Yet Mr. Tuttle's chances are bet- ter than had the Republicans heark- ened to the drys and adopted a dry | platform. In such contingency | their chances in New York this year would have been like a cipher a without a rim. ALL OF US AND THE SERIES Today, weather permitting, the | big noise starts. Everybody in the least interested in national earth- | auakes—at least mental earthquakes —knows what it is all about. Every- | | body has read as much as they need | | to know about the contending states- | men of the diamond who will meet | lin Philadelphia to begin the annual | conclave as to which galaxy of pro- fessional baseball players—thos | trom st. Louis or those from Phila- delphia—are to be the champions of | the world, or indeed of the universe. Our bet is that—Well, as we were | saying, the startling in | haps a record or two will be smash- | ; ed. | The only kick we have to deliver | is that the rumpus sadly interferes ! with connected thought upon other 1t is more difficult instance, to es promises to be | its brilliancy, and per- | weighty topics. for us, for write an article, an editorial, or whatever th . about Mayor Quigley's ¢ lack of some- the control of 1dministration or the ing or other street traffic at such a time. Just as | in of | | & get down to a connected line hought and begin putting down sentence supposed to be as good if i not better than any of its fore- | runners, along comes a shout and some crazy loon yells that So-and-so | has made a home run; or perhaps. | What' This is disconcerting, to say the Added sad fact that the weather some- during the World -his-name has struck out. s to that contingency is | the times is cool {light frost in | ported from the Ohio Series and at least one of the win- dows of the Herald building is minus glass while the Playograph is kept in motion so as to edify the throngs that gather along Church street. These cool breezes penetrate right through the building, interfer- ing mostly with what we happen to be doing at the time. Perhaps some kindhearted merchant will loan us an overcoat and a pair of typing gloves while the series is under way. All of which is to advertise to the world that we are fully aware that the World Serles is under way. We deliberately avolded going into de- tails about the chances, etc., of the Cardinals or the Athletics because perhaps we would not agree with all the baseball experts and they might turn out to be right in the premises. All we have to say in closing is that regardless of all the inevitable interferences thrust into our path by the noise, commotion, wind, weather and blah of this w. k. World Series, we intend not to cur- tail the customary quantity or quali- ty of our contributions to this column. If worst comes to worst the Series will have to go hanged; intend to work right through when we can. we it— “HIGH STANDARD OF LIVING” If how much money one spends | on living expenses or the outlays needed to conduct business incldent to living are criterions upon which to base the much discussed “high standard of living"” the Eskimo | families in the Far North who col- lect and sell white fox furs must possess the world's highest standard. It would be pretty difficult to re- gard such folks as possessing a high- er standard of living than Amer- icans; and certainly not it the com- forts and conveniences of life arc included. But the Eskimos referred | to, basing deductions upon what | they expend for luxuries, certainly spend money far more freely than even well-to-do Americans. The reason may be that “easy come, ' g0 applies; but this also applies o Americans and others. That rule suffices for virtu- ally all races with the certainty of the law of “supply and demand” or the law of gravitation. Here are Eskimo who live amid | ice and snow nearly the year around. | But the white fox fur trade is good and they seem to have nine-tenths of | a monopoly on it. Many of the| families have an income of un,cmo‘} a year; and they donm't seem to know what to do with that much ! money. Consequently ~where Uwiri forefathers got along very \ail | without much heat, they import coal at $300 a ton, buy radios at| many times the prices they cost nearer to civilization, and are in the market for any other kind of mod- ern appliances made, except perhaps electric refrigerators. And pay- ing $375 for an airplane ride from the Herschel Islands to Edmonton, Alberta, has become quite an or- dinary feat. There was a time when ea no Eskimo were ever seen in Ed- monton; but if the airplane jaunts continue in popularity there may yet be as miany Eskimo shoppers as there are Indians. The other day, however, we read | a story that the Eskimo were being “ruined” through their contacts with the white race. This can only be ex- plained by the possibility they may take more back with them on their airplane shopping trips than the white man’s mechanical toys. What we are trying to dessiminate as information, however, Is the fact that the mere handling of large sums of money does not necessarily constitute a high standard of civili- zation. This mistake, we think, is| too frequently made and needs cor- rection.

For weeks the Ghetto was The City of Dreadful Night, its steam- ing asphalt an inferno. Almost its entire population drooped gasping on fire escapes. Spindly children in loin cloths sat panting on curbs, too, awaiting the evening free spray from corner hydrants. Lven elders joined in the drenching. Cool nights are here again and the East Side, like fever victims, forgets its bondage. The problems of winter confront them. Penny drink stand proprietors reaped a harvest this past summer. So did the dinky carts dispensing hokey poley and other iced yum- yums. After days there is an unforgettable pi ture ct fortitude and a fine consid- cratior for fellow suffering. Children on stoops fanned listless elders. Girl mothers walked up and down sceking a stirring of breeze for puling infants. From exery win- dew a protruding figure exchanged good natured banter with a perspir- ing leaner across the way. I heard more caterwauling around the Ritz barbershop after the October mar- ket dip. . On one after-midnight of an ex- tfemely sultry night I walked through Central Park with its ghostly array of spread newspapers and fitful sleepers. Police were on guard but not a case of petty thiev- ing was reported.

A group of special writers were invited for the festive occasion with free food and copious free drink. One railroad editor whose career had hitherto been con- fined to incpnsequential squibs un- der the caption “Railroad Notes.” staggered off the train at Syracuse to write his story. He was found the next morning aslecp on the floor by his typewriter. In the machine was a sheet of copy piper upon which he had written this much: ampagne flowed in great numbers: A novelist describes the reputed break between a very uptown mo- tion picture couple—you know the pair they buzz so much about —as due to the husband being “smother ed in an atmosphere of perfection. The leather belt manufacturers will be a-writing me—and I'll not be a-answering them—but it must be broadcast that the reputed best dressed man in America wears suspenders all the time. He is re- puted to have 28 pairs, one for each of his suits. English tailors lack a proper hang without what they call braces. Jack Buchanon is several visits on torrid | insist pantaloons | among (he style tycoons addicted to suspenders.
