Wider aot of March #, 1979, Crowding! ‘HERE was a time when the remedy for overpopulation was emigration. The development of America extended that time for about a century. But now it is ended. Unfortunately, some of the overpopulated nations have not found this out. Count Antonio Cippico, town Institute, voiced this demand on the part of Italy. Representatives of China and Japan made the same plea at the Honolulu Pacific Institute. They all over- took the fact that the remedy, even if any longer available, would not now relieve the situation. And they all demand that, of all the weapons at the disposal of peoples, fecund- ity alone shall be unrestricted. Against guns, we are free to use guns. Against economic undercutting, we are free to use tariffs. Against the royalist propaganda of a hundred years ago, or the bolshevik propa- ganda of the present, we may use laws to defend our institutions. But if any people chooses to overbreed, the demand is that nations who do not do so shall turn over to them, unrestricted, their own pas- ture grounds. It cannot be admitted. In the competition of nations the more effi- cient will not surrender supinely to the more fecund. at the Williams- “All peaceful in the coal strike!” heralds a Vir- ginia editor. Yes, indeed. You can almost hear tho strike wolf lying down to sleep full of consumer goat, Helping It Progress LANS for the expansion of air trans- * portation, at first sight, seem exempt from the chief of the costs of land trans- portation. On land, the heaviest cost is for right-of-way, roadbed and terminals. Railroads provide these things them- selves; automobiles have them provided by the public. Either way, we pay for them, in rates or taxes. The air, by con- trast is free. But as soon as you begin navigating _ the air systematically, you find that much of the cost is on the ground. Landing fields need to be larger than railroad ter- minals, with a crew in each, and night flight, without which the saving in use- ful time is more than cut in two, requires elaborate lighting signals all along the way. In effect, a transcontinental air line requires a very expensive land road- bed and upkeep. Since air transportation, for some time, will have to be subsidized, and since American politics requires that subsidies be called by some other name, the high land costs of flying may furnish the op- portunity to do both. Our habit of thinking with our mem- ories will also help. We remember that the government has always maintained navigable streams and harbors and sup- ported lighthouses, for water craft, and it will therefore require no new thought, but only memory, to grasp the idea of doing the same thing for aircraft. Only call the landing fields “harbors” and the signal stations “lighthouses,” and the whole thing comes within our familiar categories. There may be no objection to the necessary subsidies, if we. will call them by these names. 2 Q Which cost the most to con-! struct, the Panama or Suez canals? cigns. ° A.

From The Cleveland Press) AMAZING illustration of how so called prohibition enforcement off cers invade the rights guaranteed to citi j zens by the constitution of the United States is presented in Cleveland State Senator George H. Bender, with his wife and baby daughter, was enjoy ing the quiet of his own home. Suddenly an automobile containing five state hibition officers stopped in front of the house. Some of the agents ran to the front door and rang the bell. Others ran to the back door and pounded with their fists. Mrs. Bender was frightened, of course. The baby cried, In the midst of the turmoil one of the agents went bursting thru the front door, another thru the back door, One of the pro raiders announced: “We have a warrant to search this place. You have Canadian beer and bonded whisky here.” Bender asked to see the warrant. The raider flashed it at him. He didh’t read it to him. They found no liquor. * By what right do these so-called prohi bition agents invade the sacred precincts of a man’s home? Certainly by no legal right. The fourth amendment to the con- stitution says: “The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no war- rants shall issue but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and par- | ticularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be ized.” If the state enforcement officers didn’t openly violate the constitution of the United States, then they had evidence that there was liquor in the Bender home. That evidence was supported by the oath | or affirmation of someone. They couldn't have had such evidence, because, as their search proved, there was no liquor there. If someone took an oath that there liquor there, he took an oath to something that was se. We are interested in the case because we still demand for the citizens of this town the rights guaranteed to them by the constitution of the United States. We demand that the home again become a man’s castle, where he can rear his chil- dren in peace and quietude, without being imposed upon by raiders who come with- out legal rights, terrorizing women, fright- ening children and staging bedlam of the sort that the state agents created in the Bender home.

The Cost ‘ost of | War LEVEN years ago last month the Ger- man armies were pushing on thru Belgium and France to the very outskirts | of Paris. A great war was on. In those mad days and the years that followed neither side could afford to count the cost. But it is still the morning after the great fight. Nations really h just begun to count the cost. They have just started to pay the bills of warfare. The longest battle is still being fought. ? 35) since Been.

The important thing to the purchaser is the total cost of a car. The time payment charge is a part of such total cost when the car is bought on time. These reductions therefore mean, in such instances, a sub- stantially lowered total cost. It is the policy of General Motors to pass on to the car purchaser economies wherever effected — in financing as well as in engineering, manufacturing or merchandising operations, The purchase of a car out of income is a universally accepted practice. Six years ago General Motors or- ganized the General Motors Acceptance Corporation (GMAC) to make credit available at the lowest possible cost to purchasers of General Motors cars, The standard time price of any General Motors car is the cash delivered price, plus only the new GMAC charge.
