PLAIN AND FANCY TIME

IF IT should be > o'clock in Philadelphia
and 3 o'clock in Camden, what time
would it be on Il ferryboat?
This is only one Of thousand weird
question" that may rise to haunt be-
wildered public after the last Sunday in
this month, when the new daylight
saving law, dccrccd by Council and
passed in defiance Of Congress which
refused to save summer daylight, will be-
come effective. Members Of Council in
sist that the law will not be repealed.
There is little likelihood that it will be
repealed. New York and other iargc
cities have made similar dayight-sp
laws of their own and they will turn their
clocks an hour forward so that the noon
hour will fall at II o'clock. Quitting
time will come an hour earlier to offices,
shops and factories.
The first effect Of the new rule should
be felt in the jeweIry trade. Wise men
will carry two watches-one in each top
pocket or one anchored to each wrist
in order that they may tag each Aeeting
hour properly.

WE ENVY SALVADOR

Ar ITS own request the little republic
of Salvador has received an~explicit
enunciation of the Monroe Doctrine from
the government of the United States.
The statement, which has Just been for
warded by the State Department, has not
been made public.
Here is reticence quite as regrettable
as certain other experiments, in secret
diplomacy made since the war for world
freedom. The covenant of the League Of
Nations simply groups the Monroe Doc
trine with regional understanding" )"
guarantees respect for it by the members
of the international partnership and
drops the subject.
Senator's with q zeal for Americaniza-
tion have been dscontented with such
curtness and have somewhat more en-
phatically reiterated the provision in
their proposed changes. But explicit
definition of the theme has generally
been withheld. Monroe's dictum of De-
cember, 1928, will not entirely suffice now
since feature thereof was a promised
noninterference policy by the United
States as regards European affairs.
If the inquisitive Central American re-
public really knows the nature of the
doctrine today she has the American pub
lie, and perhaps even some American
senators, at a considerable disadvantage
1t would be convenient to realize just
what we are talking about as we airily
proclaim our adherence to the cardinal
principle governing relations with our
southern neighbors. The State Depart
ment has an exceptional chance to do the
nation a real service

A ND necessity will not only revolutionize
\ ideas. but it will revolutionze methods.
What does the world need now more than
anything else?
revolution in power comparable to the
revolution caused by the invention of the
steam engine.
Look at the possibilities.
A fuel engineer puts 1t this way: "When
coal is transmitted into heat, theoretically
you lose 10 per cent of its power. When
heat becomes steam, theoretically you lose
another 10 per cent Of power. When steam
becomes electricity, theoretically you lose
another 10 per cent Thus electricity
should, theoretically, be 20 per cent of the
power contained in coal.
'Practicaly, what is il?
'Practicaly, on the average, so wasteful
and imperfect are our methods of developing
power. that we get in electricity only 10 per
cent OF the power in coal. Fifteen per cent
Is at present very good result"
A tremendous revolution in power, one
which would make all the burden of debt
under which the world lies seem trivial,
would b" method that would give us not
10 but 30 per cent of the power that lies in
coal. with the margin between 10 and 100
per cent TO work on, the case of the world
is not hopeless.

The country is increasing in popula-
ton every decade, and the demand for
higher education is growing more rapidly
than the population. In 1873 there were
only about $4,000 students in the colleges
and universities of the United States.
Today there are more than 100000. The
University Of Pennsylvania alone has
almost onc-half as many students as
there we're in all the colleges in the coun-
try in 1878.
There are two reasons for the increas-
ing number of students in the colleges.
One is the increasing wealth, which en-
ables parents to give their sons and
daughters the best education obtainable,
whether it is to be used professionally or
not. And the other is that higher educa-
tion has vindicated itself commercially
Men of technical training, which can be
obtained only in the colleges, proved their
value during the war and convinced
thousands Of skeptics that the colleges
arc worth while. This means that the
pressure ON the colleges will increase
RAPIDLY in the near future in order that
the demand for trained men may be sup
piled.

 Though Mir. Baldwin had not been in Mccarthy since 1917 he still retained his interest in cop. per, and kept in touch with his friends here It was only re- gently that he purchased large interest in the Big Bug Group a property consisting of eigh t claims adjacent to the Mother Lode Coalition Mines Go. and had intended to develop that property next season.
 He was member of the F. & AM. Valdez Lodge No. 168
 Many Alaskans will attend his funet al at Washington, DC. and many more would be there to pay their last respects to their old pioneer friend if it Were possible.
