HOLSTERS, Snakes, Many
a Thing, Handing Out
Signs Of an Early Spring

Portland, Me-. Feb. 8-Sisns OF
early spring have begun to null
tipIy. Close on the heels of re-
ports Of grasshoppers found in an
Oxford county field, two snakes
taken from a nearby spring and
blossoms picked from a fruit tree,
there were today other indications
that the mild winter would con-
tinue. Many grass fires, it was
learned, were being reported
daily in eastern Maine where at
this time last year there were
several feet of snow on the level.
Fishermen at Five Islands, near
Bath, reported HOLSTERS are being
caught in large numbers, one fish
erman making 500 for a days
work. This unusual condition,
they explained, was due to the
warm weather and was a sure in
dication of early spring as lob
sters 60 into deep water to escape
cold weather.

VITAL TO THE WEST.

The Lincoln Highway Forum, a purely unsclfsh
publication devoted to the construction of a system
of national highways and the establishment Of better
means of bringing all sections of the ration closer to-
gether has this to say of the Phipps bill:
1.-THE Senate Bill, 1912, introduced by Senator
Phipps of Colorado, on April 81 and passed by the
senate on May 16, contains an amendment to the Fed
eral Aid road act of July IL, 1916, of the utmost i'm
p~ortance to the western states, which contain large
areas of public land.
From the first the western states of sparse popu-
lation, vast highway mileage and relatively small in
advantage'in endeavcring to bring about the improve
ment Of the important through roads. This disad-
vantage has arisen from the fact that the large
amount of money appropriated by congress to assist
the states in constructing highways, has been pro-
rated to the various states without consideration be-
ing given to the fact that certain of the western states
have as high as over 90 per cent of their land area
still owned by the Federal government and bringing
in no revenue to the states road funds. The states
have been compelled to endeavor to build long mile
ages of improved road through these public land areas.
Yet they have received only SO per cent Of the i'm
provement cost from the federal government, the
same ratio received by those states in which no pub
lie land exists.
'The Phipps bill is d designed to correct this unjust
inequality in the distribution of the remaining funds
previously appropriated by congress as aid to the
states for highway building. 1t provides that the gov
eminent will pay 30 per cent of the total estimated
cost Of approved road improvement projects in every
state, with the exception that in any state contain
ing unappropriated public lands exceeding 8 per cent
of the total of all lands in the state, the share of the
United States in the cost of the road improvement will
not exceed such 5O per cent OF the total estimated
cost plus a percentage of such total estimated cost
equal to one-half of the percentage which the area of
the public land bears to the total area of the state.
'In simple language, this means, for example, that
in the case of a state in which 90 per cent of the land
area was still public land, the federal government
would meet so per cent of the cost of highway i'm
provenent, plus as per cent. The cost of the i'm
provement would come 95 per cent from the Federal
treasury and S per cent from the states funds.
'f western states are to be able to meet their Fed
eral aid appropriations and continue the ambitious
program of highway construction now so well started,
they not only should have, but must have, the as
sistance which the Phipps measure will provide. 9th
erwise the highway funds of these states will be de-
pleted in the attempt to match the federal dollars and
in 8 very short time the states will find themselves
with inadequate maintenance funds so necessary to
keep up the improvements accomplished in the past.
house should act on this measure with equal prompt
ness"

ABILITY IN THE CENSUS OFFICE.

President Harding is putting into practical effect
what he promised he would do in the matter of eff
fciency in the public service.
This is particularly notable in the case of appoint
ments to the principal POSITIONS in the census bureau
one of the government bureaus which controls a
tronage. The work of the census bureau is almost
entirely statistical. It has little to do with govern
mental policies. 1t is highly important, If statistics
are to be used at all, that they be dependable and.
therefore, it is equally important that the men who
have charge not only Of the gathering but of the tabu-
lation of the statistics and deduction of results shall
be men skilled in this particular line.
Mr.. Harding selected for director of the census Mr..
William NJ. Steuart. Mr.. Steusrt is a native of Texas
but has spent nearly all his life in the north. He has
been connected with the census bureau since 1880,
having served ten years as a subordinate in the di-
vision of manufactures; then ten years as chief of
ufactures in the bureau. He served as secretary and
statistician for the United States tariff commission
from 1917 to 1919, and was assistant director of the
census from August, 1919, until his promotion to the
dictatorship a few weeks ago.
The new assistant director is Joseph A. Hill, a ma
tive of New Hampshire, graduate of Harvard in the
class of 1885, a lecturer in the University of Penn
sylvania in 1898, instructor at Harvard in 1895, rep
resentative of the Massachusetts, tax commission in
vestigating the European system of taxation, in 1897,
and since 1898 engaged in statistical work in the cen
sus bureau. He was appointed chief statistician in
1909 and is a member of the American Economical
association and president of the American Statistical
association.
If experience may be considered a qualification for
a public position these two men who will direct the
work of the census bureau for the next four years at
least may be considered amply qualified for the work
over which they have been given charge.

Mr., Underwood of Alabama. floor leader of his
party in the senate. recently wrote = letter in sup
port of a Democratic candidate for congress in an
interim election and asserted among other things that
the old time cleavage between the two great political
parties has not changed That is absolutely true.
Many Democratic voters have become advocates of
the protective policy. but the Democratic orgsni=a-
ton is still opposed to protection except for the
products Of their constituents whose votes they hope
to secure by pretending TO promote their self-intetcst
As a matter of practice, there can be no protective
tariff put into effect unless il is framed by the real
friends of protection. The man who is for protec-
ton only on his owr industries is no friend of protec-
ton at all. He is e shyster merely trying to hold his
