McCumber's Criticized Tariff.

Senator MCCUMBrI, chairman or
the Finance Committee in charge of
the Senate tariff measure, protests
Republican, newspapers that cannot
condone and frankly condemn the
impossible import duties proposed in
the Fordrey bill aud in the McCum-
Der amendments He seems to think
Republican newspapers should be for
his Republics, tariff measure whether
it Is good bill or bad bill. But
it wculf re poor newspaper, Re-
publican o. Democrat, that could
thirh any hir put forth by its party
mus. be good bill and any bin put
forth ~ tho opposition party must be
a had hill
If Senator McC"MsFG seeks Re
publica' arprova' NJ his tariff, seeks
it throughout the country, whether
from newspapers or from individ-
uals. the way so- him to get it is to
make a bette. tariff measure. His
measure is r0. a sound economic
product and il III not be a good
thing for the courtry with its excess
sives duties ard the certainty that
such duties will increase the public's
cost Of living.
The American people numbered in
the ranks o. McC,NREs's party will
be no more rsvn-ahs t. the Fordney-
McCum'e p. 'nCu'rs than are the
newspapers that owe higher duty
TO themselves and t. thr public than
TO be hidebound partisans on every
question regardless % its merits.
The Republican and independent
newspapers that are telling FoRDNEY
and McCUMBER the truth about their
extravagant tariff duties are perform
Ing a service for their rarty that could
be wrecter hv some of the things
the Fordnsya in the House and the
McCuml ere IN tAa Senate stubbornly
insist uaor ho:rf in the face Of busi-
ness chiertinn a'G public concern.
Senator poRAr' is right when he
says ti'af - ose on the Republican
side of th~ Senate would not vote
fer free .-ado" He would have
been rieh' 70 he had said that the
country wor'd not vote for free trade.
But this does not mean that the
country would vote for prohibitive
Chinese wall around the country to
raise all prices inside the walled in
country. And the country would not
stand anything OF the kind from
Congress.
Unless the Fordneys and the Nc
Cumbers mend their imperious legis-
lative ways they may And themselves
as wide apart from the rank and file
Of their own party as from the Demo
cratic party. which Is frankly jubi-
liant ovA- the help il is now getting
for mex election from some of the
majority leadership OF Congress.
Wha' Is '..ere about the Senatorial
toga that so often makes a plain man
of indifferent mental capacity think
himself an oracle OF wisdom--the
representative of the law and the
gospel--once elected to the United
States Senate?

Lincoln Owed Him So.
A Brooklyn Man Who Gould Not Col
lect for Personal Telegram.

TO THE New YORK HERALD: Henry
C. Buckhout, real estate expert of the
Brooklyn Edison Company, who, now
in his seventy y-ninth year, goes regu-
larly to his work in the Pearl street
offices Of that company. has a personal
memory OF Abraham Lincoln probably
different from that of any other man.
The great war President died owing
him somewhere between So and 81; but
the privileged caller who looks into the
kindly face OF Mr.. Buckhout can easily
see behind the smile and underneath
the chuckle more a sense OF enjoyment
OF the anecdote than any feeling of loss
at this late day.
In 1884 Buckhout was cashier in
washington for the United states Tele-
graph Company. Of which William orton
was president. After office hours one
evening Buckhout was making up his
monthly report when President Lincoln
entered and inquired IL 1t was too late
to send message. Buckhout replied
that all OF the operators had gone
home and it could not be sent until
morning without recalling one OF them.
Lincoln replied "Well. .hat viii do"
and proceeded to write a telegram, ad-
dressed TO Mrs. Lincoln at Springfield,
ILL., lie handed the blank to young
Buckhout with a request that its send
ing be looked after In the morning as
early as possible. AS he started to
leave the Office. then on Fifteenth street,
In a building adjoining the banking
house OF Jay Cooke & Co. Buckhout
asked IL he should send the telegram
collect. mo" Lincoln replied, charge
IL TO me-" and walked out
The company carried monthly ac-
counts with banks. theaters, hotels and
the Government departments. for settle
ment about the first OF the month In
due time its collector reported back
instructions from Mr. Lincoln TO charge
the telegram to the War Department"
General EclSert. who had jurisdiction of
such routine matters In the War De-
partment. asked to see the message
when the bill was presented for audit
and upon inspection declined on purely
routine technical grounds TO approve it
for payment.
Mr.. fsuokhout to whom the item was
greater then than IL appears Ia, .he ret
respect now, personally toor tho mes
sage TO General Eckert, who declined
20 accept responsibility Tor the War De-
partment. and directed tha: as 1t was
,he Presidents private message II
should be collected from the Executive
Mansion. Buckhout finally sent mes
senger TO Mr.. Lincoln with a statement
OF facts, including General Eckert's in
structions. and requested that u be paid
from the White House as the only
means OF relieving HIS personal rcspon-
slbiiity therefor.

Sunlight and Health.
Worlds Greatest Antlseptic Is
Preventive Of Diseases.
FROM the London Times.

From the IsoNoon TfneS.
committee OF wise men is at present
sitting in London to ascertain and advise
the Government on the effects OF SUM-
light on the human body in health and
disease. There has never been clearer
indication Of the direction In which all
our thoughts are turning.
For the return OF the sun''---in a
medical sense-has been growing in vol
ume during the last few years. The
great sun baths Of the high Alps are one
expression OF it. Another is the wonder
full sun and air treatment OF childrens
ailments at the Lord Mayor Treloai
Homes at Alton under the care OF Sir
Henry Gauvain. Last summer too fur
nished a striking object lesson. The
death rate for England and Wales in
1931--one OF the sunniest years we have
ever experienced--was the lowest or
record (121 TO 1000 population).
The sun. in fact. is the worlds anti
septic. It viii be seen ttat as the
shadow rises--that is, as the sunshine
strength shrinks--the death rate mounts
up. There is. however. about fort
nights interval between sunshine dimi-
mutton and disease increase. In other
words. II seems as though time was re-
quired for the germs OF disease to profit
by the withdrawal of their great enemy
Like the evildoer they seem TO love the
darkness and grow and flourish In II.
Meanwhile. OF course. the temperature
OF the air Is falling. This lowers human
resistance. Thus. perhaps mt the mo.
ment when the germ has Increased and
multiplied its strength its victims have
lost some OF their powers OF defense.
If this be. indeed. the correct reading
OF the genesis OF our annual winter epi-
denies the moral Is clear. We must use
the sun more than we do. We must not
shut out its antiseptic rays from our city
streets by curtains of smoke.
1t may sound an extreme statement.
but there is reason to think that a
smokeless atmosphere would do more TO
rid us OF our diseases than any other
conceivable means OF prevention. We
should in summer have a daily flushing
OF our streets and houses with the grea,
antiseptic. and even in winter the unfl-
tered rays would keep down the ver-
min" which threaten us. We canno,
make our winters warmer than they are,
but we can most emphatically secure the
services Of natures gamekeeper" to
prevent the annual overgrowth tn of bac-
terial pests.

Another threat has been made 10
throw a bomb at United States en-
voy in Europe in case the Federal
Government does not save SAcco and
vANzETTr from punishment for the
crime of murder of which they have
been convicted in the courts of Massa-
chusetts. The United States has no
authority I'm the matter; the judicial
system of Massachusetts, is giving the
convicted men every possible oppor-
tunity to establish their innocence.
The persecution Of officials who are
not responsible for the future of these
men. carried on nominally In their
behalf. is frankly designed to terrorize
all American officials. whether their
commissions come from the United
States or State. 1t is an interesting
fact that this campaign has not fright
ened any official into advocacy of un-
usual haste or unusual delay in dis
posal of the cases.

Talk and Accomplishment.

dONeTHOT MILLER has Il ITdnk0eSs
and an avoidance of demagoguery
which make his speeches refreshing
In his speech at the National Repub.
lican Club on Saturday he said:
I'VE have done some things in the
interest OF this city which seem to
have been unpopular with a mass of
the electorate. judging by the election
last fall, but | think now the people
are beginning to realize the difference
between talk and accomplishment"
Everybocy that has brains under
his hat realizes that in spite of op-
position from the city administration
the Port Authority is on the way
toward saving the citys commercial
supremacy.
In spite of the city administration
the Transit Commission has done
more in one year to improve trans
portation, present and future, than
was done IN five years preceding.
Accomplishment has indeed been
the keynote of Governor MILLER $
administration.

SEWER EXTENSION
BONDS CARRY BY
VERY LARGE VOTE
SzO, 900 to Be Spent In South Side
OF Town and Carrying Sys-
tenn to Other Streets.

The sewer extension bond election
carried in Marietta, Friday, by the
overwhelming vote of 436 to z.
There was practically NO opposi-
ton to the bonds observed before the
election, but the practically unani-
nous vote for them surprised those
interested in getting the sewer sys-
tenn extended to serve the entire
town.
The main part of the $4,000 will
be spent in installing sewers and
septic tanks in the south side of
town. However, 'on Roswell and
some other streets the sewers will be
extended to accommodate sections that
pt present have no sewers.
With the sewer system completed,
the streets paved and the water sup
ply improved, Marietta is one of the
best equipped and most inviting
towns in the state.

CRCLMG THE SQUARE
By &c"

One Of the earliest boyish ambi-
tions that l can recall was to hurry
and grow up big enough to get job
in a grocery store.
Looking backward, / should say
now that the desire was born of appe-
tite rather than ambition.
l grew up but l never did get that
grocery store job. The reason was,
guess, that my motives were too
apparent.
1t was case Of not wanting the
job less, but something good to eat
more.
Just recently I've had relapse
recurring desire for job in a
grocery store.
And it is all due to the temptations
of a combination grocery store and
meat market down on Church street,
where the apples are red and round
and shiny, the meats tender anil juicy
looking, and the vegetables crisp
cool and green, to say nothing OF
rows and rows Of bright labelled cans

OF fruit, jars of jellies and jams, and
other kinds Of "sumpin' good to eat"
The cleanliness Of the place makes
it look like the Gold Dust Twins
might live there and while its not
the biggest place in the world, it's
packed and jammed with every va
riety Of delicacy in the food line.
Somehow or other, I just natur-
ally like to hang around there, in
hale the odors of spices and fruits
and ham, and watch that fellow Med
ford and his clerks handle the Gus
toners. They work swiftly, smooth
ly, smilingly, courteously and they
are everlastingly busy.
I'll bet anything Medford is fine
fellow to work for. He doesn't look
as if he'd mind a fellow sampling
something good once in while. You
know what / mean.
And this is the why Of the relapse
was talking about. If ever work
in grocery store should like it ia
/ be The Medford Cash Grocery CO.

SHRINERS RETURN
FROM BIG TINE IN
ROME WEDNESDAY
Nearly Hundred Shriners From
Marietta Attended Big Cere-
monial and Minstrel.

Marietta Shriners returning from
the ceremonial at Rome yesterday
staged in that city by Yaarab Temple,
Mystic Shrine, of Atlanta, report a
royal time. About twenty-five autos
carrying seventy-hve Shriners, head
ed by len C. Baldwin, president of
the Marietta Shrine Club, went from
this city.
Two big stunts were staged that
outshone all the others. When the
special Southern train bearing the
Atlanta Shriners reached Brice sta
ton about ten miles from Rome, it
was held up by Rome Shriners, with
much firing of torpedoes on the
tracks, side-tracked and invaded.
All the passengers were forced to
hold up their hands and receive cop
les Of the extra edition of The Rome
Tribune-Herald, giving the story Of
the hold-up. They also were cordial
ly welcomed.
At 10 o'clock in the morning a
bunch of-Shriners went to the public
schools, kidnapped the teachers in
autos and dismissed the pupils, after
decorating the Cover grades with
paper Shrine fezes. A big banquet
rendered by the local Shriners was
a feature of the evening attentions
shown the visitors.
