The movies, think manv people, are
the most fragrant cause of the breakup
of the American home, with all the evils
which they think are following in the
train of that disaster. The movies take
people away from home. They get the
habit of going out to be amused, and in
a few years the power of being amused
at home atrophies, and they won't stay
home evenings. As work or school has
already taken most of them out of the
home by day, the movies together with
their criminal accomplice, the automo-
bile, have completed the degeneration.
Now comes the radio. For three dol
lars, or eight, or twenty-five, according
to which ad you read, you can have a
receiving station in your home. Con-
certs win come to you, sermons, vaude-
vile shows, weather reports, speeches
in congress, anything you want to hear.
Back to the home comes amusement.
And will the home now build up
again? Or will there be a fight on be-
tween ears and eyes? Or will the radio
add form and color to its repertory after
a while, and give you everything on one
wire?

THE BUSINESS OF ALI,

With new educational and uplift
movements being started all the time, the
national economic organization may at.
tract less attention than it deserves.
This body, with a backing of prominent
fnanciers and business men, plans a
campaign of national education on pres
ent economic conditions and their solu-
ton. 1t win try to bring to the Ameri-
can people, through press, platform and
public exhibits, "a better understanding
of economic questions such as taxation.
tariff and European establishments, to
the end that sound legislation may be
promoted and unsound proposals de-
feated"
Nothing is more needed at the pres
ent time. Never have economic prob
lens been so big and complex and the
need of understanding so widely felt.
And unfortunately it happens that the
economic discussions which reach the
biggest audiences are usually those of
politicians, who are not thoroughly
equipped for handling such topics, and
whose primary interest is not a scien-
tiic and lasting solution but their own
reelection to Office or the fortunes of
their own party.
The very word Economics" has a
highbrowish and repellant sound to most
people. What it means is simply the
business of all of us, and what the econ
Omists aim at is better business and
more comfort in the material things of
life through intelligent understanding
and organized action.
With politically disinterested experts
handling economic problems, there is a
better chance of getting somewhere The
plan is fundamentally simple The pro-
motors. realizing that congress fails to
deal adequately with pressing problems,
propose to educate the public and trust
to the public eventually to bring pres
sure to bear on congress in the right di-
roctio-~ - IS sound enough. provided
the promoters themselves can keep clear
of all suspicion of personal or partisan
bias.

In a prOviso attached to small be-

the institution put out a football team
for any sort of play the bequest would
be null and void.

principally in the fact that a larger
proportion of undergraduates are inter

The recent objections are not 50 much

Tax Valuation.
bellows Falls Times.

tbelIoWS Il ais IlmeS.D
New Hampshire has a tax commission
headed by Charles NJ. Floyd. former gov
ernor, which is on the war path trying to
have all property in that state assessed
for taxation at its full and real value
The New Hampshire law calls for that
kind of assessing and the commission
seems to have power to push up assess
ment where it considers them too low.
Valuation in both Keene and Claremont
was raised over S2,000.000. Vermont
has got to face the music on this issue.
A state tax is now a settled policy. The
only issue is the size of the tax. The
great fear now entertained by each town
is that its neighbors will have a lower
grand list and so pay a lower pro rata of
the tax. While the Vermont law calls
for the listing of property at its full value
it is an open secret that in most towns
the listing is done on 90 to 70 per cent
basis. There will be no listing at full
value until there is a state equalizing
board with power to do some real boost
ing. The tax commissioners Office could
do the job, but not until the legislature
hands it little more power

Captain Artura da Sacadura, who Is
attempting the transatlantic fight from
Portugal to Brazil, is an officer in the
Portuguese navy and one of the first
men in the service to take up the study
and practice of aviation. Born in
northern Portugal about 40 years ago,
he attended the local schools and then
entered the Portuguese naval college.
Upon his graduation he entered the navy
and won his way to the rank of captain.
At the commencement of the World war
Captain da Sacadura became actively
interested in aviation and was made a
flight commander in the Portuguese
service For several years he has de-
voted himself to experiments with both
airplanes and seaplanes. In aviation
circles he won a reputation for his skill
and daring. His transatlantic venture
is not his first attempt at long-distance
flying Two years ago he accomplished
a flight from Lisbon to the MADEIRA
