WORTH CONSIDERING

Secretary Hoover finds that COM
bines of importers have forced up
prices Of products which we are COM
PEELED to get from outside the coun-
try. He thinks the American buy
ers should be permitted to combine
and so. as he believes. be able to
buy to better advantage; that this
could be done without injury and be
likely to result in advantage to all. e
This country has to buy the sisal
for it's binder Irvine OF those who
have arbitrarily raised the i'm
port price by 800 per cent. The rub
Der growers. or importers or both,
have us at their mercy. We are de-
pendent for our coffee and our tea
to large extent. yet it is said we
might produce more of these prod
ucts. Encouragement of this would
seem to deserve prime considera :
ton. Meanwhile such an arrange
n;ent as that advocated by Secre-
tary Hoover might afford some re-
lief. The possibility is worthy the
attention of Congress sometime
when 1t is in shape TO give a matter
serious and careful consideration.

Guns Too Easy To Get

Scotland Yard, said to a party of
friends:
The criminal will take any
chance so long as he feels that he
has an even chance of getting away
with a light sentence. In this
country he evidently feels that he
has more than an even chance of
getting off easy"
Which is of interest in connection
with the feeling experienced by
Messrs. Crowley and Goodwin and
held by city police authorities sener-
ally.

sHlRklNa RESPONSIBILITY

Senator Jim" Reed Of Missouri Is
not regarded by some. as a model
senator. He has helped by his SER
vice In the Senate to deepen the con-
viction that the country at large Is
imposing too great burdens on the
federal government, made up Of such
as he; that these will not be proper
Iy treated In such hands. But Sem
stor Reed Is not lacking In discern
ment.
Speaking at Boston, Monday. he
asserted that the drift toward
Capitalization Is startling and dam
gerous," that the sense OF re-
sponsibility OF public officials de-
clined with the usurpation Of local
powers by the central government.
Federal courts are crowded with
state cases. Federal officers swarm
over the country. Courts or quasi
courts have been established with
authority to pry into private affairs
Of institutions, to examine the books
and papers and to hale men to
Washington for examination.
The movement needs progress but a
little further and state government
might as well cease to exist at ALL
We do not see how this may sue
Cessfully be denied. We do not ar
rive at all tho conclusions Reed
would adopt. We do not think here
Is any argument against world
court. We do not imagine that
what with facilities for communica-
ton throughout the world there can
be such isolation as existed in the
days of our fathers. But there is
left none OF us any room for doubt
that government officiaIdom does not
offer an inviting haven to our
troubles. Much Is left to be wished
for in the case Of some of those
who represent the official govern
rnent, some of those who go about
in the employ of the various depart
ments. Consider the CASTOR d.
Means, for instance.
Inevitably when a higher authority
assumes responsibility the lower
authority slips the burden from his
shoulders. If the state would care
for certain dependents the COM
munity proceeds at once to wash its
hands OF them. All these duties
multiply: the heads Of departments
cannot keep up with their respective
responsibilities, bureaucrats as
sumo the functions OF their heads
and strengthen their grip on the
situation and the emoluments there
OF. Senator Reed hasn't exaggerated
tie danger of such conditions.

PEPPERS AND LISTENERS

There seems to be a crying need
for some OF us to stop a minute and
consider whether we are public
nuisance and objects for contempt.
or whether we really are doing our
part as respectable citizens.
In the Letter Box this morning Ia
.ai communication on the subject Of
listening in on telephones. Better
read 1t. Having done so aren't we
convinced that a lot OF good folks
have thoughtlessly been doing con-
tcmptible things with a telephone?
Did We ever stop TO think that
listening in on the telephone is some
thing like creeping up to a window
under cover Of the night and peeping
In? We don't hold, any of us. peep
ing Toms in high regard. do we? OF
course not.
Now most Of us. 1t Is assumed.
have fair amount OF common
sense; suppose we stop and consider
how much worse may he "peeping
Tom" to a listener In" sort OF de-
eide in our own minds what punish
aent would best fit the latter.
Listening in may cause moro
trouble than peeping in. Recently
there vas a fire outside a certain
Maine town. A cali was made on the
nre department but because so many
along that line Of the telephone had
their receivers down listening, tine
message didn't set through without
serious delay. Perhaps property
might have been saved had these lis
teners In not tried to crafty their
curiosity by doing something which
they would hesitate to do IL people
were looking at them.
They didn't wish to help along the
destruction Of a neighbours property,
o no. The party who sits down for .
half hours gossip with q gossipy
neishbor doesn't wish to prevent
someone else from calling the doctor
or attending to some important bust
ness. o. no! Just selfish and wish
ing to crafty themselves at the ex-
pense OF others. That's all, the same
state of mind which criminals have.
Does this seem too drastic? 10 It?
What is untrue or ovsrdrawn about
it? How may 1t be improved? Evil
IDENTIFY by no one save by the offend
ere themselves. These usually are
intelligent. decent folks-on the out
side. II they are SO on the inside
when no one is looking. this may
'serve as q reminder and 80 be help
ful. We know Of no other way Of
getting at this great public nuisance.
That what 1t is. not some little
sriaing matter to be laughed away.

Names Policy Wiser
(Waterville Sentinel

(WatcrViile Sentlnel)
How much wiser is Names policy
in handling drunken automobile
drivers than that in Massachusetts
is indicated by the report that in the
first week Of March this year in the
Bay State there were 10 arrests for
drunken driving and but three Jail
sentences; seven lives lost in auto
mobile accidents: IL arrests for
reckless driving and no Jail sentences
therefor. Plainly what Massa-
chusetts needs is the proportion Of
Jail sentences to convictions that
has been established here in Maine
If some of those Massachusetts,
drivers wander into Maine this
summer they may be taught few
wholesome lessons in driving which
they seem to need SO badly,
