Most foolish activity is the attack
made on Mr.. Mellon, Secretary of the
Treasury. Those that attack him
should thank him for his service to
the Government
No longer young man, overworked
with gigantic interests of his own that
needed his attention and that nobody
else could attend to, he dropped his
own business and took up the finan-
cial affairs of the United States.
He did this at a time when, as
everybody knows, the best brain in
the country was needed to manage
United States finances.

Committee votes unanimously to give
farm products the lowest possible
transportation rate on railroads. It's
a good idea, for famers, and good for
those that eat farm products.
But what about the middleman?
Cut the freight rates all you please,
and that won't help the farmer if the
middleman cuts the reduction in
freight from the price he pays the
farmer.
And it won't help the consumer if
a middleman adds to the cost of food
what is saved in the freight rate.

 Keep your scientific snoots out of our business" they said, or words to that effect.
 Theory Never Found Faulty
 This may seem to be ancient history. But Maury's theory is honored by every seafafing nation today. It has been amplified and elaborated but in no particular has it been found faulty. Deep-sea commerce is, mostly carried in steam-driven vessels now, but .Maury's s wind roses are still on the sharts for those who sail. And it was Maury who uplifted the Photographic Office from mere depot for worn-out chrono- meters into the place in naval estima- tion which it occupies today. He made it worth taking. Mir. Hoover would not want to take over a dusty garage for old clocks.
 Nowadays it has half a dozen func- tions. For one thing, the Naval Ob- seryatory in Washington is under its direction. The Naval Observatory s time signals are relied on as far away as Australia. Its astronomers check up the sun, moon and stars and have recently published what is, to the lay reader, the most intensely uninteresting book in the world. By it sea-captain can find the exact position of his ship without resorting to the odious pursuit of mathematics. Formerly, he shot a star or the sun at noon, and then went into the great silence with his slate pencil. Now he steps on deck at al- most any hour, shoots almost any star, turns to the right page in the book and logs his place on the sea. He only needs to find the star. The rest has been done for him. Logarithms have been abolished.
 Sun Spots and Icebergs
 Another thing the Naval Observatory does is to spot sun spots. Just what a sun spot does to telephone and tele-
The Birmingham age-herald., 1924-04-13

graph wires, and probably also to the radio sets, which have done so much to keep America at home lately, is not understood by the writer. Only, the nearer spot gets to the center of the sun the worse grow the wires, and so the observatory notifies the wire com panies by telegraph as the spots move. The Photographic Office keeps tab on ocean currents too, for they are con tinually changing place.
 By a system of radio communication with ships at sea. it identifies the pre- else place in the North Atlantic to which the hot and. cold currents are shifting icebergs in the summer. Then the coast guard sends out it's ice patrol and, so to speak, hangs bell on each berg. If the master of the Titanic had obeyed the H. O.'s warning, that great steamer would not have been lost eleven years ago. Thanks to its familiarity with the antics of the cur rents, Herbert j. Browne is able to tell us a year or so ahead whether or not we will have wet or a dry sea son. HI
 Laws That Govern Weather
 "I am working out the natural laws that govern the weather" says Browne. "So far I have been 100 per cent right
 The fly in the cup of the H. O.'s happiness is the debate whether it shall swallow the coast and geodetic survey, or be swallowed by its rival. The H. o. is charged with the duty of chart ing waters, and the coast survey with that of mapping those of the United States and it's possessions. The Hydro graphic Office is of the United States navy, and the coast survey is an or ganization of civilian seamen and en- gineers. The Brown plan for the re- organization of the government depart ments call for the absorption of the Photographic Office by the Coast Sur vey.
 It is freely admitted that there is duplication of functions. One ef- ficient organization could do the work of both, with presumably less lost mo- tion and gain in economy. But the Photographic Office says that charting the seas is navy job. Seamen, it says, will not talk freely to civilians. It has more than 5000 correspondents afloat, in consequence of which it is able to publish daily newspaper, in which those tidal and lighthouse and
