JUNEAU BOAT EXPLODES
 AND SINKS

The gas boat Jennie. halibuter working out of Juneau, caught fire causing an explosion of the gas tanks and sinking the boat in very short time. The owner, Capt. Envald Warner owner and Ole Pe- terson were aboard when the ex- plosion occurred and jumped aboard the Louhelen standing near by. The explosion was caused by the striking of a match shortly after taking on oil. Boats near by were scorched by fire before they were able to get out of the danger zone.
 The Juneau fire Department with hose and chemicals were able to get the burning oil on the water under control.

THE TIDE HAS TURNED

The Scripps-Howard newspapers, almost alone
among American daes, have fought the various pro-
posals brought forward since the war to turn the
great Government fleet over TO private interests.
We have insisted that it can be made to pay its
way but that, regardless of that consideration,
it should be maintained for the benefit of the Ameri-
people. particularly the producers
1t looked like a losing fight for long time, but
the tide is turning
Yesterday Senator Jones Of Washington, chair
man of the Senate Commerce Committee rated as
the Senates expert in shipping matters made state
ment on the subject Jones is not radical; he is
a very regular and conservative Republican. He
is, indeed, assistant Republican floor leader. But his
views on the merchant marine problem may remind
you Of many an editorial you have read in this
paper.
First stating his conviction that Congress will
not provide subsidy or otherwise induce private
capital to give the country merchant fleet, Senator
Jones said:
THE Government must furnish the money, build
the ships and directly or indirectly operate them
That being the only way open to us l in favor of
adopting it. We do it. Once we decided to
90 it other peoples and other governments will know
that it will be done. Then will uncertainty give way
to certainty. Then will our competitors know that
they have a rival that they can not defeat or de-
stroy.
I'm my judgment, a period of years this fleet
would replace expand and maintain itself The bene-
Ats to commerce the benefits every line of indus
try in the country affected by ocean rates, would
every year far exceed any annual maintenance ex-
penditure. Not only would we get the commercial
benefits, but essential shipyards would be main
tanned against great national need. This In itself
would be most substantial benefit to the country
in time of peace as we'll as in war.
THE farmer needs an American merchant ma
rne. He needs it more than any great industry be-
cause Of MS need of markets that can reached only
by ships. His condition today is in no small degree
due to the consequences coming from the lack of
ships when the began His products rotted at
the dock and In the bin because there were no
ships to carry them to the markets crying out for
them
1t seems to me that of all our people, the
farmer should be the and insistent upon
having an American merchant marine and be the
most earnest in supporting any measure that can be
gotten through that will offer reasonable hope Of
a merchant marine"

THE CASE AGAINST TOBACCO
BY n. ID. Cochran

While had never smoked tobacco in any form ex-
cept cigars cigarets and in pipes, and had smoked
only since IA years old until past 60 and am still
at it, didn't really know whether actually HARM
full not. So l was interested in reading what DR..
Morris Fishbein wrote about it.
Knowing that DIR. Fishbein was one Of America s
leading medical authorities and editor of the Journal
OF the American Medical Association, and of Hygeia
the health magazine was ready to pay some attention
to what he saideven, perhaps, advise others to go
slow on tobacco d.. Fishben thought BEST but with
no thought of following that advice myself
But iC wasn't that kind of advice. On the con.
trary DIR. Fishben tells us the consensus of opinion
among medical men is that while smoking tobacco
is harmful to growing boys, tobacco is sedative
and thai smoking in moderation is not harmful to
grown-ups, but is soothing when the system irra.
ble and with some people contributes calm thought
and continuous mental exertion. Also that smoking
cigarettes is less harmful than smoking cigars and
pipes.
With growing youth however tobacco in any
form is harmful. 1t is well to remember that

MAKING PROGRESS

Public sentiment will indorse the policy inaug-
urated to establish real civil service in the police
department in this city.
The commissioners declare that thus far they
have had the support of Mayor Duvall in their effort
to take the police department away from the in
1uence of politics and pull and make efficiency and
merit the basis Of appointment and advancement
Political control of police department always
makes for crime.
II the men who take up this work know that
they must make good by service and not at primaries
or by protecting the friends of the bosses, they will
give service.
1t is not asking too much of those who want
to be policemen that they know something of the
duties of that position and great deal as to the
rights of the citizens who pay them 1t is not too
much to require of those who seek higher places
in the service that they know the basic laws of
the State and what they may or may not do when
faced by situations they called upon to handle
:. 1t may or may not be significant that of the
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1927-02-11

seventy-three applicants for the position of ser
geant, only nine met the requirements of the COM
mission.
1t is significant that the tests were not as to
party and as to the number of political indorse-
ments, but were limited to the duties of the
place.
A police sergeant might reasonably be expected
to know what to do if called upon by a street car
conductor to help when passenger refused to pay
his fare.
He ought, reasonably, to be expected TO know
what sort of evidence he have in making raids
for liquor or upon gambling houses.
The people want intelligent police force
They want force that knows its powers and its
duties Fortunately the present commission seems
to have recognized this need and the difference be-
tween intelligence and mere education.
The questions usually substituted by such boards
place emphasis on spelling writing. 1t is much
more important that know exactly what he
should do and then do it, than it is that he be able
to correctly spell the words in his report of what he
has done.
Any effort which will make the police depart
ment which is built around that intelligence
and merit will be publicly appauded and supported.

OVER ONE HURDLE

That very mild but very humanitarian measure
looking to the establishment of Old Age Pensions has
been passed by the State Senate
1t is being fought by interests which have failed
to comprehend its scope its purpose and which
always fight anything which bears labe THAT might
indicate more expenses.
This measure, as sponsored by Senator Nejdl
merely permits the various counties, by vote of
citizens, to replace their poorhouses with system
of pensions for those who are too old to work and
who have no means of support
1t is home rule on this one subject. 1t permits
the people to do as they please in caring for the
aged and the inhrm.
Other States have found that the pension system
is less costly than the poorhouse and that 1t takes
away from old age for those whom the years have
left without funds much of that humiliation and
misery which comes from confinement in aims
house
1t is significant that the poorhouse estab
shed as an institution in the times of Queen Eliza
beth and has not changed either its character or
..its method in three hundred years.
y The various fraternal and labor organizations
which have studied the matter have reached the
conclusion that the pension system would do much
to relieve the mental suffering of the of
our industrial system.
1t is recognized that an increasing number Of
nonproductive years without savings
They have contributed to the creation of wealth
for years
Society should, and does, accept the RESPONSE
bility for their maintenance
The amshouse is institution which carries
with it suggestion of disgrace. Many starve rather
than enter them. Aged couples prefer infinite prva-
ton to the separation that entrance would bring.
Certainly there be objections to the ctl
zens of any county which prefers to for its re-
sponsbilities by pension system rather than
through the maintenance of amshouse and its
overhead for management, handling the problem in
their way.
There can be logical argument against the
measure which permits counties, upon proper pc
tltions to vote this question.
The Fraternal Order of Eagles has made ma
tlonal campaign on this matter and the system is
in effect and working in several States.
In Indiana large group of other orders and
lodges have given approval
The only objection that be made is that it
would take away very good jobs in counties
if it went into effect. Surely the members of the
lower house will not permit this to interfere with
progress.
