people, has put the Farm Board measure up to
the Senate in such elean-cut and harmonious
fashion that the upper house is not likely to lose
much time in casting out the debenture scheme
and passing substantially the House plan.
Even Frank o. Lowden, for whom so strong
a campaign was made last summer in the agri-
cultural Middle West, and who withdrew when
the Kansas City Convention refused the equal
ization fee plan, now comes out in a strong
statement, declaring it the "duty of all sincere
friends of farm relief to cooperate with the Ad-
ministration in giving effect to it's program"
And Mr. Lowden adds: IF it should later ap-
pear that this program was inadequate, the Pre-
sident indicated in his message that the way
is open for further action"
This is good advice-good for the Senate, and
good for the dairy cooperative leaders. Only
by process trial and error can this compex
group of problems be worked out There will
be no disgrace for anyone in failure that leads
to ultimate success.-Minneapolis Journal.

HOOVER ON ENFORCEMENT
President Hoover says

President Hoover SAYS
eff law is wrong, its rigid enforcement is
the surest guaranty of it's repeal. If law is
right it's enforcement is the quickest method
for compelling respect for it.
"No individual has the right to determine
what law shall be enforced.
Respect for law and obedience to law does
not distinguish between federal and state laws
it is common conscience.
"In our desire to be merciful the pendulum
has swung in favor of the prisoner and far away
from the protection of society.
"The sympathetic mind of the American peo-
pie in it's overconcern about those who are in
difficulties has swung too far from the family of
the murdered to the family of the murderer.
eff, instead of the glamor of romance and
heroism, which our American imaginative minds
too frequently throw around those who break
the law, we would invest with little romance
and heroism these thousands of officers who are
endeavorirg to enforce the law it would itself
decrease crime.
eff Law can be upheld only by enforcement
officers, then our scheme of government it as an
end
81 am wondering whether the time has not
come to realize that are not suffering from
ephemeral crime wave but from subsistence
of our foundations.
ut is unnecessary for me to argue the fact
that the very essence of freedom is obedience
to law; that liberty itself has but one foundation,
and this is in the law.
"a surprising number of our people, other
wise of responsibility in the community, have
directed into the extraordinary nation that laws
are made for those who choose to obey them.
"Our law enforcement machinery is suffer
ing from many infirmites arising out of its
technicalities, its circumlocutions, its involved
procedures, and too often, regret, from ineff-
Gent and delinquent officials.
Twenty times as many people in proportion
to population are lawlessly killed in the United
States as in Great Britain.
'In many of our great cities murder can ap-
parently be committed with impunity.
what we are facing today is the possibility
that respect for law as law is fading from the
sensiblities of our people.
1.-The duty of enforce the law rests upon ev-
cry public official and the duty to obey it rests
upon every citizen.
after ALL the processes of criminal law en-
forcement are simply methods of installing res
pect and fear into the minds of those who have
not the intelligence and moral instinct to obey
the law matter of conscience.
THE real problem is to awaken this consc-
BUSINESS, this moral sense, and if necessary to
segregate such degenerate minds where they can
do no future harn1.'

UNDULY ALARMED

n UDOLPH LEES dispatch to the Journal
TX Friday described belated and surpris-
ing objection of cooperative dairy leaders
to the Farm Board Bill that had lust passed the
House by an all but unanimous vote. These lead
ers criticized, among other details of the measure
the turning of the purposed sterilization machine
ny over to the farmers acting through their CO.
operatives. They profess to fear that this, in
case OF failure, would bring the cooperative
marketing movement into disrepute
We can't help thinking these leaders are

the outset 1t was preached in the campaign.
approved at the polls, woven into the texture of
the measures submitted to both houses, and is
fundamental
For if there is not to be farmer control of
Sterilization, there is but one alternative, namely.
Government control, either directly or through
subsidized corporations. Mr.. Hoover rejected
the equalization fee at the outset, just as he
recently has rejected the debenture plan-both
as involving subsidized price-fxing. His reason
ing was approved at the polls.
Now the dairy leaders fear to accept the
responsibility for the co-operatives lest failure
react on them. They are, we believe, unduly
alarmed. They are worrying about something
not likely to occur and not likely if it did occur
to produce the effect of which they are afraid.
And if the Senate were now to give ear to
these pleas for radical changes in the measure.
not merely delay but deadlock would be invoked
It's rather late in the day to rewrite the measure
along new lines. The House, fresh from the

MatrOn Dies

The community of Eureka was
deeply shocked and grieved to hear
Friday morning of the death of Mrs.
George McGlenn, which occurred at
l q. m. of that day 1t is probable that
there was no better loved person III
Eureka than LeEtta, as she was called
by everyone. Having lived most of her
life here her mountaineering ex-
tended over wide part of this end
of the county and to know her was
to love her. She had an unusually en-
dearing disposition, being always
sweet and sunny, kindly, and thought
full of the welfare Of others. She was
a willing worker in the affairs of the
town and community. She belonged
to and worked with the Episcopal
Guild, the Womanfs Club, The Ameri-
can Legion Auxiliary and the Eastern
Star.
Owing to the death of her mother
in 1919 although she was but 2o
years old at the time, she assumed
the duties of mother to younger
sister and two small brothers, one
of whom was but two years old. This

This Stourbridge Lion was one Of the

was the America, built by Stephenson
along the lines Of the famous Rocket,
then under construction. He had speci-
fed an engine which weighed but three
tons, and the Lion weighed seven. He
knew that the track was inadequate to
carry this weight, as proved to be the
case. The result was that the locomo-
tive was run but once more after the
first famous trial.

the track and never again used. This
is not the case. It was run again on
September Q, as shown In letter from
Horatio Allen, dated Honesdale, Sep

I'm Motion Again"
ION Wednesday last we had the en-
CINE In motion again, and its operation
and effect upon the road carefully OBJ
served. The railroad as 1t now stands
Is not sufficiently stable for the opera
ton Of the locomotive. Before 1t Is put
to work on the road 1t ought to be
carefully examined and strengthened.
without doing so, 1t would be unsafe to
put the engine at work"
from the track and stored beside 1t
under a rough covering of boards for 20
years. It was then dissembled, the
boiler put to use in the company's shops
and other parts adapted to various
services. The boiler and most OF the
pieces came into poJseSion OF the
Smithsonian Institution In 1889. and 1t
Is now on exhibition, partially reas-
sembled. The engine had cost a lot OF
money-$2,91490 delivered-and with
only its weight against 1t, 1t deserved

lengths, set on edge. CroGsties set On
posts anchored In stone or on stone
piers were placed ut intervals Of 10 ana
is feet. The stringers we're given pro-
lection from wear BY an iron strap, IA
inches wide, fastened to the weed with
ordinary wood screws. The iron straps
were about "a inch thick and lSa feet
long.
Hardwood Used In Track.
Later the roads were improved BY
adding O strip of hardwood between the
hemlock and the iron straps. Az the
time this seemed about the hest railway
construction that was consistent with
economic conditions. Thus when the
Stourbridge Lion proved too heavy for
the track the obvious solution vas to
discard the locomotive. And disap-
pointment though this must have been,
1t led to American development Of
American locomotives to meet cur ovn
conditions. From that time on We
have been our own locomotive huildera
and our engines have developed alone
distinctly American lines. In this fall
ure there was victory.

Nothing can be more worthy Of cele-
biation. Before the steam engine We
were q Nation Of cities along navigable
streams. Without this form Of trans
portation great inland cities would have
been impossible. 1t has made one part
OF our land equally accessible with an
other. The fortunate turn which power
transportation took prevented Us from
becoming a Nation Of isolated COM
munities. 1t Is interesting to contem-
plate what the development might have
been If good highways had preceded the
