perience has given him an intimate
knowledge of the problems that lie in
municipal land purchase and through
diligent and willing association with
the citizens bodies of Washington he
has come to know their likes and dis

the District has to lose the benefits of
this knowledge and tact and soon must
begin training" another officer in the
ways of Washington.
Maj. Donald A. Dawson, the senior
Assistant Engineer Commissioner, has
completed only half his term with the
District, and Capt. Hugh Dram, the
third assistant, is comparatively new
arrival. Fortunately for Washington,
these two officers will remain on duty
here for several years.
While there are occasions when there
is compensation in the thought that

served the District in the past were not
permanent fixtures, such is not the case
with the present personnel. The

slant change in important admins

regulations, Is not altogether salts

The Cheney Award.

For sheer bravery and self-sacrifice
CONGRATULATIONS are in order for Lieut..
William Mathemy of the Army Air
Service. This flyers act of heroism has
just been recognized by the Cheney
Board of Award for the most outstand-
ing and meritorious feat performed by
an Army aviator in 1929. Last Sum-
mer Lieut.. Mathemy with two COM
panions was flying over Nicaragua in
a big bomber. Suddenly the left motor
caught on fire. The situation was des-
perate because beneath them lay an
impenetrable jungle. Full throttle was
given the remaining motor by Mathenny,
who was plotting. Under the extra
strain this engine "froze," leaving the
three men without motive power. With
a dead stick" skillful landing was
made despite the obstacles. Matheny
and one of his companions were thrown
clear, but the third member Of the
party, stunned from the impact, was
TANNED in the cabin of the burning
plane. Regardless of his own injuries
and of the fact that his clothes were
saturated with gasoline, Mathemy sue
ceeded in pulling his friend clear of
the wreck. but by this time he was
himself afre. That night the oficer
who had been rescued died from his
burns. while Mathemy was confined to

Lieut.. Mathemy richly deserves the
award that has come to him. He takes
his place In the ranks of those who in
times of crisis have utterly forgotten

to aid the hslnless regardless of danger.

The Turn of the Tide.

President Hoover yesterday announced
at the White House that there has
been distinct increase of employment
all over the country within the last ten
days; the tide of employment has
changed in the right direction" This
announcement was based upon a report
| from the Department of Labor to the
, effect that for the first time since the
speculative market crisis employment
has increased substantially throughout
the country. While this statement was
being made at the White House more
than one hundred representatives Of
key industries in the construction, build
ing equipment and supply fields, in con-
ference with the Secretary Of Com
merce, were giving assurances that the
real period of emergency has passed for
them, with application of President
Hoover's prescription of work" as the
only formula necessary to assure con-
tinued prosperity.
This is tangible evidence Of the
turn of the tide, which was ebbing in
the Autumn at a rate that despite all
expressions of confidence seriously men
aced the country with disaster. When
President Hoover called certain groups
into conference in this city representing
transportation, labor, manufacturing
and finance, for the purpose OF stimu-
lating a Nationwide cooperation in
industry to check the unfavorable drift
of conditions, it was recognized that
only through actual operations on
large scale in construction Of all kinds,
in re-equipment, in replacement. giving
employment to a normal number Of
millions of workers of all grades, could
the country be spared from costly
stretch of hard times" business de-
preston, idleness and suffering.
It is now evident that the programs
of construction and employment agreed
upon in the course of those conferences
are being instituted. The railroads are
ordering supplies for new lines OF tracks,
new rolling stock, new power, and
terminal improvements. The mills are

cial business necessarily feels the effect
of continued, If not increased, employ
ment.
The country Is not poorer in resources
or in actual wealth now than it was in

lapsed. There has been heavy over

a great shifting of ownerships. But the
actual, tangible, real wealth is not de-
pleted. The will to work is not lesSened.
Now it would appear that the oppor-
tunity to work, which for time was
diminished, is restored. If that condi-
ton continues for three months longer
the country will be "out Of the woods"

with small chance, under the present
arrangements. to prevent repetition OF
to assure correction or punishment.
Good taste sufflces to restrain obnox-
ious utterances in the main. The bust
ness sense of advertising broadcasters
holds in check the performers who, UNI
der their hire, might otherwise engage
in unpleasant freedom of speech. Even
so, there is a good deal in the air now
adays that might far better be left on
the silent side Of the microphone. And
yet there is no positive way of restraint
or discipline
The country balks at the idea of a
censorship. Still, there must be some
sort of supervision lest, even momenta-
rily, foul-mouthed orators or smart-aleck
singers pollute the air for millions of
helpless listeners. One can of course
always tune of when the broadcaster
t'gets rough" But it should not be
thus to cut the current mere
ly to prevent the spelling of a pro-
gram by incidental and unforgivable
grossness of speech.

Polluting the Air by Radio.

Much agitation has been caused by
TIE antics of an independent radio
brosdcaster in Southern city who,
defying the authorities, State and
Federal, has persisted in conducting a
series Of personal talks on the air
couched in informal If not actually pro-
fame language. He operates his own
station. He AYERS his right TO use it
as he wishes, and to employ any Ian
guage he prefers so long as he does not
become positively obscene Finally, as
concession to public opinion, but not
in obedience to any authority, he has
agreed to modify his parts of speech"
and cut out some Of the obnoxious
words which have heretofore strongly
tinctured his discourse. At the same
time he has declared that If he is press
ed by any authority In regulation Of his
broadcasting he will remove his plant
over the border into Mexico, where
there is no official radio restriction, and
operate on q wildcat wave length that
will cut through the American atmos-
phere and mess up all other broad
casting.
This case is not especially important
in itself. for the offenses of the tnde-
pendent broadcaster-who is using the
air TO propagate his peculiar personal
views on matters in general and on GER
tain trade conditions in particular-are
not grave ones. The language to which
objection has been fled is not as Often
sive as much that may be heard any
time, anywhere in the course of ordi-
nary conversation. But it is important
that under the present method or ex-
tent Of Official supervision the air Is
free for all who have the means to set
up powerful sending stations and to
use them for anything they may wish
to say. regardless Of public morals OF
safety.
This matter brings up q question Of
moment. How far can the law 60 ir

Turnover in Army Officers.

Maj. Layson E. Atkins, Assistant
Engineer Commissioner in charge of
purchase Of municipal real estate and
chairman of the special committee now
engaged in acquiring the site for the
municipal center, has received orders
that will transfer him to Alaska in the
Spring. He has been an eficient and
hard working officer and his transfer
is a distinct loss to the District. It
serves to call attention again to the
handicaps to the municipality often In
Cured through the regular turnover

AS soon as an Army officer assigned to
the municipal government learns the
ropes and becomes familiar with the

work.

The Lump Sum Bill.

The Cramton lump sum bill has been
again introduced in the House as it has
been for the past several years and the
Citizens Advisory Council intelligently
alert to the dangers inherent in this
viciously unfair measure, has voiced its
opposition.
The purpose of the Cramton bill is to
amend substantive law, substituting for
the principle of a fixed ratio between
the District and the Federal Govern
ment in appropriating for the Capital
the lump sum of 100000 as the con-
tribution of the United States.
The bill would enable Congress law
fully and indefinitely to continue the
practice, inaugurated six years ago and
consistently followed since by means
OF riders on appropriation bills, of SHOW
ing the mounting load of Capital main
tensnce and development to the shoul-
ders of the Washington tax-paying COM
munity. thus releasing the United States
from its rightful share Of this growing
responsibility.
AAS OAA 0OAA0 oO4CAAAtllg p1dCC NOn-
gress on record as adopting the inequi-
table and economically fallacious point
Of view that no matter what it costs to
build and maintain the Federal city, the
allotment of the United States will be
only 100000.
The bill would withdraw the last YES
tige Of protection now left the members
Of this community by the Congress of
1878, which in lieu Of the American
principle of taxation with representa-
ton, pledged the Nation to match, dol
lar for dollar, the amount in taxation
demanded from the voteless residents of
the District
In 1924, the. last year that the law
ful system Of fixed ratio was carried
into effect, the United States con-
tributed 1914 per cent to District ex-
penses, according to one system of
figuring, and 1921 per cent according
to another system. In 1880, six years
later, the United States contributed
25.26 per cent to the District, according
to one officially adopted system Of ngur-
ing, and 2s.1 per cent, according to an
other.
Each year the ratio of participation
by the United States in the expenses of
the District tends to decrease. Each
year there is a corresponding increase
In the proportionate load hoisted on the
politically impotent taxpayers of the
District. The Cramton bill, naming So
100000 as the fixed sum to be paid by
the United States. regardless of what
the total bill for Capital maintenance
may be, would indefinitely continue this
steady reduction in the proportionate
contribution by the United States.
The unrepresented citizens of WASH
ington rest their faith that this measure
viii be confined TO deserved desuetude
in the able and thinking members of
the House and Senate, who will always
bear In mind the fact that their exclu-
sive power to legislate for the people Of
Washington carries with it the great
moral responsibility OF legislating fairly,
justly and wisely.
