THE BURDEN OF TARIFF
 PROOF

Newly revised rules of the re- vamped Tariff Commission have it that in future the burden of proof will be with manufacturers to show that they are not receiving enough protection.
 They will be required to submit statements of information before tn- vestigations are undertaken.
 Fortunately, at least, their figures and statistics" will not be accepted as bona fide evidence and there will at least be an investiga- ton before recommendations are made to the President for action under the flexible provisions of the tariff law.
 Such investigations" as the Con- mission can make are not likely to be of an improved variety over those in the past. It has been extremely difficult to obtain accurate figures regarding the cost of production ot certain articles abroad, and in view of lack of such statistics it is bare ly possible that the figures Of in terested manufacturers will have considerable weight with the Com mission.

DARROW AND PUBLIC
ENEMIES"

Those who have found it difficult to follow Clarence Darrow in the past are having increasing difficult ty in understanding his latest exit from retirement in Chicago, where he has burst forth as a staunch de- fender of Known gangsters" whom the city is seeking to drive out of the racketeering stronghold under d vagrancy jaw as public enemies" MT. Darrow, appearing in court in company with other distinguished lawyers, calls the campaign of the city. through Judge John H. Lyle, an outrage
 If it is an outrage to take sum- mary action against persons whom the city regards as known public enemies then it is equally an out rage to be too particular regarding the niceties with which their activi- ties are prevented. Surely. it is at least an outrage to have public decency and security continually flouted, as has been the practice in Chicago.
 Mir. Darrow doubtless thinks that the city, before it jails public enc mics as vagrants, should go about it in the legal technical way of proving serious charges This is ex- actly the legal process that has been a sport of the gangsters. one which has received their contempt. They have become adopts at defying the law because they have come to understand the law and it's techni- calities, it's lawyers fighting over pin points and it's judges giving criminals the benefit of many doubts, offer no menace to their illegal rackets and their consistent murders.
 In spite of everything Chicago has made up her mind to rid herself in measure of the excessive number of public enemies within it's borders. It is regrettable that such brilliant mind as that possessed by MT. Darrow cannot help rather than hinder in the process: but by all practical methods of reasoning 1t should be done.

CT Gilbert, once warned that some thing drastic needs to be done to avoid the extravaganza within the states with federal funds. It Is now said that even MT. Gilbert did not suggest anything as drastic as the new financial program being insti- tuted by the Chancellor.
 Just as Mayor Quigley has been trying to lift burdens from home owners, so the new financial pro- gram purposes to lift tax burdens from industry and farming; and to this end farms worth less than $5,- 900 will be exempt from taxation all together. That, we are inclined to think, is quite an original contribu- ton to taxation history. In our coun- try such procedure, if done direct ly, unquestionably would be desig- mated as class legislation by the Supreme Court and nullified as un- constitutional.

ALL OF US AND THE SERIES

Today, weather permitting, the big noise starts. Everybody in the least interested in national earth ouakes-at least mental earthquakes knows what it Is all about. Every body has read as much as they need to know about the contending states men of the diamond who will meet in Philadelphia to begin the annual conclave as to which galaxy of pro- fessional baseball players-those from St. Louis or those from Phila- delphia-are to be the champions of the world, or indeed of the universe.
 Our bet Is that-Well, as we were saying, the series promises to be startling in it's brilliancy, and per haps a record or two will be smash ed.
 The only kick we have to deliver is that the rumpus sadly interferes with connected thought upon other weighty topics. It is more difficult for us for instance, 10 write an article. an editorial, or whatever they are, about Mayor Quigleys city administration or the lack of some thing or other in the control Of street traffic at such a time. Just as we get down to connected line O. thought and begin putting down q sentence supposed to be as good if not better than any of it's fore runners, Ilong comes a shout and some crazy loon yells that so-and-so has made a home run; or perhaps. Whats s-his-name has struck out.
 This is disconcerting, to say the least Added to that contingency is i the sad fact that the weather some times is cool during the World

THE LOW DOWN STOCK MARKET

What causes stock prices to go down beyond the understanding of even the so-called experts is like wise beyond our ken. But we think there is something to the assump- ton there has been considerable forced selling by those who have hypothecated stocks as collateral with banks.
 It is also logical to surmise that the effects of past optimism Is be- ing felt, resulting in a realization that stock values in past months did not go to the levels consonant with the actual extent of the slump during the summer. If that be true then the descent of prices during the past week or so must be re- garded as a belated recession not actually having much in common with the present condition of busi- tness, which has shown a Noticeable improvement, though seasonable, in certain lines.
 The speech of former Vice Presi- dent Dawes in London evidently was intended to be an optimistic talk. The effect was directly the opposite. The trouble with the speech was it forecast good times too far in the future, when it had been hoped that the harassed public would not need to wait that long. And at any rate, MT. Dawes, although a banking ex- pert, really knows no more about it than the other experts, financial writers, editors editorial writers or the general public.

MAYORS GOOD SUGGESTION
 ON TRAFFIC COPS

When we disagree with the Mayor or we may be wrong. And when we agree with him we still may be right or we may be wrong. This is a queer world for mayors and news papers.
 It is not likely that we run the risk of violent dissent from any one when we unreservedly commend the Mayor for stating that a traffic policeman in front of the City Hali or therea bouts during rush traffic conditions would be greatly superior to the present system of deaf, dumb and blind traffic lights.
 Traffic lights no doubt have their place. But to expect them to take the place of''flesh and blood" di- rection of traffic on important down town intersections is simply expect ing too much.
 The plea is made that there are not sufficient policemen to take care of traffic downtown and also at the schools during the noon rush. That strikes US as being no excuse at all. The way out of this dilemma, if such 1t can be called, is for the city 10 employ sufficient policemen.
 On the one hand the city is trying : to give employment to men in or der to aid them through the hard times. On the other hand there is the plea that the city lacks sufficient traffic policemen to carry cut the Mayors ideas.
 Why not employ a few more! Supernumeraries would do.
 To regulate traffic properly is the city's duty. And the word "properly' does not mean entire dependence upon mechanical invention.

THE MAYORS DILEMMA


 Mayor Quigley was nominated and elected upon a platform that he would not conent to a raising of the tax rate. He has zealously main tained this platform ever since. Even today, he is said to maintain. he will not consent to a raising Of the tax rate.
 This is a good enough platform for any man, and we sincerely hope it may be carried out. We confess to doubt whether it would material ize, however; and did so from the start.
 There must be a reason why the Mayor is determined to obtain a fund for welfare relief through voluntary gifts of percentages of salaries of city employees and others rather than boldly announcing that the money needed for this purpose might come from taxation. The req son is that the Mayor is anxious that nothing additional be added to tax ation if it can possibly be avoided.
 Money collected from firemen, police school teachers and other public officials-and from the pub- lic-will not come from taxation and will serve the objects in view. Whether the sum thus derived will be sufficient is another question. When one listens to the Mayor s figures on the extent of welfare activities necessary one is inclined to come to the conclusion that the money to be derived from such sources will be insufficient.
 It is the Mayors show, however and if he fails to obtain enough money for the purposes intended that will not add to his prestige; that Is to say that, if after all the agitation and discussion, the sum to be obtained remains insufficient, peo- pie will conclude the Mayor adopt ed the wrong method in the first place. Such blame may not be an i'm portant blemish on the city admin istration but it will be noticeable.
 Although doubting the efficacy of the method we, in common with others, freely wish him success. Had there been an outspoken statement at the beginning of the failure ot Hoover prosperity, however, to the effect that money is needed and that the city will have to provide il from the tax funds, much unneces- sary strain would have been avoid ed, civic welfare work would have progressed satisfactorily, and there would have been no unreasonable criticism as g result. People would rave been intelligent enough to realize that no other method would

HIGH STANDARD OF LIVING"

If how much money one spends on living expenses or the outlays needed to conduct business incident to living are criterions upon which l to base the much discussed high standard of living" the Eskimo families in the Far North who col lect and sell white fox furs must possess the worlds highest standard.
 It would be pretty difficult to re- gard such folks as possessing a high CT standard of living than Amer jeans; and certainly not If the con- forts and conveniences of life arc included. But the Eskimos referred to, passing deductions upon what they expend for luxuries, certainly spend money far more freely than even well-to-do Americans.
 The reason may be that "easy come, easy go" applies; but this also applies to Americans and others. That rule suff1ces for virtu- ally all races with the certainty of the law of supply and demand" or the law of gravitation.
 Here are Eskimo who live amid ice and snow nearly the year around. But the white fox fur trade is good and they seem to have nine-tenths of a monopoly on it. Many of the families have an income of $40, 900 a year; and they don't seem to know what to do with that much money. Consequently where their forefathers got along very Nsi ! without much heat, they import coal at $500 a ton, buy radios at many times the prices they cost nearer to civilization, and are in the market for any other kind of mod ern appliances made, except perhaps electric refrigerators. And pay ing $375 for an airplane ride from the Herschel Islands to Edmonton. Alberta, has become quite an or dinary feat There was a time when no Eskimo were ever seen in Ed monton; but if the airplane jaunts continue in popularity there may yet be as many Eskimo shoppers as there are Indians.
 The other day, however, we read story that the Eskimo were being ruined" through their contacts with the white race. This can only be ex- plained by the possibility they may take more back with them on their airplane shopping trips than the white mans mechanical toys.
 What we are trying to dessiminate as information. however, Is the fact , that the mere handling of large sums of money does not necessarily constitute a high standard of civili- zation. This mistake, we think, is too frequently made and needs cor rection.

Series and at least one of the win dows of the Herald building is minus glass while the Playograph is kept in motion so as to edify the throngs that gather along Church street. These cool breezes penetrate right through the building, interfer- ing mostly with what we happen to be doing at the time. Perhaps some kindhearted merchant will loan us an overcoat and a pair of typing gloves while the series is under way.
 All of which is to advertise to the world that we are fully aware that the World Series is under way. We deliberately avoided going into de- tails about the chances, etc., of the Cardinals or the Athletics because perhaps we would not agree with all the baseball experts and they might turn out to be right in the premises. All we have to say in closing is that regardless of all the inevitable interferences thrust into our path by the noise, commotion, wind, weather and blah of this ". k. World Series, we intend not to cur tail the customary quantity or ouali- ty of our contributions to this column. If worst comes to worst the Series will have to go hanged; we intend to work right through it- when we can.

TIGHTENING GERMAN
 FINANCES

Despite all that Adolf Hitler and his irresponsible radicals may say in Germany about a new revolution and a Third Empire. accompanied by heads toppling in blood-soaked sand, the firm of HindeHberg and Bruening is still doing business a. the old stand and have put ne" line of goods in the show windows.
 The new financial program an- nounced by the chancellor seems to be a we'll directed effort to pull the Republic out of the monetary slough; and it must be admitted by every impartial observer that the method 10 be undertaken is scien- tific and in consonance with the needs of stability and sound govern ment.

 The framers of the Constitution at Weimer seem to have been wise heads; they must have foreseen difficulties such as the present, when 1 dictatorial powers needed to be ap- piled to get somewhere in a nation not yet entirely accustomed to demo- cratic government.
 The Germans intend to make un- employment self-supporting under i this new plan. That most assuredly is something to examine with inter i est. It requires no genius to con- clude that in a nation where unem- ployment is heavy system of state insurance to the unemployed would make a heavy drain upon public funds. The Germans intend to levy sufficient taxes upon those at work to take care of those and their families who are out of work. That is a better system, We think than Mayor Quigleys method, although the Mayor is endeavoring to do the same thing without a law and in an indirect way.
 One of the hard knots in German finance has been the system where by the federal government makes pawn ents to state treasuries. This makes it possible for the constitu- l ent states of the Republic to levy less taxes; but it has encouraged them to make unwise expenditures : on public improvements and other "luXuries," and to such an extent | that the separations agent, $.

ROOSEVELT'S DOUBLE HAZARD

What gives to the New York campaign more piquancy than to any other being carried on in the various states is the likelihood that if MT. Futile defeats Governor Roosevelt the latter's chances for the Democratic nomination to the presidency may go glimmering.
 MT. Futile, however, has a hard row to hoe. The handicap incident to the slump is considerable in itself; and the drys seem determined to set up their own ticket in revenge for their treatment by the Republican convention in refusing to so to the polls with their prohibition ideals.
 Yet MT. Tuttles chances are bet ter than had the Republicans heark- ened to the drys and adopted dry platform. In such contingency their chances in New York this year would have been like a cipher without a rim.
