President Hoover started it with the announce

dollar tariff grab and that everything would be all

ran last fall the administration, with exasperating
guarity, has announced that the worst was over

Now, at the end of seven months business seems
to have decided that less optimism and more action
is called for.

and character of germs thatit may
contain.
Unfortunately, it has been found
that certif1cation of milk is not an
adequate protection against the
possibility of undulant fever.
In a recent study by D. E. Hasley,
certified milk produced by five
diaries was examined in Detroit
and studied by the usual bacteria
logic methods.
Out of 230 samples coming from
five diaries, ten, or 4.3 per cent, con-
tanned living germs of undulant
fever, and therefore carried with
them the possibility of infection
with this disease, provided the milk
was taken without boiling or other
modification.
In some sample as many as eight
germs for each cubic centimeter Of
milk were found to be present.

Milk is one of the most important

of mineral salts and several of the

Milk can be made safe for human

In pasteurization the milk is

DR.. Howe feels that the plan is

Gunninc for the Injunction

What would we say if judge should allow the
plaintiff to sit in judgment or the defendant IN the
courtroom? This is just what our laws allow the
judge to do in contempt proceedings.

PENIS TREATY
June %

ON June %, 1868, William Penn,
~ founder of Pennsylvania, who
came to this country from England
to found a free and virtuous state,
in which the people should rule
themselves signed a treaty with
the Indians at Shakamaxon which
insured a lasting friendship with
them.
Penn, an ardent Quaker, had OBJ
tanned from the king an extensive
tract of land in America in lieu of
claim OF 5000 pounds against
the government which he had in
herited from his father.
This territory, which, in the roy
al patent, was called Pennsylvania,
Penn resolved to make a home for
his co-religionists.
Soon after arriving in America
Penn took possession of the terri
tory and laid out a site for a new
capital, which he named Phila-
delphia.
A short time later he made his
treaty with the Indians, a move
which spared the Quaker settlers
the horrors of Indian warfare
which befell some of the other
American settlements.
Not only Quakers. but prosecuted
members of other religious sects,
soon sought refuge in PENIS new
colony, where from the first. the
principle of liberation was estab-
hshed by law.
The settlement made such prog
ress that when Penn returned to
England in 1864, he left behind him
prosperous colony Of 1000 in
habitanls.

Funds

DR. HOWE also urges that indus
- trial leaders give heed to the
Importance of furnishing funds to
encourage research in the univer-
sites.
THE fellowship plan for gradu-
ate students has produced good re-
suits" he says. Under this plan an
industry sets up fund under
which graduate students of ability
are given fellowships which enable
them to continue their research.
Far too few industries appreciate
how, with a relatively small outlay,
they thus can promote good will for
themselves, can aid in the advance
ment of knowledge, and can take
steps to insure at least an increas-
ing number of well-trained men, -
he says.
Then there is the choice be-
tween employing men who have TAX
en- their advanced degree and those
who have completed only the re-
quirements for the bachelors de-
gree.
Some organizations prefer to en-
ploy bachelors and, after having as
certained what they can do to best
advantage, make it possible for them
to return to school, paying them
their full salary and tuition under
an agreement to return to the works
after two years at the college or uni
versity.
Some firms, fortunately located
in university communities, have de-
veloped other plans of part time for
further training while employed,
and make this advantage available
only to those who definitely have
proved themselves worthy

for forms sake at least, but that
need not take very long.
With all the hearings held by con-
gress, not to mention the fifteen
months of almost continuous debate,
and with all that foreign govern
ments have done, or even can be
depended on to do, along the same
line, the commission ought to be
able to decide a few of the major
points without too much delay.
A few major points would be more
than enough tC calm the troubles.
What worries those concerned is
not whether the right thing can be
done, but whether it will be done.

Times Readers Voice Vices

Editor Times-I note William
Allen Whites article in a recent
issue of your paper.
He suggested strangulation for
the new tariff bill. Why not strangle
the system that makes such bills
possible?
I am not advocating free trade,
neither do I want a protective
tariff. 1 would advocate all i'm
ports be subject to the difference
in their production, not only on
the basis of wage, but rather on the
basis of time consumed in pro-
duction of the article, as it is a
well-known fact the Americans
produce more goods to the hour
than any other nation on the
globe.
Our consumers, especially our Ia
boring classes, should vote for their
own interest, the same as our finan-
ciers and large corporations do,
thereby becoming a solidarity,
both economically and politically,
and apply the acid test to all s.
pirants for offices, from the Presi-
dent down to our county and city
offices.
Under the old Knights Of Labor
there was practically but one labor.
When Samuel Gompers came to the
head Of labor affairs, craft union
ism began until today our labor or

and economically.

No Better at Home
THE effect of the smoot- Hawley

TINE effect of the Smoot-H awley
4 bill at home has been little
less encouraging than abroad.
The stock market continues shaky,
there is as great an amount of I'M
employment as there was, if not
more, and though business condi-
tions may be regarded as generally
sound, the outlook can not be de-
scribed as thrilling.
Under such circumstances, what
do cabinet members think they can
accomplish by making optimistic
predictions?
Secretary Mellon says we have
nothing to fear, but what else could
he say, if he said anything?
Secretary Lamont says our for
eign trade is in no danger of being
wrecked, and what else could he
say?
Cabinet members are not expected
to be original, must less out of &C

LIB 10 Hoover

MO one but President Hoover
! v can do much to clear up the
mess we are in, and he can do it
only by taking full advantage of his
power under the flexible clause"
That clause gives him authority
to reorganize the tariff commission
within ninety days and to order
such revision Of specific rates, with
in certain prescribed limits, as the
commission may recommend.
But the first thing is to get the
right kind of commission-a COM
mission that Is not restricted by
partisan prejudice on the one hand,
and that is not committed to play
the part cut out for it by special
privilege on the other.

porters assert this is sound political
strategy.
I am impatient of politics in
which elections are regarded as
species of chess with no move being
made unless consideration has been
given to the precise tactics of the
adversary.
Why can't man run for office
upon a full and frank declaration
of what he himself believes, with
out waiting any word from the camp

People Are Anxious

THERE still is considerable
i doubt, both here and abroad, as
to whether President Hoover in
tends to make a material revision
in tariff rates, or whether he is
committed to the idea that bad
bill is better than no bill at all, and
that continual change is worse
than letting unfair rates alone.
This makes the character of the
commission he selects and the first
moves made by that commission of
paramount Importance.

try, but the people everywhere, are

1t might be said, however, that
the young graduate, finding himself
with two or three fairly good jobs
from which to choose instead OF
being faced with the prospect OF
hunting q job, probably refuses to
take a very pessimistic view of the
situation.
DR.. Howe is most concerned, how
ever, over the raids on college fac
ulties.
1T leads to taking from educa-
tional institutions the men upon
whom we should depend for those

IF this keeps up, how are sat-
isfactorily trained personnel to be
supplied in sufficient numbers?

thoroughbred animals soon would

under their guidance the personnel
wanted for various industrial occu-
pations.
In this the universities can as
sist by making it possible for GER

them maximum academic freedom,
close contact with industrial prob
