New York. June 5.-R-Sometime
after June 20, the first birthday Of
Charles Augustus Lindbergh, Jr., his
parents will leave him at Englewood,
N. j.. with his grandparents, Senator
and Mrs. Dwight W. Morrow. and fly
over the Pacific ocean for a vacation.

in the air.
The Lindberghs flew from Has
brouck Heights, N. j., Thursday to
Hicksville, where they luncted at the
Long Island country aviation club.
The colonel said details for his Pa

about a month.
Mrs. Lindbergh went up for 4 solo

and later the couple flew in two
planes to North Beach, where Col.
Lindbergh left in the Lockheed tor

Mrs. Lindbergh flew back to Hicks
Vile alone and Col. Lindbergh called
for her in his automobile. She still;
was flying when he got there. They
then motored to Senator MorroW's
home.
While details are unsettled the Pa
cific flight probably will be mace
from the Alaskan coast over the
Aleutian islands, across the 600-mile
stretch of ocean and over the TIP Of
Kamatchka, along the Eurile islands

This is the same route the army

Utility Regulation

Killing the proposal before the legislature
to place utility holding companies under state
control merely postpones the question OF
whether the people are to control utilities or
the utilities rule the people.
The assertion of utility representatives
that there is no need of such law and that
the commission, if it wishes, can now obtain
all the facts on which to base rates, is an in
dictment of the commission.
The truth stands out that the holding
companies of many of the utilities are bleed
ing the people white for outrageous rake
offs that are hidden, or at least not con-
sidered, in the fixing of rates.
If there is no need of holding company
law then there is necessity for new COM
mission which will more closely watch the
public interest.
If holding companies are essential to
modern financing Of utility expansion, then
the people need either new weapons or new
protectors against utility greeds.
The public knows that rates or utility
service are too high. They know that they
are paying on uninvested dollars and for
service never rendered.
If the utilities are so poorly managed as
to require the high priced advice of holding
company experts, then stockholders, not con-
sumers, should pay the penalty for bad man.
agement.
The merchants of this city and the large
users of electric power know that they are
too heavily taxed since the merger and that
the large burden comes at time when prices
of everything else, whether commodities or
labor, is at low level.
If it be true that the present commission
has power to investigate all the unwarranted
charges by these holding companies, then
the present commission has utterly failed IN
it's duty to the public.
There can be but one logical step. Ii
holding companies escape regulation the peo-
pie need new regulators. A measure abol'
ishing the present board and naming a
new one which would be responsible to the
people, instead of fawning in fear before the
political power of electricity, gas, water and
Transportation, should find favor and sup
port from those who rebel against unfair
ness and worse.

The American Civil Liberties Union

one of the sharpest sections of the Fish commit
tee report on Communism relates to the American
Civil Liberties Union. We may well investigate this
as sample Of the accuracy and fairness OF the report
as whole The majority report thus describes the
union;
.oIhe American Civil Liberties Union is affiliated
closely with the Communist movement in America,
and fully 80 per cent of its efforts are in behalf OF
Communists who have come into conflict with the law
r. claims to stand for free speech, free press and
free assembly, but it is quite apparent that the main
functions of the A. c. L. u is to attempt to protect
the Communists in their advocacy OF force and vio-
lence to overthrow the government
Roger N Baldwin, its guiding spirit makes no at
tempt TO hide his friendship for the Communists and
their principles :"
AS all informed persons know, nothing would be
more wide of the fcats than to call Roger Baldwin
Communist or a man personally sympathetic with
Communists He is an extreme libertarian, who
oathes all the RECOMMENDATION and rigorous control OF
life and opinion which exists under Communism. He
stands at the very opposite extreme of opinion from
Foster and the Communists
If the American Civil Liberties Union puts in most
Of its time defending Communists, which is an ex-
sgqeration this is only because the Communists are
the most prosecuted class in American system to-
day.
IF the government would let Communists alone to
entov their constitutional rights there would be no
need for their frequent defense by the Civil Liberties
Union or anybody else
The Civil Liberties Union has defended the Ku-

And he has found in DR.. Paul NJ Pearson OF Gvarth-

The Outlook for Liberalism

The outlook for liberalism in the next presidential
election isn't so good The internal prohibition issue

both progressves and reactionaries.
Some men who are progressive along general lines
are reactionary and decidedly nlberal on prohibi-
ton Take two of the highest class public servants
and progressive statesmen in the senate-Senators
Norris and Walsh of Montana-and they are reac-
tionary on prohibition and its violation of the
Bill of Rights.

DAILY HEALTH SERVICE
Pure Water Is of Utmost Importance

to do the best that can be done
with the supply that is available.
From the hygienic standpoint,
freedom from germs and poisonous
materials is of the utmost in1por-
lance.
This is accomplished by avoid
ing contamination of the water sup
ply from human sewage, and by
making sure that the tanks and
pipes through which the water
passes are not possible sources of
lead contamination.
To keep water clear, it some
times has to be filtered, because
visible dirt is unappetizing and
even dangerous, since it will cover
signs of bacterial growth.
Because of the fact that most of
the water used in the middle west
is derived from surface water, it is
likely to be turbid and dirty and
therefore require some filtration.
Good clear water has neither
taste nor odor, whereas turbid and
cloudy water is likely to have both
taste and odor. because of the sub
stances that contaminate it.

1T SEEMS TO ME BY H FE01%

COMMISSIONER MULROONEY
~ is quoted as saying that he
would like to see all cabarets and
night clubs in New York closed by
/ a. m.
This feeling undoubtedly is found
ed on the fact that one resort
housed a fatal shooting affray a
few days ago in the early morning.
That seems to me no more than
coincidence. l hardly think that
gangsters can be reformed by a cur
few law.
Nor is it fair that the rest of us
who are respectable and law
abiding should be all tucked in at
any such unearthly hour as / a. m.
After all, it is the function of the
police to keep order, both day and
night. There is no reason why
city might not have available shell
ter for the wakeful and still remain
crimeless.
There is, as far as I know. moth
ing essentially sinful in remain
ing alert and abroad in the early
hours.
This move to make us all pull
down the shades and shutters before
the shank of the evening appears
to me a confession of weakness.

Albert 6. Fall A gain

1t is not very important to any one except Albert
S. 'Fall-and maybe not to hnl-whether he succeeds
or fails in the attempt ne is making to overturn his
conviction on a charge of accepting bride
The most Fall can win now is a technical victory,
the right to be let alone for what years remain and
line in history saying that after all his conviction
was set aside and that he never served the sentence
imposed upon him.
There are things in the record that he never can
change.
There is written, through the public documents
OF the last ten years. the story Of his part in the
unsavory naval oil leases and the finding of the
United States supreme court that his leases were
tainted with fraud and corruption
If the courts sustain the verdict against Fall they
will add little to the national verdict returned long
ago. If they reverse the jurys findings, this other
verdict will stand unchanged
Falls punishment of public disgrace began seven
years ago. No man old and sick as he ever will
go to jail, no matter what happens; and no matter
what happens, the punishment already imposed can
not be lightened.

A Place to Look

INDEED, there would seem to be
l. some benefit for police purposes
in allowing late hours to certain
number of establishments.
If resorts exist which may attract
the crininally minded, the officers
of the law at least know somewhere
to look for culprits when the peace
is twisted out of joint.
To be sure, there would be fewer
holdups and deeds of violence if no
one we're permitted on the streets
after II p. m. There would be an
even smaller number if any ordi-
nance compelled each one of us to
stink to his home at 8 or 8.
But it seems to me unfair that
the rest of us should be punished
for the violations of few. do not
believe that we should all be pressed
down into a village schedule just
because there are willful men with
whom Mulrooney can not cope.
I do not think we need. sleepy
citizens so much as we require a
police force for more Wakeful.
Of late New York has taken quite
a pounding as a community given
over to crime, materialism, and self
ish indifference. None of these ac-
cusa5ions is founded securely.

Sewage Disposal

nR. WILSON also is one of the
~ worlds chief experts upon the
subject of sewage disposal. He de-
veloped the principles of the acti-
waited sludge process that made DOS
sible the great plant at Milwaukee,
a plant which chemical experts
have called the most efficient in the
world. The society says of this
plant:
ut separates 100000, 900 gallons of
sewage daily into water purer than
many municipal drinking waters
and 100 tons daily of dry, granu-
lar fertilizer that has been in great
demand at about $40 ton.

City Hospitality

TN a good many ways New York is
l. more hospitable than other cities
and towns. This is still a place
where it's no disgrace to be a for
eigner.
I know that's used as reproach
against us. I've heard the speeches
of the politicians who say, New
York is an alien city" and wait
till they hear from America" and
all that.
But, after all, it used to be the
American custom to welcome people
who came to us from strange lands
and distant shores.
We had some sense of the strug-
gle they had undergone to get to
us. we caught some CLINT of the
hope with which they trusted US.

freedom and, because we were the
land Of freedom, the land of OPP
portunity. And we felt that here

/ In a review of the subject recent
ly made by DR.. John F. Morton in
Hygeia, he points out that private
wells need protection against pol
luton, whereas driven wells in
sandy soils invariably are almost
safe.
However, the surest and best
method of safeguarding the quality
of public water supply is by ar
tiflcial publication.
Storage of the water in the
reservoir or basin aids publication
by permitting settling of the water
and use of the material from the
surface.
In addition, it is possible to have
filtration for the removal of con-
tamination of various types.
Finally, COLONIZATION can be Used
to kill harmful bacterial Amount
of the chemical used has been
shown to be harmless to human
health, and if properly used on a
water supply should not contribute
to it either a definite taste or
odor.
