cation Of spark. One of the effects Of
the teachings Of the Department Of
Agriculture has been the adoption Of
means Of keeping work rooms Of this
character free of accumulations on the
tops of beams and on lodges and floors.
Ventilator systems have been installed.
Sweeping devices have been developed
to maintain cleanliness in establish
ments where dust Is a by-product of
manufacture.
It Is impossible to determine how
many lives have been saved by these
precautions, adopted in consequence
Of the Governments promotion Of
safety measures. Dust explosions, for
merry frequent. are now rare. Yet, as
demonstration illustrates,
the fact that finely pulverized material
is explosive is not yet generally under
stood. Constant care must be main
tanned. Carelessness and slackness in
industrial housekeeping must be check
ed and corrected. Workmen and super
of plants must be made to
know and constantly to remember that
there is danger in the odorless, in
visible, intangible fragments of physical
matter that float about in workshops.
BY a coincidence, on Tuesday while
this demonstration was being made at
Arlington a nRwly developed oil well in
Texas was ignited and an explosion re-
suited which took the lives of many
persons. This appears to have been
by a chance spark flying from
a collision Of two bits of metal at the
mouth of the drill. Every known pre-
caution is always taken in such cases,
and yet this tiny bit of flame may be
produced through the eccentricity OF
matter, with disastrous results.

The Presidency of France.

They do some of these things better
in France. For instance, the election OF
the President of the republic. Here in
the United States the people fuss and
fret a full year and a half ahead OF
the time about who shall be the next
occupant Of the White House. In
France. they stew for a bare fortnight
over the matter of selecting new CHIEF
executive. CASTOR Doumergue has been
President since 1924. The statutory
term of seven years expires on June ID,
vet it was not known until this week
when election day would come. 1t has
been fixed for May Is. Exactly a month
later the successful candidate takes Of
flee. Who is to run for the presidency
even now remains to be seen.
France does not elect her Presidents
by popular vote, as we do, by way of the
electoral college. Nor does a French
President begin to WELD power COM
mensurate with that of the head of this
Republic. The French Chamber OF Dep
uties and the Senate meet in joint ses-
sion on election day in the historic Pal
ace of Versailles and there select the
future chief of the state. The real
leader of the Paris government is the
premier, who holds Office by grace of
majority in the Chamber OF Deputies.
M. Doumergue has made one OF the
most popular and successful Presidents
France has had in a generation. He
could have a second term for the asking,
but, emulating the self-denial of a cele-
brated American statesman, he does not
choose tor run. Until the proposed German
Austrian customs union took French d.
plomacy by surprise, Aristide BRAND
ranked as Doumergues almost certain
successor. The veteran foreign minister
and former premier is not out OF the
running, but the feeling that Berlin and
Vienna caught BRAND mapping has put
him from the front to the rear of the
race.
Any citizen of France is eligible to
the presidency except member of a
former reigning house. The constitu-
tionaI theory is that the Chief Executive
shall be neutral in thought and deed.
Usually he has been colorless figure
head. But there have been exceptions.
Raymond Poincare, President in 1914,
when war came, was far from being
cipher. To his visit to Russia in that
Red Summer the Teutonic powers large
ly attributed the ensuing outbreak
Alexandra Millerand, who was elected
President in 1920, was so active tenant
of the Elysee Palace that Premier Her
riot compelled him to ev3euate in 1924,
when Doumergue came in.
French Presidents, through their
privilege Of presiding over cabinet
meetings, occupy highly strategic posi-
tons and witld immeasurable influence
despite, their lack of authority. CASTOR
Doumergue, who proved himself a mas
ter tactician in steering the French ship
of state through seven years of tempes-
tucus parliamentary waters, leaves office
at an hour when his political tact would
serve France well. He prefers to return
TO his vineyards in the calmer provinces,
to rest on laurels garnered during seven
years OF his country's greatest prosperity.

Washington made the best showing
in department store sales in February
Of any city in the NTH Federal Reserve
district, according to detailed 1nforma..
ton just given out by the Richmond
Reserve Bank.
sales were on but "a per cent in
comparison with the mercantile BUSH
ness done in this city in February. 1880.
Retail trade in Richmond in February
was down 10 per cent from q year ago
and in q group Of other cities was on
over is per cent. The average for the
entire area was 81 par cent under the
same month year ago.
Total sales in the first two months OF

Baltimore a. per cent and in other
cities 1914 per cent, while the average
for the fifth district was "A per cent
behind January and February, 1880.
The decline in comparison with sales

for by the generally lower prices which
have prevailed so far this year. Thirty

at the end of January, but on February
20 this year averaged 1873 per cent less
than a year ago. Part II this decline
was also due to price changes. The re-
porting stores turned their stock an
average of .266 times during February,
and between January and February
20 stocks were turned .53 times, both OF
these averages exceeding those for the
corresponding periods in 1880.

on February was higher than the per-
centage for February, 1880. Richmond
reported the highest collection percent

Grain Market
az the AnsociatedAPress.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, March 26.-Inhuenced by
rain and snow over parts OF the domes-
tic grain belt, wheat averaged slightly
lower and corn q little higher early to-
day. Liverpool reported that demand
there for wheat was insufficient to gus-
tain the market.
Opening % cents on to Il up, wheat
afterward tended to sag. Corn started
at n decline to Il advance and subSe-
quently showed gains all around.
Bears in wheat put emphasis on Llv-
erpool dispatches saying that in the
face Of firmer offerings from Argentina
and the United States, British millers
were purchasing only Aoaringly. I'M
proved crop prospects in France, owing
to continuous Springlike weather
counted also as bearish factor. On the
other hand, It was indicated that India
would not be an exporter this season
and that Russia would not offer freely
until next August. Russian shipments
this week totaled but $4,000 bushels.
Despite blizzard reports frNn some
sections West and Northwest, with pre-
dictions Of q cold wave tonight, corn
receded from early price bulges. Chi
cago receipts Of corn were larger. 167
cars, against 90 week ago and Jos q
year back. Wheat weakness acted as
q drag and so, too, did comparative
dearth of general trading in corn. Oats
we're relatively firm.
Provisions went lower, responsive 70
