Causes of Depression

One important cause of business depression was, of course, too rapid expansion of indus trial production. Every economist now rec ognizes this fact Less recognition has been given to an equally important cause, the fail ure of population to continue its former in- crease If the population had been growing as usual large amount of the excess produc- ton would have been consumed. There has been severe restriction in immigration. There has also been big decline in the birth rate Both causes, working together and perhaps increasing in effectiveness, not only slow up our accustomed increase but threaten to bring the population to a standstill in another gen. eration or two.
 The outlook is not necessarily dark on this account, though many who are imbued with the American doctrine of limitless growth will think so It will be necessary however, for business leaders and public men to reckon with these facts from now on. If the nation is definitely committed to drastic immigration bars and birth control, there is going to be very different set-up from what we have been led to expect.

National Plan For Business

Sentiment seems to be growing that the business of the country needs some kind of system for central planning and direction, so that dangerous extremes can be avoided and depressions prevented. Some authorities claim that the soviet government of Russia is mak ing more progress than America at this time because the soviet union has five year plan for national development to which all their people are forced to conform while American industry is run on go-asyou- please basis The American people, however will never stand it to be drilled and terrorized the way the Russians are. Planning for our industry will have to depend upon voluntary action Four points of such national planning for business were recently suggested by Colonel Franklin president of the Associated Indus tries of Massachusetts, as follows
 l. Industry must plan for
 steady employment of its workers
 2. Governments can aid by
 planning public works so that they
 can be prepared for periods of unem-
 ployment.
 }. Banks and financial leaders
 must curb speculation.
 4 Industry must control out
 put through trade associations
 If the banks and financial leaders could curb the speculative fever which keeps burn ing up, they would have cured the worst sim gle cause of industrial depresslons. And when the industries begin to load the eoun- try up with greater production of commodi- ties than the people can afford to buy, the trade organizations should show the red light of the danger signal The country needs to avoid extremes of sentiment, When it IS blue and Respondent, it needs some leadership of courage. When it is hilariousy hitting the high spots on top of the wave, it needs re- straning words of caution.

Washington-Poli speculation | anent his major movements annoys and sometimes incenses President Hoover, but there is no getting a ! round the fact that this debt sus- pension plan is likely to have tine most important domestic political eff ] feet among all the things Hoover has done.
 The presidents friends in jour- | nalism and in politics say that. Laudable as it may be to forget | politics at certa.l times and obvious as it is that domestic political con alterations did not inspire the pro- posal for a one-year debt-reparations
 moratorium, you can't exactly ignore the fact that it make a difference in the result of the next presi-
 dential campaign and is reasonably sure to change a widely anticipated picture of the next session of Con- gress.
 Strengthens Position.
 As far as the worldwide depres- sion is concerned-and that Is what concerns everyone, in and out of
 politics, the most-general opinion is that the moratorium is reason ably certain to do more good than
 harm. Snags may be encountered to war dthe end of the suspension period and thereafter on account of the uncertainty as to what should next be done about debts and rep arations, but Hoover's friends are convinced that his political position already has been strengthened at a time when it needed that badly and they hope that the results of the moratorium will be so obciously | beneficial that the president can be pictured as a stateman who stepped | in and saved the world at a moment | of crisis.
 Republican politicians, naturally | enough, will make what political | capital they can out of the Hoover | move. The non-partisan aspect | which MT Hoover has undertaken
 to give it also attached to a con- siderable degree to his conference
 of business and industrial leaders | after the stock market panic, his | congressional relief program and the American participation in the
 London naval conference. But even
 though the success of those meas. ures provides as many controversial questions the republicans have boasted of Hoover's part in them
 all. And they have right to do
 so because it's their administration
 Even if the moratorium doesn't pan | cut as we'll as hoped the next cam-
 paign will find the Hoover forces believing and insisting that their
 leader saved the country from q worse panic than we had, averted
 much more unemployment and mis-
 cry, headed off another naval race
 and finally prevented world imam
 cial and economic chaos.

 Burke, counsel for the republican

Pollution Evils

N Continued harping on the subject of stream pollution and its correction may tire people, but it must be kept in mind that the ellmlna- @tion of fresh and salt water pollution is one of the greatest problems of the day So much so is it that special action is being taken against New York city to speed up its work of installing an nclnerator that will take care of the cty's garbage, A short time ago the Supreme Court through the finding of Special Master appointed by it ordered New York to cease pollution of New Jersey beaches by dumping garbage into the waters of New York harbor or the Atlantic ocean.
 :. The city has already started it's plans for an sineinerator plant but it is believed that elgh- teen months will elapse before it can be built and put into operation. In the interim 1t IS suggested that garbage be placed in coal barges and lowed 100 miles to and there emptied Perhaps even this experiment will prove costly. There is no telling what will happen to this refuse even though it may be confined to the ocean as far from land as % miles However, it seems the only solution. as dis posal of the city's garbage must continue Tn some method until it can be burned.
 F4t. l ne SlludllOH III IStW olh ID chs 'ii"I invites emulation in other towns of the na- ton. Most of us are not vexed by garbage disposal, but we are by sewage and factory wastes. The story of stream pollution Tn Connecticut is now linked with that of New Jersey and New York through tbe medium of the Tri-State Pollution Commission. That body is moving to protect all streams which empty into the ocean sound. The greatest obstacle to the elimination of stream pollution sto date has been financial aid Sanford Ii. 'g'Wadhams director of the state water com yy1nission of Connecticut, made this statement. It certainly is right.
 Cities and industrial plants may have chos- m the lazy mans method of getting rid of rewage and wastes because it the most 2 Convenient and cheapest. Now that our f fStreams must be purified it is going to cost transferable sum to make the radical change. Eities must build disposal plants and must Ink their sewer systems with them. Factor
 es are faced with the same task of neutraliz
 " their waste products and acids before
 sptying them into streams in their raw state. [f is an expensive job and lengthy one. Wa &<burv has started it: other cities in the state

Health Information Center

A health information office conducted by an Academy of Medicine IS the latest public service operated by private enterprise. lndi- viduals may telephone there any time of the day or night and receive various types of serv- ice. The information office will get d doc tor in hurry, send an ambulance or tell the inquirer just what first aid measures to take in emergency.
 The service is prepared to tell the citizen about any patent remedy. about hospital facll- ities, where is the nearest physician or to answer any public health question. The of- flee will try, too, to locate any particular physician at any time. If he is a member of the Academy of Medicine the necessary in- formation about him will be on hand. Phy sicians outside that organization. though not registered at the lnformaton office, will be sought on request just the same.
 Doubtless the workers at the information office will be asked many foolish questions in the course of time. and there will be many complaints about poor service, That's the way people are. As the public learns to make sensible use of it, however, the health office should become increasingly valuable to the whole community.

It is now legal in Great Britain for a man to marry his deceased wife's brothers daugh- ter. That isn't riddle nor a joke. Parlia- ment has just celebrated the month of June by amending the so-called prohibited degrees of relationship bill. Further than the above union the following are now also permitted: Union between a man and his deceased wife's sisters daughter fathers deceased brotber's widow: mothers deceased brothers widow; deceased wife's father sister; deceased wife'S mothers sister; brothers deceased sons widow; and sister s deceased sons widow. You can figure out the relationships for yourself. It's too much for us Dispatches from England state there was no opposition to the amendments which surprised many who recalled the agitation of 1907 which rocked Parliament when the first or original deceased wife's sister act was ln- troduced.

PLENTY OF ANCESTORS
Bridgeport Telegram.)

Bridgeport Telegram.)
 Hereditary societies offer an in-
 teresting commentary on the will
 ingness of people to overlook a sim
 pie arithmetical fact. That is, that
 the number of ancestors doubles
 with each generation back. Every
 individual has two direct ancestors,
 father and mother; four grand
 parents; eight great grandparents;
 sixteen great-great-grandparents and
 SO forth. Research shows that
 generation averages almost exactly 80 years, so that in a given lapse of years the number of intervening
 generations can be determined very accurately by dividing by 30. Thus a person who likes to boast
 that his ancestors came over on the Mayflower is dealing with the 10th generation back. If there were no intermarriages in the interval. or marriages of two brothers to two sisters in this ancestral tree, an in- dividual of to-day would have 1,O24 ancestors in the 10th generation, from all of whom he would be equally descended. This number is considerably more than the passen- , ger list of the Mayfiower. If only one of these ancestors happened to bme on the Mayfower, then the descendant in this generation is ar- bitrarily selecting one ancestor from whom to claim descent, and is ig-
 noring the other 1923 from whom he is equally descendant.
 But the absurdity of ancestor
 worship becomes far more apparent when applied to the year 1066, the date of the Battle of Hastings. Last week a monument was unveiled at the Chateau of Falaise in Norman dy, ancient home of William the Conqueror. This tablet bears the names of 315 participants in the battle and of these, 100 are said to
 have descendants in this country. It Tasting descendants, based upon
 this discovery.
 However it is probable that every person of English ancestry living | to-day has some Norman blood in | his veins, as simple calculation
 will show. There have been 28.S generations since the battle of Hast ings, which means thac the individ. ual of to-day had 478,260.000 "di- I rect ancestors living at that date.
 This is considerably more than the entire population of Europe, if not | of the whole world, at that time. If the calculation proves anything. 1t proves the brotherhood of man and the absurdity of hereditary claims. A person who is able to prove descent from only one par ticipant in the Battle of HastingS
 is unfortunate. Most of us (if we had our family records intact)
 would be able to show that we were
 descended from both the contending ! armies, complete.

Repairs Appreciated

Failure of the Legislature to take action from West Main street to Waterville in the trunk line system this year has forced this city to face the task of building an entire new road or else continue with the patching jobs that have been going on now for good many years. What Thomaston avenue needs, of course, is an entire new road, not merely re- surfacing. Under the Hayes economy pro- gram such a project IS out of the question. And there are too many central streets de- manding attention just at present for the city 5 to devote time and money to this work l he road will simply have to be cared for as it has in the past.
 ~ All of which proves that the highway department cannot be cognizant of conditions as they actually are in this district We know that the state once had this road under its jurisdiction. Why it ever gave it up IS more than we can understand. If it was at the insistenee of local officials then certainly somebody showed poor judgment. The road z oliouio HdNe pat ol liIs o'ate way system It is an important entrance and exit road. It IS the main route from Water bury to the Berkshires. IL is part of the Ideal Tour. As such it should be kept in good condition. The state highway depart
 ment is the proper agency 10 do this.
 With this in mind we think that our city officials should have put up more vigorous :. fight to have the legislative committee on roads, rivers, and bridges give the bill more x attention. Our legislators should have inter estsd themselves in the proposal more than they did. It is too late to do anything now, we suppose But in l933 we hope that there twill be whole hearted efforts to make Thom- aston avenue part of the trunk line system. reThe condition of the lower Waterville road, sas we know it, is such that the upper road which had become almost deserted of recent years is the more popular of the two. With this in mind the street department has done some fine work along it. particularly that now going on, a widening job where the road narrows north of Chapman avenue. Of the two roads to Waterville the upper one IS the more preferable It is more scenic. well shaded, and doesn't run beside the rail- road tracks. Further than that the effect of the river is better from distance than from such close scrutiny as the lower road allows. It begins to look as if the old highway signs that once adorned Willow street at the inter sections of Waterville street. Hillside avenue, and Ridgewood street might have served good purpose today after all. It would be far better to direct out of town motorists over the upper road than to have them travel along the narrow and rutted lower road. Perhaps if enough complaints materlalize at the state highway department office some ac- ton might be forthcoming.

KERENSKY'S TRIUMPH

On July l. 1917, the greatest off, fensive which Alexander Kerensky, war minister of the Provisional Rus sian government had urged upon upon Russian troops, had 1t sinitial success when 35,000 prisoners were captured at the front.
 This restoration of morale among the troops was aided by Kerensky's strong hand and the power of his fiery eloquence which swept through the country like 8 flame.
 And. once the offensive was start ed. the rapid succession of victories gained by the military genius of Gen. eral Brusiloff reacted in a very fav- orable sense upon the position of the Provisional Government, giving 1t new strength and prestige.
 Hindenburg checked the Russian advance two weeks later, but the successes already attained were suf- ficient to restore the confidence in the troops that Kerensky sought in urging his offensive.
