 Just after Speaker Garner and the House Demo- crats had announced their purpose to bring about a sweeping reorganization and economies in the Gov ernment service the President sent message to Con- gross demanding legislation for the objects But in this coincidence there is nothing suspiciouSly political The subject is one which MT. Hoover has often pressed upon public attention and upon Con gress The movement for administrative reform dates, in fact far back Congress itself has worked at the job Senator Shoot headed committee which spent months in ascertainng the facts ana which made a report recommending many changes some of them like those proposed by the President But little nothing has been done. Be- yond consolidating the various bureaus for veterans and concentrating law-enforcement agencies in the Department of Justice no real reorganization has been seriously attempted Yet the immense and un- wieldy Government bureaucracy fairly cries aloud for reduction and recasting MT. Hoover puts the case well There is today an intolerable amount of overlapping and ineffciency and waste in the execu- tive departments If the system were taken III hand as it would be in the of any great business corporation a multitude of superfluous employees could dispensed with and millions could be saved while enhancing instead of lessening the efneleney of the Government machine.
 What the President requests is a grant of author ty to him to propose desirable consultations and with the consent of Congress to effect them Wheth- CT it will be disposed to enrust such work to the Executive himself may be doubted but some force ft administrator, some busnesslike committee, VIII have to take cnarBe Ol the great ulBCAt taking The play will be praised by everybody, but uncounted obstacles personal and political will be thrown in the way of it's execution This has been the nvariable experience in the past.

MISS TAFT IS
 DEAD IN EAST
Former Member of Shel- don Jackson School
 Staff Passes Away <

SITKA. Alaska, March 7-(Spe- cial Correspondence) = Miss M. Edna Tait, for nine years mem Der of the staff of Sheldon Jackson School, died in Grove City, Penn. March 5, following a period of i'll health which had compelled her to give up her teaching position here last December
 Miss Tait was one of those rare people who could fit into almost any situation on mission fields She knew not only how to train the intellect but the hand and heart as well. Those whoa worked with Miss Tait fully appreciated herr devotion to her pupils She was always whole heartedly be- hind any effort to help the boys and girls prepare for life. Her one greatest interest, however, was in helping each pupil learn the Chris tan way of living and of having each one come to sense of re- sponsibility for carrying to others the truths learned. One outstand- ing characteristic of her work was her ultimate patience. No student ever failed to make good because of a lack of opportunity or effort on her part.
 Miss Tait's interest was not con- fined to the work of the school During the entire period of her life in Sitka she conducted a Sunday School in the village. Here she gave the same loving, self-sacrificmg service as that which marked all other efforts. Her influence, also, was felt in the villages along the entire coast of Southeast Alaska.
 Perhaps no more sincere praise can be given than that written by one of her pupils: From the first the school felt her strong person. ality as a good teacher. She was tireless and cheerful in her efforts. in anything she undertook. In the classroms, she was liked by every one and her departure is deeply felt by all with whom she was associated"

Why Not Booze Bonds?'
eNew York World-Telegram) )

tNeW
 Coax money out of hoardng.
 That's one Administration slogan We suggest lanother:-
 Coax money out of HIDING
 Why not a special bond ssue-and 1t needn't De a baby" one ether-to tempt forth some of the millions of dollars of wealth that bootleggers rack eeers, grafters and prosperous capitalists in like circles conceal in tin boxes and mattresses, where the income tax authorities won't spot it?
 True, now and again one of these big income hiders gets into trouble and the Federal tax agents bounce on him. But the few that get caught give only faint hint of these huge volumes Of cash that are not so much hoarded hidden.
 h. around and behind the North Atlantic rum runners convention at Halifax must be thousands of United States citizens fairly burdened with United States currency that they would be only too glad to invest in some discreet, inconspcuous way
 Why not make it easy for them? Why not offer them a special series of non-taxable high interest booze bonds to be sold in speakeasies and no ques tions asked?
 "Racketeer 6s,1 "Grafter 7l9s,' Hjacker 8s' ought to sell like hot cakes if advertised in the right quarters.
 It's shame so much money made in some of the country's biggest and most flourishng present trades has to keep slyy out of sight when it is badly needed in erculation
 Hoarders should do their duty.
 But it's the hiders who need special coaxing and blandshments.

BELGIANs WELCOME JEsUITs.

Members of the Jesuit Order of Spain expelled by edict of the new Republican Government, will not suffer for want of home or the welcome of friendly people. Belgium has extended it's hospitality to the exiled churchmen whom they are confident can render important service to the nation Belgium lacks adequate secondary schools to educate it's youth In the Jesuit ranks it has found the in tellectuals it needs in order to make up the de- fieiency.
 Mansions have already been acquired by the order or several centers of population, and others will be transferred to it. These mansions are Gov ernment-owne and have been white elephants" on hands Thus in ridding itself of their care, Bel gium makes two-fod gain. It frees itself of that expense and acquires more secondary schools.

CHICAGO, June 20 UN.S0
The great public following Of
Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt
confidently anticipate his nomi-
nation for the Presidency by the
Democratic convention. here as
Sembled, because this is one con-
Vention in which an untram-
melled democracy will brook no
dictation from Wall Street. Every
attempt by the agents, sent here
by New York bankers to impose
. their will on the convention, has
been rejected by the delegates.
Sign Of Integrity
It Is a healthy sign of the in
dependence and integrity of this
convention. It means we will
go forward to victory under the
banner of Franklin D. Roosevelt
in November.
The undercurrent movement to
"stop Roosevelt" in order to force
the nomination of Newton D.
Baker, has failed. While Baker
has served his country honorably
and faithfully, the secret cam
paign to make him the Democra-
tic nominee has found no favor
here because of the source Of his
backing.
If it were not for the fact that
the international banking inter-
eStS of Wall Street are sponsor
ing this behind the scenes" drive,
the convention might have re-
ceived his cause more favorably.
Scores Threats
No man can be nominated by
this convention by threats. It
was unfortunate for the real
friends of Newton D. Baker that
the banking interests threatened
to withdraw financial support
from the Democratic party if
Roosevelt were nominated. This
threat has infuriated our free
minded and unmanacled dele
gates. 1t served merely to Solidify
the Roosevelt camp and to win
over to his banner host Of in
dependent Democrats, who are
out to make a real Democrat
President in November.

rain storm in this section Tuesday
morning, the wind seemed to reach
hurricane speed in spots and one oi
these places was in the vicinity OF
the Kent and Sussex Fair Grounds
where damage amounting to thou
sands of dollars occurred when some
of the old stables and a portion OF
the fence was blown down blocking
the back road to the fair ground en-
trance. So far as can be learned
there was no live stock in these
stables this time of the year. During
the fall and winter season, the
horses that train at the local track
are kept in some of the more mod
ern stables erected a few years ago.
At the Quality Poultry farms adjoin-
ing the fair grounds one 60-foot
building was destroyed. 1t did not
contain any chickens at the time.
Very few people in this section
carry hurricane insurance and it is
very likely the damage done will be
total loss to the owners.
