Qualities Of
Constructive Craftsmanship

VUd4AIAoS VI
Constructive Craftsmanship
The agreement of the Sem
ate Committee is a triumph
for Wagnerian persistence.
He was the sponsor Of the
plan, and, under the usual
rules, he would have been
chairman of the Senate COM
mittee. There was interfer-
ence, ascribed to the White
House, and another Senator,
not in sympathy with the
idea, was put at the head.
The fact that the committee
is now unanimous, and the
President has apparently
been won over, is a tribute
to the Senator from New
York.
Within six years Wagner
has won recognition among
thinkers and economists as
one Of the foremost construc-
tive thinkers in the Senate.
He has submitted answers to
problems, and the answers
have been sound-and never
demagogic. Never once has
he gone off half-cocked. Be-
hind every measure he has
submitted have been exhaus-
tive Investigations and con-
sultations with economists
and specialists. Not one has
been partisan in inspiration
or effect. Most, if not all,
have been inspired by a pas
sion for social justice. He
has merely carried on in
Washington the work he so
ably did in Albany, where
he was closely connected
with the labor and social
legislation which is the most
enlightened Of any common
wealth.
In the perspective of the
future years he will stand
out as one of the all too few
in the Senate who have
properly diagnosed our pres
ent near-collapse and concen-
trated on methods of perma-
nent relief. And he has done
it conscientiously, modestly,
persistently and effectually.
His are the qualities of con-
structive craftsmanship.
The clamor of the bour-
bons and the blind against
some insurance plan as a
"dole" simply will not wash.
The insurance he has in
mind is the same kind of a
dole the widow gets from
the insurance company on
her husbands death. It is
not a "dole" at all.

Help Opposed for Those
Disabled After Discharge
Unless in Actual Need.

Brig. Gen. Frank T. Hines, veterans
administrator. told a Joint Congress
sional Committee today he could "see
no reasonable justification" for a
veteran whose disabilities are not con-
nected with service duty applying to
his Government for aid when he is
able to provide for himself"

erans legislation and possible economies,
Hines made his statement before room
crowded with representatives of vet
erans' organizations opposing any
changes in existing laws.
He put before the committee a ma
tional policy of veterans relief. resting
on equality in benefits: consideration
of the degree of disability, and financial
need for Government aid.
The policy. Hines continued, should
extend aid first to those having dis
abilities incurred in or aT~~avated by
military service.

who, while not suffering from disability

ment issued here today by Henry H.
Curran, general manager of the Ma

Commenting on the Presidents budget
message to Congress, Mr.. Curran point
ed to these two features of the mes
sage as the good and bad features,
between which "the budget is not bal

could be-"
Reduction of the public works pro-
gram. Mr.. Curran said. results in tire
mendous" savings. He finds no real
aid in such a program to the solution
of the Nations unemployment problem
as a whole.
THE bad feature" Mr. Curran said,
"is the negligible little whiting which
Is addressed to the wrongful payment
of the peoples money to veterans who
came out of the war without scratch
or a sickness of any kind"
He advocated that the country "be
generous to those veterans who are
hurt as a real result of their actual
war experience" but declared that I'VE
never can take proper care Of these
really war-injured veterans until We
stop paying out hundreds of millions OF
dollars to veterans who came out of
the war happy and whole and now
want to get a little money out of the

war instead of serving the country in

Sugar Cane Bagasse Enters Meso Field

IA /HEN the chemical engineer starts to work
w with substance, there is no telling where
he Will end up. For instance, take the case of
the bagasse left from the extraction of sugar
from sugar cane 1t represented a potential
waste Of thousands of tons of material every year
and waste is abhorrent to the chemist of the De-
partment Of Agriculture The research has re-
suited in the production of material to keep
heat in, another to let heat out and in a third
step utilizes the bagaSse to produce heat
The third utilization Is the one first worked
out The bagasse has been used for some time
as fuel to run the boilers at cane mills In
sections where the supplying of other fuels is
costly and difficult matter
The development of an Insulating board from
bagasse for use in insulating buildings against
heat in Summer and cold in Winter is also well
known. 1t remained, then, for the chemist to
quit the grosser uses of fuel and building ma
terial to enter the domain of dainty lingerie
and work out a means of producing rayon from
bagaSse.
For some time it has been known that bagasse
could be used, but the methods necessary to
produce the cellulose were too expensive A
new method has been developed however by
d. F. j. Lynch and M. j. Goss of the Depart
ment OF Agriculture. which employs a weak
