next Wednesdays El Centre Cham
ber of Commerce luncheon by Miss
Maytis Richie, psychologist on the
staff of the Patton State hospital
and psychologist and manager of
the Patton unit of the state child

members of this clinic speak last
year will appreciate an opportuni-
ty to learn more of the work this
department is doing and of the ac-

Miss Richie's talk should be of
interest to every tax payer as well
as of special interest to parents

WASHINGTON, Nov. 21-The
future status of Edward Augustine
Savoy is worrying some Of the state
department personnel more than the
question of their own jobs after
the end Of the present admins
tration.
Savoy is rs years old. He is the
negro messenger of the secretary
of state. He probably knows By
sight more diplomats than any man
in the world. His mind is reposi-
tory of rare and interesting stories
about American diplomacy.
Last year Eddie, as the dimin-
utive messenger is called, was COM
PEELED by the civil service commits
sion to retire because of his age.
He had reached the retirement age
several years earlier but had been
kept at his post in front of Slim
sons office through special dis
pensation.
However, StimSon has retained
Eddie at the little desk in front
of the office, by paying him from
his own pocket.

DANGEROUS LENIENCY

1T happens to be Chicago that gives us
the latest and most horrible example
of the danger emanating from the gen.
eral laXity with which we in this country
treat dangerous criminals, but it might
have been any other section of the coun-
try, not excluding California.
A II year old youth has confessed to
an orgy of crimes including at least
three wanton murders, dozen robberies
and several attacks on women.
Last week even crime hardened Chi
cago was shocked by the brutal Staying
Of a defenseless man and a vicious at
tack on woman, the crimes resulting
In an extensive manhunt which ended
with the arrest of the II year old youth
who not only confessed to these crimes
but to others which he had committed.
These murders, robberies and attacks
will be charged against him when they
might better be charged against society
in general and the Illinois authorities in
particular.
The youth had been an inmate of an
institute for mental detectives for two
years but was later released. Dispatch
es do not say why. Perhaps he was sup
posed to be cured, or maybe the institu-
tion was over crowded. At any rate
person with known criminal tendencies,
was given his freedom to prey upon So
ciety We can only ask why, and
there is. no satisfactory answer.
His case has plenty of parallels right
here in California, where prison parole
board releases men with criminal rec
ords after they have served only min
imum part of their sentences.
Topping even that is the proposal of
the governor of the state to pardon men
convicted of crimes, because the law un-
der which they had been convicted has
been repudiated at the polls.
We wonder at the prevalence of crime.
The real wonder is that we do not have
more crimes, because We seem almost
completely incapable of dealing with the
dangerous criminal, but how tough we
can get with the fellow who parks his
car too close to fire hydrant or the
boy who steals watermelons.

PULLING TOGETHER

TOMORROW the President of the Unit
ed States, and the man who defeated
him for reelection to that office, will sit
down together in the nations capital to
discuss affairs of national and world
wide Importance in the hope of obtain
ing some definite understanding upon
them pending the time when the new
president goes into office
If such an occasion does not give hope
to every American citizen, he is short
sighted to an extreme degree
It will be an occasion that has never
before occurred in the history of the
country. Further than that, it indicates
the willingness of Mr. Hoover and Mr..
Roosevelt, to do whatever they can to
bring the country out of economic chaos
and into the prosperity it should be en-
joying.
Those who may be inclined to take
gloomy view of the recent election might
take fresh enthusiasm and courage from
the example the Republican and Demo-
cratic chieftains have set them.
They meet not as enemies or political
opponents, but as American citizens,
anxious to do service for their country.
We know what very frequently hap
pens when a political party is defeated
as badly as was the Republican party.
In other nations it means revolution.
Once in our own country's history the
election of Abraham Lincoln as presi-
dent was the signal for secession and
terrible four years of civil war
There is no danger of anything like
that happening, yet few months ago
there were murmurs and rumblings of
revolution" and violence. The situ-
alton certainly has improved to that ex-
tent. One hears no such talk now.
1t is time for pulling together,
and if the rest of US will only take the
lesson being taught by tomorrow's con-
ference, the pull will not be an overly
long or tremendously difficult one

REDUCTION OF ARMAMENT.

Conscious that the limitation Of
armament will contribute to security
against war, and that the financial
burdens of military preparation have
been shamefully increased throughout
the world, the administration under
President Hoover has made steady eff
forts and marked progress in the direc-
ton of proportional reduction of arms
by agreement with other nations.
upon his initiative treaty between
the chief naval powers at London in
1880. following the path marked by the
Washington Conference of 1922 estab-
lisheG a limitation of all types of fight
ing ships on a proportionate basis as
between the three great naval powers.
For the first time a general limitation
of most costly branch of armament
was successfully accomplished.
In the Geneva Disarmament Confer
ence now in progress America is an
active participant, and a representative
delegation OF our citizens Is laboring
for further progress in cause to which
this country he's been an earnest con-
tributor This policy will be pursued.
Meanwhile, maintenance of our
Navy on the basis of parity with any
nation is fundamental policy to which
the Republican party is committed.
While in the interest of necessary Cow
eminent retrenchment, humanity and
relief of the taxpayer we shall continue
to exert our full influence upon the ma
lions of the world in the cause of re-
ductlon of arms, we do not propose to
reduce our Navy defenses below that
of any other nation.

TRANSPORTATION.

THE promotion of agriculture, COM
merce and industry requires co-ordina-
ton of transportation by rail, highway,
air and water. All should be sub
Jected to appropriate and constructive
regulation.
The public will, of course, select the
form Of transportation best fitted to
its particular service, but the terms
of competition fixed by public author
ity should operate without discrimina-
ton, so that all common carriers by
rail, highway, air and water shall OPP
crate under conditions of equality
The railroads constitute the back
bone of our transportation system and
perform an essential service for the
country. The railroad industry is our
largest employer of labor and the great
est consumer of goods. The restoration
of their credit and the maintenance of
their ability to render adequate serv-
ice are of paramount importance to
the public, to their many thousands of
employees and to savings banks. in
surance companies and other similar
institutions, to which the savings of the
people have been intrusted.
We should continue to encourage
the further development of the mer-
chant marine under American registry
and ownership.
Under the present administration
the American merchant feet has been
enlarged and strengthened until it now
occupies second place among the mer-
chant marines of the world.

DEMOCRATIC FAILURE.

"The vagaries of the present DEM
cratic House of Representatives OTTER
characteristic and appalling proof Of
the existing incapacity of that party
for leadership in national crisis. In
dividualism running amuck has dis
placed party discipline and has trampled
underfoot party leadership. A Devil
dered electorate has viewed the spec
tacle with profound dismay and deep
nisgivings. Goaded to desperation by
their confessed failure, the party lead
ers nave resorted TO pork-barrel leg
lSlatlon to obtain unity of action
which could not otherwise be achieved.
Republican President stands reso-
lutely between the helpless citizen and
the disasters threatened by such meas
ures, and the people, regardless of party,
will demand his continued service.
Many times during his useful life has
Herbert Hoover responded to such a
call, and his response has never dis
appointed. He will not disappoint us
now.

AGRICULTURE.

Farm distress in America has its
root in the enormous expansion of
agricultural production during the war,
the deflation of 1919, 1920, and the dis
location of markets after the war.
There followed, under Republican adj
ministrations, long record of legiS-
lation in aid Of the cooperative or
ganization of farmers and in providing
farm credit. The position of agricul-
ture was gradually improved. In 1928
the Republican party pledged further
measures in aid of agriculture, princi-
pally tariff protection for agricultural
products and the creation of a Federal
Farm Board clothed with the necessary
power to promote the establishment of
a farm marketing system Of farmer
owned and controlled sterilization cor
porations'
Almost the first official act of Presi-
dent Hoover was the calling of a spe
cial session of Congress to redeem these
party pledges. They have been re-
deemed.
The 1880 tariff act increased the
rates on agricultural products by 80
per cent. upon industrial products only
IL per cent. That act eQualized, so far
as legislation can do 50, the protection
afforded the farmer with the protection
afforded industry and prevented . vast
flood Of cheap wool, grain, live stock
dairy and other products from entering
the American market.

Home Loan Discount Bank System for
the Benefit of Home Owners of the
United States.
The present Republican administra-
ton has initiated legislation for the
creation Of system Of federally super
wise home loan discount banks. de-
signed to serve the home owners of all
parts of the country and to encourage
home ownership by making possible
long-term credits for homes on more
stable and more favorable terms.
There has arisen in the last few
years disturbing trend away from
home ownership We believe that
everything possible should be done by
governmental agencies, National, State
and local, to reverse this tendency: to
aid home owners by encouraging better
methods of home financing, and to re-
lieve the present inequitable tax burden
on the home. In the field of national
legislation We pledge that the measures
creating home loan discount system
will be pressed in Congress until
adopted.

have otherwise been available Larger
quantities of farm products have been
handled comparatively than ever before
in the history of the cooperative move
ment. Grain crops have been sold by
the farmer through his association d.
rectly upon the world market.
Due to the 1880 tariff act and the
agricultural marketing act, 1t can truth
fully be stated that the prices received
by the American farmer for his wheat,
corn, rye, barley, oats, faxseed, cattle,
butter and many other products. cruelty
low though they are, are higher than
the prices received by the farmers of
any competing nation for the same
products.
. THE Republican party also has aided
the American farmer by relief of the
sufferers in the drought-stricken areas.
through loans for rehabilitation and
through road building to provide EN-
ployment. by the development Of the in

product act, by the strengthening Of the
extension system and by the appropria-
ton of $l25, 000. 900 to recapitalize the
Federal Land Banks and enable them
to extend time to worthy borrowers.
1.-THE Republican party pledges itself
to the principle OF assistance to CO.
operative marketing associations, owned
and controlled by the farmers them
selves, through the provisions of the
agricultural marketing act, which will
be promptly amended or modified as ex-
perience shows to be necessary to ac-
complish the objects set forth in the
preamble Of that act.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1932-06-16

by the agricultural marketing act
the Federal Farm Board was created
and armed with broad powers and ample
funds. The object Of that act, as stated
in its preamble, was to promote the
effective merchandising OF agricultural
commodities in Interstate and foreign
commerce, so that - agriculture will
be placed on the basis of economic
equality with other industries '.
BY encouraging the organization of pro-
ducers into effective association for
their own control, and by pro-
noting the establishment Of a farm
marketing system Of producer-owned
and producer-controlled cooperative
associations.
THE Federal Farm Board, created by
the agricultural marketing act, has been
compelled to conduct its operations dur
ing period in which all commodity
prices, industrial as well as agricultural,
have fallen to disastrous levels. A
period of decreasing demand and of ma
tional calamities, such as drought and
flCod, has intensified the problem OF
agriculture.
