MO matter how you look at it..
L Y R. Earl Peters. Democratic
state chairman, directed his attack
on bureaucracy at Frank Mayr Jr
secretary Of state, when he made
the Wilson day address at Win
chester last week.
II was the multiplicity of depart
mentS under Mayr which Peters be-
rated as unecOnomical and un-
democratic, and in the speech the
chairman revealed that he can't for
give the secretary for permitting the
patronage of the Office to be used in
the attempt to defeat him for re-
election as party chief last MAY.
It rankles Earl that the secretary
quite evidently has ignored his pro-
tests against retention Of James Car
penter, superintendent of the auto
mobile license department and lead
err in the fight last spring.
Declaring that large economies in
governmental expenditures can be
achieved by shifting divisions, Pc
ters. they tell me. would have the
next legislature abolish the automo-
bile license department with its
scores of clerks and distributing
agencies and delegate that task to
the county assessors.
1t is proposed by some that the
counties keep the proceeds from
sales of tags, which Would be placed
in the general fund and thus aid
in reducing local taxes. This also
would mean reduction in revenue
OF the state highway department.
The plans also suggest that the
state police be taken from Mayr and
combined in separate department
Of public safety with the criminal
identification division and the state
fire marshal's department. A spe-
cial board composed of incumbent
state officials would administer this
new department through a director
appointed by them.
To complete emaSculation of the
secretary of states department, the
securities division, which admin
listers the blue sky law, would be-
come a part Of the Office of the at
torney- general.
This would leave the secretary of
state with one division only, the
corporations department, which re-
ceives and files reports of corpora
tons.
Whether this would be more eco
nOmical Ois not clear, inasmuch as
only one department will be abol-
ished under this plan and all will
be continued in various guises so
that the fixed charges necessarily
will exist as always,
If the departments were abolished
entirely, then, and then only, would
come a savings.
There is another side to this pic
ture and a new angle to the feud-
and that is political.
Peters, they tell me, is pointing
toward the nomination for United
States senator in 1884
Quite obviously, then, he would
not like to see so large a lump of
patronage in the hands of Mayr
and his advisors, whom he regards
as open enemies.
With so much patronage they
would be able to obtain many dele
gates pledged against his ambition

would obtain this money by sale of

a popular loan similar to those of

The first duty of the proposed
board would be apportionment of
40 per cent of this money among
the states on the basis Of popula-
ton. AS fast as states applied for
aid. the amount of this allotment
would be made available, provided
it was not more than tWo-thirds the
amount raised by the state itself
through public and private agencies.

Whenever these amounts of money
are not enough to meet relief needs

to apportion funds from the 60 per

Rearing Radios.

A plea has been made by Federal
Radio Commissioner Harold A. Lafount
to all radio listeners to keep their dials
turned down during the Summer. when
windows are open for the sake Of venti-
lation and coolness The commission,
he says, is besieged with complaints on
the score Of the nuisance Of roaring
emissions from radios at night and in
the early morning. He likens the
sounds from these high pitched radios
to q "swashbuckling political orator or
jazz band standing outside your
neighbor's door"
If somebody in the neishborhood of
residences throws a party and the
guests, perhaps enlivened by liquor. sing
and wrangle through the night at top
pitch of their voices, a complaint IS
usually made to the police and the
nuisance is abated by the law. The
loud pitched radio can be and often is
as serious an cffense against the peace
Of hundreds and is logically as definitely
subject to objection and correction as
the rowdy disturbance of an alcoholic
social gathering. But 1t has yet to be
so classified by effective regulations
and it causes as much distress and
nerve wrenching and sleeplessness as
the disorderly assemblage.
There is no occasion for high-pitched
radios in domestic use. The programs,

The Preferred List.

While no definite assurance Is given
by President Roosevelt that those whom
he calls honest to- goodness civil serv-
ice employees" who have been let out OF
the Government service through the
economy measures just adopted will BE-
re-emplcyed in the organization cf the
new Federal agencies, he has given
them some comfort by the announce
ment that they will be placed on a
preferred list. The selection of the
personnel will be left to the heads of
these agencies. They may or they may
not pick their people from these lists
In the absence Of any specific prefer
ence for the recently dismissed workers.
others may be chosen. although the
President indicates his prediction for
the merit system.
The clearest outcome Of the matter,
which was made the subject of discus
sion at the first meeting yesterday Of
the super council that is to direct the
recovery program. is that those who are
not honest-to-goodness" civil service
employees according to the present def
milton. those who have been covered
in" to the civil service by executive
orders during recent years, are to have
no consideration in the way of appoint
ments to the new positions. The Pres!-
dent does not formally revoke these
orders BY issuing another resembling
them He simply states a policy of re-
employment under which the covered"
workers. who have lately been let out
of the service. are eliminated from the
equation.
In respect to the unemployment OF
!nose on the preferred list, the honest
t:-goodness" civil service employees who
have been lately dismissed or fur
loughed, all depends now upon the de-
Sire of the heads of the agencies to
build up their forces with people trained
and experienced in Government work
as against newcomers whose qualifica
tions are merely political. In short, the
test of the administrations adherence
to the merit system and the established
civil service procedure Is to be made
through the actions CT the agency
heads. They have no direct orders
from the Executive. They are told that
they may choose their assistants from
the preferred lists Of former workers
who are not subject to the objection Of
having been covered in by executive
order. They have been given a strong
hint by their chief, but it would have
been more reassuring If that hint had
been explicit and compelling.

The MOunties.

The Mounties are celebrating their
diamond jubilee. 1t seems impossible
that the organization can be sixty years
old, but records bear out the claim. The
famous force was established in 1873,
following the acquisition of the western
lands by the Dominion. Named the
Royal Canadian Mounted Police in off,
cial parlance. the colloquial title by
which they are better known soon came
into being.
The early history of the Mounties
institution is saga OF pioneering. The
several Indian tribes In possession OF
the vast territory to which they were
assigned were powerful and prosperous,
but were being demoralized by liquor
sellers and by tribal warfare. White set
tiers went in fear for their lives. Con-
ditions appeared to be increasingly
chaotic. The problem was delivered to
the force for solution. There were only
three hundred men in uniform at the
time, but they had the necessary vision

from the Red River in Manitoba to the

the stern calvacade Of purposeful, un-
smiling red -jacketed riders; the fine,
spirited horses: the brightly polished
rifles; the shining revolvers ready for
instant punitive use. They asked the
meaning Of the demonstration and
promptly were told, Law and order"
And so it has been ever since. The
Mounties have meant civilization-for
white men as well as Indians. With
the passing of time they came to be
recognized and appreciated as friends.
It is as such that they now are re-
garded In consequence. occasions are
rare when it is necessary for them to
