He went and they had one drink, then re- turned to the dining room, re- joining Matthews and Mrs. Lawr- ence.
 Later he left them and went into the poolroom adjoining. He saw Matthews there a short time afterward. Before he went to his boat he made another trip to John- sons room. The door was closed, he said. He knocked and it was opened part way. He asked if everything was 'Okay,' and voice, Johnson's he thought, answered "Okay." He wasn't invited to enter and did not try to. He then went to the cafe counter and paid for the coffee he and Mrs. Lawrence had consumed and went home. He was under cross examination by MT. Grigsby when court recessed at noon.

He picked her up and started her on her way again. He stood and watched her and when she fell second time. he again helped her to her feet and accompanied her to the City Cafe where he bought some coffee.
 Shortly after they entered the cafe, he declared, Johnson and Matthews appeared in the room in which they were seated. Both seated themselves. All except Mat thews, had one or two drinks. He didn't know which man had brought the liquor

Anti-Machine

It causes no surprise when the German government forbids the use of new labor- saving machinery in the cigar industry. Presumably there will be similar prohib- tions in other industries not yet highly me- ehanized. From that, Germany and other countries, possibly including our own may come to limiting machinery in industries already mechanized Horsepower and kilo- watts may be prorated with man-power.
 Any such economic devoluton will be regrettable and destructive. Only as a tenn porary expedient, in serious unemploy- ment crisis can any really intelligent society yield to the temptation to scrap or limit its productive machinery. Poverty comes not from labor-saving machines but from un- intelligent distribution of their products. We can keep on improving machines indefin- itely if we improve business and social methods along with them. People then can have as much as usual with less work, or

Pacifsts Between Wars


 It is comparatively easy to be pacifist be- tween wars, Very few persons really want war. Increasing numbers of us realize that all wars, certainly any modern wars must inevitably prove futile, injuring all beiger- ents alike, vctors as we'll as vanquished.
 When war breaks out, however, mob psy- chology or patriotism or something makes mlitarists of good many peace-tlme paei- fists. The Round Table Press has recently published book by the Rev Dr Ray H. Abrams, entitled Preachers Present Arms which is study of the about-face from pacif- ism made by most preachers in this country during the World War. In quotations from sermons and published speeches the author presents picture of the almost heroic efforts of the clergy to reconcile their support of that war with the teachings of Christianity. Only 99 preachers out of 200 000 he says, stuck to their antiwar ideals.
 Tn the late combat at arms" he writes. ''the tribal gods proved superior to the ideal of the brotherhood of man which had been so ardently proclaimed up to that time, the priests in each country accusing those in the enemy nations of worshipping false gods. The very phrase, the brotherhood of man. in those days, came to be used as slogan to justify the bayoneting of the alienated brother" No doubt it would be so in another war. It is one of the perils of war that hysteria is so easy to create and SO hard to control.

principle. And back of this fight over a principle can be seen a head-on collision be- tween the old and the new conceptions of proper industrial practice. Now this isn't something that can be settled with soft words or with frenzied gesturngs in the di- reetion of that benign bird, the Blue Eagle. It cuts too deeply into the fabric of Ameti- can life. There is in this fight portent that we cannot ignore safely.
 Men do not go on strike just for the fun of it after four years of hard times--espe- cially when wages and working hours are not their principal objectives. Nor do em- ployers. after four years of vanishing profits, undergo the expense of fight like this just to salve their vanity. Something funda- mental is at stake here, something that can- not easily be compromised. Sooner or later. one side or the other must back down.
 And since this is fight which affects the whole country, we must make up our minds which side is to be upheld. Are we going to go back to the old conception of industrial practice and countenance a fin ish fight to break the union in the old Prick Carnegie manner? Or are We going to swing into step with the New Deal, &C.,, eept unionism without reservations, and go on to tackle the real problems of life in the machine age?

Bathtub Wine

The economic importance of the bathtub has been overlooked. Anyone who consd- CTS it mere sanitary equipment hasn't noticed what is going on. The bathtub has become industrial equipment. Bathrooms have be- come factories for the production of alco- holic beverages
 ''Bathtub gin" is term familiar for some years among the bibulous inteligentsia. But the tub appears to be still more import ant as wine vat. According to Harry A. Caddow. secretary of the Grape Growers League of California, it has become the eountry's chief source of wine production.
 During the national prohibition era, he says wine consumption has more than doubled. Before 1919 we produced about 50.000,000 gallons a year and imported 8.000,000. Now Americans are drinking 1l5,000.0o0 to 125,000,000 gallons a year. And the bathtub is responsible. With regular sources of supply cut off, wine has appeared more and more plentifully, some of it from the cellar and some from the gar- age. but most of it from the bathroom. Amateur vintners make it in their tubs with small grape presses.
 If this is SO, we'll have to quit using bathtub statistics to prove our national su- periority in hygiene. The bathtub wine presses, though may indirectly have served a useful purpose, by dsplaeing synthetic gin and getting people used to the idea of fek mented grape juice as milk substitute for hard liquors in general.

But it is an item which is singularly out of date just now. Furthermore. this particular disturbance - the one which blankets the rich Pittsburgh coal and iron district - is just a little bit different from the ones we're used to.

DUMPING BLOCKED
(New Haven Register)


 The United States follows close ly on the heels of Italy in arrang" ing for bars to be put up against industrial dlslocation through competition of goods from de- hased-currency nations. Orders have just been Issued at Wash ington authorizing the Customs Bureau to levy import duties on electric light bulbs and rubber soled shoes from Japan, sufficient to raise their price to what Is con- sidered fair value in terms of American producing conditions. Both of these products are of much interest to New England, Connecticut and Massachusetts tts manufacturers were leading wit nesses at the hearings last Win ter when the anti-dumping ap- peals were made. The fact that d block to the dumping has now been authorized should make considerable difference to them, their employees and the communi- ties in which they operate if the state of competition through star. vation wages and depreciated currency wac only partly as bad as it was painted.

Relief Must Come

There is precious little sense in worrying about the demand for imitation unless we also are willing to worry about the things that caused the demand. That we are go- inq to have something like final. definite showdown in imitation this winter IS be- coming obvious. The pressure for inflation that has been put on the White House in the last month or so is only the first breath of a gale that will break loose when Con- gress convenes.
 And to read some of the indignant out cries being raised these days is to get the inn pression that demanding imitation IS crime against nature. We arc reminded over and over again of the dolefu things that hap pened to Russia and Germany when they sent their paper up to the windstorm. Stick a pin through your newspaper at random and you are likely to impale an interview with some economist or other full of dark prophecies and dire forebodlngs.
 All this pessmism may be entirely justi- field. That, at the moment, IS hardly the point. The important thing is to realize that the camor for imitation does not arise from sheer human perverslty and wrong headedness, but that it proceeds from the contemplation of wrongs which great many people have decided they are not go- ing to endure any longer. If you borrow a dollar which is worth one bushel of wheat and find, when you come to pay 1t back that it is worth three bushels, you have been sypped. and no fine talk about the sanetity of sound money is going to make you feel any better about it.
 It is precisely that which has happened to millions of Americans in the last few years. Debt has turned into self-inercasng snow- ball, and it has become load which IS just about too heavy to be carried any farther. Paying for dead horse is never much fun; when the corpse goes on rising in value be- fore you can get all your payments in, you hardly can be blamed if you decide that the rales of the game ought to be changed little.
 Imitation may be the height of folly. But an even loftier peak would be to fight against innation without offering any rem- edy for the wrongs which have made infla- tion look desirable. If we are not going to have imitation. we must have something that will whittle our debts down to the size they were when we contracted them. And it must be something that will work.

Finds Rich Drama
 In Ordinary Lives

"ordtnary Families" by E. Ar not Robertson, is a novel which undertakes to show that there are really no ordinary families any where. Each group of human beings has It's own hidden tragedy. its own little stock of dreams and desires and powers: get undcr- heath the surface, even in the most unlikely looking spot, and you run into more drama than you know what to do with.
 The author examines n little group of English families to prove her point.
 There's the retired engineer whe makes living as a yacht broker, living quietly in seacoast town with his wife and their four children; there's his next-door neighbor the rich industrialist, who high hats everybody and con fesses that his son and daughter are really pretty stupidj there's the family across tho bay, ,.arty | and self consciously "emandipat- l ed"; there's a troupe of lesser lights, villagers, young people and so on, all tossed into the pot and allowed to simmer together.
 Those are all ordinary folk. Their actions are never melodra- matte; the emotions that Insure tho actions are extremely so.
 And 1t all makes d strange sort of book very convincing, very skillfully written - and somehow pretty unpleasant, This author 1 writes with concise clarity, n keen intelligence and an alert nwarcness of the poignancy of tho human struggles ana defeats that her ordinary families display but while she is interested In these people she doesn't seem to like any of them very well.
 She proves her point, she comes up with Il double handful of dra- matc incidents. she writes m in' teresting book--but somehow it's [ relief to finish it.

Current Complaints

Among the letters to the editor printed recently in the New York Times is an astonishing communication signed Com plaining New Yorker The writer has several annoyanees on his mind, all Of which he believes many business men and the public generally" would like to see eor- rseted Moreover. they are all possible ot correction.
 First, he objects to billboard advertising, not because it is unsishty. but because most of it is so hard for motorists in moving cars to deeipher. The legends ought to be readable He does not like the gloom in theaters and considers the timing of lights and curtain bad He disapproves of dark subway trains, on which citizens who try to read their newspapers suffer serious eye strain. He doesn't like radio announeers- but who does3 They humble when they ought to speak clearly. He finds the ab- senee of street numbers on houses and shops most inconvenient He is indignant that weekly publications do not put their tables of contents in places easy for the reader to find and that they have no standard method of numbering pages. It is maddenng to have some pages numbered at the top, some at the bottom, and some not at all.
 If there are other wrongs he wants rghted, they do not appear in this letter. Doubtless he realizes that too many reforms should not be undertaken at one time. I he curious thing about the letter is its tremendous earnestness about lot of rather common and comparatively trivial annoyances. Com- munism, imitation, NRA. racketeering civic government. war debts and lot of other problems might be expected to figure in such whoehearted statement of com plaints. After all, it is the little things in life that please or distress. Some of the big things. which seem so important to edi- tors and others. have very little interest for the general public.

To-day'S Selected Poem
MY PRAIRIE HOME

(By Raymond Kresensky in The New York
 Times) After the hills. and lakes, and bottomlands, come to this my being understands: The country flat and even like plane Dotted with farms and broad with fields of
 grain. Against the skyline groves appear like walls Or misty hedges. Here a wide wind calls Across the land and light goes deep and wide Through field and road and town and country
 side. Here being stretches out. There is no end Of what the eye can see. There is no bend Nor turn to wind and sun tnd light The arms Move out and take in all: the rolling farms. The groves, the fields. the creeks. High hills,
 tall trees. And forests dark and clrcumscribed would hold A man into a hole, vicious mold, But those wide praires lift and set him free, Endless in thought, broad as eternity.
