L1BERIAN LIABILITIES

y EPORTs that the United States is en-
barking on another imperialistc adven.
lure IN Liberia are rather surprising. lust
When there is so much talk about American
nationalism withdrawing from foreign en-
tanglements
The League of Nations commission and an
American general, meeting in London. have
reached secret agreement whereby an Amer
lean is to be the chief adviser COR Liberia.
according TO reliable reports Just what
Washington expects to gain from getting
deeper into the Liberian mess is not clear.
But it is clear that, If the great powers
insist upon putting a foreign boss over that
supposedly free land, representative should
be chosen from some country which has no
imperialistic ambitions in the dark continent.
Because of the Firestone concession and
loan, America has the reputation of dominat-
ing Liberia. If now we insist upon an Amer
lean as chief adviser TO that government. it
will be difficult TO convince the world that
we have no selfish interests to serve.
The Liberians naturally do not want an
American They are willing to accept Scan
dinavian. Our government should be only too
glad to agree to such a proposal and thus be
relieved of further responsibility in Liberia

A BLANKET RECOVERY

CODES for individual industries are being
~ presented to the recovery administration
rapidly as could be expected despite the
delay and evasion Of some short-sighted in
dustries But al best, several months Of hear
ings and negotiations will be required TO get
most Of the codes into operation.
Meanwhile. commodity prices and the cost
of living are rising rapidly. OF course the
administration desires such a lift in price
levels But It had hoped that yhe price move
merit could be restrained until a compensat-
ing rise in wage Levels and mass purchasing
power occurred.
There has been some increase in purchas-
ing power. United States labor department
figures just published show 100000 more per-
sons employed in June than in May. an in
crease Of 7 per cent.
But the increase is both inadequate and
spotty A few industries such as textiles and
beer account for disproportionate share.
Hence the grave concern Of the administra-
ton over the widening spread between prices
and purchasing power. Unless the two curves
can be brought closer together soon. there
Will be a slump
Much of the manufacturing recovery TO
date has represented merely movement of
goods from factory to stores middleman buy
ing and stocking against further price rises
But merchants shelves are filling and goods
are not moving out into the hands Of con-
sumers with equal speed.

and more wages into the pockets of con-
sumers with which TO buy goods Immediately.

Hugh Johnson have recommended 10 the
President a blanket code for all industry
In theory it would be temporary. operating
only until all major individual codes can be-
come effective It would be voluntary de-
pending upon the loyalty and intelligence of
employers for compliance with shorter hour
and higher wage provisions
The experiment should be and doubtless
will be made as temporary expedient But
it should not be permitted to sidetrack the
safer and more efficient machinery for indi-
vidual codes. set up by the recovery act.

To be sure, this story has drawn indig-

LET'S HAVE A CLEANUP

(By Mayor George r. Dale. in Muncie ost-DemocraD
d ALPH HOWARD, who was sent to the
Perdleton reformatory in 1881 has been
sent back to the state penal farm for an in
determinate period.
I do not mean by this that Howard was
prisoner who was incarcerated for crimes, or
judgment of courts. He served for seventeen
years as superintendent of the penal farm. and
was promoted in 1881, when Captain Miles was
removed by former Governor Leslie, who
placed Howard as head of the Pendleton
penitentiary
Governor McNutt reinstated Captain Miles,
mighty good appointment, believe, but the
Governor certainly has been misinformed as to
Ralph Howard
The Indianapolis Times, the courageous
Scripps- Howard publication which has done
heroic service TO keep crooked politicians in
their place is printing series of articles on
the horrors of the state penal farm.
Unfortunately the horrors described by The
Times up TO date, cover but a comparatively
recent era. That the things SO graphically de-
scribed daily by The Times were practically
the same ten years ago when Ralph Howard
was superintendent. can vouch for person
ally, for I spent three days on the farm" as
Convict No. 1873. the charge against me
being contempt of judge.
Elsewhere in this issue I am reproducing
story published in the Post-Democrat under
date of March go 1928 Immediately after my
release.
I am a fairly good reporter and told what
I saw. and 1t is almost uncanny that The
Times, ten years later. gives a similar picture,
of present day conditions. I am not saying
that Captain Howard should be removed from
his position. No man should know better than
he what is needed at the penal farm
But if he is allowed to retain the position,
there should be no covering up Of real condi-
lions during his long service as superintendent
Personally believe as wrote ten years
ago. that the Indiana state penal farm. which
I then designated as The Times OF today does,
the Black Hole" of Indiana, should be abol-
ished
However. during the many years that

and so he transformed the problem
into a moral issue. Many followed
this leadership. and whenever de-
bates were held the anti-RuSsian
side almost invariably would con-
tend that il was not motiyated by
anything gross and materalistic.

nance against RuSSias attitude to-

property rights.
Almost overnight the whole COM

that recognition will be extended
within the year And many of the

state irreligion and easy divorce so
