NEWSPAPERS. OPINIONS
A POPULAR WAR

The Record commends the Raleigh News AMI
Observer which today announced declaration Of
war on drunken drivers.
A full list of all persons arrested IN November
by the state highway patrol, together with the
court action in each case disposed Of IS published
in todays issue of the Raleigh newspaper in launch
ING its fight. Each month hereafter the names o.
all such arrests are to be published regularly.
Readers of these columns know that The Record
is heartily back of the News and Observer IN It's
efforts to rid the state highways of the greatest
menace with which the motoring public must deal
We believe that it is imperative that drunken drlv-
inc must be outlawed, and this can be accomplished
if the general public will become militant and de-
n,and drastic court sentences in all cases of con-
victon.
Everyone should be in agreement on this propo-
sition for the liberal wet and the rabid dry both
have the same reason to want the highways kept
safe for themselves and their families. When the
ncopIe become sufficiently aroused no judge will
dare To temporize with the most dangerous of all
present-dav law breakers-the intoxicated man be-
hind a steering wheel Compared to him the man
CARRYING concealed weapons is relatively harmless
for he probably will never endanger the lives OF
moro than one or two persons at time, while the
drunken driver may snuff out the lives of whole
family accidentally" We commend the following
from the News ard Observer:
The News and Observer believes that drunken
drivers must be driven from the roads of North
Carolina. Officers must arrest such intoxicated
drivers as they would kill poisonous snake The
courts must treat them as the menaces to human
life which they are But back of both the courts
and the police must be the power of public opinion.
In this phase of the warfare drunken highway
killers The News and Observer pledges its fullest
cooperation.
I'm our society today the gangster, the murder

LIGHT, LATEST SYMBOL OF A
zee" CHANGING ERA
(BY BRUCE CATION

So far this year we have been trying 10
inryed to the idea that the things we
I'd to be sure of in economics and politics
only partly true. Now, just to symbol
e the Derplexity of the era, comes the re-
.ort that the last certainty of science like
Use has gone by the board.
The famous Nicholson speed-of-light
Measurements have been finished at Pasa-
.ena. Calf, by two scientists who have
cen working on them ever since PROBES
}r Michelson's death in 1881; and these
en- have made the amazing discovery that
aeaspeed of light is not constant, but fluc-
yates.
Now the interesting thing about this IS
hat modern physics has considered the
eloeity of light about the only thing IN
ne universe which never changes. Even
Linstein's relatively theory assumes that
his speed is a factory which is absolute.
But the painstaking experiments at Pas
adena have shown variations ranging
through margin of some II miles Sec
ond-and the lone certainty in moderr
physics is a certainty no longer.
Most of us, of course, not being physic'
ists and neither understanding nor caring
cry much about such things, will live ont
our lives quite unworried by this discovery.
And yet the thing has an aptness, pc
culiar and ironic timeliness, that makes il
stand as an illustration of the perplexities
of our times in all walks of life.

Farewell Address

Appreciation Of "a wonderful
response and a sincere interest"
among the people of the United
States for the people Of Egypt
was expressed last night by His
Excellency Sesostris SidarousS
Pasha, speaker over Station VOL
on the weekly radio treat Of The
Washington Times.
It was the farewell address Of
the Minister, who soon will leave
for his native country. A little
more than a year ago he sketched
the history of Egypt and gave
an idea of It's importance in the
history of mankind and in civili-
zation.
He said:
Il shall take home with me
a better knowledge and q
greater admiration for your
institutions as well as for the
high principles on which your
nation is based, and my aim
will be always to encourage the
good will between our two
countries and to enlighten my

cred here pending President-elect
Roosevelt's return from his yacht
ing cruise in the vicinity of the
Bahamas.
Information would indicate,
however, that James A. Farley,
Democratic national chairman,
today is the only man here who
could really predict a new job
holder-and he won't talk until
the return of Mr.. Roosevelt to the
Florida coast next week from his
vacation aboard Vincent Astor's
yacht Nourmahal.
Glass Uncertain
Senator Carter Glass Of Vir.
ginia had been put into the Cab
met rather definitely as Secre-
tary Of the Treasury. But word
seeped back to Miami overnight
that the Senator's family was
urging him not to take the posi-
ton because of his age.
AS nearly as could be ascer-
tanned, however, Glass still stands
as Secretary Of the Treasury in
the Roosevelt Cabinet. He held
that position under Woodrow Will
son and had the opportunity Of
pushing the Federal Reserve Sys-
TEN to a state of actuality. To-
day he is backing the branch
banking bill and would like to
see that become effective.
Successful Day Fishing
Farley has been in a whlrlwind
rush of social engagements since
his arrival here. Perhaps in self
defense he has decided to leave
early Sunday morning. Edward
j. Flynn, secretary of State Of
New York, his principal lieuten-
ant, already has departed from
the Miami -Biltmore Hotel and
headed north.
Word was passed here today
that Mr.. Roosevelt was occupying
his spare moments aboard the
Nourmahal preparing his inaugu-
raj address. The last message re-
ceived from the AStor yacht last
night read:

successful day bone fishing up

Changes Pending.

Despite reports that the Roper Gov

plates its abolition, the Federal Radio
Commission has effected a realignment
Of its activities along Democratic lines
to continue doing business at its old
stand.
With Judge E. o. Sykes, Mississippi
Democrat, as it chairman, the commits
sion has elected Col. Thad H. Brown,
Ohio Republican, to the vice chairman
ship. Assistant General Counsel George
B. Porter, an Iowa Democrat, has been
named acting general counsel. The
post Of general counsel is to remain
vacant indefinitely as an economy
measure.
Within the next few days the COM
mission Is expected to announce dis
missal of a number of employees. in
cluding several Republican officials.
This move has been necessitated both
by patronage requirements and by the
fact that the commissions appropria-
ton has been reduced by $4,000 to
S640,O00 FOR the next fiscal year-the
second drastic cut it has been forced
to take during the last few months.
In addition to the release Of employees
in Washington the commission is ex-
pected to release a number Of radio
inspectors and other employees in the
field. Several branch inspection odices
also may be closed.
