Johnny Kirschenbaum has re-
verted to his old form, the squat
crouch stance which gives him
such exceptional distance with his
drives, and with which he used to
out-drive such long hitters as Har-
ry Hampton and Willie Kemp.
While he has not yet gotten back
into this form exactly, yet his
drives show more of the old pep

TINE Costigan-La Toilette Wagner hunger
l. relief bill introduced in congress Monday
with administration backing, is a $500, 600, 900
lifeline thrown in the nick of time toward the
nations 100000 destitute families
With less than s7OOOO,OOO left in the R. r.
C. hunger loan fund that federal cupboard
would have gone bare by May. States and
communities desperately in need of funds now
can breathe more easily, in the assurance that
the families of their iobless citizens will not be
abandoned by the government.
The new bill, unlike the compromise loan
measure of last year, is built on sound relief
theory and practice. 1t acknowledges for all
time that the succor of starving citizens is a
federal as we'll as a local function.
In place of loans, the states will be handed
grants in sums sufficient to supplement their
own resources. Need will be the criterion
The grants will be administered, not cas-
ualy by preoccupied R. F. G. board, but eff
GENTLY, by trained relief administrator. In
stead of random relief doles ranging from Sc
month in certain southern states to $50
month in the larger cities, minimum and de-
cent reneI standard can be tXed, and, TO con-
siderable extent, enforced from Washington.
The BILL says Senator Wagner, recognizes
that not only must starvation be prevented but
that standards of relief must be lifted if the
growing generation is not to inherit all the
disastrous legacies of under nourishment and
generalization"
Finally, and not least important, is pro-
vision for adequate food and shelter for the
million or so young men and boys now being
kicked from freight yard to freight yard
throughout the country.
With passage of the pending forestation
bill and this wisely drawn measure, two steps
in the Roosevelt relief program will have been
taken, giving immediate outdoor work relief
for jobless men and emergency aid for the
hungry.

A TRAGIC EXAMPLE,

IN case you have wondered whether there is
= really any need to have the federal gov
eminent exercise a far stricter control over
stock issues, security speculation and fnan-
cial operations generally, you might ponder
over the tragic scene that took place before
Bankruptcy Referee Garfield Charles in
Chicago.
1t was the last day for filing claims against
two defunct insult financial houses and before
Charles there rose a mound of worthless paper
which weighed full ton.
This tremendous mass of paper represented
claims totaling $3OOoOOOOO, sent in by some
21000 investors. Today it is next to worthless
Speaking with moderation, Referee Charles
called it "the tragedy of the century"
No form of federal regulation can be too
drastic if it prevents thing like that from
happening again.

AN END TO PEONAGE

MYTH the season at hand for state road
W work to start in full blast, one action of
the state legislature comes in for special COM
mendation. That is the fixing of minimum
wage for laborers on Indiana highway projects
Enactment of this law should put an effec-
tive ban on the scandalous practice of peonage
barred on several highway jobs last summer,
when it was disclosed that common laborers,
with no alternative except loss Of their jobs,
were paid as low as Is cents an hour.
Despite the public clamor, contractors, bent
on squeezing every cent of profit out of every
project at the expense of their helpless en-
ployes, ignored all considerations of fairness
and decency to slash wages. Even the threat
Of the highway commission to blacklist all con-
tractors found guilty of the practice had little
effect
Common labor now may be paid not less
than 80 cents an hour, as result of the passage

BURDEN OF LOCAL TAXES

Il of economy in government. A magnif-
cent start seems to have been made at Wash

ing
But while we're rejoicing, we ought to re-
member that the federal government can
tighten only a part of our tax load.
City, county, and. state governments also
collect taxes and from most of us they COL
lect a good deal more than does the federal
government. Unless they, too, can cut their
expenditures very sharply, the economies in
stituted at Washington will be robbed of half
of their effect.
1t is up to us to see that our city council
men, our county commissioners, and our state
legislators understand this Uncle Sam has
shown the way; let's have some economy all
the way down the line now.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Of a law by the special session Of the legisla-
ture in 1882. This law requires that common
labor be paid on the same basis as mainte-
nance labor.
The wage scale is made part Of the con-
tracts let by the highway commission.
The minimum common labor wage scale on
federal aid projects is IS cents an hour, with a
limit Of thirty hours week for each man.
Even with the law being observed by con-
tractors, the contents of the weekly pay envel-
ope of the highway worker will be pitiful
enough, especially when it is considered that
the majority Of the men who work on the
roads are men with families, and many have
to keep cars to take them to and from their
work, often long distance from home.
For this reason, it behooves the highway
authorities to be eternally vigilant and make
certain that some grasping contractor does not
violate the law. Any attempt to circumvent
the wage provision should meet with swift
punishment, and everlasting blacklist for the
violator in the matter of state contracts.

But the most interesting thing about the
whole business was this:
Jimmie, badly outcassed in every test, was
nevertheless the happier of the two.
Expert Johnny wore a premature frown
most of the time. His responsibilities seemed
to rest heavily on mis- wee shoulders. He was
serious, very much in earnest, quite engrossed
by all his cares.
And Jimmie, unskilled and unworried, kept
wearing a cheerful grin. He was no great
shakes as an infant prodigy, and he didn't
care. His failures depressed him not at all He
was, in short perfectly happy child.
Just how much importance ought to be at
tached to this fascinating experiment isn't
clear. Probably the psychologists themselves
don't know.
But any parent who shares the old feeling
that flock of laughs and a long stretch of
utterly carefree happiness are among child
hoods most invaluable possessions will feel

from this test with the greater part of the

TUESDAY. MARCH %. 1899.
JAPAN QUITS
PAGE 10
"a scRIPPs-HowARp NEMsPAPERl

Japan has quit the league. Legally she can
not withdraw, because she has not given
two years notice and has not lived up to her
obligations under the covenant. But prac-
tically she is out, and has been out since Mr..
Matsuoka and his delegation walked out Of
the session which unanimously condemned
her Manchurian aggression.
Japans attitude is clarified by the unusu-
ally frank and sincere statement of Mr.. Mat
suoka to the ps-Howard newspapers. 1t
is clear that Japan, in her present mood, does
not intend to turn back or to allow treaties to
stop her march Of power on the neighborng
Asiatic mainland. She says she is acting in
defense of Aer life and death interests.
Unfortunately, Japan does not see, or is
not willing to admit, that she is helping to
wreck the worlds peace machinery. She says
that happier and more prosperous Man
churia will result from her actions.
Even if this were granted, for the sake
of argument, it has nothing to do with the
larger issue.
The treaties are the issue-not because of
mere idealistic sentiment but because they are
the only thing that stands between the world
and general return to international prepara
ton for war and world war.
If Japan can ignore the treaties, other ma
tons certainly will do likewise. If, after a
decade and more of experiment and hope
nations learn that treaties can not be trusted
they will put their trust in ornaments and
force
What Japan and certain European govern
ments fail to understand is that this logic of
events is operating in the United States. They
are so accustomed to thinking of America as
pacific nation that they do not realize that
the United States can go militarst along with
the others.
Mr. Matsuoka says we are the richest and
strongest nation in the world He might add
that it is not to the interest of Japan or others
to create situation which turns the strongest
nation of the world into a war power.
Mr.. MatSuoka knowS-and can tell his peo-
pie who do not know-that the United States
does not want to interfere in the far east and
does not want trouble with Japan. We are
getting out OF the far east, even to withdraw
ing from the Philippines.
But the United States, as a very practical
matter is trying to save the no-war treaties.
Unless Japan will accept settlement within
the framework of those treaties, the United
States, as we'll as Japan, will be freed from
the treaties.
Can Japan, with profit to herself, afford to
put the rest of the world back on an armed
to-the-teeth basis?
Mr.. Matsuoka has powerful influence in
Japan and he has an intimate understanding
of American opinion. If he will carry to his
government and his people the fact that
Americas pro-treaty policy is equally to the
interest of both countries, Mr.. Matsuoka will
perform a great service.

is BEER NEAR?

CERTAIN public officials have shown a dis
~ position to shillyshally over the problem
of making beer Immediately available in In
diana The brew which cheers, but does not
inebriate, has been legalized by both national
and state governments.
Yet there still is some headwagging over
the practicability of issuing permits in the
near future for its manufacture and sale.
Whether this delay is last-ditch conces-
sion to the dry irreconcilables or whether it
is due merely to the innate love of oficialdom
for red tape it is impossible to say But what
temporizing.
The plea that every applicant for a permit
must be investigated before he can sell is not
impressive. Certainly. every community in
the state contains hotels, clubs, and retailers
whose regulations are so far above reproach
that they may be trusted with permits at
once There are many thoroughly respectable
brewers in the same category.
There is no reason why high-grade insti-
tutions and individuals should be penalized
while questionable applicants are under
inquiry.
