The Relief Bill.

Again the question Of direct Fed
has arisen in the Senate. The La Fol-
lette- -Costigan relief bill, with its half
billion-dollar gift from the Federal
Treasury, has brought the question
squarely to the front. Under existing
law, the sum Of three hundred million
dollars was nade available last year
TO be loaned to States and to munich
qualities for relief. As a substitute for
the La Toilette Costigan proposal now
flor a Federal "dole," Senator Wagner
of New York, Democrat, and one OF
the leaders af his party in the Senate
bn the subject of unemployment relief,
has proposed that the present fund for
loans be increased to six hundred mil
lion dollars. Assuredly the New York
Senator has made wise proposal. Nor,
indeed, are other Democratic Senators
inclined to have their new admins
tration launched with direct govern
ment subsidy to the unemployed.
Thia is no new question, either to
The Congress or to the American peo-
pie. fhe present administration, headed
by President Hoover, has fought against
the adoption of direct Federal dole"
to the unemployed. As substitute for
such aid, it was provided that States
which found it impossible to obtain
money to grant relief to the unemployed,
either through taxation or through pri-
yate gift, could borrow money for this
purpose from the Federal Government.
through the Reconstruction Finance
Corporation. It is that arrangement
which the La Toilette Costigan bill has
sought to overthrow and to substitute
direct gifts by the Federal Government.
Whose money is it the Senators from
Wisconsin and Colorado, La Toilette
and Costigan. propose to give away9
There is only one source from which the
Government of the United States re-
ceives its own income, the people. 1t Is
proposed, therefore, to give away the
peoples money.
Such a gift in such cause is not
the real evil. The evil lies In the dan
ger that once the Federal Treasury has
been tapped directly, there win be no
stopping the flow of money. Other peo-
pies have found disaster IN govern
ment dole. Millions of men and women
may find it easier to live on Federal
contributions than to work. Under ex-
isting conditions in this country, there
are millions of men and women who
are out of work through no fault Of
their own. They would gladly 60 back
10 work. But there are other millions
who may have no such urge.
President Hoover has given indication
that he has not changed in his opposi-
tion to a direct Federal contribution to
She unemployed. A presidential veto
would have the effect Of halting at the
present session such measure, unless
by a two-thirds vote Of both houses OF
Congress it could be passed over the
veto. 1t does not appear that such a
vote could be mustered.
When the new Congress meets in
March or April, as it is now expected
30 do, this question of Federal dole,
a direct contribution, will come again
to make It's bid for support. The Pres
adent-elect. Mr.. Roosevelt, will have to
make his decision on the question. If
he Is opposed TO setting up Federal
dole, he will have to deal with the sub
deet promptly and firmly.

Taxieab Regulation.

The attempts by the Public Utilitie,

So is the unprecedented action by Con-
gress, taken through legislative ride,
on an appropriation bill, effectively tc

GUS speeches on the Hill condemnins
the Public Utilities Commission create
nothing hut noise, The records Of the
Public Utilities Commisson and of Con-
gress in attempting to do something
about taxicabs will not stand honest
comparison.
After considerable time and the most
thorough investigation yet made of the
local taxicab situation, the Public Util-
titles commission successfully defended
its decentralization order In the Dis
trict Supreme Court The court upheld
the commissions right to order meter
installation and agreed with the COM
missions findings that the zone and
rental cab systems permit the exploita-
ton of cheap labor.
But instead of making its own ex-
animation of the facts and taking its
own action based on the facts; instead
Of leaving the business of regulating
taxicabs to the commission set up for
that very purpose, Congress hamstrung
the expenditure Of money to enforce the
commissions orders relating to meter
installation, wholly negative, obstruc-
tive action. Congress is advised to do
the same thing this year, as the Dis
trict bill contains the same legislative
rider. Practically the only tangible fact
produced by the proponents of this
curious expedient to confound orderly
processes of public regulation was that
if meters were required y would cost a
member Of Congress more money to ride
from the Capitol to his home than 1t
does now.
The commission has repeatedly rec
commended legislation empowering 1t to
demand liability insurance for taxicab
operators. The courts have held that
the commission lacks that power with
out specific legislative authority. Con-
gress has done nothing about it. Yet
the commission is blamed, IN the House,
because wild and woolly taxicab drivers
are not required to carry insurance to
compensate those whom they OCCASION
ally catapult through their windshields
The commission is right in pinning
the blame for the continued lack of
regulation of the taxicabs squarely
where it belongs. Congress is re-
sponsible.
