WHERE IS THE DIFFERENCE?

COMEBODY once remarked that the man
~ who sets out to solve the current problems
of milk production and distribution will find
before he gets through, that he has to solve
the greatest and knottest problems of modern
capitalism; and the farther you dig into the
matter, the truer that seems.
Dairy farmers complain that their income
is too low: milk consumers, that they pay too
much for milk. Shall We then leap vocifer-
ously on the middleman-the professor and
distributor?
Not. apparently, if We wish to be fair. The
milk distributors point to an exhaustive in
vestigation held not long ago by the New York
legislature. in which it was found that the
spread between producers and consumers
prices in the milk business is actually less
than in the case of many other farm COM
modites.
OF every dollar the New York consumer
spends for milk. for instance, A cents goes to
the farmer. Nineteen New York City milk
dealers examined were found to make. on an
average Just l cent profit on each 143 quarts
Of milk they sold.
Where then. is the trouble? Maybe that is
something for congress, or the AAA, to find
out; in any case. it would appear that blaming
everything on the middleman is not justified
by facts.

THUNDER ON THE RIGHT

ATAZI orators are invoking all their best
rhetoric in what they term the battle
Of the spirit" to sell Hitlerism to the German
people The oratorical onslaught is signif-
icant. for IL reveals what dispatches have
been limiting for some days. that Herr Hit
Iers regime at last is on the defensive.
Thunder against Hitlerism is rumbling
not from the left. but from the right.
The immediate challenge to the chancel-
lors power appears to be about to issue from
the conservatives. led BY Vice-Chancellor
Franz Won Papen. His speech Of June II,
boldly criticizing the Nazi policies, was sup
pressed in Germany but now is being boot
legged about along with other "verboten"
opinion. And what he said may awaken hope
among the suppressed minOrties and the
masses Of Germany even though ne himself
speaks for the privileged old regime. He de-
handed that the government permit free
criticism and quit treating the people like
morons. It is a mistake, he said, to think
that military discipline can be imposed upon
the entire life of the nation"
Whether Won Papen succeeds Hitler to
power or whether a royalist- military Dictator
ship supplants the NaH dictatorship Is really
Of less moment than the fact that at last,
the voice Of criticism is being heard in Ger
many.
Steel helmets may overcome brown SHIRTS.
Little systems may come and 60. But the
important thing is that the voices Of free men
Will not remain stilled for long. The Bat
tie Of the Spirit" that the Hitler stump speak
ers are fighting is only phase Of long war
Of the spirit that stretched far beyond
Socrates and will reach far beyond Hitler or
Won Papen And always sooner or later the
spirit Of freedom wins.

THE POCKET VETO

DRESIDENT ROOSEVELTS refusal to use
Il the pocket veto illustrates again the new
spirit Of csndor in the White House.
To pocket dill after adjournment is prop
or under the Constitution that says: IF any
bill shall not be returned by the President
within ten days Sundays excepted after it
shall have been presented to him, the same
shall be A law in like manner as if he had
signed 1t. unless the congress by their ad
iournment prevent its return, in which case
it shall not be a law"
Presidents from Jackson down have used
the pocketing device. often because they had
no time to study the proposed legislation
President Roosevelt says he'll take the time.
and either will approve or disapprove each
measure before him. Already he has vetoed
more bills than any President in the same
time in sixteen years.
Congress and the people have a right to
know why their measures are vetoed by the
executive. Pocketing deprives them OF that
right. They will rejoice that this practice
has gone the way of the White House spokes-
man.

LAUDS JUDGE COX
FOR BANK ACTION

BY Reader.
read the Message Center of The
Times with a great deal of interest,
and as I think the majority of the
reading public does.
Through the Message Center 1
would like to express my admiration
for Judge Earl Cox for the way ne
has had the closed banks inveSti-
gated. He is certainly judge for
Indiana to be proud Of. I would
like to see him Governor of the
state, as he does his duty fearlessly.
The banks close. Poor persons
who have worked like slaves and de-
MED themselves everything to save
little money, lose it all, while the
head men of the banks go on living
just as they did before the banks
closed. They have beautiful homes
in select parts of the city, some OF
them own several homes. while poor,
hard-working persons who lost their
money in these banks can not afford
to own even the humblest home.
These same bankers have two and
three fine cars. Those who lost
money in their banks can hardly
raise enough money to buy a token
to ride on a street car.

TRIPLE AS FIRST YEAR

nNE years operation is not enough for
~ Judging with any finality Triple AS serv-
ices to recovery and reform. This. particular
". is true since the worst drought in forty
years has upset rural economy over vast area
Of America
Its benefits so far are substantial from the
farmers viewpoint. If these benefits can not
argue for the broad policies behind the act
they certainly can answer the partisan and
sectional critics now attacking it.
According to Administrator Chester c.
Davis. 100000 farmers have in one year or
gained themselves into county production
control associations. signing crop control con-
tracts covering wheat. cotton, corn hogs and
tobacco. This in itself is an achievement in CO.
operation.
In the year ending in April the farmers
cash income, exclusive of benefit payments
from processing taxes, rentals and options, had
increased 20 per cent over the year previous.
Including rentals and benefit payments of
some $4,000 ,OOO the income from farm COM
modities was up 80 per cent. Last month prices
Of seven basic commodities including benefit
payments, were up so per cent over those of
March, 1893. Rising costs of things the farm
ers buy offset the income to some extent. Con-
gress has added sugar, beef cattle and drought
relief to AAAs scope of operations. Many
smaller marketing agreements also have been
entered into.
One of AAAs objects is to get some 50,OOO-
COO acres of overplanted lands back into for
age crops. Pledges IN the adjustment con-
tracts now give promise of reducing the sur
plus acreage by some 35OOOOOO to 100000
Critics are raising the point that the proc
essing taxes are unjust, since they help rural
states, but harm industrial states. Representa-
tive Taoer of New York quotes internal reve-
nue. figures to show that his state paid out in
processing taxes. s31,847,OOO, while New York
farmers received only SIS, 300 in benefits. On
the other hand. Texas and Louisiana farmers
got back five times more than the total tax
collections in their states.
If it we're true that consumers in the indus
trial states were paying all the processing
taxes collected in those states-and they are
not-there still would be no substantial in
justice done For years cities have drawn
population and wealth from the farm regions,
impoverishing the rural states and setting up
a double standard of American living
The industrial states have not scrupled to
force protective tariffs which the farmers paid
in higher living costs. If under Triple farm
ers can get back a fraction of this wealth they
will help the entire nation through the redis-
tribution. Here is the tariff in reverse, and
working for the farmer at last
Triple AS real significance lies, however,
in the magnificent audacity of its purpose
Here, for the first time in a democratic cap
italist country, is an attempt at rural planning
on nationwide scale. 1t may work, it may
not. If it does America will be enriched by a
prosperous farming class If it does not, some
other way to stop the descent toward peas
sntry or peonage will have to be found.

HOW MANY UNEMPLOYED?

THE American Federation of Labor reports
that in May 1O.267OOO workers were un-
employed.
The National Industrial Conference Board,
which certainly is no Pollyanna organization,
estimates the MAY unemployed at 100000.
Both organizations agree that at the bot
tom of the depression. in March, 1888. the
number of unemployed was in excess Of
100000. But they disagree as to the num-
Der that have been put back to work.
On the subject of unemployment these
two organizations furnish the best statistics
available. The fact that their estimates diff
fer so radically seems to us to be conclusive
proof that the Republicans in the last con-
greSs erred in blocking enactment of the un-
employment census bill. Because they feared
too many Democrats would be given jobs as
census takers around election time. the Re-
publicans defeated the measure which would
have enabled the government to gather
authoritative data needed for an intelligent
attack upon unemployment.

NO BEATING THE BUSH

TACKIEL JOSEPH. president of the park
board. is guilty either Of misinterpreting
or misunderstanding The Times urgings for

owners who live in their own homes and pay
taxes than any other section of Indianapolis.
not one public playground exists. That COM

A playground is needed badly in that sec

department lay plans to provide playground
for north side children by NEXT year-le35
There has been no agitation for immediate
setting up OF a north side playground. merely
a plea that city officials make plans to have
playground in that section OF the city by

The park department has no money for

DEAD BEATS" IN PUBLIC
POSITIONS ASSAILED

By Small Merchant.
AS a small merchant in business
in Indianapolis for the past fifteen
years, I ask you, which is the out
standing medium in Indianapolis to
help in a very important matter-a
problem which affects the large
merchant as well as the small one.
There is a small percentage OF
state, county and city employees who
will not pay their bills and who re-
ceive their pay regularly from public
money.
The merchant is afraid to force
payment and although the employ
ing boards have warned employees to
pay, a certain few just will not pay.
I think it the duty of the boards
in charge of state, county and city
employees to see that these employees
pay their bills promptly.
1t is a very sorrowful thing to
think that on account of the few
dead beats in the police and fire de-
partmentS, at the courthouse, city
hall. at statehouse and other public
institutions, reflection is cast upon
all public employees.
The boards should make it their
duty to see that this condition is
remedied at once and for all time.

sections Of the city. Correct. But thousands
On thousands of those who live on the north
side are not wealthy. Their children do not
all have front and back yards in which to
play.
That impression must be corrected. AND
mere must be no beating around the bush
bout pleas for a playground on the north
side. The least that can be done is a definite
)ian being laid for a site upon which play
round can be built by next year.

man appeared in federal court, was convicted,
and sentenced to seven years in federal
penitentiary.

crime would be vanishing just as swiftly.

Capital Capers
BY GEORGE ABELL

CENATOR DAVE WALSH, prominent member
~ of the naval affairs committee of the senate
from Massachusetts,. went up to Boston to pay
a visit to the German cruiser and training ship
Karlsruhe, at anchor there.
Dave was escorted about the decks by the
German commander He saw the mddes stand
at attention, noted the various features of the
vessel, seemed much interested
Finally, he turned to his escort and inquired
blandly:
rs this freighter or a passenger ship?"
EMBASSIES and legations, although most of
IL the ambassadors have gone or are going out
of Washington for the summer, continue to
function merrily.
There are no big parties. Formally is as
dead as the doorknob Mr.. Dickens mentions. But
there are isolated groups of amusement seekers.
And many hard-working ministers are still at
their desks.
The British embassy, although Ambassador
Sir Ronald Lindsay now is on the high seas
bound for England, is taking an enormous in
terest in the Scotch whisky problem British
diplomats are eagerly following reports and
opinions of the FACA federal alcohol control
board on the subject of Scotch.
The opinion is expressed here that the FACA
will hand down a definition (probably within a
month"; that Scotch whisky is whisky made
under the supervision of the British government
and aged three years. Both the importers and
the British naturally want this definition.
In connection with whiskies Irish Minister
Michael MacWhite is not taking a back seat.
He is busying himself with the similar problem
of Irish whisky and is hoping for a favorable
definition of this liquor from the board His
friends feel that the minister's definition of Irish
whisky is the best obtainable:
Its drink" says poetic Michael kissed
by the Irish sun and mellowed by Irish kind
ness"
A AMBASSADOR SAITO of Japan is one of the
n last ambassadors to leave the capital He
will sail for Japan on July with Nine. Saito
and their daughters
During his brief stay here, it is conceded in
diplomatic circles that the active, energetic en-
voy has done much to cement good relations be-
tween his country and the United States.
He recently has been entertaining distin-
guished japanese visitorS-such as Prince Fumi-
marc Konoye, president of the house of peers;
Prince Tokugawa, former president of the house
of peers and the latters son, who is Japanese
minister to Canada.
Under the aegis of Envoy Saito, whose ia
vorite drink is whisky Soda occidental bever-
ages have largely replaced oriental wines at
formal parties. The other night however, the
proverbiaL cup of saki wine was drained by
members of the japanese staff at a farewell din
ner in the embassy.
