Who Pays for All the
Broken Milk Bottles /?
To the Editor Of The Star:

To the Editor Of The Star:
Some time ago, ! believe; every one
was required to leave deposit Of 2
cents on each bottle of milk purchased
from the store. Now no deposit is re-
quired from the purchaser from the
store or direct from the dairy. The
result is that many Of the bottles
are broken and strewn over the side
walks to cut the feet Of pedestrians.
I have on several occasions picked up
the remnants of bottles and placed
them in the tree boxes. The auto
mobile owners have, no doubt, been
put to the expense of tire repairs by
these broken bottles. Some find their
way to the trash or refuse boxes and
some are strewn over the alleys in the
rear of homes. No doubt the pur-
chaser pays enough for his milk at
13 cents . quart to cover this loss,
hence the reason for not charging
a deposit on the bottles. What are
we going to do about It?

A Wise Decision.

Restrictions against establishment
Of liquor sales places neal the schools
were demanded with extraordinary
vigor and unaninnity by citizens, and
1t is believed the Alcoholic Beverage
Control Board has acted wisely and
in the public interest in granting such
restrictions. The desire of local citi-
Zens that such restrictions be made
effective was voiced at the very be-
ginning of the Commissioners attempt
to frame a local control law that
would as far as possible represent the
prevailing sentiment of the commu-
nifty. While there was a natural and
wide difference of opinion on many
points, the proposed restrictions in
the protection of school children and
Of home neighborhoods won over
whelming popular support.
The passage of the bill, though
changed in form from the measure
recommended by the Commissioners,
left it within the power of the
Commissioners, through the Control
Board, to impose these and other re-
strictions. The exercise of that power
In line with distinctly prevailing
public sentiment has strengthened the
hands of the board and the Com
missioners in dealing with the regu-
lation Of the liquor traffic now and
later, when some of the problems
now in the making will become acute.
The board will not err as long as it's
decisions are based on determination
to act in every case in promoting and

tiles would meet social need which
as the c. w. A. surveys and other re-
cent studies have shown-is already
urgent and increasing continually.
Most Of the regular channels for this
financing have been inactive during
the past two or three years, because
they could not collect upon overdue
mortgages. The President proposes
one practicable means Of cashing
that paper. A substantial revival of
building should result. Directly, that
would put several thousand skilled
laborers to work; indirectly. it would
stimulate many kinds of business"
There isn't any doubt" declares
the Oshkosh Northwestern, that the
interests of those who have their saw
ings tied up in real estate mortgages
need and are entitled to protection. as
we'll as those who have borrowed
money on their homes and found
themselves unable to pay. The pro-
gram will give relief to those whose
homes are imperiled by delinquent
mortgages and interest payments"
The same paper also mentions the
point that 'it is the expectation that
out Of the funds to be made available
further assistance can be extended
for the modernization Of homes and
making of repairs"
This underwriting of the bonds Of
the Government" remarks the Hou-
ston Chronicle, will have two bene-
fetal results: First, it will stimulate
the reflnancing of homes now held
by persons in distress; mortgage
holders will more readily accept the
bonds under the new conditions, and
probably will be willing to write of
more Of the face Of their loans. Sec
ond, the home loan board will get a
better type Of property for security on
its loans"
Significant figures bearing on the
housing needs Of the Nation have
been compiled by the Southern Pine
Association, after study of various
Government and commercial statis-
tics" says the Danville Commercial
News. "An Of the sources of informa-
ton do not agree on details, but the
general conclusion is that, based on
the averages of other years, the coun-
try is short many millions Of houses,
and the cost Of building up to a
normal basis would be in the neigh
borhood Of $30,000,o00.

President Roosevelt's message to
Congress urging guarantee of the
principal of the home loan bonds as
well as the interest is we'll. received
by the press of the country. OBJ
servers regard this step as a logical
one in the administrations program
looking toward the release Of frozen
assets.
If the mortgagors Of the American
homes are permitted to protect their
equities by q Government plan which
will give value received to the mort
gagees, there can be no loss to those
not entitled to lose states the Fort
Worth Star-Telegram. Persons who
are striving prodigiously to protect
their home investments, regardless of
the shoe string purchases they so
often represent, are a too valuable
citizenship possession to be left un-
protected" The Connellsville Daily
Courier thinks the Presidents message
a very timely suggestion and one
Congress should act upon promptly" )"
while the Jersey Observer is of the
opinion that 'the bill, If enacted. will
remove the last barrier to saving
homes now threatened with fore
closure. because the holders of the
mortgages have refused to accept the
home loan bonds with only the
interest guaranteed"
While conceding that the Home
Loan Banks and the H. o. L. c.
"have undoubtedly prevented thou
sands of foreclosures" the Cincinnati
Times-Star calls attention to the fact
that they have failed thus far to
break the credit jam that blocks the
construction of hundreds of thou
sands Of new homes in the United
States" The Philadelphia Evening
Bulletin believes that there Is no
reason why the country, with the
path so clearly blazed by existing
legislation and institutions, should
not take the home mortgage out OF
the category of freezable assets"
1T has been the reluctance OF some
mortgage holders to accept the type
of bonds that were offered in ex-
change that has prevented the con-
summation of negotiations in many
classes" points out the Escanaba
Daily Press, adding that with the
Government standing squarely behind
the bonds, as to both interest and
principal, an unquestioned standing
and value will be given to those bonds,
facilitating the work Of bringing re-
lief to distressed home owners" The
Pasadena Star-News is convinced that
what Is now sorely needed Is easier
financing or refinancing Of mortgage
loans. Government well may help in
this until banks and private institu-
tions are in Q position to do so,
concludes this paper.
"The President" says the San An
tonic News, considers the moral OBJ
legation already exists; the legisla-
ton proposed simply would acknowl-
edge that debt formally" This paper
continues: with home-loan bonds
made negotiable at face value or
thereabouts, many more mortgages
would be uquidated. That would re-
lease funds which could be lent upon
new home building and home-im-
peovssnent enterprises. Such actiy-

Aid for American Shipping.

0Au AoA AnCA4SoA PAA6'
The administration, through Secre-
tary Roper Of the Department Of
Commerce, has recommended to four
committees Of Congress legislation re-
vising the entire system Of Govern
ment aid to the overseas American
merchant marine. At present the
payment Of the Government for
carrying the mails is the system
adopted for aid to the merchant
vessels. This payment has come to
be dubbed ocean mail subsidies"
There has been criticism, whether
just or unjust, Of the award Of the
ocean mail contracts. And some of
the critics have gone so far as tc
urge that the whole list Of contracts
be Cancelled. Fortunately. it appears.
the administration has had q recent
lesson in the matter of canceling
mail contracts in haste. It Is going
about the matter of dealing with the
ocean mail service in more orderly
manner, and certainly will lose none
of the respect of the country for
avoiding a haste that has proven SO
costly in the other course.
1t has been apparent for years that
some kind of Government aid was re-
quired to keep the American nag
afloat over merchant vessels in the
foreign trade. There are two reasons
for this-first, the higher cost OF ship
construction in this country, and, Sec
ond, the higher cost of ship operation
under the laws Of the United States.
The cost of construction is higher
here because Of the higher standards
of living and wages in this country.
Congress is responsible for the higher
cost of operation, since it put
through the laws compelling Ameri-
can ships to provide better working
conditions and greater safety at sea.
After the World War the American
people were determined not to return
to the pre-war situation, when Amen-
can merchant vessels had been swept
from the seven seas by foreign COM
petition. The late President Harding
strove in vain to put through direct
ship subsidy law. The Democrats
and the Progressive Republicans de-
clined to support it. although it was
recognized generally that American
shipping could not continue without
some aid from the Government. To
meet the situation ocean mail con-
tracts were adopted-a subsidy in
disguise.
President Roosevelt has come to the
conclusion that it is better for all
parties, including the country, to deal
with the merchant marine subsidy
directly. The Roper plan calls for
direct subsidy contracts with ship
lines, based on the differentials in
building and operating costs. The need
of trade penetration" and other con-
ditions, such as foreign subsidies to
foreign shipping would also be taken
into consideration. The contracts
would be made with shipping lines for
the payment Of the subsidies In re-
turn for agreement to operate under
the American flag for certain periods
Of years. The contracts would be
Sufficiently flexible" which seems to
mean that they would be adjustable
in years of good or bad business. And
they would provide for necessary re-
placements.
How the proposal will be received
by a Congress which has provided
vast subsidies for all kinds of things,
but which SHES violently at the name
Subsidy" when it is brought into the
open, remains to be seen.
