of industrial production turned down.
ward a little. In the third quarter
the declines have become pronounced.
The volume of industrial output
has fallen by distinctly more than the
normal seasonal percentage. Unem-
pioyment is growing and the burden
of public relief payments is increasing
in even greater degree. There have
been rather serious declines in the
security markets.
Building construction, except for
public projects, is at low level. There
has been disappointingly small in
crease in new private financing. Busi-
ness sentiment is clearly beset by
doubts. and its policies are being
guided by self-protective caution.
Business has become thoroughly con-
servative, and has created an atmos-
phere of affairs in which enterprise
is hesitant and adventurous initiative
Is almost suspended.
Probably the most important cause
Of the slowing down of business Is
the drought, which has become a
truly serious calamity. Another factor
Of perhaps comparably great i'm
portance is the high cost of produc-
ton resulting from the increased
wages and shortened hours imposed
by the codes. The restraining effects
of high costs are evident in the small
volume of new building, and they are
reflected in many second-quarter cor
poration reports showing large volumes
Of business with meager margins Of
profits"

A. T. & T. Declares
Dividend of $2.25
On Common Stock
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, August 15-Directors
Of the American Telephone & Tele-
graph Co. today declared the regular
quarterly dividend of $225 on the
capital stock. The payment means
disbursement of more than SAL 300 900
among the company's $4,000 share
holders.
The dividend is payable October Is
to stock of record September IS.
Authorization of the regular divi-
dend met the expectations of well-in-
formed Wall Street quarters, although
brokerage circles discussed the posi-
bility of a cut in the rate when the
stock was driven down to 1884 low
of $105.75 about fortnight ago.
Again the company had to draw
upon reserves to make the payment,
since earnings for the first half Of
the year amounted to but $3.50 share
against the dividend requirement Of
$3.50.
With today's declaration, the COM
pany maintains unbroken its record
Of So annual disbursements since 1921.

Troubles Due to Selfish
Character of Rewards

To the Editor Of The Star:
Undoubtedly, "individualism mott
waited by the hope Of reward has
brought about modern civilization"
as stated In the letter Of Caleb s.
Miller, in the Star of october Is.
However, Socialism, in its broadest
sense, can succeed only through the
success and prosperity Of all COM
munity members. The community
can prosper only from the applied
ambition Of its individual components.
Mr.. Miller himself admits the So
cialistic premise when he mentions
that humanity ought to benefit from
material inventions. Socialism visu-
alizes only q more general distribu-
tion Of benefits, material and spiritual.
The individualist of the future will
receive rewards in ever greater meas
ure but the rewards will be more al
truiStic. The current troubles of our
community are not due to giving
too many rewards; they are due to
the cheap and selfish character of re-
wards which it has been customary
to desire. Rewards there must al
ways be to inspire individual effort:
the producer need not always share
in the material benefits of his labor,
but he must control the ALLEGATION of
those benefits. Vicarious enjoyment of
benefits will furnish more lasting con-
tentment to the producer; that en-
joyment will. in fact, constitute his
oraa toct r,oScihlo raward

Hauptmann in New Jersey.

The preliminary legal procedure In
the case of Richard Bruno Haupt-
mann, accused of the kidnapping and
killing of the Lindbergh child and
of the extortion of money from the
father, has ended with the delivery
of the prisoner by New York to New
Jersey and he is now held in the
latter State for trial for murder. He
was arrested in New York for posses
sion of the ransom money and was
indicted in that State for extortion.
He was then accused of the crime
of murder in New Jersey. Requisi-
tion for his extradition was made and
it was granted by Gov. Lehman and
sustained by the court of first in
stance and by an appellate court.
Yesterday he was transported across
the Hudson and is now held for trial,
Just one month from the time of his
arrest.
1t Is an odd feature of this case
that there is no formal charge against
Hauptmann of the kidnapping of the
child, the New Jersey charge being
that OF murder and the New York
charge that of extortion. The PEN
atty for the former crime is death;
that for the latter Is twenty years

To the Editor OF The Star:

To the Editor Of The Star:
Does money talk? The Star edito-
rially answers this dominant issue in
current politics adequately indeed. But
let's bring the issue down to the brass
tacks OF local politics and begin by
reprinting that quotation from the
Democratic guide" book:
The amount in which each State
participated in this tP. w. A. and
other forms Of emergency relief Is
available by States at Democratic ma
tional headquarters, and will be sup
piled on request"
Now alongside this let us quote from
circular entitled THE Futility OF
Fusion" just issued "by authority Of
the Democratic State Central Com
mittee Of Montgomery County (Md).
z. M Waters, secretary"
Few jurisdictions in the United
States are called upon for such inten-
sive cooperation with the National
Government as neighboring Mont
gomery County. Support Of the Fu-
sion ticket spells betrayal and nom
cooperation with the administration
of President Roosevelt"
And from another leafiet, entitled
Logic:

cry County receive from Democratic
State administration and Legislature
II such men. masquerading under the
name of Fusion party, were elected?

men to office?"

operation? Let's see.

sisting in circulating a petition
amongst the voters Of the county
necessary to having the Fusion ticket
entered on the ballot. lest there be
no opposition at all for any OF the
local Democratic candidates. Civil
service employees were prohibited by
a special ruling from signing this pc
tition even though the failure Of the
petition to carry enough names would
have deprived them OF their suffrage
unless we are to call the elections
OF Mussolini or Hitler "suffrage"l
A relative of one of the signers,
unemployed for many months, had a
relief work job with Federal funds
under county control. A few days
after the petitions were filed the
boss" approached this employe with
the following query: Would you bite
the hand that feeds you?" even
though he had not himself signed the
petition.
Does money talk? And what Is
the proper repartee in such politi-
cally pecuniary conversation? That
the party organization is coming to
think it will be sweeping rebuke at
the polls is strongly suggested by the
pious protest of the county chairman
that no one in the organization has
ever suggested that Federal emer-
gency jobs in Montgomery County
hinge upon the success Of the Or
ganization ticket. But the gentleman
is obviously trying to carry water on
both shoulders, for the logic of his
campaign literature is plainly
syllogism on the "futility of fusion"
in this little matter of 'co-operation." :"
How did that work boss know who
had signed that petition?

Industry Leads in Safety.
From the Mansfield tohiO) News-Journal.

Prom the Mansfield tOhio) News-Journal.
With the forecast of the Safety
Congress that automobile accidents in
the United States probably would
reach a new high for 1884, it is re-
assuring to have the same body an
nounce that accidents in industry
have been greatly reduced in recent
years.
Until a few years ago industrial ac-
cidents were in the lead. Then a real
effort was made to eliminate them.
Employers co-operated with workers.
Safety devices were installed and
safety education campaigns were con-
Quoted. Today. it is said, it is safer
to 60 to work in a steel mill than to
go motoring in city traffic. Operators
of dangerous machinery in factories
have to pass severe tests to prove
competence or they are not allowed
TO use the machinery. But some States
do not make the prospective motorist
pass a similar fitness test.
