decreased because of his success in
stabilizing employment.
By this Offset principle sentiment
will be created favorable to the en-
actment of state laws, as the inhabit-
ants of the several states will prefer
keeping their money at home rather
than contributing it to the federal
government. At the same time the
federal tax upon employers who are
not operating under state laws would
+! impose an undue handicap in inter-
state competition.
A striking feature of the federal
bill is that it does not dictate to the
states what manner of laws they
should pass. Each state may prescribe
statewide funds, industrial pooled
funds, or individual reserves. Each
state may determine whether contri-
buttons are to be by employers, by
employees, or by both, and whether
the state is to bear a share of the
cost. This means that each of the 48
states may become an experimental
laboratory for the testing of the wis
Iom of particular proposals for the
relief of the unemployed.
At the same time the federal law
provides that there will be no Offset
allowed to an employer unless that
state law under which he is operating
is a genuine unemployment compen-
sation law that comes up to decent
minimum standards. No state law will
be certified by the Secretary of Labor
unless it provides for:
1. Regular contributions by employ
ers.
2. Systematic weekly benefits of at
least $500 or else 20 hours earnings
for at least 10 weeks or else a period
fairly measured by past employment.
3. No insuring through private in
surance companies.
4. State administration or super
vision with joint advisory committee
assisting.
5. Impartial hearings on disputed
compensation claims.
6. Specific safeguards for labor
standards and union membership.

PAYING IT'S WAY

We believe that general rule citizens realize the inn
porant work being done by the forest conservation corps
apty termed the CCC But for those who still have
their doubts to its value point to bulletin just issued
concerning it. According to the bulletin $4,000 members of
the corps % states aboring to check the white pine
blister rust which timber valued billion dollars
In other states the CCC eliminating blight which is STAY
ing millions of dollars worth of elm trees With the u S.
already facing timber shortage anything that threatens its
trees serious matter and demands immediate attention
The CCC paying its way doing what should have been
done In addition it is preventing soil erosion
bringing greater protection against forest fires better high
ways and communication lines thnly settled districts
and dozens of other things that the country has long needed
And for generations to it's worth will be realized.

Professor Bellashci, Westinghouse
research engineer, tells the American
Institute of Electrical Engineers that
science, which can make artificial
lightning" is now able to reproduce the
shattering force of the lightning, as
well as its light effect. This is done by
adding 100000 amperes to the artificial
bolt
The ancients believed that Jove
hurled his thunderbolts at those whom
he disliked, hence the lightning and
thunder. Scientific men may actually do
it. That would max future war even
more unpleasant The airplane is fast
enough in destruction, but electricity
goes around the world seven times in a
second. If a man in Toxic could launch
thunderbolt and hit Moscow, Paris or
Berlin in tenth of second later, that
would be real war, and world peace
would become necessary.

Mr.. Morgenthau, Secretary of the
Treasury, apparently agreeing with
Carlyle that "the more men talk, the
more likely they are to do nothing else,"
tells Washington correspondents frank
ly that he does not mean to take them
into his confidence concerning the Pres
ident's plans for currency "stabiliza-
tion," and discussions with Great Brit
ain on that subject, etc.

The country gathers in vague way
that this country has set up "Stabil-
ization Fund" of two thousand million
dollars, which will be used to buy or
sell currency. according as our n ttional
wisdom may dictate, to put our dollar
up or down, or keep it steady, as we
choose. Half dozen experts will be
consulted, but not one will know whose
advice has been taken; only the Pres
ident and Mr.. Morgenthau will know.
Apparently there will be discussions
with Great Britain and an agreement if
possible, fora currency war with Great
Britain, says Mr. Morgenthau, would
be expensive for both countries.
The public. blissfully ignorant, can
only hope that our conversations"
with England about money will not
turn out as did our conversations about
warships at the Washington Confer
ence. Then the United States junked
new battleships, some half-fnished, and
England junked blue-prints.
The British are able "conversers."

There is little left of Nelson, prob

in the cask, drank the rum. The body

Now, after one hundred and twenty

Watson's Face Is Saved

Watson was somewhat indignant.

didate for the place" he declared.
Should the majority of my party
feel that with me in the chairman

be brought together, I should be

The general belief here is that if
the national committee were polled
tomorrow, Senator Watson would
have more pledged votes than any
one would think.
But it also is being predicted that
he can not overcome the opposition
of such powers as Charles D. Hilles
of New York, big acknowledgements

Colonel Frank Knox of the Chi

prominently as a likely candidate

could not be Iured to take it, is being
discounted. He has been exceed

lin Now Unable to Present
RobinSon'S Name to
State Convention.
BY DANIEL NJ. KIDNEY
Times staff Writer.

WASHINGTON, May 4.-Whether
or not he is chosen as the successor
to Everett Sanders, also Hoosier,
who resigned yesterday as Repub-
lican national chairman, former
Senator James z. Watson of Indi-
ana must be feeling good today.
For Mr.. Sanders has called a
meeting of the @. o. P. national
committee for the purpose Of elect
ing his successor at Chicago on
June 5.
That is the very date that the
Indiana state convention is sched-
uled at Indianapolis.
That is the date that former Sem
ator Watson was scheduled to pre-
sent to the state convention the
name of his longtime political foe
and still no personal friend-Sen-
ator Arthur R. Robinson-to sue
coed himself as the Republican
nominee.
So, win or lose, the national
Craftsmanship, the nonpareil Hoosier
politician, our Jim, will be at the
Chicago meeting and politely can
wiggle out Of his very unpleasant
scheduled task.
That Senator Watson actively
has been boosting his own candi-
dacy for the national Craftsmanship
generally is conceded here, that is,
it is conceded by most every one but
Senator jim, which in many opin-
ions from press and politicians
makes the score perfect.
Asked regarding his Campaign, ="
when the Sanders resignation was
