office to guarantee a fixed profit to
distributors who have been proven
by departmental auditors to have
made as much as thirty per cent
annually on their invested capital.
In that connection, it is interesting
in the extreme to note that some of
these distributing companies have
been receiving tremendous salaries,
as revealed by the report given Il
short time ago to the Senate by the
Federal Trade Commission. Twenty
two executives, for instance, in two
of our leading national milk con-
Germs hauled down salaries in 1892
of more than million, or an average
salary per man of nearly fifty thou
sand dollars. That would have paid
the milk bills for a whole year for
thirty thousand children. A little
time with pencil and paper will
show that to pay these twenty-five
executives salaries for that year, it
took the gross income of 1850 farms.

hopes to use as means of improving
our relations with other powers as

hold on world markets for many of
our surplus products. Nor will it

of products and materials on the free

modities on this list are not assessed
any charge for entering our domestic
markets. and Congressional leaders
regard its preservation as important.
The measure is nothing revolu-
tiOnary, but represents the trend in
tariff legislation over great many
years. Little by little tariff legisla-
tion, originally one of the most i'm
portant and jealously-guarded func-
tions of the legislative branch, has
found it's way into the administrative
branch, either through grants of
power to the independent and semi
judicial Tariff Commission, or
through delegation of power to the
Chief Executive. This step Is I'M

the officials in the AAA, where some
doubt had begun to creep in as the
results of the continued attacks on
its policies by enemies who insisted
the act and its application to be UNI
constitutional.
Mention of the AAA recalls the
rather extended comment in this col
umn about two weeks ago regarding
the dairy situation. and particularly
the administrators policy regarding
production and sale of fluid milk in
cities. The department has continued
its resistance to the group of House
Members which organized, bitterly as
sailed the Department of Agriculture
and Secretary Wallace, and demanded
that the milk producers be guaran-
teed a minimum price, and that the
department also set a minimum re-
sale, or retail price.
The secretary now very properly
points out that he has not lowered
the price to the producer in a single
city as the result of his new policy,
but that he has increased it in sew
eral places. He has also most admir-
ably decided that he will not use his

sents the first actual break in the
dizzyfng climb, ever upwards, of the
various rates, especially since the
war. Other nations, retaliating in
self protection and perhaps in some
measure Of revenge, took similar ac-
lions with the result that economic
relations between nations have been
seriously disturbed. The President.
realizing this, dares boldly to ask
for power to lower some rates If by
so doing he can gain concessions
from nations interested in such rates
which will be of advantage to the
United States.
The Supreme Court, in an import
ant decision revolving around the
right of the State of New York to
control it's milk prices, has reaf-
firmed the position it took in approx
ing Minnesota's moratorium law, and
has thereby given even more clearly
its approval to the general character
of legislation embodying the several
fronts of the New Dealers attacks on
depression.
Its Importance will be reflected in
the added assurance on the part of

ing to interfere with the departments
program for restricting distributors,
increasing the prices of milk and but
terfat to farmers everywhere, instead
of just around the larger cities, and
in addition of giving the milk to the
consumer at price which will slim
ulate consumption and create an adj
ditional demand.
Indications are that these develop
ments, together with other considera-
lions that cannot be discussed for
want of space, may result in thor
ough investigation by the Federal
Trade Commission into the whole
milk distribution business. Certainly
it has developed in recent years into
decidedly big business institution,
with all the earmarks of a powerful
centralized domination, and with
racketeering and violence to be added
to the exorbitant profits that have
been shown up.

THE NATIONAL

The Presidents request for power
to enter into trade agreements with
other nations which might provide
for raising or lowering of existing
tariff rates, commented on briefly in
last weeks letter. has been modified
considerably as the result OF the
sharp protests it aroused in Congress.
Proposing originally to be permanent
legislation, and to repeal the exist
ing flexible provisions entirely, under
which the Tariff Commission recon-
mends changes to the President after
study, the amended plan seems likely
to provide for a three year period OF
operation of the new system. and

STATE POLITICS SIZZLING

Developments yesterday in California
politics indicate real battle involving
bakers dozen or so of candidates who
have aspirations to sit in the governors
chair at Sacramento.
Until definite announcement is made
by Governor Rolph, his part in the COM
ing campaign is largely problematical.
Despite emphatic denials by some of his
followers, there are underground rumors
emanating from supposedly informed
sources, that the governors physical con-
dition will not permit another campaign.
That the governor is an extremely
sick man is quite probable and not sur
prising The strenuous life he has lived
for the past three years would tax the
vitality of a much younger man, and the
governor is by no means young man.
However great political differences may
be, the people of the state generally will
regret that the governors health is not
good, for personally he is held in high
esteem
If he declines to become a candidate
for reelection, there is likely to be quite
a scramble among his followers to sue
coed to the throne. ROLAND S. Vande-
grift and Earl Lee Kelly are mentioned
as possible candidates. Charles G. john
son, state treasurer, has already an
nounced his candidacy. so mas FRANK b.
Merriam, lieutenant governor, and c. c.
Young, former governor, is also in the
field. On the fence but reported to be
ready to toss his hat into the ring with
the assurance of heavy following, is
John R. Quinn, chairman of the Los An
geles board of supervisors and former
national commander of the American
Legion. If Quinn decides to run he will
be formidable candidate
All these candidates are from the Re-
publican fold only. The Democrats. have
Upton Sinclair to contend with; Milton
K Young would like another crack at
the Democratic nomination, while Justus
Wardell is campaigning" under the
guise of discussing the PWA or the CWA.
DR.. z. T. Malaby is another avowed cam
didate under the Democratic standard.
That there will be others before the
August primary ballot is made up seems
to be certainty.
The large number of candidates indi-
Gates that the campaign is to be an inter-
esting one-and full of disappointments,
for there can only be one winner.
