WORK ON NEW PHILADELPHIA
ROAD

Barring unforeseen setbacks, work
on the new Philadelphia road is ex-
pected to get under way next month,
Abel Wolman, State Engineer of the
Public Works Administration, an
nounces.
The highway, which will cost in
excess of $3,5O0,000, will be dual
type, connecting the eastern bound
airy of Baltimore with Havre de
Grace. More than a year, possibly
eighteen months, will be required
for its completion.
One factor which will delay ma
terially the completion of the. road
is the plan Of construction engineers
to give all filed sections between
sixty and ninety days to settle before
paving is laid. Fills viii be neces-
sary in several places and, in addi-
ton, approximately Is miles of
marsh land must be negotiated.
Traffic will not be delayed or in
convenienced by the road building.
The new route, lying just south of
tho Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
tracks, win be independent of the
present Philadelphia road between
the city line and Aberdeen. The
existing road will remain open.

MORE BOOTLEG

THE statement by ]. H. Choate Jr, federal
l. alcohol control director that prohibitions
Frankenstein, the bootleg trade, still bears
down on our society must give pause to the
optimistS who thought that mere repeal would
end the problem of alcohol.
Mr. Choate finds that bootleg production
continues on so huge a scale as to constrain
Us to the conclusion that our people must now
be consuming greater quantities of spirits
than they did in pre-prohibtion days"
Illicit distillery capacity he says, exceeds
legal capacity despite seizures at an annual
rate of 1852 plants with capacity of 271,-
$4,000 gallons.
IF any progress is ever to be made in either
control or temperance, if ever the expected
revenue is to be realized, this criminal industry
must be destroyed" he writes. The federal
enforcement agencies are not to be blamed.
They have done wonders with the very limited
means at their disposal We must stop bury
ing our heads in the sand and see to it that
enforcement is brought about"
Mr.. Choate urges five steps as necessary to
end this intolerable condition. He would have
the United States greatly increase enforce
merit appropriations, inaugurate a campaign
TO arouse public opinion in behalf of drastic
enforcement and temperance, adopt reason
able means of cheapening and improving the
legal product" reduce taxes and import duties
to enable legal producers and importers to
compete, relax such forms of sales-controlS as
make 1t harder for buyers to get legal bever-
ages than the illegal stuff
Thoughtful Americans will agree. Temper
ance and orderly liquor consumption can not
be won in day. And they will not be won by
means of high taxes and tariffs, expensive
legal liquor and harsh rules for legal sales.

privilege of denouncing this newest bit of
japanese aggression?
Are you. for instance, as citizen, so in
dignant about it that you are willing to go
across the Paciic-or send your son-to
strange in the sick-bay of a laundering
cruiser, or to roast in the heat of fire room
that has been wrecked by a torpedo, or to
stop machine gun bullet somewhere along
beach 10000 miles away?
In othere words, are you indignant enough
to be ready to go to war for your indig
nation?
If you are then you probably are en-
titled to express your indignation as We
hemently as you please. But if you aren't
and it is doubtful if more than a hundred Of
American are-it's wise to reflect on the
price that we might be called on to pay for
a full expression of our indignation.
There is no danger of war in this situa-
ton if we all keep our heads and leave a So
luton of these difficulties to the slow, unemo-
tional, and unexciting process of diplomacy
macy
But we could pay very heavy price if We
went off half-cocked and spread our moral
indignation all over the Far East.

PROTECTION FOR GARBAGE

ME cocoanut oil tax tariff in the revenue
bill, which was supposed to bring about
a general increase in the prices of domestic
fats and oils apparently has caused an in
crease only in the price of inedible talloW
Cottonseed oil and lard, for example, &C
tually are selling at prices lower than were
quoted before this near-embargo on the
Philippine product was approved by congress
in violation of our solemn pledge to the Fill
Pine people. Butter prices are slightly higher,
but those who understand the fluctuations in
the produce markets give no credit for this
increase to the cocoanut oil excise.
Inedible tallow is produced principally from
the refuse of hotels restaurants, butcher shops
and homes and most of it is used in the
manufacture of soap.
Thus our mad protective tariff policy seems
to have reached a new high in absurdity-
protection for the garbage pail.

TAX CHAOS

THERE are good tidings for taxpayers in
the announcement that Treasury Secre-
tary Henry Morgenthau is preparing to attack
the problem of overlapping taxation.
We have no tax system-only chaos It
is garbled and scrambled among scores of
taxing powers. That isn't news, of course,
because it has been pointed out many times by
Mr.. Roosevelt and others.
But an effort to end the present chaos,
with the federal government leading the way
is news
Gasoline taxes are levied heller skelter; to-
bacco is taxed in duplicate and triplicate; in
comes are taxed in some states these imposts
falling on top of the federal income tax; sales
nuisance and occupational taxes are piling up
To straighten out this mess, as Mr.. Roose-
Welt has pointed out. there must be, finally,
division of the fields of taxation between the
cities. counties, states and federal government
The conference of tax officials from these
subordinate governments which Mr. Morgen-
than hopes to call this summer will not settle
this problem. But any step toward the objec-
tive of stopping the overlapping of taxes will
be good step, and an important one

VICTORY. COSTLY BUT SWEET

SINE of the axioms of modern America is
Osis that you never can win an argument
9Th the telephone company. But DR.. Alton A.
Smahl of New York has done so.
After an eight-year fight. he has gained
an official ruling that he has been over
charged on his phone BILL and the New York
Telephone Company has had to refund him
he sum of $40.
Or. Smahl carried on his argument fruit
lessly for years. Then, finally. he got pad
lock and kept the dial of his phone locked
to make absolutely sure that no but himself
would ever use it; and he kept a careful
record of every call he made, over a five
month period.
Then. checking up on his bill, he found
that he had been charged $40 too much; so
he went to court. and the other day he won
his verdict.
AS an exception to an almost universal
rule. DR.. Smahl viii doubtless appear to his
ellow-citizens as a bit of a hero.

DRAMATIC APPEAL

A 17-YEAR-OLD girl was taken to a New
York hospital suffering from a rare
blood disease. Only a number of blood trans
fusions could save her life; she did not have
the money to pay for them, and the no pital
was operating on too limited budget to buy
them for her
So an appeal was made to the public, an
nouncing that the girl must die unless VOL
unteers came forward to give her their blood.
Within few days more than four hundred
people went to the hospital and offered to
submit to transfusons.
AS a demonstration of the way in which
human sympathy will respond to an appeal
this is surprising and encouraging thing.
But it also demonstrates the way in which
human needs must be dramatized if we are to
relieve it.
There is a vast store of kindness and self
sacrifice in this world; the only trouble is
that it usually takes dramatic situation to
tap it effectively.

INDIGNATION

MORAL indignation is a worthy emotion,
IVA but its cost runs pretty high sometimes.
Before We indulge in very much of it. it's a
good idea to stop and figure out just how much
it is likely to cost us.
Here's a case in point-the present I'M
broglio over Japans new policy in China
~ The japanese have announced what
amounts to a protectorate over China. They
have declared that no other nation has right
to loan China money, send her technical in
structors, or provide her with equipment
which might be useful in time of war, if Toxic
happens to diSapprove.
Their steady encroachment on Chinese
sovereignty, begun several years ago, has come
out into the open. Unless all signs fail, the
fun subjugation of a great nation is about to
proceed, with the consequent elimination of
many American rights and privileges.
Here is development which has aroused
a good deal of Indignation in the United
States. But before we let this indignation
get too strong. We ought to look at the bal
ance sheet
How much are We willing TO pay for the.

THIS MACHINE AGE

HOW completely a modern city is at the
L mercy of its machines Drop a monkey
wrench in one comparatively minor set of
cogs and you can paralyze an entire COM
munity.
Gasoline filling station operators and gas
Oline truck drivers in Cleveland walked out
So effective was their strike that the city's
supply of gasoline was completely cut off. AS
a result, the whole city was left helpless
Private cars, delivery trucks, busses-all of
these could run until their tanks were empty,
and then they had to stop.
Because of a disagreement involving only
some 1000 or so men, a community of mil
lion people was brought to the edge of utter
paralysis.
Never before in history has mankind so
organized its communal life that such
thing could be true. Could there be a sharper
illustration Of our complete dependence on our
machines?
