Blood Will Tell.
(New York Times.)

l tNeW 4Ork IlneSJ ] A drunkard may reel along on his feet, an un pleasant but harmless object But when he reels on pneumatic tires behind the steering wheel of high speed he is a public menace Arrest him and the question of his condition comes up before the court. Tests demanded by his counsel The police and the interne of the public hospital where he may have been taken admit that none has been made As a result suspensions of sentence and dismissals of complaints more numerous than convictions. The situation is serious because the statistical evidence indicates plainly that by far the greater number of automobile accidents must be attributed to the recklessness that comes from in- toxcation.
 Why is this problem not handled in the sensible European fashion? Oslo Hamburg and Berlin point the way Tn these cities a surgeon steps up to the accused, bricks the lobe of his ear and with draws a few drops of blood which are analysed for their alcoholic content in accordance with technique developed by Professor Widmark of the University of Lund and simplified by Dr. Klaus Hansen of Oslo There is no room for argument If the amount of blood surpasses certain critical value, the accused is drunk. How good the test is may be gathered from these excerpts from a table prepared by Dr. Walter L. Miles:
 04O mg. pp cc.: You don't think I'm
 drunk, do you? Why, haven't taken any
 thing yet"
 05O m per cc.: Can lick anybody in the
 country" Observable difficulty in lighting
 match)
 07O mg per cc: Amused at the seeming
 perversity of things Upsets chair rising 100 m. per Staggers perceptibly Sings
 loudly. Complains that others don't keep
 on their side of the road.
 200 mg. per Can't recall with whom
 he spent the evening.
 400 mg. per cc.: Deep anesthesia that
 may be fatal.
 Professor C. Hegler of St. Georges Hospital Hamburg, where the drunken drivers of that city taken to be tested writes enthusiastically of the new procedure in the Deutsche Medizinische Woch- enschrift He wonders how the police man. aged to secure convictions without it. and finds it indispensable in deciding not only doubtful of ntoxication but cratic behavior caused by brain shocks and other seizures Hansen saved driver in Oslo whose blood showed scarcely a trace of alcohol Reckless driving while intoxi- cated," charged the police. Nonsense" retored Hansen after test, just nervous" Blood analysis is both shield and probe. It protects the who may be sober but who drives carelessly enough to merit fine, yet damns him who is actually intoxicated.

In Behalf of Thrift.
(New York World-'relegram.) )


 A wise government helps the people help them- selves. The House foolish to cut from the Presidents Social Security bill one of that ures greatest incentives to individual thrift-the Government sale of voluntary small annuities.
 The original bill, drawn by the Presidents experts, contained provision for Government sale of old age annutes of not more than $100 a month. This provision urged both by the Presidents committee on economic security and his advisory council.
 As the Omnibus Security bill emerged from the House it's compulsory old age annuity provision not to be confused with voluntary annuities-cov- cred only about 27000000 of the 4800000O Amer jeans engaged in gainful occupations. Farmers and their hired hands, domestics, employees of charit- able religious and educational institutions Govern ment workers. casuals and seamen are left out in the cold. So are the self-employed small business men, and professional workers with. salaries of more than S3000 year.
 To the extent these 21 100000 unprotected Amer jeans encouraged to lay aside savings for their old age through purchase of annuites, industry and government would be freed of responsibility for their security.
 The Senate should restore this lost provision of the Social Security bill The Governments spend ing of billions should not blind it to the fact that there is substitute for thrift among the people.

Originally known as Decoration Day, day set apart to decorate the of soldiers and sailors who fell in the Union during the Civil War, May 3O in recent years has become to be known generally as Memorial Day, time to pay honor to those who gave their lives in all in services of their country
 Tomorrow the nation will again lay aside the routine of business affairs and pause in tribute to the hero dead On the final resting place of those who died in their countrys cause will be placed the momentoes of the living who are carrying on not unmindful that the sacrifices were made for that purpose
 This Memorial Day, like all the others, will be a cruel day for it revives memories. It opens those heart wounds caused by death though perhaps they not painful time, the great healer per forms its work. But it is day of universal mourning and, though dark as it seems to many it probably of the best things that can happen to us as a people. Can there be any greater force in behalf of peace and against future conflict than the tragedy of the past? Every flower that is placed in memory tomorrow will carry the fervent prayer of the thoughtful that armed struggle does not come again. The tender sentiment of Memorial Day observance builds ever a potent force against insane slaughter and in the face of the constant clash of arms that is heard throughout the world becomes a scbering factor in the of peace.
 Ever applicable the words of the great Lincoln;
 With malice toward none, with charity
 for all, with frmness in the right God gives us to see the right let strive
 to finish the work in, to bind up
 the nation wounds, to for him who
 shall have borne the battle and for his
 widow and his orphan, to do all which may
 achieve and cherish just and lasting peace
 among ourselves and with all nations.

But the ascending air is puffy, so

In 1884, as usual, the most de-
structive hailstorms occurred in
June, July and August. Florida's
hail season, however, began in Feb
ruary. By April the storms had
spread to Oklahoma. Arkansas, and
South Carolina. In May they were
breaking out in Wisconsin. The ex-
tent of damage from hail in any one
year can never be determined def
nitely. Estimates by the weather
bureau, mostly from the outstand-
ing storms, show a loss In 1884 OF
nearly $4,000, 000-the heaviest since
1890, when it was S10,000,000.

HAIL THREAT TO
CROPS, EVEN IN
TIME OF DROUTH

Neither drouth nor extreme heat
stops hail storms. In 1854 time
of record-breaking dryness and high
temperatures-hail damage to crops
was as widespread and almost as
severe as usual, according to the
weather bureau. All the way from
New York to California and from
Florida to Montana hail beat into
the ground crops that had escaped
the drouth.
Hail, the coming of which cannot
now be predicted, is a menace that
hangs over all crops east Of the

promising field to a total loss in a
