Old Witch Book
 Ordered Burned
 By London Judge
(BY The Associated Press)

tBY The ASSoclated PreSS)
 LONDON, Aug. l4th-Among 80 books on various subjects recently seized by the police at a London publishers a Westminster magis- trate ordered Is to be destroyed as coming under the statute inhibiting the sale or possession of obscene books. Among them was one on witchcraft, which the counsel for the publisher said has proved of great value to students interested in the subject, and it will be serious thing if the court orders it's destruction.'
 As the court proved obdurate, the counsel added: I submit, Your Lordship, that since l have been un- able to have the sentence nolpross- ed, the execution be performed by fire, as most appropriate in the cir cumstances.' The judge smilingly gave orders to that effect.

Further Tests Are To Be Started In
 Very Rich Ground
DIAMOND DRILLERS TO INVES. TIGATE 225 AND 800 FOOT
 LEVELS AT SEALEVEL.

Additional machinery and equip- ment is being taken to the Sea-level properties of the Evis Mining com- pany for additional prospecting of the ground that is believed to con- tain one of the highest grades of ore in the Territory of Alaska, says a recent issue of the Ketchikan Daily Chronicle.
 C. B. Secrest of the Lynch Broth CTS diamond drilling firm arrived from Seattle with the equipment and left the following morning for the mine. He will be in charge of the work.
 The Sealevel ground, which is To- cated at the head of Thorne arm, was recently tunneled to tap an ore body that was located by diamond drilling and which yielded speci- mems of rich gold bearing quartz. The present work will be to deter mine the size of the ore body and to see how well it stands up in val ues at different levels.
 The immediate objectives are at the 225 foot and the 500 foot levels.
 The values located in the Sealevel property have been extraordinarily high and encouraging op the pres ent time, SecreSt asserts. The best of it, which he admits is encounter ed only rarely, is what he terms the richest unearthed in Alaska
 So far values in the rest of the ground have been high enough to warrant operations and if the tests being taken now prove up as well, machinery will be ordered to start production as soon as it can be in- stalled, he states.

A "Third Economy"

New ways of looking at the unemploy- rnent problem are rare Rexford Tugwell seems to have provided one the other day in his speech at Rochester, N. r., when he suggested that the unemployed const!- tute in themselves great national re- source which the country might as well start using. MT Tugwell's point is simple. In addition to depression unemployment, we have technological unemployment - men displaced from their jobs by improve ment in productive technique rather than by hard times.
 Even when prosperity returns, large number of these men won't be able to go back to work. They'll be with us in good times as well as bad - skilled and indus triOus workmen who want nothing under the sun except chance to work. It is MT Tugwell's idea that these men be used in what he terms a third economy"- system half way between Socialism and individualism. The government would put them to work on projects which would not be done by private enterprise, and which would be of benefit to the country as a whole.
 Such projects would include the Civilian Conservation Corps, gigantic slunl- clearance program, checking of soil eroS- ion, provision of sanitary and recreationai facilities that are now lacking, develop ment of reclamation works, and possibly some large-scale scheme for resettlement 01 the underprivileged All this is worth Thinking about, because it reverses our ordinary attitude toward unemployment. We look on it as a sad and expensive re- sponsibility; this plan would have us see it as great opportunity.
 @a This country is enormous and 1t Is more richly blessed by nature than any similar place on earth. It can be turned into veri- table l1lrden spot, where human life can be richer and freer than anything we have yet dreamed of. The possibilities are here; all we need do is exploit them. And that is just another way of saying that there is work enough in America to keep us all busy for generations to come. All we need do is go after it.
 Until every American family occupies modern, up-to-date home, until every region is served by broad, smooth high ways, until every river has been harnessed and controlled and every farming region has been freed from threat of flood and wind, until our marvellous productive plant has given an abundance of necessi- ties to every citizen until that day comes, it is silly for us to say that there is no wnrk for the jobless. MT Tugwell's idea calls our attention to this fact. The work is waiting to be done, and we have millions oi men who ask nothing but the chance to do it. Seen in this way, unemployment
 X challenge and an opportunity.

Contrast In Liners

Within recent weeks two of the most famous ocean liners of modern times have headed for the bOneyard. It was announced not long ago that the Leviathan, after a valiant but unsuccessful struggle to get out of the red ink column, would be turned over to the Navy Department for break ing up; and now it is reported from Lon- don that the famous Mauretania will pres ently be broken up at Rosyth, Scotland.
 Of these two giant liners, the Mature tania has certainly had the greater share of luck For 27 years she has been one of the acknowledged queens of the sea. Until the Germans sent out their new express liners, she held the mythical "blue ribbon for speed.
 The Leviathan, on the other hand, was born under an unlucky star. Interned in New York in 1914, she lay idle until used as troop ship. After the war she was put into passenger service, but she never paid her way. In all her peace-time serv- ice she was white elephant. And now both of these ships are on the way out. The roster of Atlantic steamers won't seem the same without either the Mature tania or the Leviathan.

Make It Come True

1t was almost like dream come true to cad in the Waterbury Democrat recently that when Uncle Sam dips his hand into the relief box and doles out millions for every state in the Union Waterbury will be taken care of to the extent of well over $1,000,000. Although city officials have not announced definite program to which any such sum as this might be applied, the news account stressed the fact that the city would finish it's sewer project, long since started.
 To us that was really the most enheart- ening news of the entire account, save for the fact that the expenditures of this vast sum on diverse projects was to mean work for men on the relief lists. Water bury with it's sewage program completed would be indeed in an enviable position. It would mean that the city for the first time had ceased to make an open cesspool of the Naugatuck river, and was using the most advanced and scientific methods of disposing of domestic sewage.
 Waterbury has done rather we'll in building up to the point where it is pre- pared to put a disposal plant into opera tion. It has spent hundreds of thousands of dollars in so doing. Right now it would probably take the major share of $1,000,- 900 to make such system really effective in the city, We would be obliged to build a trunk line sewer up the Mad river; con- meet all laterals in the eastern and southern ends of the city to this; and then in turn divert this trunk line into the dis posal plant, which remains to be con- structed.
 All that is possible if Uncle Sam re- leases the purse strings to the extent re- ported by relief officials and our city off cers only say the word. They may have other ideas of how the money should be spent in Waterbury, but certainly if the city is ever to join other communities in ending pollution of our natural water ways, the beginning, so nObly carried .out, must not die from lack of effort to finish
