No Parking in an Emergency.

The Commissioners fiat ban on au
tomobile parking in a large area OF
central downtown Washington dur
ing the coming Shrine convention is
the most drastic order Of the sort
ever issued because 1t affects more
people There are many more auto
mobiles in oaily use now than in
1923, when the Shriners were here
last. The sufferers will be chiefly those
who make 1t the practice to ride to
work and park their cars most OF
the day. The order will not bring a
particularly widespread effect among
the all-night parkers or those who
use the streets as permanent garage,
although some of these will be brought
under The ban in apartment house
areas.
But with the great influx of visitors,
the number of parades and ceremo-
MES and the increased pedestrian and
automobile traffic during the week
of the convention. the Commissioners
could hardly take less dratic action.
Their order is based on an emergency
of which there can be little doubt.
No-parking areas and limited
parking areas have been extended
gradually during the past and they
will continue to be extended as traffic
conditions become more acute. The
no-parking period of the Shrine con-
vention will afford an opportunity,
that has not been available for many
years, to observe the effect of such a
ban on automobile and pedestrian
traffic. 1t is question how long the
all-day parkers are going to be per
mitted to utilize the Ellipse and other
park drives south of Pennsylvania ave-
nue. as daytime garages; and if the
week of trial during the Shrine con-
vention is successful, the permanent
ban on parking in certain areas near
public buildings will probably be
fastened
The Commissioners order is accom-
panied by the fixing of new and
higher penalties for violation of the
no-parking regulations. Some in
creases in the penalties may be neces-
sary, but if the public generally un-
derStands that the Commissioners
and the police really intend to enforce
the order, the amount of penalty for
violation does not make a great deal
of difference. The maximum punish
ment of possible thirty days in Jail
for violating parking regulation may
not be cruel and inhuman' punish
ment under the law. but that is how
it would be generally regarded if such
a penalty we're ever exacted

The 1ntolerable Dump Nuisance

MuHuay HlBIlI the ClLlLeHS OI ATllng-
ton County, Va, will assemble In mass
meeting to discuss the subject of the
privately operated public dumps in
that area which have for q long time
constituted an intolerable nuisance.
There are two Of these places, where
refuse Of all kinds is deposited and
some OF 1t is burned. befouling the
atmosphere and menacing health.
Three years ago the County Board
adopted an ordinance in prohibition
of the maintenance of these dumps
and instructed the prosecuting attor-
ney to proceed against the operators.
The validity of the ordinance was
attacked in court and now the higher
court has upheld it. A proposal to
issue another mandate against the
Gumps has been made and at the
meeting on Monday it will be resisted
by those who desire the abatement Of
this nuisance. on the ground that it
will lead to further legal maneuvers,
thus adding to the delay.
The maintenance of these places Is
a disgrace to the National Capital as
we'll as the local community and a
menace to the health of the inhabit-
ants of this area. They are an offense
to the senses. They are at times a
danger to the users of the highways,
and they add to the risks of aviators
at the airport. From every point of
view they are an intolerable nuisance,
justified only because of the lack OF
proper facilities for the disposal of the
waste material of the Capital and the
lack of market for metal junk. That
justification. however, does not weigh
against the consideration of the public
health or the hideous blot upon the
landscape at the gates Of the Capital.
In these circumstances, with the
county ordinance upheld as valid by
the State appellate court, there is no
justification and no occasion for delay
in its enforcement. despite the infiu-
ences that may be brought to bear to
prevent action The citizens of Ar
lington County should insist upon that
! action without further delay.

The Song Lasts Forever.

Garments will be torn, gems and
gold will be destroyed; the fame which
song brings will last forever" Thus
wrote Ovid, the Roman poet, centu-
ries ago. And it is true today as al
ways. It's truth has just been reaf-
hrmed in the death of a penniless man
In New York, James w. Blake, who
forty-one years ago wrote the words
for a song composed by Charles B.
Lawlor, a vaudeville actor, song that
has been sung by millions, that be-
came the veritable anthem" of a
presidential campaign. 1t was "The
Sidewalks of New York" Blake was
a clerk in hat store when his friend
Lawlor entered one day humming a
melody which had just come to him.
perhaps a fragment of memory or a
composite of some other tunes that
he had sung on the stage. He asked
Blake to write some words for it as
he had done before on other occasions,
and before the day was over Blake
In his moments of leisure between
calls of customers scribbled down some
lines that expressed his boyhood men,
cries of the city of his birth. Lawlor
sang it on the stage and it became
an immediate success, one of the
greatest hits ever written. Dance Or
chestras and bands played it all over
the country. Blake and Lawlor sold
their song outright tota publisher for

Turkey and the Dardanelles.

During the seven or eight years
which have elapsed since Turkey ne
gotiated the Lausanne treaty to re-
place the peace treaty of Sevres i'm
posed upon her by the victorious allies,
the republic SO effectively ruled by
Kemal Ataturk has concerned itself
primarily with internal developments.
1t has provoked no international
problems of the caliber which in pre-
war days caused the Ottoman empire
to be perpetual cause of anxiety to
Europe. Now, all of a sudden, Turkey
again casts its shadow across the Old
World, threatening complications de-
signed to break up new alignments
for maintenance of peace.
Hints that Turkey is preparing to
fortify the Dardanelles in disregard
of the prohibitions of the treaty of
Lausanne have caused serious alarm
in Great Britain and France. Sug-
gestions of such intentions were re-
Gently dropped at Geneva by Turkish
Foreign Minister Aras, who happened
to be presiding over the League Coun-
Gil meeting which condemned Ger
many's defiance of the Versailles mill
tary clauses. Perhaps it was the
Reichs violation of its peace pact that
spurred the Turks to follow suit with
reference to the Lausanne provision
covering the Dardanelles.
The feature of M. Aras' statement
that arouses the particular anxiety
of the British and the French is that
it raises the question of a secret
Russo-Turkish agreement hostile to
the interests of the western powers.
They do not welcome the closing of
the Dardanelles by means of modern
Notifications, because it would menace
the security of their important oil
resources in Mesopotamia and Ru-
mania. Turkey relinquished control
of valuable oil deposits in signing the
treaty of Lausanne. Her desire to
secure amends for the damage thus
sustained is well known. The threat
ened fortifying of the Dardanelles may
be the opening gun in Kemal Alta
turks campaign to retrieve Turkeys
lost oil provinces.
Britain and France might be able
to deal with Turkey alone, either mill
tarily or automatically, but a Turkey
secretly allied with Soviet Russia for
joint control of oil in the Near East
conjures up a situation of immeas-
urably greater gravity, especially at a
moment when France and Russia have
just concluded a new military alliance
as part and parcel of general Euro
pean scheme for p zee and security.

Are depressionS healthy?
Statistics for the population of the
United States as a whole show little
change in sickness or death rates
during the past five years. This some
what paradoxical showing, however, Is
changed radically when the popula-
ton is broken up into economic
groups-as in a survey Of II 600 wage
earning families just reported by the
Public Health Service.
Tremendous changes in economic
status and standard of living took
place among these families during the
depression. Median income dropped
from 81 $50 in 1929 to $870 IN 1882.
In II per cent of the families the
chief wage Garner was jobless IN 1882
and in 10 per cent there we're no wage
earners. Twenty per cent of all the
families were on relief
Disabling illness was found to be 48
per cent higher among families hav-
ing no employed wage earners than
in families having full-time workers.
The group of families that had
dropped from fairly comfortable cir
cumstances to relief rolls during the
depression showed a rate of disabling
illness 73 per cent higher than that
of their more fortunate neighbors
who had remained in the comfortable
class during the depression period.
Hence the Public Health Service
concludes that depressions are decid-
edly unhealthy for their actual VIC
tins. The raw figures, however. do
not tell the whole story. 1t is held
! .hly probable. although it cannot
tally be proven, that the unem-
ployed consisted, by and large. of a
selected group in which sickness and
dee III rates would be higher at any
time. Those most frequently i'll in
normal times were among the first to
lose their jobs and among the last to
regain them.
This selective process. however. does
not account for the whole difference,
the Public Health Service statiSticians
believe. The very group whose normal
health Is least able to stand undue
hardship was the one which suffered
most.
