STATE POLICE FORCE

CIXTY-SIX new members have been named
Oto the State Police force by Donald F.
Silver. State Safety Director, after the con-
clusion of the state police school held here.
The appointment Of the &c men adds much
nan-power to the force and it is to be hoped
that Indiana's dream of a great. highly eflci-
ent State Police department is being pushed to
completion.
What every one ofNthe new policemen
should know is that politics and police work
can not possibly mix and that the only way
they can serve their state is by enforcing the
laws for everybody and seeing that Indiana
has no favored few"

NATION SHOULD FOLLOW
TRADE CHANNELS, HE SAYS
BY Raymond Henry Stone

BY Raymond Henry Stone
The horse is a possible symbol for
a party. Its sound sense is well
known. The grand old horse would
be a relief from either the elephant
or the donkey. The idea in the
party would not be reform but the
actual using of what we have as
individuals, communities, and as a
nation. The land between the Rock
les and the Alleghenies would be the
main object of attention.
The Mississippi Basin would be
developed for the benefit of the
whole country. Waterways would
be used to their capacity and i'm
proved for the sake of the whole
nation in trading with the whole
world. Railroads would be made
use of for domestic trade and as
feeders to the Mississippi and the
Great Lakes. New York would be
our financial contact with the world
money markets.
Chicago and New Orleans would
be our main import and export har-
bors (the former for trade with Eu-
rope and Africa while the latter

Panama Canal for Japan, China
and Russia: The Atlantic and Pa

trade to South America and handle
faster shipments to Europe and the
Orient. In a nutshell, we would

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
PIGS is PIGS

THE Republicans, scratching about for
i issues have found one that comedies with
what looks like packers propaganda from Chi
cago. 1t is designed to get the housewife vote.
It's pigs-the ghosts of some six and a third
million shoats and scws "powed under" by
cruel Triple A in the fall of 1893.
Pork is high, say the critics Why? Because
of pig shortage due to the criminal slaugh-
ter of the porcine innocents.
Unfortunately. it isn't so simple.
Primarily the pork shortage is due to the
last years drought. That calamity reduced
the 1884 corn crop by nearly one billion BUSH
els. BY taking the surplus baby and mamma
pigs out of circulation practically all of the
disable pork was fed tp relief families or turned
into fertilizer the governments program not
only prevented a disastrous oversupply but
acted as a stabilizer by saving for the drought
year some 10 million bushels of corn that the
pigs would have consumed if they had lived.
Even after the reduction was made, the 1884
slaughter was So million head, or slightly less
than in either 1888 Or 1882. 1t was equal to
that of 1925, when we exported 81 per cent of
our pork and 80 per cent Of our lard Last year
We exported 1.8 per cent Of our pork and oil
per cent of our lard.
If the packers and professors are spreading
this fearful story of the lost pig generation
one wonders at their logic How can they
claim in their hundreds Of recovery suits that
they have borne the burden of Triple A. and at
the same time weep for the housewives who
must bear it?
We don't like to see food DESTROYED. But
When as in this case it helps to restore pur-
chasing power to farmers, it is less of an eco
nomic sin. At any rate, pigs is pigs and not
much of campaign issue.

TUESDAY. AUG. % 1885.
DECLARE NEUTRALITY NOW.

L VERY one agrees there is danger Of
II Italian Ethiopian war and Of World
War growing out Of it. Every one agrees tht
We should stay ont. Every one agrees that our
neutrality and munitions policies will deter
mine largely whether We stay out or get
dragged in. If there is asgeneral war.
But almost every one has different idea
about an effective policy. That IS why there
has been all Of the atlk about this subject and
no action
With Congress winding up to go home only
few days are left in which to pass the much
needed neutrality and munitions law. The
old abb that We must investigate before we
act. no longer holds. Congressional commit
tees have been investigating for many months.
While they may not have reached the point
Of complete and final wisdom, they know
enough about the subject to provide minimum
end temporary safeguards to meet the present
acute danger.
Unfortunately the Administration can not
make up its mind that quick and incomplete
legislation is better than none in this emer-
gency. It is tangled in State Department red
tape and the traditional desire of Presidents
10 nave a 4ltt manu- III 4DAEl6AA d4Ad4Ao- 4DN1
Just how embarrassing and expensive this ex-
ecutive freedom may be is proved by the Lam
sing-to- Wilson letter which Senators Clark
and I'VE have uncovered as prod to congress
sional action now. That letter of 1915 led to
reversal of the Wilsonan policy of discourage
ing loans to belligerents, and the new policy
OF making America the allied banker in turn
led America into the World War partly to
protect war investments.
The point is that neutrality to be neutral
ity must be declared as basic policy in advance
of hostilities otherwise it has inevitable parti-
san results and is resented by one of the bel
Igerents as such. For instance. a general arms
embargo would not weaken Italy, but would
seriously njure unprepared Ethiopia. On the
other hand. an arms and credit embargo
against Italy alone would be in effect par
tcipation in the war on Ethiopias side.
The only reason for leaving the embargo
and neutrality power discretionary with the
President is to permit discrimination against
an aggressor. That was intelligent some years
ago before the international peace machinery
had been almost completely destroyed by Japan
and Germany But it is not practicable now
not unless we are ready to back up our eco
nomic weapons with American troops
Strict neutrality is one thing Joint inter-
national action against an aggreSsor is the
opposite thing. For better or for worse, the
American people now favor strict neutrality
in foreign wars
Neutrality, as history shows is hard to
maintain. Once America gets stake in a for
,Va+
to be drawn in as we were in 1917. There is no
certain escape from this danger. But we at
least can take obvious precautions.
While postponing the controversial question
of naturalization of the munitions industry,
Congress this week should pass a neutrality
law banning American travel on belligerent
ships and prohibiting munitions sales and all
loans or credits to belligerents.

CITY MAN VS.. FARMER
is START OF TROUBLE
By Unknown Citizen

BY Unknown Citizen
Soft-livered men dodge facts.
But, the facts still exist. The old
bulwark of American society was
the farm The titles to farms have
become clouded by contracts to con-
trail production. This is a step in
the direction of peasantry. For, no.
where in history is it recorded that
a sovereign power relinquishes VOL
UNFAIRLY any powers granted to it.
The American farmer has been
duped by playing on his feeling that
he is an underdog. For few pieces
of money he has been led into a
trap. If it be true that men on the
farms in America have degenerated
into Weaklings their names will be
anathema to any child yet unborn
For, the city man is dependent on
farm products but not upon any
group of individual producers of
those products. If men in the past
got excited about tax on a cup Of
tea, it is easy to imagine what city
father will feel in his breast toward
Tax on potatoes ana meat.
The money changers regulations
have been dry-cleaned already, but
when the public demand for airing
the regulations of those farmers
who seek easy money becomes loud
and strong, it will be like the roar
ing of bull. Fiends from hell
could not concoct a more deadly
potion than to set farmer and city
cweller at. odds with each other.
Men who will consent to such Chi
canery are friends of neither. For,
no matter how you dress, house, or
educate man he is still part an
iraal. No animal responds to teasing
by denying food except with fierce
ness of disposition.

Production Regulation Needed

served will inevitably throw out of
gear the whole industrial process.
When so billion dollars in wages,
salaries and other expenditures
produced go billion dollars worth
of wealth in 1929, it stands to rea-
son that 80 billions worth could
not be sold, added to the sur
pulses of previous years the pro-
ducerS did not consume and the
production process being stunted,
threw out of work several millions
of people.
Their wages were discontinued
while pay of those who were lucky
enough to remain at work was
slashed. This resulted in an in
evitable decline in the market
with compounded rapidity, cul-
minating into the mess we're in.
A redistribution of wealth as
advocated by Huey Long would
be, from a sound economic point
of view, a step backward. 1t
would, like the Sherman and
Clayton antitrust laws, stagnate
sound economic progress.
The Roosevelt regulations will
have the same effect, preserving
the status quo and at the same
time expecting opposite interests
to cooperate.
With the immortal Lincoln,
would say, "A house divided
against itself can not stand"
Captialistic anarchism had it's
day The next step in social evo-
luton is collectivism and demo-
cratic management of all indus
try, transportation and communi-
cations facilities, government own
ership of natural resources.
Regulation of production &C
cording to the law of supply and
demand, not by cutting down the
production but by raising the
standard of living, thereby Great
ing a market, would go a long
way toward solving this problem
and at the same time make this
world q better place in which to
live.

SUGGESTS ELIMINATION OF
MERIDIAN-ST HAZARDS

BY a Times Reader
1t seems to the writer that an
obvious need for relieving traffic
hazards at the intersection of Me-
ridlan and 16th-sts should have
caught the attention Of the traffic
officers by this time.
The curb service offered by a
business place on a corner of this
intersection is no doubt very handy
to many motorists who stop every
night
However, the resulting double
and triple parking at the crossing of
these two busy streets has almost
been the cause of two accidents that
the writer knows of in the last week
This condition does not appear
only at this particular place in the
city. There are others. Can't such
hazards be eliminated to a more
thorough degree?

In answer to Garter Glass
Democrat" permit me to ask the
gentleman to reason with me
about the meaning of some fun
damental economic laws.
For example, industry to keep
in working order not only has to
supply its own raw materials. 1t
also has to supply itself with
market for its finished product.
The lack of either stagnates the
process of production.
When by the ending OF the
World War, the belligerent coun-
tries stopped buying their supplies
from the American market, it soon
eliminated into the depression of
1921-1922. The surplus capital
which previously was invested in
industries supplying the foreign
market now found a place in new
domestic industries. The automo-
bile manufacturing had advanced
with leaps and bounds, which be-
sides needing oil and gas, required
highways and the development
of national and state parks, a new
source of income for millions Of
people.
The migration to the cities re-
quired more homes, public build
ings and street development. After
adjusting and mutation of both
capital and labor as described
above and related industries, ca
capacity having vastly increased
during the World War period, had
soon far ouhsrown the demands of
the American market and for
eign countries, either too poor to
buy or by way of protective i'm
port duties, were sure to keep
out our products.

tariff policy developing ten
dency to production monopoly and
price control, defeating thereby
its very purpose, the preservation
of the home market.
Mass production requires mass
consumption to keep industry in
working order.

Maccarone also discussed Corinna S

wife had the girl as their guest at
meals in their home on New York

number of years. She talked over her
approaching marriage with the couple
and seemed extremely happy about
the future.

months ago and was one of Tears
best friends. He assisted with the

Fancy interpreters are jumping to
the conclusion that the six-to-three
rice order hints at new division in
side the court. The lineup disclosed
Chief Justice Hughes and Justice
Roberts in the company of the four
so-called conservative justices. leav-
ing the three so-called liberals on the
short end Of the bench.
Split on Technically.
1t is probably fair but haphazard
guess to prophesy a six-to-three de-
cision against much pending New Deal
legislation, but not because of the rice
decision. The split in the court there
was not on the Constitution but on the
technical question of whether the rice
millers should pay their tax TO the
Government before the courts decide
their suits. All the lower courts have
impounded processing taxes. The lower
court in the rice case refused to. The
Supreme Court merely applied the
general rule to the rice growers.
But in doing it, the court ignored a
provision of the A. A. A. act requiring
processing tax payers to pay first and
sue later for recovery. To that extent,
the court held provision of the A. A.
A act temporarily invalid until it could
reach a final decision.
More than a suspicion exists that
the New Deal lawyers are doing little
to hasten decisions by the Supreme
Court in pending cases. In fact. there
seems to be studied tendency among
them to move deliberately until Con-
gress reconvenes.
Whether delay is their purpose,
1t is, at least, the result OF their
actions. No decisions DiI be ready
in any important Neto Deal case
until after Congress assemblies in
January.
The idea apparently is that, Utth
Congress at hand, substitute legts-
lutton can be pushed through In q
hurry to meet court rulings.
