McNary pointed out that such
a stand would kill two birds with
n stone:
First, Republicans would put
the Administration in the posi-
ton of being niggardly in it's
treatment of the INDECENT aged.
Second, Republican members
opposed to the Townsend plan but
from districts where pressure for
it is strong, could record them
selves as being for an old-age
pension program more generous
than the Administrations.

WASHINGTON, April 15-Chalk up another score for Senate Re-
w publican Floor Leader Charley McNary.
He was behind the House Republicans move to nberaize the old
age pension feature of the Social Security bill. The House minority
party had held several caucuSeS in an effort to agree regarding the bill
but had got nowhere.
Some of the leaders privately consulted McNary, who advised them
to call the Democratic bill too parsimonious and demand that it's SIS
a month provision be boosted to $5.

Stonewall's Last Fight

If there are ghosts about, great collec- tion of them should be in evidence In the famous old wilderness" section of Virginia one day this spring. On May 2 cadets ot the Virginia Military institute and U. s. marines from the Quantico base will unite to commemorate one of the most famous military maneuvers ever accom- plished - the flank march by which Stonewall Jackson crumpled the right wing of the Union army at the battle ot Charlottesville in 1862 Cadets and marines will fight sham battle; and an obscure wilderness road-remade recently by CCC workers, and named Jackson Trair' - will feel once more the thud of tramping feet as the young men duplicate the march which climaxed the great Stonewall's military career.
 We are a long way from the Civil War, now, and events with which every school boy used to be familiar have become more cellorville is one of them, and it is worth looking at for a moment or two. The northern army was beginning another "On to Richmond" push that spring of 1862. Hooker, the Union general, had large, battle-tested army, and he was sliding It around to the left of Lees army, trying to get between the southern general and the Confederate capital. Lee was prodiglous- ly outnumbered, and the maneuver put him in perilous spot.
 Winding back through the forests was an old, little-used road not shown on most maps = the Plank road, as it was called, leading toward the Confederate left and rear. Lee and Jackson, seated on cracker boxes by camp fire - that was before generals lived in secluded state, attended by innumerable staff officers saw in that road the key to the battle.
 So they divided the army, outnumbered as it was. Lee, with ridiculously made quate segment of it, remained in front of Hooker and persuaded that officer that the whole Confederate army was facing him; Jackson, with the pick of the army, followed the Plank road silently, emerged on Rockers rear at dusk, and launched smashing attack which crumpled up the northern army and sent it back in full retreat. It was Jackson's last fight. In the dark and confusion his own men fired his death.
 Now it is this event which this springs sham battle will commemorate, and it is this old Plank road which the CCC boys have put into shape. President Roosevelt has been invited to attend, and the affair ought to be well worth watching. It marks one of the great moments in American history.

Solar Heaters

Quite lot of people in California and Arizona are said to be using solar heaters to provide their hot water supply. They include rural dwellers, dairymen, -manu lecturers and home owners. Some of the heaters are homemade, The best types of these are said to develop adequate amounts of hot water of from 120 to 180 degrees Fahrenheit At the agricultural college of the University of California where exper- iments are being conducted to improve the solar heater, temperatures of 28O degrees or higher have been obtained. One enthu- siast raises oil to 500 degress and cooks with it.
 The solar heater gets it's power directly from the sun. The original homemade type was rather crude. It consisted chief ly of system of pipes, usually painted black and perhaps under glass, placed on roof where it would get the maximum amount of sunlight. Heaters now in use have many improvements over the first ones. Many of them are so we'll insulated against loss of heat at night or during cloudy weather that the hot water supply is nearly constant regardless of temporary bad weather. The heaters are most suc- cessful however, in localities which aver age at least six hours of sunshine day.
 Auxiliary oil, gas or electric heaters can be connected for use when the sun does not shine. In fact, the agricultural experi- ment station is working on device which will automatically turn on the auxiliary system when the temperature in the tank fails. This should not be difficult. One wonders why this use of the suns heat is confined to those two states

More Stage Shows

How many years ago - or was it only months ] were people mourning the commercial theater as dead? It had suc- cumbed to the superior attractions, not to mention lower admission charges, of the motion picture, they said. Voices raised in explanation of it as only temporary eclipse received little attention, but their vindication seems to be at hand.
 It is reported now that there are not enough theaters in New York to house all the plays clamoring for production, that some of the legitimate theaters which were converted to movie or burlesque houses may soon go back to their first purpose. Theaters long dark are again gay with lights. It is surprising shift in public taste or enthusiasm or spending ability. If the thing spreads out beyond Broadway and reaches the many smaller cities where once-busy theaters are now closed or showing movies, it will be fine thing for the public generally.
 Two factors are important, however, in bringing about such revival. First, the plays themselves will have to be less re- stricted to Broadway culture. Second, seat prices will have to be adjusted so that those people may go who like good show but can't afford more than the price of two or three movies for single per- formance.

City Traffic Safer

It is hard to believe but big cities are the safest places for driving. More motor accidents occur in the wide-open spaces. This conclusion comes from study made by the American Automobile Association. The traffic death rate last year in 86 principal cities was one-third lower than the rate for the country as whole. More over, nearly third of the cities reported a decrease in their traffic death rate dur ing the year, while the death rate in the smaller towns, and the open country was rising.
 This peculiar situation calls for analysis. There are, of course, more traffic risks in the city than in the country, more in the metropolis than in the small town But in the crowded places people take those risks more seriously. They install frequent traf- fic lights and other controls, and they drive more cautiously. In rural areas there is less police control and less self control. Drivers relax their vigilance and speed up. Hence more casualties to them- selves and to others. As result, there may have to be some revision of reason able and proper" speeds in the country.

Engineers Self-Survey

When this era is over, there is going to be a great mass of information about the people who have gone through it. If the nation ever gets around to real social and economic planning, it will have plenty of data to base it on.' For example, there is the survey of their own profession which is about to be made by engineers. It is said to be the first study of the sort, although the engineering profession has made many other surveys of other types.
 The purpose of the present survey is to determine the factors which contribute to unemployment and compensation in the engineering profession, the degree of un- employment and sources of re-employ- ment, the influence of education and the relationship of engineering to other pro- fessions. The federal bureau of labor sta tistics will analyze the data gathered in this way and will publish it's report as federal document.
 A survey can be great waste of effort, time and ink, or it can be useful assem- bling of related but previously morgan ized facts. In the latter case the survey becomes valuable reference document and, possibly, the basis for changing and improving certain bad condition or situ ation. The engineers survey of them selves ought to be such a piece of work.

quire. The movie is presented in stin- ulating, unnatural environment, with many strangers as we'll as much strange ness, with a speed not adapted to little folks. It is, therefore, too exciting to be wholesome.
 Children under eight are still hard at work adjusting themselves to their nor maj environment, learning to read or be- ing read to, doing simple operations with their own hands and tools. The movie is too swift and too complex for them. Fur thermore, it is sad abuse of grown-ups' power to hurry these youngsters so that they become blase about the theater before they are old enough to enjoy and appre- ciate it.

No Movies For Very Young

Parents Magazine, issuing Movie
 Guide, divides motion pictures into three groups - for adults over IS, for. young folks from F to IS, and for children be- tween eight and 12. What of the little children? some one asks Are there no pictures for them? The Movie Guide ex- plains that there are not. A child under eight years of age should not attend motion picture performances regularly.
 This is not because the picture itself may be harmful. It is because young child should not be subjected to the nerv- ous stimulation of such entertainment. A Mother Goose story in book and one shown as motion picture are quite diff ferent. The former is taken quietly at home in familiar surroundings, as slowly as the child mind and tenperament re-

SAINT JOSEPH COLLEGE
 (Hartford Times)

With work about to begin on the construction of the first of eight buildings, Saint Joseph college, Ca tholic institution of higher educa- iton for young women, will soon take visible form. Enough of the name of It's predecessor, Mt. Saint Joseph academy, has been retained to indicate its development from that institution.
 The new college represents a confident trust in the future and an appropriate sense of the need for its usefulness, on the part of its sponsors. In addition to the usual liberal arts subjects, 1t is proposed to offer courses in social service, health, business. science, making cS l education.
 Although situated in West Hart ford, the new college may be coun- ted as an addition to the oher cul- tural institutions of Hartford. X preliminary circular rightly refers to the seclusion which it's location affords for study and campus life and to It's ready access to metru- politan Hartford with it's cultural and social advantages" Among its beneficiaries will be this area and all other communities to which it's influence in time may reach. Success Is due the courage and faith that stand behind thls educational undertaking.
