The three point program an- nuOnced by the Columbia Broadcasting System this week is deserving of high praise, for it marks the beginning of a :, trend toward more cOnsidera- tiOn for the listener lCOnl- Inercial announcements, start- ing July 3Oth, will be limited both in time and in content on CBS, making by far the most important point . There seems little doubt but that other networks will follow Col umhia's lead COmmer- ciais have their place, else we would have no radio entertain- ment' of any worth, since spon- sOrs foot the bills, but they can be handled more intelligcntly and limited in their content t. The day of the absurd and prepOsterous claims often heard in network advertising should have been over long before now .. I've are glad to see that it is on the way out.

The job of studio pianist is no easy one; in fact, it's one involving lots of labor and patience as well as a maximum of skill 5. It's a telling assignment, carrying with it lots of strain .. Which is what makes even more unusual the case of Romeo J. Delfino, studio pianist at WATR =. Romeo has been playing for years, but is still youthful Yet on the air he sounds as well and as poised as any veteran artist of the keyboard, and it is surprising, after hearing him, to see him in person and mo- tice his youth Romeo's been doing a grand job, and can step up and take big bow.

OWNERSHIP

NEW YORK. Nov. / (U.SO.
Indicating Government ownership
of radio may come unless cultural
programs are increased, Commits
sioner George Henry Payne Of the
Federal Radio Commission yester'
day warned broadcasters against
can arrogant assumption Of politi-
cal power.
Payne spoke before Columbia
University of Journalism on the
commissions problems and those
of broadcasting companies.
Reform Necessity
He said:
"If there Is evident on the part
of broadcaSters an intention to in
crease the educational and cul'
tural qualities Of the programs,
If there is observable a desire to
reform the advertising methods
with which the public is afflicted,
the present system. private owner
ship will be maintained, I believe" "
Continuing. Payne warned:
ION the other hand, II there
Is an arrogant assumption Of po-
litical power, if there is, instead
of reform, increased lobbying &C
tivity. the indignation that now
is unspoken except by educators
and publiciSts, will spread"
Payne declared there was no
justification in picturing radio as
q fifth estate in the way the
press is considered the fourth es-
tate. He said q person with nee
esSary resources could start q
newspaper anywhere, a nyt m e,
through which to disseminate his
views. He continued:
Only 80 Channels
"A similar course Is absolutely
impossible in the case Of radio
broadcaSting. There are only 80
channels over which broadcaSting
may be DONE"
Payne also declared that this
nation would never stand for the
British system Of broadcasting
where there is no advertising and
the entertainment is paid for by
q tax on receiving sets.

Fair Liability at Sea.
gNew York World-T -Telegram0

The merchant marine legislative situation in Washington may be summed up in sentence The Copeland Bland subsidy bill will be passed; the Sirovich limited liability must be passed.
 The subsidy bill is being shepherded and sup ported by a powerful group of ship owners, each standing to receive millions of dollars of tax-paid argess by it's provisions and observers report there is doubt it will go through at the present session of Congress.
 Whether the must" of the liability bill is to prevail by its moral strength alone not yet estab- lished It represents no special interest-only the people the travelling public. It will not prevail if the owners have their way for their attitude defin
 tely is, Millions for subsidies but not one cent for damages in of disaster"
 But in all conscience it must prevail if the American people are to show any serious concern the Moro Castle disaster-l34 lives lost, the present antique liability law allowing a total of 20,000 damages for everyone-and if the American people to show any concern over the Mohawk fortyfive lives lost, total of $10000 allowed for all damages.
 The Srovich bill seeks to correct the grewsome absurdity of this eighty three statute, just England decades ago brought it's shipping liability up to date. It would make the shipping line re- sponsibie for negligence if it's agents and servants the captain-knew of the dangerous condition And it would allow damages up to a maximum of $l00 per ton per person.
 The opponents Of this proposal complain that it would cause prohibitve operating costs. Their an swer lies in their cherished subsidy bill bill written to insure a profit to the bankers who have taken up shipping investment, a bill resting upon the oft-repeated theory that the Government must compensate for the expensive operating conditions required under the American flag.
 The Sirovich bill rests now in the hands of the House Merchant Marine Committee. It is a prac- tical bill written after expert study of the need and of the Best practice abroad. It be passed by the present Congress There is lobby in ssting upon it, but it is the business of everyone who American ship. The Moro Castle and Mohawk dead testify to the urgent need for it. Now is the time for Chairman Schuyler O. Bland and his committee to bring this bill out onto the House calendar and for Congress to pass it.

NEW SOLDIER OF SCIENCE.

Even war, the tragedy which is ever brought home to us more vividy days like the Memorial Day just past, has developed something in behalf of mankind It is the use of maggots for bone infection. This larva of the common blue bottle fly is associated in the popular mind with filth and the obnoxious but through grim slaughter it has revealed to medical science one of the out standing developments in a quarter of a century.
 Dr Hugh Scott of the Edward Hines Jr. Hospital at Hines, Illinois, which handles veterans cases credits the recent World War with bringing the lowly maggot into place in the scheme of things although its work in evidence in prior wars. It is to Dr. William s. Baer of Johns Hopkins Hospital that credit is given for the discovery. Dr. Baer service with the soldiers in the field and ,ad opportunity to notice the results of wounds at -irst hand. He found that soldiers wounded in action and who had lain the field of battle for days before being brought in for medical atten tion usually infested with maggots Their wounds were alive with them but never did these victims of blood poisoning. While soldiers who were wounded and brought in before maggots at tackled them often died of poisoning rather than from the direct result of their wounds.
 After the when time afforded study was made of the intriguing revelation and scientists have found that the maggot instead of being a carrier of >dsease is rather good soldier in the cause of 
 the bacteria which infection of wounds, It does not attack the healthy tissue Experiments re- yealed that the soldiers whose wounds had been infested by maggots did not get blood poison ing because the insects killed the bacteria and left the wound to heal in natures way.
 Now bone infection, which long had been one of the most trying problems confronting medical science, is treated with maggot dressing and is found to be highly effective Live maggots are placed on the infested part and they eat away the sbacteria which the trouble These little wrig gles breed by the scientists under the most sanitary conditions and are now the principal remedy used in bone infection. They are sterile surgcally clean maggots, which can be introduced into the wound without fear of contaminating it.
 Dr. Scott in recent article the subject said "It makes little difference what type of bacteria cause the wounds, with one or two exceptions The two commonest types of pyogenic bacteria are easy prey for the maggots. So are most other types. With wounds infected by tuberculosis most com monly encountered in some types of fistulae, the maggot treatment is less successful. Our average with T B. wounds is only 10 per cent with maggots but even this is just many people cured who previously must have been given up"
 Thus war grim and cruel as it is contributes something to the betterment of the human race and good soldier of science

LAWRENCE OF ARABIA.

Every generation or two produces a character who becomes legend, and probably the outstanding of cur time is Colonel T. E. Lawrence, who was dubbed the "Uncrowned King of Arabia" and who died few days ago the result of a motorcycle for who had seen so much action to die but even ordinary roadside death could not detract from the luster that surrounded Lawrence Of Arabia"
 student and scholar at heart, Lawrence was a nan of opposites. Lowell Thomas who travelled with him when he leading the Arabs against the Turks in the World War, said Of him: Surely there a man with more contradictory characteristics than T. E. Lawrence scholar intrepid fighter, poet-dreamer and a first-rate mechanic, statesmen with a morbid almost path oogca aversion to publicity
 Rather an odd combination, but the ingredients in history. How this young Oxford student went into the Near East with expedition bent on digging up ancient history by excavation and study only to stay and become the leader of the famous Bedouns of Arabia is of the most interesting and colorful stories of time But what is even more interesting is the mans aversion to publicity and downright refusal to accept the honors and money which the world would have bestowed upon. Countless times he had opportunity to attain wealth by capitalzing on his adventures, but the picturesque fighting man turned them all down. He summed publicity like plague and while only 46 at the time of his death since the World War

An Unreliable Index.
Cincinnati Enquirer.)


 A sudden rise developed in the prices of secur- tes last week, corresponding to indications that the imitation bill might be enacted into law That rise, and the subsequent decline when word of a strong veto measure received, may suggest to many persons that imitation of the currency for veterans or for any other purpose, is a sure and quick way to recovery Such conclusion would be grossly in Any large imitation of the currency to pay real imagined public obligations would undoubtedly bring recovery of a sort and that very quickly. But speculative recovery is not a genuine recovery, and it would bring in its wake la collapse and long period of greater misery.
 It would be a mistake to watch the level of share prices the assumption that they are an accurate index of recovery The volume of new financing is a significant index, are the routine statistics of production and trade But the share market in it's nature is not wholly trustworthy gauge of permanent economic improvement
 The prices of common stocks in the long run valid prices and correspond to depression and pros perity. But at any given moment, such prices tend to reflect the estimates of future profits rather than the actual trend of business activity They indicate what people think is going to happen rather than what is actually happening Neither nor yet subsequent sag in security prices should be accepted the proof that recovery is proceeding or is failing

Yet People Can Be Pleased.
(Kansas City Star,

Every person engaged in business, a profession trade other occupation a period of years develops some sort of philosophy about his work
 Usually it is worth hearing. That of Calle H.
 (CaD Atchison, janitor of the Independence Boue
 yard Christian Church for twenty-five years, holds a lesson for those who will heed it. Honored al a dinner at the church Janitor Atchson merely says TT do not try to please the people; I only take of my church"
 There is comprehensive grasp of duty, indeed.
 How could the janitor of a church, or any other Iinstituton establishment please the people any |way? One would have it hot; another cold. One demands that the window be left open; another that it be closed forthwith One sees dust on the ,pews, scrap of paper on the floor smudge on the door panel another finds the building m- maculately clean janitor knows. There is no
 pleasing of the people if a person sets out to do that one thing. They are at everybody
 yet, paradoxcally and except occasion, they are nobody. Philosopher Emerson caught that idea a century back
 So a fellow must look to his job Fortunately
 Janitor Atchison in doing that has not held to the
 self centered view expressed by notable Amer ican capitalist of previous generation who ex- claimed The public be damned" The church. of lcourse will pardon the language. Janitor Atchison naturally will understand For it is quite obvious that in working zealousy at his job all these
 years Janitor Achison has contrived to please the people, abundantly.
