SENATE AND SEA DISASTERS

CENATOR WAGNER'S resolution calling for
- survey Of the Moro Castle Mohawk and
other sea disasters. passed by the Senate. is
vigorous and far-reaching.
The Senate's Committee on Commerce and
its subcommittee on Merchant Marine are au-
thorized not only to collect and coordinate
the reports of the Commerce Department and
United States Attorneys Investigations of the
various sea holocausts but by inference to in
vestigate the investigators also.
This last urged upon Congress by the
Scripps-Howard newspapers in their campaign
to obtain adoption of a new and humane set
Of American sea laws, is of great Importance
The Wagner resolution inferentialy recog-
nized the inadequacy and ineficiency of the
Federal Steamboat Inspection Service by di-
recting an inquiry regarding it. The resolutions
drove straight home to a fundamental cause
of the MORO Castle catastrophe in authoriz-
ing inquiry into the methods and practices in
recruiting crews, including wages and all con-
ditions of employment. 1t also directed inves-
tigation of the ancient law on limited liability
for death and injury and the effect of salvage
and marine insurance laws on safety of vessels
and passengers.
The committees are therefore given power
to rip wide open an ugly situation and create
new era of safety on American ships at
sea.
Now let the committees subpoena inspectors
who let the Inflated ships sail, members of the
New YORK Grand jury reported dissatisfied
with the way their inquiry was conducted,
likewise competent persons who observed the
unsatisfactory inquiries of the steamboat in
spectorS who were sitting in judgment also on
the work of their own bureau.

SOIL NEEDS PRESERVATION

ONE Of the most important measures now
~ being pursued by the Federal government
is the effort to check soil erosion. The prob
lem Of erosion-which most OF US hardly rec
ognized as a problem at all. until recently
was graphically presented in recent speech
By H H Bennett. director Of the Interior
Departments soil erosion service.
Most American soil has been titled only
short time in comparison with that of Eu-
rope" he says Yet in the area east Of the
Appalachians. where there was no erosion
when the white man took the land from the
Indian. there are nov 10000 gullies so feet
deep and a mile long
America has wasted its soil resources more
rapidly than any other country in the world"
Il is worth remembering that our tremen-
dous agricultural resources have been the
foundation OF our greatness. The task Of pre-
serving them Is one Of our most vital re-
spouSibiiities.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1935-03-23
GOVERNMENT TEAMWORK

MUCH of the conflict and suspicion now be-
4'A ing engendered between the White House
and Capitol Hill might be prevented by the
pending Harlan bill to permit Cabinet officers
to sit IN Congress. lay their cards on the legis-
lative table and submit to questioning from
Senators and Representatives.
The proposal is not new. Back in 1864 a
special committee of both Houses recommended
that Cabinet members sit with Congress on
Tuesday and Thursday mornings and engage
in debates. Similar proposals were made by
committees in 1881 and in 1925.
Nor is it novel to other countries. In Eng
land. France. Norway. Denmark, the Neither
lands and other parliamentary countries, of
course. the government sits with legislative
bodies and answers for its policies
In the United States the only Inks be-
tween the executive and Congress are presi-
Dental messages. informal visits and phone
messages between congressional leaders and
the White ToIse, infrequent testimony by Cab
met members or their assistants before con-
greSsional committees. About the only con-
trois Congress exercises over policy. except the
negative one over finance, are lengthy and
costly congressional Investigations. In Presi-
dent Grants eight years Congress conducted
81 such inquiries
franker and more efficient relationship is
needed, particularly il these days Of expand
ing executive powers. Prof Harold j. Lasd SAYS
that Cabinet attendance in Congress would
make the debate more responsible. restore the
significance OF opposition and tend to pre-
vent such costly corruption as was revealed in
the Fall and Daugherty scandals. Elihu Root
has said it would improve the conduct of both
the legislative and executive business of the
government" DR.. Charles A Beard thinks it
would have wholesome influence on both de-
partments OF government" The proposal is
backed by Chief Justice Hughes, John w. Davis
and others.
woodrow Wilson. whose administration was
marred by bitter clashes with Congress. urged
that the Cabinet be used as a connecting link
between the executive s.id legislative branches.
The degree OF separation now existing be-
tween the executive and legislative branches
can not long be preserved without very seri-
Gus consequences resulting" he wrote. Con
gresS and the President now treat each other
as almost separate governments. so jealous Is

utterly impossible for the United States to
stay out Of 1t.
Looking back at what happened in 1914
and Immediately thereafter. it is not hard to
understand why people should feel that way.
And yet it is equally hard to see why the pro-
gram we followed during the last war has to
be duplicated in the next one.
We weren't able to keep out of the last
war-granted But is there any overwhelm-
ing reason why. profting by the lessons we
learned then, We can not keep out Of the next
one?
If we hope to do so, there-are two courses
open to US.
The first one is to follow the lead Of the
internationalsts. work with the League Of
Nations right up to the hilt, negotiate and
confer with European statesmen whenever
the European pot starts boiling and take in
every way possible an active, energetic course
to keep war from starting.
Considering what the American electorate
has done to the League of Nations propo-
nents at various times. it is hard to picture
any American government following that
course.
The other possibility is to buttreSs our iso-
lation in every imaginable way. And the
most important way would seem to be to get
a new concept of neutrality.
We started out to be neutral in the last
war. But what happened? We loaned money
and sold supplies to all corners; the only per-
sons who could get at us TO borrow and buy
we're the allies: as an inevitable result, we
soon became in fact, although not avowedy
a silent partner in the allied cause We we're
their banker and their production manager.
Once that had happened, it was only a
question Of time before We should get into
the war in bloody earnest.
Neutrality of that kind is no neutrality at
all. If We follow the same course in the next
war, We may expect the same result.
But we can devise a new kind of neu-
trality. We can refuse to sell or to lend to
any warning nations. That would be a hard
