No non official citizen of the

Adolph S. OchS He was the WiseSt.
the kindest the most just. the most
liberal minded and the most charitable

money was sent. that it was intended
to be used to help get this ellen. out

cation of the B. & o. for a loan of
$4,000, 900 from the Government.
That loan was authorized to the
B. & o. when this lawyer came out

Long next attacked Farley because
Of the sheets of imperforate postage
stamps. which he presented 10 some
of his friends.
These stamps were worth several
hundred thousand dollars and he
knew it." said Long The Louisiana
Senate charged that not only did
Farley give these stamps to his friends,
out that he gave them to persons who
were being solicited to give business
TO concerns in which Farley was in

Farley demanded the return of the
stamps, but that they ha dbeen hy-

they couldn't get them back.

Washingtons hidden bars" is the
device adopted by the Commissioners,
who were specifically cautioned by the
President at The time of the signing
Of the local liquor control act, to pre-
vent the return of the saloon. That
is the reason the Commissioners have
been opposed to the provisions of the
Dirksen BIZ, passed by the House and
favorably reported by the Senate District
Committee, which would remove the reg
ulations represented in the hidden bars.
And it should be manifest that If there
are certain evils attributed to the hidden
bars, there are others even more strongly
associated with the saloon. It is q
question whether the removal Of one
evl should be brought about by substi-
tuition of another.
The theory Of the hidden bar" Is
not based on the sentiment that any
harm results directly from customers
witnessing the mixing of his drink. But

issued only to bona fide restaurants,

amount Of radium gas huctuateS. In
general, this radium content Is found
to be greatest in the morning and least
in the evening. This is believed to be
due to a continual concentration dur
ing the night of radium emanation in
the lower layers of the atmosphere.
During the day winds and convection
currents scatter the gas to higher levels,
so that its concentration near the
ground where the measurements are
made Is decreased.

Minute electric currents flowing
through the earth's crust are being
studied by the Carnegie Institution Of
Washington.
Long a subject Of speculation, this
earth current has been found by DR..
W. J. Rooney, Carnegie Institution physi-
cist, to show striking relationships to
changes in the earths' magnetic field.
It was found that at TuScon, Ariz., the
earth currents flowing in an east-west
direction are greatest at about IL am.
during December, while during June
the greatest current flows at about 8
am. There are corresponding changes
in the north magnetic force at that sta
ton, the force being greatest around
noon In the Winter and least at that
time in the Summer.
Sometimes these currents are regarded
as giving rise to part OF the observed
changes In the earth'S magnetism and
sometimes as being due to these mag
netic changes.

Do not mix reading and drinking.
Templeton Jones proved this TO him.
self the other morning by dropping q
cup of hot coffee in his lap.
His interest In what he vas reading
caused him to forget about the cup for
Just second.
It was enough.
The cup tilted slightly, the hot fiuid
poured down over his shirt front.
His necktie oozed wet, like q piece Of
plotting paper.
ALI this time Jones had been sitting
In daze, the sort of coma, that attacks
those in an automobile accident.
Templeton Jones recalled swiftly, as
O drowning man will, the time Bill Smith
was taking him down to work in his
big car.
They ran into the rear end of truck.
Jones saw something shining 60 rolling
down the street.
Idly he wondered what it was.
Only then did he realize that he had
been In an accident, had watched the
chromium rim Of the right headlight
go spinning down the broad avenue.
It was several seconds before he COM
pretended that he had dropped q cup
of coffee in his lap.
Fortunately, the drink was not hot,
The worse damage was to the necktie,
shirt, underwear, temper.
The rug and chair came next.

While Jones was hopping up, he
speculated on the drink.
Ordinarily, he drank 1t hot enough
to scald the skin.
Yet the inner membranes Of the body
seemed to stand the hot stun pretty
well, curiouSly enough.
Because they stood it, however, was
no reason at all why they should be
forced to undergo such a trial, at that
daily, at regular intervals.
Yet millions of persons the world
around subjected their mucous MEM
branes to the tribulation Of being bathed
In practically boiling hot water.
Templeton Jones had evolved Q
scheme for keeping his as hot as possible.
The cup, before being filled, was pre-
filed with boiling water, and permitted
to stand q few seconds, until the ware
was heated up all the way through.
Then the water was dumped out, and
the coffee poured In.
This system was necessary in order
to permit Jones to use as much cream
as his taste demanded.
Some people said that Jones liked
little coffee with his cream" but this
was pleasant SANDER.
Jones liked his light" that was an.

While he was dressing again, he specu-
lated some more.
Everybody SpeculateS.
It Is a part Of life.
Jones often thought that a fine book
could be written on what people think,
when they are not thinking at all, IN
one sense.
The idea of theory Is bound up with
speculation.
When one speculates, one thinks in q
slightly different way.

amused the hopping Jones. By this
time he had got to the rug, where a
small pool had formed.
Surely no one ought to drink very
hot water.
But all do.
The question, then, is why they do It?
The answer Is equally plain. Because
the custom Is pleasant.
There is stimulation In heat, espe-
ciaIly applied internally. The real
warmth would be given equally well by
plain hot water, but. every one knows
how fat it tastes.
Jones realized that there Is not much
point in cruSading against the use Of
hot water in some form or other.
What can be done BY the individual
Is to drink the water, in whatever form,
at the least point Of heat which has
the effect.
One should drink hot drinks very
slowly, sip at time.
Gulping hot water Is worse than
gulping ice water.
Some of the curse Of each extreme
Is removed by the good habit Of taking
ones time.
This brought Jones back to a little
self -congratulation on his personal
habit Of taking his time, whenever
possible.
Hurry is one Of the real banes Of
humanity.
Hurry Is all right, Jones thought, when
hurry is necessary, but hurry just for
the sake of hurry is mostly worry.
Then our hero caught himself think
ing as follows:
well, you weren't hurried bit, and
vet look what you went and done!"
Templeton Jones loved the INGRAM
NAUTICAL, he used it secretly whenever
possible.
Few men were more meticulous in
their speech and writing, to observe the
grammatical nicetieS, but when it came
to his own thoughts, Jones insisted on
q few commonplace.

He believed that some day the form
would utterly replace Its I. J"
He sometimes wondered If all men, In

one pleased, in the secret places of the
heart.
1t was q pleasure to retire there. at
times, as all persons do, whether they
admit it or not, Just to be as terribly
ungrammatical as one desired.
In it also one might swear fuently,
upon such occasions as one found 1t
necessary.
Templeton Jones surprised himself
upon the occasion of dropping his cup
Of coffee.
He neither swore aloud nor secretly.
Nor did he wax ungrammatical.
He was 50 surprised, indeed, that all
he could do was mop up.
There was plenty of that, Of course.
It was amazing how much shirt front,
tie, chair, rug one ordinary cup Of coffee
could cover.

After a somewhat Arctic welcome in
Paris, Capt. Anthony Eden, newly
created minister for League of Nations
affairs in the Baldwin government, is
proceeding to Rome for consultation
with Premier Mussolini on variety Of
burning topics. If Britains rowing diplo-
mat found the French atmosphere chilly
because of the Anglo German naval deal,
which has driven the last nail IN the
coffin Of the Versailles treaty, he is not
likely to encounter much warmer politi-
cal weather on the Tiber, for the Italians

too. It concerns Abyssinia and is based
on Rome's suspicion that the British
are encouraging the Philippians to main
tain stiff resistance to italian pressure
and may even have some secret under
standing to help Emperor Halle selassie.
Capt Eden himself In the House of
Commons recently piIloried italian
charges Of British intrigue In Abyssinia

as "nischieyous" and "1udicrous."
Doubtless he will present evidence in
Rome designed to convince the FaScists
that their alarms and innuendoes are
groundless. A far tougher task VIII
confront him with respect to Italy and
the League Of Nations. Abyssinia this
week again appealed to Geneva for pro-
lection against italian aggression as
manifested by Rome's unabashed prepa-
rstions for war. Halle Selassie cate
gorically inVokeS article ten Of the Cove
nant, pledging League members to re-
spect the territorial integrity of other
members. Abyssinia also proposes that
the League dispatch its own observers
to the disputed area to ascertain the
justification or otherwise for italian
claims. MuSsolini has lost no time in
letting it be known that italy would
unhesitatingly quit the League If it
interferes in her controversy with the
Philippians.
Thus Capt Eden has a dual task be-
fore him, and one calculated to test
his negotiatory talents to the full. He
has first to purge the Italian mind OF
the belief that Britain is blocking
Mussolini's path in Africa. Then he
must labor with II Duce to recognize
the Leagues status as a peace-preserV-
ing organization Of which both Italy
and Abyssinia are full-hedged members
of equal standing. If the League Is to
save any of the face 1t has left, it must
insist upon a square deal for Abyssinia
within the terms Of the Covenant. If
Italy remains adamsnt in denying
Geneva's Jurisdiction in the Ethiopian
quarrel and eventually follows Japan
and Germany out of the League, that
body's existence will once again be
gravely threatened.
The British minister for League affairs
very obviously has his work cut out Tor
him In Rome. Somebody and some
thing are going to have to give way.

An Orderly Tax Study

l. The agreement reached between tine
Commissioners and the Senate District
Committee to lay aside all local tax
measures for this session and to make
a study Of the local tax problem during
the coming Summer is wise for more
than one reason. II all the local tax
measures discussed and proposed were
rushed through Congress at this time,
confusion as well as hurtful inequity to
the District would result. There is the
additional consideration that while new
revenue measures are suggested to meet
the needs Of pending social security
measures, the needs are still q matter
of conjecture and are largely based on
rather loose estimates.
But Commissioner Hazen sums up the
advantages of the proposed tax study
this Summer-in preparation for legis-
lative consideration next year-in few
words when he suggests that it cover
"a broad view of the entire fiscal picture
In all its ramtf1cationS." This broad
view extends beyond the matter Of
what new local taxes might be adopted.
II embraces the existing adequacy OF
the current tax burden, as measured by
fair and acceptable comparisons with
the tax burdens of other municipalities;
It embraces the obligations of the nation
al exclusively controlling Government
as well as the obligations Of the local
tax-paying community. And as Senator
Copeland suggests, it should cover not
only the subject Of new local taxation,
but of the present standard Of local
assessment, which adds unique factor,
not always considered and often
enormously interpreted, when Washing
tons tax burden is compared with the
tax burden of other cities.
The Commissioners proposed tax
study this Summer should and easily
NAV be made the occasion for the
preparation of q complete outline and
discussion Of the serious fiscal problems
confronting the District as the result
of continued arbitrary reductions Of the
lump sum. These problems include not
merely the new tasks of adequately
financing extraordinary forms OF gov
ernmental assistance to the aged, the
blind and the unemployed, but OF prop
erly maintaining and developing the
normal functions of government in edu-
cation, health, police and fire protection
and that form of public welfare repre-
sented In the provision of suitable
recreational facilities. Senator Kings
designation of Senators Capper and
McCarran as a subcommittee to work
with the Commissioners assures the
local community fair and sympathetic
hearing.
