HOW VETERANS FEEL

L UROPE is generally admitted to be drift
II ing steadily toward war. How do the Eu-
ropean veterans of the last war feel about it2
AS fighting men, do they welcome the approach
OF a new war?
They do not. Representatives of the war
veterans of Germany and the allies met in
Parts recently and passed a resolution calling
for the maintenance of peace, abolition of war
like policies and the settlement of interna-
tional disputes by arbitration.
The veterans of all nations are passion
ately attached to the maintenance of peace"
they declared. Men who incite war are not
friends. but enemies of their own countries"
There is a calm note of warning in this
statement which the super patriots of all
lands, following policies that can lead to moth
ing but war, would do well TO heed.

A COURT OF BANKING

WITH one part of the new Senate sub
w committee draft of the banking bill, we
heartily agree 1t is the part creating Board
Of Governors of the Federal Reserve System,
consisting of seven members serving 14-year
terms.
This is a step toward establishment OF
court of monetary and banking affairs. The
long tenure should attract competent men, and
free the board of political considerations. The
honor and opportunity for service should be
great.
But We doubt the wisdom Of other sections
of the revised bill which continues, with some
modification, the present division Of authority
and responsibility between the government
board on one hand and private bankers on the
other. It was just such Observation-Disclosures
system which, in the middle and late twentieS,
did not work at all well.
We need court of banking and money free
of both politics and financial influence.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1935-07-08

prohteering, which flared high at the time of
Munitions Committees disclosures last sum-
mer and fall, has subsidized in recent months.
This is not because the public now condones
those wrongs, but because, occupied with other
troubles. the public has temporarily forgotten
them. If advocates of these measures will re-
dramatize the issues, a renewed public interest
Will force Congress to act-before it is too late
If taken. these preventive measures will
tend to restrain our entry into any future con-
fict But alone, they will not provide the
absolute security the people seek. That secur-
ity can be achieved only by preventing the
outbreak of any war between other nations
into which we might conceivably be dragged.
And to work to that end, the United States
must step out of its shell, into the world arena,
and cooperate with other powers in an ag"
gressive program for peace.

l. casualties. the newspaper reader can not
help rejecting that we are still a long way
from the safe and Sane Fourth" which was
set up as our goal so many years ago.
AS the peril Of fireworks grows smaller the
peril of automobile traffic grows greater. The
old swimming hole also claims its victims; and
the hrecracker itself, although less destructive
than formerly, still takes its toll of manned
hands, burned faces and injured eyes.
To be sure. vast improvement has been
made. The Fourth is no longer the occasion
for free-for-all hoodlumism that it used to be.
The bang Of explosives no longer sets the key
for the whole day. But We are still criminally
careless on this holiday. Each July brings a

quirements in each room, grade and
school; that the books will be in
control of the officials at all times;
and that only such books as are
adopted by the State Department Of
Education are bought.
The present law, the result Of
bill introduced by private school
man, is so written that the local
officials are required to establish
libraries" with books used in lieu
of textbooks as may be adopted by
the Department of Education-in
such number as will meet the needs
of each resident pupil.
This opens the way for unauthor-
lied textbooks in the schools and
requires the expenditure of tax
money for the benefit of all pupils
whether they are in public school
or not. 1t prevents adequate super
vision and control of public prop
erty by school officials and results
in the use of public money to pur-
chase equipment for private school
enterprises.
Certainly all children are entitled
to free books and just as all children
are entitled to free schools, they are
welcome to attend them ia order to
receive the benefits.

BEFORE 1T is TOO LATE

WAR in Europe is now more imminent
W than at this season OF 1914" and if It
comes the United States viii be dragged help
lessly into it. Senator Bennett Clark said in
q Fourth of July Grafton at the Tomb of the
Unknown Soldier.
We hope that events will prove the Mis-
souri, Senator a poor observer and a worse
prophet. But We agree with him when he says:
For the craftsmanship OF our own country
to fail to guard against a repetition of our
tragic experience of the World War when we
literally drifted into a war between other ma
tons is inexcuSable and criminal negligence
We agree with him that it is high time for
Congress to take, precautions against war by
enactjng neutrality legislation drafted after
long study by the Munitions Committee on
which Clark has served, and by other congress
sional committees and experts Of the State
Department.
These measures include two Clark-Nye
resolutions. recommended by the Munitions
Committee. Endorsed by the Foreign Relations
Committee and now on the Senate calendar
one prohibiting loans to beligerent nations
the other forbidding passports to Americans
for travel II war zones. Another is the Pope
resolution. now before the Foreign Relations
Committee, which would place arms manufac-
ture under system of Federal licenses and
provide for enbargoes on arms exports under
certain circumstances
Another urgent measure is the bill TO limit
wartime profits. passed by the House. rewritten
by the Munitions Committee. cleared through
the Senate Military Affairs Committee ana
now IN a pigeonhole OF the Senate Finance
Committee.
There is a legitimate dispute about certain
provisions Of this bill, which some consider TO
be so drastic as 10 be self-defeating But this
difference OF opinion does not justify further
delay
Since they serve no selfish interest, there
exists no group pressure behind any of these
measures 70 preserve peace and share the
burdens OF possible future wars. These who
have axes to grind. for reasons of profit or
glorihcation. oppose passage. They count on
public apathy to help them maintain the
status quo.
Unfortunately. but quite naturally. public
resentment against war molgering and war

KIDS PLAY

THE taxpayers Of Marion County have paid
Il Criminal Judge Frank P. Baker an aver
age Of s6736 an houI for his work during the
last two weeks.
At the same time. the same taxpayers have
paid Joel A. Baker investigator" of the
court an average of s824 an hour for his time
spent in WORK IN the courtroom.
The average Of s873s an hour for Judge
Baker is limited to the time he spent on the
Criminal Court bench dispensing justice under
the post to which he was elected by the tax
payers Of the county.
The amount paid Joel A Baker is pocketed
by him while the Attorney Generals Office
seeks the legal aspects of his status as an
investigator"
The hours Of Judge Baker, The Times has
found. call for a session of court in the morn
ing. Recently though he has held few
night sessions, ranging from a few minutes
to several hours in duration.

STATE TAX BOARD HAS
| NO RATE-FIXING POWER

BY Times Reader.
The Supreme Court decision that
the municipalities of the state do not
have a right under the Constitution
to set tax rates in such manner as
will enable them to carry out the
purposes of local government, with
out having to go to an "administra-
tive" state tax board for permission
to fix the rate, is absurd. The state
tax board is not legislative body.
Tax rate making is legislative
function. 1t can not be delegated to
an administrative body such as the
State Tax Board of necessity must
be.
Legislative power to fix tax rates
can not be conferred by the Legis-
lature on any administrative body.
Legislative power is only held by
legislative city councils and county
councils. They are the law-making
power of counties and cities. With
out this lawmaking power the cities
and counties could have no local
government. Cities existed before
bIlG SIdbE SONC1 AAAA4SAAV was 0SS AP'
Their organization was recognized
in the making of the Constitution.
1t was not destroyed by the adoption
of the Constitution.
Cities are not the "vassals" of the
state. Only in great emergencies
such as the total failure OF local
government, or the matter of insur-
rection. has the state power to take
over the functions of local govern
ment.
The Constitution provides a 2 per
cent debt limitation on all Local
government.
Tax rates locally are but the con-
Germ of the voters who elected their
tax-rate makers locally, as well as
their state tax-rate makers, the leg
islators. The only lawful State Tax
Board function is administrative, to
check the total valuation of prop
erty locally and statewide, and to
calculate the rate necessary to raise
the budgets of the state and munich
palities. 1t has no power TO Tx
rates.

by enemy raiders, seems to be carrying caution
to fault.
We have been spending somewhere between
Navy, of late, and from all accounts it seems
to be in pretty fair shape. If our gold reserve
remained in Washington and We got into a war
and the enemy decided to invade the continent
tai United States-something which no enemy
in his senses would dream of doing, probably
it would first be necessary for this enemy to
sink our fleet, lock, stock and barrel.
The fleet sunk-and naval strategists agree
that there is no fleet in existence that could
successfully attack our fleet on our own side
of the Atlantic-there would still remain our
Army air force.
You may recall that elaborate plans were
drawn up by the Army not long ago for con-
centrating our planes in such way that vast
horde of them could swoop down out of the
sky on any invader. Clearly, the enemy would
have to bring something like a thousand fight
ing planes of his own before he could get with
in shouting distance of the Treasury's gold
vaults in Washington.
We have, also, certain coast defense forts,
on which much money has been expended.
British experience at the Dardanelles in the
World War showed that even second-rate land
forts can beat off an attack by dreadnaughts.
Coming up the Chesapeake with feet of troop
ships would not be a simple task.
Lastly, we have an Army. 1t isn't very big,
to be sure, but it is pretty tough, what there
is of it, and the time that it would take to
sink our Navy, destroy our air force and crush
our coast defense batteries ought to enable us
to expand it pretty we'll to form a good recep-
ton committee.
All in all, it hardly seems that our gold re-
serve has been in any great danger Digging
a pit for it at Fl. Knox may provide some one
with good exercise, and give the garrison at Fl.
Knox a feeling of importance, but it IS a little
hard to see what other really important end
it serves

CHANGE OF LABELS ONLY
DIFFERENCE IN L. S.

BY Reader.
Senator Metcalf of Rhode Island
deplored the so-called socialistlc
tendencies of the Roosevelt Admin
istration in his radio address on the
Fourth. He deplored the competi-
tioa Of government in IVA with
"Insullana" corporations. The hold
ers of the pretty paper of holding
companies" are also moaning, but
not about the same thing. 1t is ap-
parent that Senator Metcalf's col
ony of Rhode Island does not OBJ
iect to "capitalistic" socialism.
America has had that brand for
many years. All the rugged indus
tries of Rhode Island have had the
socialistic contribution of govern
ment tariffs" on foreign COMPETE
tors for Rhode Island manufactur-
ers. These infant" industries are
still on the tariff bottle.
Tariffs are subsidies to prevent
the more efficient foreign manu-
facturers from getting their goods
sold in competition with the less ef-
fcient American manufacturers.
Subsidies are socialism in actor"
for the benefit of the weakened
and inefficient rugged individual
manufacturers The bowling" press

hours Gay, days week for an
average of S1.35 day, including

which is the off season for the taxi
business. wages will be much less
The majority of drivers depend
upon relief organizations or rela-
tives for help, as it is impossible to
support a family on such wages.
These low wages cause about 40
per cent turnover in drivers and
within few days they find they
can not exist on such wages. They
quit and another group of men is
hired. These new drivers, being I'M
familiar with conditions, cause a
hazardous condition on the streets.
If the number of cabs was cut to
what the taxi business actually de-
mands, the drivers would make a
fair living wage. This would tend to
adjust the whole situation.

After reading an article in the
July Sd edition of The Times,
What Price Juvenile Courts?" I
am asking you to allow my eX-
PLANTATION to be printed.
We should not be interested in
the location of the Detention
Home, but we should be trying to
find out and remedy the cause of
crime. Our judges, probation off,
GERS and all the social service
agencies should select all of their
investigators carefully and select
human beings and not just COL
lege automatons. A college edu-
cation is good and necessary in
some walks of life. 1t is advan-
tageous in the clerical staff and
statistical departments.
The probation officers in the
investigation department and
most of the social service inves-
tigators should be men and wom-
en- of an age to have had expert
ences with the problems of life.
The young workers merely find
out all they can because it is
their duty. An older, honest, sin
cere and experienced worker
would find out all he could so he
could be help.
No young college graduate,
however, can feel, know, under
stand or sympathize as an older
person. College investi-
gators are the causes of their
jobs becoming as sounding brass
and tinkling cymbals.
AS long as the people allow
a few of our so-called big-headed
leaders to select the probation Of

Probation System Change Urged

f1cers from a political standpoint,
the taxpayers will have to con-
tinue to build prisons and deten-
ton homes.
Most of the probation officers
and investigators of the social
service are persons who have
never known what it is to be
hungry, cold or homeless. Their
parents settled or helped them
settle all their childish problems.
We should be ashamed that we
need a larger detention home.
The taxpayers money is going for
juvenile court workers and all
kinds of social service agencies.
They should organize and be so
thoroughly acquainted with their
districts as to prevent so many
boys and girls from becoming de-
linquent. An ounce of preven-
ton is worth a pound of cure.
So, taxpayers, see that your
money is spent for the right kind
of officers.
In probation and social service
work, an understanding and SYM
pathetic worker is worth all the
degrees a college can bestow. And
though I bestow all my goods to
feed the poor, and though I give
my body to be burned and have
not charity, it prof1teth me moth
ing. So see that men and wom-
en- are selected for their under
standing and for seeing intuition
and personalities instead of col
lege degrees.
1t doesn't take a college degree
to understand and help an erring
brother.

TRAFFIC OFFICERS ACTS
DISGUST CITY VISITOR

BY NJ. A. Weyand, milford, Ill.
We left our little city June q
through Charlottesville, on Route "a
to visit indianapolis. My family had
never been in your city and I
thought it nice trip to make.
The family was to do considerable
shopping after dinner. Three diff
ferent times before we reached the
Monument Circle we were accosted
and profanely abused by city traf-
fic officers. I had made no bad or
dangerous mistake, but was not ac-
customed to the regulations there.
No doubt I was in the wrong, but
they accepted no apology. We
kept on moving and got out Of the
city as soon as we could find Route
90 to Logansport.
For years I have bought goods
from Indianapolis factories, but now
they have sure scared me away.
My sight is good and nearing
good, but made few hobbies in a
strange city.

The petition at Anderson for free

Of the need for revision Of the law.
1t would seem to be obvious to
every taxpayer that the practical
and economical method of providing
free textbooks would be for public
school officials to equip each Of the

that the tax money will be used
