 Bob Hezcltine: It's better than the handicap system. At the end of the season, everybody will have the same average, and all the teams will be tied for first place and everybody wins first prize.

A WOMAN'S VIEWPOINT
By Mrs. Walter Ferguson

II ENVY the ancients," writes Young Father They
didn't have to worry about the size of their FAM
lilies 1t must have been comfortable letting God
arrange that affair for them We're having ruckus
in the house now. Our baby is 2 years old. My wife
insists on three at the least two children and
think we'd be nothing short of idiots to have an
other Unless, of course suddenly acquire rich
uncle in Australia or winning ticket on the Irish
Sweepstakes Kids deserve something better of their
parents than the slim security Of a bank teer's
salary"
My dear Young Man: You're only partly right
about that. kids also deserve something better
than to be brought up without brothers sisters.
Modern papas and mamas often overlook this point
In a reasonably arranged universe children out
live their parents When this happens as in the
of nature it must, only child is sngularly
aicne-alone in some fundamental sense which is
scarcely to be comprehended by those who possess
blood ties.
We can admit that it is possible for individuals in
the same family to be entirely different in tempera-
ment, to have no bond of understanding between
them Sometimes very close relatives are utter aliens
to each other But this is the exception.
In the average family there exists solidarity
which in certain ways, runs deeper than all other
relationship. When we are in perpexity or trouble
turn instnctively to those who share memories of
childhood with us The same tender mothers face
the protective love of the father these sat-
isfactions which material wealth can give u.s.
and without which financial security is quite ade-
quate.
Wise men build family traditions as we'll as for
tunes; they will wish to leave fine children as well
as great estates.
To be without kin. to miss ties of brotherhood, is
dreadful deprivation. Many. never having known
them. will say otherwise. They speak in ignorance
For a man may live without ever having the
mountains or the sea- he may lack the sustenance
of great books, and not know his misfortune But he
will have had thin existence.

out of employment. Manufacturers
everywhere were closing their plants.
No smoke from their smokestacks
was seen. Banks closing every
where; banks which were not closed
absolutely were restricted from pay
ing depositors. Thus innocent de-
positors were left helpless. Millions
were suffering for the necessities of
life. Was it not time for a. change?
Was it not time for a new deal?
Mr.. Hoover finds fault with this
Administration for what? He claims
Mr.. Roosevelt is trespassing upon
the Constitution. The Constitution
does not deny our government aid
ing the needy nor comforting those
in dire distress. Nor for making it
possible for manufacturers to open
their plants and give employment
to labor. Why does not Mr.. Hoover
offer some plausible solution or cure
for the dreadful depression which he
must father?
In Mr.. Hoover's speech at Fort
Wayne he said, 1.-The President said
there was not enough of gold to
pay everybody who held gold obli-
cations. You might as well say
there are not enough collins to bury
the people all at once" Is the above
utterance the language of a states
man or a demagog?

HOLY WEEK IN NAZIDOM

CARRYING higher criticism to new heights
~ Rechsbishop Ludwig Mueller the Nazi high
priest, celebrates Holy Week in Berlin by re-
writing the Sermon on the Mount. ST. Ludwig puts
bayonets into the beatitudes as handed down to the
world from ST. Matthew. For instance, he changes
Blessed are the peacemakers" to Happy those
who keep peace with their compatrots; for they
fulfill Gods will" For Blessed are the meek" he
substitutes Happy is he who always keeps good
comradeship; for he will be successful in the world
If "comrade,' says the bishop smite Nazi, he
need not hit back immediately" but the idea of
turning the other cheek is out
Germany also celebrates by issuing new official
reader for all IL and 12-year-old children Not
only is the poetry of Heine, the Jew, deleted but
Germanys Shakespeare, the great Goethe, is re-
placed by passages from Hitlers "Mein Kampf"
Goering's speeches and other Nazi propaganda.
And julius Streicher, the Reichs No. Jew batter,
proudly boasts that his Nuremberg now is the first
city completely to segregate Jewish children from
their "Arysn' schoolmates and to Danish them from
regular schools.

EASTER IN INDIANAPOLIS

INDIANAPOLIS is to observe Easter tomorrow with
greater expression of devotion and reverence
than the city has seen in years. 1t is to climax
impressive observance of Holy Week, commemor-
ated the week of the last suffering of Christ, and
as the week of the crucihxion.
Yesterday, thousands joined in downtown devo-
tons of Good Friday. Services were held in churches
and theaters. Many stores closed, and others made
1t possible for their employees to join in the worship
The deep spiritual character of the occasion for
indianapolis this year may be seen in the than
100 Easter church programs published in this issue
Of The Times. OF particular interest is the 14th
annual Easter sunrise carol service on Monument
Circle. Instituted and directed by Mrs. James M
Ogden sponsored by the ogden Junior Chorale, the
service is to feature Easter music by 300 voices from
many church choirs Fort Harrison many lodges and
other organizations have arranged special programs
to carry out the traditional spirit Of the day.

A RALLYING POINT

TT Is obvious that it has evolved an adequate
system of unemployment relief the government
must move forward to another difficult task-the
elimination of city and rural sllms.
Senator Wagner of New York. who seems always
to travel bit ahead of his brethren in this field has
introduced housing bill that contemplates this
necessary next STEP
While the new Wagner bill doubtless will undergo
number CT changes before it becomes law, it is
more statesmanlike than any slum abatement plan
far preached 1t corects five mistakes that have
marred former rehousng efforts.
First. it fathers all Federal housing activities
under one head, United States Housing Authority a
board of five with the Interior Secretary as es:-
offcio member Today housing functions are scat
tered through several agencies in Washington
Next it recognizes rehousing as not only an emer-
gency. make-work project, but long-term con-
struction job 1t is four-year program.
Next. it decentralizes building activities Federal
loans and grants to be made to local housing
authorities, except for certain demonstration projects
conducted by the government where local instru-
mentalities inadequate" 1t is absurd to expect
Uncle Sam to act landlord and rent-collector.
private capital has renquished-truy low-cost
housing. Previous efforts under FHA limited-divi-
dend corporations and PWA have resulted in costs
that put good housing beyond reach of the low
bracket incomes The best result in recent housing
provides homes renting monthly for $3.50 ROOM
Even at $3.50 normal family of five would
have to pay $315 year ir rent Considering that IL
million families had incomes of less than $1,000
year in 1929, this is far too much
Finally Senator Wagners financing plans are
less grandiose than those hitherto preached For
1897 selfliquidatng loans to local housing author
ties would be limited to 100 millions and for the
three next years to $50 millions. Grants limited
to 81 millions in 1887, rs millions the next and 100
millions for the next two years.
European countries have found public 81 N abate-
ment subsidies necessary We believe they are not
only necessary but logical. If decent homes sub
suted for the wretched tenements that spread their
blight over most of cities, taxpayers would pay
less for health police, fire prevention and other
services. Senator Wagner points out that London's
rehousing program reduced the death rate from 81
to 81 and the infant mortality rate from 246 to 1877
The tuberculosis death rate is five times higher and
infant deaths three times greater than normal in
Sums
The modern countries of Europe have made re-
housing big part of their reconstruction programs
In spite of our own mistakes and false starts we
probably shall be equally busy cutting out these
social cankers with the effective instruments of law.
Senator Wagners bill, doubtless, will be the rally
ing point of this next step in social progress.

USE OF DIM LIGHTS
UNDER ATTACK

By L. E. Davis
After seeing the cartoon on the
editorial page am prompted to ex-
press myself little. Saturday night
I had hair-greying experience all
because some battery-saver pulled
out of the line of traffic to pass two
or three cars as he was driving with
parking lights on. I could not see
him until he had passed the car
nearest me.
1t makes you feel funny to have
couple lights show up about so
yards in front of you, coming about
SO miles an hour
I think that since the police de-
partment is waging war on reck-
less driving, they ought to take a
few of these people to task for driv-
ing around after dark with cowl or
parking lights only. I've had one
accident and numerous scareS on ac-
count of such carelessness.
I also think the law saying per-
son driving a car must display two
lights in front and red one in rear
after dark ought to specify the can
die power as well because no one
can see a three candle power bulb
very far.

WE'RE LEARNING

INDIANAPOLIS has learned much about traffic law
- violations this week.
1t learned that in a two-month period II per
cent of all parked in the downtown mile square
area violated traffic ordinance, not counting
overtime parking.
More important, it learned that automobile laws

matter of enforcing existing laws and using
more thorough check-up arrest notices.
officials claim the fixing" of traffic tickets has
ended They found citizens willing to cooperate
Fines 90 per cent of the stickers paid within
the specified time per cent second notice, while
per cent carried their cases to court.
The result is that when all are treated alike and
no one believes that persons of influence are
evadng punishment, there is little disposition to
dsobey the law.
The traffic survey by $50 youths of the National
Youth Administration gives a basis for definite
corrective action. 1t reveals the hit-or char
acter OF enforcement in the past. II shows where
and when and to what extent the traffic laws have
been ignored.
Police say the "x-proof" stickers already greatly
have reduced traffic violations. especially parking
offenses.
The groundwork for continuous safety program
is here. The campaign" of non-fxable stickers
should become permanent policy.

BY DIR. MORRIS FIsHBEIN

MUCH of the usefulness of vege-
IVA tables is destroyed by i'm
proper cooking. Some of the loss
comes from dissolving the useful
substances in the cooking water;
others from overheating.
There are varying points of view
as to how the vitamin values are
best retained. The Bureou of Home
Economics of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture advocates
rapid cooking of vegetables at the
boiling point for as short a time
as possible. This, it is believed,
prevents loss of nutriment and
also gives more desirable color and
flavor to the vegetables.
The nutritive value of most vege-
tables is retained by baking in the
skin or eating raw.
It has been recommended that
strongly favored vegetables, such
as cabbage, cauliflower, and tur-
nips, be cooked in a covered vessel
in large amount of boiling water,
and that mild-f1avored vegetables,
such as spinach, green beans, and
peas, be cooked without cover in
the smallest possible amount of
boiling water.
Mild-flavored vegetables which
are not green, such as carrots
corn and celery, should be cooked,
either covered or uncovered, in a
moderate amount of water.

TODAY'S SCIENCE
BY DAVID DIETZ.

II IGHTY-FIVE savants, repre-
~ senting Is nationalities, have
played sufficiently important role
in the study of cosrnic rays to de-
serve to have their names listed in
a comprehensive history of the
subject.
You will find them enumerated
in q table at the mack of Prof. Har-
yey Brace LemonN new and excel
lent little book, "Cosmic Rays Thus
Far" Two years ago Prof. Lemon
published his splendid summary of
the science of physics under the
title of From Calico to Cosmic
Rays" The present book, therefore,
may be regarded somewhat as a
sequel.
But though IS students have
made important contributions to
the study of cosnic rays, Prof.
Lemon makes it clear that the scene
did not grow exciting until DR.. r. A.
Millikan entered the field.
The history of cosmic rays may be
divided into periods. There was the
first from 1900 to 1915 during which
the existence Of penetrating radia-
tons of some sort in the atmosphere
was discovered. Attempts at under
standing it we're not very satisfac-
tory. Among those who suggested
that the rays might be cosmic in
origin was Nine. lCurie.
The period from 1915 to 1925 was
one of inactivity.
In 1926, Millikan, by a series of
brilliant experiments, established
definitely the cosmic origin of these
rays.
The rext chapter was the debate
over the nature of the rays between
DR.. Millikan and DR.. Arthur H.
Compton. Prof. Lemon fails to men,
ton the several important meetings
of national scientific societies at
which Millikan and Compton direct
ly challenged each others view
points.
He does, however, make it clear
that the general opinion today is
that the rays consist of charged
particles. the view which has been
championed py compton.

That makes all the world akin,
