INDIFFERENCE
Ricbmond. Va News Leader


Richmond, Va. News Leader
One of the ablest men in Wash
ingtOn remarked the. other day that
the most alarming aspect of the
whole fiscal situation was, in his
opinion, the Indifference of the Am
erican people to the rapid increase
in debt. Scarcely protest, said he,
had come from those who would be
called upon to pay the taxes. He
went on to say that he had always
heard that a similar benumbing of
public sensibility had preceded ev-
cry great crash CT government.
We fear this historical analogy is
only too valid If we may trust
Flaubert's picture of conditions in
Carthage on the eve of the "rebel-
lion of the meTcenaries," the dumb,
passive fright of the American peO-
pie today is of exactly the same
sort.
Business men need not expect the
press to save the day. Neither must
the public look to the President to
halt the inflationists. Powerful as is
his influence, it will not suffice to
save governmental credit once the
of imitation get a start.

DYNAMITE IN YOUR KITCHEN

] Your kitchen contains every day
materials potentially as dangerous
as dynamite!
This was demonstrately recently
in an apartment house, when a ten
ant decided TO bake a cake. In gath
ering together the ingredients, she
discovered that the -four. which she
had poured out into a dish, contain
ed bugs. She stepped over to the in
cinerator, the shaft OF which ran up
past all OF the apartments, opened
the door and emptied the dish.
AS she closed the door, a volcano
seemed to erupt. A terrific explosion
shook the place and a sheet of fame
swept from the shaft into the kit
chen, disfguring the girl for life.
The doors Of the ineineratOr shaft
were torn off in all apartments and
great damage was done on each
floor. Several persons were sent to
the hospital And yet, only small
quantity Of -four was emptied into
that incineratOr- a pound
and a quarteri
What happened to cause this great
and unexpected explosion? The Ma
tional Board OF Fire Underwriters
offers this explanation:
As the poWdery substance was
thrown into the incinerator, It sepa-
rated and many minute particles
noated in the air. causing dust
cloud that exploded as soon as II
came in contact with the fire at the
bottom OF the incinerator shaft
Corn starch acts similarly under
certain conditions. Accumulations Of
lust. such as are removed from
7acuum cleaners or carpet sweepers,
inless compressed into a matted
mass. are also hazardous. A shovel
ul OF dry coal dust. if thrown loose
y over a flre. could cause a devas-
ating explosion and will. In any
vent. cause a dangerous haah-back.
The way 10 avoid dust explosions
; to keep the material IN a COM
act mass. When dispnsing Of dust.
should be put IN bag or wrapped

81. I.onIs. ~. Post.pIsnatnh

ST. louis, No. POST Dispatch
Working in almost frantic haste
the Senate passed the new soil CON
serVatiOn-farm subsidy bill to re-
place the defanet AAA, despite the
fact that It raises not only grave
doubts as to constitutiOnality but
appears to have insuperabie inher-
ent defects The bill vests Secretary
Wallace with the power to ladle out
the huge sums of $500, 900 900 to far
mers on what appears to many the
thin pretext that these payments
will result in conserving the soil in
the national welfare. IS
What has arisen is a panicky feel
ing in Congress that sOmething-al-
most anything be done for
the farmers Immediately. The pam
icky feeling is stimulated by the fact
that this is a presidential year.
In the opinion of many authOri-
ties, the bill flies in the face of the
Supreme Courts decision in the
AAA case, and that alone should
have prevented the Senates precip-
itate action. The suspicion natural
ly forms that the Senate is thinking
in terms of political exigencies;
that it calculates the immediate po-
litical benefits to be of more impor-
tance than the passage of legisla-
tiOn capable Of surviving the SUI
preme judicial test. The Senate ap-
pears to have been moved, too. by
the indefensible consideration that
a long time must elapse before the
Supreme Court can act.
The present bill is a desperate

duces a farmer who has been maxi

ONE-smRD TRANSPORTATION
REGULATION INDISPENSABLE

Regulation OF interstate domestic
! water carriers for hire, as proposed
in the Wheeler Bill now pending in

recommended by that body's Com
mittee on Interstate Commerce. A
like bill is also pending in the
House. The bills bear the endorse
ment of the Interstate Commerce
Commission end Federal C0ordina-
tor of Transportation Eastman. as
well as a host of private authorities
on the transport problem.
It Is difficult to see how any sound
arguments against them can be ad-
vanced. These bills have nothing
whatever to do with the proposals
before Congress for the encourage
ment Of the American merchant ma
rine In foreign commerce-they ap-
ply only to domestic commerce be-
tween states. They provide eompre-
hensive regulation for interstate
common carriers for hire, limited
regulation for Interstate contract
carriers for hire, and will not regu-
late private carriers not for hire
Under the terms of the bills, re-
bates. determinations and prefer
ence by carriers would be prohibit
