Raleigh, July 23.-The salary sche-

although the commission is also ex-

Lloyd E. Griffin has intimated that
the post of assistant executive secre-

THE COURTS CONTRIBUTION

THE Supreme Court finally has offered a key to
the powers of industry and government to adj
just the machine age to the needs of people.
Its recent unanimous Sugar Institute decision
suggests formula that would have been much more
valuable If it had been preached at the time of the
Schechter case last May. Much grief from loss of
wages and jobs then might have been saved
We say this because the decision appears to have
spelled out definite for voluntary co-opera-
ton within industry to weed it's unfair practices
and for Congress to expand such cooperation if it
desires.
One Of the chief merits of the decision was that
the court had definitely in mind tie preservation of
the customers buying power. The decision says that
IF the buyer force price down. he is entitled
to do under the antitrust laws" This often is
defationary process which may cause difficulties in
times of STRESS but it is the only way the court sees
to maintain price competition under our laws now
This attitude might we'll be kept in mind by Con-
advanced, for legislation governing the business
structure.
But if any legislation is taken up for enactment
this session on this subject it would be we'll for Con-
gress to bear in mind another important point not
involved in the Sugar Institute case but which is
essential to any possible sterilization law That is
the bottom that must be built for wages and hours
of those employed in industry. 1t was minimum
wages and maximum hours, plus the ban on child
labor that formed NFAs outstanding contribution to
a more orderly industrial system

got oopty loop thousands for not growing so many
bales on It's cotton land. And, maybe, Secretary
Wallace is bit afraid the Senator may have
good political hunch So he would rather we all
forgot about it until after November
But We can't see that the Senator's motives have
thing to do with the merits of his demand The
only flaw we see in the Senator's idea is that he
would limit publicity to the crop checks of $4,000
and over Why? Isn't the public just as entitled
to know about the 5000 check paid to one of the
Senator's own sugar-beet farmer constituents?
These crop control checks large and small are paid
by the taxpayers. And the Senator is dead right
in saying: mo individual who draws subsidies from
the public Treasury-no matter how worthy his
cause or classfcation-s entitled to immunity from
public scrutiny on this score"

A WOMAN'S VIEWPOINT
By Mrs. Walter Ferguson

WHATEVER we say about Bruno Richard
w Hauptmann, one can feel only pity for his
wife, who has fought for his life with all the
gallantry of one who captains lost
Here is bitter tragedy. Many women have
endured it. for it is our peculiar destiny to live
more in our husbands and children than we DO in
ourselves We belong to those we love in such
close union that we not separate ourselves
from their fate.
Like many another condemned man, Hauptmam
had one consolation. No matter what the world
believed of him with whatever sins his conscience
charged him, to Anna, his wife, he was innocent
Sophists can not argue these truths out of ex
istence cynics never will be able to overthrow the
power of such living faith, and atheists must find
it hard to cry There is no God" when so much
loyalty dwells in the hearts of mortal women
Crime and it's punishment create maelstrom
which sucks the innocent down with the guilty.
The state which kills the one, also kills some
thing vital in the other. The ripples from such
deeds widen beyond the limits of finite compre
hension. Thus it is that the mark of Cain is now
set upon the brow of Hauptmann's child and the
generations which will follow after him.
wonder how many remember the Biblical le
gend-the very first written argument against capi
tai punishment. Here is the verse:
And the Lord said unto him, Therefore Who
soever slayeth CAIN vengeance shall be taken upon
him seven-fold. And the Lord set mark upon
Cain lest any finding him should kill him."
Perhaps the tears of women who love them will
have power to wash away the sins of criminals
This believe however:
The state that kills in retaliation for killing
shall suffer vengeance seven-fold; the mark of Cain
will forever be stamped upon the brow of its people
and it shall know neither true prosperity nor peace

MAYBE THIS IS A BRIGHT IDEA

TITO permit Jim Farley to hold both the job OF
Il Postmaster General and the job of Democratic
National Chairman during an election year, says
Rep Lehlbach lis offensive to American political
traditions and subversive of principles of sound
government"
!. Which seems to us a mild understatement.
Congress should, says this New Jersey Republic
an pass his resolution respectfully recommending
to President Roosevelt that he ask MIR. Farley
to resign of the jobs.
Which seems to us an all too timid approach to
q redress of a grievance which has been too long
endured.
What about this:
Article O. Section of the Constitution pro-
ydes that civil officers of the United States
shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for
and Conviction Of Treason, Bribery, of other high
Crimes and Misdemeanors." Couldn't Jim'S case be
classified somewhere in the category OF Mis-
demeanorsP" What about taking money under false
pretenses? Farley is paid for being Postmaster
General and like some of his predecessors, spends
most of his time at another job Isn't that enough
for toe-hold at least toward his dislodgment? Or
mavbe somewhere in the vast library of law can
be found something about broken promises. jim
promised to quit but didn't do 1t.
Just curbstone suggestion. But think 1t over,
Mr.. Lehlbachl Search the statutes. You may have
something there

OUR WAR MONTH

DROUD-PIED APRIL, month of gentle showers
and winds, happens by some strange chance to
be our month of wars
All our wars excepting that of 1872, began in
April On April 10, IT'S the embattled farmers of
the Revolution fired the shot heard round the world
at Concord Bridge
The Mexican War began on April %, 1916, when
Gen. Zachary Taylors forces engaged Mexicans at
Matamoros.
The Civil War began with the bombardment of
Fort Sumter by the Confederates on April II, 1861
On April 81 1898, Congress declared war on Spain,
the first formal declaration in American history
And on April 6, 1917, America entered the war
to make the world safe for democracy"
We have not been peaceful country In $50 years
of life as nation we have fought six major wars,
more than one in every generation. Why have we
desecrated the first month of spring, natures sea-
son OF birth and life, by setting out to kill?

A HEALTH PROGRAM

ONE of the big jobs confronting the country now
~ is to protect the peoples health from the de-
pressions inroads 1t is WELL therefore, that President
Roosevelt has named his new surgeon general
young, aggressive and socially minded health ex-
pert who not only knows his subject but knows where
he's going.
DR.. Thomas Parran Jr, the new appointee has
just announced six "1usts" in health conservation
program He proposes:
1. To finish the job of wipng out tuberculosis
2 To Wipe out syphilis the results of which "crowd
our jails, our poorhouses and insane asylums."
g. To make available to people everywhere facil-
tiles for the proper diagnosis and treatment of
GER, which in DR.. Parran's opinion would reduce by
20 per cent the deaths from this disease.
T. To reduce the "disgracefully high" death rates
of mothers in childbirth and of babies in their first
month of life.
s. To correct the conditions resulting from i'm
proper diet.
g. To restore crippled children to lives of useful
ness.
Good health of course, is largely purchasable
commodity and can not be enjoyed by people living
on sweatshop wages in city and rural slums. DR..
Parrans program if carried out will go far toward
making us healthier nation.

we have a total of $113 taxes paid
out on $24 worth of bread. So, in
stead of paying 8 cents a loaf we
would pay a small fraction over
81-3 cents a loaf, which would be
about 5 per cent on dollar.
How does this compare with the
present tax? The gross sale income
tax would amount to 561a cents. Add
to that $1.38 the millers have been
paying on a barrel of flour and we
have tax of $1941a on the 300
loaves of bread which we are buy
ing for cents a loaf with this tax
included. This amounts to per
cent on the dollar you now spend
for bread.
If the processing tax of $138 is
removed the retailers can still sell
bread at cents loaf with the 2
DER cent tax included. The tax has
been shown to be only $113 on the
bread made from one barrel of
-four. The $113 sales tax on the
300 loaves of bread will be IS cents
Less than the processing tax Of

TINE fact that this is election year probably is not

when he demands that the AAA furnish list of all
crop benefit payments exceeding $4,000.
Nor, for that matter. does politics seem far from
the thoughts of Secretary Wallace when he counters
with the excuse that it would be too much trouble
to prepare the information A government official
should be the last to complain about making reports
Does the government show mercy in this re-
spect to income tax payers or corporations even
farmers who have to do business with the gov
eminent?
No. the truth is that Senator vandenburg an
anti-New Deal Republican, wants the figures to

with the sale of the raw material
and going through until the man
ufactured article is sold at the re-

Let us take bread, for example.
We now pay 8 cents for one
pound loaf. This price includes all
of the material, labor and over
head expense, and gross sale and
income tax of l per cent as well as
processing tax of $1.38 on a bar
rel of flour.
The farmer sells his wheat at 81

makes one barrel of flour Q96

by-products. The farmer sells five
bushels for S., adds 2 per cent tax
and the miller pays $50. Well, the
104 pounds of by-products will pay
for the milling so the miller has
$50 in the barrel of flour. If he
adds 20 per cent profit to the $51o,
he sells his flour for $6.25 to the
baker.
Then the baker sells 300 one

flour at cents a loaf or $21. Add
2 per cent and the baker will get
$21.42 for his bread. The retailers

ONCE people thought it was I'M
~ safe to eat oysters in a month
without an "R." Nowadays we
know that when oysters are
shipped, they are just as safe in one
season of the year as in another.
The oyster is a valuable food, be-
cause it is especially rich in certain
vitanins, in iodine, and in nutri-
tious protein.
Other shellfish in wide use are
clans, mussels, scallops, Holsters,
crabs, shrimps and crayfish.
Because of the feeding habits of
shellfsh, they are likely to contain
considerable numbers of bacteria
which are characteristic of the
water in which they are grown.
From time to time polluted waters
have given rise to epidemics of ty-
phoid fever following the eating Of
oysters raised in such waters.
In one epidemic, which occurred
in 1894, members of various COL
lege fraternities at Wesleyan Uni
versity had eaten oysters contami-
mated with typhoid germs. All the
oysters we're found to have come
from one dealer.
AS a result of these early obser-
vations, various states have passed
laws which control the pollution of
water in which oysters are grown,
as well as the manner of shipment.
Oysters are shipped into New York
City from New York state, Connec-
ticut, Delaware, New Jersey, Vir-
ginia, and Massachusetts,, as well as
from the places already mentioned.
