A N AUTOMOBILE trailer that had
forgotten its function in the world
and wasn't trailing at all. but was
leading rapidly down hill on the wrong
side of the road. created a minor panic
recently on the boulevard to Balti-
more.
Passing over the bridge at Hyatts-
vile the trailer unlocked itself from
its automobile and rolled down grade.
gaining speed with the descent and
scattering terrified motorists to the
wrong lane of traffic and the shoulders
of the highway. The vehicle finally
came to stop on the level, calico
curtains f1uttering, and a small crowd
gathered round, wondering how to
move it out of the stream of traffic,
when ITS owner arrived, breaking all
speed laws.
He seemed relieved that the group
didn't include dying autoists, and drove
of with his home on wheels, once
more conducting itself In a meek and
domestic fashion.

While the sun appeared in n haZy
sky for q brief time today, the city
and section felt the forerunner of low
temperatures predicted tonight in the
sweep eastward of the new cold wave
that is sweeping down from the north.
Temperatures Tuesday were mild.
but northwest wind blew in colder
weather during the night and continu-
cd to blow today. The weather fore
cast is for cloudy and colder weather
tonight and probably rain or snow to-
morrow.
Most of the snow that has been on
the ground for week or more melted
ana was carried off by the rain Of
Monday and Tuesday. Only in scat
tered localities was it in evidence to-
day but very little melting was done
during the day. as temperatures were
too low to permit. it.
Great clumps of hard frozen snow
remained, and much warmer weather
than has thus far been experienced
during the present cold snap will be
required to clear away the last Of the
snow.

KANSAS CITY, Oct. 14.-Fol
IotDtng is the partial tert of PreSi
dent RooSeueIt'S address here last
night:
I have Just come through east
ern Colorado and western Kan
sas-partS of our national dust
bowl-where deep holes in the
ground and swirling clouds Of
dust show the erosion which
years Of mans neglect has
wrought in the soil. And in
your own States you have all
seen other examples Of waste in
the physical resources Of our
country-water, trees, birds and
other wild life.
But through the years Of this
depression we have had destruc-
ton even more tragic than that
waste in men and women, in
human skill, character and life.
OF all the appalling waste of
the days Of false prosperity and
recent disaster, human erosion
has been the most ominous.
There was unfortunately, for
q long time in the high places of
Government in Washington a
school Of thought that human
waste was the concern only Of
private charity and local comml-
mites. We have learned q lot
since those days. We no longer
believe that human beings hit
by flood, drought, unemploy-
ment or any other national dis
aster should be left to themselves
with the sole hope Of such char
ity as may be locally available
to them. 1t may not be enough
to go round.
Take Stock Of Youth
Government since 1888 has
begun to take stock Of the hui
man assets of the young men
and women of America-the raw
material out Of which the United
States must shape its future.
Natures deepest instinct is the
concern in every parents heart
for the welfare Of the children.
It is a law of nature which
equals even the instinct for the
preservation of life.
Indeed it is part of that law,
for without the preservation of
youth, the race itself would per.
ish. And so, the highest duty of
any government is to order pub
lie affairs so that opportunities
