EllswOrth's Rescue
(New York Times)

tNeW YOrk TlmeS)
 The pulse quickened cares vanished, the eye fell headlines which announced that Lincoln Els worth and his pilot Herbert Hock- Kenyon, unheard of since November g, when they left Dundee Island for flight the south polar regions were safe in Little America Two months of hoping against hope Then a flier in airplane sights specks on the ice below In that city wilderness they easily interpreted few hours later the world learns that Ellsworth and his companion are alive and safe The thanks that greet the tdngs mingled with cheers for of the most daring flights in the history of aviation and of the outstanding eats in the his tory of exploration No doubt Ellsworth takes the rescue as a matter of course. Had he not planned it-indicated precisely where he might be found If forced down? Had he not been marooned for three weeks on an Arctic foe after forced landing? Has he not always been the verge of disaster every of his polar flights? Yet to most of his return seems like resurrection.
 Translate this adventure into terms of our Amer ican geography Imagine the United States and Mexico covered with ice and snow. In the interior Chi cago is a place called the South Pole Beyond that starting from New York lies Salt Lake City, the equivalent in distance of the Bay of Whales from the Atlantic Of the intervening region virtually nothing is except that it is swept by bizzards that have been known to SCOUT rusty iron fray wood and toss packing about like paper cartons. There landing fields-nothing but jagged masses of snow, glaciers, crags tall and preciptous in the Rockies. About 2200 miles distant lies the goal-LitLe America, imaginary Salt Lake City. Compared with this perous leap the ice the crossing of the Atlantic is like pleasant excursion on Summer day despite the perils of fog Yet the goal seems to have been reached with birdlike sureness Tens of thousands of square miles of entirely terrain unfolded.
 What the significance of this achievement may be in enabling us to comprehend the relation of the Antarctic continent to South America, Africa and Australiaone of the burning questions of geography and geologyony Ellsworth and the scientists say It is enough that intrepid explorer has been stored to At the moment the human story com- mands attention. Why was the emergency wireless omnously silent during all these anxious weeks? What snowy marvels were revealed during that daring leap into the unknown? And what of the emotions when Little America sighted the last drops of fuel evaporated in the carburetor propulsion ceased and the plane glided down like exhausted bird? An epic of adventure and courage remains to be told. world happily relieved eagerly waits the telling.

NATIONAL INCOME RISES.

We shall not continue to have budgetary de- fcit when the conditions that caused the deficit the reduction in national income, corrected" Chair Mariner Eccles of the Federal Reserve System told the convention of the American Bankers As sociaton. As national income increases and Federal income increases, the need for Government spending decreases-and that is the trend today.
 Speaking a practical business man and banker of more than 20 years experience MT Ecces reminded his banker colleagues that when their 1882 convention held, supposedly sound" fiscal policies were being pursued in effort to balance the budget to maintain the gold standard restore confidence But defation and liquidation intensified. hoarding rapidly breadlines grew the national income fell from more than 80 billions in 1929 to 38 billions in 1882 Fed eral revenue correspondingy diminished, confidence steadily ebbed and chaotic conditions prevailed.
 But beginning in March 1s33 as a result of broad, adequate intervention by the Government, the tide ot deflation turned. At present bankruptcies, which numbered more than 250O0 with liabilities of more than 76O millions for the first nine months of 1852, numbered less than 5000 with liabilities of only ITO milons-a drop of 772 per cent for the same period of 1885 bank failures for the period of 1892 exceeded 1000 with liabilities of nearly 500 millions as compared with 79 bank failures involving 36 millions for the first nine months of l935-and this figure included banks not licensed after the bank holiday of 1883 and since liquidated The turn of the tide of defation brought many other interesting develop ments which alarmistS, now grossly dstorting the Governments spending program have ignored. The salient items pointed out by MT Eccles included the following:
 The national income rose to 50 billions in 1884

Lower Liquor Prices
(New York Times)

(NeW York TimeS)
 When the new trade agreement with Canada went into effect January l. including the reduction by 50 percent of the Federal import tax whisky, there speculation to what its immediate effect would be- It is already evident that it is tremendously n- creasing the importation and withdrawal from bond of imported liquor, not only from Canada but also from other countries because of the most-favored tion policy which made the reduction applicable to other whisky exporting lands.
 The cut in the tax has already reduced retail prices of imported whskes by much 50 cents bottle for Scotch and Sl for Canadian whisky. It has also had the effect of almost ending the smuggling of whisky from Canada and of sharply curtailng smuggling from other countries, although it has yet had little effect upon the smuggling of alcohol which is the chief problem of enforcement officers
 The decrease in prices of Canadian and Scotch whiskies has hastened the fixing of lower prices domestic liquor. The Canadian imports largely of type similar to that made in the United States and so they are brought more directly into competition with domestic brands. AS stocks of matured whisky increase in the United States it is believed that this factor together with Canadian competition, will bring about in 2 reasonably short time lower retail prices than have been announced in the last few days

 Ogden L. Mills Secretary of the Treasury under President Hoover, views with alarm the social impi cations of the New Deal
 "The planners do not think in terms of men as individuals :" he said in Washington the other night They have mechanical conception of society which they view vast mechanism that they can operate all the more readily the the uniformity of the parts and the generally they be forced into definite grooves and channels"
 MT Mills sets us to wondering whether it may not be MT. Roosevelt rather than MT Hoover who is es- teemed eventually to have thought of as indl- viduals.
