fl so, there may arise an over
whelming popular desire to have the
President for a third term-by folk
who. fear Fascism or reaction.
No one knows. The northwest trip
may prove epochal, as indicating the
trend. a.s - 4.
Our own belief is that the President
will not accept a third term. That is
why he is putting on the pressure
now. He desires the New Deal pro-

New Deal PoIlydnnas But no
Fighting Generals Adninistrd-
ton Suddenly ShOUs Some Fight

WASHINGTON-The administrations chle1
handicaps in the court fight have been lack
of fighting generals in the senate and super
fluity of pollyannas in the top ranks, not omit
ting the president.
Some of the generals have begun to
show fight and the fury of their sudden onslaught
ON behalf of the Hatch compromise which would
mean at least three Roosevelt appointments o1
Supreme Court justices by January, Temporarily
set the opposition back on its heels.
The actual objective of present tactics, al
though YOU won't find anyone admitting TINS
is a cloture, requiring a two-third vote which
would place limit on senate debate and thus
kill off the anticipated filibuster.
There is a rather general feeling now that
the proposed flbuster will net last long although
this may prove to be wishful thinking
Pro-administration leaders are proceeding on
the theory-or at least on the hope-that they
can get a clotlre after the opposition talks two
or three weeks. Since the administration claims
only small majority for the compromise piah'
this would mean that eight or ten senators op-
posed to the plan would have TO agree TO vote TO
end the fiibuster
Opposition leaders don't believe that can be
achieved, but the heat will be terrific IN more
ways than one Inc administration believes
that sufficient opposing senators can be perSuao-
ed to absent themselves or to take the position
that the issue should come to a vote, and that
they consequently will vote for the cloture.
Every effort is being made by administrator
forces to isolate dozen or more members as men
disloyal to their party and the president, lnclud-
ing most of the seven who signed the StnglnS
adverse report OF the judiciary committee on
the original Justice bill, and other opponents
such as Wheeler of Montana.
The attempt is being made to hold them up
as political pariahs traitors working IN secret
with Republicans, and as ungrateful, AMBITIOUS
men seeking to humiliate a party idol WHO IS
tie friend of the people. The implied threat Is
that the president and his friends in this flght
are ready for purge" of "disloyal Democrats
which is exactly in line with what Roosevelt mas
been saying privately for weeks.
Opposition strategy has been fully disclosed
in announcements of elaborate tatlcS for filbuSter
It may be that the threats have been Stra-
tegic error such as sometimes is made by giving
away plans TO the enemy, and it may be that op-
position leaders claimed a partially fictitious
strength.
There is a chance that the administration
will try to shove bill through the house which
would give the president somewhat more OF
victory than is represented in the Robinson
Hatch-Logan bill in the senate-to which Roose-
welt hasn't yet committed himself.

MORE COMFORT FROM
THE CANALS POWER

Imperial Valley, looking forward to
the reality of hydro-electric energy from
the All American canal, should read with
interest the words of Carl d. Thompson,
writing editorially in the July Public
Ownership magazine about air condition
ing for American homes.
"The next great movement in the
field of electrical service" says Mr..
Thompson, lis in air cooling and con-
ditioning. In some respects it may be the
creates of all. It certainly will contri-
butte more to human comfort in all hot
climates than any other phase of electric
service"
After reviewing the benefits of air
cooling, which are too well known in I'M
perial Valley to need repetition, Mr..
Thompson goes on:
And the beauty of it is that this
immeasurable blessing, this great COM
fort. is now within our reach-indeed
within the reach of all. All may now
have this comfort, as well as all the other
innumerabe conveniences of electrical
service.
But not of course at 10 cents a dlo-
watt hour. Nor even at five cents or four.
Nor is it possible with our present
limited supply of electric power.
"There isn't enough of it yet, and the
cost is too high.
ITO create an abundance of electric
power-almost unlimited supplies; and
to run the cost down to one cent per kilo
watt hour, even to one-half cent or less;
and to have enough and at low enough
rates so that everybody, in the country
as we'll as in the city, and in the homes
of the poor as well as the rich may enjoy
air conditioning along with other electri-
cal conveniences-that is the object the
goal of the public power movement in
America today"
How fortunate is Imperial Valley!
We can now look forward to those con-
ditions set forth by Mr.. Thompson as
ideal We only need good management
and continued success against private
interests-to assure our valley of these
electrical conveniences.

fled in political democracy and the
theory of human equality.
In other words, it is not yet toe
late for us to turn away from thl7
drift toward the blind belief that
might make right. And we can best
do it by reminding ourselves con-
stantly of the fact that continued
confidence in our democratic pro-
cesses is our one and only defense
For a confidence in democracy
is nothing less than a confidence
in the inherent decency and sanity
of the human race. We rely on mai
Gritty rule, peaceful persuasion ano
open debate because we believe
that in the long run men have
the good sense and the good will to
make such things work.
That is why these resorts tc
violence in our own land are sc
cminous. To the extent that they
take place. that confidence OF our.
is broken down; and to the eX-
tent that it is broken down, tht
strength of our democracy is les
sened. We are a long way from

insist on peaceful settlements ant

we are headed in the direction o.

TAXES THE NON-TAXPAYER
PAYS EVERY MONTH

A large life insurance company, IN
a survey begun in November, 1885, gives
figures taken from the confidential files
of 2O6 concerns of every kind to prove
that the man who thinks he does not pay
taxes has another guess coming.
Persons with an income of 5000
month pay an average of 12.4 per cent
of their wages each month in the form
of taxes. the survey discloses. That is,
if you are earning 5000 a month, you
pay S24S7 each month in indirect taxes.
If you own a home or other property
on which you pay direct taxes, the bill
must be added to the S24.87. If you
pay an income tax or any other direct
tax. that. too, must be added.
On an $50 monthly income, the aver
age paid in indirect taxes is 1857, or II
per cent. Out of an income of $50
month, the average indirect tax bill is
S1910 a month.
For every dollars worth of bread
you buy you pay Ga cents in tax; for
dollars worth of beef, 8.14 cents; for
pork, 804 cents; for sugar, 1873 cents,
and so on.
The man who believes that he is i'm
mune from taxation, or that higher fed
eral or state taxes do not touch his IN
come. should study these figures. 1t
costs money for government, and that
money is obtained by the government IN
a lot of different ways, which is all the
more reason for the "man in the street
to work for governmental economy.

NEW YORK, July Is. - Every
large metropolitan hotel must deal
with what are known as H. G'S"-
hysteria guests. They are patrons
who suffer from minor delusions
but appear perfectly normal in
casual contacts. In reality, they
are the rich, petted and spoiled.
One middle-aged lady in lower
5th avenue hotel has a germ phobia
She insists that maids and walters
who serve her wear ruboer gloves
and after each departs she sprays
the entire apartment with an an
tiseptic from a huge atomizer. Pass
ing through the hotel to her car
she wears a gauze mask.
There are also several who insist
there shall be no other passengers
on elevators in which they ride
And there are still others who wi
not ride in an elevator under any
circumstances and refuse to live
above the first floor. Thus they
NAV walk. Also people who must
be screened off, dining in public.
In one of the small but exclusive
hotels is a young heiress, whose
college love affair turned out badly,
who rents the apartments on either
side and across the hall but does
not use them. Hotels indulge such
phobieas because these people pay
for their quirks and are invariably
well behaved.

We have had the age OF stone
the age of brass. the age OF iron
and the age of this, that and other
things: but when future historians
come to write about this particular
era in world history, they can
hardly do anything else than call
it the age of violence.
That is to say that it is a time
in which men seem to have given
up the old notion that disputes
could be settled by reason and COM
promise. When nerves are over
strained and the old faith in hu-
man intelligence is low, it is easier
to sail in with fists flying than to
sit down and talk thing out.

local news items are accorded gen.
