EXPERT APPRAISAL OF WAGE BILL

Dr. Charles Frederick Roos was formerly re-
search director of the NRA.
Recently he wrote an article for Rural Progress
Magazine, giving his appraisal of the pending
Black -Connery BILL He describes the measure as
"a brake industry plague on agriculture, a
calamity for labor and blight on recovery"
Beyond that he seems to have found nothing
seriously wrong with the measure, but he elaborat-
ed slightly in listing his chief objections follows
l. 1t will increase rather than decrease unem-
ployment.
2. 1t will decrease the production of distributa-
Bile wealth and lower the average standard of liv-
ing.
3. 1t will decrease the consumption Of raw ma
terials, including farm products, and lower the
prices received for them, catching the farmer be-
tween the rising cost of living expenses and the
curtaed price for his own commodity.
But "the president wants it, and therefore the
Democratic congressman, even from tn eagricul-
tural South, must vote for it-or viii they?
The more one learns of the measure, the more
easy it is to understand why New England Repub-
lcans like Senator Lodge are enthusiastic for it.
Why should southern Democrats vote with New
England Republicans on measure of the nature
of the Black -Connery bll?-Charlotte Observer

Ere long, of a certainty, the people of this

of the poet Keats on first looking into Chapmans S
Homer-'like some watcher of the skies when a
new planet swims into his ken :. with wild sur
mise, silent :. :" Planets nor Pacifis nor poetry
will be the explanation of breathlessness; on
the contrary, it will be nothing less commonplace
than fgure-an astronomical figure, to be sure,
yet for all that only string of numerals placed
one after the other.
Like some watcher of the mileage of an auto
mobile speedometer, a new digit in the Treasury s
daily statement will soon swim into our ken. 1t
will be in place of 6, which would be rela-
lively of no moment were it not that the success
sion will occur ten places to the left of the decimal
point which is to say in the billions The amount
of the gross federal debt, now $36S12, ,65S,Sl7 so
early in this new fiscal year, is heading inevitably
to 81 billions and something, and unless change
sets in, it will head straight thereafter for 3S bill
hons. And something
Since this is ride upon which the American
people are being taken without their consent or
approval, we know of nothing for them to do but
to sing out in concert, Hold on, everybody; here

NEWSPAPERS OPINIONS
HAVE THE MoBS A MANDATE?

For nearly an hour the neighborhood reverbe-
rated with strike slogans, denunciations of the
company (the Horn and Hardart Automat COM
pany) and of employees remaining at work, and
demands to the police to keep hands off, The
police did keep hands off, They merely kept the
demonstrators moving around in a long, winding
circle :. Many customers left the places hurried
ly and few ventured to enter while picketing and
shaking of fists at employees inside were in prog
ress Adjacent theaters and restaurants likewise
felt the effects of the demonstrations and were
relieved when the pickets moved away. The DEM
onstratons attracted large crowds which disorgan-
lied pedestrian and vehicuiar traffic"
In short there riotous conduct unaccompa-
MED by killing and shooting in Times Square, New
York, while Mayor LaGuardia's police he being a
Roosevelt Republican, looked on complacently The
description of the scene is from The New York
Times.
Would it not be wise for the legislature of New
York state to pass an act making riots and dis
mob or another is the de facto government in New
York City-and in many other cities. Would it
not be as we'll to recognize the mobs as legitimate?
We're that done persons who wish to work and who
are denounced, at whom fists are shaken, might
denounce and shake their fists. Evidence is con-
stantly increasing that the rule Of the mob is popu
lar in the big towns, that the mobs feel that they
have mandate" from the people to run amuck
Self-government communities which believe in the
right of riot and the propriety of disorder should
legalize them-Charleston News and Courier.

believe it is necessary to go on manipulate
ing and controlling. Artificial methods al
ready applied make necessary, it seems,
the continued application of artificial
methods and the adoption of additional
schemes as the years pass.
Thus it is certain, that instead OF circum-
venting economic laws and changing the
natural course of the universe, the cotton
schemers are being rapidly swallowed by
their grandiose plans to remake the cotton
business according to methods which are
absolutely fallacious.

WlLLFUL WASTE

IN advocating limit of $4,000 on each home to
be built under the Wagner low:cpst housing act
Senator Byrd of Virginia said that the Resettie-
ment Administration had spent $16,1S2 on each
unit at "Tugwelltown,' housing project in Mary
land
"It is" he declared, a willful waste of money
such as has never occurred before in any civilized
country of the world"

Guatemala'S greatest volcanoes

forth a deluge Of water which

This was in l54l.
Guatemala, on its present site,
was founded following an earth
quake which in 1878 destroyed
the older capital. The government
was formally transferred to this
location in 1879. Laid out at an
altitude of 4877 feet above the sea
en- a virtually isolated tableland,
the city. in the opinion of its
founders, would be safe from
earthquakes.
This hope was blasted, how
ever, one year after founding
whe.I a heavy tremor shook the
area. and in l9l7-l8 the city was
virtually razed by a series of
earthquakes. The site was not
abandoned, however, and the
