SCHOOL CHILDREN AND THE
SAFETY PROBLEM

Summer vacations are practically
over, and children are returning to
the various schools throughout our
county and State.
One of the biggest problems that
these children will face upon their
return to school is that of preparing
themselves for their Sdult tasks of
competing successfully in the bus
mess world.
One of the biggest problems also
facing the child is that of getting
safely from home to school, and
school to home. 1t is a problem, the
solution of which, requires the
whole-hearted support of all persons,
particularly motorists.
According to Accident Facts, a
statistical publication released by the
National Safety Council, there were
fewer accidental deaths among
children from to IA years in 1887
than in any year since 1913. This
national decline occurred in spite of
a % per cent increase in the number
of children and considerable adj
vance in accident hazards through
the growth of motor vehicle traffic.
This decline in accidents among
children is attributed in large part
to the various educational safety
campaigns conducted in the schools,
as we'll as elsewhere, which have
emphasized the necessity for alert
ness and caution at all times, and
a thorough Installing into the mind
of the child scrupulous observance
Of safety regulations looking to the
protection Of pedestrians along our
auto crowded highways. :.

FEDERAL FUNDS AIDING
114.OOO In MARYLAND

Federal Government funds going
into Maryland contribute directly to
the support of approximately 114,-
900 residents of the State, survey
of Federal departments and agen-
cies has disclosed.
This total includes Government
employees receiving salaries, WPA
workers and benefit and assistance
payments to such groups as farmers,
dependent children and the INDECENT
aged. The Federal payments range
from regular monthly checks to an
nual sums.
In some instances, as in the case OF
the public assistance programs OF the
Social Security Board, payments
actually are made by the State, al
though half of the amount thus paid
comes from the Federal Treasury.
Not included in the above total are
the approximately $4,000 Maryland
ers receiving unemployment COM
pensation payment, since this is re-
garded as State function.
According to the census estimate
of 1885, Maryland's population IS
1,669,OOO. Thus the approximately
114,OOO individuals being aided nm
ancially by the Federal Government
constitute approximately one-fifteen-
tn of the States population, More
over, with the exception OF such SOC
ial security payments as aid to de-
pendent children, in most instances
the Federal payments go to the sup
port of entire families, so that the
number of individuals benettlng
from the payments is estimated at
between 100000 and 100000.
Unofficial but closely checked
survey show that throughout the
nation nearly 100000 individuals
are receiving funds from the Feoer-
al Treasury.

THE GOOD NEIGHBOR FLEET
J. E. Jones

Washington, d. c., Sept. 5-The
twenty-one Republics and the Do
miniin of Canada have lived side by
side as good neighbors, and become
strong, magnificent and impregnable
as the New world has progressed in
peace-even as parts of the Old
World have reverted time and again
to war.
The United States Maritime Com
mission has elected as its Number
One responsibility to provide fast,
comfortable and efficient steamboat
service for the avowed purpose of
expanding commercial and neigh
borly intercourse between the Amer
icas-to strengthen the Americas for
Americans.
Admiral Emory s. Land, Chair
man of the United State Maritime
Commission, has just announced that
the plan for the establishment Of
fast modern steamship service to
countries on the East coast of South
America will become reality in
lew WEEKS WHICH, tuO oOAtACC lAdu6 VI
ated by the Maritime Commission
will be started with the sail of the
Brazil from New York. The Uruguay
and Argentina will complete the
Good Neighbor Fleet under fixed
sailing schedules. The three ships
were formerly Panama Pacific liners
and they have been thoroughly re-
conditioned and QUILTED for the
new luxury service to the countries
below the equator.
In the establishment of the new
liner service to the East Coast Of
South America, the Maritime Com
mission states that it has three OBJ
jectives:
One is to promote and facilitate
trade between all the Americas. The
Three Republics below the equator
which the fleet will directly serve
are already among our best custom
ers, as we are among their best Gus
toners.
The second objective is to promote
travel. Good Neighbors should see
one another, so that they may better
know one another.
Third objective is natural pro-
duct of the other two. 1t is to pro-
mote the good will and friendly re-
lationships that spring naturally
from acquaintance.

GAMBLING PROPOSAL DEFEAT
ED IN NEW YORK STATE
CONVENTION
CONVENTION

The New York State Constitution
al Convention on August 18th, again
rejected a proposal OF Henry Hlr-
schburg, District Attorney of Orange
County, to remove the ban on gam
bling from the State Constitution.
The proposal was brought up in the
form of an amendment precludlng
the state from ever conducting OF
supervising lottery. This peculiar
amendment was beaten-63 to "a
and in it's original form, 55 to So.
The vote showed clear majority
of 80, In which the opinion OF COM
petent observers is safe margin
to kill the proposal in this Con-
stitution Convention.
Some five week ago the effort to
wipe out the Constitutional ban ON
gambling was defeated So to 70.
A majority of the Democrats voted
for the proposal to lift the ban and
majority of the Republicans voted
to retain it.
Selfish motives engendered by
greed for profits in both the liquor
and gambling business plus the de-
sire to satisfy certain artificial ap-
petites is the basis of the argument
for os-called realism which the sup
porters of these things advance in
behalf of their cause. What a social
ly putrid cause they espouse, so subs
tantiatad throughout it's whole
history.

HIGH SCHOOL CHILDREN AND
THE RADIO

Many parents are alarmed over
the time given by their children to
radio during school days, and not
few of them to the character OF mat
ter to which they listen. A recent
survey of some 988 boys and girls
in New York high school revealed
that, on an average, they devoted
two hours and five minutes day to
the radio and only an average or
one hour an 20 minutes daily to
reading. Presumably the two hours
are spent listening to the general
run of radio script and music, much
of which is on a low plane"
When it is considered that the
average high school pupil attends
the movies twice week, thus spend
ing possibly 1914 to Is hours per
week on both kinds of indoor amuse-
ments, our young people are getting
little constructive matter upon which
to build good health or successful
career. 1t is not the kind OF material
listened to over the radio and seen
on the screen alone that is objection
able. Young people need amusements
which will take them into the open
spaces for fresh air and sufficient
exercise.
It has been suggested by educa-
tors and parents that the time now
devoted to the radio and the screen
by the rising generation could be
much more profitably used in read
ing well-selected material and at ath-
letics. This will continue to be true
even if the screen and the radio be-
come cleaner and more elevating.
While the eye and the ear are
great inlets of knowledge, there is
little time for the mind to digest or
criticize what it perceives over the
radio and on the screen. Reading
affords these opportunities.
Some of this time might also be
used to advantage for religious
training, which many are insisting
should be given in the public schools,
but which educators say is rather in
the province of the home.
Education by the radio is yet
far from developed field. The pro-
cess in adopting it to class room
work or home work is slow'and Will
remain so until the radio is used
for other than commercial purposes
and until means are provided Tor lts
fuller educational use.

FIRST AND SECOND CHOICE
VOTE

Monday next, Sept. IL, is the date
for the primary election. On the
Democratic State primary ticket
there are four gubernatorial candl-
dates, three candidates for the U. 5.
Senate, four for the office of At

troller of the Treasury. The law IN
this instance provides for trst
and second choice vote. The voter
may express his preference OF canol-
dates by marking his ballot Tor MS
first choice and also for his second
choice, but it is interesting to note
that if two of more candates are
voted for as first choice, and none
for second choice, the ballot is not
counted for any candidate Ior
either first or second choice.
If two or more candidates are
voted for as second choice, and no
candidate is voted for as first choice,
the ballot is not counted for any
candidate for either first or second
choice.
IL the SAINT EdAu1uoIO 10 AAesA ~
ed as both first and second choice
the ballot will be counted for the
candidate for first choice only. 1t
will not be counted at all for second
choice.
If a ballot is marked for one
candidate for second choice and no
candidate is voted for as first choice,
the ballot will be counted for hrst
choice, and not for second choice.
If two or more candidates are
voted for as first choice and one
candidate for second choice, the bal
lot will not be counted for any can
didate for either first or second
choice.
II ballot is marked for one can
didate for first choice, and two or
more candidates for second choice,
the ballot will be counted for
the candidate for first choice only.

WAR AND WAR DEBTS

England and France expect to
negotiate, perhaps directly with
President Roosevelt, about their war
debts. Washington learns that these
two old Allies of ours will pay up
their interest and make some furth-
er slight concessions SO that they
will not be ON the black list-as
provided in laws of the United States
against lending money to delinquent
debtor nations.
The Canadian speech of President
Roosevelt was different from what
Washington expected.

PRIMARY TIMES ARE QUARREL
SOME TIMES

1t is only natural that there
should be bitter feeling in connec-
ton with the State primaries,
especially as President Roosevelt has
been engaged in '..purging" in many
Of the States. The President insists
that he. is trying to carry out the
party program and policies.
Everybody knows what other
people are saying about this adj
venture of the head of the Admin
istration into State affairs. Past ex-
periences remind us that primary
times are always quarrelsome times.

Communists

There seems to be no question
but what there are more communists
in the United States than there is
room for them. The question of
what's to be done about it remains
unsolved.
Communism was definitely to
blame for the notorious rounds of
seamen's strikes ON the West Coast,
and for the spread of communism
ON eastern seaboard and among
American ships at sea. President
Homer Martin, of the automobile
unions is right now trying to get
rid of officials in his own admins
tration whom he says are COM
munists.
Admitting that every person has
a right to think as he pleases The
fact remains that doctrine like com
munism cannot be permitted to rule
Americas affairs.
