The Problem Child.

From the convention of the American
Institute Of Architects in New Orleans
came support yesterday for the view that
the Congressional Commission charged
with creating a 100000 memorial to
Thomas Jefferson ought to incorporate
in its decision the judgment of the Ma
tional Capital Planning Commission as
to site and the Fine Arts Commission As
to design Of the memorial.
1t was pointed out to the architects
that the law creating the Congressional
Commission does not require approval
Of the plans by these two bodies, but 1t
was further stated, with equal truth, that
those two agencies were created Ito deal
with precisely this type OF problem and
are composed OF recognized experts in
their fields, whose opinion would be en-
titled to the most respectful consideration
regardless Of their official position"
AS the matter now stands, there seems
to be no formal report concerning the
contemplated site by the Planning Com
mission which is available to the public
but the Fine Arts group has openly ex-
pressed its opposition to the Pantheon

gressional Commission 1t would seem

wEsTv1LLE, q. 9.

Dear Sir:
Il was glad to note in your column
recently that one 8. M. D. had dared to
speak his mind about grass.
MY acquaintance with grass began at
the end OF hoe in cotton patch. Grass
meant nothing to me then but backachs
and blisters, and hate the pesky
stun yet.
III you want to make Q farmer laugh,
ask him how to make grass grow. While
he is doing his best to destroy this
nuisance. city folks are actually planting
and cultivating 1t!
when I was boy, Jake went to the
State fair and came back and told every
body that city folks plant grass Just
to look at!
"Of course. nobody paid any attention
to him; but when he commenced swear
ing to 1t. they almost turned him out
OF the church.
Il think they would have done 80 II
1t hadn't been for CNis Chris was on
the board and he told the others that
city folks were queer and were always
doing things nobody else would ever
think Of doing.
ITS funny about planting grass. As
8. M. D. says, folks plant 1t, and they
tertilize 1t, and they manicure 1t to
death. In my opinion. grass is like
whiskers. If you are going to have 1t,
you ought to let 1t grow: II you aren't
going to have it, you shouldn't leave q
stubble
Barring q hedge. q lawn Is about the
most unnatural thing there is 1t
wouldn't be 50 bad II folks would Just
let the dandelions 60 ahead and grow
In IT.. I have no more use for one OF
these pests than the other, but l think
they might as well grow up together.
Not long ago I saw = big patch Of
grass IN a city. There were bare places
IN 1t, marking out q diamond where
boys had been playing ball. But some
one had come along and put up signs
saying No Ball Playing And there
were other signs sticking around saying
Keep On the Grass Now doesn't that
beat anything you ever heard Of! You
disagreed with 8. NJ D., 50 I know you
won't hold with me.
Very truly yours" etc.
City folks, Of course, don't grow cotton
So what are they going to do with
that patch?

who wanted effects just for the sake OF
"looks" was making an attack upon them.
Al their children went to high schools
and colleges, they In time received an
other idea. so that today in all OF the
small towns Of our great and far
stretched land and on many OF the farms,
too, the visitor will find a great use Of
ornamental plants just for the sake OF
beauty.
The lawn has such a place in the
American scene, probably, because the
English were and are such lovers of good
sward.
When they established their colonies,
one Of the first things they did, after
cutting down the trees, was to make
lawns.
Cultured grass was a sort Of symbol
OF law and order, a sure sign that some
men, at least. had an opportunity to do
more than grub for living.
There seems to be deep tendency in
all men to laugh first at any way which
Is not their way. Unless carried to an
extreme, this is q wholesome attitude.
1t means that the new must first prove
itself and do good Job Of 1t, too, before
1t Is accepted. The danger, OF course,
comes in resisting innovation too long.
Country and small town habits flow
squarely out OF country and small town
living.
City habits, in their turn, are the results
Of city living.
Put country people into the CITY,
they Immediately become more "citifed"
than the native residents This is a
common phenomenon. Every one knows
OF such cases.
The city lawn and the suburban hedge
are attempts to brighten sidewalks and
brick walls, and who is there, living in
Washington at this season, who would
say that they are not successful attempts?
The evils that men do live behind them
In the form OF cities. This is the theme
Of new books. in which the growth of
cities is held up to the reader as a not
unmitigated blessing
Blighted areas-we are hearing more
and more Of these, in the discussions of
cities. Every one who has lived in
great city for any length Of time knows
what the term means.

The well-kept lawn is sign of civic

The neatly trimmed hedge is a sure

Those who enjoy both, and are willing
to work for them. need apologize to no
one, any more than the cotton planter
need apologize for not wanting grass
where 1t should not be.
Both attitudes arise out of natural
conditions, one as much so as the other.
Tolerance, the most difficult of human
virtues, demands that we always try to
understand the other fellows viewpoint,
in small matters as in large.
Every grass plot, every neat hedge,
helps by just that much to keep a city
from going all city and hence becoming

With these two major issues disposed
OF, 1t is unlikely that the conferees will
be unduly delayed over other differing
provisions In the two versions Of the
legislation. 1t is certainly to be hoped
that completion Of their task will be
accomplished speedily, that both the
House and Senate will accept the judg-

Progress by Compromise.

With due consideration for the expedi-
encies OF politics-which should not but
frequently do play an important part in
the lawmaking of a democracy-there is
reason to feel considerable degree Of
satisfaction with the compromise reached
late yesterday by the conferees on the
Revenue Act of 1898.
After ten-day deadlock during which
there loomed the possibility OF presiden-
tial veto and no modification of the
present onerous provisions for taxing
capital gains and undistributed corporate
profits, concessions have been made
which eliminate the most Objectionable
features of each.
True, the principle Of the undistributed
profits tax is to be retained. but with a
spread Of only az per cent its penalty
range has been reduced to "a shadow Of
its former self" Furthermore, and Of
most encouraging significance, the ex-
tension Of the principle definitely is
limited to two years with its automatic
expiration to come at the end Of 1899
unless new Congress should re-enact
it. In view Of experience over the past
two years such re-enactment is exceed
ingly unlikely.
Sharing importance in notifications
contemplated in the pending measure is
that relating to treatment of long term
capital gains. On this issue the Senate
conferees gained almost complete VIC

out of ordinary income and apply 4

Spending Billions Not
Right Way to Recovery
70 the Editor OF The Star:

to drift to the brink of disaster-through

What is the greatest need today? The
answer is q chorus. unemployment!
While this condition remains neglected,
Nero's fiddle has not been lost to history
1t IS in the possession of the New Deal
and Is still in working order.
What are the means available to
achieve this end. Several.
l. Restore encouragement to industry
and private enterprise by q long grange
hands-oh policy. Revive no future threat
Of crazy impositions like the excess
profits and capital gains taxes, unless
duplication Of present conditions is
sought.
2. Assist the railroads out Of the red
and OH the rocks. This is q recovery
essential. BY big subsidies, increased
rates guarantees Of bond interest? EN-
phatically, no. The whole New Deal is
. monument to the futility of that kind
Of handout methods. Undo the cause
Of the chief damage; discard the fetish
now gripping Roosevelt that wage boosts
voted last year are too sacred to tamper
with. Then suspend-it is not necessary
to abolish-the pay increases granted
last August. Wage scales would still
remain. The help would still be we'll
paid. and further unemployment in the
ranks stemmed. Sacred New Deal prin-
ciples would remain intact more so, at
least, than New Deal prosperity.
No multiple billions spending programs
such as those advocated by the liberals
and variegated Roosevelt advisers will
ever ensure recovery. A more gradual.
soundly based improvement, under aus
pices of a less hampered industry, is
preferable to another dose of that.

attest, the people don't want more bill

Protests Spending Orgy
AS Cause of Recession.

To the Editor Of The star:
How long must the taxpayers of the
country put up with the orgy Of spending
Of other peoples money by the repre-
sentative Government now ut Washing
ton? It is all a game Of rotten politics
and 1t is time that the voters Of the
United States unite to elect men Of
sound business principles, instead OF
machine men, ward heelers or other
more or less obnoxious party men, who
fight for the place just for what they
can get out Of 1t and not for the best
interests Of the country as q whole, or
even the people they now represent.
There Is no business on the face oi
the earth conducted on the lines Of
our present Government during the
past few years that could survive for
any length Of time. No more can this
Government survive II continued on
these lines And something should and
must be done If we are to continue to
prosper and grow as we have In the past.
We have everything that We had before
1929 except work for our workers. Why?
My guess Is that we have too much
regulation, pump pruning. reg1menta-
ton. high taxes, coordination, poor
uo0e o6lCciucutc, VI NAy OCAAcI tcIHl yOU
wish to apply.
Why not buy Americana Who buys
all the manufactured goods imported
from countries under poor trade agree
ments and made by cheap labor, while
our workers are idle?
Under Government regulations, look
at our railroads. Thirty-five are now
either bankrupt. in receivership or In
our courts for reorganization.
What has the National Bituminous
Coal Commission accomplished, with q
salary roll Of approximately $4,000, 900
per annum?
And these representatives OF the
people, who cannot conduct their busi-
ness without going in the red to the
extent Of $4,000, 900 900, are the men
who would dictate, abuse, overtax and
try to tell the successful big business
men and concerns how they should run
their business. Better negate everything
done in the past 10 years and start from
scratch and see II they cannot do q
better Job and let business men run
business.
Another matter that should be COR
rected at once is the 20 cents mileage
paid our representatives for many years.
They receive about three times as much
as Is paid in England for similar or
better work. Let them pay their own
fares. If they wish to abide by stage
coach days in travel expense of 20 cents
per mile, then let them conduct other
business as it was done in those days
and save the taxpayers money.
The first "billion-dolla Congress" was
less than 80 years back and there Is
no good reason why it should be eight
times as much now. Is there a member
OF either house Of Congress who. II
conducting business Of his own. would
allow 20 cents per mile travel expense
for any Of his staff? He would not!
Due to the extra session. this will cost
the taxpayers approximately half a
million dollars. which could be saved.
Personally, I would not vote for
member of the House or Senate, or the
President. either, until that mileage and
other rackets are repealed and until thev
get back to some sane way Of conducting
the Affairs Of our Government.
