After long experience in watch
ing many motor gadgets and aces
series fail to live up to their claims,
only those devices which can abso-
lutely prove beforehand that they
work deserve mention. Such one
is the differential dual wheel, made
ait present for use by trucks, buses
and trailer., with possibilities for
into the pleasure car
field. 1t differs from the rigid dual
combination in that both wheels OF
the pair are so attched that each
one can revolve at its own rate OF
speed and on its own are In turn.
At the same time it fits all stand
ard axles. This differential feature
results in the elimination OF un-
necessary fractional dray which III
turn leads to economies in vehicle
operation and to greater safety. The
savings are made possible by an
increase of up to 500 per cent IN
the life of tire treads and de-
crease in gas consumption as much
as twenty per cent. Greater safety
is due to the lesser chances OF
blow-outs, jackknifing and sklddlng'
The Fruehauf Trailer Company, IN
this case. was two steps ahead OF
the field and was the first to jump
at this invention. AS a result, II

Librarian Confirmed

Archibald MacLeish, soldier, lawyer,
teacher and man of letters, has been
confirmed by the Senate as Librarian
OF Congress. He passed through the
ordeal following nomination by
President Roosevelt with credit to
himself and to his friends. Not
even the organized protest of the
American Library Association could
stop him on his way to the most
important position of its kind in the
United States. He enters upon the
first public Office he ever has held
with the good wishes of his critics
as we'll as those who approved his
selection at the start.
There are, certainly, many reasons
why Mr.. MacLeish deserves general
support in the work he now is to do.
His own gifts of distinction and
charm never have been challenged.
He is, frankly, likable individual.
One of his most notable character
istics is power Of adjustment which
will stand him in excellent stead.

i Sometimes they seem to Hart right in
front OF windshields, SO close that the
observer holds his breath, but always
they come out on the other side.
We have watched them in the earlv
morning, hopping around in the old car
track, seeking stray seeds and the like
which have blown onto the roadway.
These are invisible to human eyes, but
very plain to bird eyes.
The birds will wait until q car is
almost on top OF them before flying up.
Usually they seem to barely clear the
radiator, but no doubt they allow them
selves plenty of room
On the other hand, scores of birds are
killed by automobiles. The robin, both
adult and young, seems to be among the
greatest sufferers in this respect. We
do not know whether it is because they
are slow or clumsy or lacking in bird
intelligence. The admirer of birds will
often stop to wonder how they manage
to get along with modern inventions as
we'll as they do, especially the automo-
biles. Perhaps it is because their own
natural speed is almost on a par with
that of the modern car Dogs and cats
and rabbits and squirrels, when con-
fronted by modern mechanical speeds,
are at loss, because their own rate of
travel is so much less. Birds, on the
otner hand, are used to going fast them
selves, and so have no trouble making
instructive judgments as to the speed of
other moving objects
~ ~
Perhaps there are not as many birds
In any given tract as we sometimes tend
to think there are. but at that the Won
der is how they all manage to get along
together as we'll as they do, for they are
all IN competition with one another for
the food available close by, especially at
nesting time, when it is apparent shat
tne parent birds cannot make very long
trips to find tid-bits. What they get
must be close at hand, for they must
make incessant trips. Often the feeding
goes on for at least three weeks. The
Weaning OF the babies evidently is not
easy IN many species the young clamor
to be fed long after they are able to
rustic up grub for themselves. At least
this is the way 1t strikes an observer.
The first process in feeding the fledgling
is stufflng one, the youngster not vet
having got onto the instructive reflexes
OF swallowing. After that it learns to
seize the worm or other delicacy, and
swallow it for itself. Later it is taught
or learns from imitation, how to find
food for itself. Still it hates to make this
step. which makes it independent of its
parents for life. Here the parent birds
no doubt play the major role by ulti-
mately refusing to feed it, requiring it,
for its own good, to go on its own.
The number of fights between the
various groups of birds is surprisingly
small That was why the alteration
between the catbirds and cardinals at
tracted SO much attention. Things have
been quleter on this front during the
past few days, SO we hope the war is over.

Admittedly, he has much to learn;
but, it is equally true that he is
possessed of capacity to acquire the
knowledge he will need. During his
apprentice period he has DR.. Herbert
Putnam, Librarian Emeritus, avail
able for consultation. Other men,
bers OF the staff and not a few
"outsiderS'' gladly will help.
OF course, the task is difficult. It
would be a grave error to imagine
that MIR. MacLeish is assuming a
slnecure. Every great institution is
the heightened shadow of a great
personality; and, realizing this, the
new Librarian will wish to apply
himself to his duties with ardor, en-
thusiasm and an. honorable desire
to justify the fullest measure of
confidence in his efficiency and zeal.

Welcomes Confirmation of
MacLeish as Librarian.

To the Editor of The Star:
Hail, and twice hail to the new libra
rian Of Congress, Archibald MacLeish!
letter in your columns from w How
ard Chase takes the position that Mac
Leish. whatever his talents as poet and
a writer, is not trained librarian and,
therefore. not qualified for the job.
That is precisely the reason why he is
qualified for it. OF course. there are
exceptions to all rules, but in the main
it has been my experience that Librarians
as a class are hopelessly rlired in an
intellectual rut. They live think and
breathe by rote. If that is the kind of
man Mr.. Chase wants for the one library
job in America that requires tremendous
vision, courage and common sense, then
naturally Mr.. MacLeish disappoints him.
l am not acquainted with the new
librarian, although I have read some of
his lnterpretatlve articles on big busi-
ness which appeared in Fortune. Never
theless. in the preparation of recently
published book of mine, had to do re-
oSoA SiA AL 11OI al III oil parts Oh tle
country, and I found that as a profess
sional group, despite exceptions-mostly
found at the Library of Congress itself
librarians are not only not open to sug-
gestions for improvement, but regard
such suggestions with something akin to
horror
I do not blame them Perhaps if I
were librarian, would sink into the
same intellectual rut. I am inclined to
believe that when one constantly deals
with the outside, rather than the inside,
of books and when this process slips into
routine, something happens to ones
imagination. Originality is stifled: books
become commodities, as articles in a S.
and-lO-cent store, and the capacity for
thought-constructive thinking-falls by
the wayside.
Mr.. MacLeish has not been affected by
this virus. He is bold, courageous, a
man of vision.

Opposes Redistribution
OF Wealth Theories.
To the Editor of The Star;


William Allen White wrote: I'm every
civilization there is a moronic under
world which can be taught to read and
write but not to think, and lives on the
level of it's emotions" 1t is unfortunate
that so many worthy people vainly
imagine that poverty can be legislated
away and thatthrough redistribution
of wealth" an Utopian state can be
established. When an individual for
sakes emotion and resorts to reason he
generally becomes aware that until ideas
can be redistributed it is almost fatuous
to advocate the redistribution of money.
After all, one cannot transfer ideas of
caution and conservatism from balanced
minds to those filled with wasteful
tendencies.
The great Eugene Debs once admitted
that the vast majority of Socialists would
forsake their ideas of sharing wealth
If by any chance they inherited any.
The world must emerge from its present
jungle state before anything that ap-
proximates social justice is established
In the meanwhile, let us face this fact
and cease indulging in illusory dreams
that, despite New Deal theorizing, have
failed to materialize.

On the Credit Side

The signing by President Roosevelt
OF the corporate tax revision meas
ure undoubtedly sounded the death
knell for one of the most unfortunate
and thoroughly discredited expert
ments in taxation that has been
attempted in the country's history,
namely, the levy on undistributed
corporate profits.
Punitive in effect and actually a
detriment to- corporate thrift, the
tax not only demonstrated lack of
merit as revenue raiser but un-
questionably was a factor in creating
the psychology of timidity and un-
certainty which now characterize
the capital markets and the stagna-
ton of investment. It's termination
and replacement by flat corporate
income tax must be recorded on the
side of constructive achievements by
the present session of Congress.
Indeed, with other desirable re-
visions contained in this same piece
OF legislation, plus measure already
approved by which reciprocal taxa
tlon of public salaries is authorized
and modification of social security
taxes apparently near final enact
ment, the record of the Congress
with regard to improving the tax
structure is fully worthy of COM
mendation.
To this record may be added, also,
current studies by committees of both
the House and the Senate of legis-
latlon to authorize reciprocal taxa
ton OF income from future issues of
public securities and to effect a re-
ductlon in the present confiscatorv
surtax schedule in the upper brackets.
There is reason to believe that
both studies will be consummated bv
the acceptance of legislation in the
second session of the present Con-
gress. If such is the case. there
should be reflection in the form of
greater revenues and improved busi-
ness sentiment for which those who
have taken the tax reform leader
ship may assume a full measure of
credit.

lines he wrote, full of philosophy, and
Old Man Gloom he soundly soaked and
chased him far from me- And often
when Dame Fortune frowned and gave
me a stiff kick, Waits words kept me
from being downed, and gave me
strength to lick that tickle dame who'd
played with me and taken all my gold:
he showed me how to still be free, and
not feel lone and cold. He taught me
how to sing and smile, no matter what
the pain. as tread each long weary mile
my livelihood to gain He taught me true
humility and kindness toward all men
1 learned what was stability from good
Walt Mason's pen.
1 wish that I could only write like nv
friend Walter wrote, for then I'd spring
into the fight and hypocrites Id choke.
Ia cheer the weary and the sad. I'd
make the whole world laugh, and teach
that nothing is so bad that one can't
stand the gaff
Walt Mason took his shingle down and
laid aside his pen, but what he wrote will
always live deep in the hearts of men.
Wen always feel his spirit near, we'll
always hear his laugh to guide us
through the things we fear, and help
us stand the gaff.

DeplOres Determinations
Against Women.

To the Editor of The Star:
Women today have the vote and are sup
posed to be equal citizens before the law,
but in some of the more backward States
there still exists serious discrimination
against women and many unjust prop
erty laws on the statute books. In some
States the husband of married woman
can collect and keep her wages and he
can even will away their children with
out her consent.
Too many women have been indiffer-
ent to their rights and have let home
duties monopolize their time to such an
extent that they do not even vote, or
show any interest in politics and their
entire lives are bound between four walls
and women of this type are holding back
their more progressive sisters. 1t is the
duty of every woman now that women
have suffrage to vote at the polls and
endeavor to get men of integrity in office.

THIS AND THAT
BIZ Charles E. Traceueu.

There has been a war going on in the
yard for several days.
The catbirds and the cardinals are
at it.
Just what the feud is about is un-
known, but it probably has something
to do with nesting privileges.
Evidently the catbirds do not want
the cardinals around. But the redbirds,
having been in the garden all winter,
feel they have right to patrol the space.
A great racket takes place every eve
ming. 1t mostly centers in the rhodo-
dendrons with cardinals and catbirds
flying in and out making harsh metallic
cries, and creating general disturbance
II you go out to see what is the mat
ter, there will be sudden whirr and
flash Of red by your face.
1t will be cardinal going by at the
rate of 40 miles per hour That, at least
is the way it seems
Usually the bird is followed closely by
another, going at similar rate, but the
second one just grazes the top of your
head
This is an experience not to be well
coined at all, for if one of those birds
miscalculated and hit you squarely in
the face, you would know it for many
hours or days
The chances are that the catbirds fear
the presence of the cardinals, which are
NJ,
they seem, perhaps.
Most birds manage to keep free from
personal contact with human beings in
the garden.
1t is rare thing, rare enough to be
noted, when one of them drops down to
peck an intruder on the head.
In all the cases We have heard of. this
head is always bald 1t may be that
something about the shiny surface leads
the bird on. The white or pinkish dome
evidently does not frighten it as a good
suit Of hair would. Perhaps birds look
upon great deal of hair as animallike.
and are afraid to attack.
1t is not often that human is at
tackled by birds in the garden. Some
times mother birds will drop down, as
related by a correspondent here. and
pull few hairs from the head. to get
nesting material. In such cases the VIC
TIM if such he is to be called, is usually
quite still.
4
The amazing way in which birds miss
colliding in the air, or flying into houses
and other man-made structures. has
always been something Of a mystery.
They wing their way in and out of
shrubbery in foundation paintings.
They turn corners, pass projections
skim the cutters and cornices, yet never
once do they fly squarely into them, or
even touch a wing
They have similar ability at SKIM
ming the tops of automobiles. Often
we have watched them crossing Connec-
ticut avenue at high traffic tide. They
fairly skim the tops, but never hit.

In fact, until the emergency expendi-
lures Of the depression years, the
District was habitually excluded from
participation in Federal grants and
subsidies.
7. Obligation to make payment
representing excess of services rem
dered by the local government to the
Nation over those rendered by the
National Government to the District,
a payment estimated by the Jacobs
report as exceeding two millions of
dollars for the fiscal year 1887.
The final, total obligation of the
Nation to the District is not shown
by any one of these seven obligations,
but is made up of the total of all
seven-less those portions of the
seven items which overlap one an
other and cause Implications.
The role played by the District Of
Columbia as a payer of national taxes
is worthy of special consideration.
In the fiscal year ending June, 1888,
without any representation whatever
in the taxing body, there was COL
lected from the District of Columbia
in national taxes (internal revenue)
for national purposes $27,66O, ,524.
This amount was greater than the
collections from any one of twenty
four States, and exceeded the COM
bined collections from nine States.
The combined payments by these
nine States amounted to only $26.-
s80,3O7, against the $27 7,66O,524 COL
lected from the residents of the Dis
trict. Thus it is shown that the tax
payers of the National Capital pay
over IS per cent of the municipal ex-
penses and also contribute heavily
toward the national support.

Alcohol Held Factor
In GalentO Defeat,

To the Editor of The Star:
The utter failure of Galento in his
fight with Joe Louis should cause people
to consider the advantage of refraining
from the use of alcohol. Here was q
man who boasted of his capacity in
drinking beer and, although he had the
spirit and courage to win, he had to yield
to the superior force of man of more
temperate habits.
Let those who want to drink go ahead
and drink to their hearts content as
long as it is legal to do so, but think
they should quit telling the rest Of us
there is any benefit to be derived from
the use of alcohol as a beverage.

Britain Aroused

Three distinct manifestations of
Brltannla's aroused spirit became
evident in Europe this week, mott
waited by the hope of discouraging
whatever designs Chancellor Hitler
may have to strike out for Danzig
and the Polish Corridor.
First, former Foreign Minister An
thony Eden admonished Britain to
'be tough, talk tough and act tough"
Almost simultaneously the British
note to Germany rebutted point by
point the charge that Britain and
France strive to encircle the axis
powers. Finally, Foreign Minister
Halifax, acting upon Mr.. Eden's ad-
vice to talk tough" delivered before
the Royal Institute of International
Affairs as clear a statement as the
English language will permit that
Britain wants to discuss settlement
OF all the points which disturb Euro
pean relations, but will meet force
and aggression with all the force at
its disposal.
There was nothing equivocal in
Lord Halifax's discourse. British pol
Icy rests upon the foundations of
purpose first, to resist force and Sec
ond, to build peace.
AS regards the first: I" in the
event of further aggression we are
resolved to use at once the whole of
our strength in fulfllment of our
pledges to resist it," Obligations have
been assumed and more will be as
sumed with a full understanding of
their consequences. The navy is "un-
challengeable," the air force "has
now nothing to fear from any other"
and the army is being nodded into
powerful weapon for the defense of
our liberty and that of other peo-
pies" But none of this formidable
array of strength will be called into
play excepta in defense against ag-
gression."
In order to carry out the second,
Britain will be delighted to examine
the colonial problem, questions of
raw materials, trade barriers, the
issue of 'Lebensraum,' the limitation
OF armaments, and any other issue
that affects the lives of all European
citizens" But in world of force
this is impossible. Peaceful solution
must be the will and desire of all
parties.
1t was, to use Mr.: Edens term, a
tough" speech, but not bullying
one. Lord Halifax's words hearten
all those not only in England and
the other democratic states of Eu-
rope but in the United States, too,
whose sensibilities have been out
ragged by the success of Nazi-Fascist
threats and aggression. It was the
speech Of statesman who faces
realistically the fact that the struggle
is not so much one for the correction
of abuses and inequitable distribu-
ton OF the worlds goods as it is a
struggle for power and power alone.
