The Fee System

Several weeks ago Maryland's
newly elected Governor promised to
put an end to the fee system of
compensating magistrates in the
counties. If he needed an overt
incident to serve as lever for start
ing his reform, he has it in the events
which have recently occurred in
nearby Capitol Heights.
These events involve charges of
collusion between the towns peace
officers and magistrates to enrich the
community treasury through trivial
arrests, and charges that arresting
officers, ignoring definite statutes,
have boycotted one justice because
he refused to cooperate in the plan.
In general, the fee system problem
Is q matter of small fry legal diff
culties. Very few individual incidents
involving It's worst features are i'm
portant enough to attract continued
serious attention. But as a matter
Of general civil integrity 1t cannot

be overlooked. Basically, it is q
medieval survival which has no
proper place in a modern system Of
administration of justice.
Experience has shown that it can
be used for improper purposes other
than the relatively unimportant one
of bolstering community's revenue.
In some Jurisdictions it has been
used through collusion as a channel
which opens the way for individual
coercion, either politically, or in
matters of personal business.
An archaic method, no longer a
necessity in any sense, which for
years has been the source OF COM
plant in many States, is beneath
the dignity of Maryland. Governor
O'Conor merits wish for success in
his effort to put an end to such
means of levying tribute.

Fleet Problem Xxx

In view of growing belief that the
United States, in order to defend it.
self, must be prepared to assist in
defense of its Latin American neigh
bors, the execution of Fleet Problem
Xxx in the West Indies and Atlantic
Ocean east of the Lesser Antilles is
assuming greater significance daily
as time draws near for the fleet to
begin its passage of the Panama
Canal.
The problem is essentially one
which would confront this country
should any European power or coali-
ton of powers ever seek to cripple
our military -line"-the Panama
Caral-from the sea or to establish
in the Americas or West Indies base
from which to conduct operations.
In connection with the major prob
lem, the newly created Atlantic
Squadron and the Fleet Marine
Force will combine in a base defense
problem in the vital Culebra area
just before and after the main fleet
exercise.
For the purposes of Problem Xxx
the United States Fleet, under Ad-
miral Claude Bloch, will be divided
into two portions, a "Black" force
charged with defending the coast,
and an attacking white" force. The

Family Tanks

America is definitely the home of
the family automobile, but it has re-
mained for Russia to develop the
family tank. Reports from Moscow
indicate that there are any number
OF tank crews composed Of brothers,
In some cases as many as four. One
crew, believe 1t or not, rejoices in
the incredibly appropriate name of
Popoff. True, the tanks belong to
what the drivers laughingly call their
government, while the American au-
tomobile belongs to the head of the
family, but this doesn't cut much ice
ii there are four sons of driving age
and there is a girl within fifty miles.
In Russia and America alike, for
practical purposes, vehicle belongs
to him who grabs it first, regardless
OF title registration.
Now that it has been shown that
America is badly in need of SELF
defense, why not borrow the idea
from Russia with many tanks? Why
not turn a few average American
families loose in tank, which would
not only give them valuable military
experience but also would develop a
breed of superpedestrians who would
soon learn practically all there is to
know about self-defense; to say moth
ing of breed of painfully polite
traffic cops? The family might have
the prosaic name of Jones, but would
be worthy competitors of the Popoff
brothers, with Ma doing the back
seat driving, Pa taking that short cut
he never could make before with the
car, and Junior on deck with the gun
to run interference.

mission Of the Black force will be to
defeat the Whites and prevent estab-
lishment Of shore base. All of the
complex units of the modern fleet
will be employed in surprise day and
night operations and the problem is
intended, according to the Navy De-
partment, to provide the maximum
fleet and personnel training and the
severest possible tests of materiel
under actual conditions.
The problem will involve 147 sur
face vessels of all types and 900 air.
craft, together with 5000 officers and
$4,000 men.
The Navy Department has ex-
planned carefully that the problem
is not intended to reflect any phases
of world politics. The implications,
however. are obvious. Although the
problem was conceived long before
the historic Lima conference. the
proceedings there have served to in
crease the interest in the Navy's first
large-scale Atlantic operations in
many years. Since the problem was
announced, the Navy Department
also has created the new Atlantic
Squadron.
Fleet Problem Xxx is only another
reflection OF an inescapable conclu-
slon-that any realistic conception
OF our national defense must con-
template defensive operations in
either the Pacific or the Atlantic-or
both.

Suggests Raising Of
Wild Fowl.
To the Editor OF The Star:

Why not use our forests to raise wild
fowl? They have in Norway some birds
entirely different from those we have
here. They have the thur, the size of the
turkey, weighing about 20 pounds, and
its mate, the roi, weighing about 10
pounds; the aarhane, a wonderful indigo
blue bird of about the same size as the
roi, and its mate, the aarhone, weighing
about 4 pounds. They all belong to the
hen family and propagate very quickly.
They also have in Norway the rype
(ptarmigan), which is smaller bird but
tastes good. They are very common in
Northern Norway.

Gould get eggs from Norway and hatch
them in incubators here. When we get
a reasonable number of birds we could
let them loose and they could take care

Washingtonians Praised for
Aiding Music Conference.

To the Editor of The Star:
The annual convention of the Music
Teachers National Association, held dur
ing the closing days Of 1888, brought to
Washington large gathering Of teachers
and educators. Everything had been
done in advance to insure a successful
meeting. The local committee, under
the generalship of DR.. Spivacke and his
helpers and Mrs. Fannie A. Roberts, had
spared no pains to insure a perfect prof.
ect. and all who enjoyed the crowded
hours were keenly aware of the many
strokes made in advance for this sue
cessful gathering. The weather was per-
feet and from beginning to end every
thing betokened unusual cooperation.
When, at the conclusion Of the gather
ing. the resolutions were read, one was
again reminded of the many firms, So
cieties and individuals who had united
such significance.
The constant growth of the orchestra
under the dynamic leadership of DR.. Hans
Kinder is indeed a cause for congratula-
ton, not only for Washington, but for
the country at large. Each season trips
are taken to various parts of our country
by the National Symphony, and these
events are annually anticipated and
truly appreciated.
The noble lines of Constitution Hall
form an ideal setting for this body of
players. That the lovers of music in
the Nations Capital have stood behind
the undertaking and held up the hands
Of, this unusual director during the
formative years of the organization
puts your city among those supporting
SO cultural an influence. DR.. Kindler's
large vision and broadmindedness in Civ
ing all nationalities place on his pro-
grams, gives our native composers new
hope, for he has been ever mindful of
their contribution to art and there has
been many an initial hearing for the
compositions of composers worthy of rec
ognition. For all this, more than word
of thanks Is due.
At the concert, the vocal ensemble
provided by the Washington Choral So
ciety was especially noteworthy in the
enormous difficulties of the Constant
Lambert selection. It was in this COM
position that Evelyn Swarthout distin-
guished herself by tossing off the ex-
treme intricacies Of the piano part, q
veritable feat of pianism and memory.
Here is an artist of which America may
well be proud.
Scattered all through the conferences
were remarkable papers and musical in
terludes. DR.. Damrosch and Edward
johnson were naturally the high lights
among the speakers. As is always the
case, the National Federation of Music
Clubs and various organizations held
luncheons which invariably bring loyal
groups together. Space does not admit
enumerating fraction of all of this
Goth convention held for the large audi
ences that gathered for each session and
gave undivided attention to offerings Of
speech and music. A hearty need of
praise to every one who contributed to
the notable gathering!

THIS AND THAT

since, flooding all literate people beyond
redemption.
You can't keep up" with 'em any more,
or even know their names. The various
book clubs could never have got a start
II this hadn't been so. The book clubs
help, but the trouble is that everybody
one knows belongs to a different club,
and no two organizations ever seem to
select the same works.
~ - 4
So the road is all laid for book bore
dom.
With the inability of any one to keep
up with the new ones, part of the pleas
ure Of reading is gone, because in the
old days 1t was real treat to be able
to talk over the new books with ones
friends.
Many OF us can recall when there were
only one or two real "best sellers" year.
To have read them was to have kept
up with books.
The educated man was supposed to
do so, and he felt sure that other edu-
Gated people would have read them.
Even the best magazines were we'll
within the grasp Of the true reader. It
was possible to have read all the really
worth while and amusing articles, and
1t was always great fun to talk them
over with others.
Today 1t is different. Ones acquaint-
ances greet enthusiastic remarks about
some new book with looks of boredom,
showing beyond cavail that they have
not read the thing.
But have you read so-and-so?" they
shoot back, instantly, with that bright
look which says as plainly as words, II
bet have you there"
4 ~
Thus the great adventure of reading
becomes sort Of contest, instead of q
pleasure.
All these things make for difficulty in
the art, but there is a sound physical
reason why many persons great readers
though they are, begin to find them
selves reading less and less with ad-
vancing years, or, what is worse, irving
to read half dozen, or a dozen, differ
ent books at one and the same time.
The eyes.
These faithful servants of mind and
soul. these most wonderful of all phy-
slcal possessions, little by little decline.
One can't see the numbers in the tele-
phone book WELL and holds the book
farther and farther away.
You should go to an oculist," is the
ever-ready advice and it is good advice,
but ever after there is a sense of eye
inferiority.
The old-time reader, who could read
for days on end with only intermissions
for meals, and not always then, now
finds himself somewhat diffident in his
reading habits. He may think he is
just critical, and hard to please, but
actually what is hurting him is the on
rush of time and his own reactions to it.
Let him take heart. Quantity never
did play part here. 1t is quality which
counts, now as always. Read less, but
read better. That way reading salvation
lies.

New Popular Front
Government In Chile.

To the Editor of The Star:
AS 1888 passed into oblivion we found
1899 settling into the same old rut. AS
during the last year we see all our
horizons darkened with the angry clouds
of war.
However, the new year does give us
something to be happy about. For in
Chile it gave birth to the first Popular
Front government in the Western
Hemisphere.
The new cabinet, headed by the VIC
torious Popular Front President, Pedro
Aguirre Cerda, consists of six Radicals,
three Socialists, two Democrats and one
Socialist Union member. Due to the
national and international situation at
present, the Communists declined an
official invitation to participate in the
cabinet, but stanchly reaffirmed their
loyalty to 1t.
AS this is being written, the young
government is right down to business IN
applying its democratic and progressive
programs and in cleaning out Fascist
debris from within its structure. I'M
mediate measures on its agenda are re-
establishment of civil liberties, wide
political amnesty, lowering the prices OF
commodities, reorganization of the public
service, purging the police and armed
forces of Fascist and reactionary ele-
ments. Seven reactionary generals,
numerous carbineros and police officers
are slated to be removed. These steps
are being taken to guarantee the in
tegrity OF its democratic institutions.
The reception accorded to SPANS Loy-
alists representative, Idalecio Prieto, is
demonstration of the new government
and the bulk of Chileans' fervent soli-
darity with the worlds democracies.
