icals about whom at least three
witnesses are available TO tes-
tify. The list is being added to
daily. When it reaches the neigh
borhood of $50, it will be sub
mitted to executive officials
who have authority to fire sus-
poets. Time will be allowed for
action. If there are no dis
charges, the Dies cmmittee will
hold open hearings, disclosing
not only past records of the
radicals but also some startling
and very recent activities. Pub
lie opinion will do the rest.
When the purge begins, it
will, of course, be popular with
the public, for always in time
of international stress Ameri-
cans have turned away from ex-
perimentalism to fundamental
ism. They have, in short, gone
conservative. That feeling, which
began to develop because of the
domestic failure of recent ex-
perimentS, was intensified when
war started III Europe.
The reason, OF course, is COM
mon knowledge that a nation
cannot wage a war without the
help and resources of industry.
It will be interesting, therefore,
to determine what future tests
of public opinion show the re-
action to be to present trends.
The government had begun
several attempts to give bust
ness some help in an effort to
rout depression. With the war
threat, it intensified these.
Harrv Hopkins was made Sec
rotary of Commerce in an effort
to revitalize that department.
The StetiniuS War Resources
board was created to take ad-
vantage of the best assistance
industry could give in planning
for national defense. Business
help itself has lately been re-
cruited for government service.

lous times. When balmy Dreezes
blow in Washington, when there
is a serene air of peace, ambi-
tious youngsters in political cir
cles lie back under the bread
fruit tree and dream about
billion dollar spending programs
without bothering much where
the money is all going to CONS
from. But when the war clouds
gather, and practical problems
have to be taken care OF, then
experienced businessmen are
hastily called back into action
and a state of grace.
, 1t never fails. And it's begin

facts in the eternal debate be-
tween industry and business on

--Electrification Administration, fig

State Authority wrote:
- "Getting off to a comparatively
Slow start, the Rural Electrification
Administration has, during the past
year, speeded up its program in
North Carolina On July /, 1888, the
administration had built, had under
construction or had authorized
total of 1,151 miles of line to serve
5,375 customers. On June 25, 1889,
the totals showed 4,971.7 miles ap-
proved to serve 21,359. customers"

quadrupled both as to miles of line
and customers served, an increase
far beyond that Of any other agency
when considered on a percentage
basis.

The Federal program also has
about completed arrangements to
authorize some $50 miles, to serve
more than 800 customers in Jones
county, and there are a number Of
other projects under consideration.
Lagging in the early part Of the
period since 1885 is attributed to
numerous causes, and it is hardly
possible to pick out any one of them
as really the major factor in slow
progress.
Perhaps the biggest handicaps to
the Federal projects, however, were
the bitter fights precipitated by
plans for cooperatives in Johnston
and Caldwell counties. In Johnston
there were violent charges of "sell-
OUT made against coop directors
who made a contract with the Caro-
lima Power and Light In Caldwell
there was bitterness, but the Duke
Power withdrew from competition
and the coop finally was organized.

Army Moneuvers

Conversion of the bulky infantry
division of World War days, fash
ioned for the relatively slow-moving
war of position, into highly mobile,
hard-hitting force capable of ex-
plotting to the full the new motor
lied equipment and weapons of the
modern army is major concern of
tacticians today.
Thorough testing of new theories,
organization and equipment is
primary purpose of large-scale
Regular Army and National Guard
maneuvers now getting under way in
Virginia and scheduled to be held
later this month in the vicinity of
Plattsburg, N. Y.
While testing of the completely
organized new "streamlined" division
set up as the model for the new
Army will not be possible during the
current maneuvers, many of the
vital features of the new plan will
be put to the proof of actual field
service and the War Department
hopes to learn much in a practical
way which will be of value in reor-
ganizing the ground armies to meet
the demands of modern warfare.
In general, the National Guard di-
visions, which have Jagged behind
the Regular Army in changing over
to the new model, will be pitted
against better equipped, more COM
pact and far smaller Regular Army
divisions in test of the old against
the new
The maneuvers, in addition to af-
fording an invaluable field test of
organization, employment and equip
ment, will provide rare opportu-
nifty for the handling of large bodies
Of troops by officers who in peace
times rarely see organizations larger
than regiment. They also will
enable the public to see something
of the new national defense machin-
cry their taxes are building.

Counting Heurthstones

After a sharp fight, marked by
bitter partisanship among individ-
uals on both sides, the Senate bill
authorizing an eight-million- dollar
addition to the 1910 census for a
tabulation of housing and living
conditions passed the House in the
closing days of the session. This
was the bill which was characterized
as an invasion of private rights, a
"snooping expedition" for propa-
ganda purposes, the bill which
women would just hate
There are some who resent many
activities of the Federal Govern
ment as an invasion of their rights,
and many are the instances In which
Government information has been
turned for propaganda purposes.
But the housing census will serve
another purpose than providing
arguments for those who hold that
one-third or more of the Nation is
ill-housed, or for those who doubt it.
Its function is not the aid of par
tisanship, but the advancement of
the national welfare.
The 1910 census, with it's questions
on various economic and sociological
conditions, will furnish the first COM
plete portrait of Americas other
half. For the first time many mat
ters of national welfare will be
presented in definite figures. In
many fields it will give final answer
to questions which have been an
swered heretofore, by compilations
from antagonistic or interested
sources. In others, it will provide a
complete count where only cross
sectional estimates have been pos
sible before. Many of the questions
which the Nation is asking. and
which the census will endeavor to
answer, have become matters of
common dispute only in recent years.
But other administrations have been
handicapped by lack of definite
figures, and valuable pieces of legis-
latlon, in the past, have been lost or
mutilated by confusion of fact.
Eight million dollars spent to learn
definitely the way in which our Ma
tion lives will furnish a useful basis
for future national planning.

Memorial PARKWAY

Action by the Senate and House
in approving the hundred and fifty
thousand dollar appropriation for the
Federal Governments share in the
purchase of land for the George
Washington Memorial Parkway has
saved the Park and Planning Com
mission an embarrassing and, per-
haps, costly predicament.
The fund, cut out of the third de-
ficiency bill by the House, was re-
stored by the Senate and retained by
the conferees. Montgomery County
already has raised a similar amount
as its share toward acquiring land
for the park, which will extend to
Great Falls, and preliminary steps
were under way to proceed with ex-
tensive purchases.
When the sum was removed from
the deficiency bill members of the
House committee expressed the opin-
ion an appropriation by the next ses-
sion of Congress would suffice. Under
ordinary circumstances this would be
true, since the delay would not affect
the eventual completion of the prof.
ect which Congress already had ap-
proved. However, in this particular
case the delay undoubtedly would
have added considerably to the total
cost of the parkway, and possibly, be-
cause of additional necessary con-
demnation proceedings, would have
held back the work for a number of
years. This condition results partly
from the program of the Federal
Government itself in developing the
old Chesapeake and Ohio Canal,
whose route closely parallels that of
the parkway. The canal development
has been one of the factors in in
creaslng property values along the
shores of the river. Another factor
has been the unusually rapid devel-
opment of building operations, prin-
clpally homes, in the area. That a
continued increase in such opera
tions is to be expected is reasonable,
since many portions of western
Montgomery County have been pro-
vided for the first time with modern
highways into the Capital. A delay
OF six months or year in buying the
lands during period of expand
Ing values and increasing construc-
ton probably would have necessi-
tated much larger expenditures for
completion of the park.

Lost Opportunity

Denial by Congress OF funds Tor
the training and promotion plan
contemplated in President Roose-
velt's civil service expansion pro-
gram, coupled with the failure to
pass the Ramspeck bill to bring
thousands of patronage positions
under the merit system, shape up in
retrospect as a distinct disservice to
the cause of efficient and economical
government.
In neither instance was there good
ground for withholding approval.
In turning down the Budget Bu-
reau recommendation for slightly
less than eight hundred thousand
dollars to permit departments and
independent agencies to set up per-
sonnel units and enable the Civil
Service Commission to assume the
expanded functions entailed by the
training and competitive promotion
plan, the deficiency subcommittee
apparently let the merits of the mat
ter be outWeighed by the fact that
legislative committees of House and
Senate had not passed on it. This,
at any rate, was the principal rea-
son offered for rejection.
The Ramspeck bill simply was
killed by inaction, lying dormant for
several weeks before Congress ad-
journed, although special rule had
been granted in the House for its
consideration.
The upshot is that the long over
due civil service reform program
projected by President Roosevelt in
June of last year is just about where
it started, and keeping it company is
the legislation that was to compile
ment it by extending the merit sys-
tenn to all but policy-forming posi-
tions.
1t is possible that the desired ad-
vances will be accomplished in the
next Congress, but chances of that
happening cannot be considered any
too good in view of the fact that the
session comes on the eve of the 1910
campaign.
The only conclusion possible right
now is that an excellent opportunity
to promote the principle of civil serv-
Ice has gone glimmering.
