Mount Etnu Again

Reports from Rome to the effect
that Mount Etna again is active may
be of little significance, yet there are
many Americans who, having visited
the scene, will be interested to hear
of the new series of eruptions. The
loftiest volcano in Europe is an un-
forgettable feature of the Mediter-
ranean picture. It looms above the
coasts of Sicily ten thousand feet,
and commonly emits a column of
dark and acrid smoke from its sum-
nit. The truncated cone, however, is
by no means the only crater. Rather,
there are innumerable openings from
which steaming lava has descended
to the shores of the Middle Sea.
The ancient Greeks knew Etna as
the forge Of Vulcan or of the Cyclops.
Within the mountain, it once was
believed, the Titan called Enceladus
struggled for his freedom. A tradi-
tion tells that Empedocles, physician,
poet and philosopher, cast himself

Wild Life

only generatlOn mas passed since
Americans, led by a few far-sighted
individuals, awoke to the fact that
the continent was nearing the end
of its once supposedly unlimited re-
sources of forests and wild life. Some
species had become extinct; others,
through improper use of natural
materials or through wholesale
slaughter, had become so rare as to
be unreported for several years at
time. Restoration of the past as
means of increasing the Nations
wealth, rather than as mere pro-
vision of interesting relics of pri-
meval America, became an important
work. Originally the proponents
were few in number, but their in
terest was intense and the move
ment spread rapidly. Today the
doctrines of conservation are taught
to every child, most young peoples
movements make it a part of their
programs. Many articulate organ
izations have sold" it to the general
public.
During the past week the North
American Wild Life Conference was
held in Washington. This is an an
nual gathering of all organizations,
officials and individuals whose in
terest has done so much to enhance
the resources Of wild life and to make
nature accessible to the masses of
the people. Through their work in
controlling pollution, increasing
animal and bird life, preserving and
renewing forests and related activ-
tiles they have made an important
contribution to the wealth and
health of the people.
But much remains to be DONE as
indicated by the theme of the closing
session Of the conference. All States,
through the interest of these organ
izations, have joined officially in the
movement through the establish
ment of conservation commissions.
But only eight of these are in actual
ity devoted to this purpose entirely.
In forty States conservation is mat
ter OF political control and political
job-making. Their stats are selected
for party rectitude rather than for
ability and efficiency in their work.
In each of these forty States wild life
has declined under such a policy,
while in the other eight States It
has increased.
Education remains the prime
weapon of the conservationist. And
so well has the campaign been car
ried forward over the past thirty
years that it is possible persons living
today will see the time when most
Of mans past ravages have been
repaired

Speaking Of Operations

Under the sponsorship of the
Washington State Medical Associa-
tion an appendix recently was re-
moved over Statewide radio hook
up, with doctor at microphone to
broadcast play-by- play description
Of the event. 1t was said to have
been a great success, and produced
much favorable audience reaction.
When it was announced that the
patient had been put out by DR..
Smith, unassisted, it was good to
know that the anesthetist's name
was correctly given, and later on
when DR.. Jones cut brilliantly
through right center to be within
reach of his goal, it did not have to
be followed up by a hasty correction
to the effect that 1t was really Dr.
Brown who had substituted and
thrown the patient for loss of fifty
dollars.
The neW technique is expected to
be of great help in the treatment of
mlder forms of that dread malady,
post-operative mania, except in those
severe cases where the patient gets
out Of bed and roams the corridors
biting nurses and doctors. More
commonly, however, the disease man
ifests itself by an uncomfortable urge
on the part of the patient to talk
about his or her operation until the
vocal chords give out, after which he
or she must suffer in silence. Under
the new arrangement one can buy
the electrical transcription, sneak it
home under cover, and surreptitious-
ly slip 1t on the graphophone. Good
results may be obtained by Turing
prospective auditors under the pre-
text of a bridge game, and may be
made permanent by locking the
doors and windows.

into the highest pit to create the i'm
preston that he was god. The vol
cano allegedly expelled one OF his
bronze sandals to solve the mystery
OF his disappearance. Pindar and
Aeschylus wrote OF cruptions in ATS
BIC. The disturbance Of 396 is said to
have prevented Himilco from march
Ing on Syracuse. Perhaps the most
famous Of all explosions was that Of
1869 AID, when Catania was over
whelmed.
But Etna is not an especially dan
gerous volcano. It stands in one Of
the most densely populated non
industrial areas Of the world, and
ceaselessly threatens the entire
island with destruction, yet its bark
appears to be more annoying than
its bite. True, its record includes at
least one cataclysm in which sixty
thousand people are supposed to
have perished, and it always Is posi-
BILE that it may break out in another
such rampage. Native Sicilians,
though, are not fearful Of such
disaster. Instead, they cultivate
certain curious but understandable
pride in their fiery monster" which
annually brings profit to them. They
appreciate its beauty, also, and their
enthusiasm is shared by tourists
from the United States, who, climb
ing the majestic hill and looking
down into its flaming center, never
forget the spectacle. Parenthetically,
1t may be mentioned that it is an
experience worthy of remembrance
to pick violets on the slope-delicate
and fragile flowers defying death
with courage which human crea-
lures need in time when ihe whole
earth is volcano.

sweet land OF liberty while hedged in

riers. A tariff tax, 1t should be remem-
bered, always means special privilege
to some protected industry at the ex-
pense of all others. And this, Of course,
violates all considerations of justice.
Unfortunately those who frame our
political platforms endeavor to be all
things to all men, so they avoid the
tariff question so far as it affects the
consumer but are quick to promise a
high tariff to the manufacturer, the
farmer and the union labor people, all
of whom demand special privileges for
themselves. The demand for free trade
must, therefore, come from those who

The Gurund Rifle

The controversy over the relative
merits of the Garand mi-automatic
rifle and the Springfield bolt-action
rifle as the standard weapon for the
infantry and cavalry of the United
States Army apparently has become
sufficiently acute to justify a thor
ough airing Of the whole matter.
There probably never was a new
weapon adopted by any major mill
tary power which was not the sub
ject of controversy. Military men,
on the whole, are inclined to be
conservative with regard to new
weapons. They are reluctant to give
up a tried and dependable piece of
equipment for new item which has
not proved it's superior virtues.
It may be that criticism of the new
Garand rifle is due chiefly to this
inherent spirit of conservatism. It
may be true, on the other hand, that
the new rifle does have defects or
characteristics which make it un-
suitable for adoption as standard
weapon, to the elimination of the
Springfield, which is a highly re-
spected arm among military men
everywhere.
This is a controversy which, for
very obvious reasons, cannot be set
tied by the layman. Whether the
Garand is less accurate than the
Springfield in thehands of the aver
age rifeman is point which is sub
ject to proof by test. Whether it is
a weapon which will stand up and
function efficiently under cam
paign and battle conditions also
should be subject to proof by service
testing over a reasonable length of
time. Whether difficulties of manu-
tacture make the Garand unsuitable
for mass production in the face of
emergency also is a matter which
can be decided by experience as the
weapon goes into production at the
present time.
Friends of the new Garand rifle,
and they are very many, attribute
criticism of the weapon to over
conservatism. It's critics maintain
Evening star., 1940-03-23
Tax Equities

The new Nichols tax bill, combin-
ing a sales and income levy, has been
drafted with an apparent intent to
eliminate one of the marked in
equities of the present local income
tax law. Under the statute now on
the books, as a result of a recent de-
cision by the United States Court of
Appeals for the District, the income
tax must be paid by persons with
taxable incomes who are domiciled
In the District. But apparently
thousands of persons who can es-
tablish claim to being domiciled in
the States, although they live and
work in Washington, will not have
to pay the tax, and that is true even
though the State of their domicile
does not have any income tax.
This glaring injustice-the grant,
ing of tax immunity to a class Of
citizens who enjoy all the municipal
benefits of taxpaying residents-has
been overcome in the new bill by
making the tax applicable to "resi-
dents" of the District, that term
being defined as including all persons
domiciled in the District on the last
day of the taxable year, and every
other person who, for more than
six months of the taxable year,
maintained his place of abode within
the District, whether domiciled here
or not. 1t is realized, of course, that
this question is of less Importance
In revenue sense under the Nichols
bill, since the tax is imposed only on
incomes in excess of $4,000. But
the mere fact that fewer persons
will be affected does not in any way
detract from the Importance of the
principle involved, and Congress, as
a matter of simple justice, should
approve this particular section OF
the bill as it is drawn.
From the wording of the Nichols
bill it appears that income earned
within the city is taxable at its
source, so that the District will have
prior claim to any tax on income
earned here which might be payable
by nonresident. If the non-resi-
dent lives in State which gives
appropriate tax credits to residents
of the District he will be given a
similar credit by local authorities for
the tax paid to his home State, but
in the absence Of any such recipro-
cal arrangement the District pre-
sumably would assert claim to the
entire tax on local income. This
provision of the law also is entirely
equitable and should be retained by
Congress. Obviously, any non-resi-
dent who earns more than $4,000
in the District, so as to become liable
to the local tax, must receive sub
stantial services from the munich
pality and should have no objection
to being taxed in return for those
services.

that the Garand has shortcomings
which make unwise the abandon
ment Of the Springfield in favor Of
the new seni-automatic.
The Star is publishing a series OF
three articles summarizing the prin-
cipal arguments for and against the
Garand rifle. This is done in an
honest effort to bring about frank
and open discussion of problem
which is creating an admitted diff

which obviously is Of vital impor-
tance to the efficiency of our armed
