which is most conducive to longe-
vity-in short, where people live
the longest. Not long ago an en-
gineer named Sergei ogden Durn
had occasion TO visit the village
of Yukutsk. in Northern Siberia.
He found about 500 people in
this community, all living in
more or less primitive houses.
He was surprised by the number
Of oldsters in the place and be-
gan asking questions.
Mr.. Durn was told by the tribal
leaders that it is unusual for
anyone in Yukutsk to live less
than IS or so years and that it is
not unusual for the citizens of
this obscure community TO pass
the century mark. He talked
with one man who was 10.
AS matter of fact, among the
500 people in the village he met

Million Red Cross
Volunteers Aid
Defense Program

Washington, D. C.. Behind the
front lines OF U. S. defenses more
than 100000 Rcd Cross volunteers
are on the Job - making surgical
dressings, knitting sweaters and
giving comfort articles, learning
the rudiments OF emergency mass
feeding and scores of other duties
In an all-out effort for national de-
fense.
The largest defense task now be-
ing undertaken by Red Cross volun-
teers is the production Of 100000
surgical dressings for the Army and
Navy, according to Mrs. Dwight F.
Davis, national director OF Volunteer
Special Services. The undertaking
came to the Red Cross at the re-
quest OF the surgeons general OF
the Army and Navy when survey
revealed commercial manufacturers
could provide only ten per cent Of
the surgical dressings needed.
Home Service volunteers and
Gray Ladies, whose duties are d.
rectly concerned with the man in
uniform also are expanding their
programs, Mrs. Davis said.
AS a preparedness measure, thou
sands of women throughout the
country are learning mass feeding
and nutrition as members OF the
Red Cross Cantcen Corps. Added
thousands are being trained in the
Motor Corps to serve as emergency
drivers.

Is IL necessary TO be q high
school graduate IN order to en-
list in the Navy?
No. Navy enlistees need not be
high school graduates. All appli-
eAnts will be given an examina-
ton containing approximately 100
questions. A grade of so per cent
or better on this examination Is
sufficiently high to pass the Navy
educational standards. However,
a high school education will be
valuable to the seaman during his

while that for single persons would
be cut from $500 to $3.50.
It is estimated that these changes,
If finally put into effect. would add
from 5000, 900 to 5000 900 persons to
the ranks of income tax payers, and,
of course, would increase taxes all
along the line.
The creation Of these new millions
OF taxpayers, together with the high
er amounts which would have to be
paid by those already subject to the
tax, should operate as curb on
some members of Congress and GER
tain administration officials whose
readiness to spend public money has
been equalled only by their reluc-
tance to increase revenues by broad
ening the tax base. If the commit
tees proposal had this result, and
no other, it would be worthy of adop-
ton, but since it also is calculated
to bring in revenue which the Gov
ernment must have at time when
defense outlays inevitably will be
vastly increased, the Congress should
not hesitate to approve the recon-
mendation.

New Attorney General

The promotion of Solicitor General
Francis Biddle to be Attorney Cen
eral brings into the Cabinet one of
the earliest and Staunchest members
of the New Deal, but withal, one of
the least conspicuous of those who
have been prominent in the inner
circles of the Roosevelt admins
tration.
Scion of the famous Philadelphia
family whose name he bears, and
a descendant on his mothers side of
Edmund Randolph, first Attorney
General under Washington, Mr..
Biddle, one-time Bull Mooser, was
named chairman of the old Labor
Relations Board in N. r. A. days,
after successful law practice in
which he battled with equal vigor on
behalf of well-entrenched corpora
tions and not-so-well-entrenched
citizens whose cause was appealing.
Later, he was special counsel for the
congressional committee investi-
eating the Tennessee Valley Au-
thority, and then member of the
Third Circuit United States Court Of
Appeals, relinquishing this life ap-
pointment to the bench to become
Solicitor General.
In the Department OF Justice, he

The Duke of Kent

Those Washingtonians who have
met the Duke Of Kent must have
been impressed by his earnestness.
His memories of the conflict which
saddened his boyhood still are pres
ent in his mind. To them now are
added his experience in the renewal
OF that struggle. Realizing that his
lot is but a part of the common
ordeal Of his countrymen, he meets
its demand without complaint, yet
one has only to glance into his face
to comprehend how deeply he feels
the sorrows Of his time.
King George vi, it will be remem-
bered, has a similar solemnity Of
countenance and bearing. Perhaps
both brothers inherited from their
father the tendency toward philo-
sophie reflection. He also was con-
templative man, much given to
solemn reverie, shy, sensitive, re-
served in expression, reticent about
his private thoughts.
But the Duke of Kent likewise has
an endowment from his mother, the
Dowager Queen Mary, who gave to
her sons that gift Of courage which
again and again, in good days and
bad, they have demonstrated. He
would be welcome in Washington on
any occasion. At this moment, he
requires no special assurance Of
Americas pleasure in receiving him.

with Attorney General Robert H.
Jackson, whom he now sue
ceeds, and in consequence assumed
much Of the administrative detail
that ordinarily falls to the Attorney
General, while also carrying on his
regular duties as chief counsel for
the Government. He successfully
argued the constitutionality of the
Wage-Kour Act and the Federal
Power Act in the Supreme Court,
while at the same time directing
the administration of the Alien Reg
istration Act under which approx
mately five million citizens were
listed and fingerprinted by the de-
partment without q hitch.

brought thoroughness and intensity

ties no doubt will be discharged in
the same spirit.

Small Business Problems

That the shift of the United States
to war basis will require far-reach-
ing readjustments in our national
economy long has been evident. 1t
is abundantly clear that these
changes are imposing a heavy burden
on small business. Because OF rising
costs, increasing taxes and the short
age of materials due to priorities,
many small business firms today
face precarious and uncertain fu-
ture.
In a report published this week,
the United Business Service pointed
out that advancing prices have in
creased the mortality rate among
small business enterprises Because
of higher prices, more capital is re-
quired to handle the same volume of
merchandise. Small retailers and
dealers with limited capital are feel
ing the pinch, and as a result the
number Of failures is said to be
increasing.
Taxes are another problem. Dur
ing the first half of this year, 275
industrial companies set aside Sis
per cent of their earnings, to meet
Federal taxes, as compared with 267
per cent in 1910, according to
the National Industrial Conference
Board. These figures show that in
dustry is carrying a heavy burden.
Revenue legislation now pending in
Congress provides for additional
levies, so the tax burden on business
both big and little-will be even
heavier next year than it is at
present.
BY making it difficult, If not i'm
possible to secure necessary ma
terials, priorities are another factor
contributing to the difficulties which
many small business firms now face.
Because of the restrictions recently
applied to the on-defense use of
steel, some plants already have sus-
pended operations on civilian goods,
the magazine Steel revealed this
week. In other industries, many
small plants also have been forced to
shut down, due to the shortage of
non-defense goods.
In view of its Importance in our
economic life, the Government
should make every effort to ease the
burdens of small business and help
it find place in the defense pro-
gram. To this end, it is essential
that small firms equipped to manu-
facture war materials be given their
share of defense contracts. In set
ting up the new Defense Contract
Service, the ONCE of Production
Management has taken action to
distribute defense orders among
plants that face a shutdown, as a
result Of reductions imposed on nom
defense production. With a wider
distribution of war contracts, small
industrial enterprises would be bet
ter able to adjust themselves to the
requirements of the war economy.
Undeniably, this would be in the
public interest.
