An unbiased inventory ana dc-
counting, requiring several years
study has just been released by
the Ohio Planning Survey divls-
ion of the Ohio Department of
Highways. The report reveals
that over three quarters of a
billion dollars would be needed
to put the state highway system
in first class shape.
The report is in booklet form
and is available to interested
groups in a limited form. The
findings are summarized as fol-
lows:
The State highway system of
Ohio receives the fourth from
lowest percentage in the nation
of funds derived from impOsts
on highway users.
The State highway system
cannot be brought to an adequate
standard for present traffic with
sources of revenue now available.
The gasoline tax rate imposed
by Ohio is lower than the aver
age of the rates of all states.
The average amount paid for
a passenger car license in Ohio
is approximately the same as the
average amount paid in the 9TH
er states.
The state routes, with 20 per
cent of the road mileage in the
state, carry n per cent of the
rural traffic.
Seventy-nine per cent of the
State roads in Ohio carrying ov-
er 1000 vehicles per day are
paved, although the paving on
rlany roads is inadequate for
present traffic.
Many bridges were not design
ed for today's maximum legal
weight vehicles.
Many of the trucking units
observed exceeded the legal load
limit.
The average truck or trailer
observed carried a load more
than so per cent above its rated
capacity.
Traffic on the average mile of
State route is eight times as

ing wages would be accepted, of
course, in normal times. The price
control bill, however, is an emer-
gency measure, and during the pres
ent emergency wages are not, as
matter of fact, being fixed by any
normal process of bargaining. Or
ganized labor is taking advantage
Of the defense emergency to gain
higher pay, and industry, which is
feverishly at work on billions of
dollars worth of contracts, is ready
to grant the increases as long as the
Government-Which means the tax
payers-foots the bill This the Gov
ernment seems perfectly willing to
do. And each wage increase won
through the so-called bargaining"
processes Of the emergency, gives
another boost upward to the price
spiral. Mr.. Henderson's emotional
ism is shared by many who, like him,
detest the thought Of Government
control of wage ceilings. The point,
however, is that you cannot control
initiation without controlling one of
its chief causes-a constantly rising
level of wages.

plans no official celebration, but
throughout the length and breadth Of

prayers of thanks for the return of
normalcy in the home. 1t is the day
after the World Series, and husbands
who have either gone to the park or
glued themselves firmly to the radio

under control
They have no excuse now when
ordered to repair that broken screen
or sweep out the garage. No longer
can they get tough or plaintive,
whichever in their experience has
worked out best in the past and
refuse on the grounds that the bases
are loaded with two out. If there
are any good reasons why they
should not oil that squeaky hinge or
rake leaves, they must be invented
on the spur of the moment. No one
is up at bat to furnish a cheap,
ready-made alibi for lodging these
chores. This is very bad, because
the average husbands inventive
faculties have been almost shriveled
by lack of use in the past few days,
with such a pushover available as

do so we'll on his own. 1t is more
than likely that he will strike out
without the miracle of winning as a

The Aluminium Case

Climaxing one of the longest trials
In history, Federal Judge Francis G.
Caffey of the Southern District of
New York finds that the Government
has failed to prove any of its mo-
nopoly charges against the Alumi-
mum Company of America and more
than twoscore co-defendants.
Seeking the dissolution of the
Aluminium Company, major unit Of
the vast Mellon industrial empire,
the suit. instituted under the Sher-
man Antitrust Act, went to trial on
June 1, 1888 For solid year, the
Government presented evidence de-
signed to show that the company,
through its far-fiung holdings, exer-
cised illegal controls in the produc-
tion and fabrication of aluminium
throughout the Western Hemisphere.
Another year and two months was
consumed by the defense, and the
case passed finally into the hands of
Judge Caffey in August of last year.
The decision disposes of the mo-
nopoly allegation in one sentence.
Il rule that the charges of mo-
nopoly - have not yet been proven,
and that as to none of them is the
Government entitled to any relief
whatsoever" said the court.
The company is not yet secure in
this victory, however, for the Gov
ernment is moving without delay for
an appeal which the Supreme Court
must grant. This will decide II the
firm is to be broken up into COM

The Red Star

Tuesday is an appropriate occasion
for mention of the mysterious fourth
planet from the sun, next beyond
the earth. Long ages ago the red
star of Mars was known to the Anglo
SaxonS as Thu. The name survives
in the designation of the third day
OF the week. And during the present
hebdomadal period "the worst feared
and most devoutly worshiped" of all
heavenly bodies is very near to the
world which the modern god" of
war, the ruthless German Fuehrer,
aspires to conquer.
Perhaps there is some elemental
symbolism in the opposition" of the
blood-colored sphere and our own
tortured globe. Homer, In his "Iliad,"
sang of Mars as the abode of a CAL
lous and unfeeling deity" whose
thirst never is appeased" But the
Blind Bard libeled the crimson star.
Astronomers now can-and do-Say
with assurance that there probably
is no human life and therefore no
organized armed conflict in the place
from which Orson Welles' invaders
were alleged to have come. Granted
that it is the first of the superior
planets, and the one most like the
earth" it still is not habitable for
creatures requiring atmosphere like
ours.
The light and the heat of the sun
at Mars are less than half what we
enjoy. 1t is true that observers have
noted clouds, but the greater part of
the surface of the planet is a vast
desert. Modern opinion, considering
those conditions, tends to disbelief in
the existence of a Martian civiliza-
tion of intelligent beings. Professor
w. H. Pickering and Dr. Percival
Lowell, however. it must be conceded,
have argued plausibly for a contrary
judgment. Basing their theory upon
the observation of so-called canals"
discovered by Giovanni Schiaparelli
of Milan in 1877, they contend that
many of these surface markings
are so straight and regular that they
cannot be accounted for as accidental
occurrences of nature"
Certainly, the channels" conSti-
tute fascinating riddle. "A perfect
maze" of them, some with width
of fifty miles and some thousands of
miles in length" have been mapped
by patient watchers in American
observatories. Some of the work
done locally has been especially i'm
portant. 1t was in Washington that
Professor Asaph Hall, using the
twenty-sixinch Clark refractor, de-
tected the two satellites of Mars
Deimos and Phobos- commemorative
two of the five sons of the fiery
warrior of Olympus.

THIS AND THAT
By Charles E. TrdcetueH.

that her rooms are neglected, hence the
annual foray with brooms.
No doubt it is good thing that little
girls are taught to keep after coowebs.
But it Is not so good from the spider
viewpoint.
Our correspondents birds must have
been turtle doves.
One of the distinguishing points-no
pun intended-of the turtle dove is its
points. It's BILL its wings and its tail
are all pointed
The dove has rather peculiar small
head, one which at first strikes the OBJ
server as being far too small for the
rest of it. No matter how much one
admires the dove, at first he will rather
wish that the birds head were larger.
Then in time he will come to see that
perhaps this is the best head for this
bird, after all, since, in a sense, it carries
out the creatures destined intention to
be on the pointed side.
At first the facial expression of the
dove impreSSeS the observer as being
rather on the namby- -pamby side. After
he has seen its fearlessness he comes to
the conclusion that his first impression
was wrong, as so many first impressions
are.
The turtle, or Carolina, dove often Vis-
its nearby Maryland and Virginia in
focks ranging from dozen to four
dozen birds
In the far South, in the spring i'm
mense focks of hundreds of these birds
come to feed in certain fields, at dawn,
and are there greeted by a barrage of
gunshot fire from sportsmen assembled
around the field
In day of defense and conservation of
natural resources it ought to be easy to
have the Carolina dove put on the re-
Stricted list of birds, as is the robin.
Before 1914 the robin, too. was classed
as game bird, and allowed to be shot
at will.
We fed the birds for five years before
a dove came to the elevated feeder by
the dining room window. Before this
they had stuck to the ground feeding
station about so feet from the house.
But this summer first one and then
two doves came to the feeder on the
stake, amid the rhododendrons. Prob
ably the natural surrounding lured the
birds at last.
Thus we have had a grandstand view
of these bulky birds. For their size they
are surprisingly agile. Unlike their rela-
tives, the pigeons, which are afraid to
get into this feeding station, or even to
come beneath it in the shrubbery, the
doves fly in and out all day long
These birds will eat anything in the
grain or seed line which is put out for
the smaller songbirds. While the dove
is claSsed as a songbird, most of us do
not think of it so, although its song has
low, alto-ish quality which reminds
the listener of famous singers The
"coo-oo-oo" of the turtle dove is regarded
by most persons as sad, but certainly no
song is more pleasant to hear in the
summertime, lending real home atmos-
phere to any neighborhood.

occasion of Treitschke's birthday CEN
tenary in 1884. To show the reason for
this it might be revealing to point out
just a few of TreitSchke's leading prin-
ciples from his ''Politik":
state is power. A treaty is a mere
scrap of paper. voluntary limitation
made by the state and subject at any
opportune time to be torn up The
essential function of the state is the
making of war -. War is an ordinance
set up by God -. To think of eternal
peace is not only an impossible but at
the same time an immoral ideal . An
international court is an insult to every
independent State :. :" TreitSchke was
the fiercest opponent of democracy and
of democratic institutions, and Lagarde
said that freedom and democracy are
as fire and water. Clausewitz, the
founder OF modern war strategy, was
Treitschkes pupil.
To study the works of these fathers
of Nazi-ism will be a worthwhile re-
search work for the war and postwar
treatment of Germany which by no
means will be an easy task.
1t also clearly will reveal the true
meaning of Hitler's statement in the
conclusion of "Mein Kampf" that Ger
many must some day become the
master of the world"
