Is NOTHING Sacred?

1t seems that nothing is sacred any more
in this age of changing weapons, ships and
techniques in naval warfare. Even the
admirals barge Is in danger of being
scuttled by those who hold that tradition
must give way to new ideas and new
methods. A hint of things to come was
given graduation day guests at Annapolis
when Rear Admiral James A. Holloway, jr,
superintendent of the Naval Academy,
used helicopter in lieu of the customary
boat to visit the aircraft carrier Randolph
on Chesapeake Bay.
The admirals barge was such pretty
thing. Prettier than a helicopter, GER
tainly. Keeping the brass shining on it
was full-time job for the doughty sailors
who manned 1t. And it was heavy with
brass, of the metallic variety, that quickly
lost its luster when the salt spray was
flying. The approach of the admirars
barge was an occasion for the barking of
orders and a scurrying of officers and men,
in preparation for the ceremony of piping
the flag officer aboard. Side boys were
lined up, the ladder was let down and
everything was made shipshape for the
big moment. 1t was always a significant
event
But now all this is threatened with
oblivion. If Admiral Holloways example
is followed generally, those aboard ship no
longer will have the advantage of time to
prepare for the honors while the barge,
easily recognized at distance, makes its
way to the ship. With helicopter an
admiral may drop out of the skies almost
any time, without advance notice. Few
things could be more disconcerting to a
ships skipper or exec than the likelihood
of admirals dropping out of the skies at
any old time and onto almost any part
Of the ship. How will the dignity of the
side boys be maintained If they have to
run from one end of the ship to the other
to meet the admiral's helicopter, and then
have to hold their hats and dodge the
whirling rotor blades? The admiral would
not be the only person up in the air. A
certain amount of progress is all right, but
the Navy should fully consider all the con-
sequences before RELOCATING the aduiral's
barge to the junk bea

House Leadership Should Lead

With help from the House leadership
the omnibus tax-increase bill for the Dis
trict can be approved by the House to-
morrow The Star hopes that such help
will be forthcoming 1t is not the bill that
The Star would prefer But it has been
carefully drawn. 1t represents the con-
illusions of those who have the respon-
sibility in raising local revenue to meet
deficit. 1t is far superior to any bill that
might be expected to emerge from rough
nd-tumble House debate, when many of
those engaging in the debate have not
prepared themselves by study of the Dis
trict's involved financial dilemma. 1t
should either be approved as it is or sent
back to the originating subcommittee for
revision.
Representative Bates of Massachusetts,,
IN charge of the bills preparation looks on
it as temporary method of meeting local
needs for year or so. He is against the
sales tax and he has devised alternative
methods of getting at least some of the
money, from other sources that a sales tax
would produce. Based on a sales tax, the
Bates program would not have been what
1t now is.
The danger faced by the people of the
District is that they may end up with the
sales tax as well as the other taxes pro-
posed originally as a substitute for the
sales tax. If the House does not agree
with Mr.. Bates and the District Commit
tee, therefore, the bill they have prepared
should be sent back to committee and re-
written on other lines. 1t is bad enough
to have taxes levied on people who have
nothing to say about what taxes they are
to pay or how the money is to be spent.
1t will be worse if they are to be plastered
by all manner of taxes in hastily offered
amendments from the floor.
Chairman DirkSen has pointed to the
need for House action tomorrow. We are
approaching the tail end of the session
and not much time remains. The Bates
tax bill represents many weeks of effort,
including lengthy hearings. The leader
ship of the House should get behind the
bill as written, prevent its enasculation by
amendments and send it on its way to the
Senate.
Nobody loves taxes. But the evils are
minimized at least, by such careful prep
aration as marks the Bates program, ap-
proved bV the House District Committee

order to support the market in certain areas.
OF this total, $4,000 bushels of "B" or low grade
potatoes have been dumped" Agriculture
officials point out that at the same time last
year they had purchased 100000 bushels of
the 1916 crop.
Early potatoes are thin skinned and have
high water content, which makes them quickly
perishable. That was the case in the recent
dumping OF potatoes at Foley, Ala, where
pictures showed local Production and Market
ing Administration officials pouring kerosene on
a large pile Of 1ow-grade potatoes.
The Government moved in there to keep the
price from collapsing and then found no
immediate outlet for the stocks. Normally
purple dye is poured over such stocks to prevent
salvaging the potatoes and dumping them on
the market But the dye is scarce and kerosene
was used at Foley.
The kerosene left taste in the mouth Of
many people" department official said.
Early potatoes make up only about as per
cent of the Nations total output. The real
test will come when the late harvest begins
around September is, in such States as Maine
and Idaho.
II there is any consolation in the fact about
u per cent of the 1928 crop of 427,000,000
bushels was wasted or fed to livestock. That
was due to a very Improbable price, estimated
for the seasons average at around SO cents a
bushel.
Total loss from last years 4750oo,ooo- bushel
crop was Is per cent. In marked contrast to
1928, the average 1946 price was 1.22 bushel.
There is another big difference in the two
wears In 1928 farmers did not have DOT,
the magic insecticide which raised hob with
bugs last year and, incidentally had great
deal to do with bringing on the potato glut.

Under the revision of the NO constitution,
the problem of implementing conventions by
legislation should be easier to carry out. for
matters outside the pale Of Congressional power
can be brought before State legislatures. The
revision also requires all member States to
report periodically the extent to which effect is
being given to the provisions Of each ratified
convention Such reports would show the
extent to which the international standard Is
being carried out by administrative action or
collective agreement and would indicate the
obstacles to ratification. This procedure should
afford a truer reflection of actual working con-
ditions in each country than was possible from
any appraisal based merely upon the number OF
formal notifications.
OF course In the chaotic conditions In the
past world war, 1t will be many years before
the ILO can accomplish its goal OF eventually
raising working standards throughout all
industrial countries. In many devastated sec
lions of Europe, the manpower required for
reconstruction is so inadequate that inter-
national agreements for a shorter work week
would be il1-timed. Moreover, the continued use
of forced labor performed by prisoners OF war
makes any comparisons between free labor in
the Western Hemisphere and in Europe highly
unrealstic. Until the basic economy OF Europe
and Asia is at least partly restored, efforts to
bring about uniform standards In the different
countries will be academic. Nevertheless, I'M
less some measure OF equalizng comparable
labor conditions can be achieved. the system Of
free world trade contemplated by the Breton
Woods conference will remain only vision.

legislative influence Of the ILO Is In harmony
