the parking meter r similar. The
streets of our cities are public thor
oughfares. They were created for the
free use of the citizens. Yet in many
cities motorists must pay for the right
to park at certain curbs. Perhaps the
parking meter might be unconstitution-
al, inasmuch as the curb is part of the
street, and parked vehicles are in fact
at rest in the street.
Nevertheless, the parking meter has
proved here, and presumably in many
other cities, a means Of enabling motor
lists to find a berth for a limited time
which without the meter would not be
available during the entire day.
The parking meter does not wholly
solve the parking problem anywhere
but at least it eases the lot of motor
lists who otherwise would have to park
many blocks from their downtown des-
tination and is not to be condemned
even if the streets originally were built
for the free use Of the people.

Hard On the People

Naturally the people are pleased that
a mine strike has been avoided. but
they could wish that the settlement
would not cost them so heavily. The
advance in miners pay, variously re-
ported as 81 cetns and Al IL cents an
hour, will be passed on to the con-
and constitute a new advance in
the cost of living.
The fight against initiation, which
mas been and obviously is still more
theoretical than practical, will suffer as
a result Of this victory of John L.
the miners boss. This is the
more likely because the mine wage dis
pute settlement inevitably will set the
gauge for other union bosses in their
wage negotiations with industry at the
expiration of existing labor contracts.
How can prices come down, as they
must it we are to escape wildfire In
flation, with wages going up? And how
can we escape the inevitable collapse
that initiation creates if prices continue
to rise?

Truck Lane BObs Up

The truck lane controversy is reviv-
ed. The City Council, with the city
engineers in attendance, proposes to
thresh out the proposal for an around
the-city route and has air pictures and
other data on hand already to aid the
Investigation.
The forthcoming meeting and any
route tentatively settled upon will face
as stiff opposition, presumably, as has
followed all other sessions on the SUBJ
ject. 1t is impossible to please every
body, whether on a truck lane or any,
thing else, as the City Council has
good reason to know.
But whether the Council reaches
definite agreement next week or not,
it is to be noted that the stream of
traffic of Third street, both motor car
and truck, remains at the customary
height and the rest of the people liv-
ing there is still disturbed as distress
singly as usual.
1t will be impossible to establish a
truck lane beyond all inhabited neigh
borhoods. AS City Manager Benson
told the Council on Wednesday, there is
really mo such thing as a 'round-the-
town route" But it is obvious that q
route could be created which would not
traverse a thickly populated area, as
is the case on Third street.
Certainly the estimated $25, 900
which a different route would involve
would be money well spent, provided
the new route caused minimum dis
comfort to the smallest number of res
idents, and at the same time was not
too costly in time or money for operat-
ing truck firms.

WONDER QUESTIONS
WHAT is A RIVER DELTA?

If we look at the map of Egypt,
we shall find the Nile, which is
a very good example of a river
with a delta at its mouth. The
river, when it meets the sea,
spreads out into a shape some
thing like a triangle. Now that is
the shape Of the Greek capital
letter D, the name Tor which is
delta; and so land Of this shape
made at the mouth of some riv-
ers is called a river delta.
A river consists OF moving wa
ter, and the motion of the water
has power to rub away from the
led and the banks a large guam
tity of solid material. This is not
melted or dissolved in the river
water, but is carried down by it.
Now. when the river. water meets
the sea, it's pace slackens. be-
cause it is opposed by the weight
of the sea water. The solid matter
feld in the river water IS likely
to sink and form a wide bed CT
bank of mud.
Deltas. are nearly always found
az the mouths of rivers that flow
into lakes or inclosed seas or
sheltered CULTS, because these
seas and lakes do not have strong
currents or tides to carry away
the solid matter. Deltas grow
quite fast. The Mississippi River
is depositing so much solid mat
ter (sediment) at it's mouth that
the shore line is moving into the
Gulf Of Mexico a mile in about
sixten years.

It's Rather Perplexing

Congress may, or may not, get
around to reconsidering abolition Of
the poll tax. Whether it does or not.
the poll tax is perplexing. It is this
way: the right to vote is bestowed
without cost upon properly %enfranchiz-
ed persons, but despite this free gift,
they must pay for the privilege of cast
ing a ballot in public elections.
Some states permit men to work
out their poll tax on the roads. Others
use poll tax revenue, some for support
Of schools, some for general funds.
some for highways, etc. Even the con-
Trajectory element involved in the levy
itself does not thus wholly prove the
tax unjustified, though it has its draw
backs.

one basic fact seems to have been
ignored: in recent months the
United States has been taking a
terrible beating in the business Of
waging theological warfare.
The shooting erded two. years
ago and the end Of hostilities was
officially declared last New
Years eve. But the war isn't over
by a long shot. Only the weapons
and the enemies have changed. In
stead of guns and bombs, the am
munition is propaganda, diplo-
macy, food, loans, grants, relief
missions, money. Instead OF
nazism, the public enemy number
one would seem to be commu-
Inism.
The Nazis were licked with guns

way to lick communism would
seem to be with a counter-attack

RAIN SIGNS

There is a great deal of human
interest in the signs Of the old
timers for the coming of rain and
vice versa. For instance, when
the horns Of the moon curve up
rain holds back. In Maryland
this is spoken of as a dry moon.
A halo moon indicates storms, as
do twinkling stars. A mackeral
sky is portent of rain and wind,
but neither long and both of them
mild. When clouds are square
and firm, when smoke fingers
over water or a distant objects
clear, there is always sure to be
a storm. OF course, barometer
readings may upset all these ira
ditions, for the barometer gen.
orally knows best.-The Bentz-
