And Then What?

There are times when the news
dispatches raise questions which 60 un-
answered.
A recent story from Annapolis, Md,
contains the information that a 25-year-
old Navy hospital attendant has been
dishonorably discharged and sentenced to
five years in prison. 1t also states that he
was found guilty of attempting to chloro-
form the three-year-old daughter OF an
officer at the Naval Academy.
It does not tell why he tried to kill this
child. It does not tell whether he is
mental case, or whether the Navy tried to
find out. An even more important ques-
ton is left unanswered, and, Of course,
could not be answered. Five years from
now, less time off for good behavior, this
man will be turned loose on the public
What happens then?

Hope Springs Eternal

The action which the House Agriculture
Committee has taken on margarine is Tar
from being an unmiXed blessing.
The bill which has been approved by the
committee would do away with the 10
cent pound spite tax on colored mar
garine and the -fourth-cent tax on the
uncolored variety. At the same time 1t
would forbid interstate shipment of yellow
margarine but permit its sale IN those
States in which it is manufactured and
the sale is not prescribed by State law
Evidently the intent is to do away with
the flfty-year- discriminatory tax on
margarine, while putting the untaxeo
colored variety on hard-to-get basis.
The result would be absurd For in
stance, housewives in Virginia and the
District would have to continue to pay the
1O-cent tax, but their neighbors across the
line in Maryland could buy it without tax.
In all, there are but thirty States which
permit any sale of yellow margarine. And
only thirteen of these have manufactur-
ing plants within their borders.
So the net effect of this bill, if it should
become law, would be to permit the un-
taxed sale of yellow margarine in thirteen
States, while continuing the discrimina-
tory tax in thirty-five States and the
District.
If the special interests which have been
perpetrating this margarine tax fraud on
the public for so many years can get away
with this it will not be bad days work
from their selfish point of view. But they
ought not to get away with it. The mar
garine tax is not only indefensible; it has
even failed in its selfish aim to protect the
butter industry by killing off the margarine
industry Once again there is hope that a
clean sweep can be made, and the people
ought to insist that their congressman
wipe from the books this iniquitous tax
and all other restraints.

the head" when he accused the schools of
being permeated from top to bottom with an
unhealthy emphasis on administrative
detail and red tape.
Two other very marked spots for criticism
mentioned by DR.. Strayer were the poorly
equipped libraries and the inefficient man
agement of the school cafeterias. Funds for
providing reference books are astonishingly
inadequate in the high school divisions and
lacking entirely in the elementary schools
IT children are not taught, when young, to
be lnquisitive-minde and to acquire the
habit Of searching out knowledge for them
selves, it is too late to try to teach them
this after they reach the high school level.
The libraries in the Washington schools are
not used to the advantage that they could
and should be, though this is not the fault
OF the librarians.
School Cafeterias Unsatisfactory.
Ihe school cafeterias. supposed to be nom
profit organizations, vary greatly in the sew
eral buildings where cafeterias have been set
up. In many of the schools, no cafeterias
have been provided at all 1t is quite Gus
tomary sight to see not only large numbers
OF students but many faculty members as
well bring lunches each day, rather than pay
the too-hlgh prices for the too-poor food of
the school cafeteras
DR.. Strayer's report, calling for a "vastlv
revised school system, with more emphasis on
education and less on administrative red
tape" is bit of advice which should be
heeaed by those who are concerned-chiefly
the parents of school children It is high
time that the public become aroused to some
OF the shortcomings of their schools-short-
comlngs which are so obviously due to poor
administration and supervision.

Sol Bloom

Sol Blooms autobiography, published
last fall, was pleasantly received by the
critics as a typically American success
story.that derived added charm from the
zest and good nature with which the
author told his tale.
1t may have been American. But there
was nothing typical about it. Sol Bloom,
very unusual man, lived anything but
usual life. Impoverished as boy, he bent
his energies to the pursuit of money and
was so successful that he was able to
"retire" at nineteen-having produced a
play and built theater-to travel around
the world. He returned to this country to
begin a new career in the show business
and to build two other successful careers,
in the music publishing and real estate
businesses, that made him independently
wealthy.
Having conquered such worlds he went
into politics at the age of fifty-three. He
died twenty-six years, almost to the day,
after he came to Washington as fresh
man Congressman from the old Nine
teenth, later the Twentieth District in
Manhattan. And he made of his career in
public life a record that any man might
envy, identifying himself prominently with
most of the important wartime and post
war legislation that guided the country's
policy in international relations.
He was shrewd, unrestrained by modesty,
full of energy and ideas and sense of
publicity values In Congress he won the
affectionate regard of his colleagues for
his sincerity, his friendliness and his
complete loyalty to the country that gave
him his opportunity and rewarded him for
having utilized it.

Changes in Staggering Hours

To the Editor Of The Star:
During the war the opening and closing
hours Of the various Government depart
ments in the Washington area-and perhaps
in other areas-were staggered so that the
morning and evening transportation prob
lem would be alleviated. That was an excel
lent beginning. Streetcar. bus and automo-
bile transportation have benefited.
But what about the adaptability Of Gov
ernment employees to the change? Many in
dividuals have adapted themselves very we'll:
however, many others still are struggling to
get to work on time, to reach the grocery
store before it closes, or to cram in little
reading or other form of recreation in the
few hours between dinner and bedtime.
An individual who finds his working hours
a hardship-and there are many such in
dividuals-has no alternative but to trans
fer to another department, providing he can
find a vacancy in the work in which he
specializes.
In fairness to all Government employees
who are adversely affected by the staggered
hours, those officials who have the authority
to readjust the schedule should consider the
wisdom of inaugurating a system whereby
all of the departments would automatically
change their opening and closing hours at
fixed intervals, e.g., every three or five years.

Not Near Exhaustion

Judging from expert reports made the
other day to a meeting of the American
Institute of Chemical Engineers In Los
Angeles, there is little reason to worry
about the danger of our petroleum reserves
being exhausted in hurry. Not many
months ago there was much gloomy talk
to the effect that twenty or thirty years
from now there would be virtually no oil
or gasoline left in the United States. The
talk-an echo of similar official and un-
official predictions made periodically ever
since our first gusher came in-did not
make much sense, but nevertheless lot
of people believed in it.
In fact. the belief still fingers on in many
minds, and for that reason some attention
should be paid to the reports just heard in
Los Angeles The reports have to do with
shale oil. According to the experts re-
sponsible for them, the shale oil ''in sight"
in the Rocky Mountains area adds up to
a reserve of 3OO,OO00O0 10000 barrels, or
almost ten times the total that has been
produced to date in the United States
since the founding of the petroleum in
dustry. The figure is over and above the
100, 1000, ,000,0 900 barrels estimated to be
within reach in our current proved re-
serves" under the ground in new under
ground discoveries yet to be made, and in
our offshore continental shelf.
Accordingly, If the shale-oil estimate is
correct, we have within our own borders
and territorial waters a reserve of some
thing like 100000 100000 barrels. That is
enough to meet our needs, at the present
rate of consumption, for another $50 years
or so. Worriers, of course, may still argue
that the experts have overestimated the
sfale deposits and underestimated the
cost of getting petroleum from them.
Even 80, they should find 1t reassuring
that any possible error involved is offset
by the fact that we have yet another
reserve to fall back on, If need be. The
additional reserve is in the field OF our
natural gas and coal. The gas can be
readily converted into about $1,000 100000
barrels, and the coal can be processed into
enough oil and gasoline to cover our re-
ouirements for at least 1000 years.
To mention figures OF this sort is not
to minimize the need for constant ex-
ploratory work and for steady progress in
developing new techniques in conservation
and economical exploitation of our petro-
leum resources There is no reason for
eomplacency on that score. At the same

Folsom Man in Virqiniu

The attention of American ethnograph-
lists just now Is directed to the area In
which the Buggs Island, Roanoke River:
dam project is to be developed. This neigh
borhood, embracing portions of southern
Virginia and northern North Carolina,
has been examined by scientists of the
Smithsonian Institution in anticipation OF
its being flooded. The field expedition has
listed 81 sites of ancient human occu-
pancy-34 villages, II camps, Al flint
workshops of great antiquity and two
historic iron working centers
Carl F. Miller, reporting on the finds,
says evidence gathered . points to
two main cultural horizons, an extremely
early culture characterized by an eastern
variant of Folsom as distinguished from
the true Folsom found in the western
part of the United States, and very
much later pottery-making group. Evil
dence also points toward other rather
early groups, later than Folsom but earlier
than the Indians as known today" All
that distinguishes the primitive peoples
referred to is peculiar technique OF
chipping projectiles They made their
small spearheads differently from other
warriors and hunters. Their typical i'm
plement is a laterally auted weapon
named from discoveries near Folsom, New
Mexico between 1925 and 1928. Related
forms have been unearthed over much of
the North American continent, with a
concentration along the high plains east
of the Rocky Mountains"
Now, Mr.. Miller and his colleagues do
not affirm that the prehistoric inhabitants
of the Buggs Island terrain once lived In
the West. Folsom implements may have
travelled from community to community
without any of those communities as such
travelling very far. Cultural forms are
exportable Thus skeletons painted with
ochre have been found in very old sites
in southern France and in Massachu-
setts. It does not follow that the same
tribes lived at both places. Indeed, 1t Is
unlikely that they ever heard of each
other. Their culture, perhaps, moved
round the world, from hand to hand,
from mind to mind, in vast network of
human communication.

conceivably may have been of local in
vention. It is described as IAN additional

date indicated for this novelty might be

Nondrinkers Embarrassed

To the Editor Of The Star:
There seems TO be a take-for- granted at
titude here in Washington. and I might say
in most cities, that all adults indulge In
some form of alcoholic beverage. For in
stance, whenever a person goes to call on
another person, the first thing the host will
her coat and then in the same breath offer
him or her glass of beer or cocktail.
For the host to receive the astonishing re-
ply, mo, thank you. don't care for either" )"
is something most hosts don't know how to
cope with.
Instead of accepting the response with
an understanding attitude, host all too
many times is completely amazed and con-
tinues to insist that the guest must have at
least one drink This goes on to the point
where the nondrinker is embarrassed, and if
other people are present he is made to feel
very self-conscious. Such an individual is
loath to call on this host again or attend
any function where he would encounter such
an atmosphere.
If people concerned would be little more
polite and would bear in mind that all peo-
pie do not indulge in alcoholic beverages,
and that it does not behoove such individ-
ualS to accept drinks in order to enjoy
themselves or to feel comfortable, nondrink-
ers would enjoy going out much more.
Also, with the great attention given to the
detrimental effect alcoholic liquor has
caused in this Nation, those not caring to
pursue such tastes might not be forced to
indulge so readily. THOMAS A. HART,
