Political Writer Sees
Democrats For Lane

A political writer for the Balti-
mole Sum Albert w. Quinn, seemed
to have the majority of Democrats Of
Garrett county lined up for Cover
nor Lane, rs the result of recent in
tclvicws. However, Lane received
some criticism, along with school
teachers.
lie quoted Hayward Broadwater,
Of Grantsville as believing school
teachers were getting too much
money" and that they were "worse
than they were before salaries were
raised"
His remarks met with prompt dis
agreement by other Democrats of the
county. w. R. Ofutt, Oakland at
torney, who managed Governor
Lanes campaign in the county in
1916, said the Governor is stronger
now than he was then"
There were denials that George P.
Mahoney had been indorsed by mem
bers Of the State Central Committee.
A. r. Matthews said there had been
no Endorsement, Just comm n
courtesy.
Where Broadwater said there was
considerable opposition in the county
to the retail sales tax, Mr.. Matthews
and Mr.. Otfutt said they knew of
little opposition to the sales tax.
The Sun writer declared the Re-
publicans were having some troubles
with the controversy over the school
construction programs. He expected
the Republican ticket to be headed by
Neil c. Fraley, incumbent state
senator who was "likely to have little

Why, then, when the very exist

let, though the facts are undisputcd,
0 far, it has been impossible to
rouse the sort of public support es-
entail to their adoption This fail
re deeply reflects upon the iutelli-
ence and character of the people.
One is the Hoover plan for re-
rganization of the Governments; the
Their is the Baruch plan for legis-
alton which in event of war will
lake possible Immediate effective
lobilization of all our resources, ma
erial as well as manpower From
either of these proposals it it pos
bic reasonably to dissent. The argu-
tents for them are strong and ur-
emit. Literally no one contends they

its. No one suggests there is a trace
politics in either. Yet, though they
e so clear that the average first

1t seem to.
The Hoover plan is designed to re-

infused Federal machine to man

tential Of either economy on efficiency
will be realized. The reason is that
the people have failed to make their
feeling so effectively felt as to pre-
vent their representatives in Con-
gress from yielding to the powerful
iobholders' lobby and the numerous
pressure groups" determined to
hold their own. Mr.. Hoover has indi-
Gated that in a forthcoming speech
he will go as far as the English
language permits in naming names
and fixing blame for the sabotage Of
reforms So terribly needed for the
national stability. 1t is to be hoped he
does exactly that.
As for the Baruch plan, the fail
urc to act seems even less defend
able All Mr.. Baruch, who, like Mr..
Hoover, is above suspicion of parti-
sanship of selfishness, urges is that
in the event of third world war
we do not repeat the tragic blunders
of World Wars | and II. Must we
persist he asks, I'm the mistakes Of
the past? Wasn't the price Of neglect
in the last war high enough? Its
needless prolongation by year
meant a hundred billion dollars need
lessly added to the cost of the war
and hundreds of thousands killed
and wounded-needlessly." TO avoid
the eighteen months costly delay Of
the last war before complete mobili-
cation Of our economic and industrial
power-men, money, food, factories,
profits, prices, taxes and wages
Mr. Baruch urges that we achieve
mobilization readiness before war
begins.
This does not mean going on a war
basis now. 1t does not mean 'regi-
mentation." All it means is that we
be ready to do the things we must
do if war comes Immediately instead
Of again bungling and delaying for
many months at stupendous cost in
lives and treasure. The plan is that
bills to effect full mobilization be en-
acted now but 90 into effect only if
and when war comes The argument
is, first, that this the surest way to
prevent war; second, that if war
cannot be prevented it is the surest
way to win at the least sacrifice. As
with the Hoover plan, there seems
no argument against the Baruch
plan. At any rate, none worthy of
the name has been presented. Fail
ure would be worse than minteli-
gent.

''Projects like Fort Peck are in

BABY ATOM BOMBS
FOR JET FIGHTERS
DEVELOPED FOR Use

WASHINGTON. May IS - w =
The United States has baby A
bombs small enough to be carried
by jet fighter-bombers yet possibly
as powerful as their king-sized
brothers.
Detailed information on the
bombs is a carefully guarded secret.
In fact, there has been no official
announcement as yet that they
exist.
The first definite indication that
such weapons are in production
was cleaned by a reporter seeking
information on discussions among
military leaders over the POSSIBLE
ity of arming this country's North
Atlantic allies with atomic weapons.
The discussions were said to be
based on the possibility of using
lightweight" bombs as tactical
weapons to replace expensive
ground forces in Europe.
While the size of the baby" A.
bombs is secret, the fact that they
can be carried by jet fighter
bombers give some hint of their
weight. The Republic F-S4 Thun-
derjet, a typical jet fighter-bomber
now in use by the Air Force, can
carry two 1,O0o-pound bombs, one
under each wing.

LEGAL BATTERY TO
ENTER FAIRBANKS
ON PROPERTY TAX

Attorney General j. Gerald Will
liams was cue to take off this after
noon by plane for Fairbanks, to
engage in a court battle for the
Alaska property tax, opening Mon
day in district court there.
With him will go his assistant
John Dimond; Fred Hanford
Wrangell chairman-at-large Of the
Board of Equalization, and c. A
Carroll, assessor for the First Di-
vision. Assessors from other divi-
sions will converge on Fairbanks
over the weekend.
The property tax, passed by the
18th Legislature, went under fire
last winter when suit was brought
in Fairbanks by Luther G. Hess
banker and property owner there.
Pending hearing of the case, Dis
trict Judge H. E. Pratt issued an
injunction against the Territory to
prevent collection of the disputed
tax, which for the first time in
Alaska's history. would force prop
erty owners out of an incorporated
town to pay property or real tax.
Tax Commissioner M. P. Mulla-
ney, sailing from Seattle today
aboard the Baranof, is expected to
attend the hearing. but might be
too late. He would fly from here
into Fairbanks.
Plaintiffs in the suit have the
same battery of attorneys who
fought the income tax case heard
earlier this spring. The measure
would place a one percent tax on
all property, the maximum allowed
under the Organic Act.
