Photonrophy's Advance

Photography has come long way
since the day, more than century ago,
when the French painter, Louis Daguerre,
first developed picture on a light
sensitive metal plate. Just how far the
science of photography has advanced is
revealed at the International Photo
graphic Exposition in the Armory This
world fair" of the picture taking indus
try is the first of its kind ever held in
America Washington is fortunate in hav-
ing such an important educational show
In our midst.
The daguerreotype, the big black
boxes of early portrait studios, the ex-
plosive flash gun and other pioneering
gadgets are only curiosities today They
have been replaced by efficient movie
and still cameras of professional and
home types, supersensitive plates and roll
film for color as we'll as black-and- white
pictures, simple flash equipment and
innumerable other Improvements. Pho
Biography has become major industry,
an important profession and a hobby of
millions of amateur enthusiasts. 1t is
appropriate, therefore, that an internal
tional exposition should be devoted to
the remarkable achievements which have
been made in the Photographic field both
here and abroad in recent years

Young to The Hague

Both the United States and the
Netherlands will be fortunate in having
Philip Young as American Ambassador
to The Hague. The former Civil Service
Commission chairman and personnel
adviser to the President is we'll qualified
to succeed H. Freeman Matthews in the
European diplomatic post when the lat
ter leaves on June for reassignment.
Mr.. Young, son of the industrialist,
Owen Young, forsook the business world
for a civilian career in public service.
This career, begun in 1884 as Govern
ment analyst, was interrupted by service
with the Navy during World War II and
later by term as dean of the Graduate
School of Columbia University. Before
the war he served also with the Treasury
Department and with the Lend-Lease
Administration. He was called back to
Washington early in 1858 by President
Eisenhower to become head Of the Civil
Service Commission and a presidential
aide on civil service matters. In accept
ing his resignation from those duties,
the President had indicated that he had
in mind another important job for Mr..
Young The diplomatic assignment is a
well-merited recognition of the unusual
capabilities of public servant of widely
varying talents.

Steps Toward Safety

The Maryland House. properly con-
cerned over the rise in traffic accidents on
the States highways, has approved two
steps which should contribute subStan-
TALLY to the safety of all who use Mary
lands growing network OF roads. The
lower chamber has voted (l) to establish
a point system for judging the compe
tency of automobile drivers and (2) to
require the relicensing of drivers every
three years. Both plans are in operation
in many other jurisdictions, with good
results.
AS for the periodic renewal of per-
mits to drive, Maryland today is the only
State that issues lifetime" licenses. In
fact, 1t is said that the cluttered files of
the permit Office contain evidence that
persons long since dead still are listed as
qualified drivers The records have been
described as hopelessly out Of date-so
much so that difficulty often Is expert
enced in tracing drivers who have been
involved in accidents
Under the system favored by the
House, each driver would be allowed to
renew his permit by mail, but could be
called in for driving test or other ex-

Vehicles felt that his driving record was
poor enough to warrant denomination.

City on the Brink

San Francisco's latest experience
with her old enemy, the San Andreas
Fault, fortunately was not of a disastrous
nature. But the several earthquakes
which shook the city and adjacent areas
last week are a reminder that great
rift in the earth'S crust extends along
the California coast, posing an ever-pres-
ent threat to cities and towns along its
edge.
Biologists have found that such
cracks in the earth'S skin exist in num-
Der Of scattered places around the globe.
Luckily for San Francisco, the San An
dreaS Fault causes horizontal instead of
vertical breaks in the land surface. Yer
tical slippages could cause catastrophe
upheavalS, such as led to one of history's
worst earthquakes in Assam, India, in
1897. The San Andreas slippages always
have been sidewise, however causing one
layer of earth to override another or to
separate from another. The San Fran
cisco earthquake of 1905 resulted from
Slippages varying from to 81 feet along
the edge of the rift. The recent distor-
tionS were of relatively small extent,
however. The nature of the San An
dreas threat did not become widely
apparent until Investigations of the 1906
disaster were completed. A commission
of inquiry found that the rift, begun
perhaps thousands of years ago, extends
from the Salton Sea area of Southern
California through the Golden Gate re-
gion of San Francisco and thence along
the coast to Oregon.
No one knows when, if ever, the
earth'S crust will come to rest in Cali
fornia, ending the potential danger of
further settlement and sliding. Geolo-
gists-and residents along the California
coast-hope that the readjuStments of
1905 and since will lead to long era of
inmobility. But an element of risk will
remain as long as the earth's skin con-
tinues to shrink and crack with age
