Fire Prevention; What Does It Mean? The coming of E'ire Prevention Week, which will be observed between October 6 and 12. makes it worthwhile to meditate on what fire prevention means to you as an individual, a taxpayer, a homeowner and a worker. Fire prevention saves lives— yours and your loved ones. Thousands of people are now cremated each year—because someone was careless. E'ire prevention is the friend of Die home. Without it, your home may be turned to ashes—and insurance can never replace the many intangible values each home represents. Money cannot compensate for everything. Fire prevention tends to beep taxes dowm. EJack time a fire destroys taxpaytng property, thus removing it from the tax rolls, higher taxes must be paid by all athev property within the community. E'ire prevention keeps insurance rates down. Over a period of years, the rate for each locality m hnsed uum fire loss—many fires mean high rates. '•'ire prevent on ’s the friend ot employment. When a nre destroys a business, jobs are lost, and thousands of dollars in purchasing power is lost, with them. Untold privatipn and misery can result. Fire prevention means progressive towns and cities. Cases are an record w here a single fire, destroying a town’s main industry, has resulted in permanent retrogression, at the expense of properly and all other values in the community. Prevent fire—and save lives and money. Do your part during Fire Prevention Wpek. Q
mueh to keep Lie fire loss, unnecessarily groat as it is, from growing larger. Now everyone should contribute, as never before, time and interest that will make this Week the most successful and productive of all. — o FASTER ACTION NEEDED Wife (reading)—It says here that they have found a sheep in the Himalaya mountains that can run 40 miles an hour.

the; steel mills.
E'rpin January, IrtL, through the first half of 1935, more than 3.750,; 000 gross Jons of scrap have been exported to foreign countries. This figure compares with the total of 2,228,000 gross tons of scrap shipped over the eight-year period 1925
through 1932.
' Increase in Price The extraordinary demand for scrap for export, which began in 1933, has CQfrtributed to a great increase in the price which American steel companies have to pay for scrap. Since 1932, the average price of heavy steel scrap for melting has increased 69 per cent; which compares with an increase of less than 29 per cent in the price of basic pig iron since then, and with
creased to only 2 1-2 times above the average for the period 19251932. The United Kingdom. Canada, Poland, Mexico and China are oilier important consumers of scrap from
this country.
During 1931 shipments of scrap from this country w ere made do 34 foreign markets. Tims far-in 1935 steel scrap has been exported to 28 foreign countries. More than half of the exported
In the eighteen months that ended June 2J, 1985, 51,200 persons met death in motor crashes in this country. More t.liy,n 1,300,000 were

The “decision” holding the National Labor Relations Act imeonstitional has been correctly described by General Hugh Johnson as “an impudent degradation of the whole legal profession.' It was “so raw that even the must uncompromising critics of the administration turned away in disgust or were stunned into silence. For instance, the Washington “Post,” a consistent opponent of social legislation, declared that “Big Business” has construed “liberty to mean license" iu dragging the courts into its efforts to turn back the dock of progress, “One is forced to the conclusion that the report of Die 58 lawyers serves no purpose except as an endeavor* to discredit the administration,” Die “Post” editorially said. “The report is either a thinly-dis-guised political attack or an effort to influence the Supreme Court in a matter which will soon he under judicial consideration.” X X X X As propaganda the campaign of the American Liberty League is on a par with the shameful effort of the utilities to “influence” legislation with a torcut of fake telegrams and letters to members of Congress. The natural impulse cf the average citizen is to laugh off the shoddy gesture, and this would be the way to receive it were there not other eousideratious. The indignity heaped upon the Supreme Court, and the obloquy that has been east upon lawyers as a class cannot be laughed off lightly. Furthermore, the men who pay these legal "haiidj-Andies” have great economic power, and they have indicated that they intend to use it without the restraint of decency or the reverence which the ordinary citizen feels for Die instrumentalities of government. The aiJuaziug doctrine that clients arc not bound hy any law their own lawyers consider unconstitutional is subversive in the extreme. It is the sheer contempt for democratic aud parliamentary processes that usually is associated with dictatorships. Were a soapbox orator to preach such revolutionary lawlessness he would promptly be clapped into jail, X X X X Wc have long passed the stage when the .Supreme Court's usurpation of the right to invalidate a law was a shocking novelty'. That was bad enough, but when high-paid legal retainers of wealthy clients assume to take over the functions of the court and say what is aud what is not law, it is time for every citizen concerned for the future of our institutions to cry out iu protest. It is an ambitious step towards Fascism, combining defiance of the executive branch of government with contempt for the judiciary. It has been said that the "gods first make mad those whom they would destroy.” In the light of its recent high-handed activities, Big Business will scarcely pay heed to that admonition. But it might, with prefit, ponder a solemn warning of General Johnson, himself au able lawyer. “Standing on a thin skin built over an inferno of potential riot and rebellion,” Johnson commented, “the self-appointed interpreters of the Constitution are railing at the flimsy platform which protects them from destruction—-insisting that this protection is ‘unconstitutional’ and offering no other protection in its place.”—Labor.

AN AMBIDEXTROUS DEMON He was a vefonucr, and ho was giving tho audionco a few homo truths. Every now and then he would thumy it clenched fist into his palm as he emphasized sonic vital point in his speech. “Yes, my friends,” he said, “although you are all above sin, you .mist beware of the demon. The demon is chained to the wall, waiting to jump out and catch you. “If j'O.u give him the slightest chance he'll stretch out his hand in front and grab you! Or he’ll stretch out to the right and grab you! Or he’ll stretch out to Die left and grab you! He’ll even stretch out behind and grab you!” This was too much for a man in .he second row of seats, who, vismg to his feet, shouted: “Weil, hang it all, the blessed thing might as well he loose.” zO - NO SEX A.PPEAt With no intended disrespect tor Scottish customs, King George of England presents a strange appearance to American eyes in a picture which shows him in kilts. A.s au exception to the rule that he king can do no wrong, he must lot go about without his pants.
A bronze memorial marker has een placed at Ft. Harrison, Fla., o mark the spot which served as r health resort for soldiers.
