LET’S PROTEGE OURSEL VES ■pTIREAT BRITAIN’S new government is continuing with her naval building program which cadis for a total of fiftyseypn light cruisers. ’ There is nothing in the limitation treaties to curtail such a program in the least. Any nation may build as many light cruisers, under. 10,000 tons, as it chooses to build or can pay for. These light cruisers are among the most effective of modern fighting ships. ‘Three or four of them can be built for the price of a fair battleship. ’President Coolidge has made it clear that he is not at all perturbed by Great Britain’s program. That’s good. Nothing is to be gained by being perturbed. But some of the interpreters of the ‘ ‘ White House attitude ’ ’ have informed the world that President Coolidge looks upon such large additions to the British fleet as just so much protection for the United States, without cost to our National Treasury. It is difficult to believe that any American statesman can tiew a growing foreign navy in this way. It is likely that the President is being misinterpreted. The American people do not want to depend upon any foreign navy to protect them. They have no desire to become a British protectorate* however much our interests and those of Great Britain may chance to coincide at this time. There is but one safe program for American National defense : v LET’S PROTECT OURSELVES! x Only thus can we be reasonably sure that the protection is entirely in the interests of the' United States and its people.

HE LOST, BUT IT WAS A GOOD FIGHT , ' 0 SHE United 'States: Senate, after doing circles around the Muscle Skoals question, has finally settled on the Underwood bill, providing for the leasing of that great power source to a private concern within six months. The matter now goes to a conference of Senate and House committees, from which, in all probability, will come a bill not very different from the Underwood measure. Thus ends one of the jjreatest fights to retain a great public resource in public hands, with the champiofi for public operation, Senator Norris of Nebraska going down to defeat. * Norris made a brilliant and almost single-handed fight against the organized forces, not only of the Administration, bu# of a large part of the Democratic party as well. Norris lost that for which he was fighting specifically, the public operation of Muscle Shoals. But he won something. - A t . He caused his opponents to put in their leasing act better safeguards for the interests of the public. He turned the attention of the public to the value of one of its greatest natural resources, water power. He made folks think a little more about their resources, made them understand a little better what it means to have them exhausted. There are other still greater water power sites yet in the public hands, the St. Lawrence and the Colorado Rivers, for example. When the fights for the disposition of these sites take place, the public will understand a little earlier in the game what it’s all about—thanks to the courage of George W. Norris of Nebraska. CALVIN COOLIDGE ON RENTS fwTj HEN Calvin Coolidge was elected President of the United States his legal residence was one-half of a double house in Northampton, Mass. He had lived there when LieutenantGoverntfr and then Governor of Massachusetts The rent was S3O a month. As President, Mr. Coolidge lives in a very nice house in Washington, for which he doesn’t pay any rent, but he hasn’t forgotten the viewpoint of the rent-payer. It must be said for the Coolidges that they do not fail to appreciate their blessings. Probably the nicest story that is told about Mrs. Coolidge has to do with the first summer of her residence in the White House. Asked if she intended |o spend the summer in New England, she is said to have replied: ' v ’ “No. This is the nicest house in which we ever have lived—and we may not be here for long! ” A perfect human expression, entirely without false pretense. ’ * The same simplicity characterizes President Collidge’s attitude toward the rent problem in tfcfe city of Washington. Shown that the thousands of Government workers are being unmercifully gouged by landlords, he has taken a hand in the- situation. He is backing a bill in Congress to abate Washington real estate abuses. His view is that the Government cannot carry on if its employes have no place to live. Remembering Northampvon, he cannot see the necessity for rents of SBO, SIOO, $125 for three and four-room flats. A mass of technical verbiage has been piled up by the opponents of rent control in Washington, but an incident within Coolidge's own time in the capital has served to enlighten him >evond danger of confusion. One Government department which occupies a rented building recently had its rent raised from $36,000 to $75,000. Litigation %jtween the owner and the concern which had bought it for him revealed a pyramiding of val- ' ues in the course of three years from $550,000 to $2,500,000, through a series of, transfers and retransfers —wash sales and that sort of thiDg. The very prominent finance firm which handled the transaction has just been dropped from member - sliip in the Washington real estate board. Coolidge’s rent bill isn’t yet through Congress, but there is evidence that he has started a house-cleaning in the real estate busings at the National C^pitoL

BIG PAY IN GOVERNMENT SERVICE IS NOT SO VERY BIG

Retirement of Hughes Again Brings Up Subject of Salaries. Times Washinoton Bureau, Neic York Avenue. ASHINGTON, Jan. 17.—The announced reason for Secretary Hughes’ retirement being the necessity to earn more money, Washington is now engaged in discussing one of its favorite topics—the small salaries paid Government officials. Most everybody in official life looks upon official salaries as insufficient. This is especially true of those who have to live on their salaries. A large portion of the men In pubUc life have independent means and are able to spend much more than their Government pay in keer.-Ing up with the routine pf official life. A few have not. These have a hard time of it. They are forced to worry 'as much over their household bills as over the details of their jobs. The development of Government salaries is interesting. Thomas Jefferson , who first filled the office now being vacated by Secretary Hughes, received $3,500 a year. The same was paid Alexander Hamilton, who then had Andrew Mellon’s at the head of the Treasury partment. The one- other cabinet job, at the outset of our Government, was that of the Secretary of War. He was paid <?nly $3,000. Incidentally, the chief clerk of the State Department got SBOO, while the chief clerk of the Treasury got only S6OO. All other clerks got SSO0 —or less. This was in the days when a dollar bought a lot of groceries. Justice Got $4,000 In that same first period of the Government the chief justice received $4,000 and his associate justices $3,500. The President of the United States had his salary fixed at $25,000 after'George Washington had filled the office for six months to determine what It actually cost a man to be President. The Vice President was given $5,000. The Senators and members of the House fixed their own value at $6 a day and mileage. The law provided that they should be paid only for days they attended sessions, save when they became sick on the way to Washington.' For avoidable absences they were to, be docked the full amount of their day’s pay. Whether any member ever was docked can not be said; the law is somewhat the same today, but there is no record of members .being docked nowadays. The first attempt of salaries to catch up with the higher cost of living appears to have been made in 1816. The Senators and Representatives decided they were worth $1,500 a year to the country and that the speaker and president pro tern, of the Senate were worth $3,000. The following session, however, the act decreeing this was repealed and the $6-n-day wage restored. Then in 1818 they" boosted themselves $2 a day, making it SB. Given Increases

The act of 1816, however, had raised the Secretary of State and the Secretary of the Treasury to $5,000, the Secretaries of War and Navy to $4,500 and the Postmaster General and the Attorney General to $3,000.' These raises remained in force until 1853, when the salaries of all Cabinet members was made SB,OOO, and the same was given to the Vice President. In *1856 the Congressmen fixed their own salaries at $3,000 a year, with $6,000 for the speaker and the president pro tern, of the Senate. time between 1856 and 1873 they were raised again to $5,000. A conscientious search through the statutes enacted In those y|Ars failed to reveal the act in quesden, butJTyler Page, clerk of the House, says it was in 1866. In any case, it must he to, as revealed by the story of the famous “Salary Grab Act” of ,1873. Congress that year raised the President’s salary to $50,000 a year, the Vice President’s to SIO,OOO tftid the same for the Cabinet members. To themselves they voted $7,500 a year —the amount they now receive—and to the Speaker and President Pro Tern., SIO,OOO. Their caused a terrific uproar, but it was largely due perhaps, to the fact that they made the salary increase applicable to the members of that very Con"gntss. . •. . Because of the outcry Congress at the following session repealed all of the act of 1873 except that part giving the President $50,000. This left their salaries at $5,000, the Vice President’s at SB,OOO, and the same tot the Cabinet members. These figures remained unchanged until 1907 when the members raised the congressional salary to $7,500 and the Vice President’s and Cabinet members’ tp $12,000 and those* are their wagps today. The President’s salary was increased in 1909 to $75,000, with an allowance of $25,000 fpr traveling expenses. a ■ ' W V •; \ ’ Echoing Back By HAL COCHRAN Sometimes old yesterday has its appeal.

RIGHT HERE IN INDIANA

By GAYLORD NELSON

Sympathy SHE judge pro tern, in traffic court Thursday lectured the defendants. “this is the worst time to speed,” he said. “Streets are covered with ice and snow. Cars turned loose on them are engines of dest motion” to NELSON thirty - miles - anhour speed, or better, were assessed s]. each. The * motorcycle policeman, who made one arrest, testified he had to do fifty miles an hour tb overhaul the offender. Nevertheless that defendant was discharged—because he has a large family to support. Perhaps the motorist who slaughtered Miss Whitaker the other night also supports a large family. She was killed. Did it make any difference to her whether the fatal automobile was driven by a fainily man or a bachelor? It is the act—in all law violations —that harms society. Punishment should be based on that act, not on the offender's marital responsibilities. Sympathy is a great, human quality, but it is over worked. Less sympathy for offenders and quicker sympathy for outraged law would look well In court.

Wealth SHE wealth of Indiana Is estimated by the United States Census Bureau, in a recent report, to be $8,829,726,000. The wealth of the State as assessed for tax purposes is $5,350,000,000. Why the discrepancy? Property legally exempt from taxation is partly responsible. The value of $1,000,000,000 is placed on property in this class. Even taking this Into consideration the gap between the two estimates is impressive. Failure to assess at true cash value and the faulty memory of many taxpayers—who misplay wealth that Is not nailed down in plain sight—while assessment is in progress, are the chief‘factors causing the difference. Everyone concedes the necessity of taxation, but wants the other fellow to carry the heavy end of the load. Wealth that Is mobile hides out. Wealth represented by real estate, however, can’t crawl out of sight In the owner’s pocket to escape the assessor. Consequently land bears a disproportionate share of the hue burden. No taxation all taxpayers become scrupulously honest —Ca;n altogether prevent the heavier burden on the more obvious forms of wealth. However, assessing all property, of whatever nature, at full cash value, would lessen the inequalities.

A By-Product of Hypocrisy

By M. E. TRACT RIME can become an art, hut only where it is sustained, or e—.l, winked at, by a large percentage of the people. There was a time when smuggling and outlawry furnished England much'of her romance. The day may come when children yet unborn will read about bootleggers, Just as we read about Rob Roy, Messieur Clubin and the Doons. Scolded and excoriated in the Tom Sims Says One who married a man with a past tells us now she doesn't expect so much of the future. The hardest time for a man to get up in the world is every morning. What makes us mad is a man who thinks he is as wise as an owl because he is always hooting something. Perhaps the funniest things on earth are middle names. New brooms sweep clean. New dresses don’t sweep at all. Keeping your credit good! costs a lot of money but is worth more. Maybe we could get Congress to abolish January and February. Trouble with flying,, to pieces is gettlhg yourself together correctly again. Mafly a perfect dream of a girl ft you wish, but remember dreams usually go by contraries. The road to success you hear so .much about never had been fully mapped. A man Is not known so much by the company" he keeps as he is by the idea he keeps. You can’t keep a good man or a good year down. Be fair to the auto drivers. You seldom see a car go up on the sidewalk after a Victim. a Blessed are the poor in salary for they shall pay no income tax. If these big auto dealers keep on cutting their prices it will be cheaper ‘o buy than to steal one. Many a permanent wave looks like a crime wave. NBA Service. Inc.)

Parking TWO ordinances restricting automobile parking will be presented to the city council at its next meeting—one to abolish center parking on Kentucky Ave., the other vb prohibit day-time parking on several downtown blocks. What to do with automobiles dewntown is becoming every day a more acute question. Parking them at the curb in serried ranks is increasing the traffic congestion on the. busiest blocks. Os course a no-parking' rule will result in hardship and inconvenience. Many buslhess men, and their henchmen, motor to work. During their hours of toil thair cars must be left some place. They can’t be parked under chair seats like chewing gum temporarily in disuse. Consequently every available foot of space on the busiest thoroughfares in town is preempted. The condition is menacing to moving vehicles, to pedestrians, whose view is obstructed, and may prevent effective fire fighting and other emergency demands. * Effective parking restrictions in the most congested area would ‘take a large bite out of the downtown traffic problem. By prohibition of center parking on Kentucky Ave. that thoroughfare might become a useful member of society instead of a frowzy street without pride of ancestry or hope of posterity. Cookery JLADYS DAVIDSON of Crawfordsville was declared winner in baking—in the girls’ club work section—at the State agricultural conference at Purdue University, which closed yesterday. To win this honor she made in the past year 108 loaves of yeast bread, ninety-fbur yeast rolls, 367 biscuits. 275 cookies, sixty-four pies and twenty six cakes. Her year hasn’t been given over entirely to frivolity, that’s sure. Single-handed she has chased the spector of famine from one Hoosier ’household.

Other State winners in girls’ club work turned in equally remarkably records of industry. The canning champion put up 1,271 quarts V>f fruits, vegetables and other comestibles. These Hoosler maids don’t murder their - mothers In fretful momenta. They are too busy learning home economics to crave “pep, jazz and gin.” Nevertheless, they deserve notice. Domestic happiness is more dependent on cookery than on flashier accomplishments. A good oook is a greater family asset than a radio set or a case of gin. When a girl -wins honors in baking it is assurance that somewhere, sometime, there will be established another solid home. Buch a championship is not an empty honor for the girl—or her future husband.

open, he must experience a better reception when the lights go out. Otherwise, how could, there be so many of him? I am told that It takes abqpt 100 customers to support a bootlegger In decent shape. I am told that he is not an Infrequent sojourner at State capitals when the Legislature assembles. I am told that he has even been discovered in Washington. He has certainly caused a great increase in the number of lawenforcing officers, and has thus helped quite a few people to establish contact with the public treasury. He has become the commonest defendant at the bar of justice—commoner than the thief, forger, embezzler or murderer. H r “‘ lIS übiquity, variety and multiplicity are astounding, yet for each one of him there are 100 or so respectable oitlzens to back up the trade. How many of this 100 would convict him If oft a jury? How many advocate laws that make his traffic a penitentiary offense? How many keep up an appearance that denies their connection with his business? I am one of those who believe that crime doesn’t flourish where people are against it, but that lip music is never a sure sign that they* are against it. •We are fine prohibitionists by word of mouth, and even finer by acts entitled acts, but somehow the thing is not working out consistently. > I don't say that it won't, but if it -does, there will have to come a change. For one thing, the army of bootleggers will have to diminish, and that*is impossible so long as customers are so numerous and so free with their cash. The bootlegger Is not a fool, in the business sense of the word. He knows the risk, and he wouldn’t be taking it without substantial hope of reward. He is not supported by men of small means, by the reds from Russia, the agitators, or soapbox orators. They haven’t the money to spare. His sustenance obviously comes from places where bank rolls are fat, and where opulence becomes a substitute for character in creating an atmosphere of respectability. Let the bootlegger take his medicine, even as he- takes his chance, but give a thought now and then to the people that keep him going. It IvfU make the problem easier to

To the Editor of The Timet > mWAS very much Interested In your articles on the front page of The Times in regard to Cleveland’s city government, of which I know a little something. I am a trainman on the Knickerbocker run between here and Cleveland, and attended some of the lectures at the time their new city government was being advocated, and they surely had a big proposition before them. In one district where I attended a lecture there were twen-ty-seven different nationalities present, and to teach those foreigners how to vote was some job, but they made a good go of it. I think the people of Indianapolis should see the great Improvements and advantages without any teaching. m I would like to see you touch on the subject of their utilities. Water in the average modern home costs $5 a year in Cleveland, and they have tunneled seven miles under the lake to have it used by meter.

Married persons living together and heads of families are allowed by .the revenue act of 1924 an exemption of $2,500, regardless of the amount of net income. Under the preceding act the exemption for married persons and heads of families was $2,500 if the aggregate net income was $5,000 or less and $2,000 if the net Income exceeded $5,000. A husband and wife living together have but one personal exemption. If they make separate returns such exemption majr be taken by either or divided between them. The exemption of $2,500 is allowed married couples only if they live together. In the of continuous actual residence together, the exemption depends upon the character of the separation. The new regulations provide that if occasionally and temporarily a wife is away on a visit or a husband Is away on business, the joint home being maintained, the full exemption is allowable. The unavoidable absence of a husband or wife at a sanitarium on account of illness does not preclude claiming the exemption. But if continuously and voluntarily the husband makes his residence at one place and the wife at another, they are not living together within the eyes of the Income-tax law. Each must file a return if his or her income was $1,060 or more, and each is allowed only the SI,OOO exemption granted a single person. No change is made in the provision allowing the taxpayer, in addition to a personal exemption, a credit of S4OO for each person depending upon him or her and receiving chief support, if such person is under 18 years of age or incapable of self-support because mentally or physically defective.

DEAN EW YORK, Jan. 17.—The most vulgar crowds In New York are the first-night theater audiences, it seems to me. Half of a first-night audience troops in after the curtain has gone up. They talk and giggle as they walk down the aisle. They stop F> greet acquaintances already seated. Many of them, especially when they are in parties of four or more, keep up a running conversation throughout the evening. There is little consideration for others intent on observing the performance. Admissions to first nights are generally higher than for other performances. That is particularly true of musical shows. This is so because there is a certain clique which thinks that it Is the '"smart” thing to attend opening nights. * • * First night vulgarity is also displayed in dress. Last night I saw a woman in a very decollete goWn In an upper box at the Century. The house was chilly and drafty. While the show was on and the house dark she put her wrap about her, but when the lights went on during intermission she laid aside her wrap and began to fan herself with an immense red ostrich fan. And why is it that woman with the ugliest bodies wear the scantiest gowns? Most of the b re backs I see at first-nights remind me of nothing so much as great slabs of beef in butcher shops decorated with fringes of green or red.
