Mere “Power’’ Newspapers This federal trade commission revelation of power company control of newspapers gets worse the farther it goes. Yesterday 3 southern publisher testified regarding four of the thirteen newspapers connected with the International Paper and Power Company. William Levarre told how he and his partner. Harold Hail, received advances from the International of S4O 000, in addition to the amounts finally provided to buy the Spar'anburg <S. C.i Herald and Journal, the Augusta Ga.) Chronicle, and the Columbia <S. C.) Record. According to President Graustein of the International, he, gave Levarre and Hall more than SBOO,OOO in all, for which he holds notes secured by stock. In short, Levarre and Hall are the nominal publishers, and the power company is the real owner. Such relationship is destructive to a free press. No matter what the motives of these men may have been, they liave put the brand of outside interest on those newspapers. And that brand is all the uglier because it was kept secret. The public wants and has a right to its news straight, without benefit of power influence. Once it knows who controls its newspaper, the public is quite capable of protecting itself against special interest sheets. But the public must know. Hence the need for the federal trade commission to find out how many other power companies have been acquiring newspaper stock, and hence the importance of congress improving the present law. requiring semiannual publication by newspapers of their ownership, which failed to reveal all the International deals. Yelping at the Senate The pack is at it again, baying and yelping at the senate. The senate ,s sin this time is voting the debenture farm relief plan. That is “legislative obstruction.'’ and “knifing the President.” You would think from this hue and cry that the constitutional obligation of the senate is to rubberstamp the decrees of the President and the house, and that anything short of such subserviency Is treason. Asa matter of record, the senate’s independence has been the last resort of democracy many times in the last decade. The contrary well may wonder what would have happened regarding the stolen oil reserves, the administrative graft, the political corruption, the secret tax refunds, the lobby and propaganda of pow’er interests, and a dozen other vital matters, if the senators had all been yes men. That record should make the public think twice before joining those who damn the senate for the debenture vote. And if reason cannot obtain fair judgment for the senate in the present rumpus, a sense of humor should. For the situation is very funny to anyone with half an eye. Who are those holier-than-thou heresy hunters, They are, of course, the orthodox high-and-higher protectionists. They are the boys who for years have been giving no-longer-infant industries a large tariff subsidy out of the pockets of American consumers. They are the boys who at this moment are seeking to increase this manufacturers’ subsidy with their new tariff bill. Yet they are horrified to discover the senate, through the debenture plan, giving the farmers a subsidy. We offer no brief for the debenture plan and its export bounty to farmers. We agree with the President and most economists that it is unsound and unwise. We object to subsidies to any special class at the expense of the country 7 as a whole. We object whether the subsidy is an exorbitant tariff for manufacturers, or a direct grant to shipping interests, or a bounty to farmers. But subsidies to others have victimized the farmers. Tire farmers have failed to get the government to close the price gap between what, they sell and buy in any other way, so now they demand a subsidy for themselves. We believe the only effective way to close that gap for farmers and for other consumers is to lower the tariff to a scientific level. But so long as relief is not in sight from that direction, we can not blame the farmers for rushing to get their feet into the federal feed trough. If the senate, after the house strikes the debenture plan out of the farm relief bill, should paste that farm subsidy onto the high tariff bill, some good might result. The tariff bill then might collapse under its own weight. We hope so. Meanwhile, all this moral indignation against the isenate and its farm subsidy 7 leaves us rather cold. Another Shame for Illinois [From The Cfcicsjro Tribune) The Kane county grand jury 7 has refused to vote e true bill against Deputy Sheriff Roy Smith, who killed Mrs. Lillian De King in her home at Aurora. The Liller of the woman thereby was exonerated. The county enforcement officers, executing the general instructions of the state's attorney. Mr. Carbary. forced their way into the De King home. They had firearms and a fraudulent warrant. The affidavit upon which the warrant was issued was false, and that was admitted. The spy who made it has been indicted. He is thrown to the lions, but the killer is protected. De King was beaten on the head with a shotgun. Mrs. De King was shot and killed as she saw her husband drop as she turned away from the telephone. where she had been asking a lawyer to pro*ect, the family against the acts of the county (deputies) enforcement agents. Her small son shot the deputy in the leg. whereupon an agent gave the final touch of ghastliness and insanity to the scene by throwing in a tear bomb. Illegality cf procedure, brutality, and irresponsibility of method and heedlessness of law and life could not have been given an illustration with less conscience and less humanity. The’authorities of Kane county for a minute were disturbed by the consequences of this wantonness, but rallied under the encouragement of the modem type of moralism which condones murder, and with this encouragement there was a conspiracy in the county to suborn perjury and compound murder. Mr. Carbary, at first uncertain of his position as prosecutor and as the man responsible for the enforcement methods, at last undertook the presentetion of the case against his deputy to the grand jury, which has found that the killing of a woman in her home was justified and that her killer was guiltless. Williamson county, Illinois, laid the foundation for

its long reign of terror when it refused to convict the murderers of the Herrin massacre. It thus gave its indorsement to a crime which startled the civilized world. Kane county, by the conspiracy of its moralists and officials to prevent justice from having even its day in court for the murder of a woman, takes on the color of Williamson in the map of Illinois. We only hope that it will not follow Williamson down the bloody trail of arson and mu T der. The Freedom of the Port Despite the fact that a New York grand jury condemned as “un-American” the habit of granting “freedom of the port” to members of congress who return to the United States after trips to foreign countries, it is announced at Washington that the treasury department will continue the practice. The freedom of the port, as you no doubt know, permits the recipient to bring his baggage in unexamined by customs men. It is a graceful compliment for a nation to extend to a distinguished visitor; but jusy why a congressman coming back from foreign parts should be accorded the privilege is hard to understand—particularly in view of the public hunch that, not, every congressman's luggage is as dry as it might be. The Railroads’ Safety Record Although the toll of automobile traffic accidents continues to mount to even higher figures, the railways are yearly becoming safer and safer methods of travel. According to Patrick E, Crowley, president of the New York Central system, only sixteen people were killed in railroad accidents in the United States in 1928. Considering the fact that the railroads carried nearly a billion passengers last year, this is an extremely fine record. Now if we can only begin to cut down our automobile accidents, everything will be lovely. Another Prohibition Killing Another person has been killed by prohibition enforcement officers, and the reign of law and order goes merrily on. Last month the victim was a mother in Illinois. Last week it was a youth in the nation's capital. This time it, is a college boy in Abingdon, Va, No, these killings are not exceptions. They have become tragically common. The prohibition enforcement roll of the United States treasury department, for the last fifteen months lists twenty-five killed. That list does not include “local cases." like the Illinois mother and the Virginia boy. So the complete list is much larger. The Virginia officers, who just shot young James Kendrick, say they “mistook him for a rum runner.” He didn't- even regain consciousness to hear their alibis. Governor Byrd of Virginia, prodded by growingpublic indignation is going to investigate. But this business of prohibition shooting and investigating, and then more shooting and more investigating, can not go on forever. When is the killing going to stop? A co-ed at Kansas university keeps in practice by shooting apples off men's heads, ashes off cigars and all that. Probably that’s a part of the home economics course. Sir Oliver Lodge says real efficiency is consistent with beauty and that ugliness is consistent with waste. At that rate, what a profligate Lon Chaney is.

Beauty of Fog

No. 352'

ONE of the pet fears of those who do not understand science is that science is robbing life of beauty and imagination. Summed up briefly, the thesis is that the moon is no longer beautiful if you know its distance from the earth, rate of rotation, diameter, etc., etc. Asa matter of fact, exactly the opposite is true.

lin institute of Philadelphia. Few men know more about the weather than Dr. Humphreys. Judge for yourself if he has lost sight of beauty. He said: "If one would thrill his soul with beauty let him, on a brilliant, moonlit night, view from the mountain's crest a far-flung fog over all the Piedmont region beyond, with foothills and knolls rising here and there as so many enchanted islands in an enchanted sea. "Let him. as the dawn breaks clear, gaze from a mountain top on an incipient, fibrous fog. covering a neighboring valley with a fabric more gauzy and delicate than ever Arachne spun. "Let him stand on the topmost peak of rugged Tamalpais and watch in wonder the mighty fog billows crowd through the Golden Gate, break over the barrier mountain crests, and rush down their sides in an engulfing flood. "Let him view from afar the snow-crowned crest of incomparable Fuji, floating without visible support, in a clean, clear skv while all its base and the region around is lost in deep fog and delicate mist. "These are but some, and typical, of the most beautiful and fascinating of fog effects; so impressive, indeed. that we could not forget them if we would, and so charming that certainly we would not forget them if we could. "But the impressions produced by fog are not always so charming and entrancing. If one would go quire to the opposite extreme and experience its terrors, *et him get lost in London's darkest and densest fog. Let him be alone at night in an unfamiliar forert and have settle down upon him so thick a fcg chat literally he can not see his hand before him. "Let him on the ocean in the dead of night, between the shrieks of his own ship's siren, hear from somewhere, just somewhere, within the encircling gl xun. the same dread warning. Let him. when flying over strange territory, be forced to land in a deep, dense fog! "All these, and many others, are harrors one longs to forget, but can not. "And so it is that, from extreme to extreme, from fascination to fear, from delights we fondly cherrisi to oreads we fain would forget, fog in all its moods and cirmustances plays compellingly upon the whole gamut of human emotions."

Farm Relief Seems to Harr ! Led Us Into Nothing but a Scramble tor Private Privilege at Public Expense.

IF people would learn to eat the things they should eat,” says Henry' Ford, “there would be no need for hospitals.” A most optimistic view, considering how many people land in hospitals after hit by Mr. Ford's cars. It would be consoling, indeed, if we could solve the problem of crime and disease merely by improving our diet, as Mr. Ford suggests, but even a cursory survey of the situation indicates a lot more. Each year, approximately 100.000 people die by violence in this country. while approximately 1,000.000 are injured. While a certain percentage of this toll can be traced to crime or deficiency, by far the larger part of it is due to the mechanical system which Mr. Ford, among many others, is helping to promote. In these days, a person not only could kep himself in the pink of condition. but be an actual saint and still run the risk of being run down by an automobile, fall out of a window in a skyscraper, or get killed in an airplane crash. a an Golf and Tennis TIT ALTER HAGEN having demV\ onstrated his superior skill in knocking a pill around a' 100-acre pasture and Helen Wills having demonstrated hers in batting another kind of pill over a tennis net, there is rejoicing throughout the world, if not in heaven. Still, it is hard to figure out whose bread is guaranteed more butter by either feat. Golf and tennis may be harmless but they are still games, which can survive only so lone as other people are willing to pay the bills. a a st Helen Is the Better AT that, golf and tennis are not more useless, while they are a lot less harmful than some of the pomp and parade which we call by nobler names. If anything. Helen Wills, curtsying to Queen Mary, was the better woman of the two. She at least did something to earn recognition, while Queen Mary was born to the part of dispensing it. Aristocracy by birth is in the nature of a sport, except that those out of line get no chance. tt an Farmer Gets Nothing FARM relief seems to have led us into nothing but a scramble for private privilege at public expense. Anew tariff bill is the outstanding feature of the squabble. It is one of the worst ever proposed and the chances are it will grow still worse. The farmer’s demand for “relief,'’ has been taken by every one as a signal to yell for “protection.” Even Mr. Grundy wants it for pig iron, as though pork suggested the idea. tt a a Democrats Dumb Again ""IPHE good old Democratic party is right out in front and doing somersaults, as usual. Although still leaning against the tombstone of Thomas Jefferson, who would turn over in his grave at the thought of a subsidy, the Democratic party shouts for “debenture.’’ It is for anything to beat the Republicans, no matter how it has to wiggle, squirm, or go back on its principles, Such a course explains why the Democratic party has won only four elections out of eighteen since Buchanan left office. a a a Reparation Plan Banned WINSTON CHURCHILL. British chancellor of the exchequer, tells parliament at the moment of its dissolution that his government will not accept Owen D. Young's plan for settling the reparations controversy. Since his statement was applauded by liberals and laborites as well as by conservatives, it looks as though this would be the policy, whether the government he represents is continued or some other takes its place, as a result of the coming election. u tt a England Concedes Much England'""is asked to concede by the Young plan seems rather small until one remembers how much England has conceded previously. Os all the allies. England is the only one that has agreed to pay her American debt in full. She not only has asked no favors of us, but has made no outcry while we granted favors to others. Other allied debts to the United States have been whittled down, some of them by more than onehalf. tt n n No Concession by U, S, IT is to be admitted that Mr. Young and his v associates are dealing with a difficult situation, especially because of the restrictions apparently laid down by our own government. While compelled to ask every nation concerned to concede something if an adjustment was to be had. they have been permitted to offer no concession on the part of the United States. The allies have been informed that while they must do with less from Germany. Uncle Sam will not do with less from them.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

SAYS:

BY DR. MORRIS FISH BE IN Editor Journal of tbo American Medical Association and of Hygeia, the Health Magazine. A BAD breath has been considered unpleasant since the beginning of time. The ancient Greek poets wrote much upon the subject and the epigrams of‘Martial and of Catullus refer not infrequently to halitosis, although the ancients were not so finicky about the name they gave to this disorder. It is rather difficult to find out just when the understanding arose that a bad breath could be benefited by drinking milk or eating parsley. Milk is a white fluid associated invariably with purity and, no doubt, was taken with the idea that its whiteness would counteract the evil of bad breath. Parsley is a bitter substance associated with the idea of cleansing and the purity of herbs

CANON WILLIAM SHEAFE CHASE has been active in urging respect for prohibition upon the community, and I wonder if the canon realizes the fact that he himself flouts one of the most important laws by which men live. In the last fifty controversies in which the clergyman has taken part, he has been on the wrong side precisely fifty times. Such conduct is stive to lead the public into a disrespect for the law of averages and a feeling that it can not be enforced. And to refer again, though briefly, to sex education and marriage. I still must insist that there should be a campaign for more joyousness rather than less. I am moved to this opinion by reading an account of the latest development in the talking pictures. It seems that by some new device color can be combined with sound to emphasize the underlying emotional value of the situation and I read in the announcement: “Firelight—a soft, yellow-orange suggestive of warmth, comfort, intimate home relationships, mild affection, etc.” tt a a Anent.Dr, Cadman /•"iHIEFLY I am concerned today with Dr. S. Parkes Cadman, the columnar clergyman. To him a youth has written, saying, “Many times during each twenty-four hours I find my thoughts rambling about in an emotional manner or jumping from one thing to another of no consequence. “If it is my good fortune to have you choose this question to be answered. you have my assurance that your advice will be carefully followed.'’ # No, the young man did have what he calls the good fortune to have his query answered by Dr. Cadman. and even so, it seems to me that he is out of luck, for the minister gave him singularly inept advice. At least I think so. “You need have no difficulty in understanding my answer.” wrote Dr. Cadman. “but because you have developed a habit of mind-wander-ing. you may experience some resistance in carrying out its recommendations. “To overcome this habit, you need an objective about which you can become enthusiastic. Enthusiasm means that you are deeply interested in achieving a certain end. ass Concentration r T”HIS. in itself, assures concenX tration and the result of the joint process is increased memory power. Thus one quality develops others in their turn. So draw up a program which is not too ambitious and then work it out. But let it be something that appeals to you or the task will be mere drill work. “Intelligent understanding of your purpose is equally necessary. It is no use saying, ‘I shall study my

If by any chance this column happens to catch the young man's j eye, T hope he will pay as little attention as possible to the advice of Dr. Cadman. Let him take advantage of his bad memory and forget it. In the first place, I fail to see that tire youth is in any peculiar or unusual difficulty. His thoughts ramble in an emotional manner. Why not? Aren't we all like that? In fact it will be a’dull day indeed when purple fantares are strictly prohibited. K ft tt Trivial Thoughts 4 ND he thinks of trivial matters. -lV Again I see no crime in that. The mind can net forever be absorbed with problems of the universe, Herbert Spencer, himself, j who is recommended by Dr. Cadman. would have imposed no such tight regime. If I remember Spencer correctly, he was the philosopher who said that v o play billiards well was the mark of a gentleman, but to play j too well was the indication of misspent youth.

And life, depend upon it, is net science, but wholly an art We should move and have our being not by rote, but through inspiration. | Not even the wisest man is capa- j ble of handing over to any other an engrossing hobby. A young man's thoughts should normally wander about and skip and scatter. There is no need to toss out anchors to restrain them. Unfortunately the time comes to every mind when it has found its j groove and can not do aught but concentrate. There should not be any early attempt to set stockades around it. B B B Art of Day Dreaming SOME of the happiest contributions ever made to the art of living have come from the .scatter- , brained. Out of idle and trivial speculations have come books, novels, fine paintings and engrossing music. Even the scientific mind must have its share of day dream- j ing. Research men in laboratories have been known to hit upon their greatest findings through mere aimless speculation. “At our hospital," a doctor told • me, “there is a man who spends

Infected tonsils should be removed. The nose and throat may be washed with simple solutions, such as a teaspoonful of common salt in a glass of warm water. A erreful inspection by a physician and an occasional washing with antiseptic solutions may help to clear up such conditions permanently. There are certain occasions, however, when it is inadvisable to eat onions. The young man about to call on the lady or his choice, the speaker about to address a woman’s club, or the young lady who anticipates a proposal will do much better on the particular occasion with some other flavoring vehicle.
