California Shivers What is there about California's sunny clime that gives the good people there the shivers? The rest of America can laugh off the few demonstrations of youthful, over-zealous reds. President Hoover finds a verbal spanking ample for Communist demonstrators at the very door of the White House. Secretary of State Stimson now finds that the United Spates is safe even with the Karolyis roaming the land at will. Not California. It was California that outdid all other states in post-war hysteria by making felons of more than seventy I. W. W. It is California that holds two innocent laborites in prison for fourteen years, Mooney and Billings. Now the Los Angeles "Better America Federation” is trying to send to San Quentin for one to five years, five young women Communists for violating the state’s "anti-red flag law,” passed by the legislature in 1919. The young women are alleged to have shaken the foundation of American institutions by raising a red flag in a children's camp in Yucaipa Valley, near Riverside. Germs of Civil War If history tells us anything, it is that the wind of unpopular law’ enforcement begets the whirlwind of violence. It was so with the great English civil war in the mid-seventeenth century. James I had found the collection of tonnage and poundage dues a difficult and unpopular policy. But his son, Charles I, learned no lesson. He continued to levy and attempted to collect forced loans. The people resisted. The king's most trusted minister, Buckingham, w r as assassinated. His councilor, Strafford, who encouraged Charles to continue his high-handed acts, was tried for treason by parliament, and executed. The king attempted an arrest of the parliamentary leaders. The nation drifted into civil war; Charles lost his head, and the commonwealth was established under Oliver Cromwell. In 1763, England came into possession of a vast continent west of the Mississippi river. She needed more funds to administer and police this area. She believed the colonists should contribute. Hence, she revived the enforcement of the detested but long dormant navigation laws. A stamp act was put on the books. Settlement of land west of the Alleghanies was forbidden for ten years. Otis, Adams, Dickinson, Quincy, Patrick Henry and others protested. But the British persisted. Enforcement officers were obstructed and manhandled by the colonists. The British sent troops to America to aid and protect the officers, who were searching homes without warrants. Then came the Boston massacre, and in a brief time Lexington and Concord set off the civil war within the British empire which gave us our independence. Next we planted the seeds of our own civil vrar. Slaves fled from their master to free soil, hoping to escape to complete freedom in Canada. The south was strong enough to pass a fugitive slave law. This authorized federal marshals to run down escaped Negroes and return them to their owners. But that law could not be enforced. By 1850 the majority of fugitives captured by the marshals were being taken away from those officers and borne safely to Canada. In 1852 a mob at Syracuse, N. Y., was organized by Gerrit Smith and other citizens, who, in their own home town, ranked as eminently respectable. ’ The mob even invaded the courts and snatched the runaway Negro from its jurisdiction. It was but a step from this to John Brown’s raid and to the answer of the south in the bombardment of Sumter. Many will pooh-pooh the parallel between those past events and events occurring today. Yet only five were killed in .he Boston massacre and more than a thousand have been slain in the course of prohibition enforcement to date. Already mobs have gathered to protest against enforcement. They have jostled and assaulted enforcement officers. Coast guards, mistaken for the crew of the boat that fired on the Black Duck, were beaten severely by an angry mob. Meanwhile, the drys cry for more severe methods of enforcement. England in the seventeenth century, the colonies in the eighteenth and the United States of America in the nineteenth drifted into fratricidal conflict. In each case the thing that seemed impossible a few years before happened. The tempo of the prohibition pace is speeding up. Its rate of motion is faster at the end of ten years than was the rate of motion of the slavery question in the corresponding ten-year span. The question must be settled. Lets not deceive ourselves about the seriousness of it. The Public Utilities’ Alibi The public utility companies now have had their day in court before the Federal Trade commission, after two years in which to prepare their defense. The results are interesting. Most significant, perhaps, are the omissions. In six pounds of defpnse hterature there is not one word about the following practices: Subsidizing news and editorial services; supplying small papers with matter friendly to utilities; employment of Samuel S. Wver to “expose” the Ontario h' droelectnc stem and publication of this under the apparent auspices of the Smithsonian institute; purchase ol newspapers by the International Paper and Power Cos ; secret financing of other papers. Employment of prominent men secretly to report on, or partlcnate in. conferences on Boulder dam; employment of prominent persons to write magazine articles without indication of power company connections. The California campaigns against the state water and power a r t where, it has been testified labor and civic leaders were bribed to "throw the vote” of their organizations; where pseudo-civic organizations were formed to tell the power company story, without revealing that they operated on utility money. The avowed intention of certain utility officials to bring pressure on various communities by making large deposts in local oanks without asking interest. The utilities companies began their defense by claiming they had undertaken publicity work at the request of President WJlscn But noth ng in the Wilson speech thev quoted could be interpreted as a propaganda request.

mention the utility money that found its way into the pockets of some educators. "A few individual employes out of a quarter million In the industry ha\e made mistakes in trying to tell the utility story, but no evidence haa teen offered to show’ that these errors In judgment were countenanced by the industry as a w’hole,” say the comp-nies. But the approximately 5.000 exhibits submitted by the government include letters, speeches, and convention reports made by the highest figures in the industry; and there is no evidence that any “error in judgment” by any utility man. high or low, ever was disapproved by the industry as a whole or by the offender’s immediate superior. Finally, the companies raised an amusing cry of a great socialistic combine organized to demolish them. Utility companies have a right to present to the public at any time anything they wish concerning their industry. They have no right, however, to conceal the source of *heu propaganda or to represent it as coming from an unbiased source. That has been their greatest offense. The Federal Trade Commission investigation, even if it accomplishes r.o more, has served a useful purpose. It has put the public on guard against camouflaged propaganda. No Help to Fascism Reports that the Fascists are attempting to intimidate George Palmer Putnam and the firm of G. P. Putnam’s Sons on account of the proposed publication of the prison memoirs of Francesco Nitti, nephew of the former premier of Italy, will not help the cause of Fascism in foreign opinion. Signor Nitti proposes to tell of his experiences in a Fascist penal colony and ol’ his escape from this institution. The Fascists have threatened the firm of Putnam with a bombing and Mr. Putnam was guarded to the boat in England by representatives of Scotland Yard. Such action will prejudice opinion against Fascism from the outset. It will be assumed that the Fascists have something very much worth hiding. The sane procedure would have been to encourage the publication of the book, and then try to answer the charges by a reasoned and logical refutation. Certainly, the Fascists can not claim that they do not have as much access to American publishing firms as the anti-Fascists. By trying to bulldoze the publishers and to prevent them from publishing criticisms of Fascism, its partisans create only the impression that they are unable to answer such criticisms. They further create an unfavorable prejudice against any answer which they later may submit. Free and full discussion will be the best policy for both sides to follow. Vice-President Curtis was given a tomahawk to use as a gavel in presiding over the senate. Maybe there'll be times when Charlie can use it to better advantage as a scalpel. Once there was a man who told another man what to do for a cold and the other man followed instructions immediately. And the cold was cured! A Turk, 143 years old, was killed in an automobile accident the other day, The dispatch didn’t say whether his parents blamed the driver. That recent $500,000,000 steel merger reminds us —has Babe Ruth signed up yet for 1930? Men make love to blondes, says a color specialist, and marry brunettes. Statistics also probably show that brunettes can shoot straighter than blondes. Crime nates the camera and the reporter, says a magazine writer. P’or that matter, so does Gene Tunney. You know a man is successful when the newspapers start quoting him on subjects he knows nothing about.

REASON By FR landis K

MR. CURTIS will go down in history as our smiling Vice-President, all of his predecessors except Colfax having kept their vestibules closed. Curtis has the happiest teeth that ever presided over a deliberative body. n n Just a suggestion to the various state highway commissions of the country—eliminate these detours caused by building bridges after the roads are built, but having the bridges built and done by the time the roads are opened. And if it is necessary to build a bridge after the road is finished, arrange to have the new one built so the public can continue to use the old one until the new one is done. Railroad companies do this and highway commissions could do it also. B tt tt The east German League, residing in the territory cut off from Germany by giving Poland a corridor to the sea. passes a resolution, declaring that its members never will rest until they are again connected to the German mainland, but if they don’t rest until then they are going to be all tired out. a a a AN lOWA architect makes the prophecy that in a little while the farmers of the country will live in great apartment houses to be erected in the rural regions, and that whole communities will reside under one roof. The farmer has had enough hard luck without putting him in an apartment house! a a tt It’s the detached house that’s the foundation of civilized government, the detached house with a little ground and a garden around it.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

M. E. Tracy SAYS:

Prohibition Still Rules in Congress, as Drys Dramatically Proved by Saturday’s Vote. HAVING made an historical survey covering the last 3,400 years, and having discovered that 2*48 of these years were free lrom war somewhere on earth, Pro.essor Felix, Rumanian delegate to the League of Nations, contends that war is a normal state of humanity. In the same way, one might con-clu-le that whooping cough and insanity are normal states. When you come to think of it, there are very few ills from which men have been free in all places at once since the dawn of consciousness. You can consult the past and prove that the United States has been at war with somebody a great deal of the time, but by and large this has been a peaceful country, and most of its people have enjoyed the privilege of dying in their own beds. # # Facts and figures won’t lie if all of them are taken into account. The trouble is that all of them seldom are available, and when they are. the average man selects only those that suit his purpose. Take the impending naval parley, for instance, and see how many different conclusions the experts are able to draw by referring to the same set of tables. The point is, of course, that each of them is leaving out something that others put in. a Congress Still Dry THE same thing is true of prohibition. Wets prove it a failure by counting up the cost and the killing, while drys prove it a success by counting the votes in congress. Wets hope that if they continue to count up the cost and killing long enough, they will change the votes in congress, but that is all their argument has amounted to thus far. B tt tt Signally as the law may have failed in other respects, it still commands the support of the national legislature, as was dramatically demonstrated Saturday, when every amendment proposed by the wets went down to defeat by a majority of three to one, or more. The drys not only get an appropriation of $15,000,000 for law enforcement, but one of $50,000 for propaganda; not only the right to poison alcohol, but the privilege of employing ex-convicts. No wonder Breckinridge Long suggests that we might as well repeal the bill of rights. a a b Watson Wants Referendum SENATOR WATSON of Indiana says that, while he can see no way of holding a national referendum on prohibition, he would welcome one in the various states. Not a bad idea. Considering all the talk, it might be just as well to give the people a chance to express themselves on this subject, under circumstances which would enable them to do so, with- some singleness of purpose. Theoretically, we hold such a referendum every two years when we elect a house of representatives, and one-third of the senators. But we do not do so without being obliged to consider other issues, and there always is doubt as to whether prohibition, or these other issues, exercise the greater influence. Senator Tydings of Maryland secures permission to print acounts of some 1,300 killings in the Congressional Record. "Poor old Congressional Record,” groans Senator Smoot of Utah, as though this material wouldn’t make 2.1! ti'- more readable. The chances are that the Congressional Record will experience a great increase in popularity, and that those w r ho receive it at least will tear off the wrapper. tt a What About Auto Deaths? WHILE we’re opening the pages of this conservative publication to blood and thunder, why not give the auto victims a chance? They certainly would make a longer and just as grewsome a list. But if it is felt they are not entitled to such distinction, because no federal law was involved, why not include those who died because of marine rule in Nicaragua and Haiti? In fact, one can think of quite a lot of interesting material that might be put into the Congressional Record if permission to print account of dry killings is to be taken as a precedent. What is more, one can foresee that the substitution of this material for the long-winded speeches which generally have filled it thus far would add greatly to its readability and attractiveness.

CALIFORNIA GOLD RUSH Jan. 20

ON Jan. 20, 1848, settlers in Caii fomia began telling their neighbors about the discovery of gold in an excavation made for the tailra-ce in a water-power mill near Coloma. This discovery caused the intense “gold rush” excitement, when men from all parts of the w’orld rushed by boats and by wagons across the prairies to the new gold district. The great body of gold-seekers, "the Argonauts,” arrived in 1849, and by the end of the year more than 100.000 persons settled in the district. The wonderful richness of this new discovery furnished the incentive for the exploration and development of the whole far west. Today also is the anniversary of the purchase of Pettaquamscot, R 1.. from the Indians, on Jan. 20 1657. And on Jan. 20, 1846. Philadelphia and New York were connected by tfce first telegraph line.

Health Programs Vital in Factories

BY DR. MORRIS FISHBEIN Editor Journal of the American Medical Association and of Hygeia. the Health Magazine. MORE than 200 hundred years have passed since a famous Italian, Bernardino Ramazzini, wrote a book in which he considered particularly the diseases that affect workers in various industries. He surveyed the metal workers, glassmakers, potters, painters, dyers, tanners, bakers, millers, masons, barbers, wrestlers and other occupations and called attention to the various diseases that afflicted people because of their trades. Modern physicians, reconsidering these trades, find little new to add to what Ramazzini observed. Os course, we have such new 7 occupations as steamship building, dye and dynamite manufacture and airplaining, of which he could not write because the occupations simply did not exist in his time. Chemistry, too, has made tremendous strides in the last two cen-

IT SEEMS TO ME H S32 D

1T is strange that Commissioner Doran should be willing to add poison to the industrial alcohol formula, He seems to have overlooked the danger that scores of friendly drys in congress may develop painful callouses on the palms of their hands while applauding each new list cf the de—l. And now 7 I purpose to take a Volstead holiday and make this column a farewell to prohibition. The theme is not dismissed forever as a columnar issue. Situations and events may rise which will make silence too difficult. But in the normal course of events the prohibition problem will not be mentioned here again for, lets say, a month. The whole business has come to the dull stage of trench warfare. Indeed, there is even room for suspicion that the fights a fake. The wets want gin, the drys want legislation. Both have easy access to a plentiful supply. The Wickersham report indicates that the politicians in power are going to keep on with the same old humbug. No wise and truthful man can believe by now that enforcement is possible, but down at Washington there will be, as usual, much hay tossing for the sake of voters in the Bible belt, a tx a Paradise TNCREASINGLY It grows difficu.t A to get in a very tumultuous frame of mind about prohibition. The wants of most of us are pleasantly and easily supplied. The new style co-educatlonal saloon is more attractive than the old style sawdust floor. Prices are now very little higher than a decade ago, and you get much better service and surroundings for your money. It is pertinent, then, to ask, “Why do you complain?” In the beginning I was harassed by the hypocrisy oi it all. But even that edge of resentment dies. The pretense has grown so thin that it is hardly fair to call our American attitude hypocritical any more. By now, the bunk is palpable. Prohibition has become a sort oi department store Santa Claus. Only congressmen and other childish people are fooled in any way. And quite a few of the congressmen are in on the jcke. It’s a racket, a game called “I’se Danpa,” in which we all dress up and pretend to be an adult nation dealing with a serious problem in a sincere way. In another ten years prohibition will be precisely where it is today. Nor will there be much change in twenty. Every now and then a speakeasy will be raided and the proprietor will be compelled to open up around the comer.

turies, and there are new chemical hazards, particularly in the nature of toxic gases, of which the ancients did not even dream. With the coming of the machines and the building of the great industries, more and more industrial plants have seen the wisdom of having special departments devoted to health and safety of the workmen. The saving in hours of labor, in payments made as compensation of disease and injury and in more efficient work, more than compensate for any sum that may be spent on the health and safety departments. In one factory changes in illumination increase the output. In another factory the provision of adequate safeguards to machinery lessens industrial accidents. The provision of rest periods may increase greatly the total output. In a recent survey of the work of a department of industrial medicine the Journal of the American

Change Name THE padlocked place will change its name from Stagger Inn to Joe’s, and resume business under new management. Another commission of learned men will receive an appropriation of the public’s money and go into a long huddle. Eventually it will untrock its head from the sand and announce that enforcement isn’t altogether perfect yet. We shall be told in 1940 that the law hasn’t had time, as yet, to justify itself, and that we should all be patient and respect such parts of the Constitution as have not been whittled away to make room for prohibition. The 1940 commission will suggest that enforcement be- transferred from the department of justice to the department of agriculture. This will be applauded as a sure way to bring about complete aridity. An effort will be made at Albany to pass a state enforcement act. There will be a brief spurt of indignation because an agent in aiming at the back tires of a fleeing automobile, has shot a piece off the flagpole on the Chrysler building. tt B * Temperance A WOMAN signing herself “Wife and Mother will write a letter to the editor saying, “You must remember that New York isn’t the United States.

Medical Associaiton points out four specific ways In which the Industrial surgeon may be of benefit to the plant and to the workmen. The first duty is to fit every worker to the type of employment that is suited to this health and his ability. Furthermore, he must be able to carry on this work without danger or impairment to himself or his fellow workmen. Second, the industrial surgeon studies the conditions in the plant as they concern the individual workman, the group and the employer and makes every adjustment possible in the interest of health and safety. The department of industrial medicine also educates the workers in personal hygiene and in accident prevention. Finally the industrial surgeon makes a study of time lost through illness, through accident or for other reasons and endeavors to save such time for the employer and the employe by getting at the cause.

SCIENCE! By PAV’D DIETZ —

Authorities Differ on Score of Points With Regard >to Piltdown Man. % of learned anthr/pologists about the Piltddrtvr man differ from opinions about the Java man in only one respect. There are five more points of difference There are fifteen important po}*.ts upon which authorities differ concerning Java man. There are twenty with regard to Piltdown man. ' These facts are pointed out by Dr. Gerrit S. Miller Jr. of the Uniied States National Museum, In an arti- | ele in the annual report of the Smithsonian Institution. | They are important facts to bear in mind while the discussion stiff iiL raging around the theory presets jSl| at the recent meeting in Des Moj\ ' of the American Association IoxJM Advancement of Science by *Pa|! Henry Fairfield Osborn. Dr. Osborn, president of the American Museum of Natural History, stated that mankind was at east 1,000,003 years old and thu man’s immediate ancestor was a I “dawn man,” a creature very muen i like the present-day man, and hot an “ape-man.” | The reason for the discuss* over this theory’ is evident, when it ! is remembered that there are only ; two fossils upon which any opinion | can be based, the socalled Java man lor Pithecanthropus, a skull, several , teeth and a thigh-bone found at Trinil, Java, and the socalled | down man or Eoanthropus ; ments of a skull, jaw and nasal bones found at Piltdown, Sussex, 1 England. B tt tt Gravel Pit JAVA man was discovered in 1891. Recently I gave a summary of the fifteen points of difference among authorities as pointed out by Dr. Miller. Today I shall sqjrimarize the argument over the Piltdown man. The remains of Piltdown man were found in a gravel pit by Charles Dawson in 1911 and 1912. Workmen who had been excavating in the pit previously had evidently smashed the skull and | haps destroyed much of it. In 1911 nine fragments of the skull were found which fitted together into four pieces. The jawbone was found with two teeth in it. The next year the nasal bones, another tooth and a few more fragments of skull were found. If the discussion over the Java man had seemed violent, it became a tea party by comparison with the battle which the Piltdown man evoked. The first description of the Piltdown man was read by Sir Ar -jk thur Smith Woodward at a meet* ing of the Geological Society oM. London on Dec. 18, 1912. “This announcement.” Dr. MillcSF writes, "gave rise to a contest 1 B opinion which probably is in the history of paleontology’. More than seventy-five writers have taken part in it.” * tt u tt Opinions “T'vELIBERATE malice could JL/ hardly have been more successful than the hazards of depto:tion and recovery in so breaking the Piltdown fossils and losing the most essential parts of the original skull as to allow free scope to individual judgment in fitting the pieces together,’’ Dr. Miller writes. The twenty points of summarized by Dr. Miller may JraL abridged as follows: The fossils are 500,000 years old They are more than a million yeaxs old. | The fragments are all of one maii rf The skull is human and the jM| simian. The skull and jaw belong to human creatures of different types. The jaw is human. The jaw * ape-like. ~ The jaw was chinless. It was not completely chinless. The teeth are human. They resemble those of a chimpanzee. The jaw and teeth together come closest, to those of an orang. The creature was an ancestor of modern man. He was an ancestor of Neanderthal man. He was an ancestor of neither. He was a missing link between man and the ape The brain capacity equaled that of modern man. It was less than that of modern man. “Eoanthropus,” meaning man” is an excellent name for the creature. The creature was not bid enough to deserve such a name. In conclusion, it should be stated that these conflicting opinions ore not snap judgments. Each authority feels his own opinion by long and careful study. V
