Better Judges The lawyers of this city will hold a primary of their own and pass along their recommendations on candidates for judicial positions to the people . Presumably the lawyers, who appear in : courts, are in a more advantageous position Vto estimate the qualifications of members \of their own profession than are the clients who employ them. A vote by all the lawyers should be of alue to the public, as such a vote would undoubtedly represent the opinion as to fairiess and freedom from personal interest that might be involved in the opinion of any particular lawyer who pleads for a candidate. / One of the causes of lack of confidence in courts comes from the belief that there are judges who favor their friends and whose decisions can be swayed by the employment of lawyers with a certain political influence and background. Freeing the bench from the influence of the political lawyers of the community is an object worth fighting for. Every one knows that there are certain law firms in this city which thrive largely through the general belief in their secret influence with one or more of the judges. Clients with important cases receive the suggestion that such firms have this power, not that their members are either more skillful or better grounded in the theories of law than others. A vote by the lawyers should be important for it is irksome to who have a regard for the ethics of their own profession to find themselves in competition with this subtle fear on the pert of the community rather than with members of their own profession. Perhaps the vote of the lawyers may prove a guide to public thought. It will be the only guide, aside from the past record of such candidates as have held judicial positions. Eventually there must be separate election of judges on tickets which do not bear the usual partisan labels. Until the judgeships are taken out of politics, the advice of the bar association is to be courted. How the Tariff Works From the records of the federal trade commission's investigation of the aluminum trust comes a timely demonstration of the effect of tariff rates on the cost tot living. The Fordney-McCumber bill of 1922 increased import duties 3 cents * pound on alumnium ingots, and cents a pound on aluminum sheets, bars and plates. These tariff increases became effective Sept. 22. 1922. ; Four days later. Sept. 26, the Aluminum Company of America raised its price for aluminum Ingots from 20 cents to 22 cents a pound On Nov. 1, the price was increased further to 23 cents a pound. On Sept. 26, also, quotations on sheets, bars and plates were advanced. With a second advance on Nov. 22, they stood exactly 3 cents a pound over the quotations of Sept. 22. Within sixty days of the tariff bill's passage, the full tariff on aluminum had been passed to the consumer in increased prices. During the calendar year 1921. the last year before the tariff was enacted, the United States exported 2,500.000 pounds of .aw aluminum products. The tariff ostensibly is to protect American industries suffering from foreign competition. What a farce 1 A Muscle Shoals Victory The aerate has passed, 45 to 23, the Norris bill for government operation of the plants at Muscle Shoals. In doing so, the senate merely has reaffirmed Its vote of two years ago, when President Coolidgc killed the bill by a pocket veto. The house should pass the bill quickly. There Is no reason why the house should change its opinion of two years ago. Indeed, there is every reason why the house should wish to send the bill to the White house as soon as possible. For the lobby investigation has shown the country what has been holding up this legislation for so many years. The investigation has shown also that Claudius H. Huston, now chairman of the Republican national committee, was the head of that lobby, which since has depended upon his party position to help kill the bill. So. to the motives of public service which should actuate the house in prompt repassage of the Norris bill now is added a selfish consideration. The house is controlled to an unusual extent this session by that same Republican national organization of which Huston still is chairman. Under the circumstances, any attempt by the G. O. P. leaders in the house to defeat the bill, as desired by Chairman-Lobbyist Huston, would be almost as fatal to their public reputation as the recent revelations have been to Huston’s reputation. It is a certainty that the Republican leaders are going to unload Huston soon to save their own necks In the coming campaign. But that won’t help them if they themselves have lined up with the interests trying to gTab Muscle Shoals. ■ \ Another Labor Injunction Hi -country would be outraged if a court should , tomorrow, to forbid by injunction adverse Her. i of any sort, by any one, anywhere, of 1 busl Tv. first step in that direction has been taken.

tempted to circulate leaflets denouncing the contract. The court forbade the union men to do this or anything else that would interfere with the business of the mills. It undoubtedly interferes with the business of the Southern California Edison Company, for instance, when newspapers and public officials and private citizens make statements opposing any grant to the company of government power from Boulder dam. The Edison Company feels it would be greatly to the advantage of its business to get some of that power. So, if Judge Stewart in Pennsylvania can protect the Kraemer company by shutting off the people of Nazareth from knowledge of the yellow dog contract, why can not another judge protect the Southern California Edison Company by shutting off protests against its Boulder dam policy? It is unthinkable that this country should tolerate suppression of free speech. Yet in Pennsylvania free speech has been suppressed. If the United States supreme court sustains the decree of Judge Stewart, we are embarked on a course the end of which can not be foreseen. If Judge Parker should be on the supreme court when that decision is made, what would be his attitude? Constitutional Snobbery Some Communists were run in by the Los Angeles police as a result of their activities on Red Thursday. Clinton J. Taft, director of the California branch of the American Civil Liberties Union, appeared before the board of police commissioners of Los Angeles to protest against what he alleged to be police brutality and violation of the constitutional rights of persons dwelling in the United States. At first the commissioners objected to hearing Taft at all. But he was determined and patient, so they finally listened to his case. He was curtly informed by Police Commissioner Pierce that “Communists have no constitutional rights in America.” This apparently was part and parcel of the theory upon which Magistrate MacAdoo in New York City refused to admit Foster and his associates to bail. Commissioner Pierce and Judge MacAdoo appear to have overlooked a part of a sentence tucked away in an obscure document called the Constitution of the United States of America. In Article XIV is a clause which directs that no state “shall deprive any person of life, liberty, or property without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of its laws.” In two other sections of this venerable framework of our government, some essentials of “due process of law” in criminal procedure are thus described; “In all criminal prosecutions the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the state and district wherein the crime shall have been committed. . . . Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted.” Perhaps the commissioner and the judge would defend their views on the ground that a Communist is not a "person.” At any rate, those who most abhor Communists should be the most hesitant to help them prove their case against capitalist justice. How about Harvard's scrub teams taking the place of the washerwoman discharged recently by the university? The college song might be changed to read: “Till the last white line is washed.” Speaking of pianos reminds us of the little boy who thumped loudly on the instrument soon after a death in the family. When reprimanded, he said: “It’s ail right, I'm playing on the black keys.” “ By the time the news is circulated that a pianist in Yugo-Slavia set a record of eighty-five hours of continuous playing, his neighbors may have made of him a harp player. A piano marathoner can be said to roll the ivories, but it’s the neighbors who do the shooting. Many peace-loving people would liked to have seen more scrapping at the London conference.

REASON By l LANDIS CK

THE framers of our federal Constitution hated caste, so they provided that no title of nobility should be granted, and they feared foreign influence in the United States, so they provided that “no person holding any office of profit or trust under them, shall without the consent of congress, accept of any present, emolument, office or title, of any king, prince or foreign state." a a a Foreign nations have conferred title on many Americans, France in particular being very generous in this respect, and now Representative Garner of Texas announces that hereafter he will oppose such congressional consent. A spirited resistance in congress in such a matter would expose us to the imputation of provincialism abroad and cause loud laughter on the other side. a a if THIS fear of foreign influence in our government was natural when the Constitution was adopted, because we then were weak as a nation and we had two very clearly defined tactions one of which favored close relations with England and the other with France. But while we are much closer to Europe than ever before, our national strength is so great and our hyphenated Americans are so negligible, there is little danger of our being undermined by the isolated acceptance of such honors. a a a If there is any danger of our being destroyed by such 1 a distribution of foreign distinctions, then we are in a bad way, for the constitutional provision does not apply to those of us who are not holding office under the United States, and any foreign nation that wants to capture all of us can do so if it has enough ribbon to go around. a a a PROBABLY the most celebrated rumpus ever kicked up in this country over this matter arose when General Lew Wallace, minister to Turkey, bade farewell to the sultan, with whom he enjoyed unrivaled popularity, and was presented with a very fine painting. Finally, however. General Wallace was permitted to receive the painting and it is now in his interesting study at Crawfordsville. a a a Since there appears to be little peril in the thing it does seem cruel to deny to frail Americans the ecstasy which they derive from wearing foreign bunting in their buttonholes, especially when they wear their tuxedos. Personally we feel that any fellow who has to wear a tuxedo is entitled to anything that will relieve his discomfort.

M. E. Tracy SAYS:

When You Fhid Centenarians, You Usually Find People With Sense Enough to Do Their Own Talking and Thinking. pvOCTOR JESSE H. HOLMES, E' professor of philosophy at Swarthmore college, thinks that God is suffering from old-fashioned descriptive matter. What can a generation unfamiliar with sheep get out of the verse, “The Lord is my shepherd,” he wants to know, and why wouldn’t it be better to say, “The Lord is my automobile’s low gear to help me in climbing hard hills,” or, “The Lord is my antiseptic in times of dangerous epidemic,” or, “The Lord is my dynamo to charge my run-down batteries?” Maybe so, but even people unfamiliar with sheep will continue to think of a shepherd as having more soul than a crankshaft, or a bottle of patent medicine. tt e u Kupper Bier dies at 109, as the result of shock caused by setting his whiskers afire when he lit a stogy. The anti-tobacco crusaders should be able to find a sermon in his unhappy fate. If he hadn’t been a smoker, he might havo lived to enjoy a ripe old age. Some people will say that he could have accomplished the same end by shaving, but that is to evade the moral issue. No matter what happens, we must teach our boys and girls that those who use the filthy weed are bound to die young. nun Mind Own Business FROM time immemorial, prophets, quacks and reformers have used long life as an argument for their wares. Multitudes have followed them, in the hope of attaining it. But when you find centenarians you usually find men or women with sense enough to do their own thinking. Asa general proposition, they mind their own business, which means that they are not worn out by being bossed, or by trying to boss others. nun As the old sage puts it, “Dr. Quiet, Dr. Diet, and Dr. Merryman are the best physicians.” We have made considerable progress in saving babies, but we have made little or none in prolonging the years of old people. Not only that, but death seems to be gaining on the middle aged. It is surprising how many are dropping out at 45 or 50 or are being killed by some mechanical device. Dr. Merryman may have some chance in spite of all the commotion, but Doctors Quiet and Die:, have very little. tt tt tt 32 Languages Spoken CENSUS takers are learning a good many things which don’t go with the job. Among others, at least thirtytwo languages are spoken in New York, which sounds amazing, until you recall that eighteen were spoken as early as 1695, when New York was a town of only 4,000 people. New York always has been a cosmopolitan community. In that respect, it has been different. Boston was Puritan for a long time; Philadelphia was Quaker, and New Orleans was French, but New York always has been blessed with a healthy admixture. tt tt tt The commissioner of education of Canton, China, was forbidden the showing of the movie “Ben-Hur,” because he regards it as “propaganda of superstitious beliefs.” That is what you might call censorship in reverse, yet the logic of it is exactly the same as our reformers and purifiers employ. Censorship, especially of an official character, runs to prejudice, permitting that which is popular for the moment and excluding that which is not. tt tt tt Oldest Royal Family SPEAKING of history, the empress of Abyssinia, who just has died, claims descent from Solomon and the queen of Sheba. If that is true, here probably is the oldest royal family in the world that still occupies a throne. We think of Abyssinia, when we think of it at all, as one of those newly discovered lands where scientists go to study primitive traits. That is largely because Abyssinia has been a poor advertiser. The country not only boasts an ancient dynasty, but one of the oldest Christian sects in existence. It was an Abyssinian monk, according to legend, who discovered coffee, and it certainly was from Abyssinia that coffee was introduced, first to Turkey, and afterward to the western world.

DAILY HEALTH SERVICE Acid Secretions Often Kill Germs

BY DR. MORRIS FISHBEIN Editor Journal of tho American Medical Association and of Hygela, the Health Magazine. IN addition to routes of infection on the surface of the human body there are interior routes which are of great importance. All sorts of things may be inhaled into the lungs and there set up disease. There seems to be evidence beyond doubt that tuberculous germs may be inhaled and in that way cause tuberculosis, although it is also likely that the disease may come into the body by way of the intestines. Miners and workers in dusty trades not infrequently inhale matter which sets up an irritative reaction in the lungs and the germs which are inhaled begin to grow and develop in the spots that have been weakened by irritation and by inflammation. Were it not for the fact that the

THE other day I watched the police in close pursuit of Communists who distributed handbills declaring that Grover Whalen, New York's police commissioner, was the leader of a Cossack band. And now I wonder why the policemen took such great offense at this particular libel, since Whalen himself seems to delight in one not markedly dissimilar. New York, an innovator in many things, is the first city, as far as I know, to issue its own police magazine written and edited entirely by members of the force. Appropriately enough, it is called “Spring 3100.” the departmental telephone number, which has figured in a score of popular melodramas known throughout the country. On the opening page there is aportrait of Grover Whalen, as sketched by William Van Dresser. Moreover, Van Dresser has returned to the scene of the crime to pay a brief tribute to his sitter.

LISTER’S BIRTH L? April 5 ON April 5, 1827. Joseph Lister, English surgeon and founder of antiseptic surgery, was bom in London. Asa young interne at the London hospital. Lister was moved deeply by the number of deaths from gangrene and wondered why so many should succumb after successful operations. Except that he had discovered gangrene was caused by microbes, Lister was at a loss what to do. But Pasteur’s great discovery that microbes cause fermentation gave him a clew. Lister observed that the microbes which caused gangrene could not grow in the wound unless they had been carried there. At first he though they came from the air, so he used carbolic acid on wounds to exclude the air. Finally he discovered that the microbes which did the most damage were carried to the wound from the hands, the clothing, the bandages or the instruments used in the operation. Thus he laid the foundation for what is called “aseptic treatment,” that is, the use of antiseptics on dressing applied to wounds and the sterilizing of sponges, gloves, bandages and instruments. What is quicksand? It is sand mixed with water to form a pulpy mas?. Usually it is very fine, and is mixed also with clay or calcium carbonate which enables it to retain moisture.

stomach secretes acid material which is of importance in the digestion of food, there would be far more infection of the stomach and intestines by germs that are swallowed. Fortunately the gastric juices serve to protect against intestinal infection. Germs do settle, however on the wall of the stomach in spots of lessened resistance and ulcers form as a result. It is quite likely also that germs brought by the blood to the stomach localize in spots of weakened resistance and produce ulcers in that way. It is, of course, quite possible for virulent germs to pass through the stomach safely in the food which has not been thoroughly penetrated by the gastric juice or in the parts where the gastric juice is not profuse. It is not wise to depend too much on the gastric juice for safety. It

Editor Times—lt seems to me that people are forgetting that the good old United States is a free country, and that, if married women want to work it is their business, and no one else’s, but the whole trouble today is too many people want to dictate to the other fellow what he should do. I am not a married woman, who is working, but I am employed in an office where there are married women working, and in mosts cases who do a better job of what is assigned to them than others, and can’t say that they dress any better, nor half as good as some of the girls who are single, so the idea that the work to wear fur coats, and fine clothes is not true in all cases. In one particular case, one of these married girls who is working supports her widowed mother, who worked for years, having been left a widow with three children under 5. Is not far better for the daughter in this case to work than the mother, who is nearing the age of 60? Another instance where the wife is working, the husband at the time they were married was making $175 a month, working for a railroad company, and has been reduced until he is now making $lO6 a month. At the time they married, they purchased a home with what they had saved. Should this woman be made to quit work? What bank or loan company would carry the mortgage on their home when they were not able to make the monthly payment? None, but still Carroll Collins would have all married women be forced to quit work, not knowing the individual means in each case. It is pitiful to see the men in front of the Ford plant every morning. but I don’t think the working married women have in any way caused this condition. In many cases they are helping out at home to keep may be a mother or father of either, cut of a county institution, which is certainly a help to the community and not a hindrance, and certainly gives pleasure to their old mother and father who have probably sacrificed a lot to give them a chance in this world. Before passing a law about married women working, these women should take everything into consideration, however, it is every one’s

is much safer to eat food that has been well cleaned, thoroughly cooked and in other ways made fairly free from harmful bacteria. There seems to be plenty of evidence that the intestines may act as a route for infection. Germs actually pass through the walls of the intestines and set up inflammations. They are also taken up from the intestines and taken elsewhere in the body. Tuberculosis in infancy has resulted from the taking of milk heavily contaminated with tubercle bacilli. For this reason tuberculin tests of cattle are being enforced as a nation-wide practice. Unquestionably this is of the greatest importance in protecting the child from infection through the intestinal tract. Some germs which make their attack on the intestines particularly are those of typhoid fever, cholera and dysentery.

Editor Times—Being neither a radical dry nor an ardent wet, I was interested in The Times editorial, “The Swing Toward Repeal.” We hear it said frequently that the saloons sealed their own doom through their utter disregard for law and decency. In the same manner, it seems to me, editorials such as yours are not going to aid effectually in contradicting the oft-re-ported charge that certain newspapers of the country are subsidized by the liquor interests. Instead of being iconoclast and always using the pronoun, "the,” when we refer to enforcement, would it not be a good idea to say “we” and offer honest, constructive criticism? I am not so sure that Daniel Roper’s suggestion to the effect that every one get his shoulder to the wheel is not a good one. E. V. JOLLIFEE. Detroit. Editor Times—Many articles have been written about labor problems in our country and some have concerned our local community, but here is an instance having to do with the age limit advertised by our business firms that rivals anything which has appeared as yet. An ad - vertisement appeared in the Indianapolis News under date of March 6, in the male help wanted columns, asking lor salesmen between ages of 24 and 35. It was inserted by one of our largest ice and fuel companies, owned and controlled by a man who has been president of, and now is a director of the Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce. What will happen if men who are guiding our city’s destiny take a stand of this kind on the age limits? I venture to say this man is many years past the 35-year-age limit, and would be insulted if told he is too old to conduct his business properly, and should turn it over to someone between the ages specified. He should be relieved of any directing influence in our Chamber of Commerce or should broaden his mind regarding the age at which a man should get off the earth. A READER.

SCIENCE

1 BY DAVID DIETZ Important Differences Exist in Explorations Made in the Arctic and the Antarctic. THERE is an essential difference between Arctic and Antarctic exploration which arises out of the difference of the surroundings in which the north and south poles are situated. It is essential to keep this in mind as a true understanding of polar research is not possible without it. There is a tendency to think of the north frigid zone and the south frigid zone as counterparts of each other. In many ways, of course, they are. Extremely cold temperatures are to be experienced at both places. Both experience the long polar day followed by the long night. But the essential difference, which affects the explorers mast, is that the north pole is a mathematical point in a sea of drifting ice, while the south pole is a mathematical point on a continent, a point at a considerable elevation on a high plateau, hemmed in by great mountain ranges. A second important difference for explorers is the ease of approach. The Arctic ocean is reached fairly easily by the explorers of Europe and America. The approach to the Antarctic continent is in itself a long and difficult journey. tS tt ft French PROFESSOR GRIFFITH TAYLOR of the University of Chicago divides the history of Antarctic exploration into two main periods, each of which he divides into two more. First there Is the exploration of the Antarctic seas. This, he divides into two periods, one from 1739 to 1774. The other from 1775 to 1838. Next there is the exploration of the continent itself. This he divides into the period from 1879 to 1907 and the period from 1907 to 1913. In addition, of course, there is the modern exploration, the work done since 1913 culminating in the expedition of Admiral Byrd. One of the chief results of the early exploration of the Antarctic seas was to cut down bit by bit the prevailing notions of the size of the Antarctic continent. The old Greek geographers had said that there must be a large land mass south of the equator to balance the great land mass of Europe and Asia. This idea persisted for centuries. The French were the first to make a serious attempt to find out if this southern continent really existed. On New Year’s day, 1739, Bouvet discovered anew land 1,400 mile* south of Capetown. Fog made it impossible for him to tell if he had discovered an island or a continent, but he sailed for about 400 miles along the edge of the ice pack. Captain James Cook, the famous British explorer, did much important work in mapping the southern hemisphere from 1711 until his death in Hawaii in 1779. tt tt Voyage ON his first voyage, Captain Cook discovered and charted the east coasts of Australia and New Zealand, returning home by way of the Torres straits between New Guinea and Australia. In July, 1772, Cook started on his second voyage. His intention was to survey Bouvet Land, which the French explorer had discovered, and to see if he could settle once for all the size of the supposed Antarctic continent. On Dec. 10, Cook sighted ice and proved that Bouvet Land was only an island by sailing to a latitude far south of where it should have been. On Jan. 17, 1773, Cook sailed across the Antarctic circle. Tills was the first time it ever had been crossed. Cook next turned his course northeast in the hopes of surveying Kerguelen island, the discovery of another French explorer. But he had no better luck with this than he had had with Bouvet Land. So he turned south once more, spending four weeks in latitude 60 degrees. Then he proceeded on March 16 to New Zealand, as he had made arrangements to do to meet another ship. He resumed his voyage some months later, again sailing into the Antarctic. On Jan. 30, 1774, he reached latitude 70 degrees, where his path was blocked by a sea of ice. He continued his journey for another year, repeatedly sailing over open water where the supposed huge continent was supposed to be. He discovered the large rocky island of South Georgia, returning to Capetown on March 21, 1775.
