. ONE YEAR AGO TODAY A year ago todav United States Infantry, cavalry and artillery advanced down Pennsylvania avenue with drawn bayonets, gas and flaming torches against unemployed American veterans. The first anniversarv of that black and tragic day marked the start of another great movement, this time a mobilization of the entire country for re-employment, under a President who believes that "the economic hell" of the last four years must end. On that other hot July 29. when late afternoon crowds watched with incredulous horror the march of Americans in uniform against Americans in distress, when they watched through the night the reddened skies that signaled destruction of the unemployment camps, fear gripped the country. Any extreme of violence seemed possible on a day when the President of the United States could think of no way to deal with the unemployment except with bayonets and tanks. Today hope pervades a land in which every citizen to the humblest man and woman has been enlisted to end the depression. Under courageous and bold leadership of another President, bayonets and despair have been forgotten. A plan built on the soundest theory known to modern men has been devised to put millions back to work and raise their pay. The army has been detailed to supervise constructive work for unemployed boys in forest conservation camps. In Washington a great government building, past which the tanks rolled last July, is humming with the task o( organizing the peace-time drive m behalf of others without jobs. Officers of this peace-time army are busy in every city and town in the country. A year ago a President stood in the east room of the White House and watched the midnight glare that told him his army orders for destruction were being carried out. Another President may look today from the east room toward the building which houses his recover; general staff and know that he has brought to life again the real America and given her her chance to avoid destruction.

WHAT PRICE LAND GAMBLERS? VjROFESSIONAL real estate subdividers of the latQ purple period added mirth, color, and pageantry to the suburban life of many American cities. Now that their pennants are unfurled and their lyrical exhortations stilled, the costs of their flamboyant schemes are. being tabulated. Some of the subdividers were nelpful to their cities, but many of them were not. The tall grass that almost hides the checkerboards of streets and sidewalks on the cities' outskirts tells eloquent tales of heartaches among eager home-seekers. A group of city officials and college experts, meeting as the municipal finance council in Chicago this week, told of the grief these land gamblers have loaded on city governments in tax delinquencies, tax strikes, and mounting public debts. Land speculators, these officials and experts said, operated in three ways to shake the solvency of cities. They drew funds from municipal treasuries for needless sidewalks, sewers, lights, streets and schools. They drained the banks of liquid funds through huge borrowings. They enticed people from substantial city sections into sparsely settled subdivisions, leaving two poor neighborhoods where one solvent one grew before. The cure for suburban land gambling lies In controlled city planning. WHEAT GAMBLING TO END r T''HE recent orgy of gambling in wheat and the following spectacular crash of the market will have served a useful purpose if they bring about elimination of some of the evils that have so long characterized grain trading. And there is evidence that they may. George N Peck, administrator of the farm adjustment act. minced no words when he told grain dealers that they must set their own house in order or the government would do it for them. He adod that this was not just another warning of the sort issued so often in recent years. -Abuses exist in the grain trades, and they, acting as the marketing medium for the farmers, should .correct these abuses." said Peck. “If they do not succeed, then the government will act ... I know of no industry other than farming which has nothing to say about the price received for its product.” The Chicago Board of Trade and other grain exchanges have necessary and useful functions for producers, processors and consumers. But unbridled speculation and violent price fluctuations such as the country has recently witnessed are no part of these useful functions. Farmers, consumers and business generally must have orderly marketing based on laws of supply and demand. Prices must not be inflated or unduly depressed for the profit of men who never produce or process wheat, and whose transactions exist only on paper. Nor can the government afford to Jeopardize its production control program, on which it is spending $100,000,000 for the benefit of wheat growers by letting speculators reap the benefit. Fortunately. Peek has ample authority under new legislation to enforce the government s will. He can license grain exchanges and all other handlers of farm commodities. And he can revoke those licenses, and put the

undesirable dealers out of business. Such authority heretofore has been lacking. The Board of Trade and the grain trafie are welcoming federal intervention. The price of wheat has been pegged temporarily Bnd price ranges limited. Meantime, lasting remedies for the future can be devised, and this is what the grain trade is attempting to do. BUSINESS IMPROVES FIGURES from Washington tell a reassuring story of the extent of the pickup In business. Activity in June and early July was 89 per cent of the 1923-25 average, an increase of 12 per cent over May. and 33 per cent over July of last year. Output of steel, automobiles. shoes, textiles and many other products Increased. The American Federation of Labor estimates that 1.500.000 persons have found jobs since March. This is a distinct gain, but labor officials point out that 11.500.000 persons still are without work. Success of present efforts of NR A would mean that 5.000.000 or 6 000.000 of these would be employed by September. There are indications that production is running ahead of consumption, since department store sales in June receded 1 per cent. An appreciable increase in employment would stimulate mass buying power. Conditions still remain far from normal and the country is by no means out of the woods. But the curve is swinging upward. A HERALD OF BETTER TIMES A N editorial in The Rail, a magazine published by the Chesapeake & Ohio and Pere Marquette railway companies, points out that however much anti-inflationists may discount the current upward trend of prices, there remains the very solid fact that freight car loadings steadily are increasing. ‘‘Generally speaking." remarks this magazine. “when a freight car is loaded it means that someone has been put to work to make an article that someone else has purchased, and the article has been shipped. All down the line it means that the wheels of industry are turning with increasing tempo." True enough. There are few better signs on the horizon today than those displayed in the car loading figures. If the railroads are getting busier, all of us are going to be busier along with them.

PROGRESS IN AVIATION flight of Mussolini's twenty-four seaplanes from Italy to Chicago may not prove that Uncle Sam's dominion would be in any great danger of being bombed by hostile fliers in the event of war with a European power, but it certainly does testify to the remarkable advance that has been made in aviation. One plane can get across the ocean by a fluke, or by virtue of its pilots exceptional skill. That was done as long ago as 1919. But a whole squadron of two dozen planes can not get across as a unit unless the allied arts of building and flying airplanes have advanced to a remarkably high level. These Italian fliers prove that big strides still are being made in the progress of flying. FAME FOR 1 IN 5,000 TTERES a better chance for immortality! Columbia University Press announces a volume for this fall containing 100,000 thumbnail biographies, which means that one in every 5.000 persons who have died in continental America since its discovery will have a special sketch of his life in the book. From up in the towns of New England, the villages of the far west, the cotton plantations of Dixie, the ranges—the "big” men of their time, and the “characters” are to be enshrined. Many a local celebrity of past American centuries no doubt would be surprised to look down from his celestial retreat and see that he made the "team"—the immortal American 100.000. The book will contain three times as many names as any other book in American biography. A three times better chance to make the all-time all-America team. But the tryouts are pretty stiff yet. MR. HUTTON’S LOVE AFFAIR troubles and disagreements between the eminent Aimee Semple McPherson and David L. Hutton Jr. are not ordinarily of the kind that arouse any very widespread sympathy: but It is not so awfully hard to get Huttons point of view, when he protests because details of his life with the evangelist have been "bandied about in the press.” Being the helpmeet of any public character is apt to be a rather difficult job. When the sharer of your joys and sorrows forever is getting on the front pages, and pulling you to that undesired eminence as well, your nerves naturally are put under something of a strain. And when you are married to a lady like Aimee. who lands on the front pages with such spectacular regularity, the whole business easily can become downright irksome. Those of us who dwell in blissful obscurity can understand that the bright light of publicity does not make the best of all environments for a happy and contented marriage. Aggressive job-hunter in West Virginia invaded dentist’s office while a senator was having a toorh extracted to urge the senator to use his influence to help him get a political job He ought to have known that the demist had the most pull. Maybe the reason people say race track bettors "follow the ponies" is because the average bettor never gets ahead ofvthem. One man who finds that hot. dry weather really helps his garden is the owner of a beer garden. Japanese naval improvements are to co6t 700.000.000 yen, says a dispatch. Seems like those Japs have a yen for spending money. Isn't it strange—just about the time a husband gets comfortable his wife starts housecleaning again. Seems like the weatherman is helping out the repeal campaign. Where's the farmer who isn't tempted to vote wet this summer?

OLD-AGE SECURITY I 'HE national scene has been such a fastA moving affair since last March 4 that most of us haven't been able to follow affairs even in our own states. We’ve felt that we did well to keep track of even the general lines of what the national government was driving at. It has been bewildering. That is why certain very definite social B"‘ns have been made among the states without the public realizing the fact at all. let alone appreciating their significance. For instance: Ten states have passed oldage pension bills since the beginning of this year.* Twenty-five states now have such laws, the American Association for Social Security reports. Os the ten laws passed this year that of Arkansas has been declared unconstitutional, because of its financial provisions. But the winning of nine states during times of financial stringency, to modern oldage security provision is a social triumph which ought not to be passed over in the fastmoving journey we are taking today. These old-age pension laws in twenty-five states cover a population of 55,472.000, or 45.1 per cent of the nation's people. PROTECTING HOME OWNERS r T'HE Home Owners Loan Corporation has acted with commendable promptness to nip a "racket” through which it was said unscrupulous persons planned to profit at the expense of mortgage-burdened home owners. Prospective borrowers, the board stated, do not need paid agents to negotiate their loans. Preliminary appraisals of property will be made without cost, and if the loan is granted the subsequent appraisal and examination of title will be made at a nominal cost. And the board warned of provisions in the law under which persons making unjustifiable and unnecessary charges in connection with loans can be punished by a maximum fine of SIO,OOO and five years in prison. The picknickcr who leaves beer bottles on a picnic ground Is a pest, according to a park superintendent. Members of the picnic party, however, doubtless feel that the real pest is the one who leaves them at home. Beware of the man who always is “as cool as a cucumber.” Quite often, he’s as slippery as a sliced one. A decided decrease in the number of girl bathers w T ho have to be rescued has been noticed at a New Jersey beach since women lifeguards replaced the handsome males who formerly worked there. Auto accessory stores are offering many convenient accessories that motorists can take along on vacation trips, but the best accessory for any vacation trip is a fat bank roll Probably a large part of the success of Wiley Post, round-the-world flier, is due to the fact that he didn't pattern after Mattern. We refuse to dispute the assertion of the Oklahoma state barber board that there are 120.000 hairs on the human head, but if you want to count 'em it’s all right with us. Unfortunately for the average motorist, the government's efforts to reduce the number of hogs in this country does not apply to road hogs. A pugilist's life is one of clinches and breaks, judging from the record of Jack Dempsey, thrice married and twice divorced.

M.E.TracySays:

ADMINISTRATION authorities do not need to be told that they have a wildcat by the tail. The difficulty of stabilizing business by means of a system which regulates wages and hours of labor, but ignores prices, Is self-evident. In this connection, we should remember that buying power is measured by what a. man can get in exchange for what he earns, rather than by the amount he earns. It would do no good to raise •wages 10 or 15 per cent, if the cost of living went up 25 or 30 per cent. It goes without saying that business must be allowed to earn reasonable profits. We can not expect individuals or corporations to provide employment at a loss. By the same token, we can not expect the consuming public to provide markets at a loss. Industry has a legitimate right to protect itself against wage increases and tax increases imposed on it by the government, but it has no legitimate right to presume on the excuse which I this furnishes to boost prices arbitrarily. If it does, it will destroy the buying power and the buying disposition on which recovery depends. The average worker not only needs steady employment, but a margin between what he receives and what he must pay for the necessities of life. If such a margin fails to materialize as a result of the various codes and plans now being adopted, we shall have accomplished nothing. a a tt WE have been telling ourselves that machinery enables us to produce more and more for less and less, and that the real road to recovery lies in a fairer distribution of v ork and profit. We also have been telling ourselves that mass buying power determines production and that business improvement rests almost wholly on what average people can afford. What average people can afford is merely what they have left after they have provided themselves with sheer necessities, plus the desire to spend it. Business leaders can take advantage of the existing situation, jump prices, and collect unreasonable profits for a short time. The adoption of such policy, however, by even a considerable minority, would wreck the whole program. Capital must forego the idea of making big returns immediately, if ever. Restoration and maintenance of buying power precludes the collection of such enormous profits as have characterized our industrial set-up. The idea of making 30, 20. or even 15 per cent mignt just as well be laid aside. It has little place in a program which rests primarily on mass buying power. a a a THE only way to put more money in the pockets of the many is to put less in the pockets of the few. The present situation challenges our commercial and industrial interests to be fair, not only as a matter of common justice, but for their own sake. The warnings of President Roosevelt. General Johnson, and their associates are not to be disregarded lightly. The only way to preserve our form of government. our economic system, and the liberties which both represent is through such practical co-operation for the sake of the common good as will prove that those in charge of our industrial and business enterprises can be relied upon to do the right thing.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

{Time* render* are invited to express their vines in these columns. Make your letters short, so all can have a chance. Limit them to 250 words or less.) By Carl E. Hitch I read your series of stories on the state penal farm, and want to say that they are well written, but a little far-fetched. I understand these stories are based on sworn statements of these different men. but this does not mean that thev are the truth. This letter is sent to you as my defense for Captain Arment and John Mathews, the guard of No. 10 labor line. I served a sentence of six months and a fine of $lO and costs, total of 202 days, made my good time, and was released in 163 days. Was there from Jan. 18 until June 29. and I want to say this, I was treated fine. I could run down the line and name all the guards there and tell you of many kind services I have seen them do for men who deserved it. and I also know that each instance that you have written about is a lie. I know chat Mr Mathews, his and my own guard, coaxed and pleaded with Dan Shipper to work so lie would not have to send him to the captain. I helped to carry Dan Shipper out of the quarry on a supposed faint, and I know it was a fake. I was sixteen months overseas in service and. believe me. I know when a man is out. Dan Shipper has asked me for different methods to run his fever up so he could make the hospital. He was too lazy to work. He told me himself he could play sick any time that he wanted to. and used this way to get easier treatment and less work. He is no good. I know the case of the Mexican going to the hole. He ought to stay there a year. He was a trouble maker of the first grade. As to Theodore Luesse. I helped to build the wall around the quarry with him and I know him pretty well. He Is a red agitator and nothing else. The only thing that keeps the government from deporting him,

AMONG the most important problems in first aid is the handling of heat stroke. This occurs not only in extremely hot weather, but also at any time in factories, engine rooms, laundries, and kitchens where people work in extreme heat associated with considerable moisture. The symptoms of heat stroke may come on suddenly, but most frequently come on gradually. The person who is about to become affected feels weak and tired, gets dizzy and drowsy. The digestion may be disturbed and there may even be pain in the abdomen. The temperature rises, the fever increases, the pulse becomes rapid, the skin dry. burning and flushed, the pupils of the eyes usually are contracted, and the breathing fast and noisy. Just before death the pupils may dilate. It is important to be certain of a diagnosis of heat stroke and to make positive that the unconsciousness is not due to drugs, hemorrhage, epilepsy, or diabeies.

THE lonesomest living thing I saw in Chicago—opulent Circe among cities—was the horse that stood where Washington crosses State street. The policeman who rode him had dismounted and traffic swirled crazily, like the cyclonic winds of some mighty aerial disturbance. There he stood, that horse, a lonely figure in an alien world. Cars scraped his ribs, pedestrians jabbed his nose, horns bellowed about him. Women's' garments swished against his tail He was mobbed by machines and threatened by human floods. Yet his fine head made a nobleness in that place of sordid seifseeking. He was a thing of calm in a monstrous Niagara of haste, peace surrounded by chaos. His eyes, liquid, created for reflecting the distances of a green and lovely world,

The Wheels of Progress

Patriotism Bv E. W. E. Are the daily papers patriotic or not? With our President doing his best for national recovery, it seems to me they especially should stand by him, even if they are not Democratic. The individual pocketbooks should give place to the greater needs of the nation. And when an organization discharges a man two years before his pension is due after a lifetime of service, because he does not happen vo get all the number of subscribers they ask. it is plain what the real trouble is. They make sure to ask the impossible. I do not know the man personally, but I do know of him and his years of work and a good many of us think he has received a dirty deal. A queer start on the NRA. Excuses will not whitewash it. It is those sort of deals that have helped to bring our country to its present condition, and still they are keeping it up. They should be made to pay the pension. It was not The Times that did it.

as he should be. is the fact that he was bom in this country. Alf Williams, was a no-good guard. The sum-up is this: If any one goes to the farm and acts like a man. he is treated like one. but if he doesn't, he gets what he deserves. Remember, the state farm is not a summer resort, but a place to pay off a debt to society that each one of these men has contracted for himself. All have violated some law I did and paid for it and I will defend every one of those guards, with, of course, the exception of two men. who feel their authority, but this occurs every place. Anything I have said here I would say under oath, but, remember, this is a prisoner talking about the men who were placed over him to see that the right thing is done,

Editor Journal of tho American Medical Association of Hrgeia. the Health Marazine. THE ability to keep cool depends on common sense One should wear light clothing, loose and porous. Cool baths at frequent intervals aid in making one feel much better. Adequate sleep keeps the bodyprepared for unusual stress and strain. One should take plenty of water, because evaporation of water from the surface of the body aids control of temperature. Traveling in hot weather is extremely difficult. It is better, under conditions of extreme heat, to str; in an open coach with a free circulation of air than in the smaller compartments and drawing rooms. In case of heat exhaustion, the first thing to do is to get the person into a cool place and absolutely at rest, flat on the back. Sponging with cool water helps to control the temperature.

gazed on pavements shimmering with heat, and stone walls that reared themselves about him like a gigantic prison. He was as strange and out of place in that spot as a dinosaur would be in a pigpen. tt a a PATIENTLY, like men who are caught and held in the grasp of some external circumstance that deprives them of freedom, and who do not realize their own power, the horse on State street, with bridle hanging loosely over the arm of a master unconscious of his existence, remained untroubled as a statue, resigned as a stone. The pride that had been his heritage long since had become slave to those who are physical weaklings beside him.

and anything more that you might want to hear about I will be glad to tell you and the Governor of this state. More power to Captain Arment and John Mathews. Br A. J. H. I agree with Mrs. B W C. in regard to condit.ons at the state farm, but I wish to tell her she is "all wet" regarding conditions at Pendleton. especially during Mr. Miles' supervision. If conditions at the state farm were as bad as pictured, both during Mr. Howards and the last superintendent's time. I do not see much chance for improvement unless Mr. Howard discharges the "hill billies" now acting as guards. Regarding conditions at Pendleton during Mr. Miles' other term. I wish to state that four other men and myself were asked to visit Pendleton. by a newspaper. We were told that no doubt we would be refused admission, but we were admitted by Mr Miles very promptly and with courtesy. He called in an employe and told him to take us through the prison and explain everything to us. Mr. Miles did not know, nor does he know to this day, that we represented a newspaper. We visited workshops, also neat and clean, then were taken to the bake shop and kitchen and found everything shipshape there. We were told that it was almost dinner time and if we so desired we could see the inmates at dinner. We remained and will say that the food was plentiful and well cooked and witnessed several men ask for and be served with the second helping. We were told that no one left the table hungry. Also, we were shown the menu for the week and I will say that 50 per cent of the free homes do not have as good a menu. I am under the impression that 85 per cent of the inmates eat better there than they would on the outside.

It may be necessary to stimulate the circulation with drugs or coffee to help the patient over the acute condition. Tropical authorities recommend that the person be placed as soon as possible on a bed covered with a large rubber sheet, and then that ice and cold water be rubbed over the body. At the same time that the ice is rubbed, the friction or massage encourages the circulation. The temperature should be taken regularly and when it falls to 101 degrees, as taken by the bowel instead of by the mouth, one stops the application of cold, covers the patient with blankets, and makes certain that collapse does not follow. If breathing stops, it may be necessary to apply artificial respiration. After recovery from heat stroke, small quantities of nutritious food may be given repeatedly to aid recovery.

! Cities may be good places for : men. but they are hell for horses. No Dante, walking the aisled ways of Purgatory, could feel more abandoned. more forlorn, than a horse appears on a city street that has been invaded by automobiles. Machine civilization abandns the horse, animal that has done so 1 much for man. It has drawn his burdens, sweated to produce his bread, labored for his security and died in his wars. Faithful servant, true friend, pur- ! veyor of good tidings—a Century of Progress finds the echo of his gallant hoof beats growing fainter. There is no horse in the Transportation building. And on State street, the sight of him standing majestically alone and lonely, gave me a pang of which I am not ashamed.

It Seems to Me == BY HEYTYOOD PRO IN

N r F\v YORK. Jul reason why anybody should be denied the rich: to cm. ::e the National Recovery Act But I could wish that the opponents of the measure would find a common ground Following the President's address. I ran into three types oi sharj sent. Objections of varying s’.ivn h were made by the New York H ir.idTribune. representing the conservative Republican wing; by ?':•. D; dv Worker, official organ of tl. Communist party in America, and bv Walter Lippmann. who repre- > the Walter Lippmann libera: The Tribune was exercised because in its opinion Franklin D. Roosevelt was ' unloosing a en r< ive force of the first magnitude” Which might be used against certain h alers of industry. The Daily Worker contended that the entire plan w.. a scheme of the capitalists to enslave labor, and Walter Lippmann put in a word of appeal for the .!! entrepeneur who may find him: ii crushed between the codes I think that Mr Lippmann factually is more correct than either of his allies, but he has overlooked the implications of his position. After suggesting that the great corporations quite may readily adjust t hemselves to the new conditions he adds: “The small employers are in a rather different position Thty do not in general have any great margin of reserves to draw upon Labor cosis often are decisive lor them. a a a Smaller , but Harsher NOW. that is perfectly true, but if Mr. Lippmann wants to eo on to the logical end of the right- • >;' small business he will have to defend many things which I am sure he does not want to defend. The very fact that “labor costs arc often decisive for them ' makes the small capitalists the most grinding bossi : in the world. Child labor, for instance, is not the creature and the creation of the huge corporations. It is the ace in the hole for tlie men who must find economies of that sort to compete with their larger rivals. Now. surely Mr. Lippmann is not going to extend the hand of fellowship to the small manufacturer who finds it expedient to use childi rn in lus null. And yet this man. in defense of his practices, could quote Lippmann bark to Lippmann and say. “With me. labor costs are decisive.” I not only believe, but hope, that the national recovery act will put a number of small manufacturers complexly out of be me IL. corporations have much to answer for. but the most precarious job holder, the most exploited laborer and the most violently sweated worker is the employe ol the minor boss. The small shop is the first to feel a depression and the last to benefit by a turn. If it is impossible lor these men to meet the meager minimums set by the new codes, then it Is much better that they be forced out of business.

a a a ; Planned Production PLANNED production of any sort always will be impossible until I we deal with large units and not numerous scattered ones. Most of us during our formative years wenbrought up on the political cartoons 'of Mr. Opper, and the Common People wag a wobegone little man I being battered around by great fat giants called th'- Trusts. Much of our economic legislation has been built upon the naive notion that if we kept business from i getting too big it would be in some way sweeter and kinder and more useful to the ultimate consumer. Yet the truth is that universal salvation lies only in mass production. The monopolist may attempt to gouge the public. In fact, he he. done so. He does so now. and he always will be in there trying. But when the brakes an applied it is possible for him to sustain life and still give satisfactory low-cost service. The little fellow will be perfectly sincere in saying "I have to charge this in order to get along o a a Doing Very Best ONE large telephone company may, in its casual and arrogant way, give poor and expensive service to a community. But it ran be made to conform. It can be taken over. Ten little organizations doing their very best would still be much worse. Some of my most Marxian friends continue to stand by beliefs which seem even to a free thinker like myself decidedly heretical. They do not seem to grasp the fact that Socialism is not the antithesis of capitalism but its logical consequent. If you dream of a cooperative community, you mu.”: thi”K of it in terms of big units. Mr Rockefeller and Mr. Ford hav<both done their bit toward advancing the day of the classics society. They have built up orv;inizations so large and so well organized that they are worth taking over.
