FRIDAY. APRIL 17, 1936. A TRAGIC COMPARISON A IRPLANES throughout the world last year killed fewer persons than did automobiles in Indiana alone. The state's 1935 traffic death toll was 1196. This graphic comparison by Merrill J. Edwards, state supervisor of the Governor's Committee on Public Safety, is an indictment of inadequate safety methods in Indiana. It points to a long task ahead in eliminating hazards. MEN IN P.-T. A. r I V HE Parent-Teacher Association, which has been a women’s organization, Is beginning to interest the men. Herman Vorgang of Jeffersonville has been nominated as second vice president of the Indiana Congress of Parents and Teachers, the first time a man has been named to the executive committee. Another sign that Hoosicr fathers are developing an interest in this field is that several of them recently have directed local meetings of the organization. Another man, Dr. G. Bromley Oxnam, president of De Pauw University, will give the keynote speech at the National Congress of Parents and Teachers to be held in Milwaukee May 11 to 15. Indiana women who have made much progress In cementing parent-teacher relations have arranged an interesting program for their silver anniversary P.-T. A. convention here next Tuesday, Wednesday BTld Thursday. National P.-T. A. representatives will speak. Miss Hilda Maehling, president of the Indiana Teachers’ Association, and others will tell of problems in education. Adult education, international trends, school financing and library service are some of the timely subjects that will be discussed. The convention thpme is, “Parent-Teacher Membership—A Stabilizing Factor in the Home Life of America.” Next montfi, InUlanapolls and the state will send a large delegation to the fortieth annual national convention in Milwaukee. The increased interest of fathers in the FarentTeacher Association is a compliment to the women w-ho have made It a valuable organization. There Is no reason why the father shouldn’t be as concerned with these problems as the mother.

BACK TO NATURE TTNTETHERED except by the moon’s mysterious will, the tides will rise and fall off Maine’s northernmost shore at Eastport for yet awhile. And St. John’s River will wend down through Florida to the sea in its old sluggish way instead of becoming * busy common carrier for commerce between the Atlantic and the Gulf. For President Rocsevelt has washed his hands of the Passamaquo.idy tideharnessing power project and the Florida Ship Canal, and left, them orphaned to the mercies of a Congress that already had turned them down. Thus, unless they be revived in some modified form, pass into histor” two of the most controversial Federal projects of all the pump-priming adventure. Secretary of the Interior Ickes opposes them, as do many engineers. I'or the present, at least, they must be written off and charged to experience. Abandonment of these two projects will prove costly. Already same $7,000,000 has been sunk in the railroads, shops, warehouses and the famed colonial Quoddy Village’’ built to house Army engineers and workmen. In Florida $5,400,000 has been spent in the digging of the first lap of the projected canal. Unless work is resumed later this $12,400,000 will be lost, except for the pay checks for the jobless into which it was translated. Yet to finish the two projects would have been much more expensive. Quoddy would have cost $40,000.000 to complete; the canal possibly $200,000,000. Both were of questionable wisdom, to put it mildly. Granting that the turning of tidal energy into electric power was feasible there is doubt whether a sufficient market exists in northern Maine at thus time for the power the tides would produce. Whether the canal would have helped Florida also is doubtful. Opinion was divided, and bitterly so, as between northern and southern Florida. Politics and engineering unpreparedness played the'.r parts in launching the two ill-fated projects. We . elieve there were ample other useful public works to co amand Federal enterprise and credit without resorting to works that were of such dubious benefit. Their abandonment on Congress' doorstep now will give the Administration’s critics new fuel in the campaign. It is better, however, to abandon them now than to send good money after bad. GOOD NEWS FOR THE FARMS P' LECTION year though it is, one New Deal measure is riding the stormy legislative seas without difficulty into the safe harbor of permanent legislation. This is the Norris-Rayburn bill, authorizing the Rural Electrification Administration tc continue its work for a decade and assuring it the necessary funds. The measure as passed by the House authorizes 410 millions in loans at interest rates of not less than 3 per cent to persons, corporations, co-opera-tives and public bodies for developing plants and transmission lines to supply farm homes with electricity. As passed by the Senate the bill carried 10 millions more. This bill is small compared with Senator Norris’ original billion-dollar loan fund proposal. It is also small compared with the extent of the social frontier against which it would move. There are said to be 6,800,000 farms in the United States, 6,000,000 of which are not receiving central station facilities. The House program aims to electrify 1,000.000 farm homes. Like the Wagner housing program, this one is moderate and sound in that it has the long view. The new Federal program will extend over a 10-year period, with onjy M> millions of RFC money made available for the first year and 40 millions annually thereafter. Unlike some other recovery projects this one should be entirely self-llquidative. Not even the most rabid partisans have cared to oppose this measure. There is a good reason why. , They realize too "leenly what it will mean to a million farm families to be able to press a button and get electric light, electric heat, electric power.

What’s more, there is no mill of protest this time from utility companies. They will do much of the building involved, with government loans, and they will sell millions of dollars’ worth of new appliances. Measures like this may well prove to be among the most enduring monuments of the New Deal. DAUGHTERS OF THE UNION npHE first time in history that the Daughter*- of the Union went outside New York to hold their national congress they chose Indianapolis for the meeting place. Asa result, the city today is visited by this national society whose members are direct descendants of Union soldiers of the Civil War, Members from all parts of the country, representing 30 chapters, are here, honoring the memory of Union soldiers. A commendable project of the organization is the awarding each year of four scholarships to Lincoln Memorial College, Harrowgate, Tenn. UNDERSTATEMENT A NEW high In understatement is reached in letters received by Indianapolis fraternity brothers of Gov. Alf M. Landon of Kansas, candidate for the Republican presidential nomination. Writes Claude E. Sowers, Kansas City attorney: “Os course you understand he is -not at this time a candidate, but it is hoped by some of his friends that hft might be persuaded, as a patriotic duty, to assume this tremendous responsibility.” We note, however, that Mr. Sowers—skipping any question about the nomination—urges the brothers to “try to bring about his election to the presidency,” rather than spend any time begging Gov. Landon to become a candidate. “AT BOTH ENDS” PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT contends that one permanent line of attack on unemployment would be to limit “the active working ages at both ends”— to confine the American wage-earning period to the ages of 18 to 65. Let’s examine what is already being done in that direction. Federal proposals looking to the elimination of child labor and the pensioning of elders are on the books today. Their success awaits state co-opera-tion, which is lagging lamentably. There are an estimated 1,500,000 young people under 18 years of age now in gainful occupations There are about 2,000,000 elders 65 or more at work, nearly all of whom would retire if given adequate pensions. If these working youngsters were sent back to school and the working oldsters pensioned, their jobs-ursome 3,500,000—w0u1d be made available for the jobless. Prevented by the Supreme Court from legislating against child labor, Congress passed and submitted the child labor amendment to the states. That was 12 years ago. Since then only 24 states have ratified i{. Through these years special-interest lobbies have iocked action in the 12 states whose ratification is needed to amend the Constitution. States also can amend their school attendance laws to take children out of industry. Under the new Social Security Act the Federal government offers to match state pensions for needy old people past 65, and beginning next year it will beg<n levying taxes for the retirement of industrial workers regardless of need. Since February the oldfl&e pension laws of 28 states have been approved in Washington. Out of a million American people past 65 who now live in whole or part on public “bounty” and who should be pensioned, the 28 states are pensioning under approved laws less than 400,000. StateFederal pensions often are pitifully inadequate, running from a low of $8 a month in Oklahoma to a maximum of S3O in only three states—Utah, Wyoming and the District of Columbia. Seven states—Louisiana, Virginia, Georgia, Tennessee, South Dakota and the Carolinas—have no old-age pension laws at all. Pensions are considerably higher as a result of Federal aid under the new law, but to make them adequate is the states’ job. The way is open now to take children out <*f factories, mills and mines and send them back to school. And, the states willing, needy old folks who wish to knock off work at 35 can be retired at home rather than to the poorhouse.

A WOMAN’S VIEWPOINT By Mrs. Walter Ferguson A PRIL 29 is the date set for the national convention of the Young Women’s Christian Association, in Colorado Springs. A momentous question is up for discussion. Shall the organization build its future program to help youth meet its problems, or shall it make young people themselves a central part of all its decisions and policies? There is, ai you can see, a great difference between the two points. That difference today is sharply distinct in every phase of modern life. It is the great barrier which separates children from their parents, employers from workers, and all those who are beginning to live from the mature. Let us help youth, we older ones say to one another. But we can never do that. We can only teach them to help themselves. Never yet has the man of 50 been able to see eye to eye with the lad of 20; no 40-year-old woman visualizes the world as it looks to the girl in her 'teens. For the old are burdened *ith their traditions, prejudices and fears. In a large measure their daring has gone; looking so often upon stark reality has dimmed their imagination. They are cautious, hesitant, filled w r ith a profound timidity, and because of that they cling to ancient ways. Through the frightening wilderness of existence, they seek roads that have already been cut out by those who ventured before them when such roads were new. In short, women are always perfectly sure they are wiser than their daughters; and men feel certain of tljeir sagacity. In many Instances they may be right. Only let us not be over-con-fident. There will be a battle royal at the Colorado Springs convention—the same battle that always rages In an organization which includes individuals of all ages when it discusses policies, the same strife that goes on perpetually between youth filled with dreams and maturity weighted with traditions. If age wins in Colorado It will spell a long period of fallowness for a great association; should youth triumph, it will mean tremendous progress, great growth. We must learn to let the young lead the way into a future which will belong to them since we shall never see it. Life is before them; they ought not to fear it HEARD IN CONGRESS "O EP. BOYLAN (D., N. Y.): Thomas Jefferson was the foremost apostle of liberty—human liberty the world has even known .. . Rep. Blanton (D., Tex.): Mr. Speaker, a point of order. Has the time come when an oration on Thomas Jefferson by a distinguished orator is of no interest to the people? I make the point of order that there is no quorum present

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Our Town By ANTON SCtIERRER

A HATTER, whom we consider the maddest in town, claims tfrat he can spot a man’s residence by the tilt of his hat. When he's done, he’s got the man psychoanalyzed, he says. For example, if a man wears his hat with a sharp tilt down to the eyes, it’s dollars to doughnuts he hails somewhere on the East Side. What’s more, the sharpness of the tilt indicates the degree with which the man's home approaches the heart of Irvington. And it’s one of the ironies of the system, says the Mad Hatter, that the sharpest tilts are found along Pleasant Run in the neighborhood inhabited by City Councilman Carr, Victor Jose, Will Insley and Harry Jordan. It sustains a theory entertained by many, says the Mad Hatter, that Irvington is a state of mind and not the geographical area some people think it is. an n r T”'HE South Sider wears his hat -*■ straight on his head with little if any tilt. The straighter it is, the shorter the distance between the man's home and Fountain Square. The Mad Hatter says he has never slipped on this one. Like as not, the type is a settled, conservative full-flavored individual like Lutheran Louis Brandt or Father John P. O'Connell of St. Patrick’s parish, who don’t go in for style but know what they want when they want it. Mr. Brandt is a member in perpetuum of the Board of Public Works and Father O'Connell is a monsignor in the household of the Pope and the Mad Hatter believes that both got to where they are because of the rational way they wear their hats. South Siders, says the Mad Hatter, wear the oldest hats in town, a an A SHARP tilt back, off the fore--T*- head, is a dead ringer for the West Sider. This type almost wrecked the Mad Hatter’s system. At any rate, it gave him the most worry, largely because of the trouble he had allocating Charles W. McGarvey. Mr. McGarvey’s sharp reverse tilt indicated a West Side residence and the Mad Hatter was the most surprised man in town when he learned that Mr. McGarvey didn’t live on the West Side at all, but in the urbane precincts of Washingtonblvd. The Mad Hatter feels better since he learned that Mr. McGarvey was born on the West Side. The discovery didn’t hurt his system a bit, says the Mad Hatter. In fact, he believes it proved something. an u THAT leaves the North Sider—a, vicious, sharp tilt in the direction of the left ear —and the less said about it, the better, says the Mad Hatter. Especially in print. The Mad Hatter admits that he can't psychoanalyze a man without a hat—like Walter Whitworth, for instance.

TODAY’S SCIENCE BY DAVID DIETZ THE present tendency of eminent scientists to express their religious views, has drawn criticism from those who do not agree. Chief among those critics has been the equally eminent philosopher, Bertrand Russell. During the last few days I have presented the foundations upon which scientists turn to religion and in so doing have illustrated Jhe point which Lord Russell criticises mast violently. In my first article I pointed out that many astronomers, viewing the universe, are impressed by its orderly functioning and so led to feel profoundly that there must be intelligent design behind it and hence that it must be the work of a Creator. In the second article I pointed out that the Heisenberg principle of uncertainty, which frees the behavior of the atom from the law of cause and effect, is the thing which leads physicists away from a mechanistic view of the universe, enables them to regain a belief in free will, and hence to postulate the existence of mind independent of physical matter. The first view is an appeal td orderliness. The second is just the opposite. As Bertrand Russell expresses it in his book, “The Scientific Outlook”: “Eddington deduces religion from the fact that atoms do not obey the law of mathematics. Jeans deduces it from the fact that they do. Both these arguments have been accepted with equal enthusiasm by the theologians, who hold, apparently, that the demand for consistency belongs to the cold reason and must not interfere with our deeper religious feelings.” When all is said and done, it comes down at the present time to a matter of belief. As Dr. Arthur H. Compton frankly stated in his Easter pronouncement, he has no scientific proof for his belief in immortality. He prefers to believe in immortality because he feels that way about the subject. The significant thing, however, is that, whereas at the end of the nineteenth century it was popular in scientific circles to discount immortality, many scientists today prefer to believe in it.

Millions of dollars have been paid out and we will be paying taxes for years to come when In those years there would have been no need to pay taxes if the brains which members of the C. of C. and others think they have, had been used for the public good. Where in the city do more autos need storage than between Wash-ington-st and the city library? You no doubt have seen a place close to two full squares with a piece of stone sticking v,p in the center and “Keep off the grass” signs all around. I have no objection to that. BUT when that was planned, why weren’t all east and west streets depressed on each side of Pennsylvania and Meridian streets and a public garage built under that square? With low parking charges the money could be used to pay the public debt. The people would get the benefit, not a bunch of men with a pull who have been working all the time to make people put their cars in their private garages. There is another very strong point in my views—Safety—a word that has become a laughing stock with about 99 out of 100 drivers. How many lives would have been

Watch Your Health

BY DR. MORRIS FISHBEIN NUTS are so highly concentrated a food, and so rich in protein and fat, that they should be eaten as a regular part of a meal, and not to any great extent at the end of a meal, which already has been sufficient in both proteins and fats. Neither should nuts be eaten in large quantities between courses, or to add interest to an afternoon tea party. Nuts are valuable in the diet primarily for the same food values that you find in meats. Chestnuts are starchy. Coconuts, pecans and walnuts are rich in fat; almonds, Brazil nuts, butternuts and peanuts are rich in both protein and fat. The protein of nuts contains much the same amino acids as are found in meats. The proteins of Brazil nuts are shown to be ample for the requirements of the normal human body. Peanut protein has been reported to be more efficient than that of the soybean, in support of body growth. Investigators tested peanut flour with the protein of muscle meat, supplementing the diet with butterfat and salts, and r ound that peanut flour proved slightly superior to meat as a growth producer, and much superior for promoting reproduction.

In an article headlined “‘Farmer Labor Group to Meet,” The Times intimates that the purpose, in part, of the Social Security conference to be held at the Y. W. C. A. on April 26, is for the promotion or indorsement of the Farmer Labor Party movement. This is entirely erroneous, giving the whole complexion and purpose of the conference a different character from that which its indorsers and participants intend. The conference has been called solely for the purpose of examining and analyzing existing social security legislaiton in order to determine on their adequacy for the needs of organized labor, the unemployed, the old people and professional groups. Where necessary, amendments to such existing legislation will be proposed. At the conference, and among its prominent indorsers are well-known supporters of such varied legislation as the Frazier-Lundeen bill, the McGroarty (Townsend) bill, the American Youth Act, as well as advopates of existing legislation—both state and national. Senator Albright, Democrat, and a known supporter of the Townsend program, is a scheduled speaker. While it is true that many pro-

Nuts in general are a rich source of phosphorus and a good source of iron, copper and manganese. They are a poor or fair source of calcium. Nuts also are especially valuable for their content of vitamins B and A. ’ Vegetarians are likely to encourage the use of nuts in the diet as a substitute for meat. From the point of view of economy, they may be particularly recommended. The ease of digestibility of nuts depends on the thoroughness with which they are chewed and, of course, on the amount that is eaten at one time. This is contrary to the common opinion that nuts are hard to digest. This belief arose from the fact that nuts have a high fat content, but, more particularly, because they are incorrectly used in the diet. Half an ounce of any of the common nuts will yield 100 calories. This means two Brazil nuts, a half dozen pecans, or a dozen peanuts. The only notable exception to this concentration of energy value is the chestnut, which is about onethird as concentrated as the others. The freshness of nuts at the time of eating is important. The most suitable way for preparing nuts for use in the diet is to brown them and then add salt.

A—Electric lights, yes; but for motors that consume a relatively large amount of power in attaining their maximum speed or efficiency, it is probably cheaper to let them run while not in use for a few minutes. Q—Name the highest and lowest spots in the Sahara Desert. A—The highest altitude is the volcanic cone of Tusidde (Tibesti massif); the deepest depression of the true Sahara is found in a region of schotts (Mreir, Jerid), lying west of the Gulf of Gabes where the surface descends to 60 to 70 feet below sea-level. Q —How many radio broadcasting stations were there in the United States in June. 1927, as compared with June, 1935? A—On June 30, 1927, there were 681; on June 30, 1935, there were 623 (including stations with construction permits).

gressive trade unionists will be represented who have been active in the movement for a Farmer-Labor Party, their activity in this field will be no more officially represented than any other political views which may be represented at the conference. The purpose of the conference is in no way partisan or political and this intimation in The Times article, therefore, as well as the confusion with the coming Socialist Party convention, we feel, has mixed up the issues involved. We make this statement, and ask for a public correction of the April 14 article, so that the indorsers, participating delegates and public will not be misled as to the purpose of the conference. a a a WORKS BOARD OFFERS ITS SYMPATHY Resolution by the Works Board in memory of the late Hubert S. Riley, former board president: “The passing of Hubert S. Riley is a personal loss to us, his intimate associates, of which adequate expression in words can not be made. His lovable character, his personal charm, his devotion to duty endeared him to us; his honesty and purpose and concern for the best interests of the city he loved and served so well were an inspiration to us. “The many citizens of Indianapolis, both in and out of offiicial life, who have known him and his public record as an officer of the local government have paid their tribute to his qualities of leadership and will honor his memory. We can add nothing to the honor of this splendid citizen except to record competently our admiration and affection for him. To his family we offer our deepest sympathy as we above others know what a loss and sorrow have come to them.” DAILY THOUGHT For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.—ll Corinthians 7:10.

EDITOR'S NOTE—Thl* roylng reporter lor The Times toes where he pletsei, when he pleeses. in search of odd stories ■boat this tnd that. AAEXICO CITY, April 17.—Mexlco is full of Mexicans who had to run home when the depression in the United States caught them. There hasn’t been much of a depression in Mexico, they say. Most any place you go that's at all on the beaten path, youll find these prodigal sons, home from the big bad world. They speak English. Pretty good English, most of them. They seek you out. and talk about the States. There must be thousands of them. Take Andres Bedolla, in Mexico City. He Isn't quite like the rest, for he is younger, and was born in Kansas. But the depression caught his father. who worked on the Missouri Pacific, so back came the whole family. They went to the little home town, w r hich Andres never had seen. * * n Bedolla told Andres It *- was a very small and primitive town, and that he wouldn’t understand it, and that he didn’t have to come. But Andres’ teachers told him he’d be a fool not to go. So he came, and for six months he almost went crazy. Andres says he was on the verge of losing his mind. So finally he came to Mexico City, and because he could speak good English he had no trouble getting work. He has been here five years now. and he likes it fine. He is an official city guide, and drives visitors over town. He has fine ideas for his future. He’s going to set up an “information stand” just outside the city limits to the north. Tourists wiil stop there, and he’ll have a staff of boys to drive them over the city. Already one such stand has gone up. but as Andres says, “the fellow* didn't have any more sense than to put It on the left hand side of the road.” Andres wi’l have more sense. He thinks he'll never go back to the States. He thinks he can make a good-sized little fortune in the next ten years. a x a 'T'HE bald-headed fat fellow who explains Rivera's frescoes in the Cortez Palace in Cuernavaca; he talks about 14th-st and 6th-av in New York. The fine old man with false teeth and a flat straw hat I met one night in Mexico City; he talks about his 21 years in Los Angeles. And take “Ralph.” That’s his American nickname. I forget his real name. He works in Cuernaavaca now. He lived In Chicago and Buffalo for 18 years. He was a salesman. The depression sent him back in '29. “It’s better here,” he says. “In the state’s it’s rush all the time. You get up early and rush through breakfast, and run to catch a street car. and only take an hour for lunch and hurry all day, and you're always working against the other fellow instead of with him, and what is called good business is just plain crookedness, and you never have time to enjoy yourself. “Down here I live better than I did in the States, and I don't have to work hard and I have all the time in the world.” n n u IT IS true, as he says, that the desire for money is not in the Mexican people. In individuals, of course, but not in the people as a whole. Outside of Mag the carpenter, whom I met up the road, all these prodigals profess to be happier back here. I doubt it. They have got used to other ways, and they’ve acquired the taste for money, and maybe even a taste for speed. But even more important, I think, is the attitude of their neighbors. A fellow who has always lived in one hut isn’t wasting much enthusiasm, I imagine, on the fellow who went away and learned to live another lfe and be somebody else, and then in the end had to come back to “Poor Street,” which the others had never left.
