Electrifying a Nation

Believing that this country is on
the threshold of the greatest indus-’
trial development it has ever exper-
ienced. Secretary Hoover. with the
approval of the President. on Octo-
ber 13 called as Eastern Superpow-
cr Conference in New York city for
a preliminary discussion of what co—
operative steps federal and
authorities can properly take in the
promotion of what is called super-

land and Middle Atlantic states.
Secretary Hoover explained that
the conference was not to put more
government in business. but as pub-
lic authorities were already deeply
interested in power production
through many forms of regulation
and control over powur resources. he
felt that co-ordinntion between pub-
lic authorities and industries would
help in the consummation of a great
.ndvanco in the development of a
great service to the public.
Engineering science has at last
made it possible by the perfection of
high voltage transmission lines of
grout length to send power from dis-
tant sources to the thickly populat-
cd communities. Great economies in
distribution can be secured through
the interconnection of load between
systems and at the some time as-
sure more security in the power
supply from the effect of coal strikes
and transportation interruptions.
As power distribution spreads
across state lines and into diverse
local Jurisdictions. engineering. fi-
nancial. industrial. ownership and
legal problems arise which must be
cmordinnted. it was ; with these
ideas in mind that Secretary Hoover
called the present conference in or-
der that the way might be prepared
to handle the coming situation in
the most efficient and scientific man-
ner. Mr. Hoover snys’:

"Every time we cheapcn power
and centralize its production we
create new uses and we add security
to production; we also increase the
production. we eliminate waste: we
llL'Cl'cusc the burden of physical ef-
fort upon men. In sum. we in-
crease the standards of living and
comfort of all our people;‘

“This new era of advanced pro-
JL-cts is no theorists' or promoters'
dream. It is a basic fact . unani-
mously supported by our engineers;
agreed to by the responsible men in
the industry. it is true that there
has been progress in the actual ap-
plication of scientific advances in
our national equipment. but we are
far from the realisation that is to-
day practicable. 1 dc not wish to be
construed as stating that no pro-
gress has been made in enlarging
co~ordination of our power produc-
tion and distribution. The electrical

the Public Service Commissions.
have already made excellent inter-
connections on the Pacific Coast
reach from the southern border of
California to Oregon:. the States of
Illinois. Indiana. Wisconsin and
Michigan are associated in a net-
work of interconnections as are
Georgia. Alabama. North and South4
Carolina and Tennessee. This being
the case—one purpose of this con-
ference is to consider—why does this

power zone of our country where
the greatest saving can be made.
not make progress? What measures
can be devised to stimulate it? .What
obstacles in its realisation can be
removed

-”In the matter of public relations
to pwer development and distribu-
tion it appears to me that one of the
first principles we must realize is
that the whole of this development
implies the free flow of power. We
have thus at oncorcreated at least a
physical and economic interstate
question. .Thts great development of
so much public interest cannot come

Enforcement of Law

 

It is rumored in ’Washlngton that
Congress will be asked to appropriate
the handsome sum of $25,000,000 to
further the .enforcement of the
eighteenth amendment through its
enforcement act. says The New Ha-
ven Journal Courier. We have no
knowledge of the necessities which
Justify this proposed ..ppropriation
nor have we objection to offer that a
sufllcient sum should be provided to
have the law enforced. The only
point we have to suggest. to 'which
no intelligent objection can be offer-
ed. is that the appropriation should
be large enough to secure the en-
forcement of all law especially that
emanating from constitutional
sources.

Mr. Cummings of Stamford .. has
made out a strong case against the
defiance of the Volstead law and an
equally strong plea. for its enforce-
ment. The same can be said of Chief
Justice \Vheeler and former Judge
and governor. Marcus H. Holcomb.
The pity is that it should have been
left to Nicholas Murray Butler. pre-
sident of Columbia University. to
urge the enforcement of all laws
emanating from the constitution
The first amendment. which secures
to the citizens the right to freely ex-
ercise the religion of his choice and
to exercise his right to freedom of
speech. is not enforced "wnue the
nation looks on with an indifference
which is sometimes tempered with
amusement and sometimes with
contempt." The fourth amend-
ment. which secures the citizen pro-
tection in his person. house. paper.
and effects. reasonable searches and
seizures at the behest of some dema-
gogue or fanatic or group‘ of such.“
The citizen "sees the provisions of
the fifth amendment as to double
Jeopardy for the same offense and as
to the protection afforded life. lib-
erty and property by due process of
law whittled away to something that
approaches nothingness by specious
and unconvincing legal reasoning."
The fifth amendment. which secures
to the citizen regardless of color.
etc.. his right to. vote. has long since
ceased to be of popular or govern-
ment concern. The negro citizen‘ of
the south is denied his legal right
and the country remains indifferent.

If the demand for the enforcement
of the law is based on Justice and
a regard for orderly government, as
of course it is. why should it be
limited to one amendment? \‘i’hy is
the enforcement of the eighteenth
amendment so much more important
than the fifteenth that a huge appro-
priation should be made to enforce
the one and an appropriation to en-
force the other witheld? “’hat is
the process of thought which in-
spires men in high public and Judicial
station to concentrate on one law and
ignore the others? What would be
the fate of a bill in congress appro-
priating ten or twenty times the
amount ‘of the proposed appropria-
tion for the enforcement of the
eighteenth for the enforcement of
the fifteenth? “'hy. here in the
state of Connecticut. should we get
so angrily excited about the enforce-
ment of the Volstead ah and sit
quietly by and see the Sunday ob-
servance laws defiantly violated dur-
ing the open season as regards base
ball? If we are to have a spotted

“ The Sample Case Fraternity.

 

At a. meeting of the National
Council of Traveling Salesmen held
at New York last Thursday the fol-
lowing message was sent to Secre-
tary Mellon. the author of the pro-
posed tax reduction measure: "The
traveling salesmen of the nation sp-
prove and ”commend the wisdom of
your position regarding the reduc-
tion of the fearful tax burden under
which the initiative and progress of
our people is being smothered." A.
M. Loch. the president of the coun-
cil. declares that it represents 88
salesmen's associations with s. com-
bined membership of 300.000!"

These are. the lads of all ages who
are the field agents of prosperity.
says the New Haven. Journal Cour—
ier. They cover every acre of ac-
tlvity .large and small. in all sec-
tions of the country. They not only
carry to the tradesmen of the coun-
try their wares. but they bring away
with them the political sentiment of
their neighborhoods. A salesman is
something more than an attest to
distribute his goods; he is s. philoso-
pher. guide and friend. He is more
than a conversationslisi: he is a di~
plomat. He carries in and out so
that. when he meets with his tribe
and they exchange thoughts upon
the state of thcunion. a large meas~
ure of truth and fact results. We
may rest assured that when the Na-
tional Council of Traveling Sales-
mcn decides that the Mellon pro-
gram of tax reduction promises to
lift the load from the backs of the-
taxpsyers and at the some time pro-
mote their prosperity thcre is some-
thing substantinl to it. They know
what they are talking about.
Thus day by day the chorus of
praise'for the Mellon program grows
in volume and strength. It is aUCh
a simple plan. so freed from the
complications of political duplicity
and from the suspicion of having
been engineered in some back room
that to oppose it. or to attempt to
modify it. in the interest of a selfish
purpose subjects its advocate to
deserved critical scrutiny. It is built
up in its philosophy upon the moral
rights of the earned incomeas eon-
trasted with the normal right of the
income received from investment.
The earned income islimltcd to the
physical power of the individual to
work. The income from invest-
ment has a. power of success beyond
the effort‘ of the individual. It is.
therefore. to the man whose income
is dependent upon his health and
strength that the Mellon plan first
gives its attention. but it does not
and "shoul dnot ignore the. immense
importance of vested interests to the
life and happiness of the wage earn-
er..

Incom‘e from investments should
bear a larger measure of taxation
than the earned income. which is
wage. ‘ No objection to this theory
of equitably distributing the burden
is offered- by the investment class.
The objection offered is to an inor-
dinate percentage of taxation by
which investment is strangled and
busine. destroyed. the result of
which is to strike at the prosperity
of all. It is s. very pretty idea some
amateur economists have. that 'by
ridding the earned income of all re-
sponsibility and‘lohding up the in-
vestment income -.to the limit. not
only by greatly increased tax rates.
but heavy surtax and excess profits

amount of tax exempt securities that
has been issued for the market and
absorbed has proceeded. not from a
natural taste for them by their pur-
chasers. but from a determination
not to bepenalised by unfair taxa-
tion. ‘ ‘ ‘

 

Overuko The Canadian“.
Canada. alive to some if not all of
her oportunlties. has secure'd the
Jump on the United States in a field
which is not hers by any recognised
right. says the Bridgeport Telegram.
Industry and luck were the factors
which operated, with telling effect
to make Canadian flour sell better
and faster in Germany than. the
product turned out by American
mills. But to all appearances. the
handicap is not a large one. and
there is every reason tobelicve that
Americans can bridge the gap and
secure a substantial share of the
business in this foreign market.

According to the Department of
Agriculture at Washington. Lana:
dian flour is giving the American
product sharp competition in Ger-
many. for you reason. because of its
quailyt. which is not necessarily bet-
ter. but which is different. and for
another reason. because of the fact
that Canadian mills are willing to
accept payment in cash documents
at Hamburg. whereas American
mills will xscll only against sight
draft on New York. The Department
of Agriculture's Commissioner at
Berlin reports that flour importers
in ”Germany are already handicap-
ped by the depreciation of the mark
and are further embarrassed in meet
ing the payment of sight drafts in
New York by reason of the fact that
these transaction involve a pelccnt-
age for the exchange brokers.

Perhaps the best understanding of
the situation is to be gained from a.
part of the Department of Agricul-
ture report:

Canadian flour. tho Commis-
sioner (at Berlin) reports. has
lately obtained higher priccs in
Germany than American flour. He
says German consumers like Can-'
sdian flour because ofrits sharp-v
nose. The demand for Canadian
flour in Germany has surprised the
trade. because it had been thought
that it could find a market only in
Cache-Slovak- government; to
protect tho‘nstivo. wheat crop and'
flour mills; . prohibited.- tho imporu
tatlon offlour. Formerly Cana-
dian flour passed into Cseeho-
Slovakia through Germany. The
movement .into Germany cone
tinned in such volume after the
Galactic-Slovakian embargo went"
into effect. as to pron that the:
one for Canadian flour. .
But Americans can secure then;

share of thisgt‘rade by making bet;

 

 
 
 
 

that such a move would be a great-
help in widening the market . for

THE SELFISH came on THE
W , CHERCH.~ ,, .7

A Detroit man resigned as a mem-
ber of a. church recently because.
as he said. he was “tired of politics ‘
in the pulpit." of “criticism of the
best government on earth." and of
various forms of “propaganda" deal-

The resigned member indicated that
what he wanted in the church was
"solid religion."

There is expressed in this case an
attitude that is widely typical. Those
who leave the church, stay away
from it and refuse to have any part
in its work usually are ready with
explanations as to their positions
are no more than excuses and slen-
der excuses at that. Usually the
trouble is some defect in the church;
never apparently, is there any defect
in the critic of the church.

It is evident that each individual
can hardly get Just what he wants
in the church. Solid religion in the
case of the Detroit citizen. for ex-
ample. might be one thing to one in-
dividual and something quite dif-
ferent to another. To many think-
ing people solid religion certainly

would have to take account of the

 

 

world we live in. its great efforts at
reform. such as prohibition. the out-
come of elections and the conduct of
the government. The minister or
the church that plays hand-off in
these evil matters is not going in for
solid religion. “Genuine," "solid or
"real" religion to some appears to
mean that type of faith and worship
that interferes least with the actual
conduct of everyday life.

Criticism of the church as an ex—
cuse for indifference. or selfish de-

is of little value in any direction.
The legitimate critic of the church,
and there is a need of him. is the
man who is inside the church and
trying to make it perform the beet
possible service to humanity. That
