CURRENT
COMMENT
It does not seem so long ago
when the streets were filled with
marching men singing “There’s a
long, long trail a-winding,” but
there is a troup of husky young
folks who remember nothing at
all about that. The group that
was not even born when Presi
dent Garfield was shot is still
more numerous. On the whole,
it is safe to refer to the period
that lies between 1882 and the
World War as belonging to the
‘old times.’ Some might call
them the “good old times.” Good
or bad, they embrace a stretch of
approximately thirty-four years
when the national debt was less
than two billion dollars.
The Senate and the House are
in substantial agreement regard
ing the appropriation of about a
billion and a half for relief. That
sum would have wiped out the
entire national debt for thirty of
the thirty-four years to which
reference has been made. No ad
verse criticism of relief is intend
ed and no opinion is offered on
the subject of spending money.
The sole end in view is to indi
cate the meaning of figures that
are too large for the mind to
grasp when stated in mere terms
of dollars and cents.
"
There are details of the Relief
Bill which will have to be work
ed out in conference between the
legislative branches, but the fund
undoubtedly will be placed at
the disposal of the President,
rather than in the hands of Mr.
Hopkins as the House at first pro
posed. The soldiers are to be
well treated. The fact that they
are to receive a bonus will not
militate against them so far as
the matter of relief is concerned.
Among other projects upon
which the legislators look favor
ably are the resumption of work
on the Florida canal, aeronau
tics, social security, and an inves
tigation of the telephone and tele
graph business. Adjournment is
in sight, with tax laws as the
only bar to the cessation of Con
gressional labors, and that ob
stacle likely to be removed be
fore these words are in print.

Fixing a minimum wage is
i something that has had hard
sledding of late. About three
weeks ago, the Supreme Court of
the United States ruled that, i
' aside from the pay of those en

gaged in work relating to com
merce, Congress could not set a
wage scale. That decision was
followed recently by another to
the effect that the states are with
out power to set a minimum
wage. There seems to be no
source, state or federal, from whi
ch minimum wage regulations
can lawfully proceed. The basis
for the findings of the court is
the right of the individual to
make contracts about his own
affairs. Adverse criticism of the
decision is found in the dissent
ing opinion of Justice Stone, who
states in substance that the consti
tution does not commit the coun
try to a particular set of econo
mic beliefs any more than to a
system of theology. The Presi- j
dent’s disapproval finds expres-'
sion in the statement that there
has been created a No Man's
Land wherein no government,
state or federal can operate free
ly and properly in the regulation
of wages.
The French and the English
are joined in rivalry regarding
the building of large and speedy
passenger ships. They pay us a
i compliment when they contend
jin an effort to provide a means
whereby a person in Europe can
|get to the United States as quick
ly as possible. Both countries
| are to be commended for their
I progressive spirit, but England
deserves a word of praise on the
side. The officers of the “Queen
Mary” checked her speed, with a

ed by the court as the date and
place of hearing the same and
the objections thereto and the
settlement thereof and that at
said time and place the said pro
bate court will adjudicate and

fort and assurance for the trav
eller by sea in the thought that
sailors still are men who obey
orders. Ship owners appear to
have made progress since the
days of the Titantic, when, just
ly or not, it was rumored that
the vessel was driven into an ice
berg because her skipper was un
der a prod from the home office
that compelled him to make
time.

Tracks Alaska
(By The Associated Press)
SEATTLE, June 27, — Father
Hubbard, seeking dinosaur tracks
in connection with the Indian leg
end of huge tracks left in rock
by a prehistoric bear “the largest
ever lived", was busy today
stowing three malemutes and
equipment aboard the steamship
due to sail today.
He explained if tracks are
found somewhere in the region
of Inglin river and eastward he
believed he could prove they
were made by giant reptiles ag
es ago.
