| President Hoover opened his cam-
| paign for renomination in a speech
| before the Indiana Republican Edi-
| torial association, at Indianapolis, on
| Monday evening. In the presence of
‘a friendly audience he spoke frankly, '
not only in defense of his past record
but of his future purposes. The
| speech was well phrased and cordi-
ally received. It was wisely limited
few questions, the industrial
the tariff, and upon each of these
subjects he simply expressed the
views of Senator Jim Watson and
other Hoosier politicians.
An analysis of the speech would
take up more space than is available
at this time and probably more time
than it is worth. He attributed the
| economic distress to the World war
‘and world conditions and expresses
confidence that time, say twenty
years, and patience will work a cure.
He felicitated the country that some
other nations are suffering more than
the United States but neglected to
(add that there are ample reasons
for this fact, if it is a fact. The
| other nations that are suffering lost
‘heavily in the war while this country
| gained immensely in wealth and in-

He eulogized the Grundy tariff,
| notwithstanding the “iniquities and
| inequalities” which he admits it con-
| tains. There will be no reduction of
‘rates so long as he is able to pre-
vent it. The Tariff Commission,
| which always increases and never re-
| duces rates, is a guarantee of safety,
‘according to his notion. He depre-
cates pessimism as the greatest of
evils and admonishes against
{want of confidence as the stumbling
block to the approach of prosperity.

time a bank closes: In Bellefonte
there are three banks all set and
ready for the hysterical. They are
ready to meet all demands that
might be made on them and the
head of one of them told us, Tues-
day morning: “I pay no attention
to these rumors. If anybody wants
his or her money let them come in
and get it. We have it for them,
but I don't want the fellow who
drew his balance out yesterday ever
to bring it back. Let him keep it
in the ash can. It's the second
time he’s done it and if he has no
more confidence in us than that he
ought not to do business with us.”
We applaud that frank statement be-
cause we happen to know that the
banker who made it knows both of
his competitor institutions feel the
same way. A run on any bank in
Bellefonte would not go further than
to tighten up the present tight fi-
nancial situation. Because they
would temporarily suspend making
new or renewing current loans. All
have enough liquid assets to meet
every demand that would be made
on them and would come through a
run with such nonchalance as would
make a lot of excitable depositors
shamed of themselves.
People?
Governor Pinchot's anxiety for the |
|utility rate payers of the State
seems to have abated since the ad- |
journment of the General Assembly. |
The preponderance of evidence taken |
by both the investigating committees |
auring the session indicated that one |
of the gravest reasons for defect-
ive service of the Public Service
Commission was caused by the in-
sufficiency of funds to promptly and
adequately investigate charges
‘against utility corporations. With
{the purpose of remedying this faull
|in the operations of the Public Serv-
ice Commission the General Assem-
bly increased the appropriation for
that service by $862,000. In approv-
ing the general appropriation bill
the Governor cut that increase out.
In the face of this action on the
part of the Governor there can be
little hope of improvement in the
service. The Senate investigating
| committee recommended several im-
portant changes in the law in order
that more efficient service might be
|rendered. Both branches of the
Legislature agreed substantially on
the legislation recommended. But
Governor Pinchot insisted upon a
provision vesting in him the power
to hire and fire members of the
Commission and rather than relin-
quish that prerogative he caused the
measure to fail. Now that he has
vetoed the legislation which would
have permitted the Commission to
serve the public, the inference that he
is insincere is incontrovertible.
When Gifford Pinchot joined in the
campaign to elect Herbert Hoover
President, in 1928, he revealed his in-
difference to the utility problem. Mr.
Hoover was openly committed to the
Power trust and in full sympathy
with the plans and purposes of the
utility corporations. For that rea-
son Senator Norris, of Nebraska,
bolted his party and supported Mr,
‘Smith by vote and voice. That was
‘the crucial test of fidelity to the
| people and Gifford Pinchot failed to
| measure up to the standard. His
action against the strengthening
legislation and his veto of the ap-
propriation to the Public Service
Commission is additional proof of
hypocrisy. How long will he be
able to hoodwink the people?

Furst, its present owner. This pur-
chase takes the dam, springs, farm
buildings and practically all of the
land under cultivation leaving to Mr.
Furst only his present cabin site and
the mountain side on the north side
of the stream to a point several hun-
dred feet east of the present location
of Geo. R. Meek's cabin. It gives the
government control of the real and
unfailing source of the stream and
about three quarters of a mile of it's
course.
What the developments are to be
there are merely matters of conjec-
ture. It is probable, however, thata
hatchery and nursery ponds will be
installed because both the water
supply and topography of the land
are admirable for such objectives.
We know that the federal authori-
ties have in mind the growing of
bass as well as trout, though the
former involves problems on a stream
of the temperature of Fishing Creek
that have yet to be worked out. How-
ever it all ends there is promise of a
great project. For when the State

BELLEFONTE COUPLE
INJURED IN READING
On Saturday Mr. and Mrs. Frank
Galbraith, of Bishop street, accom-
panied their daughter and her hus-
band, Mr. and Mrs. Edward Shields,
back to their home in Reading for a
visit of several weeks.
They had reached that city in safe-
ty and were only a few blocks from
the Shields residence when another
car, rushing out of a side street,
crashed into them with such force as
to completely overturn the one in
which they were traveling. Mr. Gal-
braith was thrown clear out of the
car and injured about the head and
back. Mrs. Galbraith suffered slight
injuries and both were taken to a
Reading hospital where it was found
that neither was in a serious condi-
ton.
Mr. and Mrs. Shields and their
two children, who were also in the
party, escaped with minor bruises.
Mr. Galbraith is nearing his eighty-
third birthday, but that means little
in his case, for every day he is at
his place of business and puts in
longer hours there than any business
man we know of in Bellefonte.
