CIRCULATION OVER 7,000 COPIES EACH WEEK (Tiy EDITORIAL A STORE ON A 42-HOUR WEEK Even today, the forty-hour week for labor is re- garded as something dangerous by those who are gccustomed to think that a work-week should be sixty hours or more This thought comes to our mind as we read the advertisement in one of the largest department stores in a metropolitan city, which announces that during the summer months, ft will close at 5 p. m on Friday and open again on Monday at 12 noon The summer schedule for the store reveals that it will be open only forty-two and one-half hours per week. While it may not be practical for the stores and business plices of Bellefonte to follow the example of the New York store, it should be possible, with gome cooperation among the businessmen and buy- érs of this area, to shorten the hours of business during the hot weeks of the summer. Certainly, the volume of business done does not warrant the long hours that custom has forced upon business houses There is no insurmountable obstacle to the adoption of a summer schedule for business houses which will go further than the afternocon-off that has come into vogue in recent years. With a little cooperation, this can be accom- plished without inconvenience to buyers or sellers and to the great joy and comfort of those who are tied down by the present rigors of an out-moded commercial code METEORS ATTRACT ATTENTION Last week a flaming meteor attracted the at- tention of thousands of people in Ohlo, Michigan, Indiana, Pennsylvania and Ontario. Just a week before, residents of Portland, Ore- gon, reported the explosion of a meteor which was heard and seen over a space of several hundred miles ’ -. Both of these meteors seem to have been of un- usual size. Most of the so-called” “falling stars” that we see are small particles which burn out when they hit the earth's atmosphere. Occasionally, a solid particle hits the earth and sometimes these par- ticles weigh several hundred pounds. The largest meteor collision ever known was reported in Siberia in 1906. It resulted in a crater several miles wide and damaged trees for a radius of many miles. In prehistoric times, a meteor which struck Arizona, created a crater a mile wide. Along the Carolina Coast are certain craters that some scientists think may represent the result of a collision with frag- ments in the head of a comet some millions of YPArs ago. The largest meteor ever picked up was found in Bellville Bay, Greenland, and is a thirty-six and one-half ton chunk, mostly of iron ten feet by six by five. It is now in the American Muséum of Nat- ural History In New York. GIVING THE NEWS TO THE WORLD "The use of short-wave radio stations to trans- mit propaganda into foreign countries has been utilized for years by the subsidized broadcasting stations of Germany, Italy snd Japan. Recently, other countries have resorted to the ether in order to get the news of spethil events into various coun tries, In a few days. this country will have its first 100-kilowatt short-wave station which will broad- cast news to Central and South American coun- tries. Officials responsible for the broadcasts will fol- low the American plan of giving the news “even if it hurts.” Porelgn language expert anhouncefs, born in South America, will relate the news in Spanish and Portuguese so that listeners in this hemisphere can readily understand the broadcasts. Incidentally, American short-wave stations re- port formidable “defense weaporis” are used by Eur- opean Governments to prevent listeners from re- ceiving the American broadcasts. During the Rus- san spy case, & mysterious roar of interference drowned out the announcer’s voice whenever a bul. letin concerned the triall A similar roar was report. ed by listeners abroad during the announcements concerning German news, There are people in the neighborhood who will do anything they can for you—if it doesn't cost them money. Money making may not be the most important task of human activity but it is what gets our ser- fous attention. Some folks are ready to believe anything that they read In the Bible but the trouble jg they don't redd the Bible very often. wha So far, we have discovered few instances where industrialists have locited new pls : in order to The people of the United States, which include the people of Centre county, will have better gov- ernment when they become more thoroughly in. formed about governmental matters. For many years the popular idea has been that there existed three levels of government, acting in different spheres and possessing independent sources of revenue. The dictinction between federal, state and local government, however, is fast disappearing In 1938, according to an analysis made by Prof V. O. Key, Jr., of Johns-Hopkins University, . one- fifth of the total revenue of the 48 state govern- ments was supplied by the federal government in the form of grants. Not only do the states depend upon the federil government for part of thelr rev- enue but many local governments have ceased to be self-contained financial units It is estimated that they depend on state grants and shared taxes for about one-fifth of their revenue In 1938 federal expenditures were $7,626,000 000 according to Prof. Key, who points out that $622. 500,000, or 8.2 per cent, went to state departments under some measure of federal supervision. The con. tribution of the federal government amounted to 19.7 per cent of the total revenue of the 48 states, which is estimated at $3,165,000,000, Prof. Key points out that in 1938 grants for all soctal security purposes totaled $266,048,000. High- way grants amounted to $218,637,000, Other grants included: National Guard, $38.789.797; employment offices, $37,377,830: vocational education and rehabili- tation, $21.220344; agricultural extension work, $17. 251,954; public health services, $8.911,624; agricultur- al experiment stations, $6,229,004; forest funds, $2.- 779.932: state homes for soldiers and sailors, $649 - 884: state marine schools, $75,000 Figures are not available to us at this time to demonstrate the contributions that the state govern- ments nrike to local governments. It is well known, however, that there is much over-lapping of taxation and duplication in the activities of state and local governments It should be apparent to any citizen that any dependence on the part of the state governments to the federal government for funds, or on the part of local governments to the state for funds, inevitably means loss of independence on the part of the re- ciplent government. This is not to say, necessarily that the practice is evil It merely states the fact that whoever supplies the funds for an enterprise, regardless of the nature of it, will sooner or later, direct and control the activities of the enterprise This applies to governmental affairs as well as pri- vate companies U. S. MATERIALS AND JAPAN Our present which include a mandatory embargo on the shipment of arms and ammunition to countries engaged in war, appear not to work well in the Par East Because neither China nor Japan has declared war upon the other, the President has not been compelled to find that a state of war exists, Conse- quently, the Japanese have been able to purchase vast quantities of supplies in the United States, not- ably oll and scrap metal In the opinion of some experts, these supplies have had much to do with the maintenance of Japenese armies in China That the resources of the Unitad States are available to Japan in her war of aggression is un- fortunate. Because Japan has the shipping neces- sary to transport supplies and an open market in this country. she can buy what she needs. China, without ships, is unable to secure supplies here, but that is not our fault In view of the conflict of interests between the United States and Japan in the Par East, it does not seem wise for this country to permit any of its material to aid Japan in her war against China Moreover, when Japan abrogated the naval limita- tions treaties, she served notice on the world that something was under way in the Par East The con- quest of China is only a part of the Japanese scheme, and, to us, it seems ill-advised for the United States to give assistance whatever to the Japanese in the promotion of thelr undertakings neutrality laws TWICE AS DANGEROUS AT NIGHT Investigation of traffic accidents leads to the conclusion that night travel is at least twice as dangerous as daytime travel It seems certain that one of the contributing factors to this increased danger involves the light- ing facilities of modern automobiles. Sometime the accident is caused by inadequate light on the high- way, and, at other times, by excessive glare which blinds the drivers of approaching vehicles. In either case, accidents are more likely to occur. The automobile manufacturers hive made great contributions to transportation in the development of fine motor cars, It is about time for them to give more serious consideration to the development of an adequate and safe method of providing light for automobile drivers. LAZY VOLCANOES CAUSE HEAT The volcanoes of the world have been peaceful for the past few years, and as a result, says Dr. Otlo Strude, the weather has been warmer, The astronomer says that volcanic eruptions throw great quantities of dust particles into the air which partially blocks the rays of the sun and re- duce their intensity for a long time. Without vol- canie activity, the dust is not in the atmosphere and the sun shines down with great power. The doctor's theory Is very interesting but, for one, we prefer the heat. We are wililng to do with- out voleanic activity. The earth, it might be observed, is big enough for two nations to expand and grow without hav- ing to make war upon each other, There are any number of men in Centre county who think they would make good dictators and im- prove upon democratic government. Every problem Is clear if you listen to one speak. er; it becomes confused if you hear another and hopelessly befuddled If you chance upon third ex- pert's views. We may be wrong but we have an idea that the economic distress of agriculture has a lot to do with unemployment in the Industrial areas. American sympathy for China can be expressed substantially by contributing to the relief fund that will aid the unfortunate victims of that unhappy land.
