Editorially Speaking:
Tue QuestioN WE CouLDN'T ANSWER
People have a way of asking questions which we can’t
answer because the authority to answer rests with someone
else. Such a question came to us this week. It should have
been addressed to the volunteer fire departments in the
Dallas section, and so we are passing it on to them.
“Why,” a public-spirited
always so difficult to locate a
alarm is sounded? Sometimes
the blaze if they're not near a telephone. Why couldn’t the
fire companies out here adopt a system of signals which
would disclose the location of the fire, at least the general
direction, or enlighten people a little beyond the mere fact
that something is burning ?”’
It’s a good question. When we submitted it yesterday,
to the chief of one of the local fire departments he agreed
that it was a good one. We pass it on now to the fireme:
of Harvey's Lake, Dallas, Trucksville and Shavertowr
volunteers all—and count our
especially timely suggestion in
M. Laing Company is taking a new lease on life and show-
ing a praiseworthy earnestness about improving its protec-
tion. .
It would seem easy enough to decide upon a simple
alarm system. One blast of the siren might mean “house
call—no fire’ and be reserved for meeting nights.
’. Other numbers might give,
not only the general location of the blaze, but other ififorma-
tion, i. e., “grass fire”, “call out of town”, etc.
toots generally mean “fire out’
Moreover, it should contribute to the solution of a pro-
blem which has always annoyed firemen and the/local tele-
phone company. As soon as the fire equipment rolls, curious
citizens besiege the telephone exchange with requests for
information. Frequent announcement that the location of
the fire will be given only to members of the fire company
has scarcely stifled the eagerness of the citizenry to know
what is burning and where. An alarm system should elimin-
ate a good many of such calls, leaving the lines open for
emergency calls.
As we explained, it is not within our province to
answer our friend’s question, but we believe it deserves some
gentleman asked us, “is it

POST
SCRIPTS
The following document was dis-
covered among a litter of confetti,
empty bottles and badly-broken
resolutions early last Sunday and
submitted to The Post’s “Lost and

that it would come eventually into
the hands of the proper persons.
If the Executor mentioned reads,
this, he may claim the document by
presenting himself at the offices of

They are informed that milk
will go up one cent a quart be-
cause the drought has in-
creased the dairyman’s costs.
They may even wonder,
once in a while, why they have
to pay as much for a quart of
milk they buy at the store as
they do for a quart delivered
by a milkman in a shiny truck
at their door.
But the average person never
bothers to add all these things up.
and so he goes on, year in and year
out, paying as much as four cents
more than he should for his quart
of milk—the price of his indiffer-
ence to a major American problem.
The farmers are organized. After
years of taking their medicine si-
i lently, farmers in the Dallas area

The dealers are organized. Bat-

ready to arise at the slightest

made in plants and trucks.

In a vague sort of a way, most people who read news-
papers know that there is a milk problem.
They see newsreels of farmers who, having milked their
cows, proceed to dump the milk in country lanes.
They réad that Americans are, for some reason, not con-
suming as much milk as thev need for health and stamina.

Even the State has its finger in

Commission, which hears petitions
from dairymen and dealers and de-
cides from the evidence how much
each is to receive and how much
the consumer is to pay,
All He Does Is Pay
Only the consumer—who pays
the bill—has no organization. He
seems content, probably because no
one has ever impressed upon him
the magnitude of the problem he
has been ignoring.
Quite likely, he is not even aware
that the milk business in United

the $2,800,000,000 meat-packing in-
