EDITORIAL
AMPLE PREPAREDNESS
There was never a more general sentiment against war
than exists today vet there was never a time in the history
of the world when there was more preparation for war in
progress or nations were more prepared.
READY FOR SPRING
The earth, we are told, is rolling on toward spring at the
rate of 18 miles a second. As far as we are concerned we
would like to see the old world speed up a little—say get into
ntermediate or high and get spring here sooner.

STORIES DON'T FIT
Several years ago there was too much tobacco and the
acreage was greatly reduced in order to create a shortage
and boost the price. Last year the packers would have paid
the farmer a better price but for the tax. Later the tax was
removed and this year the universal price for the 1935 crop.
ever though it was the best grown here in many years, was
thirteen cents, about the same as last year.
These crop shortage, tax and other excuses, don’t coin-
cide.
LET EM FARM
Under a new plan the Government proposes paying farm-
ers $10 per acre for land left idle during this year. This is
to replace the AAA plan. That proposition may sound and
be okey for some of the farm land throughout the United
States but it certainly will not appeal to Lancaster County
. farmers.
Why not let the farmers grow all the crops possible? If
the people around here can’t consume the products there are
- ample markets elsewhere.
MANY MORE LIKE HER
Mrs. Anna Sage, of Rumania, an alien in the United States,
got into trouble and faced an order of the Courts to be de-
~ported. In the meantime she became John Dillinger’s “sweet-
ie” and lead the country’s bad man into the trap where he
was shot and killed. Now it develops that she was “prom-
ised” her freedom here in the United States if she double-
crossed Dillinger. She made good the promise but the one
made to her was only a blind. The “woman in red” must
leave the United States because she is an undesirable alien
and rightfully she should. There are too many of her kind.

WATCHFUL WAITING
Depression hit the durable goods industries—slegl, ce-
ment, ete. hardest of all. And it has stayed with them
longest. When the recovery movement started a year or so
ago, it was restricted almost entirely to consumer- goods in-
dustries.
This winter and spring the first real sign of a revival in the
durable goods industries is appearing, largely due to heavy
railroad purchasing. Railroad after railroad has gone into
the market for new cars, rails and locomotives. The rail-
roads are showing increased, though not sensational carn-
ings, are getting more trafic. Their expansion and improve-
ment budgets naturally reflect such betterment.
The farm equipment companies constitute another mem-
ber of the durable goods group which finds times more en-
couraging. According to Business Week, their experience
during January marked a 400 per cemt advance over their
abysmal 1932 low.
Durable goods makers are keeping watchful eyes on the
utility industry. If this industry goes in for expansion and
improvement on a big scale, all heavy industry is going to
feel the good effects.

LEARN ABOUT FIRE
The best friend fire has is ignorance. Its most dreaded
enemy is knowledge.
No one, aside from a pyromaniac, purposely starts des-
tructive fires. No one purposely creates fire hazards or al-
lows them to grow and increase in dangerousness. No one
wants to imperil the lives of his loved ones.
Yet millions of ordinarily intelligent citizens do those
things unknowingly every day. The bulk of them get away
with it—for a month, a vear, perhaps forever. Many of
them don’t—and the dreaded fire demon strikes. And it
strikes so often that, in spite of the fact that substantial
progress in reducing fire loss has been made during recent
vears, the total annual waste comes to several hundred mil-
lion dollars.
Ignorance is one of the prime causes of uncontrolled fire
ignorance that is totally unnecessary and entirely inexcus-
able. There is nothing mysterious about fire prevention.
There is nothing difficult about it. Any fire marshal can give
you the fundamentals in a half-hour’s conversation. Various
organizations, such as the National Board of Fire Underwrit-
ers, after a wealth of literature on the subject which may be
had for the asking. Fach year Fire Prevention Week is ob-
served, and every possible opportunity is offered the citizen
fo {earn how he may do his part to prevent fire.
It is a duty and a privilege to do that. And it will save us
gctial dollars—every-one must help pay for the other fel-
low’s fire. Perhaps it will save the lives of those close to us.
Give a little of your time to learning how- easily fire hazards

New Trial Denied
A new trial and a judgment for
Harry Kegel, Elizabethtown, was
refused by Judge Schaeffer, inthe
suit brought by Harold M. Page,
undertaker, of Williamsport, as the
result of a collision near Mount
Joy on July 7, 1935.
Page sued to recover damages for
a wrecked hearse. In the trial of
the case last November, the jury
awarded a verdict of $2,071.78 a-
gainst Kegel. Loren P. Somer, Mt.
Joy, whose car hit Kegel's after the
other collision, was named an ad-
diticnal defendant but the verdict
did not affect him.
In a second suit resulting fgom
the same accident, Judge Schaefer
refused a new trial and judgment
to Kegel in the suit breught by
Harry N. Yoder, Williamsport, dri-
jured and was awarded damages
of $750.

LOCAL FOLKS CONTRIBUTE
FOR FLOOD SUFFERS

As this is the best medium to
reach all who so generously con-
tributed, making it possible for
Messrs John Dillinger and Joseph
Shaeffer to visit the flooded sec-
tions of Harrisburg, last Thursday
food and clothing they could load
into a car. Because of their mis-
sion they had no difficulty in get-
ting into the city, and the sup-
plies were delivered to the Ameri-
can Legion Home on Front Street.
Again on Saturday afternoon con-
tritutions were asked for and also
through Mrs. William Weldon, of
New Street, who collected in that
section and in less than an hour,
Mr. Sheaffer, was taking all he
could load into his car, for asec-
ond trip into Harrisburg, and again
to the American Legion Home on
Front Street.
Many thanks to all local con-
tributors for their generosity for
this needy cause.
