P. VAXTS BOTH SIDES. To the Editor of The. Star: I suppose J. H.

Hill of Shelby-ville would be perfectly satisfied if Arthur Brisbane and every other sensible man would shut their opiri: ions up within themselves and follow Dr. Shumaker. We have so many reformers working, as they say, for the bpfterment of humanity that it is dangerous for a man to express his honest opinion. There is not any e'ass of people in the world today that will slap you, throw you out of your job, and push you in the mire as those who are trying to better humanity. The letter of J.

H. Hill is in keeping with the way reformers work. They want but one side of a question presented and that is their side. They would hide all argument and blind the truth if it did not coincide with their beliefs. Rather than a narrow view from either side the general public would like to have the truth and then a chance to form an honest opinion.

I am truly glad to be living when a few such men as Brisbane observe conditions and then have the nerve to express an honest and sound opinion. H. C. BLACK. Derby, Ind.

MOTOR CLl'B SERVICE. To the Editor of The Star: I may be wrong in expressing my point of view, but the treatment I received from a certain motor club of this city is worthy of a little comment. Planning on making a trio this fall to California, I called up this Dartic- ular motor club, asking them the most reliable southern route. I was asked if I was a member of the club. and upon a negative reply was curtly informed that no information would be given because I was not a mem ber.

Immediately I wrote to a well- known motor club of California. Not only did they do me the courtesy of answering with a three-page letter, but under separate cover sent strip maps covering three optional routes and street maps of the town in which I wish to locate. They also advised me to write about two weeks before making my trip and they would give me the latest and most up-to-date routes, I am not a member of their club either, but certainly intend to join when I get to California. It is no wonder that Indiana club has no better membership compared to the number of automobile owners in the state. A little courtesy will go a long way in winning members for any club.

Am sorry to have to ad- equipment was turned in yesterday and the trim khaki-clad soldiers became the ordinary civilian rookies, so far as their military bearing was concerned. The closing week has been devoted to a series of inspections, parades and athletic events, a summing up of lessons learned on the drill ground mixed with various forms of competition between units and individuals. There is every reason to believe that not a single young man regrets the time spent at camp as the guest of the government. The majority are returning home in better physical condition than when they arrived. Living in the open, with regular hours for eating, sleeping and exercise, will work wonders even in a few weeks.

The cadets have learned the essentials of military tactics. The camp discipline should have increased their respect for constituted authority and the drill maneuvers sharpened their wits. In addition to these benefits the training camp provided a fine lesson in democracy. Young men from homes all over the 5th corps area met on a common level and proficiency alone won any preferment. The value of these camps has impressed itself so strongly on a majority of the public that former criticism has almost completely disappeared.

A concerted effort by a pacifist minority had sought to prove that elementary training in army tactics breeds a spirit of militarism. The charge was without the least foundation and speedily fell of its own weight. The camps have a distinct value and should A HOOSIER LISTENING POST. The law of supply and demand is me regulatory measure on which permanent farm relief should be based. Equalization fees, debentures and other artificial stimulants might produce some results but those would be neither lasting nor satis-factory.

The farm industry, once established on a firm foundation of business co-operation, should be in a position to gauge its output to the demands of the market. That is an objective toward which the Federal farm board is expected to work. One of the difficulties with some classes of farming in this country has been that each tiller of the oil was going ahead individually and often blindly in his operations. He had little or no idea as to what would be likely to be absorbed most advantageously to himself. He raised wheat, corn or something else, regardless of world conditions and the prospect of a glut in the home market.

If, for example, the farmers can be directed along the lines of a better balanced output, they may expect higher prices as a natural result of the law of supply and demand. If a part of the land devoted to wheat is used to raise something else needed in this country and the surplus of wheat for export is cut, the tariff on that cereal immediately would be a greater benefit to the growers in this country. Another handicap under which our farmers have operated has been the tendency to rush in and raise a bumper crop of something that yields a good price in any given year. result, too, often, is a surplus, with low prices and, little profits the next season. That ignoring of the laws of supply and demand also may be corrected by proper organization and leadership, such as the farm board may be able to Inaugurate.

A man who goes to California, or any other state, should not be surprised, after he has been there a while, if he is expected to help to pay for the service a motor club gives. The membership of the Hoosier Motor Club, compared with the number of automobile owners in the state, is much above the average for such organizations.

GIVES TAXPAYERS' SIDE To the Editor of The Star: Your editorial on English avenue improvement states the facts as they are, but may lead Mr. Moore to as sume "we, the resident," property owners are opposed to this very nec essary improvement. We object to the board methods only. The ad vertiaement for bids plainly reads "costs of said improvement to be paid by abutting property and 150 feet back." Bids have already been received for some of this work. The city, Until a hearing yesterday be fore Judge Elliott, has said nothing of an intention to stand any part of such costs.

I own a lot on English avenue. It is assessed for tax at $800. It was J812 taxed for sewer in past year. Now comes Mr. Moore and tells us.

"If we want a good street we must take what they propose to give or in two years we will have no roadway at all." The new improvement will be only about $1,500 on me. Where will my little $800 lot be? This is only one of dozens of others along English avenue, many trying hard to pay out on their homes bought on the payment plan. We all want this improvement, perhaps as much as the Inter State Bus lines, city street car company and the many auto owners living in Irvington. But we object to carrying the entire load. S.

Brisbane's comments on the prohibition question, and can not see why he should be subject to criticism, unless it be for presenting conditions as they really exist. The press is censured a great deal for publishing crime, but the question in my mind is this: Is it better to turn deaf ears and blind eyes toward, the present condition of law and order and try to "kid" yourself with the belief that the law is being enforced, and that enforcement officers are fulfilling their sworn obligation, to the best of their ability, for the greatest good of the nation; or, to come out squarely with the truth and make an effort to do something about it? I heartily agree with Mrs. M. R. of Indianapolis that prohibition would be a good thing if it really existed, but when it has done nothing more than change the name of the saloon and taken the liquor business from the control of the government and placed it in hands over which there is no control, I can't see for the life of me whcjte prohibition deserves so much meritorious comment.

To my mind, prohibition will never be realized until our lawmakers themselves are willing to obey the laws of their own making, and our enforcement ifficers become sufficiently conscientious to do their sworn duty, instead of doing nothing and drawing two salaries, and professed Christians really and truly adopt the spirit of the Christ and live according to His example and teaching MRS.

Science must, if it is to complete its job, help us to work out ways and means of controlling the situation its analysis and forecasts have revealed.

There are, therefore, three phases of the foresight of the scientist. They are: Positive knowledge. Reliable prediction. Efficient control. We might remake our civilization in one generation if all of us, or a controlling majority of us, really brought this sort of scientifis foresight to the affairs of our time, but unfortunately most of us are practitioners of fortune telling rather than scientific foresight.

If we are conservative, we predict that innovation will bring doom; if we are radical, we predict that our pet scheme will mean the dawn of a new day. And so our civilization proceeds as a game of pull-and-haul between unreliable predictions. (Copyright, 1929.)

His attack upon the power mergers in New York raises the issue on which he will seek another term as Governor of New York; and if it proves a winning issue in New York, it will be his basis of appeal to the De'mocrats nationally two years later. Any Democrat who can be twice elecCed Governor of New j.ork is a real contender for the Democratic nomination for the presidency. The Democratic party, looking for a winner in a national election, can not overlook a man who has shown strength with the voters of New York. The odd part of it is that the Democracy's two leading possibilities come from New York, Governor Roosevelt and Owen D. Young.

It may almost be said that the party has at present no outstanding candidate for the presidency except these two. One of them represents one side of the power issue and the other one probably the other side, for Mr. Young, as head of the General Electric Company, can hardlv believe that there is any danger in combinations of power companies in themselves. He would probably put the stress on the necessity of public regulation of them.

The inclosure was about four acres, the size of a city square. Mr. Shaffer died within a few weeks after the selection of the site, and after remaining for a time in a grave near his double log cabin on the high ground south of Pogue's creek, near Pennsylvania street, his remains were removed to the graveyard, am were first buried there." In 'Early Reminiscences" Nowland gives a brief sketch of this Daniel Shaffer who was, he says, "A Pennsylvania Dutchman who came direct to this place in 1821. He brought the first merchandise of any kind to the New Purchase, or at least to this place, and was the first merchant of Indianapolis. He built, with the assistance of the settlers, a double cabin south of Pogue's creek, on the high ground, the southern terminus of Meridian street.

He was a large, stout man, about 40 years of age, dark complexion, very black hair and eyes, and had the appearance of having been a laboring man; indeed, just such a person as would meet with a hearty welcome by all the settlers. He semed to take hold of what was necessary to be done for the common good, and with a will that showed great energy and industry. He was first to call on the 'newcomers' and tender in the behalf of the settlers such aid and assistance as they could and were able to render; was foremost at house raisings and log rollings and at all times ready to make any sacrifice to help his neighbors." The last time Mr. Nowland saw Daniel Shaffer alive was when he was helping to build Matthias Now- lnnd's second log cabin and it was the labor of that day his task being the heavy one of 'carrying up a corner' that brought about his illness and death. This was the rnst disheartening thing that had happened tn the new community, says Mr.

Nowland "It seemed his loss could not be supplied by the accession of a dozen men or families; independent of his great services, every one looked upon him as a brother." Mr. Nowland tells of Daniel Shaffer helping to select the graveyard and being the first to lie within its limits. Also, that his father. Matthias Now- land, reouested to be laid by his friend's side. He adds, writing in 1870, little guessing how soon this cemetery was to disappear: "May the march of Improvement and onterprise, now so busy in the immediate neighborhood of the sacred ground where rest tha bodies of those tv old settlers, never desecrate their graves, or lay unhallowed hands unon them; but mav they be permitted there to lie until that day when the graves shall be called upon to give up their dead to annear before the Great Judge of the Universe." from this, but by daily care it can be minimized so that it is not noticeable.

The treatment consists of a daily scrub bath, followed by the application of some lubrication, either a mild cold cream or oil, or a glycerine solution. (Glycerine, one part to four or five parts of distilled or rose water.) I have had little personal experience with the condition, having ha but one case, that of a baby, whose skin responded better to the glycerine solution than anything else. It is possible that sunlight treatment, either through ordinary sun-baths, or artificially through ultra-violet ray machines, will be helpful, beginning with two: or three minutes daily, and increasing one minute daily until an hour or longer is reached. In this way, the skin is gradually tanned, but not burnt. I would make a friendly call on your thoughtless neighbor and tell her what your doctor and I have told you.

Address Dr. Peters, in care of this Tomorrow Vacation. In the scrap book for 1885 compiled by the late Mrs. James G. Mitchell, which has been mentioned in this column, is found an article on the old cemetery and some of the illustrious men of early Indianapolis who are buried there.

"Passing by the old cemetery of Kentucky avenue the other day, the writer, who had not been inside the fence for a half score of years before, went in to note the changes that had occurred; some conspicuous enough from the outside; some only perceptible to close observation nd a good memory. The most distinct impression derived from this short and casual visit was that the cemetery was easily capable of being made as beautiful and attractive as any 'city of the dead' of its dimensions anywhere. It is too level for striking and picturesque views, certainly but its gently undulating surface, its universal turf, and its numerous and vigorous growths of cedar and other evergreens would, if neatly cleaned up and kept well ordered, make as pretty a rural scene as would be wished for a morning's stroll or a sunset musing." -4- -f- This cemetery, it should be noted, is the one described by Holloway in 1876, as the city cemetery, on Kentucky avenue, between West street and the river. He says of it: "The site is a favorable one, and the added ornaments in the matter of shade trees, shrubbery, drives, are extensive; but since the opening of Crown Hill cemetery, the City cemetery has fallen iBto comparative disuse." The tract known as Green Lawn was the third addition to the City cemetery. The writer of the scrap book clipping proceeds to give the following history of Indianapolis cemeteries.

"The 'old the original or nucleus of the present cemetery, was laid out or selected, rather, in the summer of' 1821. It was a sickly season, that second summer of the city's settlement, and the first of its 'laying out' by Surveyor Ralston, but three persons of, as many hundred escaped the chills and fever and the provision of a resting place for those who might be called away was a natural and obvious suggestion of the situation. James Blake, Matthias Nowland, father of our local historian, John B. Nowland, and Danied Shaffer selected the site on the river bank opposite Governor's island, a low, heavily timbered, weed-covered sandbar, cut off from the east bank by a narrow, shallow 'chute' all washed away years ago. It has since been known as the 'colored The bluff bank has been much cut under and cut away by freshets, and probably a third of the original area has gone down the river, in some cases' leav NEW AIR MAIL ROUTE.

Indiana is greatly interested in the pending decision of the Post Office Department to fix the route of the new air mail line from St. Louis to New York. The planes, which will insure delivery at the metropolis in the morning of letters mailed at St. Louis the previous day, will either fly over the T. A.

T. route through Indianapolis and Columbus or follow a course through Louisville and Cincinnati. Postal officials will hold a formal hearing early in August to consider the arguments for the routes. Business men in the cities affected are naturally endeavoring to muster all available evidence to influence the decision. The mail route will form an important addition to the steadily growing aerial ljnks provided for mail, express and passenger traffic.

Indianapolis business men, with the co-operation of the Chamber of Commerce and the active assistance of Representative Ludlow, are confident the postal officials will recognize the advantages of charting the route through the Hoosier capital.

By foresight I mean dependable scientific forecasting. By fortune telling I mean unreliable popular prediction.

Old Auguste Comte, the French philosopher, expressed the spirit and purpose of modern science in his famous phrase "Voir; Prevoir; Pour-voir." Freely translated this phrase means, "See to foresee; foresee in order to provide." Prediction is thus one of the major tasks of modern science, but the predictions of science, when they are soundly scientific, differ widely from the predictions either of the popular mind or of the professional soothsayer. The predictions of science are bilt one phase of the three-fold business of science. 1. Science must, If it is true to itself, begin by assembling and assaying all of the facts about the problem under consideration; clear observation must assemble the facts and controlled experimentation must test the facts. 2.

LONDON Down in Sussex, in an garden such as oniy lovely England can produce, one of sits daily, looking out across a sweet valley at a high ridge and speculating about what lies on the-othtv side of thi3 barrier whlcn meets his fleece dotted sky. He has been doing this for years, and th? funny part of it is that he leally doesn't want to know what lies beyond. The reason for this involves a charming bit of philosophy. But let me introduce you to my philosopher.

You know his works and you will like the man. Meet the great Brangwyn, Frank Br ngwyn, royal academician, world iamous artist a man so much honored by foreign governments that if he wore all his decorations at once he would look like John Phiiip Sousa in full band-dress.

A ceremony of some significance to nations cerely endeavoring to promote world peace will be held at the White House next Wednesday, when President Hodver will formally proclaim the multilateral treaty for the renunciation of war, more commonly known as the Kellogg pact. A luncheon will be attended by diplomatic representatives of the signatory and adhering nations. A proclamation is necessary before a treaty becomes effective for the United States, and the attention given this ceremony is especially desirable in emphasizing the new effort to reduce the probability of war.

The date for the proclamation of the pact was determined by the action of Japan, which was the last of the fifteen original signatory nations to ratify. Tokio reported the necessary governmental indorsement on June 27 and the instrument was immediately placed in the mails for the United States. The interval of four weeks should be ample for the document to reach Washington. The Kellogg treaty provides that it shall become effective when the last of the ratifications of signatory governments has been deposited at the American capital. President Hoover's act will mark the beginning of a new epoch in world history.

Only time and world conditions can measure the influence of this treaty on the conduct of the nations. Its strength lies in the weight of public opinion. That factor should increase in importance with the passing of time and the development ot peace programs being fostered by most of the leading nations. Human nature is still unchanged, but wanton disregard for the treaty enn he punished by economic pressure from Europe's aggrieved countries. No nation should, risk tbe unl- ANSWERS TO MOTHERS.

God could not he everywhere; therefore He made mothers. Jewish Proverb. "Dear Doctor: Yesterday my littlts girl of nine came home from school crying bitterly, because one of her pla mates told the other children that her mother said if I would keep my child clean she would not have her skin trouble. How can I explain to this mother the truth about this and ask her to please not make this remark again? "My little girl's skin ever the entire surface of her body (except her hands, neck and face) is very rough. It has the appearance of goose flesh.

Last year the school nurse thought the child had a skin disease and took her to a clinic at the City hospital, and the skin specialist there said the condition as he knew it was not contagious. He said he had known it to run through whole families. This is true in our case, for both my sisters and I had' it. The skin is rougher in cold wefther than in warm, and never itches. "I have tried massaging the child skin with cocoa butter, have changed soap, and used olive oil, but none seem to help very much.

I have another child of 4 years and in the last few months his skin has started to show traces of this roughness. "MRS. The condition you describe, Mrs. is undoubtedly that which is known as ichthyosis, or fish skin disease. It is believed to be hereditary, and so is transmitted by the germ plasm.

The condition is not looked upon as a disease, but rather, as a maldevelnpment of the skin, causing a disturbance of the oil and sweat glands. Thr are not a few who suffer New Albany Tribune. Dan W. Simms, a prominent attorney of Lafayette, said at the state bar meeting, in speaking of the law's, or delays: "Generally, we are doing pretty well, considering the fact that the law is not an exact science." Sir Edward Coke, the great English lawyer, once said of the law: "It is the perfection of reason." It is, too that is, real law. This, of course, does not apply to the "latest guess" of some cowboy judge or justice of the peace, who passes on questions of law frequently with great dignity and pomp but with little knowledge.

The articles in The Indianapolis Star recently, on "The Law's Delays," are waking things up, both among members of the bar and the people. The Star's articles show that average cases that are disposed of take just about a year, but where crookecl lawyers for crooked clients play fnr real delay, it takes several yeara to reach a decision.
