JJemanas ior money lor a wide assortment of purposes """"w I most of them worthy, of f if course are at flood tide. The pressure from the public Is al most entirely for added ex penditures. There aren't many people lobbying, making com mittee appearances, or writing I le,ters against spending ine FYl " I public urging upon the legis lature is all the other way. If there is public sentiment for economy, it is not articulate. The legislature Is dominant- i.l -,. kiir.tn anrl thwireticallv conservative. but It cannot withstand the demand for in creased appropriations. This is partially due to the Justification of much of this demand. Costs of operating government services have mounted steadily. Needs for many things, such as the welfare institutions, have piled up in recent years and demand recognition. Public salary schedules have not kept up with the rise In the cost of living, and there is widespread demand for correction. There are areas, to be sure, where resistance to the demand for money is justified, but unless there is more public sup port for such resistance, it is not likely to de velop to any great extent. Inconsistent REALISTIC legislators know that if the pub lic is so hell-bent for more spending, it's the legislature's Job to provide the revenues. n,,t hm 4 v,a nuhlfp turns Inconsistent: it wants the money spent, but it doesn't want to pay the bill. Virtually everybody we talked to in alem says that the sales tax is the only fundamental solution, but there is doubt that it would sur vive a test in a popular election. But the sales tax, even though accepted as a potential answer to the big question, is not im mediately helpful. In the current job of bal ancing appropriations and revenues, the sales tax cannot be added to the revenue side as yet. It hat to await a referendum vote. So the legis lature must first find other sources, or resort, to a atate tax on over-burdened real property. The problem had not been solved when we sat in as a spectator for a little while yesterday at a meeting of the house assessment and taxation committee. One cannot escape the realization that there is too much irresponsibility in the public's atti tude toward the state's fiscal problems. Too many people seem unwilling to recognize the fact that money to be spent is money that must be raised by taxation; that those who support appropriations must support revenue measures. The legislature is a representative body, respon sive to public sentiment; if we want responsible fiscal legislation from our lawmakers, we must accept our responsibilities as citizens. News Behind The News By PAUL MALLON WASHINGTON, March 6 General Marshall is flying to Moscow in a blur of private official lament about the economic breakup in Britain. When the president held his prelimin ary conference with the republican and demo cratic leaders, not a person present would talk afterward. The reporters suspected the group was too scared to reveal anything as they usually do. Yet surprisingly enough, the British them selves have been the loudest of lamenters over their own condition. The public appeal of Bevin to turn the Greek situation over to us was plainly meant to be an alarmist gesture. His failing power and prestige in Turkey, the situa tion in the Dardanelles, which approach .the Suez, Egypt and the Orient, made it rather plain to everyone here that the Bevin appeal was really much broader than merely the Greek situation. It was a plea for American assump tion ot leadership to save the collapsing British empire and the British position throughout Europe, east of the Rhine. Officials susceptible to calamities immediately drew visions of the British collapse permitting Russia to envelop Europe and Asia. Want Financial Backing THE implications of this possibly overdrawn situation were not apparent to the public. Actually the British have only about 8000 troops in Greece. Their cost is not considerable, and even a socialist failure in Britain might finance it. But the Greeks arc seeking a $230,000,000 loan and what the British really want from us is financial backing for the British political position in Greece. Simultaneously Mr. Hoover has returned from Europe proclaiming the need of Germany for $473,000,000 for food. Now our original $3,750,000,000 loan to Brit ain was supposed to pull them through all fi nancial hazards until 1948. By the end ot next year they figured their Imports would be suf ficient to sustain their economy. But prices have risen in the United States since the loan was made, and the British complain (I have not figured it out myself) that they have been able to obtain only half as much food, grain and materials here for their money. Certainly their socialism has not only failed to produce a larger volume of exports, but cannot even produce enough coal to sustain itself. The figures they offer are these: If they could get 500 million pounds from exports. 200 mil lion from their investments, and 100 million from shipping profits, they would have a bal ance of 800 millions on the credit side. As a result of high prices here and production de ficiencies they are 350 million pounds short. This is the pivotal point of the matter. It is a financial crux, not one of diplomacy. This distinction is not generally understood, at least not in Washington. The British have made an Anglo-French alliance, upon which they count for French support, although the French gov ernment is too worried with communism now . itself to be of much help. There is every prospect that we may come to the alliance method of bolstering our sup port. We may have a French-American alliance, especially if the Moscow conference runs the expected course, without sufficient results to guarantee our aims and security. There may be other alliances. Bail 'Em Out YET fundamentally the British diplomatic policy is in accord with the policy of the United States, and there has been no break down in her desire to pursue such a policy with us. I have heard Bevin has called General Marshall on the telephone several times a day recently. Furthermore we are sending a good man in Lewis Douglas as ambassador to Lon don. He was the personal choice, I understand, ( of Dean Acheson, the assistant state secretary. Marshall and Truman accepted the recommen dation of this well known anti-new dealer with out objection. So internal relations are certainly developing cordially and satisfactorily. Thus this country ia being faced again with the plea to bail Europe out. The proposition which the British are making primarily requires our money, not any extra diplomatic skill or backing, except such as would ensue from loans and advances, (indeed the British" have seemed to some authorities to be leading up to another advance for themselves). We face a dilemma of finance, not unlike the one after the last war. My information suggests the Truman adminis tration will certainly meet each case as it arises, however, and not create a lump sum grab bag. Such a condition is naturally building up strong inner sentiment here for a coalition gov ernment in Britain. Attlee could not wait until the war was over to get Churchill out. The cur rent prime minister has never had an impres sive following in this country" He has tried his socialism fully and cannot get enough produc tion to sustain the economy (personally I be lieve it is impossible to get production out of socialism simply because it destroys all private initiative). While the conservative party has no great youthful leaders who have much popu ' lar following either, a coalition would at least make the British crisis look like a crisis, and not merely another socialist attempt to borrow more from capitalism directly or indirectly through Greece. SIDE GLANCES Boston Asks School Probe . BOSTON, March 6 (JPh Aroused state legislators and Governor Robert F. Bradford moved swiftly today to put a curb on the release of sex of fenders as a grand jury con vened in nearby Cambridge to investigate the lust-slaying of 11-year-old Jacqueline Maxwell. -The house of representatives approved orders calling for es tablishment of special commit tees to probe the release from a state training school of Robert L. Coombes, 17, charged with murder of the child, and to study the administration of all such institutions in the state. . The governor called for "bet ter screening and; adequate seg regation of youthful six psycho paths." He said there should be "provisions for segregation for life, if necessary, or until it is demonstrated the person is cured." Young Coombes, a sex offend er of previous record, was re leased from Shirley school only three weeks ago over objection of his parents. School trustees explained they were obliged to set him free after he met certain conditions under the state's pres ent correctional setup. The Maxwell girl was slain in a field near her home Sunday night Classified Ads Bring Results. Movie Strike Leader Back Home. LOS ANGELES, March 6 UP) Herbert K.

The World Today Br DaVOTT MACKENZIE AP Foreign Affairs Anelyit Secretary of State Marshall now en route to Moscow has expressed doubt that the foreixn ministers of France, Britain, Russia and America can write a German treaty at their forth coming conference in the Soviet capital, because the big four still are in disagreement on funda mentals. That's a disquieting (though not surprising) preview, because the rehabilitation of chaotic Eu rope hangs on the early con clusion of a constructive German treaty. We can go further and say that peace itself is largely dependent on how quickly and how well the big four deal with the now broken nation which but a brief time ago was the dominant power of continental Europe economically and mili tarily. Of course we should recog nize that, as General Marshall says, the negotiations will be "extremely difficult." While the world is tensely anxious for the conclusion of a German pact, it doen't wish to see a treaty which is the product of impetuosity. We want one which will put Germany on her feet econom ically while rendering her im potent to wage war which will establish a democratic govern ment that will preclude the rise of nazism and Prussianism again. However, there Is a point at which tactics of delay become deliberate obstruction. Anxiety over the Moscow conference re volves about Jthis truth. There fore we are justified in believ ing that the conference will pro duce a tabling of the cards to see who wants what to see if there is anyone who doesn't want a quick settlement of Eu rope's crisis and a return of peace and plenty. Undue obstruction by any power or powers at that con ference would demonstrate a de sire for continued disorganiza tion. It would be a tacit admis sion that the obstructionists ex pected to profit in some way from the chaos. Knotty differences of opinion naturally must be expected and there will have to be compro mises, but it won't be difficult to differentiate between honest objections and deliberate ob struction. So we may at least expect the Moscow conference to disclose how the land lies. It will tell whether there is a real desire for a constructive peace shorn of any selfish Interests.

March 6 (II Nathan Leopold, serving a life sentence and a 99-yenr sentence in Stateville prison for the kid-nap-slaying of young Bobby Franks in 1924. will not be eligi ble for parole for at lenst 10 years, Illinois parole officials nave advised State's Attorney William J. Tuohy. Tuohy said he sought the pa role board's opinion in view of reports that Leopold would seek parole on the ground that he submitted to a malaria control experiment in prison during the war. Parole officials said some convicts in the tests would be given preferred parole consid eration or possible executive clemency. However, they said Leopold, convicted with the late Richard Locb in the "thrill slaying" of the 14-ycar-old Franks boy, must serve a minimum of 33 years of. the 99-year kidnaping sentence before his application for parole can be considered.

CRATER LAKE By Viola M, Chartraw In the heart ot the high Cas cades, Resting in quiet reptise, Stepped In eternal glory, Tho light or Divinity glows. Serene, peaceful, and alill, Lies a hike of mystic hue, , Unfolding its beauty and color In ever changing blue, Over its silent depths The soaring eagles fly Guarding majestic peaks That tower to the sky, At, Mystery Lake! Thy wonders gleam lit rippling waters deep; A jewel as a heavenly gift In purple shades asleep. Ethereal moods of silver and grey Reflect in this mirrored mist Of earth's lonely tears. The sunshine of ages has kissed. Cold in tho white blasts of win ter Blown from the mountain rrest; Embraced by myriad cliffs to view. Crowned in a hollow breast. Moonlight drapes the gaping walls In veils of shimmering spray While evening shadows hover near And twilight bids farewell to day. Calm in the soft breath of sum mer, Cradled In a gorgeous bed; Crystal drops of magic splendor From a Crater centuries dead. When autumn comes and spreads Her wings f yellow and brown Upon the leafy treos, and casts A lingering, crimson frown On this pool of slumbering blue In Its rugged, rorky nest. The colors blend in grandeur Then steal away to rest. No artist's brush can e'er por tray ,A picture quite so rare As nature's hand hnth fashioned And left eo proudly there.
