Among some of the things said, mostly concerning the budget, are the following. Tlie Port Huron Times-Herald admits that It Is not easy to reduce. Concerning the legislative wrestle with the state budget it further remarks: "To retrench in that business Is no less serious than to retrench in any other Industry which is spending a year. And In times of general business depression the demands upon government are almost certain to increase rather than diminish. It might seem to be an easy enough matter for the legislators to refrain from making appropriations for certain of those activities.
But the problem is not as simple as that, as the Michigan legislature which has Just now adjourned has found out. When the state has once undertaken certain work and certain activities they may not be given up or discontinued suddenly without a good deal of disturbance to the business and social organizations of the commonwealth." The Grand Rapids Press calls the roll of legislative action, good, bad. and indifferent.

Because the new traffic ordinance has been passed docs not mean that Lansing is right on the verge ol realizing ull it has sought in the way of traffic perfection. The new ordinance does not provide a traffic revolution.
It essentially provides a way to begin to build. The building that lies ahead Is the essential thing. It gives those who have a vision of better conditions a chance. The new ordinance has been called a model ordinance. That need not be taken to mean that It Is absolute perfection.
The term means that the new ordinance is compounded out of the up-to-date experience of our leading cities, and, then, by the burning of the midnight oil, and hard work, adaptation of the model to Lansing has been made. One great consideration that appears is that the new ordinance provides a way In which all the trading area about Lansing can be brought Into a considerable degree of uniformity as to traffic regulation. The new ordinance provides a basis lor traffic regulation in towns and cities within a circle of perhaps 100 miles of Lansing. Let us Invite our sister towns and cities to a basis of uniformity.

It comes, following a similar conference by the President, with heads of the war department.
At that conference the matter of dropping 53 useless army posts and forts was inaugurated. Evidently President Hoover intends to seek a saving in every department of government.

That it will exact a careful looking to all the considerations involved with a view to having what is done, carefully done, seems likely.

Followers of Islam, of Buddha, of Israel and of Jesus declared In turn, and with sincere conviction, that their particular doctrines were or would become the ultimate beliefs of the world at large.

One nt the defects of radio is that the listener is in no very effective position to talk back. If the public might react to radio programs more readily than they do, such circ*mstances would doubtless be of salutary effect. MaJ. Cen. Charles McK.
Saltzman, chairman of the federal radio commission, has recently been declaring that one of the most vexatious problems before the board concerns the character of programs. What he has to say reveals that the public does talk back to some degree. The radio commission, he states, gets a large volume of complaint. The burden of it seems to be that the advertising put out by a certain station, or stations, as named in the complaining letter. Is becoming The letter usually ends with "Why doesn't the federal radio commission do something about it?" General Salzman goes on to say that, after listening to some of the stations complained of, he finds awakened within him a strong bond of sympathy with the complainant.
