HOOVER, Secretary of Commerce The relation of trade associations and l^ade insti tutes to the anti-trust laws has been discussed at great length in the administration. Of the many thousands of such organizations there is a -small minority who have degenerated into ways that make' for restraint of trade. All are agreed that the purposes and actions of the vast majority of national associations are a con structive contribution to public welfare. Many of them collect information as to produc tion, stocks of raw and other material, percentage of industry in active operation, total orders in hand—all ®f which when available to the public contribute both to stability ^and increasing efficiency of industry and to protection of both the smaller manufacturer and the consumer. A smaller number of such associations have been engaged in the col lection of data on the prices for the exclusive use of their members. Some of these associations have been charged with delimiting areas of com modity distribution among their members and other misuse of informa tion. Whether these latter practices constitute a violation of the anti trust laws must be determined by the courts, and this the attorney general is proceeding to find out. All this raises anew the question of the authority of the federal trade commission. The original conception of the commission was that it should, among other things, advise business men what constituted a violation of the restraint of trade laws, but these powers were struck out in the course of actual legislation. It seems to me that seven years* experience with the commission should now enable a reconsideration of its powers w^ith a view to giving it a more constructive function, subject, say, to review by the attorney gen eral, by which it could remove the uncertainties from the minds of business men as to the line between the field of o)-operation and promotion of 'pro duction and trade and the field of practices against public interest. There is nothing so destructive of business as is uncertaintv. A Question That's Intrigued Savants of All Times and All Places By MRS. F. X. PHINNELL, Cambridge, Mass. A question that has iiitri^aed savants of all times and places is “Do fat women make the best wives, and if so, why ?” A true answer to that would be of inestimable importance. It would rob matrimony of its gamble, guarantee happiness to prospective benedicts, and shatter the silly modem prejudice against obesity. Undoubtedly the ansrwer is alfirmative. Since tlie dawn of history, as sho\^n by the clay tablets liitely ex cavated at Xij>]nir, the well rounded woman has been noteworthy for affec tion, good nati#e, disinclination to worry, and taste and ability in prepar ing^ foovl. She ensv-dfoing, restful. She doesn’t nag and fret like her thin sist'^i'j. In p. A\ord, she is comfortable. , Piedinoiit Pressing dull It. G. HARDIN, Maiuger Brevai^, N- G.

Value of Public Playgrounds to Young Can Hardly Be Overestimated By GEORGE G. LEE, San Francisco The value of public playgrounds caif hardly be overestimated and the movement to increase the number of reltreational centers for children is spreading throughout the country. There are now more than 4,000 play grounds and recreational centers in the coimtry, and they are helping boys and girls to become athletic. The effect they have in keeping boys out of trouble with the police is one of the most important features of the established playgrounds. The chief of police of San Francisco believes that the establishmeht of neighborhood recreation centers is a constructive measure toward sup pressing the crime wave, for it has been found that schoolboys have been involved in many crimes recently. He has asked that the playground sys tem be extended on the ground that without a proper place to play boys with leisure time on their hands are likely to get into trouble. There are likewise fewer street accidents during the season when the playgroimds are used. The playground directors have discovered t^t summer activities on the playgrounds have practically eliminated alP swearing, cheating and stealing among the children. They note witJi sat isfaction that the spirit of fair play has put the playground bully where he belongs and teach the more timid self-reliance. It is invariably the case with children who use the playgrounds that they gain in weight and in appetite. An Arr used Public Opinion the Best I'reventive of Forest Fires By ROGER W. TOLL, Colorado Mountain Club Tli< ca:: paign against forest fires is essentially one of publicity and educati(»u. \v hen all of the people recognize the needless destruction of our natural resources by preventable forest fire^ every individual will ex- erci'io the care necessary to prevent such fires. To dieck and extinguish a forest fire, once it has a head start, is a difficult matter, but to prevent the start of such a fire is extremely simple. During the past five years, tlie campers in the United States have been responsible for more than 20,000 forest fires. Greater care in completely extinguishing camp fires and less carelessness with cigars, cigarettes and matches, will prevent the tremendous loss due to these causes. An aroused public opinion is a most efficient remedy and will greatly decrease the necessity for the detection and punishment of the individuals who may contiime to endanger the safety of our public welfare and our valuable heritage of timber resources.
