PROHIBITION PARTYMAYBE ACTIVE AGAIN Two Major Parties Work Into Complicated Situation on 18th Amendment By Thomas G. Ford (Unit d Press Staff Correspondent)! Albany, N. Y., June 29 —(UP)—( Revival of the Prohibition Party, which has been missing from the political lists for many years is seen as a possibility in the fall election because of the complicated position into which the two major parties in New York State have worked themselves on the 18th amendment. If such a revival does come about. it appears the Prohibitionists will find the core of their strength in the dry faction of the Republican party. The Democratic state organization is on record as favoring an amendment to the Volstead Act to permit the sale of light wines and beer. But the Prohibition issue has split the Republicans into factions nf almost equal strength. The wet •amp is headed by Fottner United States Senator James W. Wadsworth, who insists that a dry cand’date cannot hope to win. William H. Hill of Binghamton,, known as "the original Hoover leader,” is equally emphatic in declaring that an anti-Prohibitioi candidate will be'defeated. He has mustered the 10 counties along the Pennsylvania border, a block that is known as ‘the Southern tier," and contends that such powerful backing will make it impossible for the wets to nominate a candidate. Hill, goes even further. He intimates that the dry Republicans may nominate an independent candidate if the Wadsworth faction is victor-
ions. Political experts point out that for revival of the Prohibition party. The Prohibition issue is proving less distrubing to the democrat who ave Gov. Franklin D. Roosevelt ready to run for re-election. There have been frequent intimations that Roosevelt personally is a dry. Recently Il was reported that the dry faction was in possession of a letter written by Mrs. Roosevelt in which she was said to have stated that her husband favored Prohibition. She denied ever having written such a letter or making any such statement to that effect.
Efforts have been made recently 'o have Roosevelt discuss his views fully. It is generally believed that Wadsworth will support the candidacy of George R. Fearon, state, senator from Onondaga, but there also are rumors that the former United States Senator may attempt to obtain the nomination himself. NEW CARDINALS APPOINTED (CONTINUED at 10 a.m. with the Pope, clad in white, ascending the ceremonial throne in the hall of the cons'story. The cardinals sat around the room on gilden chairs, " and dressed in rich crimson roses of their rank. High prelates of the church, officers of the papal soldiery in full dress, and lay dignitaries of the papal court stood about the room. After Pope Pius had prayed /
silently for a moment, all except! [the members of the college were] . ordered fr.otn the room, the door I locked, and all communication be-! I tween the hall of the consistory ’ I and the outside world was dfecon-1 nected. The doors were not opened again : until papal messengers were dis- ■ patched to each of the five newly appointed cardinals to serve forrn- : al notification of their elevation. After the messengers were dis- . pitched, the Pope retired to his 1 apartments in the Vatican. OLNEY COLLEGE STUDENTS LIVE SIMPLE LIVES Small Ohio Quaker School Untouched by Latest Educational Fads Barnesville, 0., June 30. —(U.R)— Few American schools have undergone as few changes in student activity or clung to tradition so tenaciously as Olney college, a small Quaker institution located here. Ever since the school’s founding in 1876, Olney students have plod- ■ ded along the same course of rec--1 rcational and social enjoyments as 1 their predecessors, disdaining new ! movements n collegiate activity. A co-educational school, Olney 1 has yet to schedule Its first prom ! or arrange its first inter-colleglate r athletic schedule since students 1 here neither dance nor accept • sports on an equal rating with their curriculum. ’ Smoking is unknown among male students just as cosmetics are r alien to the co-eds. Jazz music is ? spurned; petting parties unheard ’ qf and drinking entirely beyond
the realm of Olney comprehension. Athletics are carried on out only ;ti a restricted fornj. Contests beween classes provide the “big morn nts" on the sportive calendar. But despite the dearth of activity which noimally attends American college life, Olney students strike the appearance of baing more contented. Residing as one large family, students and faculty mingle with an affection that is rare beyond the family hearth. With the exception of Urbana college, Urbana, 0., which has less ‘.han 50 students, Olney probably is th; smallest college in the counry. An enrollment of 65 produced 8 graduates in this year’s senior ■lass. The student body, however, .is as representative as could be found anywhere, virtually, every state In th? union being represented. — — i—»■ ■■■ 1 i»' ■o 1 "* —— ■— l ■ 1 -■ The Tipping Evil Edmonton, England — (UP) — Grave diggeis who complained ‘hat h y were not allowed to participate :t lowering coffins and were thus leprived of, gratuities given by relatives are to be avoided to help low?r coffins with the stipulation that any of them who accept a gratuity shall be liable to ipstant dismissal. , b There’s Gratitude Southend, England, —(UP) After a park keeper had rescued a child rom a lak the child's parents sued he corpo jtion for damage done to the child's clothes when it was pulled out of the water.
LIGHTNING TEST CREWS IN FIELD TO GATHER DATA Artificial Bolts to be Manufactured When Elements Fail to Produce Schenectady, N. Y., June 30. —(U.R) —While thousands of summer tourists dodge thunder storms this summer two parties of outing enthusiasts in the middle west will ■be watching and waiting for them. In fact when nature does not provide kghtning, they will make bolts themselves and dart them at objects to study their effects. One of these groups already is “on location” in Michigan at a spot where they believe lightning I is most likely to strike. They will cover a 50-mile stretch of a high 1 voltage feed wire. Another party | soon will be out on a similar mis-' sion between Philo and Canton, 0.,| on another feed wire where lightning seems to have an affinity for playing. The two groups have been sent out from the lightning research department of General Electric at Pittsfield, Masi. E. J. Wade, who worked with Dr. W. D. Coolidge, “the modern Thor” who first created artificial lightning, heads the Michigan group, and H. L. Rordefi, a student in the high voltage lab--01 atory. is in temporary charge of the Ohio party. Each of the parties is equipped with an impulse generator which will produce from 1,000,090 to 1,500,000 volts in one flash of lightning. All winter Gong these bolts were darted at miniature villages ’ and their actions recorded on a delicate instrument with the high
sounding name of cathode ray oscillograph. The oscillograph is the nuans by which a permanent record is made op photographic film of the -passage of lightning' bolts, cither real or man made. Oscillographs have been mounted on trucks and may be rushed to the ' scene of a gathering storm in a wink. , The reason for these experiments, it is explained, is to study the relative damage by lightning to property protected by lightning arresters, and property which is ‘ not, and also to develop the old fashioned lightning rod into a sure protection, if possible, from the ‘ bolts from the skies. _ , o
