THOSE DOGS Conan Doyle says are In heaven probably are Skye terriers. A BOY "who, at 19, has served in three prisons, is qualifying for a life-time job. IT BEGINS to look as if the veterans who kept their insurance will collect be J ''re they get their bonus. IF THOoE municipal automobiles are locked up over the primary some people would be interested in knowing who carries the garage key. A SIDELIGHT on President Harding's leadership is the fact bets are being placed in Washington on whether he will veto the bonus bill if it ever reaches him. ATTORXEV • ENERAL Daugherty also may have to ask for the expulsion of Congressman Johnston, if the latter keeps on talking abou\ the Department of Justice. IF AUGUST PROBST. the young Swiss butler, had fallen in love with an ordinary American girl and not a member of “society,” be probably would not have been ordered deported. MR. BEVERIDGE Is delightfully inconsistent at times. He enumerates a long list of evils from which the country is suffering and then tells the folk he is going to support President Hording. AT THE start of the campaign President Harding announced he would maintain a hands-off policy in the Indiana primary contest, yet we are assured by Senator New's favorite newspaper that the Senator 'has the hearty indorsement both of the President and his fellowworkers." Senator New and the F iiture Senator New, in an address to the Republican voters of Gary, claimed credit for having been part of an Administration that is saving $4,000,000 a day in taxes. The Senator’s campaign for renomination has beefi conducted in retrospect; he has never been able—and apparently was not so mind ad —to divorce himself from any of the unpopular moves of the Harding Administration and has elected to stand or fall as an integral part of the present National Government. No one can question his sincerity in calling the voters’ attention to the fact that he is part and parcel of the Washington Administration and by the same token he and his supporters have little reason to complain when his political opponents seize upon some measures that did not merit unmitigated public approval; for instance, the Senate vote seating Newberry, and manufacture sizable campaign ammunition from it. It strikes us, however, that what the voters should be more interested in Is not how "regular” a candidate has been, but how he is going to act in the future, what are his ideas upon this or that problem and what plans has he for restoring business and making living conditions easier in this country. One of the men nominated next Tuesday, be he either Democrat or Republican, will remain in the United States Senate for the next si’ years and will have an opportunity to assist in form bating and adopting iaws that will personally affect all of us. This being true, it would seem that a lot of people would be more interested in hearing Senator New’s views upon the half billion deficit the Government will face next year and his idea of just how much it is going to cost us to wipe it out, rather than to hear him congratulate himself for having supported all Republican measures since he took his scat in the Senate. Campaign promises always are vague and ambiguous, but the public is usually an apt listener when a leader puts forth a sound, constructive thought in an honest, sincere-manner.
The Negro Problem The growing tendency of negroes to seek homes in the white residen tial sections, despite the advice of their sensible leaders, has led a determined group of north side women to voice a protest against conditions in Indianapolis. At the very time these women were meeting it was necessary to station police about Shortridge High School to protect girl students from insults of 'egroes and depraved whites, while on the inside of the building one of the indefensible anomalies of our educational system was on exhibition—the co-mingling of blacks and whites in the classrooms. “The negro may have the legal right to buy property and live in your neighborhood, but he has not the moral right to do so, when he knowingly takes away half of your property value," was the message given to this little group of women by one of their own number. “Such actions as those of the negro moving in among whites not only incite race prejudice more than anything else, but damage the community as a whole, and the best Interests oi uoth whites and blacks demand that such practices cease," was another remark that will be concurred in by members of both races who have the courage of their convictions. The negro is among us and the race should be encouraged to progress, but that path should never lead to social mingling. Miscegenation has no advocate in decent circles. Sane leaders, white and black, realize that each race must work out its separate destiny with a mutuality of interests but without amalgamation. The misguided ambitions of some members of the colored race to overturn the relative status of racial divisions can be traced in many instances to the pamperings and nalaveriags of the politicians who are especially active at. this stage of a campaign. And it is true, as these women were tcid, that the politician of “neither party cares for anything except the negro’s ballot on election day." The sooner the negroes learn that their so-called political leaders cannot lead them into the fields of racial equality, save as a grudging politician bestows a beneficence, and listen to the good advice of their foresighted spokesmen, the better for the future. Abolishing the Dope Peddler The report that there are one million drug addicts in the United States is a startling disclosure, in lieu of the fact that dope peddling ia held as a distinct crime and arrests for this practice are being made daily in the big cities. The clever methods used by the dope merchants to lure the innocent into their coils —as was revealed by the case of the two New York girls from good families —make it difficult for the police to completely wipe out this situation. The drug fiend is not always to blame for his false appetite. Many poor creatures have come under the power of this destructive drug through the use of doped medicine given them by physicians to alleviate pain during illness. Neither is the physician altogether to blame, as a small amount of drug is permissible in medicine and if the patient is an extreme sufferer he is tempted to increase the dose. The strange thing is that once a slave to dope it Is impossible to give up the habit without pangs of suffering. True, there are sanitariums where drug fiends may go to be cured, but this treatment is not always convenient for the sufferer, and there is a question as to whether or not victims are as good physically as before. From the ring of dope fiends come some of the worst outlaws with which authorities have to deal. It is unnatural for human beings to be criminals. Crimes can almost always be traced to the use of drugs, intoxicating liquor or insanity Drastic methods should be used to handle the sailors who bring the drug Into New York and San Francisco on steamers, and frontier smugglers who work through Canada. ** the onlv —nr to wlp out this situation Is to begin at itr ecu: jM|

Variometer Aids Set —DAILY RADIO FEATURES
BY R. L. DUNCAN, Director, Radio Institute of America, Here Is a way of Increasing the power of a crystal detector set without using a vacuum tube. Substitute a variometer in the aerial circuit for the loose coupler. Many amateurs have done this and have received telephone and spark signals from a (Usance twice as great os before. The variometer may be constructed as previously explained or may be purchased for about $4.50. A variable condenser may be connected in the aerial circuit. This condenser should be of twenty-three plates or .0005 microfarads capacity. Always bear in mind that you probably will have to try several pieces of galena before obtaining one that Is suitable for radio wave detection In using a crystal detector of that metal, tection. Head phenes shunted by a small fixed condenser should be of 2,000 to 3,000 ohms resistance. Using an aerial 100 feet long! and purchasing all the equipment needed for a set of this kind, the expense should not be more than $22. Since all these parts can be used in making other sets, i' would be good experience for (be amateur who wants to get as much fun out of radio as possible to construct or assemble a receiving set along these lines. Study of Static Will Mark Summer Radio fans may expect to hear of radical progress in the development of the science this summer. That 's the time when a lull will come in the use of receiving and broadcasting. The heat will keep the amateurs and novices outside, while atmospheric interference will make it hard for transmission and reception. But it is Just this time for which radio engineers are waiting. “STATIC" PROBLEM. One of their greatest problems i* the elimination of static. That will be at its peak during the warm days. For this reason Government and other radio experts are preparing to make all sorts of experiments with radio apparatus in order to reduce as far as possible this form of Interference. Tests have been made in tropical countries, but the engineers say the conclusions formed at these tests may not apply In the temperate zones in summer. Dr. Louis Cohen, consulting engineer of the United States signal Corps and chief of the Army radio research, has been making a special study of radio disturbances. He has made several experiments at Army stations in Texas, where he found much static interference on which to base his studies. STUDIES CONTINUED. During the warm days in the northern part of the country. Dr. Cohen will continue his studies and eipects to perfect a plan by whl 'h atmospheric inte-Terenee can be eliminated. He is said already to have Invented an Instrument which will eliminate “strays," or foreign disturbances. Engineers for private radio mannfacturir.g and broadcasting firms also report activity In the study of static elimination. They are only awaiting the dog days, when static will be so troublesome ns to make It almost impossible to receive signals. Then wil; be the ideal time for their experimen's. TIFK CIGARETTE BILL S3O.

Alabama to Install New High* Power Sending Station BIRMINGHAM, Ala, April 28 Alabama will have two high-powered radio broadcasting stations by Jnne 1, one already begun by an electrical company here dealing in the radio cqnlpment and the other at Auburn Polytechnic Institute. These two stations, of equal sending capacity with Pittsburgh, will put the State firmly on the map In radio leadership. Interest in the development of radio Is evidenced by the fact that the equipment company here dealing in receiving station outfits has disposed of twenty-five complete stations in two weeks and In the same period has booked seventy-five orders for future delivery. Department stores, hotels, clubs, cases and athletic institutions are leading In the radio race now. Dealers in the station outfits, swamped with more orders than can be filled for severe! weeks, declare that if the present pace 1s maintained every important business house will be serving radio concerts to its customers and clients for amusement during business hours. Further research and scientific development of radio is expected to result here, dealers and students declare, because of the character of the equipment in demand. Light, small outfits are not. wanted, and the simple amateurish outfits remain unsold. Only the high power, efficient stations are wanted. Indieating an eacerness among purchasers to delve effectively into the wonder science. With the completion here of the big broadcasting station, even further advances are anticipated in the already remarkable growth.
