j. An Important Job Important as it is to elect men to the high offices of Governor and United States Senator and to see that the choice of the people is named as a candidate for President, it is quite ps important to see that the forces of evil do not control the office of prosecuting attorney or that it falls into the hands of a weak man. Two years ago The Times first took up the challenge given by Boss Coffin to the election of William 11. Remy. It pointed out that machine politics and crooked polities were lighting Remy and that it was necessary for an aroused public conscience to save this one place from the machine. The people did rally—and history was made. Had Remy been defeated at that time, does any one believe that crooked counciknen would now be attempting to barter resignations for their liberty or that others who had betrayed their trust would be under sentence to prison? The evil forces of his community, and there are evil forces in every big city, are now defeated. They must remain defeated. The little fellows who are used by the higher-ups react to fear very rapidly. They are afraid when they know that there is in the prosecutor’s office a man who is not only eager to enforce laws but has the ability to discover crime. It is rather unfortunate in this situation that the list of candidates for the nomination does not include the grand jury deputy w r hose tireless work, unusual ability and unswerving devotion to the public good aided so much in bringing about the needed indictments. It would seem that the forces in the Republican party which are sincerely desirous of permanent l’edemption would invite William to become a candidate for that nontjBation. A New War Debts Deal Looms The chances are better than fair that in less than two years Europe will seek to settle her $11,500,000,000 war debts to the United States for approximately their present cash value. For two or three years forces have been in motion to bring 1 about a general reparations and war debts liquidation conference, at which something like the following steps would be taken: 1. Fix the total amount Germany is to pay France, Britain and tire rest of the allies by way 'of reparations. 2. Arrange for the sale of German bonds, partly secured by her raih-oads and industries, in the wortd market. 3. Use these bonds, or the proceeds therefrom, first to pay reparations to the allies and, second, to pay the allied debt to the United States on a cash (down basis. Heretofore, France has been the principal European obstacle to this plan. But Sunday, at Carcassonne, Premier Poincare gave it his benediction, at least in principle, so today in Paris, London, Berlin and Washington, statesmen are openly discussing the possibility of anew debts deal. With the exception of France, most of the debtor {nations have negotiated and ratified debt funding agreements with the United States. There is arf agreement with France, but it has not been ratified. But in each instance interest i-ates were reduced until the present cash value of the total is anywhere from 60 to 65 per cent below face value. For instance, Britain has agreed to pay $4,600,000,000 over a period of sixty-two years. But, thanks to the low interest, it is estimated that the present cash value of the debt to the United States is only |53,783,000, 000. Similarly, France’s $4,000,000,000 debt Is worth less than $2,000,000,000. And so on, the total of more than $11,000,000,000 being worth scarcely $5,000,000,000—a figure which the German bonds more than cover. Eight billion dollars often has been suggested as a minimum figure for German reparations, but France hardly would agree to that. The little more than $4,000,000,000 which she would receive as her share barely would pay her debts to the United States and Britain and then there are her devastated regions to think of. ' As for Germany, she probably would complain at £ven the $8,000,000,000. But next year, under the Dawes plan, she must begin paying more than $600,000,000 annually to the allies, and that represents 5 per cent on $12,000,000,000. Thus if she could settle for even ten billions cash, she would be a big winner, especially if by so doing ehe definitely fixed the total amount payable. As things now stand, she is doomed to go on paying this f> per cent on $12,000,000,000 forever, or until the allies relieve the load. But suppose Germany sells eight or ten billion dollars’ worth of bonds to pay the allies who, in turn, pay us; where is the money to come from? The United States principally, of course. Thus the American public would be paying itself the money which' JEurope owes. The deal, if it goes through, would make the United States Germany's principal creditor instead of France, England and the rest. It is therefore not the kind of a plan for us to initiate. But if Gennany end the rest insist on it. and really want it, It might not be bad business, for, after all, we would be swapping a ticklish uncertainty for something at least a bit less uncertain. For nobody believes for a moment that Europe is going to pay us the $22,143,000,000 which the present agreements represent In principal and interest, over g period of sixty-two years. w Modern Keynoting Charles E.

find it difficult to shape the conflicting opinions or the various factions of his party into a tuneful keynote entirely minus a sour note or two. Modern party platforms are constructed skilfully so as to touch on important issues without saying anything, and a keynote speech must ( be built somewhat along the same architectural plan. It is made by the temporary chairman soon after the convention has been opened with a non-partisan, noncommittal prayer and before the platform committee has even met. If it were the practice to make bold and emphatic declarations on live issues in political platforms, an outspoken keynoter might make the job of the platform committee quite embarrassing by starting the convention off on the wrong foot.' He might .view with alarm where the committee intended to point with pride. Or he might lean either wet or dry when the committee had no intention of leaning at all. To illustrate, Nicholas Murray Butler couldn’t be trusted to do the keynoting. Neither could Senator Borah. Either would probably say something about prohibition, whereas the platform will favor law enforcement and let it go at that. The situation demands a loud-speaking orator who can do a clog dance on a crate of eggs without cracking either a smile or a shell. And Mr. Hughes probably doesn’t care to be that kind of a dancer. In the interest of economy," we suggest that the same soft-speaking keynoter be selected to do his stuff at both conventions. In these modern days one keynote will go as well in one convention as in another. We nominate Will Rogers. Ohio and Hoover 1 he fight against Hoover will go on in Ohio notwithstanding that the leader around whom the opposition rallied. Senator WilJis, had a large and loyal following of friends and admirers who were really for Willis. But the master politicians leading his cause were more against Hoover than for Willis, and sought to make use of his popularity to serve their own ends. The issue hasn't changed. The field is combined against Hoover. Powerful politicians and interests' back of them want a candidate who will listen to reason and won’t insist too muph on doing his own thinking. They prefer Dawes, Lowden or some chirk horse as yet hiding behind the scenes. Undoubtedly, Senator Willis himself had an honest ambition to be President and could conceive of a situation where, with Hoover blocked, he might be selected as the nominee. But there is little reason to believe that some of the political backers really were playing the game to nominate him. They hoped to use an Ohio delegation secured in the name of Willis to nominate somebody else if Hoover could be pocketed by a combined favorite son vote. The situation now is more complicated; but the elements are the same. Traffic on the Missouri River It now appears that the Missouri River will soon become again what it was half a century ago—an ! important traffic artery. Government experts Avho have finished a survey J report that they find a large amount of potential business for a barge line, especially on that part of j the river between St. Louis and Kansas City. Brig. Gen. T. Q. Ashburn, head of the Inland Waterways Corporation, says eighty barges and six tugs will be put in service if Congress gives its approval. There was a time when our rivers were our greatest highways. Then the railroads came along and nearly killed river traffic entirely. Now river traffic is reviving again; -not because the railroads are failing, but because the country now is big enough to need both kinds of transportation.

Bohr Explains the A toms
No. 16 -
THE Bohr theory of the atom has been the generally accepted theory in the field of science during the last few years. It reigned almost supreme until about a year ago when the new theory known as Shroedinger wave mechanics began to come to the front. The Bohr theory obtained its name from Dr. Neils Bohr of Copenhagen, who formulated the theory. It.

since its formation. This theory starts with the assumption that atoms are composed of two fundamental entities, the positive electrons and the negative electrons. The simplest atom is that of hydrogen. It has a nucleus composed of one positive electron. One negative electron revolves around this nucleus. The next atom is that of helium. It has a complex nucleus composed of four positive electrons and two negative. There are two negative electrons revolving around the nucleus. Each succeeding atom becomes more complex, but the following simple rule holds: There is always an excess of positive over negative electrons in the nucleus, this excess being three for lithium, four for beryllium and so on up to 92 for uranium. The number of electrons revolving around the nucleus is always equal to the excess of positive over negative electrons in the nucleus. Thus there are three planetary electrons in lithium, four in beryyllium and so on up to 92 in the case of uranium, the heaviest of all the atoms. It will be seen, therefore, that the atoms make a regular sequence from hydrogen, which has one electron revolving around the nucleus, up to uranium, which has 92. The number of electrons revolving around the nucleus is known as the atomic number. Thus the atomic number of hydrogen is one, of helium two, of lithium and three and so on. The planetary electrons revolve in orbits, some of which are circles and some flattened circles or ellipses. Let us see next how Bohr explains the emission of light, X-rays and similar phenomena.

Editor Times: I see in the Indianapolis Star, in the editorials in regard to *he unemployment situation, that the Democrats are not helping themselves or hurting Republican prospects by “exaggerating unemployment.” Now I have lived in Indianapolis for quite a number of years, but I have been out of a job for three months and can not get work anywhere. If a job is advertised for one man, there is all the way from fifty to 100 after it. I think if the right kind of survey was taken in the United States, they would find about 5,000,000 idle men. Another thing I would like to remind the Republican party is that the day that prohibition came in there were 4.500,000 men lost their jobs. Are times any better, I would like to know? I think if they would look over the unemployment situation in Indianapolis they would find 25,000 idle men and families living on half enough to eat. I received a letter from a friend in Baltimore, Md.. the other day and he said 40 per cent of the men were idle there and every State in the Union is just the same. H. DEAVER, A Democrat.

Poetry Saves Dante From Madness
DANTE AND now we are in Florence. A lovely city, fairest in that •which the eye can never see—in the everlasting presence of a thousand geniuses that trod these narrow streets. The great Duomo that dominates the maze was not there in Dante's days, nor Giotto's Campanile, nor Ghiberti's Baptistry doors, which Michelangelo would pronounce worthy to be the gates of heaven. When Dante was born—in the year 1265—it was a smaller city, just rising to wealth as one of the western exits of European trade, and a center of domestic industry. But it was as lively and violent as it would ever be in the later Renaissance; it had numberless political factions and family feuds; the followers of the pope (the Guelphs) fought the followers of the emperor of the moribund Holy Roman Empire (the Ghibellines); the feudal nobles and thq flourishing middle class fought and alternately disfranchised each other; the rival families of the Cerchi and the Donati fought for political ascendancy under the names of Bianchie Neri— the whites and the blacks; elections for municipal officers to rule the little city-state came every six months, so that the people, in Lowell's phrase, might have two chances of constitutional revolution in each year; and not content with that they overthrew governments by force, killed one another in the streets, poisoned one another at table, and did their best to destroy the civic liberty which they loudly claimed to love. In such times of turbulence the wits and courage of men are stirred to their highest, and genius of a hundred kinds finds stimulus and opportunity. It was in this volcanic city that Durante Alighieri (for this was Dante’s earlier name) grew to love and poetry. He belonged to the rich family of the Frangipani, of whom popular envy had written: Colonna, Orsini Prendono oggie e pagano domanL that is, “The Colonna. the Orsini and the Frangipani take today and pay tomorrow.” Alighieri was a passionate and irritable lad. with all the heat of Italy in his blood; add that he was given to moods and solitary brooding. and it is evident that nature meant him for romance, for suffering, and for tragic verse. tt a SEE him, aged nine, at a party, trying to hide in the midst of a multitude, conscious es every limb on his body and of every eye and mind in the room, wincing at the thought that such a man is stronger, and such a girl too beautiful to notice him. Suddenly Beatrice Portinari is before him—only a girl of eight; but at once he is in love with her, to the full depth of his boyish soul, with a love too young to think of the flesh, and only mature enough to be flooded with devotion. “At that instant I say truly that the spirit of life, which dwells in the most secret chambers of the heart, began to tremble with such violence that it appeared fearfully in the least pulses, and trembling, said these words: “Behold a God stronger than I, who, coming, shall rule over me!” So he writes, years later, in an idealized account; for nothing is ever so sweet in our memories as first love. And then he goes on: My soul was wholly given over to the thought of this most gentle lady; whereby in brief time I fell into so frail and feeble a condition that my appearance was grievous to many of my friends . . . And many sought to know from me that which I wished to conceal. But I, perceiving their questioning, answered that it was love that had brought me to this pass. I spoke of love because I bore on my face so many of his signs that this could not be concealed. But when they asked me ‘for whom has love thus wasted thee?’ I. smilingly, looked at them and said nothing. Cruel critics have doubted Beatrice’s existence; agnosticism is the fashion in history. But Boccaccio, writing soon after Dante’s death, tells us that Beatrice became the wife of Simone dei Bardi, and died in her twenty-fourth year; that
Side Tracked!
THE STORY OF CIVILIZATION
Written for The Times by Will Durant
Dante married Gemma dei Donati, and had with her four children and many quarrels—unable to forget the face of the girl who had died before time could efface her beauty, or realized desire could dull the edge of imagination. For, says Boccaccio, he had “received the image of her into his heart with such affection....never, so long as he lived, did it depart therefrom.” But time has it’s way; and Dante, now grown to the voting age, plunged into the whirlpool of politics. He joined the Whites against the Blacks, and the supporters of the emperor against the pope. In 1300, for three months, he was one of the seven members of the commission that governed Florence. Then, as quickly as he had risen, he was overthrown; the Blacks, with the help of Pope Boniface VIII; overcame the Whites, and Dante, with his fellow commissioners, was sent into indefinite exile, while their property was confiscated and sold. u a a F'OR years he wandered in poverty. deserted by his family and his friends, who found his stem and implacable spirit uncomfortable company. He called upon the emperor to invade Italy and avenge the trickery of the pope and wrote an impassioned argument, “De Monarchia,” for the temporal sovereignty of the king: without monarchy there is no unity, without unity there is no peace, without peace there is no civilization. Instead of asking pardon he wrote to the Florentines that the emperor would soon come down and revenge the exiles against the ingratitude of their city. But the emperor did not come. After fifteen years of exile he received intimation that if he would pay a fine and undergo the humiliating, ceremony of “oblation” at the altar as a released prisoner, he might be reinstated in his property at Florence. He refused with the pride of a poet. Is such an invitation to return to his country glorious to Dante Alighieri, after suffering in exile almost fifteen years? Far from the man who is familier with
Richmond Palladium Irrespective of the merits of the case or the righteousness of the cause, it ill behooves either of the Indiana senators to accuse an official, senator or otherwise, of any connection with the Sinclair scandal. Corruption in politics is a topic which the Indiana senators should let alone, or, if they have any thoughts or facts along these lines, it would be a good policy to pass the word on to some other senator and let him do the talking. Senator Robinson will not get very far with his speeches on the naval oil leases. The Indiana background is just a little too sordid, sinister, and spotted with political corruption to serve as an inspiring setting for a senator who wishes to expose conniption elsewhere or to chastise those who might be implicated. If Senator Robinson had been in the forefront of the fight to clean .up Indiana’s mess, he could seak with a clear conscience and the country might listen to him, but having accepted employment from D. C. Stephenson in his balmy days and having lifted no hand to help those whose wish to oust rotten politics from the state, Senator Robinson hardly can pass muster as a fearless reformer and an immacualte apostle of good government. The country puts little confidence in what he says or does, so long as he refuses to give his support to the betterment of conditions in Indiana. Muncic Press Why not be just as eager to give credit to a community that does its best to clean up (and clean out) its evil civic conditions as to lambaste it for permitting such conditions to be brought about? Indianapolis deserves much praise for what is now going on there. A few months ago it forced Mayor John Duvall out of office after he had been convicted of a
philosophy be the senseless baseness of a heart of earth that could offer itself up, as it were in chains. No. this is not the way that shall lead me back to my country. I will return with hasty steps, if you or any other can open to me a way that shall not derogate from the fame and honor of Dante: but if by no such way Florence can be entered, then Florence I shall never enter again. What? Shall I not everywhere enjoy the light of the sun and stars? And may I not seek and contemplate, in every corner of the earth, under the canopy of heaven, consoling and delightful truth? The Florentines, instead of being touched with this message, decreed that wherever caught he should be burned alive. He was not caught, but at least spiritually he was burned alive; he could describe hell later because he went through every realm of it on earth. He passed from city to city, hunted and friendless, time and again near to starvation. His solace was the memory of Beatrice; he could think of her now with less distraction, having been separated so long from family and home. Once he had written sonnets to her, which he had collected under the title of Vita Nuova—the New Life; now he found a sombre pleasure in re-interpreting those sensuous lyrics into allegory, identifying Beatrice with Truth, and his love for her with Philosophy, the love of wisdom; so he conquered his despair, and prepared the way for the symbolism of his masterpiece. Perhaps the poem he had now begun to write saved him from madness and suicide. Nothing so cleanses the dross out of a man as the creation of beauty or the pursuit of truth; and if the two are merged into one in him, as they were in Dante, he must be purified. This bitter world was unbearable except, as Nietzsche would phrase it, to the eye that considered it as a dramatic andcsthetic spectacle; to look at it as a scene to be pictured would take some of its sting away.

criminal charge. Then the Marion County prosecuting attorney’s office brought about the indictment of the Governor bf Indiana on an attempt bribery charge and the Governor escaped possible conviction by pleading the statute of limitations. Now It has just convicted one member of the city council for bribery and has forced two other councilmen who are under indictment on similar charges, to resign. Any community may become politically careless and permit evil men to gain controi but if it tries to correct the evil, as Indianapolis is doing, it deserves congratulations from the rest of the State. Frankfort Timpt Along about this time of year a strange and pernicious malady fastens itself on many of our sturdiest citizens. It is brought on by bright spring days, and its major symptom is a strong disinclination for any kind of work. In severe cases, this practically incapacitates the sufferer lor usefulness of his regular job; where the ailment is less strong, it renders him reluctant to perform such household tasks as carrying out the ashes, washing the auto or wagon. There are. in addition, secondary characteristics which are very distressing. Among these is a kind of dementia, giving the patient delusions of youth and romance, and followed, in rare cases, by acute delirium, in which the sufferer babbles of open roads, light o’ loves and far horizons. Such are the ravages of spring fever. There is no known cure; all that can be done is let the malady run its course and hope for a speedy convalescence. We are all subject to it. Fortunately, our national habit of industry and efficiency helps., us ward off seriou* consequences.

M. S. TRACY SAYS: ‘The Stock Exchange Will Close Friday and Saturday, for Which Everybody Ought to Be Thankful
When young Dodgson entertained Alice Liddell ami her two sisters with his fantastic yarning as they rowed up and down the Thames sixty-five years ago, he little thought that he was composing a world-fa-mous book, and when Alice received the written out tales as a Christmas gift, she little thought that it would bring her not only relief, but a fortune in the lonesome, latter years. Much cash, coupled with the desire to possess what others cannot afford, has placed an unheard of value on the handwriting of great men, the original script of beoks and other rare trifles connected with deeds or events which have macie a lasting impression. If someone had told Mr. Dodgson, who lost his real name when lie became famous and doomed himself to go down in history as Lewis Carroll, that the ninety-two sheets of paper he wrote out and gave to a 9-year-old girl for no other reason than that he wanted to please her would one day bring $75,000 In cold hard cash, the chances are that he would have taken it as an attempt to make fun of him. In all his wild imaginings, he never conceived a more preposterous story that reality has woven around his manuscript. The scribbling to amuse himself and three little girls has become a literary masterpiece; the Christinas present turns into a fortune, and two great nations compete for a sheaf of papers that might have been lost in a dozen different ways had they not touched that peculiar affection which goes with simple acts of kindness. n tt * Establishing of Values Sometimes you cannot help wondering where values come from. It is little less than an extravaganza to find names selling for a price that their owners could never meet, to find the manuscripts of books bringing more than the books themselves. Dr. Rosenbach outbids the British Museum, paying more than $75,000 for the original of “Alice in Wonderland,” and the manuscript of Poe's ’“Raven” brings $7,600. Poe received a mere pittance for the poem, and would not fare much better today. Does this prove appreciation of good poetry, or pride, of possession? There is obviously a psychological side to value. Whether it is a share of stock in General Motors, a Button Gwinnet signature or a banjo clock, you have to go beyond what the thing really cost, what it has accomplished, or what it will earn to find a sound reason for the amount some people are willing to pay for it. Though we regard one as purely commercial and the other as purely artistic, we appraise stocks and antiques in much the same way. • u a Stock Exchange Rest The stock exchange will close Friday and Saturday, for which everybody ought to be thankful. The clerks and bookkeepers need a rest, while the speculators need time to sober up. The former have sat up nights for a month and more in order that the latter might have a Roman holiday making paper fortunes. They are not only tired, but behind with their work. The American stock market is emerging from one of the longest runs of fever it ever suffered. Hundreds of millionaires have been made since the first of January and thousands of small fry will probably go broke to pay for it. Whatever one may think as to the amount of water that has been pumpeed into certain securities, mob psychology has done most of the pumping. m m > Overdoing Good Thing Most people agreed with President Coolidge when he said he saw no occasion for alarm in the sac: that brokers’ loans amounted to three billion dollars. There is a lot of difference, however, between three billion and four billion and a half, which is what they amount to now. Even those who thought President Coolidge was right, will not quarrel with the Federal Reserve hoard for trying to call a halt. No matter how good a thing it is it can be overdone. a tt a Danger in Extremes The danger of the stock situation consists in the fact, that one extreme usually leads to another. “The morning after” is a natural follow-up to the wild spree. Excessive enthusiasm accomplishes nothing more frequently than to make room for depression. Speculation depends for its profit on the movement of stocks not on their value. When stocks cannot; be moved any higher, speculation has no choice but to move them down. We have not been dealing with sound business judgment during the past three months, but with wave after wave of emotionalism, inspired by tips, hunches and hero worship now can the shine be removed from a skirt? Sponge the garment with hot vinegar or ammonia (one tablespoon of ammonia to one quart of water). Cover with damp cloth and press on right side. Remove cloth and brush. What is the diffeemcn between a buli bat and a whipporwill? The whipporwill is a small nocturnal bird with a very musical call, while the bull bat is a night-hawk, that makes a loud noise while flying.
