Delegate Jackson ( Certainly if there be anything in the claim for Senator Watson that he pays his political debts, he will change his mind on the matter of the orator who will present his claims for the presidential nomination and give the chance to Delegate Ed Jackson. That would answer the stories that are whispered wherever Republican politicians meet that Watson is greatly disturbed by the fact that the delegates who follow Boss Coffin had decided to send the Governor to Kansas City to help pick a presidential nominee and write a platform. Why should Watson have been disturbed over this matter and charge that it was a political bit of revenge planned and plotted by former Governor Goodrich? The selection was so perfectly in keeping with the primary campaign and with the action of the entire State convention that Watson can hardly object to a public exhibition of his jewels in the great xiational gathering. If Watson had any objections to T ackson as a delegate, the proper time for p v/test was last winter when attorneys for Jackson, after i listening to damning evidence concerning the t offer of a bribe to Warren T. McCray, decided l that the safest plan was to plead' the statute of \ limitations. , Had there been any sincerity in the Watson disgust with Jackson, he had his chance then 'to denounce any Governor who avoulcl call upon this statute of limitations to protect his liberty >vhen honor had fled. [ Had Watson been really sincere in being out of step with Jackson and the influences which created Jackson, he could easily have called attention to the fact during his primary campaign and called upon the Republicans repudiate Jackson and Coffin and the nightgowned boys who came through for him because of reciprocal favors in behalf of Arthur Robinson. The Senator owes a debt to the national party in which he aspires to be a leading figure. • He should not only invite but demand that Jackson present the Watson name to the convention and in doing so rehearse in full the facts which have been exposed to numerous grand juries in Indiana during the past few months and point to them with pride as the manner in which a political machine can get* results. The Governor should be given one more chance tc tell the Nation exactly what he thinks of the statute of limitations and its application to political sins. So many former aids of Senator Watson iare unavoidably missing that it would seem that fond memories would prompt the drafting of Jackson for the nominating speech. Unfortunately former Chairman Walb will be near to but not at the Kansas City convention. He, it will be remembered, is sojourning at Leavenworth as a guest of the Government which was insistent on extending its hospitality. Stephenson of 1924 fame is also missing and will not be able to help. But Jackson, free through the beneficence of the statute of limitations and a delegate through the edict of Boss Coffin, indicted with him, is still available. There is no question of the Jackson ability as an orator. He has charmed many an audience and congregation. The hillsides have echoed his twilight pleas. Certainly the senior Senator, who alone seems to think that he is a serious candidate for the presidency, will not so far forget the proprieties of political tradition as to choose any other than the Governor of the State to eulogize and give emphasis to the Watson claims for highest honor. Then the people would really know. There would be po need of furnishing any delegate a chart. They would all understand what happened in Indiana and why this delegation is not voting for Herbert Hoover. The Railroads’ Job The railroads of this country are doing a pretty good job. They are giving very efficient transportation service at a cost which, all things considered, is quite reasonable. We have a right to be prcud of them. Yet when a railroad publicity clip-sheet complains that “no other private business is so fully under the jurisdiction of the Washington bureaucracy as is the railroad business,” it would pay us to remember a hard fact or two. Chief of these is the fact that the railroads brought Government regulation on themselves. Read the history of the country for the half century preceding the establishment of the Interstate Commerce Commissirn and you’ll agree. The roads should not be strangled in red tape, of course; but we should think long and earnestly before doing away with all regulation whatever. There is little chance for bolshevism when 24.000,000 people are driving cars, says a political leader. The man probably never has been driving a car in a Sunday procession when the head of the parade wouldn’t go more than ten miles an hour and that in the middle of the road. ’ * £

Four Days More A thorough trial of Government ownership of a great power situ is a matter of eventually, ‘why not now? Such a trial on a scale large enough to provide a decisive answer to the long, long dispute on the relative merits of government as distinct from private operation is made possible in the Muscle Shoals bill, passed by Congress, and now held by President Coolidge. The President has only until June 7 in which to act. t That the truth may be arrived at in a great and as yet undecided controversy, the President should sign the bill. Calles’ Fine Example A chapter from Spartan history enacted in real life was the sudden and dramatic dismissal and arrest of President Calles’ chief of staff, Brig. Gen. Jose Alvarez, on a charge of complicity in a huge smuggling plot. Yesterday General Alvarez was one of the idols of Mexico City. A close personal friend of the president, his right-hand man, working shoulder to shoulder with him every day in the executive office; young, handsome and "universally popular, the chief of the presidential headquarters staff generally was regarded as a beau ideal of an officer and a favorite of fortune. Today, at the instigation of the Mexican president himself, he is held by the police e waiting trial in criminal courts. Vast quantities of cilk have been smuggled into the country, generally as “government archives” from the United States, passing the border on orders purporting to be signed by Calles. investigation proved beyond a doubt, President Calles declared in a statement to the press, the guilt of his chief of staff. “Consequently ... I ordered the immediate dismissal of Alvarez and consigned him to the competent authorities.” What a lesson to our country! Here was a high official, in fact one of the very highest in Mexico next to the president himself, and general favorite of officialdom, caught profiting by his position to line his pockets with dishonest gold. And bingo! Out he was fired and into jail. “Although I was the object of friendly intervention,” said President Calles, “in an effort to obtain lenient treatment for Alvarez in view of his past services to the government and the republic, I was not inclined to consider any proposals which did not embody strict compliance with my duty as the chief executive of the country and the defender of ad- j ministrative honesty.” Our own Government and all our American institutions, including big business, might profit immeasurably by taking a leaf out of President Calles’ book. His was a courageous act and deserving of the highest praise. Summary dismissal of crooked officials, high or low, in government service or in business administration, and turning them over to the police for prompt justice, could have a mighty wholesome effect in this country. Spartan justice from the top downward is the first i essential if we vould engender general respect for law and order. General Alvarez’ crime was all the greater, said President Calles, because of the position of trust he held. He was “a traitor at least to the principles of honor arjd morality,” the president told the press, and should be treated accordingly, regardless of powerful influences pleading to have his lapse glossed over. If a few of our “traitors” were given the Alvarez treatment, incalculable good would result in every walk c our national life.

David Dietz on Science ——. ■ One of Earth’s Mysteries

No. 67 THE earth’s magnetism is still one of the great mysteries facing the scientists. Just what it is, just what causes it and why the variations or changes take place are questions which cannot yet be satisfactory answered. Gilbert in his famous treatise on magnetism in 1600 called the earth a great magnet. We still sometimes use the same simile but we

netic poles of the earth coincided with the North and South poles, the poles of rotation. But further study soon upset Gilbert’s idea. Today we know that the earth’s magnetic poles do not coincide with the poles of rotation. There are great irregulartiies in the earth’s magnetic field, as evidenced by the variation of the compass needle from the true nortfy the so-called magnetic declination. And, in addition, we must deal with the secular change of declination, the slow change from year to year, as well, as the daily and annual fluctuations. Another defflculty in the way of considering^the earth as a great magnet is the fact that when a magnet is heated, it loses its magnetism. Most geologists are of the opinion that the interior of the earth, while solid, is, nevertheless, at a very high temperature. It is difficult to understand why this temperature would not demagnetize the earth’s interior even if it were composed of magnetic material. The earth’s interior, howeyer, is under tremendous pressure. Recently experiments were undertaken by the geophysical laboratory and the bureau of terrestrial magnetis of the Carnegie Institution of Washington. These joint experiments were to see if magnetic properties varied under high pressure and if magnetic materials maintained their magnetism under high temperature, provided the pressure was high. The outcome of these experiments will be awaited with interest by the scientific world. These experiments are particularly interesting since, according to the theory of Adams and Washington, the earth has a core of solid iron.

M. E. TRACY SAYS: “Though Most Folks Do Not Realize It, Civilization Means Vastly More to Primitive People, Because it Lifts Them Faster and Higher.”

'T'HIS is one time the dawn did -*• not come up “like thunder out of China ’cross the bay,” making many a prophet wish he had not committed himself. Chang Tso-Lin it seems, would rather be a live despot in Manchuria than a dead hero in Pekin, so he leaves the Forbidden City, without offering resistance, preceded by his wives, concubines, household retainers and dope. “A bloodless victory for the Nationalists,” dispatches say, .“but none the less glorious,” which is true, perhaps, though hard for orthodox minds to comprehend. Two thousand years of good Christian history have made it ! difficult for orthodox minds to think I of a victory as glorious, without more or less blood letting. Though content with a happy ending in the movies, orthodox minds prefer a last ditch stand and a million or so unnecessary widows when nations fight, i Chang Tso-Lin has given historians, if not scenario writers, a new idea to play with, or was it Japan? At any rate the curtain goes down on this latest oriental dranva with everybody concerned surprised and pleased. The Nationalists get Pekin and the chance to unity, pacify and transmogrify China; Chang Tso-Lm gets back his own stamping ground with a chance to play at dictating Manchuria, while Japan sees that he is inconvenienced by “no fighting,” and Japan gets the use of his services as her protege without appearing to have opposed the Nationalists. Cecil Demille could not have improved on this denouement. a a a Islanders Await Fliers Having flown from San Francisco to Hawaii, Capt. Kingsford-Smith and his three intrepid companions now take off for the Fiji Islands. The Fiji Islands are only 3,200 miles away, with nothing between but deep blue sky and deep blue water. ■Not the least interesting phase of this spectacular hop is the way. the Fiji Islanders are pepped up over it. They are reported as converging on the capital from the two or three hundred surrounding isles and islets, and some among them, no doubt, who thus pay tribute to the white man’s magic, can recall the desire to taste the white man’s flesh, if not the actual experience. If time seems to have moved fast with us, what must the Fiji Islanders think? While we were going from ox carts to automobiles, they jumped from the jungle to modern life. Though most folks do not realize it, civilization means vastly more to i primitive people, because it lifts them faster and higher. a a a Speed of Civilization Modern means of trade, travel and communication are significant not so much for what they mean to the civilized world as for what they promise the backward multitudes. Knowledge, especially of a practical character, is going to spread from now on at an unparalelled pace. People who did not know what a plow was ten years ago will soon be driving tractors. The things that it took centuries to learn in books will be conveyed rapidly by concrete example. Philosophy and religion may not be absorbed any faster, but the knack of using our tools will be acquired quickly. a a a Dress Is Standardized The effect of such contact as wc have been able to establish with primitive people during the last few years is to be noted in the standardization of dress. One hundred, or even fifty years ago, dress was the badge of race and nationality- You could tell a Chinaman, a Jap or even a Russian by the clothes he wore. School geographies were filled with pictures showing peculiarities of garb. All that is history. Clothes have become practically uniform throughout the world for those who can afford it. So far as coats, hats and pants are concerned a political gathering in Hong Kong or Moscow looks very much like the one about to be held in Kansas City. a a a Universal Language What has happened to dress is happening to language. English has become the tongue of the sea. In a few years it will have become the tongue of commerce. Traffic and travel such as are being developed throughout the world will not tolerate all the translating and interpreting which the present multiplicity of languages imposes. English, spoken as it is by 250,000,000 people, and representing as it does more than half the wealth, resources and political power of the world is too strongly entrenched, either to be set aside or give way to any language now in use. The day when it will become the universal medium of trade and diplomacy is not far distant.

must not take it as literally as did Gilbert. Gilbert imagined the earth a perfect magnet with all the char acteristics which would be found in a magnetized sphere of iron. He imagined the earth’s magnetism to be distributed symmetrically over its surface and that the mag-

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

KINGS AND QUEENS AS one flies over Spain today the history of the country seems written on the rugged face of the land. Almost everywhere mountains; in the north the Cantabrians and the Pyrenees; in the center the Credos and the Guadarrama; and all along the soutren coast a range of dark sierras. All these vistas are dark, with heavy threatening colors, and somber sunsets, predicting and determining the background of Spanish paintings, the fiery flame of Spanish eyes and dress, and the eternal hea. ol .the Spanish soul. Across these contorted hills communication is difficult; trains move through long, hot tunnels and emerge on terrible precipices or under rocky crags that seem poised to fall; consider the barriers these mountains raised when rails had not yet made roads over their passes, and rebellious authors could not scatter a million copies of a forbidden tract in one day’s flight through thelair. Ignorance and superstition were inevitable-here; ideas could not travel fast enough to outrun their own mortality; only dead truth could permeate those hills. There could be no reformation here and no enlightenment. But what a north and south and to the east! No wonder the Phoenicians came here, a thousand years before Christ and then the Greeks and Carthaginians and Romans and then, leaping the sea from Africa, the Moors and the Jews, opening new routes and making Spain for a time rich with trade. For half a millenium the little kingdoms of Castile, Aragon and Navarre fought to drive out these invaders of exotic faith; at last, in 1492, they won Granada, the last stronghold of the Moors. The warm southern sea lay open now, with a hundred splendid ports, to Spanish galleys; into the Mediterranean and out into the Atlantic they sailed, until the wealth of America poured into the lap of Spain, and even in the midst of obscurantism art and literature bloomed. For a century Spain financed great armies, overran Italy and the Netherlands, gave emperors to the Holy Roman Empire and, through Charles V and Philip 11, dominate Europe. tt tt u AFTER 1550 came the Golden Age of Spain, almost as fertile as the Age of Elizabeth in England. Lope de Vega and Calderon made drama the fashion, El Greco plagiarized the moderns, Velasquez immortalized moron roalties, Murillo wrote tender romances with the brush, literature invented the modem novel, created romantic, picaresque and satiric fiction and gave the world Don Quixote and Don Juan. But let us on to Ihe man whom his time endowed with all the privileges of poverty and whom the tardy world now honors with empty blasts of unfelt fame. His life was a romance stranger than those of chivalry. No wonder his Spanish biographers provide him with the genteelest genealogy, continuing after centuries the romantic traditions he sought to destroy; he lived like a knight—how could he have been bom but in some knightly rank? Nevertheless, the raw fact seems to be that he was bom (In 1547) of parents who had the good fortune to be quite undistinguished. They called him Miguel by the Spanish custom of naming a child from the saint whose feast fell on the day of its birth. It is an economical custom, whose uinVersal adoption would spare us many debates. In those days, as in ancient Athens, every man was a soldier, de Vega, Calderon and Cervantes like Jhe rest. The Holy War against the Moors was still aflame, though the Moors had been expelled; for now the rising government of Spain, growing by what it fed on, was determined to destroy the Moslem power everywhere. In 1571 Austria. Spain and the Papacy sent a great fleet to drive the Turks from the Mediterranean. Cervantes was so ill as the battle of Lepanto began that his commander ordered him below decks; but he

THE STORY OF CIVILIZATION

Written for The Times by Will Durant

was too young to stay out of a fight; and he retired only after being disabled by three wounds, two in the chest and one in the arm. Poor surgery rendered the limb limp and useless, but he could say later that he had given his left arm for the greater glory of his right. For years he lay convalescing: then, strong again, he set sail for home, loaded with letters commending him for his bravery. But Algerian pirates captured his ship, and judged from the papers or. him that he was a great man; only the pirates of his time rated him rightly. They held him in slavery for five years, asking for him such a ransom as his poor family and friends could not afford to pay. Three times he tried to escape though the penalty of death had been decreed for failing in such attempts; three times the noose was about his neck, when his master pardoned him for love of his wit; he was worth more alive than dead to his enemies, though with his country it went the other way. a a a AT last he was ransomed, and re - turned to Spain burdened with the debt incurred to save him. His mother, his sister and his niece welcomed him, since they were now to rely on his support. Not content with this, he procured for himself a natural daughter; finally, he added a wife. She had a name—Catalina dc Palacios Salazar y Vozmediano de Esquivias—and a dowry consisting of five vines, one orchard, four beehives, fifty hens and one rooster Cervantes, to prove the insanity of genius, undertok to support two males and fifty-five females with his pen. In 1594 he signed a contract with a theatrical manager of Seville to write six comedies at fifty ducats each, the money to be handed over if the manager admitted that they were “among the best in Spain.” The result was that he found himself in jail; no writer can support a large family without sacrificing some of the commandments. We know neither the dates nor the cause, and it is just as well; these are private matters, into which we need not enter. A few years later he was arrested again, because a nobleman 'had been murdered hi his house. Meanwhile he wrote drama as well as lived it; but his plays failed, and he spent his days in despondent poverty; who knows but that his great novel is a bitter satire against all the sentiment and idealism of this rough world? He tried his hand at pastoral romance, “Galatea;” he thought it, to the end of his days, his masterpiece, despite the fact that it was precisely the sort of novel which he later attempted to annihilate; we have always in us a secret abundance of that which we denounce. And then, an old man of fifty-seven, amid jail-sentences and destitution, he wrote at last the most famous novel in the world. Carlyle describes him:

A certain strong man fought stoutly at Lepanto; worked stoutly as an Algerian slave; stoutly delivered himself from such working; with stout cheerfulness endured famine and nakedness and the world’s ingratitude; and sitting in jail, with one arm left him, wrote our joyfullest and all but our deepest modern book, and named it “Don Quixote.” It was almost the first as well as the most famous of novels. The Greeks had written fiction, usually of modest proportions and aiming rather at simple narrative than at exposition of character; the romancers of the Middle Ages had spun their endless tales of impossible chivalry ad infinitum co console gentle ladies for monogamy; Poccaccio and Margaret of Navarre had made a “Decameron” and an “Heptameron,” recounting in form as loose as the matter, the tales of ten or seven days; but to portray human character, and picture human life, in the mirror of prose and fiction, waited for Cervantes.

Power Lobby Smarts Under Inquiry Slaps

Bn United Pi esn WASHINGTON, June 4.--The powe:.* lobby is beginning to smart under the investigation of the Federal Trade Commission The joint committee of national utilities has been resting on its laurels since the power investigation was shunted from the Senate tc the Federal Trade Commission. During recent weeks, while the commission’s inquiry has progressed, the joint committee hasn’t emitted a cheep. Bt now the lobbyists are on the defensive. The joint committee has begun to issue what purports to be a resume of the hearings before the commission. You would gather from this that the propagandists have been engaged in a wholly praiseworthy effort at public uplift. ' Another effort at fighting back is made in a statement from P. H. Gadsden, utility magnate of Philadelphia, and chairman of the executive committee of the joint committee. Gadsden, testimony has shown, has been one of the leaders in the effort to influence public thought and legislation. Gadsden is much aggrieved. Some of the newspapers have drawn what seem to him to be “premature conclusions.” It has been published, says he. j that propagandists employed by the i utilities have penetrated the educaj tional systems of the country, “disi tributing material unfairly praising the services of public utilities and | improperly criticising and condemn - j ing public ownership. a a a Newspapers have said that text books have been written or rewritten by subsidized authors, Gadsden complains. “These characterizations of the activities of the representatives of the utilities are unwarranted by the evidence so far introduced and are basically untrue,” declares Gadsden. Gadsden’s statement does not | question the accuracy of testimony that the joint committee raised i $400,000 between June and Decem- ; ber of 1927 to combat the Walsh | resolution, and Boulder Dam and Muscle Shoals legislation. It not comment on testimony that the National Electric Light Association within a year collected millions for propaganda purposes. What .seems to hurt Gadsden 1 most is the accusations concerning | power propagandists’ activities in ! flie schools in eighteen States. The j utilities, he says, have been willing i to furnish “instructive and informalory booklets,” containing facts about which there can be little dispute. a a a TJE has attended several hearA A ings, Gadsden says, but he does 1 not m ake it clear whether he read ; the “catechism" which it was testij fled the utilties of Cinnecticut furi nished seventy-six high schools, and which is used as a textbook. This catechism asks the question: “What is the effect of adverse criticism upon public utility service?” Here is the answer: “When people in any community criticise adversely public utilities in their city they are advertising ther own city to outsiders as a poor place to live, and thereby are retarding its growth.” The catechism has this to say about public operation: “In every case in which a community. has attempted to operate a public service industry, which is subject to great changes and developments ... it is found that the cost of (he service is higher than vhen furnished by a private corporation.” * The catechism did not refer to Los Angeles, Seattle and other cities in which public plants are operated successfully. a a NOR did Gadsden comment on the testimony of J. 6. s. Richardson, formerly employed by me utilities in his own Stat and now working for the joint committee. Richardson, while in /Pennsylvania reported: “The committee was directly instrumental in installing public utility courses in the University of Pennsylvania and Temple University, it aided materially in the recent completion of a course on public utility economics at State College.” Richardson explained to a curious utility executive in Kansas that the University of Pennsylvania course had been “put across in the usual way and that the ‘“groundwork had been laid with great care* to make it appear that the suggestion had come from the faculty rather than from an outside source. In lowa, an assistant director in surveying school texts found that they suggested debates. Here was a real opportunity. “If the text does not provide information favoring municipal ownership, it leaves a clear field for the utility interests to provide plenty of material favoring private ownership,” he found. He* thought it was “up to the utilities” to provide plenty of material to “guide students.” a a a Joe Carmichael, chief publicity man, explained, “We have this matter pretty well in hand, but do not intend to let any of these bugs slip anything over on us.” This same Carmichael “rounded up” professors from four colleges in his State to attend a meeting in Kansas City under direction of Dean C. O. Ruggles of Ohio State, under sponsorship of the National Electric Light Association. Harvard and numerous other colleges received cash grants from the N. E. L. A., running as high as $30,000 a year. Harvard got that sum each year for three years, and it was hoped among other things there would be a report on “the fundamentals of regulation.” Numerous college professors, testimony has shown, received pay from the utilities. A professor from the University of Pennsylvania, where Galdsden resides, received $250 each for lectures in which he characterized advocates of the Boulder Dam and Muscle Shoals legislation as bolsheviks and radicals. /
