The Indiana Issue The candidates and leaders of the Democratic party of this State who gather today should be under no illusions as to their responsibility and their opportunity. There is something more than a contest between party organizations in this State this year. There is a crusade that has nothing to do with parties at all. The demand of men and women of all parties and all shades of political belief is that the forces and influences which held, through fraud and misrepresentation and trickeries, the State government in the past few years be overthrown and the government returned to those who represent the people and who stand for a different morality. The Republican candidate for Governor is heir to Jacksonism and Stephensonism. Those Republicans who voted in large numbers to redeem their party were dismayed by the fact that the convention of their party, in this important matter, was controlled by the same old forces which had given the State a Jackson four years ago. The vo es in that convention for a man who was fourth or fifth or some other remote choice of Republican voters came from the Klaverns and the local Coffin machine, now under investigation for ballot frauds. The people have not forgotten that their present Governor owes his liberty to the statute of limitations which he pleaded after witnesses had very conclusively proved his guilt of an attempt to bribe former Governor McCray to give the Coffin machine control of the prosecutorship of this county. The people know the shame and the humiliation which has been theirs because of the unfortunate control of their party by these forces which again demand and desire power. There can be no illusions as to the undesirability of sending Arthur Robinson back to the Senate. He was too closely linked with the clays of Stephensonism. He is too much the creation of the Coffin discredited machine. The issues in this State are much more important than the ideas of Herbert Hoover on farm relief or A1 Smith’s personal views on the desirability of changing the Volstead act so as to permit each State to settle by referendum and local option the exact amount of alcohol which they believe will intoxicate their citizens. The demand in this State is for public ownership of government. The desire of decent citizens regardless of party labels, is for a State government for which they neither have to apologize nor curse. Interesting as the national campaign may become, the big battle in Indiana will and should center about the Statehouse and the senatorship. The First to Blunder In this momentous campaign of campaigns for the presidency, it is to be expected that there will be many blunders. Not all the blunders will become apparent until after the election, when the losing party looks around for some good reason to give its backers for its defeat. While he will not be responsible for all the blunders, and perhaps ior no further ones, Senator Joseph Robinson, the vice presidential nominee of the Democratic party, gets credit for committing the first. Robinson, who backed Smith in the face of sentiment in a State presumably very dry, has decided that the Republicans may break into the Solid South. He urged upon Governor Smith the necessity of having a regional campaign office below the Mason and Dixon line. Smith was smart enough to reject the idea. If there is weakness in the South the Democrats do not want to admit it. If the Democrats in that region, which has always been Democratic, intend to turn Republican, all the regional offices that Smith could establish between now and election day would not prevent it. Either Smith has the South or he hasn’t. If he has, so much the better for him. If he hasn’t, so much the worse. Aerial Traffic Laws The officials who have the final say-so on aerial traffic laws seem to be rather hard-boiled. Reputations mean nothing at all to them. Bert Acosta, who flew across the Atlantic with Byrd, recently was fined heavily for breaking various air regulations. Now comes word from Montreal that Duke Shiller, one of Canada’s most distinguished fliers, has lost his license for six months because the officials held him responsible for a recent airplane smashup. The rules, evidently, are being enforced to the hilt without regard for big names. That is as it should be. It makes for safety and security.. The Power Trust Probe A big middle western newspaper runs a st&ry by its Washington correspondent saying that the Federal Trade Commission’s investigation of the power trust “has failed of its purpose,” and protesting that public money is being spent on its continuation. Maybe the investigation has failed, for all we know. It does seem, though, as if it was worth all it cost to find out ho wthe utility barons are spreading propaganda throughout the natim. A few of those revelations about doctored text books were, to our notion* his highly important. It is hard to see just wherein the investigation has been a flop. To us it seems as if the country has got its money’s worth out of it.

Unwise Assumptions The American Civil Liberties Union is always a valiant and generally a worthy public servant. Certainly an organization committed to the militant and organized defense of the letter of the Bill of Rights in the Federal Constitution is needed in a Nation not infrequently forgetful of its laws and its traditions. ' And when the union confines itself to the actual details of a case of political or economic persecution, it generally strikes pretty close to the mark. But when It sets about preparing its annual reports, it seems to feel obliged to produce a large generalization to cover a myriad of facts. Asa result, it sometimes gets a little cock-eyed. In its annual report for 1928, for example, the union observes that while there was less active repression of civil liberties, “the general public attitude is .one of indifference and intolerance, more settled and more apathetic than at any time since the war.” The Civil Liberties Union of course, has no real evidence to back that observation. It is just an impression, based on a dangerous type of speculation about what is going on in other people’s minds. It is of the same reckless type as the observation that, although 1928 saw fewer cases of dismissals of teachers for their views it “probably was because the authorities have learned how to handle such issues without arousing controversy. Teachers’ appointments just are not renewed.” There is enough active suppression of civil liberties in the United'States to engage the attention of the Civil Liberties Union with concrete facts. When it goes off the record to sing the blues about the state of the public mind in general, it does not help its own position or the cause it represents. The Norris Idea Turning from the surface aspects of the presidential election, Senator George W. Norris with his usual acumen, has pointed out to the country the fundamental problem that confronts us in this whole business of selecting a chief executive. The President of the United States is not chosen by all the people of the Nation, and will not be until anew system of elections Is adopted. Only seventeen States have direct primaries, where voters may participate in selection of a party nominee. And as things work out, the people in only a few of the seventeen actually have a chance to register their choice between outstanding candidates. The machinery of the electoral college is antiquated and clumsy, and it has been proved again and again that votes in the electoral college do not reflect accurately the popular vote of a candidate.Direct election of Presidents, for which Norris is pledging his energies and talents, is an end worth fighting for. This year, when the absurdities of a presidential campaign are plain before our eyes, is an opportune time to begin such a fight. Harry Kittredge’s Deed In Lowell, Mass., lives a man named Harry Kittredge whom all holdup men would do well to avoid hereafter. . A bandit attacked Kittredge and his wife late one night recently as they returned home after a drive. Instead of submitting, Kittredge grappled with him. The two fought vigorously, until Kittredge got his hands on the bandit’s throat. Then he tightened higrip and held on. After a time the bandit’s body relaxed and he fell unconscious. Mrs. Kittredge called the police. When the police arrived the bandit was dead. If more men showed the spirit and courage displayed by Kittredge, there would be fewer holdups. A bandit is essent.ally a coward; the average holdup man would give up in fear if he thought he were going to run any risk- This Lowell citizen who defended himself instead of submitting is to be commended.

David Dietz on Science ... Oboist Became Famous No. 103

THE CONSTELLATION of Cepheus is among the smaller constellations to be found in the heavens. It is composed of rather faint stars, containing none of either the first or second magnitude. But it serves to show that not all the interest in the constellations is centered in the large ones which contain the brightcst> st&rs Three of its stars, Er Rai, Alfirk and Alderamln, will in turn become the north stars due to the shift-

Astronomers named this star Delta because it is the fourth brightest star in the constellation. Mu is the Greek letter "M.” , Mu is known to astronomers as the celebrated “Garnet star.” It was given this name by the great English astronomer, Sir William Herschel, because of its beautiful ruddy hue. It is the reddest star to be seen with the unaided eye in the northern hemisphere. This star should be of double interest to you, first because of Its beautiful rich coloring; second, because it was Sir William Herschel who named it the garnet star. • There are few figures in the history of science more interesting than Herschel. His life is an inspiration to all who read it. He was born in Hanover, Germany, in 1783. His father was an army musician and he trained his son to follow in his footsteps. For four years Herschel played the oboe ip the Hanoverian Guards Band. In 1757 he ran away to England where he became first a bandmaster and then an organist. He became interested in astronomy and astounded by the wonders and beauties which a small telescope revealed, decided to build himelf a big telescope. As time went on he became the foremost telescope builder and astronomer of his day. He became famous throughout the world when he discovered the planet Uranus. He was knighted by King George 111, given many honorary degrees and in 1821 became the first president of the Royal Astronomical Society. So when you gaze at the garnet star think of the poor oboe player who became the greatest astronomer of his day. Something about Delta will be told next.

M. E. TRACY SAYS: “The Greater Variety of Goods We Use, the Farther and Faster We Travel, and the Better Acquainted We Become With Other People the Nearer Is Peace ”

THE reaction to Captain Carranza’s tragic fate is not only unique, but suggestive. He was a young man, never held high office and claimed distinction largely as a messenger of good will. In-view of what happened during the last fifv-'en ye; rs, it is startling to find Mexico accepting him as her national hero. Where are all the liberators who made such strenuous bids for popular favor, the warriors who vent forth to save the county, that he should be preferred above them? Where is all the anti-American sentiment, that his efforts to promote friendship with the United States should strike such a responsive chord? Where is all the course of revolution and politics that he should be the one to reunite a distracted people? Shall we dismiss the episode as due to general excitement over aviation, or shall we put on the rosetinted glasses of optimism and regard it as forecasting that “new order” of which, statesmen have dreamed? tt a tt Youth in New FTeld The wish being father to the thought, one is tempted to draw extravagent conclusions, to say that people are not only going in for a new kind of a hero, but that young men are visualizing anew field of adventure. Time was when a young man’s prowess was measured chiefly by what he could do to some other young man, and when he looked upon physical encounter whether as king, knight or common soldier, as the one and only road to glory. Time was when the role of messenger of good will was carefully saved up for Sunday services and as carefully laid aside during the other six days. We are constantly being told that we are growing irreligious and that youth is going to the dogs', but the case seems to require more proof than has yet been offered when you think of the Lindberghs, Chamberlins, Byrds, Ferrarins and Carranzas. In spite of all the jazz and jellybeans, the youth of this generation seems to have gotten hold of something big and fine which older people are more than glad to applaud.

Fear Air Invasion Flying from one country to another in machines which could rain death and destruction, can this hold any promise of peace, and do the people sense it? Well, let us pause and reflect. Good roads, widened peace areas on the land, though they seemed to promise an opposite effect at the start. In the beginning, men feared good roads, because, as they reasoned, barbaric hordes and unfriendly neighbors would only have an easier time getting at them. The same was true of the sea. Men regarded it as a friendly barrier in olden times, and were alarmed whenever it was crossed. But we know that the sea has brought vast regions under a fair degree of order where chaos formerly prevailed. * >t Trade, Travel for Peace Now we come to the air, a highway opened to all and capable of being monopolized by none. It is prophetic that the greatest pioneers of the air should be acting as messengers of good will and it is even more prophetic that their role should be received with such popular acclaim. We continue to pretend that the •proclamations, treaties and conferences of statesmen determine the relations of countries, though we know better. Deep down in our hearts, we know that trade, travel and the attitude developed by bc*h constitute the real secret. Deep dc*vn h. our hearts, we know that we would not be enjoying the peace and security we are but for the means of commercial and social intercourse, which modern civilization has supplied, that the steamship, railroad, telegraph, radio and allied agencies present the influence which, more than any other, is making us decent and orderly from an international standpoint. Deep down in our hearts, we realize that such a service as that about to be established by “American. Airways, Inc.,” between this country and Latin America will do more to promote peace than conference or treaty. tt tt tt Need Close Contact We are approaching world peace the same way that our ancestors approached village peace, tribal peace and State peace. As it becomes necessary to the social and industrial life, it will be established, and not before. We only dream when we imagine we make progress solely as a matter of poetry and Idealism. We make it through the ordinary day’s work and entertainment, through the things we want to eat, through the materials we use, through the places we visit and through the means we invent to satisfy our desires. The greater variety of goods we use, the farther and faster we travel and the better acquainted we become with other people the nearer is peace. We may be opposed to civil war on moral grounds, but tlpat is not what does most to prevent it. What does most to prevent it is the knowledge that it would deprive us of work, stop the pay envelope, force us to go without a lot of things to which we have grown accustomed, and mess up the situation generally. We are growing to feel the same way toward war among nations, and that is the one substantial promise of peace we really have.

High blood pressure, a dsngerous. modern ailment, has been made the subject of three dally articles In The Times. This Is the concluding article. By DR. MORRIS FISHBEIN Editor Journal of the American Medical Association and of Hvseia. the Health Magazine. IN their studies of the bodies of 420 persons Who had died with the symptoms of essential high blood pressure, pathologists in the University of Minnesota paid special attention to the condition of the heart and of the blood vessels. Their observations convinced them that persons with this condition are likely to have an enlarged heart, particularly one portion of the heart, namely, the left ventricle. The hearts of many patients with high blood pressure are, however, only slightly enlarged. The size of the heart is believed to depend on the length of the disease, the constancy of the high pressure and the circulation of the blood in the heart muscle itself. Hardening of the arteries of the heart itself they believe bears some causative relationship to essential high blood* pressure, since such changes in the coronary blood vessels were found most frequently.

Times Readers Voice Views

The following correspondence will be of interest to Times readers: Dear Dr. King: Referring to the enclosed clipping from The Indianapolis Times would you go so far as to say that white bread is as good as whole wheat bread, provided one likes it as well, or better? R. J. DEARBORN, University Heights. Dear Mr. Dearborn: I had no idea when I expressed myself concerning spinach, green vegetables, diet generally, etc., that I would stir up so much comment as has followed the little article in The Times. Nevertheless, I feel that \ a can well afford to be sane and sensible about what we eat. What is true of vegetables, is also true of cereals and grains. The whole grain of wheat is valuable as an article of food. By improved processes in milling, we finally have been enabled to separate everything but the white part of the grain and this we are accustomed to use in making bread. The average housewife and the average man over a period of years has learned to think of bread in terms of whiteness, so that both turn up their respective noses at bread that is dark in color, although this ,is the bread that carries all the nutritive qualities in the grain.

It was invented in 1891 by James Nainsmith from a suggestion made by Dr. L. H. Gulick that there was an opportunity to fill in the time between the football and the baseball seasons with an indoor game. The first printed statement about the game appeared in 1892 and it immediately met with favor and was taken up. Young Men’s Christian Associations played it first followed shortly by athletic clubs, National Guardsmen, schools and colleges. It now has a large and increasing patronage and some colleges devote almost as much time toit as they do to football. It is played extensively also in girls’ schools and colleges. There are basketball leagues all fever the United States and championship games are played. Does the back fire in the combustion chamber of an automobile enrich the mixture? “Back fires” do not occur in the combustion chamber of an automobile engine but in the intake or exhaust manifolds. Backfiring in the intake manifold usually occurs when the engine is cold and the mixture is lean. It does not enrich the mixture, but the heat generated in the manifold may result in a more complete vaporization of the fuel entering the cylinders just after the backfire occurs. i _____ How large is the crew of the Leviathan?

It is notable, moreover, that overweight tends to be associated Sith high blood pressure and that le high blood pressure tends to come down with a reduction in weight. On the other hand, many obese people do not have high blood pressure, and the disease not infrequently occurs in those who are underweight.

I would not advocate the eating of whole wheat bread to the exclusion of any other kind of bread, but I do think that those who eat white bread exclusively should get the benefit of the vitamine in the bran and other parts- of the grain aside from the kernel by eating whole grains in the form of some other cereal. This can be done by varying white bread with corn bread, by eating oats in the form of cereal, and by eating the different forms of breakfast food containing bran and other parts of the grain. Generally speaking, one who wishes to have the benefit of all the nutritive value of the wheat grain, can get it best in the form of bread made from whole wheat flour, but there is no reason why one should eat whole wheat bread exclusively, any more than there Is any good reason why one should eat white bread exclusively. The best bread diet is one that Is varied from time to time, using white bread, whole wheat bread, corn bread, graham bread, rye bread and also a varied diet of grains and cereals in what are commonly known as breakfast foods.

KEEPING UP With THE NEWS

BY LUDWELL DENNY WASHINGTON, July 16. American officials were look-* ing to Great Britain today for the ne’xt move in the anti-war treaty negotiations, following French and Italian acceptance of the much modified pact. Though a favorable British answer to the Kellogg proposal is believed assured sometime this week, the big question is whether the London conference jvill repeat its reservation for a so-called British Monroe doctrine. In an earlier note London stated that protection of certain undefined areas, presumably such as Suez and Persia, was a fundamental part of British foreign policy and necessary to the safety of the empire. Washington officials do not understand London’s delay in answering Kellogg’s revamped proposals of June 23. They have, however, carefully ayoided joining In the attack by large sections of the British public and press on Foreign Minister Chamberlain for the delay. Chamberlain, in reply to attacks, in the House of Commons last week, indicated that another month might be required by his government before answering Washington. But it is now believed the Conservative government will bow to public opinion and follow soon the action ol Germany, France and Italy. It is understood that Japan, Beli gium, Poland and Czecho-Slovakia informally have indicated their readiness to sign the treaty, and that their formal acceptance is only a matter of form to be complied with this week or soon thereafter. I The French reservations, which Kellogg considers satisfactory, show that the pact “renouncing war as an instrument of national policy’s is in no sense a renunciation of all war. on the contrary, the Kellogg pact, as now interpreted, is believed by diplomats to give anew moral sanction to so-called defensive war The proposed multilateral treaty is also interpreted by European diplomats and publicists as a moral underwriting by the United Statesj and official recognition by this Government of the punitive war provisions of the League of Nations, the Locarno and other European security pacts.

'P'RANCE'S restatement of the A reservations incorporated in the proposed treaty' by the Kellogg note of June 23 are worded somewhat differently and stronger than the Kellogg amendments. But the willingness of the State Department today to accept the new Briand interpretations makes the latter official. The French note says: “These interpretations may be resumed as follows: “Nothing in the new treaty restrains or compromises in any manner whatsoever the right of selfdefense. Each nation in this respect will always remain free to defend its territory against attack or invasion; it alone is competent to decide whether circumstances require recourse to war in self-defense. “Secondly, none of the provisions of the new treaty is in opposition to the provisions of the covenant of the League of Nations nor with those of the Locarno treaties or the treaties of neutrality. “Moreover any violation of the new treaty by one of the contracting parties would automatically release the other contracting powers front their obligations to the treaty breaking state. “Thanks to the clarification given by the new preamble and thanks moreover to the interpretations given to the new treaty, the government of the French republic congratulates itself that the new convention is compatible with the obligations of existing treaties to which France is otherwise a contracting party and the integral respect of which is necessarily imperatively imposed upon her by good fai s h and loyalty.” Crii'cs her and abroad of the rewritten Kellogg pact quote the new Kellogg preamble and this French note to support their contention that the American proposal which started out to “outlaw war” haa ened by “sanctifying the status quo and perpetuating the injustices of the Versailles peace.” tt tt tt JTALY, in its note made fublio today, likewise bases acceptance of the convention on the sweeping reinterpretations and reservations accepted by Kellogg’s note of June 23. Italy said: “The royal government, which has attentively examined the last draft of the treaty for the elimination of war proposed by the United States, takes note of and agrees wtih the interpretations of the said treaty which the government of the United States sets forth in he note of June 23 last, and on this promise declares that it is disposed to proceed to the signature thereof.”
