SCMPPJ-HOWAAD

Two Campaigns Were anything needed to emphasize the fact that there are two distinct campaigns this year in Indiana, the secret conference called by friends of Leslie, the Republican candidate for Governor furnishes the evidence. The hope that the popularity of Herbert Hoover and the universal confidence in his ability and integrity, will hide the hideous facts of the local State party and the past sins is dwindling. The truth is that Leslie has made himself the heir to all the evils and influences which are known as Stephonsonism and Jactsonism. The source of his nomination in the convention and his strength in the primary is too well known to be disguised. It was the same influence which produced a Governor who pleaded the statute of limitations. That there can be any reason for a true admirer and friend of Herbert Hoover voting for Leslie is beyond even imagination. The fact that the managers of Leslie are not relying upon the State committee and are now planning a separate, campaign is more than significant. It means, of course, that the forces of hate and intolerance and bigotry are to be secretly marshaled —and marshaled is a rather fair description. The people of this State understand that Indiana needs the new deal and the new deck and the cleanup or whatever it takes to clean out the crowd that has operated its affairs since the star of Stephenson arose in the political skies. The best support which can be given to Herbert Hoover, when he becomes president, is to have Indiana in hands for which he will be called upon to offer no apologies. Party labels mean nothing this year. It is a fight for decency and Indiana.

Recognize China The United States has agreed to negotiate anew commercial treaty with the Chinese nationalist government, granting tariff autonomy to that nation. This is heralded by the Administration as a step forward. It is. Anything which restores a shred of sovereignty to that unhappy country, so long subjected to control of alien governments, will be welcomed by friends of Justice and national independence. . But this is only a short step and a halting one. Chinese tariff autonomy, effective Jan. 1, 1929, was contemplated by the Pekin conference of two years ago, broken up by the civil war. The Pekin conference in turn was but carrying out the earlier pledges of the Washington conference. Now the new Kellogg note specifies that the proposed pact, in line with American policy, shall be a most favored nation treaty. So the United States can not possibly lose by this gesture, retaining as it will under such a treaty the beneficial duties now or in the future exacted by the other powers. There is a larger question. What does the State Department propose to do about de jure recognition? Since our agreement of last March with the nationalists over the unfortunate Nanking incident we have accorded their regime de facto recognition. Certainly the time is overdue for us to give the full diplomatic recognition and support which will help the new government to achieve conditions of national unity and stability, upon which depend both Chinese and American interests. But at the very heart the Chinese problem has been and is today the vicious and outgrowing system of extraterritoriality by which the United States and other powers maintain their own troops and courts in that country. Japan and Turkey kicked out pirniiar foreign rule. China is ready to do the same. Kellogg’s note is a disappointment, because it evades this major issv. It repeats the worn phrases of American friendship for China’s aspirations of independence, without ,ny concrete proposal for new “equal” treaties renouncing our special privileges. The Administration may be wise in taking the position that the change from extraterritoriality must be gradual and progressive, dependent upon China’s demonstrated ability to protect American citizens and their legitimate interests. But this process oi restoring Chinese sovereignty through treaties fixing the method and conditions under which our troops and courts are to be withdrawn permanently should be started immediately. The proposed new commercial treaty is not enough. These must be anew general treaty, in justice both to Chinese nationalism and to American democracy.

Presidential War Power Among the problems that the next session of Congress will tackle will be, probably, the knotty question of the powers which devolve on the President as a result of his constitutional position as commander in chief of our armed forces. This question was raised in the last sessioh in connection with the dispatch of marines to Nicaragua, but was not fully discussed. Doubtless the Senate will consider it again, however. The Constitution gives Congress sole power to declare war, but it gives the President powers over the Army and Navy which enable him to put the country in a state of war without any declaration by Congress. Buchanan has been the only President since Jefferson who did not feel that the President could land armed forces on foreign soil without congressional consent- All the others have assumed that he could. It has been pointed out that a President could force the country into war without consulting Congress at all; and the whole constitutional question doubtless will be discussed in the Senate. It may be guessed that the situation will remain unchanged. Our tendency of late has been to lodge more and more power in the hands of the President, and it is doubtful if this tendency will change now.

Last Night’s Battle Again the world and Mr. Tunney are at peace, and there appears to be no reason for dissatisfaction in any quarter as the dust of last night’s resin settles with the morning dew. Tunney keeps for another half year, at least, the title that gives him leisure for more gentle pursuits. Heeney can go his way without too much regret—a fortune and the knowledge of a fight well fought. The fans who paid got their money’s worth, though there are some who will deny it. The listeners to the Scripps-Howard broadcast probably “saw” the fight better than half those in Yankee Stadium. Tex Rickard, perhaps, may venture a dissenting voice in the general satisfaction. Some say he lost money. Maybe. If he did, there is the comforting possibility of his abandoning at last the fancy prices that made possible million dollar gates. Not until anew Dempsey, or anew John L. Sullivan, rises from obscurity to court the hatred and the adulation of men with the glitter of the killer as well as a gorilla’s strength will there be another “battle of the century.” A Dangerous Decision When a judge can enjoin further publication of a paper, state views of which he does not like, the freedom of the press will have gone the way of a Pennsylvania miner’s freedom to unionize and to strike. But that is what the Minnesota State Supreme Court says a judge in that State can do. It has upheld a lower court in sustaining an injunction against further publication of the Minneapolis Saturday Press. It is well, therefore, that the American Civil Liberties Union has undertaken to appeal the case to the United States Supreme Court, “lest it establish the. dangerous precedent of control of the press by injunction.” It seems that Minnesota recently enacted a law, the first of its kind in the country, which provides that the courts may enjoin the future nublication of any paper deemed “malicious, scandalous and defamatory.” Should such law stand, it is evident that the courts would at once become censors of all papers. What is “malicious, scandalous or defamatory” is a matter of opinion. If a judge is a friend of a powerful politician or official, who is attacked by a paper for corruption or incompetence, the judge could at once conclude that the material in the paper is “malicious, defamatory and scandalous,” and order the paper closed overnight. And what judges will do in the way of injunctions already has been sufficiently demonstrated. The Civil Liberties Union feels that the present law, which provides for punishing proved libel and after it is committed, is sufficient control of the press. The United States Constitution, specifically forbids legislation by Congress, “abridging the freedom of speech or of the press,” but it will be argued by some that this is a limitation only on Congress and does not' prevent a State, in its sovereign capacity, to abridge any liberties its citizens permit it to.

An “Official” Strike The textile strike at New Bedford, Mass., where thousands of workers are idle as a protest against reducing their wages to an average of something like $lB a week, may now be said to be official. The president of the New Bedford Cotton Man-, agers’ Association has issued a bristling statement charging that the strike is being carried on by communists and bolsheviks. That sort of statement is quite the thing these days. It Is easy to make, and will be swallowed whole by many excellent people, no matter how much evidence is offered in refutation. But it’s usually a bad indication. It is not often resorted to until all other methods of trying to break or settle the strike have failed. Headlines you never see: CHORUS GIRL, BRIDE OF HEIR, SPURNS ALIMONY, RETURNS TO HER ART. Trillions of Miles Away No. 113 VEGA, the beautiful blue-white star which is almost overhead these summer nights, has always attracted the attention of men. Some of the ancient Egyptian temples, built about 7,000 B. C., were constructed so that the light of Vega would shine through rows of pillars and fall upon the altar. Vega is about eighteen light-years away. Miles are too small for astronomical measurements. So the as-

lyra Si fP OR-the rJ I 1 L LYOE.. 7 /Tj"l |\ V

southern hemisphere, is 25,000,000,000,000 miles away. It is simpler, therefore, to say that it is four and a third light years away. Vega, we have said, is eighteen light years away. If you want the distance in miles, multiply 6,000,000,000,000 by 18. You will see it is 108,000,000,000,000 miles. The telescope reveals that Vega is really a double star. Its companion star is of the same color but very small, being a tenth magnitude star. Vega is the chief star of the constellation Lyra. The accompanying illustration shows how the ancient Greeks imagined Vega and the other stars of the constellation were situated in the lyre. The other stars of the constellation are small. Near Vega is a small star which the Arabs named Aladfar. This means “the talons of the eagle.” Vega, it will be recalled, is Arabic for the falling or swooping eagle. Four other faint stars form a parallelogram near Vega. The two stars in it farthest from Vega were named Sheliak and Sulufat by the Arabs. Both these names mean “the tortoise.” Here again is the conflict in names found in practically all the constellations. Apparently the Arabs at one time regarded the entire constellation as forming a tortoise. Sheliak is a variable star, its brilliance changing from night to night. Its period, that is, the time it takes to go from maximum brilliance to minimum and back to maximum is 12 days 21 hours and 43 minutes.

M. E. TRACY SAYS: “What the Crime Situation Calls For Is the Same Kind of Fast Riding, Expenditure, Organization and Ingenuity on the Part of Law Enforcement Officials as Are Making It Easy for Criminals."

ONCE more we come to the question of whether youth is growing better or worse. Miss Margaret Slattery, a religious teacher, and John R. Voorhis, president of the board of elections of greater New York, disagree. Contrary to what one might expect, the religious teacher regards the younger generation as “the most honest and conventional” we have had in years, while the venerable politician believes that the people of his boyhood were better than those of today. My own thought is that standards have changed much more than human nature, that the mechanism of modern life makes it necessary to do things differently, that speed, congestion, apartment houses, radio and innumerable other devices leave us less choice in the matter than a purely moral attitude suggests. tt tt tt Mass Activity Spreads The home and small communities are no longer such social centers as they once were. We now gather in thousands, where we once gathered in tens and twenties. Fifty million of us receive the details of a prize fight as it occurs, or listen to a political speech as it is delivered, where no more than 50,000 could have done so a generation back. Mass activity has come in with mass production. Morality, like other things, is being accommodated to meet the needs of the multitude. a u tt Buying Pleasure As Mr. Voorhis points out* young people do not pay as much attention to work as they did seventyfive years ago, or give so much thought to provision for their old age. One reason is that they do not have to. The twelve-hour day has given place to an eight-hour day, and Ethelbert Stewart, chief of the statistics division of the Department of Labor, says that we will soon come to the six-hour day and fiveday week. Increase of leisure time as well as spare cash, fyas produced a fundamental change in our sense of value, our activities and our attitude toward .life. The younger generation is growing up amid privileges, opportunities and temptations that our fathers and grandfathers knew nothing about. They are finding it difficult to make good use of their time because they have much more time on their hands. They are buying their pleasure, instead of providing it for themselves, because they have the money. The old morality simply does not fit the new material situation. tt St tt Reasons for Crime Silau H. Stravn of Chicago gives six reasons for the present prevalence of crime. Three of them are covered by what we call prosperity —automobiles, good roads and the consequent power of criminals to make a quick “get away”; increased wealth, which benefits the criminal along with other folks, and organization which enables the underworld to exert political pressure. To put it briefly, speed and spare time lead to mischief. Admitting that much, however, what are we gonig to do about it? Assuredly, we are not going to scrap our motor cars, break up our concrete highways, bum the money and return to poverty in the hope of reducing crime. Logical as It may be to recognize the evil effects of progress, It is futile to hold progress responsible. What the situation calls for is the same kind of fast riding, expenditure of money, organization and Ingenuity on the part of law enforcement officials as are making It easy for criminals. u tt a Ancient Law System Mr. Strawn puts his finger on the real trouble when he calls attention to the slow, inefficient administration of justice. The law stands forth conspicuously as our one institution that still employs ox-cart methods. Sometimes you wonder if the law knows that we have such conveniences as the telephone, telegraph and combustion engine, not to mention airplanes and radio. It takes more than half an hour for Congress to vote by roll call, though Congress could do so in thirty seconds with the proper electrical devices. Any industrial establishment could examine and classify 1,000 applicants for work, and do a good job at it, quicker than the average court selects a jury. If the comer grocery store conducted its business the way justice is admlnistared it could not survive three days in the most countrified section of the United States. Franklin’s hand press is kept as a curiosity by the printing trade, a few spinning wheels are to be found in museums or garrets, and occasionally you see a one-horse shay, but the law still holds sacred maxims, methods and precedents that were moth-eaten with age when these apliances were in their glory. Not only in the court, but in the schoolhouse and the home, we are applying seventeenth century rules and wondering why twentieth century young people do not observe them. Young people need about as much discipline as they ever did, and would be about as amenable to It. but not unless it accords with the time in which they live, with their opportunities, temptations and outlook.

By DR. MORRIS FISIIBEIN Editor Journal of 'the American Medical Association and of Hygcla, the Health Magazine. LIFE in the open is pleasant in the summer; it is, however, surrounded with hazards of which few people know and which are disastrous unless carefully considered. In considering preparations for safe camping, Dr. Walter M. Dickie of the California State Board of Health points out two o! the most useful tools that a camper can carry are a spade and an ax, and the spade is the more useful of the two. A spade permits the digging of trenches and the leveling of the camp site. It is useful for burying

(Abbreviations: A —ace: K —king: Q—queen: J —jack; X —any card lower than 10.) AFTER dummy’s cards are laid upon the table face-up, examine the twenty-six cards in your combined hands to see whether game can readily be made before your opponents win a trick. If you hold such high cards that game is assured, proceed to make it without further delay. If you are playing in a m.oor suit declaration, clubs or diamoncu., you need eleven tricks for game. If you are playing in a major suit declaration, hearts or spades, you need ten tricks for game. At no trump you need nine tricks for game. The quickest way to determine whether game is possible is to count the “losers.” Then set out to convert the possible losing tricks into probable winning tricks, your aim at all times being to make at least three tricks in excess of your book at no trump, four tricks in excess of your book in a major suit, and five in excess of your book in a minor suit. Sure tricks in your game may be few and yet game may be made. To find in your hand enough sure tricks to make game without the use of the “working tools” is unusual.. When you hold a “pianola,” a hand so strong that it practically “plays by itself,” and make game, you deserve no glory. However, when you accomplish such a result with proper finessing, ducking, squeezing and throwing the lead, to the bewilderment of your opponents and delight of your partner, you experience one of the finest thrills of the game. With a little application to the chapters which follow, you will acquire a knowledge of these tactics which will win for you more often than waiting for high cards and will give you more satisfaction as well as a decided advantage over players not so equipped.

What Other Editors Think

Ft. Wyne News-Sentinel “And first of all, I emerge an individualist—an unashamed individualist.” Thus speaks Herbert Hoover in the clever little volume entitled “American Individualism,” ranked by the Democratic New York Times as “among the few great formulations of American political theory.” This pronouncement of a great man’s personal philosophy, first published in 1922, shows that Herbert Hoover is not simply a great administrator, an intellectual machine, but rather a warm, sympathetic human being, strong in advocacy of the individual man, alive to the necessity of individual opportunity, anxious for the removal of barriers which prevent a man rising above a mediocre level. In Hoover’s discussion of individualism, there is vigor of thought and dynamic force of expression. He refers to generations “inheriting their father’s

all remnants of food, empty tin cans or bottles, and body waste. It helps get rid of camp garbage which attracts flies and insects. In the disposal of waste by the use of the spade, they should be buried at least twenty-five fe"t from any stream or body of water and should be buried deep enough so that they cannot be dug up by animals or gotten at by insects. A spade is also useful in putting out permanently camp fires which may set fire to fields and forests.

privileges without their fathers’ capacity for service.” He finds the summa felictus in personal achievement. He deplores the grading of character and ability “by a Tammany Hall or a bolshevist party or some other form of tyranny.” “When he wrote this, there was no thought of his becoming a candidate for President in 1928, or that a man who, as William Allen White puts it, is “wedded to Tammany and proud of his unholy alliance,” would be his opponent in that campaign. Hoover need make no quest of leadership in the questionable byways of Tammany, or any such organization anywhere. He can find it, and has found it already, in the freely-grinding mills of competition, Jjor, as he says, “leadership is a, quality of the individual,” and “democracy must stimulate leadership from its own ranks.” Such leadership “can not be replenished by selection like queen bees, by divine right or bureaucracies.” Let the demagogue feed on mob emotion, taking his claim to leadership from emotion, rather than from intellect and progress and achievement. Hoover never will advance such a claim. His beliefs on individual opportunity can be summed up in a single sentence of his own creation: “We adopted the ideal of equality of opportunity—the fair chance of Abraham Lincoln.” It is a surety that, during the campaign just now put under way, the figure of Herbert Hoover, the great advocate and exponent of individual rights, will emerge with steadily increasing clarity. (Hammond Times) Farm leaders who have been pointing to Governor Smith as the Moses to lead the agriculturists into the promised land, are more than a little worried over the latest demonstrations In the Democratic camp. It may be that Raskob, of the General Motors Company, who has been made chairman of the Smith committee has a heart full and overflowing with sympathy for the farmers of the country, but his environment does not sustain that thought. Raskob is of the hard pavements, and his only knowledge of farm problems has been gathered in Wall Street, where he has been playing with bulls and bears. The suggestion that Owen D. Young, of the General Electric Company is the Smith choice for Governor of New York also brings another man into the picture whose knowledge of canyons is confined to those in downtown New York, created by the high buildings, and whose farming activities are of the Park Ave. window box variety. The Democrats in this case, after weeping over the plight of the farmer, must be congratulated on their courage or bravado in their selection of experts on city movements, even while they are trying to dry the farm tears.

anapolis primaries last May. This inquiry rests upon charges that frauds were practiced in procuring certain nominations. Among candidates said to have had benefit of such corruption is Ralph E. Updike, renominated for Congress by the Republicans. The charge is made by the man who ran against him. We recall having stated a few weeks ago that if the Marion County grand jury went into the charges of ballot frauds in Indianapolis there doubtless would be found something to reconpense the trouble. Those are some all-fired smart politicians down that way and the Republican machine in Marion County has most of them enlisted. Things have been done in primaries in Indianapolis that show just how smart they are. If Lew Shank were alive he could give the grand jury some interesting facts and figures relating to the way he was counted out of a nomination for mayor, a few years ago, though that would have nothing to do with the matter now in hand. Well, anyway, Judge Collins has asked the new grand jury to go into the May primaries and learn what there may be to learn about that affair. If there were frauds they ought to be uncovered. Marion County grand juries have had much work during the past two years relating to corruption in politics and office. The situation has not been entirely uncovered and cleaned. Perhaps it now will be.

Questions and Answers

What is co-insurance? Insurance in which two or more parties are jointly responsible for any loss which may come upon certain specified property, specifically, a form of insurance in which the insured, in consideration of a reduced rate of premium, agrees to maintain insurance upon his property to a certain extent, say 80 per cent of its actual cash value, and failing to do so becomes his own insurer for the difference, and in case of partial loss is jointly responsible with the insurance company in that proportion. How did Andrew Jackson get the sobriquet “Old Hickory?” It was conferred upon him in 1813 by his soldiers. Parton says: The name “Old Hickory” was not an instantaneous inspiration, but a growth. First of all the remark was made by some soldier, who was struck with his commander’s pedestrian powers, that the general was tough. Next it was observed that he was “tough as hickory.” Then he was called “Hickory." Lastly the affectionate adjective “old” was prefixed. Who wrote “Though the mills of God grind slowly, yet they grind exceeding small; though with patience he stands waiting, with exactness grinds He all”?

KEEPING UP With THE NEWS

BY LUDWELL DENNY WASHINGTON, July 26.—Sandino may be the “patriot'* many Nicaraguans consider him, or he may be the “bandit” the State Department calls him, but one way or the other he is causing the United States Government a lot of trouble. Today the Managua dispatches report an engagement between his troops and bodyguard and a squadron of Yankee Marine planes, in which the Americans bombed the Nicaraguans. That would not be unusual news except that Secretary of the Navy Wilbur just has reported to President Coolidge and to the country that Sandino is practically done for, that he is trying to escape from Nicaragua to Honduras and probably already has succedeed. Wilbur’s optimistic information was based on an official report from the Marines. The now established fact that Sandino is alive and still kicking against American occupation in Nicaragua re.veals the great difficulties under which the Marines are operating in their unsuccessful efforts of fourteen months tp bag the rebel leader. Thanks to the character of the mountainous jungle, the loyalty of the natives in the northern district to the rebels, and the skill of Sandino, the Marines in all sincerity are unable to keep definite tab on Sandino’s strength, his whereabouts, or even the extent of his losses in battles with the Marines. Now that the long rainy season is on, it is almost impossible to carry on the type of military operations which might result in Sandino’s defeat in the field. The Marines are reduced to air raids, which alone cannot accomplish the American purpose of “ending the banditry.” Therefore it is believed that if Sandino gives up or runs out of the country before the fall elections, it will be because of his general discouragement rather than because of any immediate military necessity. tt tt u AS to Sandino's military strength there continues to be much disagreement. At the beginning of the revolt, Colonel Stimson, the President's special commissioner there and the present Governor General of the Philippines, reported that Sandino’s forces numbered only three or four hundred. But soon the marines had captured and killed more than that number, and he still had over 2,000 men in the field. There has been the same conflicting reports about the extent of his arms. But in a pinch he has never seemed to lack either men or munitions. The United States Government Is somewhat encouraged by the “surrender” of several bands of rebels during the last month which total about 600. But there are two reasons why this does not evoke more enthusiasm. First, many of these may be professional bandits looking for safety rather than- Sandlnistas as they claim. Secondly, they did not in most cases surrender their arms, they came in unarmed. This raises the suspicion that the rebels are storing their arms in safe places and going into the towns for food and comfort during the rainy season, preparatory to joining Sandino again when military oi*rations are possible. To meet this emergency, and any other which may be created by the native campaign and election, the United States has increased its force to nearly 6,000 marines. The cost of keeping these marines in Nicaragua is estimated at about $300,000 a month, in addition to the expense for naval vessels in constant use in connection with the occupation. tt tt a DESPITE these military operations, the State Department maintains that this Government is not in a state of actual war with the Nicaraguan revolutionists, and that therefore the Administration is not guilty as charged by a minority group in Congress of unconstitutionally fighting a war without the consent of Congress. The State Department insists that both major groups in Nicaragua, the Conservatives and Liberals, accepted the Stimson “pacification” terms of dino by failing to join in that agreement became an outlaw. Under the Stimson terms, American Marines are to guarantee a fair election of a successor to President Diaz. Diaz, formerly a bookkeeper of an American firm, who was raised to the presidency during the first American intervention, was recognized by the United States after his friend Chamorro had overthrown the constitutional government In which the Liberal Sacasa was vice president. Sacasa’s claim to the government was recognized by Mexcio and supported by such Americans as Senator Borah. In the Stimson settlement which “ended” the civil war, one group of Liberals under General Moncada laid down their arms but neither Eacasa himself nor Sandino accepted the Stimson terms. Since then Sandino has led the armed revolt against the Marines as “foreign invaders.”
