Vicious Campaigning Those responsible for the injection of Billy Sunday into Indiana politics may have much to answer for. To say the least, his appeal to religious prejudice is a far cry from the doctrines of brotherhood oij man taught by the Man of Gallilee and quite as far from the spirit of Americanism of those who founded this republic and dedicated it to liberty, religious as well as political. The sale of antLCatholic literature outside the Sunday meeting suggests a plan to appeal to the old hates which were stirred by Stephenson. The people will do well to remember that every great Republican leader, Hoover, Coolidge, Taft, Roosevelt, Borah, Hughes, have denounced the injection of religious prejudice into politics as the most un-American of practices. * The bringing of Sunday to this city seems to fit well with the strategy of those who have charge of the campaign of Harry Leslie—and that does not mean the state committee. There have been unmistakable signs that the campaign for Leslie depends very much on stirring up hates and prejudices. There was no point, of course, in bringing Sunday here to campaign against Smith. This state is for Hoover, rather unmistakably. Not even the most ardent of Smith opponents would have any fear if the result were left to Indiana. But there is a very plain and profound belief that the people intend to clean up the Statehouse and get rid of its shame. It is quite evident that the people want to forget the bad nightmare that came with Stephenson and is continued with Coffin and Jackson. Those intent on meeting Leslie are engaged in a double campaign. Into communities where they believe Smith to be unpopular, they are sending literature to prove a very close intimacy between Dailey and Smith. Into circles that are very ardent for Smith, the? are sending the word that Dailey should be scratched because he has not made his entire campaign on national issues, and this latter propaganda is often cloaked in words that are calculated to arouse religious prejudices. The effort, of course, is damnable. It should be resented. Most of all, the people cf this state should .refuse to lend themselves to the schemes of those who would start conflagrations of religious hatreds in the closing days of this campaign. The issues are plain and clear. And in neither state nor nation does religion figure as one of them. A New League of Nations? Shall the present League of Nations be scrapped and anew one set up in its place, with all the little nations left out? This novel question has been suggested by Ralph D. Blumenfeld, distinguished editor of the powerful London Daily Express and head of the British journalistic mission now visiting America under auspices of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. The present league, Editor Blumenfeld believes, is just an overgrown debating society, breeding the very dangers it is supposed to suppress. At the same time, he charges, it is hampered fatally by a cumbersome constitution and the presence of a lot of small nations whose votes are as potent as those of France or Great Britain. “My own views of a League of Nations,” he said in an interview to be found elsewhere in this newspaper, “is a spontaneous agreement between Great Britain and the United States, France, Italy, Germany, and Japan, without elaborate treaties ... to see to it that each looks after its own affairs and that there is no aggression on the part of the minor states.” Above all, the editor holds, the United States and Britain should shake hands and co-operate for world peace. That the existing League of Nations is too much of a debating society, and that much of its effectiveness is' spoiled by its own cumbersomeness, there can be no doubt. Its real aim is to prevent war, particularly another world war, and it should stick to its knitting. Many of the sociological and 'political problems with which it is prone to deal would settle themselves very nicely if the world could continue to live on in peace long enough. But there is another side to the question. The problems and grievances brought up in the league meetings at Geneva are going to exist whether the weaker nations are in the league or out of it. If they can be aired there, it serves to lessen the tension and unrest among the small countries. Letting off steam is necessary if explosions are to be prevented, and the Geneva league thus becomes a sort of safety valve. Anew league composed of only the six great powers named by Editor Blumenfeld automatically would lock out some two-thirds of the population of the globe. Left voiceless, they at once would begin an agitation leading to an ultimate revolt and the more the big six attempted to sit on them, the fiercer the opposition would grow. Moreover, any league of nations must derive most of its strength from world opinion and a league that started out by shutting the door on a majority of the peoples of the world would have popular opinion and suspicion against it from the outset. As for the great powers giving themselves the mandate to keep the smaller nations at peace, we seriously doubt if the scheme would work. Europe already has tried to'keep the Balkan States apart, but what usually happened was the big powers fell out among themselves until 1914 came and with It the World war. The western hemisphere, represented In the big six league only by the United States, presumably would be kept in order by the United States. We say presumably, because of the Monroe doctrine. Ultimately, our tutelage would be thrown off, for already the Pan-American demand is for co-operation rather than one-power control, however humanitarian and beneficial that control may be. For some time now we have been trying to keep the peace in Hayti and Nicaragua, with the result that our relations with the rest of Latin America today are at low ebb. . * It seems to us that with all its manifest disadvantages, regional co-operation, and even world co-opera, tion, the little with the big, the weak with the powerful, is the key to world peace if we may be permitted the optimism to believe in such a thing. 1 As to Editor Blumenfeld's central thought, how-eyer-i-the idea of the English speaking world co-oper.

ating for peace and prosperity—there can be no two ways of looking at that. Alone they can pretty much keep the world at peace. But first they must learn to understand and to trust each other—which recent events, the cruiser business, for example, indicate they are not yet prepared to do. Blue Book and White Paper Publication of the notes anent the secret naval accord between France and England finally and officially reveals the maneuver as the most monumentally stupid diplomatic performance of recent times. The documents, published in a French “blue book” and a British “white paper,” prove conclusively what this newspaper already has contended, namely that Britain and France attempted to thimblerig the United States into accepting permanent and definite inferiority on the high seas. As serious as an indicated revival of the old en. tente between England and France may be from a European point of view, anew alliance, left-handed or otherwise, between these two countries does not concern us. Germany and Italy, no doubt, will have much to say on that subject. But when Britain agrees to back France’s military program on the continent in exchange for France’s support of her bid for naval supremacy over the United States, that becomes a horse of another shade. We already have published details of the agreement. We shall not go into it here. In substance it' was to limit the type of warships which the United States requires for the national defense, while leaving absolutely unlimited the type of craft Britain finds best suited to her requirements as ruler of the waves. Then, doubtless at London’s prompting, France instructed her ambassador at Washington to inform the United States of the plan and urge immediate acceptance thereof as a basis of anew naval limitation. He further was instructed to emphasize the point that leaving dimited all small cruisers would give the United States a chance to “catch up with Britain” if it desired to do so. Was ever anything so naive! The most amazing part of the whole business is that any sane statesman could possibly have imagined for one moment that America would accept any such ridiculous proposition. It is far from flattering to us that any one could have thought we would be so dumb. , That Britain would like for us to agree to the scheme, however, is perfectly comprehensible. She possesses a chain of naval bases stretching y clear around the world and into every quarter of the globe. Cruisers, say of 6,000 tons or thereabouts, armed with six-inch guns, would be ideal for her. While the United States, with no such base facilities, would be well-nigh helpless if we had to depend upon such small craft. We need the larger cruiser, with its wider steaming radius. Running through both blue book and white paper Is the suggestion that France and England would like to find some formula for naval limitation with which America could agree. To us this seems like a man struggling to find the end of his ow.i nose. For seven years the American formuln has been right under their eyes and no fairer could be hit upon, however hard they may try. Having limited battleship and aircraft carrier tonnage by the treaty of Washington, the United States proposes to limit auxiliary craft in exactly the same way. Some 300,000 tons has been mentioned tentatively as a possible total fqr cruisers, Britain being allowed to use her tonnage building a whole swarm of medium size craft if she cares to, while America, exercising the same privilege, would build larger cruisers.

Victory Over Disease No. 190

LOUIS PASTEUR’S shrewd guess that microbes were the cause of many diseases marks the turning point not only in his own scientific career but the turning point in the progress of medicine and surgery. Anew day of effectiveness and success in the battle against disease was ushered ip when Pasteur came to the conclusion that the tiny living things which the microscope reveals—we call them bacteria today—were at the bottom of a great deal of human misery and suffering. Let us summarize briefly, therefore, Pasteur’s career

ergies to chemistry, achieving world-wide fame by his discovery of the nature of the crystals of tartaric acid. He showed that there were two kinds of crystals, one a right-handed crystla and the other a left-handed one. The two were mirror-images of each other, like a person’s right and left hand. But Pasteur’s interest was suddenly shifted from chemistry to microbe-hunting when the alcohol distiling of Lille appealed to him for aid. Fermentation was not going on properly in some of the vats in which sugar-beet pulp was used to make alcohol. Pasteur undertook to discover what wrong. First he verified the conclusion of De La Tour that yeast was a living growing thing—yeasts are classed today as fungi—and showed that it was the action of the yeast which turned the sugar into alcohol. Next he showed that a microbe was the cause of the “sick” vats failing to produce alcohol. It caused the formation of lactic acid and is the same bacteria to be found in sour milk. Pasteur was then called back to the famous school where he had studied, the Ecole Normale, as administrator and director of scientific studies. Back in Paris, he turned an old attic room into a laboratory, filled with it microscopes, flasks, incubating ovens and other apparatus and resumed the study of microbes. . The old idea had ari en once more that microbes came to life spontaneously from air. By a series of brilliant experiments, Pasteur proved that this was not so. The microbes were carried by the dust of the air, so he proved, but microbes, like .ill other living things, had to have parents. And then, he cam to his conclusion that microbes were responsible for disease. Pasteur was now at the beginning of his greatest work, _

M. E. TRACY SAYS: “Smith’s Greatest Strategic Mistake in This Campaign Was His Attempt to Capture the Progressive Vote of the Midwest.”

SENATOR NORRIS, Republican, of Nebraska, comes out for Governor Smith. The United Press said he would several weeks ago. For a time it looked as though the United Press had made a mistake. Now it looks as though the senator might have intended to do so all along, but held off, or was held off, to play a trump card toward the end of the game. Some of Governor Smith’s admirers are fond of recalling how he invariably wins in the last two weeks, and profess to see the same old strategy in this latest sensation. Turning to the other side of the picture, it is possible that Hoover felt something of the sort coming when he charged "our opponents” with state socialism at Madison Square Garden last Monday night, leaving it for Senator Norris to prove the point. ss ss ss Downright Ownership Senator Norris says that Governor Smith comes nearer his own ideas of what should be done about water power and farm relief than Herbert Hoover. By way of clarifying those ideas, he points out what the federal government might have done to develop the Columbia river, and what the people of the northwest .have lost because it failed. As if that were not enough, he goes into the question of costs, monopoly and other general phases of the power question to such an extent as leaves little room for doubt of what he has in mind. Senator Norris favors not only retention of power sources by the federal government, but their exploitation. He would be glad to see the government build plants not only at Muscle Shoals and Boulder Dam, but in hundreds of other places. It is not a case of national defense or flood control in his mind, but of anew and fundamental policy—a policy which would put the federal government in the power business, not as a lessor or regulator, but as owner, operator and distributor. a tt a How Far Will A! Go? Senator Norris is about as radical, or progressive, if you prefer, with regard to farm relief. He favors the McNary-Haugen bill, lock, stock and barrel. Buying up and marketing surplus crops through a federal board and federal funds has no terror for him. Neither has the equalization fee. Senator Norris is firmly committed to such measures as policies, no matter how definitely they put the federal government in business, or what change they imply in its basic principles. That phase of his attitude is easy enough to understand. Thousands of honest, intelligent Americans feel the same way. But where did he get the idea that Governor Smith would go all, or even half way, with him? tt tt tt Both Wrong Herbert Hoover made a ridiculous charge when he insinuated that Governor Smith advocated policies calculated to bring on state socialism. The same is true of Senator Norris’ interpretation of Governo’Smith’s attitude. Governor Smith has taken great pains to leave no misunderstanding in the public mind with regard to this subject. He has said very plainly that he thought power sources owned by the public should be retained, but when it came U> the question of their development he has been very careful to emphasize his preference for the states, rather than the federal government, wherever it was possible and practical for them to undertake it. With regard to farm relief, the Republicans have shouted nothing more continuously than that Governor Smith never has committed himself further than to say he was for the McNary-Haugen bill In principle, though not necessarily in mechanics. tt a a Gain and Loss Governor Smith draws his chief support, especially in the east, from elements that are opposed to Senator Norris’ ideas. This makes the latter’s indorsement of doubtful value. Senator Norris is admittedly a popular man in Nebraska, as well as in several adjoining states. He is respected and admired throughout the country. When it comes to political doctrines, however, he has not a very large following in this section of the country. If the east wants one thing more than another, it is less government, not only in business, but in several other respects. Smith’s popularity in the east is based largely on the fact th&t it believes he would do what he could to bring about less government. Senator Norris, on the other hand, wants nothing so much as more government. tt n u Smith’s 'Great Error’ Governor Smith’s greatest strategic mistake in this campaign was his attempt to capture the so-called progressive vote of the midwest. That vote has little in common with his political ideals. He believes in state rights, local self-government, decentralization and individual liberty, just as firmly as does Herbert Hoover. He invokes public control of business only as the last resort, and even then he would rather see it exercised by the states and municipalities than by the federal government. His whole campaign has centered around this idea. What is of more immediate consequence, his party, his personal following and the independents who have rallied to his support are wedded to these self-same principles, for all of which, Senator Norris has little use. ,

up to this point. Pasteur was born in 1822 at Dole, France. He was educated in various schools finally completing his education at the Ecole Normale, the famous normal school of Paris. There he was fascinated by the lectures of Dumas, the professor of chemistry. He devoted all his en-

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

BY DR. MORRIS FISHBEIN, Editor Journal of th* American Medical Association and of llyeeia, the Health Magazine. PUGILISTS know the condition that results from a terrific pounding in the prize ring in which the recipient of the mauling suddenly finds himself unable to move his legs, dizzy, or as it is commonly expressed, “out on his feet.” Dr. Harrison S. Marland recently read before the Pathologic Society of New York a discussion of the condition called “punch drunk.” which the fighters themselves all characterize by the terms “cuckoo,” “goofy,” “cutting paper dolls,” or “slug nutty.”

XJENNSYLVANIA miners, adopting Mussolini’s idea, passed a resolution against young men going bareheaded, because it hurt the hat industry, but the barbers will be in favor of the rustom, because it preserves hair to cut. But even if one goes bareheaded, it wards off the imputation of being a freak for one to carry a hat.

BY FABYAN MATIIEY DIAMONDS are trumps and South has the lead. North and South must win all five tricks against a perfect defense. * tt Lay out the cards on a table as .hown in the diagram. Study out each hand and figure out how you would solve this problem. Then look at the solution and see if you have done it right. There is only one way in which North and South can get all five tricks. Can you find it?

THIS problem requires a rather clever unblocking play for a correct solution. South leads the queen of clubs, and North plays the seven. South next leads a heart, which North trumps with the four. North now leads the ace of trumps, and South discards his last losing heart. Now South leads the deuce of clubs, and South, wiih the jack and the five, finesses through East’s nine and four. The solution to this hand depends entirely upon North’s unblocking of the club suit at the first trick. If North had played the deuce instead of the seven, East would defeat the problem by playing a low club on the fourth trick. South would then have been compelled to overtake the seven with the jack and lead the five to East’s nine. Or, if South had failed to overtake, West’s ace of spades would have taken the final trcik. * (Copyright, 1928, NEA Service, Inc.)

KEEPING UP With THE NEWS

BY LUDWELL DENNY (Copyright. Scripps-Howard Newspapers, 1928) WASHINGTON, Oct. 25.—Defection of Senator George W. Norris of Nebraska, leader of the La Follette progressives, is the worst thing that has happened to Hoover in the campaign. Norris’ swing cannot alone carry the doubtful grain states for Smith. But it has given A1 a fighting chance in that territory for the first time. If Smith should decide unexpect - edly to follow through this initial advantage with a flat statement favoring the McNary-Haugen equalization fee method of farm relief, Hoover would be hard pressed in perhaps a half dozen states. The terms of election, the farm revolt states are only of secondary importance because of their relatively small electoral vote. But if Smith should make a clean sweep of the large-vote doubtful Atlantic seaboard states—which does not now appear probable—the farm revolt states then would become the determining factor. There is one more slight possi - bility, which as yet is in the stage of sheer rumor, that might add to Norris’ defection and make the situation really serious for Hoover. Senator Hiram Johnson, progressive Republican of California and author of the Boulder Dam bill, is reported displeased by Hoover’s failure to commit himself on that bill. If unexpectedly Johnson should bolt Hoover, he might be able in a close election to swing California and put a Democrat in the White House, just as he kept Hughes from the presidency in 1916. All these “ifs” and “buts” simply restate what has been known and repeated from the beginning of the campaign, that Smith to win must “get all the breaks’ and defeat the law of averages. ' it tt u AL has got the two “breaks" so far. He has the popular Franklin D. Roosevelt, the Democratic gubernatorial candidate in New York, which will help him materially to carry his own-state with its fortyfive electoral votes. And now he has won the support of Norris in the west. No one familiar with national politics will discount the value of Norris’ support. First, he has the affection and confidence of the voters in his home state of Nebraska to an almost unique degree. In the last campaign he tried to retire from the Senate, but the voters literally would not let him do so. Second, he is the unchallenged heir of the late Senator La Follette of Wisconsin in the leadership of the bi-party progressive group in congress and their followers. Scouts of all parties, including Socialists, report that Smith already tends to have a stronger hold than Hoover on the 5,000.000 voters who supported La Follette in the last election. Undoubtedly Norris’ position will confirm many La Follettites in their inclination to vote for Smith, and pull many other doubters in the same direction. Third, Norris will join with Smith during this remaining fortnight in fightng Hoover on the ground of the latter’s New York speech attack on the alleged “socialism” of certain progressive measures. This will tend to spread the effect of Norris’ defection beyond the limited farm belt, where he is most influential. tt tt tt DESPITE these and other factors, which show beyond doubt the real value of Norris’ support of Smith, it is highly improbable that they car. put Smith into the White House with additional factors not now in sight. For Hoover roughly has 200 assured electoral votes to little more than 100 for Smith, and the doubtful western states where Norris’ influence is greatest are overwhelmingly dry. The exceptions are Wisconsin and Missouri. In those two states and in Nebraska and Montana, Norris probably has given Smith a slight edge. But Kansas, lowa and Oklahoma will not be shaken. Minnesota and the Dakotas are more doubtful. Most neutral observers report a strong reaction away from Smith because of his alleged equivocating stand on the farm relief equalization fee. It Is as yet too early to gauge the full effect of Norris’ bolt in those three states. At the moment it appears that Smith to win them must add to his Norris strength by coming out flatly for the equalization fee. Naturally, that side of Wall Street backing Smith and his other eastern supporters will not let him tie up to the equalization fee if they can help it.
