Indiana Speaks The people of Indiana have passed judgment upon the state administration. They have rendered a verdict of guilty upon the charge of maladministration and political selfishness. Today there will be an effort to pass the blame to President Iloover. Some small share may be paid to the general protest against the tariff and to present economic conditions. But the vote was too general so to be explained and certainly in the face of the plea of every orator to give a certificate of character to the administration of state affairs, those who now find themselves discredited hardly can claim that the people were ignorant of state affairs. Had such been the case, the wrath of the voter would have been turned solely against candidates for congress. It is more probably true that many of the candidates for congress on the Republican ticket can attribute their defeat to the widespread disgust and disapproval of state affairs than can local or state candidates explain their downfall to the protest against Hoover. Both were unpopular. As between them, it probably veas a horse race in Indiana. The incoming state administration has a wonderful opportunity, especially as it will control the house of representatives in the next legislature. It will require no very deep digging on the part of investigating committees to discover the cause of many of the things which Governor Leslie called “carelessness” in his administration. There also is opportunity for a really constructive program. The first pledge that must be redeemed is the passage of an income tax law. Public sentiment indorsed the law. It will force a more equitable system of raising revenues, relieve the property owner on farms and in cities, and force those who have escaped to help support the government. The second pledge which played no small part was the promise of old age pensions instead of sordid poorhouses for the aged, whose only crime is lack of money. That movement, led by the Fraternal Order of Eagles, can not be forgotten in an hour of victory. It was a pledge to the people to change the laws for caring for the poor that were inherited from the days of Queen Elizabeth. If elections can be lost by political mistakes, perhaps the defeated candidates will ponder on the wisdom of the action of the Republican state committee when it tried to inject religion into politics by paid advertisements, and racial hate by letters upon its own stationery. To the victorious Democrats the people are looking for not only a better administration of public affairs than they have had for years, but for a strong, constructive program of reform of social and economic evils. In that task they will have the best wishes and the support of all good citizens. They will be judged by their success or failure to achieve these results. Progressives Win To say that' Tuesday’s election was a national Democratic landslide is only part of the truth. It also was a great progressive victory. No outstanding progressive was defeated. Many progressives were re-elected, despite unscrupulous tactics by their opponents. And new progressives were added to the list of senators, represntatives and Governors. In most cases in which the election turned on liberal issues, the progressives won. There was a distinct popular mandate for high tariff repeal, against stacking the United States supreme court with John J. Parkers, and in favor of government ownership in communities where power was an issue. There was a cleaning out of several candidates who long had succeeded in making political capital of religious and racial bigotry. Here are some of the progressive victories: Senator Norris of Nebraska, sometimes described as the most valuable single force in national affairs, won over the combined efforts of the Republican machine, the Democratic machine, and the power interests. The unsuccessful attempt to trick him out of the Republican nomination by putting up another “George W. Norris,” an unknown grocery clerk, is well remembered. Senator Couzens, the multi-millionaire Republican progressive from Michigan, took the primary and the election in a walkaway. He is one of the most unfettered and fearless men in the senate, especially effective on issues involving taxation and communications. Senator Walsh of Montana, despite his dry leaning in a tim of rising wet sentiment, was returned. He is the man who led in the Teapot Dome expose and launched the investigation of utility company finances and propaganda. Senator Borah, perhaps the most widely known of the Republican progressive group, was an easy winner. Some point has been made by the conservatives of the fact that two of the progressive senators—Pine of Oklahoma and McMaster of South Dakota—were defeated; and that Schall of Minnesota yet may lose. The answer is that they were defeated by as good, or perhaps better, progressives. Former Senator Gore has a better record than Pine, whom he ousted. Bulow is equal to McMaster, and Hoidale to Schall. Speaking of defeats, the primaries killed off politically some of the worst reactionaries in the senate —such as Grundy of Pennsylvania, Simons of North Carolina, Blease of South Carolina and representatives such as Crampton of Michigan. The election carried this process further along. f nator Heflin of Alabama, clown and leader of regions bigotry, was shelved. Butler lost in kfissachu-

setts, despite the intervention of his old friend, Calvin Coolidge. Representative Ruth Hanna McCormick of Illinois, an extreme chauvinist who spent a third of a million to get the Republican senatorial nomination, was swept to defeat while trying to straddle the prohibition fence. James Ellwood Jones’ wealth in West Virginia could not cancel the opposition of the labor forces, which he has victimized in his anti-labor coal mines. But most spectacular was the defeat of President Hoover’s two special friends. Senator Allen of Kansas and Representative Reece of Tennessee. Allen was Hoover’s hand-picked publicity director in the last campaign, and his election was considered certain because of the normally heavy Republican majority in Kansas. But the voters remembered that Allen represented the administration's unpopular farm policy, and that lie was one of the lonely leaders in the unsuccessful effort to force John J. Parker upon the supreme court. In this connection it should be recalled that Senator McCulloch of Ohio was another who was defeated partly because of his vote for Judge Parker and his anti-labor record. Representative Reece of Tennessee obtained national prominence in the last session of congress by blocking the Norris Muscle Shoals bill, and then by being rewarded by the personal intervention of President Hoover in his favor in the primary fight on this issue. Reece was the only candidate in this election so favored by Hoover. He not only was defeated, but by an independent candidate who entered the race only ten days before election. Among the new liberal senators, the country is apt to hear most in the future from Morrow, New Jersey Republican, and the Democrats, Hull of Tennessee and Costigan of Colorado. Morrow, by his great diplomatic achievement as ambassador to Mexico and by his wet declaration, is expected to assume leadership in foreign affairs and prohibition repeal. Costigan, a former militant member of the tariff commission, and Hull, who has been the most active low tariff advocate in the house, will be key men in the senate fight to repeal the Hawley-Smoot tariff. Jim Ham Lewis of Illinois, Marcus Coolidge of Massachusetts, and Robert J, Bulkley of Ohio, are men of high type, much superior to their predecessors, and senators whose mild liberalism may increase in office. Finally, several leading progressives have won gubernatorial races. Chief among these are La Follette of Wisconsin, Pinchot of Pennsylvania, Meier of Oregon, and the re-election with an unprecedented plurality of Franklin Roosevelt of New York. In every instance, power was one of the major issues. Roosevelt’s power fight as Governor is well known. Pinchot, since the days of the Roosevelt administration, was ranked with Senator Harris as the most vigorous opponents of private power monopoly. He won Tuesday on the Republican ticket in spite of a wholesale desertion by the G. O. P. bosses. Julius L. Meier, one of the largest merchants on the Pacific coast, carried Oregon as an independent candidate on a public ownership platform. Young Phil La Follette’s brilliant race in the primaries against the conservative Governor Kohler, and now his election as Governor beside his brother, Senator Bob La Follette, is perhaps symbolic. For the first time in several years, there seems at least to be a national trend in public opinion toward the progressive principles identified so long with the name La Follette. The newly discovered Schwassman-Wachmann comet just missed hitting the earth by 5,000,000 miles. It would have been just too bad for headline writers had the thing connected. The moralist who pointed out that you can’t do things in halves and succeed failed to take into consideration, apparently, the case of a good football game. Henry Ford is reported saying: “I don’t like to read books. They muss up my mind.” And we always thought he was an advocate of volume production. A modern symphonic composition, entitled "The Ring.” was inspired by a prize fight. Very likely there is a slow movement with much fiddling, to say nothing of long pauses. Now that a bumper grape crop has been produced, expect that grower to boast that things this year have been vine and dandy.

REASON

NOW that the election is over, the losers of childish wagers will proceed to pay up by climbing up trees, hanging from the clothes line by their toes and pushing the winners in wheel barrows. * a a a And the candidates who lost will proceed to tabulate lists of the thousands who promised to give th£m their loyal support, but voted and worked for the other fellow. st a The thing about a .political campaign that alwavs depressed us is the thought of all the Vork that is done and nothing permanent to show for it. But popular government couldn’t go on without it. a tt tt THIS last campaign was a slumber party alongside the old-fashioned contests, yet enough work was done in it to lay a 100-foot pavement clear across the country, and all v. e get out of it is the election of a lot of fellows to office. m tt tt In the old days the amount of labor lost was terrific, burning partisans, neglecting the duties of field, factory and store to whoop it up for their favorites. And they actually though the country would go to the dogs if the other party won. * tt a We regret to note the loss of those gentlemen at Muncie who purchased that anti-freeze solution and then put it into their interiors instead of into their automobile radiators, but they should have known from the many experiments already made that drinking such stuff is net successful. " # M tt SPEAKING of strong liquor, the return of wine and beer would not end all the bootlegging business, for there are many brothers and sisters who crave chain lightning and will not be satisfied with lighter potions. a a a Brookhart rather makes you tired with his proposed plan to expose senators who drink liquor, particularly when you remember that the promised to blow the lid off a booze drinking party in Washington last winter, then failed to make good when put on the witness stand. a a m If Brookhart hasn’t anything more important to do as a United States senator than snoop on his fellow members, he should return m lowa and engage in some useful occupation.

SAYS:-

TVha t Turned, M illions Against the Hoover Administration Was Loss of Faith and Hope. 117 HO killed Cock Robin? ’ * The simplest answer # is "hard times and prohibition.” Republicans like it because it represents them as victims of an unkind fate, but it’s only a half truth. It requires something more than depression to turn people against their leaders. Lock at what Russia is going through today. Look at what a dozen nations w r ent through during the war. Admitting the part played by hunger and thirst in shaping public opinion, hope and faith play a bigger one. What turned millions against the Hoover administration was loss of faith and hope. \ an n The Public-Speaks VV7ELL, that’s enough about ’ ' water that has gone by the mill, the more important point being where do we go from here? Asa general proposition, the Republicans have been given a warning and the Democrats a chance. Because neither party has a working control of the government, each can lie down and pass the buck. On the other hand, each commands sufficient strength to force constructive action. The country has said as plainly as the ballot box permits what it wants. a a a Two ‘Men of the Hour' O EFERRING to some of the more practical details, Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt of New York easily is the man of the hour as far as Democrats are concerned. It is difficult to see how the Democratic party can avoid nominating him for President in 1932, and southern drys might as well reconcile themselves to the probability. By the same token, Dwight W. Morrow is the man of the hour as far as Republicans are concerned, which means a bleak and disappointing prospect, not only for the old guard,, but for Mr. Hoover. With two such wets out in front and with substantial wet gains in both house and senate, the first impulse is to regard the prohibition issue as on a rapid road to settlement. But let’s not be foolishly optimistic. It still is a far cry from the present lineup to an actual wet majority in congress, much less to thirty-six wet states. not Ox Cart System Rules Tl/i"EANWHILE, the congress just elected will not take office until March 4, which means four months more of the same old crowd. Os course, that crowd may take the hint and surprise people, but the chances are that it will go right on straddling, evading, explaining and apologizing. Whatever else may be said of it, the Constitution of the United States has more defects than the eighteenth amendment. Not the least- of them is the provision by which the American electorate is compelled to wait from November till March before its decisions become effective. That provision was all right for an age in which it took a week to get from Boston to Washington, but what is the sense of trying to make an ox cart government fit an automobile civilization? Here are scores of newly elected senators and representatives all dressed up and no place to go. Here are scores of repudiated representatives permitted to run things just as though they hadn’t been repudiated. Here are w.e, the people, absolutely blocked for a third of a year. tt n n v Far Behind Times IT’S ridiculous, when you come to think of it, but it represents a tradition which taints our entire government, which encourages the very smugness and complacency that did so much to cause this particular upheaval, and which makes it peculiarly difficult, to get quick or effective action in cases of emergency. The technique of politics is about forty years behind times in America. There would be a riot if the corner grocery store attempted to function on such methods as we glorify for Washington. A housewife sixteen miles out in the country can get a yeast cake delivered over muddy roads quicker than the federal government can formulate a plan for relieving hungry people, much less deliver the goods Henry Ford could start building anew plant after we had elected a new congress and not only get it finished, but produce 100,000 cars before that congress took office.

PADEREWSKI’S BIRTH November 6

ON Nov. 6.1860, Ignaz Jan Paderewski, Polish pianist, composer and statesman, was born in Podolia, Poland. He began to play the piano at 3 and, at 7, was placed under a local teacher. After studying at Warsaw and Berlin, he went to Vienna, resolved to adopt the career of a virtuoso. There he studied under a compatriot, Leschetizky. At the end of three years, after making his debut in Vienna, he immediately took rank among the foremost pianists of the world. During and after the World war Paderewski took an important part in securing the independence of Poland. He told the Poles in America, “The vision of a strong and independent Poland has always been the lodestar of my existence.”— After signing the treaty of peace in behalf of the newly formed republic he was in 1919 chosen the first premier of Poland. Finding it impossible, however, to conclude peace with the Soviet government, Paderewski resigned after a short ‘enure of office. He then resumed his. career as a pianist, taking up his residence in California. At present he is on a concert tour of this country.

Sleeping Bag Solves Baby Problems

This is the second of two articles by Dr. Fishbein on the proper clothing for infants. BY DR. MORRIS FISHBEIN Editor Journal of the American Medical Association and of Hygeia, the Health Magazine. TN a consideration of the clothing -*■ to be worn by the infant, Dr. Charles Hendee Smith points out that the usual shirt, band, and petticoat of wool often are too warm; with the addition of slips, dresses, sacques or sweaters, the number of sleeves to be pulled on and off is a problem for both the nurse and the baby. Except in quite cold weather, he believes an infant does not require more than one layer of wool for purpose of warmth. Doctor Smith emphasizes especially the manner in which the infant’s bed is made up. A bed made up like that of an adult does not keep the infant properly warm, because the bedding rarely covers the arms and shoulders and is easily kicked off. A visit to almost any hospital ward will show several babies uncovered and chilled. The addition

IT SEEMS TO ME

I WENT to New York’s municipal lodging house, intending to stay for the night, but things did not work out precisely as they had been planned. Something went wrong with the interpretation err the makeup, and as soon as people began calling me by name and saying, “This way, if you please,” it was quite evident that there was no chance to observe a fair cross section of the homeless or the manner in which they are received. But it worked for a little while. And during that period I was impressed with the uncanny accuracy of Maxim Gorky’s findings as expressed in “The Lower Depths.” We, too, were in a cellar. Although wintry rigors are as yet no more -•than hints, the city’s shelter was crowded to the doors by 10 o’clock, and we became a part of the basement shift. It was possible to carry on free and frank discussion with fellow lodgers, even though an attendant had already winked and said, “You’re fatter than your picture in the paper.” n n n Another Day GORKY, in his great drama, said that even the most hopeless down-and-out is supported by some dream and vision of release and happy haven. Most of the men in the city’s cellar wait for a special ship to scud in with flood tide. There was one in rags and tatters who spoke of his chance to win some portion of a huge estate in litigation. Another needed nothing more than safe conduct to' Cleveland before he once, again should be sitting pretty. To each man there lay somewhere beyond the horizon’s rim an earthly Eldorado all his own. It can not be said truthfully that those whq avail themselves of the city’s charity leave hope behind. One acquaintance of the evening told me that, though he had been to the lodging house many times, he never had given his right name and never would. He thought that this was true of most of the others, i And when I asked him why, he said, '“You don’t think that when I’ve got my pile I w r ant ’em to have me down in their books.” 1 u n More Tragic ON the surface, the mood of th£ bereft is less gloomy than might reasonably be expected. Yet that merely heightens the tragedy of the jobless, for to even a casual listener it was evident that there was not a shade of any substance in the dreams to which they hitched their hopes. He will not get his share of that estate, and it’s a long trail to Cleveland for any one who jingles not so much as a penny when he walks. These men .who can not keep actual starvation farther away than a fingertip should be consummate realists, and yet they remain sentimental r®ymcers—every one. Abject pf r-ty is the opiate of

of more sweaters and coats does not compensate for the failure to keep the shoulders covered. The experience of mankind has led to an almost universal practice in the matter of beds. Adults take off all their clothes put on a single layer of thin cloui, and get into an air chamber made by sheets and blankets. If this were not the best way to keep warm, it would not be a general custom. Adults do not put on many layers of clothing and leave the arms and shoulders out. Why should the infant be dresesd in that way? To solve this problem, many methods of bed making have been tried on private and hospital patients. The sleeping bag seems the best solution. The one in use at present is a piece of cloth folded to open in the front, sewed across the top over each shoulder, leaving four inches for the neck. Tapes on the corners tie to the crib rods. The width of the bag is that of the crib. It is somewhat longer than the’- infant. The material is sheeting, canton flannel, French

At supper time my newspaper friend and companion,, made some remark about “Hoover prosperity,” and one of the frustrated apross the table speke up sharply to say, “Hoover couldn’t help it.” He followed that observation with a defense of things as they are, which might readily have constituted a column for Calvin Coolidge.

Editor Times—l read with interest the letter of Mrs. W. K. in The Times Thursday. She hit the truth all, the way. There surely is something wrong in town and sta*e. How about school books for thrte children in common school and one in second-year high school costing around $23? How about a divorced widow trying to take care of a family of five on $22 a week, having to buy these'books? She gets sl2 support from th father; no more.

The baby wears the bag day and night up to 4 months of age, when the use of the hands begins, and after this for his nap at night up to 2 or 3 years of age. He is free to kick and move his arms about in the bag. He can be put in either the' prone or the supine position and learns to turn over in it at will.- The diaper can be changed without removing the bag, and he can be fed in it. The bag keeps him from scratching his face, prevents thumb-suck-ing and kicking off the bedding. Blankets may be put on over it and will stay on. The bag may be useo in place of a dress, the infant wearing only a diaper and shirt under it; in very hot weather even the shirt may be omitted. The baby becomes accustomed to sleeping with his shoulders covered and will remain covered when he is old enough to sleep without the bag.

SCIENCE

-BY DAVID DIETZ-

Star § Can Be Counted, Belief of Astronomers. ONE of the great alms of modem astronomy, ami an essential prelude to a complete understanding of the stellar universe, is a census of the stars. It 1.; a task upon which astronomers have been working since 1887, the year In which plans for a great international photographic chart and catalog of stars werer launched by the astronomers of the world. Though the work has been going faster in recent years, much remains to be done. To the average layman, particularly one who irecalls the poet's remark about the countless stars, the task seems infinite. And indeed, if the poet were right, the task would be endless. But fortunately the poet is not quite correct. The stars are not countless. On a clear moonless night, the stars :n the sky do seem countless. But patient astronomers, even in ancient times, succeeded in counting them. The number of stars visible to the unaided eye in both the northern and southern hemisphere totals about 6,000. The ancients devised a system of grading these stars, which, with some changes still is in use. The brightest stars are known as the first magnitude stars. There are about twenty of these. The next grade is known as second magnitude stars, and so on. Stars just visible to the unaided eye are known as the sixth magnitude stars. tt u b The Milky Way T T OWEVER. the invention of the telescope Introduced anew problem. The little telescope which Galileo first turned upon the heavens in 1610 was capable of revealing the existence of about 500,000 stars. It also revealed the true nature of the Milky Way. To the unaided eye, the Milky Way seems like a misty, faintly luminous streak of cloud stretching across the sky. But the telescope revealed that the Milky Way was a vast aggregation of stars. Each time that astronomers succeeded in building a more powerful telescope, it revealed more stars. The faintest stars visible to the unaided eye are known as sixth magnitude stars. The faintest stars visible in the 100-inch telescope at Mt. Wilson, the largest telescope now u: existence, are twenty-first magnitude stars. It is estimated that there are more than a billion stars within range of the great Mt. Wilson telescope. By now, perhaps, the layman will be ready to side with the poet. It does begin to look as though the stars were countless. The 200-inch telescope now under construction undoubtedly will reveal still more stars. Is this not an endless process? Astronomers think that the answer is no. u tt n Cloud of Stars npHE range in brightness between -*• stars of different magnitudes is such that each grade is 2.52 times as bright as the magnitude which follows: That is, a star of the first magnitude is 2.52 times as bright as one of the second magnitude, a second magnitude star is 2.52 times as bright as a third magnitude one, and so on. It can be shown, therefore, from the laws of optics that if the stars were distributed uniformly through space, there ought to be 3.98 times as many stars of each magnitude as there are of the preceding ones. That is, there ought to be 3.98 times as many second magnitude stars as first magnitude stars; there ought to be 3.98 times as many third magnitude stars as there as second magnitude ones, and so on. New studies of the heavens have failed to reveal this ratio of increase. For the brighter stars, the rate of increase is about three-fold. Th>s Is less than the required theoretical ratio, which is almost four-fold. And as we approach the fainter stars, the rate of increase gradually becomes smaller and smaller. Astronomers feel that only one logical conclusion can be drawn from these facts, namely, that we are not dealing with an infinite number of stars scattered through space, but with a definite aggregation or organization of stars. It is an indication, say the astronomers, that we are in the midst of a limited cloud of stars.
