Hoosier Vagabond
WILLIAMSBURG, Va. Nov. 11.—On the way here, we spent the night at Winston-Salem, N. C. And there one of those little tragedies happened which can color a person’s feeling about his fellowman for the rest of his life. I smoke Bull Durham toim bacco. It seems that Bull Durham is made in North Carolina. If seems they should be selling it on the street corners in North Carolina. But—they aren’t. The hotel cigar stand had none. A nearby pool room had none. A fruit-and-magazine stand had none. They not only had none, . they didn’t seem to know about it. At a drugstore I got my first nibble. “Bull Durham?” the young man said, as he started to look. . “That's chewing tobacco, is't it?” : “No is isn’t,” I said. “It's one of the best known smoking tobaccos in the world. And it's made right hére in your home state.” “Yes 1 guess I have heard of it,” he said. Went to a football game at Durham once.” Still, they had ne Bul Durham. Shattered, but still game, I went to another drugstore. “Have you got Bull Durham?” I asked. ~ The clerk pulled open the little shelf-door behind the counter. A large stack of Bull Durham was inside. I could see it. The young man looked studiously and intently at the Bull Durham sacks. And then he turned back to me and said: “No, we haven't got any.” So I took out my shilalah, knocked off his hand, stuffed my pockets, full of his Bull Durham and. ran. The singular ignorance of Bull Durham's existence An Winston-Salem might possibly be due to the fact that Camels and Prince Albert tobacco are made there. But somehow, from the looks on people's faces, 1 doubt it goes that deep.
Return to Williamsburg
Williamsburg has changed a lot since we were last here three years ago. For one thing, many more buildings have been restored by the Rockefellers. For another, more and more people are coming to see them, and the city is packed. But worst of all, the Jeanine old Williamsburg Inn Annex has been torn own.

MONDAY, NOV. 11, 1940
By Ernie Pyle
When we registered at the new Lodge, which replaced it, I remarked that we felt sad when we drove past and saw only an empty lot where the Annex used to be. We had spent a delightfully serene and happy vacation there. “We all felt sad when it came down,” the clerk said. Williamsburg is a phenomenon in American’ life. Once 1it was a tremendously important Colonial city. Then it suddenly just went to sleep. And there it slept until John D. Rockefeller came along some 10 years ago, and started building it up again as it once was. Today half of the city has been rebuilt or remodeled to look as it did a century and a half ago. The townspeople, have wisely fallen in with the idea, and much of the private building in recent years has been done in the same style of architecture.
The Bumper Problem
This morning I was looking out the window. It was cold, and a woman driving a car had got it out into the street. Then the engine died, and she couldn't get it started. A Negro chauffeur in a great black limousine pulled up behind and started pushing her. The very first shove, and their bumpers were locked. It took 15 minutes and the help of six people to get those cars unlocked. The chauffeur finally wound up by pushing her down the street by hand. All of which brings forth a quarrel I've had with auto makers for a long time. Why are bumpers the way they are? Thousands of bumpers are being locked like that every day in this country. Need America be subject to all this agony and irritation and wasted time? If we can’t have better bumpers, let's have no bumpers at all. If the bumper-makers can do no better than this, let's throw the rascal out. The solution is so simple it's silly. Just make all auto bumpers exactly the same height from the ground, and stop rounding them so they’ll lift up over each other. y I'll bet if we were to look into this thing, there is some hidden reason why bumper-makers want thousands of bumpers hooked every day. Let's investigate now. Tomorrow may be too late. By tomorrow all the cars in America may be hooked together.

ALL OVER BUT THE recounting, the election has stirred up some intriguing speculative gossip ahout the Mayoralty race two years hence. The talk hinges on possible candidates on both sides of the political fence. Although Sheriff Al Feeney has never mentioned it, either, by direction or indirection, there seems to be a pretty general feeling that he will toss his hat into the Mayoralty ring when the time comes. The Feeney supporters point to his vote-getting ability and keep wanting to know who else the Democrats have if you rule out the Sheriff. For the moment at least, no names have been put forward. Mayor Sullivan didn’t want the job this time, doesn’t want it another term and right now it seems a pretty safe bet that he wouldn't hear of being a candidate again, On the Republican side, the gossips see Herman Wolf as the most likely candidate, although the important point of whether he wants to run is being overlooked. Mr. Wolf's virtues, to the Republican camp, are three-fold: (1) He ran remarkably well against the best possible Democratic candidate, Mr. Sullivan; (2) he conducted an extraordinarily vigorous campaign last time out, a la Willkie; and (3) the most important, he is the close and good friend of Republican kingpin Joseph J. niels. If Mr. Wolf does run, don’t be surprised, if the Democrats start casting eyes at Judge Russell J. Ryan,

Washington
WASHINGTON, Nov. | 11.—Indications that the weight of the Administration will be thrown against any proposals, such as the one advocated by Herbert Hoover, for sending American food to Europe are becoming more clear. It i a delicate question, involving| natural humanitarian impulses, \not to mention the also natural desire of many in the agricultural belt to find some outlet for food surpluses. So far the Administration has had nothing to say. | But Mrs. Roosevelt has given the cue, ference after the election, she was asked about the matter. She replied that the blockade on food sent tol children in France presented a very grave problem. It geemed, she said, terrible not to feed children if they were hungry. But Mrs. osevelt added, war is a terrible thing and she did) not believe we could ask nations fighting for their very lives to take any step which they felt might endanger their chances for victory. To put it in plainer language, Mrs. Roosevelt does not believe that the British should be asked to lift the blockade to permit the feeding of peoples now under German conquest, |
White Committee Opposed
Further indication of the Administration's probable course is found in the firm opposition to the Hoover proposal on the part of the William Allen White Committee for Aid to Britain. | This group and others of similar nature have been busy lining up opposition. White himself stated the case sharply a few days ago in a statement which was smothered under election news. Fiz said proposals to feed the peoples of occupied areas were dangerous both to England and to the United States. He holds that Germany is to blame for the condition of continental Europe and that it must not be permitted to shift the blame to the British blockade.
My Day
NEW YORK, Sunday.—Friday evening I attended the National Urban League. I am always impressed by the continuing and faithful interest shown by Dr. William J. Schifflin, Judge| Ulman of Baltimore and Hollister Wood, together with many others, in the work of this organization. I think § the Urban League has done much through |the years Lo improve the conditions for the colored people and to. create better understanding between colored and white people throughout the country. All ose of both races who have worked so earnestly together deserve our interest and gratitude. , We are interested in democracy and belleve that the success of democracy depends upon the rights of every individual citizen ; being recognized everywhere in the country. This will come only through patient work. : It is most interesting to find how many people "were deeply impressed by the prayer which the President, read the night before|election. There must be a hunger in men's souls for a spiritual note even in such mundane things as political speeches. During the course of the last few days, a taxicab driver, our superintendent in the apartment house, my maid, a college professor and various other people have. told me that such an ending to the campaign wiped out . bitterness and gave them hope.

sooner in order to get a little extra publicity. Incidentally, he thought he'd call the Police Department, too, to allay any fears in that quarter since the worried bluecoats had gone to the trouble of ripping down all the notices. *
How to Keep Speed Down
ONE OF OUR LOCAL taxicab companies has the traffic law enforcement problem all but whipped now. The new cabs are equipped with automatic horns, which start blowing loudly when the speedometer touches 40 miles an hour. . . . The sudden change in the weather was highly unpopular with one group in town today—the members: of the Indiana Astronomical Society. They've been making plans for some time to watch “the transit of Mercury” between the earth and the sun at 2:49 this afternoon. . . . Unless a miracle happens, it’s going to take some doing to see anything in the heavens at 2:49 today.
Big, Brave Hunter!
FROM TIME TO TIME, we get assurances from the state's naturalists that the sandhill crane, one of the 10 birds in America most nearly extinct, is on the increase in Indiana. The other day, for instance, they counted 216 in one flock at Jasper-Pulaski State Game Preserve. They have hopes of inducing the cranes to nest in Indiana. Naturally, these birds now are protected by law. Once, however, they were a prized game bird and very good eating. Which brings us up to a minor woodland tragedy we heard of the other day. Two Indianapolis youths were in a woods near town and saw a flock of birds flying rather high. From somewhere they heard a rifle crack and they saw one of the birds fall. When they reached the fallen bird they could not identify it. But, later, a competent bird man did. It was a sandhill crane, victim of an idle and wasted pot-shot by.a lover of hunting—but not of birds.
By Raymond Clapper
“Furthermore,” said White, “the American public must be aware of the danger that their humanitarian instincts can be used as a front for appeasement propaganda. Let Germany come to the world admitting her guilt and undoing the economic evils of her savage pillage before she asks for help from America.” White said the one fixed principle must be that under no circumstances should American public opinion urge the British to weaken their blockade. There you have the crux of what may become a much de--bated issue during the next few months. 2 The blockade, White believes, is one of Britain’s weapons for final defeat of Germany and as such it is a weapon for America’s defense as well.
Up to Churchill
“The blockade is a matter of military tactics,” he says, “and in this war England has a right to ask and America to'insist that such tactics come first, and must be continued until the Germans have undone the wrongs they have visited upon these conquered peoples and have pledged and fulfilled their pledges to give back the stolen food Germany has taken as the booty of her ruthless invasion.” White made one qualification. He said that if Churchill is willing to make exceptions and indicate where food or medical supplies safely can be sent, the United States should take advantage of such excepHons, providing American officials administer such relied. “But today,” White said, “we believe that judgment of such a situation should be entirely in the hands of the British.” I give special attention to the attitudes of these groups because although they are private propaganda agencies, they are serving in reality as fronts for the Administration. They send up the trial balloons. They develop the public support in advance of official action. They are working in close and sympathetic understanding with Washington and should be regarded virtually as an unofficial arm of the Government although without in any sense committing the Government. It is a good rule of thumb just now to watch what they say with the expectation that if they win sufficient popular approval, the Government is likely to adopt the policy officially.

But museums can not be the only market for an artist's wares and we must realize that many things are made to live with in our homes and not to be housed in museums. I lunched with the United Parents Associations of New York City, and was delighted to have a chance to see .the Mayor for a few minutes. Then I drove to Beacon to attend the wedding of my friend, Miss Jane Bretf, and returned to New York City in time to see Miss Jane Wyatt, whom I have known for many years, in “Quiet Please.” The play is very light. Hollywood life may be interesting to those who live it, but it does not seem to have much “quiet” when portrayed on the stage. Jane Wyatt is charming, however, and I was in the mood to be amused, so, on the whole, I had a pleas-

Vote Uniformity Almost Wipes Out State Lines, Gallup Reports
By Dr. George Gallup PRINCETON, N. J., Nov. 11.—An analysis of the election returns reveals many curious trends and interesting sidelights for the student of political his-
tory. In a year which saw the Democratic popular majority reduced from 62.5 per cent to 54.5 per: cent throughout the nation and the trend in most states sharply toward the conservative side—twa of America’s most Republican states, Maine and Vermont, showed a shift almost as marked in the other direction. Not since the Civil War has Vermont given the Republican candidate for President as small a percentage of its total vote as the 55 per cent cast for Wendell Willkie this year. And in Maine President Roosevelt ran six points stronger this year than in 1936, and actually came within 2 per cent of carrying the state. Thus, whereas Maine and Ver=mont were the two states which stood out:against the Democratic landslide four years ago, this year they stood out against the na-, tion-wide Republican trend. ” u ” NOTHER interesting phenomenon is that state lines were not sharply drawn in Tuesday’s election—whole areas containing many. states tending to vote for the two candidates in almost the same proportion. A man could travel, for instance, from Massachusetts to Illinois passing through New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana and not find the proportion of Willkie voters and Roosevelt voters changing by more than a few per cent. The remarkable similarity in the vote of states in this area is attested by the following percentages which represent the vote for Roosevelt—Massachusetts 53, New York 52, New Jersey 52, Pennsylvania 53, Ohio 52, Indiana 49, and Illinois 51. This apparent obliteration of state lines is especially interesting as a check on the effectiveness of state political machines. It may mean that such machines are less effective than is commonly supposed. Unless one makes the untenable assumption that the machines of the two parties exactly cancel each other, a state with a strong Democratic machine should presumable produce a higher Democratic vote than an adjoining state with a weak Democratic machine. And the same would presumably hold true in the case of the Republicans. ” ” » ET the group of states listed above—states in which there are party machines of varying

Until 1939, Thanksgiving was observed on the last Thursday of November. When Mr. + Roosevelt moved the day ahead one week last year, it caused a nation-wide controversy in which many states had two holidays. This year 32 states will comply with the President's proclamation; 16 will observe the last Thursday of . the month. Indiana is one of the states observing the Nov. 21 date.
