IOWA STIRS ,EM UP

Iowa again has the center of the stage Two
meetings are to be held there this week which may
deeply affect political developments.
One is conference of the representatives of
the eleven socaled corn belt States The other
is the Republican State convention.
The farm conference, called by Governor Hamill
of Iowa has its avowed object passage by the
next congress Of agricultural relief BILL modelled
on the McNaryHaugen bill with it's 1915 100000 re-
voving fund which was rejected by the session just
ended An alliance of the farmers in the wheat and
cotton areas with those of the States is certain
to be discussed So is tariff revision.
The Republican convention will be asked to rat
ify the nomination of ex-senator Smith w. Brook
hart who defeated Senator Albert B. Cummns on an
anttCooidge platform, which denounced the world
court, the Mellon tax reduction program and the
foreign debt settlements, and upheld the McNary-
Haugen bill which Coolidge opposed. The issue is
clear cut The convention not uphold both
Coolidge and BroOkhart.
Politicians wondering to what extent the re.
bellion in Iowa may be regarded symbolic of feel
ing throughout the agricultural west.

Ponder the Cards

= We are, about to sit in on an ugly
game and weJ would better think
twice before deciding just what cards
to play.
The consequences are not to be
measured by what the ledger shows.
We have become the worlds rich
man surrounded by a lot of poor
debtors.
Our own law provides that poor
debtors can go into bankruptcy and
wipe the slate clean when they get
to a certain point.
Have European nationsA-all ex-
cept England, perhaps-reached that
point?
I do not make these observations
with any clear conviction of what
ought to be done.
I am one OF those perplexed citi.
zens and there millions, think, who
can't see daylight as yet. but who
realize that we face very serious
problem.
About the only thing I am sure
Of is this:
\ have boy 10 years old and ]
am not going to raise him to be a
rstcifist, but I would hate to think
OF him shouldering a gun to collect
a debt of which my share is only
about 800.

WHY WORRY?

Hysterical alarmists who convinced that the
younger generation is headed straight for the bow
vows may find grain of comfort in the observation
of Dr. e. c. Broome, superintendent OF the Philadel
pha public schools.
The schocboy Of today is better behaved than
was his father, is happier in his work, makes better
of his time, and is getting better brand of edu
cation than used to be dispensed in the little red
schoolhouse. All this according to Dr. Broone.
Certain it is that education today is making a
rather strenuous effort to please the American
dent body with its diversity of subjects and scen-
tifc methods of instruction 1t has overcome it's
status as dreaded ordeal and has become welcome
part of adoescent life. Surely perditon and educa-
tion do not lie long the same PATH

The new foyer and lobby give
space and distance, sort of a grand
feeling when you enter. Remember
that every real theater owner knows
that these grand entrances, backed
up with fine exit, make a real the.
