nation.
This aspirant thinks that the Vol
stead act is now in legal effect a part
of the prohibition amendment and
that it cannot be literally modified
or repealed. This is a new doctrine.
To this time no one has seriously
disputed the view that congress has
a right to modify the Volstead law as
it pleases, providing it does not vio-
late the Constitution. 1t is merely
an act of congress.
Mr.. McAdoo claims that the SUI
,preme court has upheld the Volstead
provision of one-half of one per cent
and that therefore this provision can
not be changed by congress. This is
probably fallacious. The supreme
court did not pass on the policy Of the
u OF per cent provision. 1t simply
held that congress had power to fix
the percentage. If congress should
see fit to change the percentage, would
the supreme court be likely to deny
it such power? 1t depends, perhaps,
on how much kick" congress might
attempt to permit.
Moreover, congress has a funda-
mental right to amend or repeal any
law that it has power to pass. Wheth-
er the Californian is sound lawyer
or not, he is now an active candidate.

McADOO ON PROHIBITION


Mr.. McAdoo is in the ring for the
Democratic presidential nomination
under an ultra-dry flag. At Toledo
last week, before the Ohio State Bar
association, he upheld the prohibition
amendment and the Volstead law and
delivered vigorous attack against
his party associates who are inclined
to the wet side.
This address would not set back
McAdoo's chances very much if he
were Republican, but it probably
put an end to any chance he had for
Democratic nomination or an cleo
ton. But it does not eliminate him
as a leader. His views will rally to
his aid all the Democratic drys and

Recipes VS.. Politics.

A committee from the League Of
Women Voters called upon Senator
Reed to ask his support for their pro-
gram. The senator was polite but
quite insistent by his declaration
that woman's place was in the home
and not in the forum.
Get 20 men together and they talk
politics." said the senator with dis
arming smile, "but get 20 women to-
gether and they talk recipes"
THAT was true before the 18th and
18th amendments passed." agreed the
committee women, "but nowadays
when 20 women get together they
talk politics and when 20 men get to-
gether they talk recipes."-St Louis
Star.

Gets Better Offer.

=
DR.. Alfred Owre, originally from
Hammersfest, Norway, recently re-
signed as dean of the dental depart
ment of the State University of Min
nesota because Columbia university
New York, had offered him more
attractive salary. The Minnesota
board of regents, DESTROYS of retaining
faculty member who, in point of SER
vice is the oldest on the campus, was
willing to offer DIR. Owre $500, but
he has declined to accept the raise
implied in this offer, and will as
sumo charge of his department at
Columbia next summer.
Observations i'm Norway.
The Mccormick observatory of Vir-
ginia is planning to send a specially
equipped expedition to the northern
part of Norway for the purpose of
studying the total solar eclipse due
to take place June 20, this year. 1t
is said that the spot selected in Nor
way is the most favorable for this
purpose, and number of American
astronomers of the first rank will
take part in the expedition. Great
efforts and amounts of money are be-
ing expended in order to watch this
shOrt-lived phenomenon. 1t will be
of some thirty seconds duration. But
the scientific results are expected to
be great. Provided the darkened sun
is at all visible!
Wide i'm Trouble, Too.
Edwin Wide, the Swedish champion
runner, evidently is in for trouble
similar to that which befell other
visiting stars like Hoff, the Norwe-
gian, and Nurmi, the Finn. 1t de-
velops that the New England Amateur
Athletic Association has protested
against Wide's taking part in con-
tests in this country, for fear he will
eventually find himself in much more
serious trouble with the national ath-
letic association of amateurs, and
probably will be charged. with being
practically a professional.
Danish Travelling Exhibit.
Last week it was reported here that
an invitation had been extended to
Norway to be represented in travel
ing art exhibit in this country, now
being arranged by Director Fox of the
Brooklyn Museum of Arts. Word
from Copenhagen is to the effect that
such an invitation also has been pre-
sented to Denmark through the Amer
lean minister at Copenhagen. Special
stress is placed upon the fact that
Americans like to see the specimens
of Danish Industrial art which has
attained an unusually high rank in
the eyes of connoisseurs throughout
Europe, but which is not generally
known in the United States.
Cultural Heritage.
While Danish congregation in Ne
braska has decided to eliminate
Danish" from its official name, the
Swedes of America are working more
and more alertly to increase the af-
lection for the civilization brought
to this country from their old father
land. One instance is the recent or
ganization of a Chicago society for
the sole purpose of establishing in
that city a Swedish library. The So
ciety arranges lectures by visiting
speakers. and charges small admis-
sion fees which are added to the Ii
brary fund.

Schools Are Let Out
To Permit Children
To Attend the Circus

Yesterday was circus day in Doug
las. The Al. G. Barnes circus arrived
in the city late in the forenoon and
the big top was set up back of the
''Y' on the old race track. The circus
people had to hurry to get ready for
the afternoon show, but managed in
fine style.
The city schools were dismissed at
noon so that every child had a chance
to attend the big show This was
done for two reasons, one because a
circus is considered of real educational
value in that the child has chance
to see animals and peoples from other
lands about which they study at school.
The other reason is that the school
authorities do not like to make fugi-
tives from school out of half the
