CALVIN COOLIDGE may trail the
" letters an. d.. after his name in
the future if he wants to. The Inter-
national Post Graduate Medical AS
sociation of North America presented
the president with diploma. The
president earned it. He eats country
sausage for breakfast and keeps his
mouth shut most of the time. A man
who can survive these two penalties
is entitled to any honor running
around loose. Be that as it may, me-
thinks Cal would be happier if some
political soothsayer guaranteed him
a third term.
AN impersonation of Arthur Brisbane
n turning out his column. Ruth
Snyder and Henry Judd Gray killed a
man. What of i'll The trouble is,
they did not know how to make a
clean getaway. Now, had Mr.. Gray
taken an airplane and flew to Ro-
chester the Bomb Squad would have
never heard of him. $4,000 airplanes
stationed at strategic points could
protect New York from the worst that
the Abyssinian army could do. And
if Calvin Coolidge is reelected he will
not serve third term. 100000 air.
planes would be cheaper than one
earthquake.
THERE is paper called "The Yellow
l Jacket" It's aims and objects are
meritorious. Here are few of them:
"To swat liars and leeches, hypocrites
and humbugs demagogues and das-
tards." What a bastard is we do not
know but they can go as far as they
like against the humbugs. In all
probability the editor of "The Yellow
Jacket" is a champion humbug. He
makes living at it.
DEFORE these words appear in print
y Great Britain may have sundered
diplomatic relations with the Soviet
Union. The raid on the Soviet trade
delegation headquarters did not pro-
duce any sensational documents but
enough to give the British government
an excuse for breaking off relations.
That was the motive for the raid. The
struggle between the political idea
back of the Soviet government and
the capitalist system, will continue I'M
til one or the other bites the dust. The
capitalist system is doomed to kiss
mother earth because evolution de-
crees it. The Soviet Union represents
the new form Of society which is de-
veloping in the womb of capitalism.
The British government is playing the
role of social abortionist, without sue
cess.
THE president of the French republic
and the foreign minister of the
same country did not visit England
merely to see the beef eaters in the
Tower of London. The visit was
merely the consummation of an agree
ment already reached between the
British and French foreign offices.
The main note of the supposed agree
ment was hostility to the Soviet
Union. Of course, agreements often
times fall by the wayside. 1t is quite
possible that some other group of
French politicians may wreck the
present entente between England and
France. And it is also quite possible
that before the Tories reap the fruits
of the new understanding, general
election may send them to the sticks.
All those possibilities and probabili-
ties must be taken into consideration.
Life is not simple and politics is worse
than that.
DURING his thirteen years of mar
FRIED life a gentleman from Hoboken
managed to desert his wife ten times
and had ten children by her. Yet a
hard-boiled judge confronted him with
the alternative of spending year and
4 a day in Jail or posting bond guar
a-rteeing $40 week to his wife for
the, duration of that time. The de-
fendant is still undecided as to what
he should do. The man might have
made the New York to Paris flight
and won the title of the Perfect
Fool"
HERE is one reason why Marshal Pill
IL sudski is running and running
y Poland: The inhabitants of Polish
village near Danzig recently broke in
to the house of wealthy landowner
intending to kill him and demolish a
wireless set which they believed was
responsible for thunderstorm that
ragged thruout the night. The wealthy
landowner not wishing to die before
he spent some more of his death
dropped on the floor and laid as if
dead. Those who came to kill did not
remain to pray. They fled in dismay.
Of such is Fascist government COM
posed--until the militant minority
gets busy.
