The Campaign Close

with the campaign swinging into the closing DAYS
forecasts from the rival camps indicate that both are
greatly worried. and that the claims made BY both
Smith and Hoover leaders arc based more upon hone
TIM facts. 1t is a human characteristic to place I'M
pbclt faith in reports favoring that political party with
wncih the individual is aligned and to discount favor
able reports from the opposition. This characteristic
IS being worked over time in the present campaign.
OnpreJudiced political observers frankly admit they
are at a loss to predict the outcome Of the election
Party alignments have crumbled before the
onslaughts Of various forces. Sectional and religious
issues have entered into the battle in practically every
part Of the country, and the most skilled observer can.
not accurately predict what effect these issues will
have in determining the winner.
There can be little doubt that the democratic can.
didate has gained strength the past two weeks in both
the Central West and East. In the South the Hoover
forces claim they will trample down the bUlwarks u
democracy, but democracy is not visibly worried By the
threat. Hoover stock has risen in the West, which was
staunchly Hoover at the outset, and will have no effect
upon the electoral vote. The Literary Digest poll
which started out to round up the opinions Of some
100000 voters, brought forth the replies from APP
p%roximately 100000. or some IA per cent Of the total
TO whom ballots were mailed, indicating that the voters
were either not inclined to publish their political views
or were Withholding a verdict to be announced at tho
polls. The Literary Digest poll show a. of the IS states
for Hoover, which tas been greeted with shrill shrieks
Of laughter from the democratic leaders, who contend
that the Digest did not reach the w%orkihgmen and
others whom they state will be almost solid for the
democratic standard bearer.
However, in a few days the predictions and straw
votes will all be in the discard. The American public
will have spoken, and the successful candidates will
greet the verdict with acclaim and the unsuccessful can
accent il with snarls or smiles, according to their TEN
persments and sportsmanship.

GOVERNOR SMITHS VIEW ON TARIFF

NCh1Sabo bdh NEWS.
In his latest declarations on the tariff Governor
Smith, curiously enough, has adopted in essence the
position which the republican party held four years ago
and which it has abandoned this year.
Governor Smith is opposed to any general revision
Of the tariff law, whether upward or downward. He
believes that business stability and national prosperity
are disturbed unnecessarily by the old political pro-
cesses Of tariff making. He favors piecemeal revision
on the recommendation Of a fit and independent tariff
commission and after open hearings by a congressional.
committee
A radical change in the method Of appointing the
tariff commission is urged by Governor Smith. He
would make it strictly nonpartisan, not bipartisan.
Apparently he favors modification or repeal Of the pro-
vision which empowers the president to increase or re-
duce rates Of duty upon the advice Of the commission
His idea is that well-informed men Of high character
and business experience, or scientific students of eco
Monies, and International trade, should constitute the
commissions membership, wholly regardless of their
political affiliations.
Moderate protectionists who have at heart the in
terests of the consuming public and who realize the
possibilities of grave abuse Of the protective principle
by industrialist greed ard spoils politics should wei
come the scrapping by Governor Smith and the Hous-
ton platform Of the traditional democratic stand on the
tariff. Their explicit espousal Of protection as a pol
icy, with differences in production costs here and
abroad as the sole standard in the fixing of tariff
rates, is greatly to the party's credit.

The World and All
THE POOR
By Charles r. DriscoIi

a year ago | saved a squirrels life. | felt quite
noble about it, and the poor squirrel was very grateful.
Two squirrels have been living in the trees near
our apartment house. For three years they have been
accustomed to climb the fire escape 10 one OF our bed
room windows and get nuts that have been handed out
to them. They would eat from our hands.
One morning when | was dressing I heard a great
squeallng under our windows. On looking out, | saw
ono of the squirrels in the clutches Of n biz black cat.
and letting out an occasional squeal while Tommy
chewed at his throat.
! yelled 50 loudly at the cat that | awoke the entire
neighborhood, and then began throwing my wife's per-
fume bottles and other toilet articles at him. Tom
reluctantly dropped the squirrel and drew of to con.
slider the next move. The injured animal looked weax-
~ and gratefully up at me, and painfully climbed a
tree.
IL was a month before the injured squirrel cane
again to the window. He was thin and weak and badly
SCARED. Also, he was a nervous wreck, always chatter
ing about eats, and looking over his shoulder at every
rustic Of leaves.
Through the months that followed the little animal
became sleek and fat again, and resumed some Of his
confidential air. But the british black cat from a
house up on the hill had tasted squirrel blood, and
would never rest until he should obtain a full square
meal of squirrel meat.
1t happened yesterday. | don't know how il came
about, but II makes me sick to think that wasn't there
with my loud voice and perfume bottles to rescue the
poor little squirrel again.
Clearly, the squirrel made his mistake in being born
and reared without means Of defense. He had to de-
pend upon flight and the intervention Of higher powers
to save him from his enemies. When he was trapped
by the enemy, doubtless he called out with much faith
and force, but the higher powers were all busy or eat
ing. So the charming, defenseless squared made a
meal for Tommy.
It's set ne to thinking. I'm a pacifist all right. and
hope for everlasting peace on earth, but DO hope that
our country viii not find itself in :he position Of the
charming little squirrel ONE day. IN n world where
eats prowl, squirrels are sadly out Or date.
