Higher Taxes?


This newspaper frequently has pointed out that
Federal expenditures steadily increasing and that
there is no prospect of early reduction.
Budget Director Lords annual report to President
Coolidge abundantly testies to this tendency. What
was to have been surplus of $252540000 for the
rent fiscal year ending June go 1929 according to es-
mates made eight months ago, has developed into a
prospective deficit of $e4279346.
There has been increase in the estimated ex-
penditure of $244283S91, while estimated revenues
have declined by SOL 1873.
Appropriations for the current year, according to
the official figures we're $3,569OOOOOO Next year, it
is estimated, $3,7oOo0O0OO will be required Actual
penditures are likely to be considerably more.
The Government actually paid out in the fiscal
year ended June 80, 1928 the of $3,64S 600,
which was an increase of almost $150000000 the
previous year
Treasury estimates and predictions in recent years
have been wrong so frequently that it is difficult to
predict the future.
The laynan will wonder, however. if there must
not be an increase in taxes, since present revenues
do not pay the bills, and greater expenditures
are in prospect In the next few years.

Sporting Blood

Comes now Senator Watson with very
unique reason for casting ballot for Harry
Leslie for Governor.
It's sporting blood to which the Senator
makes his appeal.
Any one with an ounce of it will vote for
Leslie, says the Senator. And every one with
out any Of it will probably be asked to vote
later for Arthur Robinson on the ground that
he is needed in the nation to help the profess
sional dry leaders suppress any appearance of
sporting blood.
Somewhere in the distant past Leslie won
football game and a nickname, Therefore,
SO urges the adroit and perhaps hard-pressed
Senator, Leslie should be made GovernoS Of
Indiana to continue the reign of Jacksonism,
for which Leslie is now defender, and Bossert-
ism, which asserts it's ownership of the Leslie
candidacy most arrogantly and shamelessly
The appeal of Watson is important only as
indicating the barrenness of argument in favor
of Leslie, who ran fifth in the Republican pri-
mary, but was selected by massed action of
delegates who in other years followed the
leadership Of Stephenson and Bossert, for
time forgetting their family differences in
effort to keep the nightgown on the State
house.
If Watson could have found plausible ar
gument for Leslie, he could be counted on to
bring it forward.
As matter of fact it should take more than
"sporting blood" to induce any one to vote
for Leslie this year.
The voter will have to have enough Of the
gambler in his makeup to bet that Indiana can
survive another four years of the same infu-
ences which sent it's Governor to a court with
plea of the statute Of limitations to keep him
self out of the penitentiary.
Not even the Senator had sporting blood
enough to do what Leslie did-praise the State
administration and defend the group OF which
Leslie is the heir and successor.
Even Jim wouldn't take that chance on
making himself ridiculous.
Good craftsmanship, if it rules at all, ought
to urge the voters to give Indiana one chance
to redeem itself, and rid itself of the shame
and humiliation which it has long suffered
But Watson found reason for Leslie.
Sporting blood; and that's all-and funny.

rate, as an honorable citizen has it.
Does the United States for instance possess ma
tional honor? Don't be too quick to say yes. Are
as honorable in the mass as we are in the ndi-
Vidual?
Have you never seen a baseball player do some
thing in hot game-something for the tean1-that
he wouldn't do for himself alone?
Have you never seen baseball crowd cheer a
wrong decision by the umpire when the umpres
happened to help the home team? Hasn't most Of
the world subscribed to the philosophy that as fair

Cam you reconcile that philosophy with the notion
that there is such thing as national honor?
Well maybe you can snd we won't argue about it.
All that we have in mind here is the suggestion that
there is a form of national honor to which can
all commit ourselves. And that is refusal to enter
into any war dishonorably A requirement that our
country to be as honorable in its dealings with other
countries try to be individually in our dealings
with other individuals.
Secretary Kellogg has signed treaty in good faith
He has pledged the good faith of our country, the
good faith of each of And he really represents
attitude of mind at the moment; that is why there
need be no fear that the Senate will reject the thing
he has done.

with the rest OF the world? Are we capable of re-
quiring our Government to live up to it, this year.

Speed Widens Market

A Frenchman rises to remark that
Robinson Crusoe was not so much
after all, since he overlooked the
lobster trade for which his desc
late island" has become famous in
recent years.
That is nothing less than a libel
on Robinson Crusoe. HOLSTERS did
not mean so much in his day. In
the first place, there were too many
of them, and in the second, there
was no refrigeration or fast steam
ers to make their shipment safe.
Civilization has made many prod
ucts valuable that were worth moth
ing to primitive men.
At the same time, it is interest
ing to learn what great prosperity
the humble lobster has brought to
Crusoe's place of exile, especially
since the enterprise was born of a
romance almost equal to his own.
The crew of a Fre:lch vessel, it
seems, got too drunk to manage her.
She was wrecked and every one was
lost, except the only passenger, who
swan ashore on Juan Fernandez.
A years sojourn On that island con-
WINGED him that there was profit in
the lobster trade if he could get
fast ship, which the fortunate visit
of a wealthy friend enabled him to
obtain.

In the reign of the great Harun Ell Rachid, the de-
velopment of the medical schools reached a still
higher plane.
The Arabs not only absorbed the lore of Greek
medicine, but they also became acquainted with In
dian medicine and there were many physicians from
India in the Mchammedan empire.
Arabian medicine reached it's highest development
in Spain in the period from the tenth to the thir-
teenth century.

Dressing AfghaniStan

Transportation plays big part
in progress. The same thing that
makes it possible to ship Holsters
from Juan Fernandez to South
American ports makes it possible to
ship ideas all over the world.
What the King of Afghanistan is
doing proves the point.
The King of Afghanistan, you
remember, took a recent trip
through Europe, visiting all the
principal cities. Having seen how
the people dressed, lived and worked,
he came home a hell-bent reformer.
The 700 members of parliament
have not only been dressed up in
frock coats, but have lost their
whiskers. Women have been or
dered to unveil in public and some
of them have already learned to
drive high-powered cars. Chairs,
cups, saNcers and spoons have been
introduced.
The King Of Afghanistan is not
original, since Mustapra Renal beat
him to it in revolutionizing the ways
of Turkey. Mustapha Renal has
been obliged to set up more than
one gallows to keep the reform
movement moving, which is part
of the show the King of Afghanistan
has yet to stage.

fers a shining example Of the latter
method.
The French towns of Calais and
Caen are getting ready to celebrate
the 150th anniversary of Beau
Brummell's birth. They are a lit
tie late, since, according to the En-
cyclopaedia BRITANNICA, he was born
June 7.
Besides that, the show seems more
in the nature of a trade drive than
a memorial service, since the pro-

In spite of all the moralizing
about thrift, hard work and per-

Governor Alfred E. Smith, in
accepting the Democratic presi-
Dental nomination, leaves no
doubt as to where he stands on
the liquor question.
There may be some debate on
the success Of the present prohi-
bition Jaws, but Candidate Smiths
position is a damp one to say the
least.
He likely will find out that the
people will not return to a condi-
ton where one State is wet and
the other is dry.
We had an example on
smaller scale during the local
option days.
1t is far better that all States
be dry.
The referendum he calls for
will be held this fall.
The Governor brings the liquor
issue to the front and it will be
well that the people decide once
and for all time whether prohi-
bition is here to stay.
His appeal is directly to the vets
and his position will never be &C
copied by the drys.

OF all the pleasures afforded by
bridge, none is more exhiberating
than the ability to read the cards
held by your partner and your OPP
ponents-to see in your minds eye
the unseen-to divine by the pro-
cess of reasoning what tricks they
may win. Their holdings may be
ascertained from their bids, leads
and signals. If they bid and play
conventionally, the task is all the
lighter.
From the moment the bidding
begins, you should endeavor to
visualize the cards held by the other
players. A bid, raise, double, or
pass should convey definite infor-
nation to you. Then, when you
play your hand, you should utilize
this information. 1t should assist
you in determining the location of
the high cards and counsel you in
your fineSsing.
If in playing your hand you do
not take advantage of what you
have learned during the bidding,
you will lose many games which
could be won. When you are on
the defensive, the bidding should
mark the location of high cards to
be taken at the first opportunity
so as to prevent your opponents
from framing.
Assume that your partner has
bid one heart iintially and you hold
these four hearts, A K @ x. You
can readily mirror your partners
heart suit of five cards headed by
the Jackie. If he is bidding cor
rectly. he holds three outside quick
tricks which are probably divided
between two suits. Since he has
not bid a no trump, he probably
holds a singleton in spades or dia-
monds. You may therefore mirror
your partners hand as the follow
ing, or it's equivalent:
Spades, x; heart, j 10 xxx;
diamonds, A Xxx clubs, A K Xxx.

he could to make it possible for
each State to raise the alcoholic
content of liquor that is intoxi-
eating. He would also try to
change the Eighteenth Amend
ment so that each State could
decide whether it would manu-
facture and sell Intoxicating liquor
for use in the homes.
Hoover, on the other hand, adj
mits there are some grave abuses
in the enforcement of prohibition
and he promises a searching in
vestigation to determine a policy
Of correction. Yet he regards pro-
hibition as a noble experiment
and has no intention Of asking
for a change in either the Vol
stead act or the Eighteenth
Amendment. He opposes nulIifi..
cation but would permit every in
dividual the right to advocate
any change in either the law or
amendment.
That is really the only funda-
mental difference between Smith
and Hoover that is indicated in
their speeches of acceptance.
Smith is wet, Hoover dry.

that is the line Of greatest accom-
plishment
On the other hand we agree with
Barton in his contention that
Hoover who knows Europe" might
be bit better acquainted with the
fossilized statesmen of Europe" and
might even be able to talk to some
of them in their own language. But
the interest of the great mass, the
ones that go to the polls and cast
their vote, is right here at home.
Mr.. American Farmer is trying to
live at home, not in Europe. Par
ents who try to educate their chill
dren in temperance and the arts
of industry, do not live in Europe,
but when these same children be-
come the victim of the bootlegger or
the target Of some blood thirsty dry
agent, the sanity of the "fossilized
statesmen of Europe" becons them
to come.
Hoover, with his superior prestige
among the foreign nations, would
be a wonderful secretary of state,
and Smith just as wonderful as head
of the nation. Too bad that
Hoover is not a Democrat.

Friend of Humanity

We have our famed specialists,
our great hospitals, our endowed
clinics and our stupendous labora-
tories and we are justly proud of
them, but take away the country
doctor-the old-fashioned family
sawbones-who travels night and
day, with pill box in his hand,
knowing the peculiarities Of every
patient, and treating them as hu-
man beings, not specimens-and
what would become of us?
This friend of humanity seldom
becomes great, seldom makes the
front page, seldom accumulates
much money, seldom does anything
to startle the world. 1t is his job
to make medicine of practical value
to those who cannot reach, or cam
not afford the luxury of specialized
treatment.
His lot is cast among people who
are comparatively poor, or who
dwell in far places. But there would
be fewer of us enjoying good health
if he. were not content to trudge
his weary way.

Now that both candidates. for
President have indicated their at
titudes toward matters of larger
Importance it is possible to gain
some impression of those differ
ences which will tend to win votes.
One of the surprising minor diff
ferences is in the radio voices OF
the two men.
Smith has been praised for his
ability as a speaker and Hoover
has been regarded as a washout,
but in the first contest over the
radio the Hoover voice easily gets
the blue ribbon.
That may not be highly impor-
tant, but again it may indicate
that Hoover is not the voiceless
creature he has been depicted.
Smiths voice was harsh and his
speech was hating as one reading
a strange manuscript. OF course,
it wasn't strange.
AS was expected. the main diff
ference beween the candidates is
on the liquor question. Smith
would change the Volstead act so
as to give a scientific definition
to liquor that is Intoxicating,
which means he would do what
