 The political attitude of the descendants Of foregn-born population is apt to become an important factor in the coming national elec- tion The need of securing their allegiance is already being stressed by both of the major par ties. One of the strongest arguments advanced by the friends of Governor Smith is his appeal to the foreign element in large cities and now MT. Hearst the latest recruit in the Hoover camp declares that the Secretary should be nom- mated because he can largely transfer the for egn vote from the Democratic Party to the Re- publican Party"
 This raises the question of the party all legiance of voters. It is generally as- Republican Party; but this is not altogether true, for many within the Democratic fold. Although the Irish inclined toward the Democratic Party in New York in Philadelphia they are found in the Republican ranks. The Italians cannot be classified either Republican Tor Democrat. The first generation will follow the leaders they know but the second scatters and follows other than national lines The same is true of the Slavic groups, the second genera tion following the politics of the local groups The Sandinavians have generally been found in the Republican Party, especially in the progress sive wing. Of all the nations the Greeks have shown the least interest in politics, while the independence of the Jews is proverbal. No one party absolutely lay claim to monopoly o any nationality.
 Yet Lincoln elected in 1860 because tn, Republicans strong in the Northwest wher. the foreign vote the deciding factor It wal not the native Americans, but the Germans Scandinavans and Dutch who, as one trustworthy student of American history has said, decided the fate of the Union, although they then knew the least about American history and institu tons Will those elements who are not vel assmiated in our larger cities determine the political fortunes of 1928?

HOW TRANSIENT IS FAME.

Gov Alfred E. Smith during his lengthy political career has been the object of many at tacks. But it has remained for Canadian news paper editor to make the most insidous The Democratic nominee for the Presidency has achieved his highest distinctions as member of that party Now comes along Prince Rupert editor with the assertion that Al Smith is the Republican candidate. Nominee Hoover has often been accused of being a Democrat and at one time his name put before the voters in one State in the Democratic preferential primary. A mistake about his partly utilization, therefore, might be eondoned. He to have lived down that Democratic episode. Nominee Smith may get by with being called Wet, and being fought by the triple Ks because of his Catho- licsm, but if this rumor that he is Republican ever gets into general circulation his last chance is undoubtedly gone.

LET'S MAKE IT AN ANNUAL.

They are even more so when it is remembered that very few of the masters of the had ever visited these northern waters and the strange, weather conditions than mysterious in that rumbr had it that they very likely to be abominable

The 903-mile is sheltered almost the entire distance from the open sweep of the ocean and weather in the north is no more un- certain and more hazardous than on Puget Sound Shelter coyes, inlets and bays num- erous if they should be necessary. Yet the course is sufficiently different from the ordinary racing course that the average motor yacht encounters to make its negotiation real test of seaman ship navigation, engines and craft.

The First Woman Across.
(New York World.)

In their flight the Atlantic in the air plane Friendship. Pilot Wilmer Stultz, Mechanic Lou Gordan and Miss Amelia Earhart have com pleted fine bit of air navigation Miss Earhart is well fitted to wear the honors of the first woman to fly across the Atlantic She is her self an experienced pilot, that she did not need to be merely passenger in her plane.
 To The World it is for satisfaction with the work of Messrs Stultz and Gordon and Miss Earhart that it was accomplishd with due regard to safety. Their average speed was less than that which Brown and Alcock in the first crossing nine years earlier almost to day. had made with the help of high tail wind. But theirs was daring venture in which safety was not assured and getting off in a gale seemed appropriate; the crew of the Friendship besides carrying safety equipment inside, sacrificed speed by using pontoons each divided into compart- ments for further safety that engine trouble even in mid Atlantic need not have been fatal to them. It is true that Pilot Stultz had to jettison gasoline in order to rise from Trepassey; and that he made a forced landing for refueling somewhat short of the objective, Southamp ton but the main purpose of the trip would have been accomplished if he had shortened it 200 miles by landing in West Irish waters with fuel 1 to spare. Dumping gas proved to be better policy than dropping of the crew to save weight would have been.
 Like the German and Irish flyers in the Bremen, Miss Earhart, Stultz and Gordon laid their cruise along lines which are likely to be followed in commercial air transport at least for | a time. resent-day airplanes cannot make a
 nonstop flight across the Atlantic with adeouate
 crews and proper safety appliances and carry any
 useful load whatever. Using Newfoundland and Ireland, and possibly the Azores, as fuel stops
 commercial airplaning between the Old World
 and the New appears likely to become feasible
 within the the not very distant future. To have
 shared with her skilled companions in bringing | that development step nearer is higher honor for Miss Earhart than the sporting record of

 All of those who took part in the 1928 race agree it's excellence and desirability. There is why it should not become an an nual occurrence. There is much benefit to be reaped from so doing.

STOCKS CO HIGHER
/. IN F|RMER MARKET
Trading Slows Down When
Money Rate Advances
to 9 Per Cent.
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.
Special Dispatch to The Star.


NEW YORK. December 21.-The pre-
dicted Tightening in call money became
a fact today but the stock market paid
no attention to it. Volume was slowed
down and there was momentary heSi-
tation when the rate jumped from to
8 per cent in the early afternoon, and
that was all. In the later trading prices
advanced and the close was strong.
Among the features was Radio, with
19-point advance as it touched $50 in
the last hour; the rubber and tire
stocks, especially Goodyear, which
gained over 6 points; Packard Motor
with q rise of about as much. Mont
gomery Ward at new high for the
present shares and up at one time IS
points, and National Bellas Herr at the
highest for all time.
Motors Higher.
General Motors, General Electric and
Steel worked higher. There was active
buying of Standard Oil of New York,
and toward the close American Loco
motive forged to the front.
Opening prices were moderately
higher, but when the money renewal
rate of s per cent was posted realizing
made its appearance and a part of the
carly gain was lost.
In the early afternoon, however, the
railroad shares were taken up. Large
buying orders were thrown into the
market for Baltimore g. Ohio and New
York Central, both stocks responding
with advances. In the lower priced
group New Haven and New York, On
tario & Western were prominent.
Bethlehem Leads Steels.
Erie moved uncertainty in the first
half of the session, but did better later
on. The Erie November statement was
SO good that the stock might reason
ably have been expected to reflect it.
Other railroad shares in demand in
cluded st. Louis Southwestern, Chicago
u Northwestern, Pennsylvania, Rock
Island and Chesapeake & Ohio
The leader in the steel group was
Bethlehem. Blocks of 5000 shares and
more were taken at different times dur
ing the day, with the price at new
high on the movement. U. S. Steel
was up point or so during the fore
noon and Colorado Fuel was strong, but
the greatest interest was shown in
Bethlehem, where it was evident that
informed buying was going on.
Electric stocks were strong, WeSting-
house and General Electric both ad-
vancing. The copper stocks had to
meet good deal of profit-taking which,
however, they absorbed with only minor
setbacks. The amusement stocks were
in demand under leadership of Warner
Bros. Pictures and Fox Film. Radio
was higher, but Victor Talking Machine
fiuctuated uncertainty
In the motor group Hupp was the
feature, up points at H. Hudson was
higher and so was Mack Trucks, but
General Motors Jagged behind Among
the weak spots were Schultz, which
went to new low for the year, and
Freeport Texas, on which the regular
quarterly dividend of 81 was declared,
but the extra was omitted.
