LEWIS RODMAN WANAMAKER
 GATHERED TO HIS FATHERS

Atlantic City, W. J., Mar. g, (R- Lewis Rodman Wanamaker died to- day from uremia. The veteran merchant came here month ago to recover from cold and he was apparently recovering until he suf- fered relapse ten days ago.
 While one of the worlds leading merchants. Lewis Rodman Wana- maker marked his career for pos terity by his support of aviation and public work.
 Tt is not a dream" he said at one time. "that within a few years we shall be able to enter an air craft in New York on Friday, be in London on Saturday. spend the week end there and return to New York in time for business Monday"
 Wanamaker did not plot the fu- ture of aviation. but he stimulated the progress of it. His hand in it's development was simply that of an amateur enthusiast. As young man he believed that the air would some day connect two continents. and lived to see daring aviators of three countries cross the waters of the Atlantic in one hop.
 In 1914 Wanamaker helped de- sign. and had built. the America" a hydroplane. with which he pro- posed to cross the Atlantic. The project was abandoned when the war broke out and the America was turned over to the Allies.
 After Lieut.. Commander Richard F.. Byrd flew over the North Pole. he paid tribute to Wanamaker's ser vice to aviation at luncheon in his honor.
 So far did Wanamaker's interest in the conquest of the air carry him that it became his hobby to acquire for public exhibition. when possible. the aircraft which had found places in history.
 Wanamaker also had predi- lection for science and discovery which brought him to study of the North American Indian. He saw race vanishing, and believ- ing it's customs worth studying and it's relics worth preserving, he ad- vanced funds to conduct research and compile data on the Red Man.
 Three expeditions were sponsored by him under the authority of the United States Bureau of Indian Af- fairs to go into the Indian country,
 His public service also included the office of special deputy police commissioner of New York City in charge of police reserve. and well fare committee work. He was in 1924 chosen to head the mayors committee for the reception of dis tinguished guests at the time of the Democratic National Conyen- tion at Madison Square Garden.
 Son of a distinguished father. John Wanamaker. Lewis Rodman Wanamaker was born in Philadel- phia in 1863. He attended Prince ton University, was graduate iE 1886. and immediately entered the house of Wanamaker to learn the business.

The political pot has begun to bubble a little and the COP boys are grooming the favorite sons for the presidential chair
 Oregon is being stampeded for Hoover and it looks very much like the thirteen delegates from this state will go to the conven tion instructed for that baby. Hoover went to school here and lived in the southern part of the state somewhere as a boy. That is enough for the mossbacks down here and they are falling for his candidacy. It Is not unlikely from present indications that the state of Washington will also accept him as their candidate. Of course this is but the first shouting. but there is a suspicion that he is be- ing led to the slaughter. There will likely be quite number of delegates instructed for him. but they will fall far short of being sufficient to carry the nomination Of course the common ciacker will have very little to say in the selecting of the COP candidate for president. that's done by a hand full of president makers. and they are ominously quiet over the Hoov- CT bubble.

No PuSSy-Fo0ting

1t will do the Democratic ps fty
no good to find fault with the pes
ent method of law enforcement to
point out the difficulties of prohibit
ton; to claim that drunkenness has
increased; to deal in other destruc-
tive criticism. If the Democratic
party is afraid to come out squarely
for modification it might just as
well let the prohibition Issue alone,
and it might just as we'll look for
no great accession of wet votes
through the nomination of Governor
Smith.
The adoption of a pussy-footing
plank with the inference that a
candidate has been accepted who
will make it easy for law breakers,
would be toe thin to fool anyone.
Besides that, Governor Smith is not
the kind of man who would play
such a dishonest and unpatriotic
role.
If the Democratic party expects to
make any Roadway on the prohibit
ton issue, it must either fish or
cut bait.

TRACY
SAYS:
"Tke Republican Party
Has Challenged the DEM
ocrGts to Come out for
Modification of the Vol
stead Act and for the Ne
NGry-Hdugen Bill"
SAYS:

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, June IS
With the platform adopted and
Hoover nominated, the Republican
party has shaped its course with a
sufficient degree of def1niteness for
one to ask what the Democrats
Will do.
TO put it bluntly the Republican
party has challenged the Democrats
to come out for modification of the
Volstead act and the McNary-
Haugen bill.
If the Democrats fail to do these
two things, they will have small hope
Of capitalizing those elements of
discomfort which exist within the
Republican party and to which they
must look to gain the three or four
million votes that must be changed
to make a Democratic victory pos
sible.
The prohibition and farm relief
issues have been handled in such a
way at Kansas City as to leave no
room for quibbling at Houston.
The Democrats must either take
an equally c'ean-cut stand, or throw
away the OPP ~tunity to capitalize
sentiments VIII. the Republican
party has ignore.

G. 0, ?, Not Weak

We have not come to a point
where the Republican party is so
weak that it can be beaten by mere
opposition. There is no evidence
that any great detection has &C.
Cured within its ranks. Disgust
with soddenness has been offset to
to a measurable extent by the
prosperity" argument.
To win, the Democrats not only
must ALLEVIATE three or four million
votes from the Republican party,
but must persuade them that it is
to their interest to support the
Democratic ticket.
The fact that they can be alien
ated from the Republican party
does not necessarily mean that they
can be modified in the Democratic
camp.
Four years ago the late Senator
La Toilette alienated 100000, but
even that was not enough to bring
Democratic victory
Democratic victory calls for more
than Republican detection.

Last-Ditch jim

Well, Senator Watson stuck to the last
ditch. He and those "embittered farmers, ;"
led by Jack Maroney, noted cowboy prohibi-
ton agent, remembered chiefly as the one per-
son who could get into Stephenson when the
former dragon was threatening to open the
black boxes, put Indiana on the map at the
Republican convention.
The real service of Watson was to reveal
the character of that famous organization
which he boosted will spring to arms for any
thing he wants.
Of course, he has put some of his followers
in something of jam.
Chairman Rogers will have some difficulty
in claiming any leadership in this State after
his bold declaration that Herbert Hoover can
not carry Indiana. Then there is the Watson
candidate for Lieutenant Governor, who waved

One Course 0pen

I am not offering suggestions, but
stating facts.
The Republican party has opened
two doors by passing through which
the Democrats might gain hundreds
of thousands, if not millions of
votes. 1t will not only take some
courage for the Democratic party to
pass through those two doors, but it
will include the burning of quite a
few bridges.
What most Democratic politicians
want to do is to hold the prohibit
ton elements with verbose, but
meaningless plank and attract anti
prohibitionists through the selec-
ton of a candidate who is supposed
to be friendly to them.
By the same token, they will seek
to take advantage of the farmers
disappointment, but hardly to the
extent of committing themselves to
the McNary- Haugen bill.
The Republican party has run
away with the dry side of the prohi-
bition issue and the Coolidge side
of the farm issue. If the Demo-
cratic party does not take the other
side, it might as well do nothing.

a British flag and denounced Hoover in un-
measured terms; he, too, may have his troubles.
There is also Harry Leslie, who gave silent
approval to vicious attacks on Hoover, and
now shouts that, of course, Hoover is the idol of
the hour.
The fine service of Watson is that he has
demonstrated that he and his cohorts and hiS
State ticket this fall co not represent the Re-,
publican party.
Real Republicans know that they have no
ticket and no organization in Indiana. They
will find it quite comfortable to vote for Frank
Daley for Governor as they vote for Hoova:
for President.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1928-06-15
Know What They Want

The same thing is true with re-
spect to farm relief The farmers
did not come to Kansas City with
vague proposition. They did not
ask for assistance in a general way.
Their demands were clear beyond
the possibility of misunderstanding.
What they deu nded was approval
of the McNary- Haugen bill, or
nothing.
They will present the same al
tentative at Houston. If they fail
and the Democrats do no better by
them than the Republicans, they
can find little excuse for breaking
their habit Of voting the Republi-
can ticket.
The only chance the Democrats
have to capitalize the farmers dis
content is to take an unequivocal
stand for the McNary- Haugen bill.

The Arabs not only recognized the constellation of

age but they rode the desert their horses
they felt that they had grown to know each star in

We too will feel that the stars of the dipper are

The star at the tip of the handle of the dipper is
named Alcaid pronounced al-kade) Alcaid means
"the chief"
You will notice that it is blush white in color.
This means that it is very large and very hot star.
Actually it is much larger and hotter than own
Alcaid is the second brightest star in the dipper
But in 1047 the great astronomer Hersc:el called it
the brightest star in the constellation.
Herschel was an observer without equal in his day
and it is unthinkable that he could have been mis-
taken Consequently, it is supposed that Acad must
have lost in brilliance since his day.
The second star In the handle Of the dipper is

1t is also blush white in color.
The small star above Mzar, the eighth star of the
dipper, was named Alcor by the Arabs This name
means "the near one"
The Arabs sometimes called Mizar and Alcor to-
gether "the horse and rider" They also called Alcor
"the test, because they regarded it as a good test

IN a recent consideration of the
l. nerves and their control, Drs.
Foster Kennedy and Lewis Steven
son sound a warning note relative
to the control of human beings in
relationship to mental disease.
The unthinking frequently advise
marriage as a cure for unsettled
habits of life or for that sort Of
irritable restlessness that comes on
in the years beyond adolescence.
However, the specialists cited say
that for a young man or woman to
marry a person Of abnormal or per-
verted mind is to invite unhappi-
ness and tragedy not only for the
husband and wife, but also possibly
for their children.
An hereditary trend toward men
tai disease which may reveal itself
only in the form of peculiaritieS of
conduct before marriage may de-
velop under the added responsible
ties of married life into severe dis
turbances of the mind.
Physical defects Of the body
which develop during the lifetime
of the individual are not likely to
be inherited.
On the other hand, mental defect
is frequently carried on, perhaps
through the inheritance Of a dis
ordered body structure, from one
generation to another.
One of the most severe of the
conditions concerned is epilepsy.
Confirmed epileptics, all authorities
advise, should not marry. Marriage
and its added responsibilities in
variably aggravate the condition.
True many of the greatest char
acters that the world has known
were epileptic both in childhood
and in their adult life. On the
other hand, the condition is so
serious that it may well contra
indicate marriage.
Doctors Kennedy and Stevenson
point out that the various miSf1ts
in life, cranks, criminals, shut-in
personalities, and others belong

Two Big Chances

I look for the Democratic party to
side step the Republican challenge
by trying to make power and cor
ruption the paramount issues.
Power and corrupti,Ei would serve
the purpose all right, except for one
thing, and that is lack of public
excitement.
Prohibition and farm relief offer
the only hope of shifting enough
votes to alter the relative position
of the two parties. There is vide
spread discomfort in the great
agricultural sections of this country
which Usually go Republican, and
there is widespread discomfort with
Voldsteadism all over the country
These two elements of discomfort
offer the Democratic party its only
chance. If it is afraid to take that
chance, it might as we'll concede the
election.
