The Horse, Again

The idea of fueess motor is intriguing to
most of us. What revolution it would cause
in the motor industry! What boon to man.
kind! What calamity for oil!
But it sounds too good to be true. The mo-
tor may be fuelless, for all we know of it, but
there's far from possibility of it's practical
use in automobiles, let alone airplanes. II
hasn't been built up to practical and disable
size, and it hasn't been tested under actual,
positive conditions.
Even if it did prove practicable for aviation.
however, it is designed to run at one definite
speed. And that lets it out Of consideration
in motoring, where variable speed motor is
desirable.
Let's go further and admit this fuelless mo-
tors practicability to motoring, will it even
then hurt the oil industry?
Well, it was said years ago that the truck
and tractor would put an end to the horse Yet
there are more horses in this country today
than there were before automotive power came
into us.
What looks like revolutionary innovation
may be just another step fitting itself into the
progress Of industry and mankind

Official City. State and County Newspaper
National Campaign Puzzling

Conditions politically are pulling in both
Republican and Democratic ranks. AT this
writing ii is apparent that no candidate either
Republican OF Democratic, will have sufti-
Gent number of votes pledged in advance Of
the meeting of the conventions.
Hoover may lead Lowden, but in any event,
neither of these candidates will go into the
baoting with enough strength to be consid-
cred sure winner, Judging only Of course from
what has transpired to date Another 30 days
may put Hoover so far in the lead that his
nomination can be predicted and again the
same may result in the case Of Lowden.
At this writing, AZ delegates have been in
structed for Lowden, 33 for Hoover and 81 for
Curtis. New York's 80 delegates are unin-
structed. In Missouri, two delegates are for
Dawes.
There seems to be a well defined impression
that the Coolidge organization favors Hoover
above all candidates mentioned as presidential
aspirants. The political leaders who usually
dominate the national Republican organization
have been playing waiting game-it may be
that no clique is strong enough to dominate the
situation or that the time is not ripe to start
the steam roller.
In New Hampshire, delegates seeking cleo
ton on the Republican ticket are pledged for
Hoover, except one who announces Coolidge as
The contest between the eastern clique Of
Republicans backing Hoover, and the west,
espOusing Lowden and several favOrite sons,
may wax so bitter Moses may rise from the
political bullrushes to save the situation from
a hopeless deadlock. At this writing the NOM
ination is anybody's and sentiment is far from
the capitalization stage.
In Democratic circles the situation is not as
complicated. Governor Smith Of New York
will go into the convention with large bloc
of instructed delegates, but under the two
thirds rule, the opposition may break down
that support and force a nominee not even
mentioned now. Senators Reed and Walsh
have been entered as means to control the
anti-Smith group of delegates and form a basis
for real contest against the popular A
Smith.
All in all, both conventions should prove
most interesting political contests and ones i'll
which the issues are going to be most vehe-
mently discussed.

Editorial Comment
Passing Aristocracy Around
Chicago Tribune)

Henry Wales, writing from Moscow says
that Russian family Of four is expected to
live on All income of $45 month. Forty-fivc
dollars may go little farther in Russia than
it does in this country, but not much farther.
The coarsest kind of food for the family costs
dollar day. That leaves little enough for
clothing. Shoes cost SIS pair, socks SO cents,
and a shirt comes to dollar. Rent is next to
nothing. The whole family lives in one room
and it costs only dollar a month. That is
about what it is worth. It is eight feet square
and has one window. For entertainment, this
family gets tickets occasionally to a movie CT
to the theater, and once or twice in the sum-
mer free transportation to trade union picnic.
About all that can be said for life among the
Russian masses is that it is not much better
or worse than it was before the Russian revo-
luton when society was aristocratic. Then
the ideal was glorious upper class, small
middle class which managed to get along in
relative comfort, and miserable lower class
which included nearly the whole population.
The artistocratic ideal persists in modified
form in much of Europe. Engishmen know
their place and it is no easy achievement tc
rise from it. By way of improving on the
aristocratic scheme, the bolsheviks have
dragged every one to the level of patched
clothing, Wretched food, and howell dwelling.
The American ideal to European aristo-
CTdL DIS 20 a DOlSneVlk is FANTASTIC. lney Sdtu
it wouldn't work and have persisted in that
view chiefly by closing their eyes to the evil
dence. The American ideal Is to raise the
people at the bottom to the cultural and eco
nomc level of the European aristocracy, and,
all things considered, we have done pretty well
toward achieving the ideal. We have made i.
possible for men to rise as far as their brains
and ambition will carry them. We have never
believed that the possession of father is of
itself proof of superiority and we do not think
misery is proof of virtue. We despise idlers
and MASTERS, and we do not think inherited
money as good as earned money.
Few in this country have even slim Claim
to nobility in the European sense. Our out
standing men are, for the most part, the de-
scendants of peasants, farm laborers petty
merchants, impoverished mechanics, and GRIM
inals. Had our forbears remained abroad we
should, most Of us, be little better off than
they are. We should be working the same
fields by hand labor, eating the same coarse
food, living with few comforts, lifting the cap
to the lord of the manor. The contrast be-.
tween our well-being in America and the con-
dition Of the lower classes in Europe from
which we are all sprung is the measure of
the success of the American experiment. We
leave it to the aristocrat and the bolshevik
alike to laugh that off.

Lock the Car

For the first few months, while the car is
bright and shiny, the new owner scrupulous'y
locks the ignition and the coincidental lock,
snaps the door catches, pulls up all the WIN
dows and turns the key in the front door lock.
The car is securely and safely guarded
against thieves. If the new owner had a heavy
chain and lock, he'd also lash the wheels tc
some convenient post. That's how careful he
is-at first.
But that sense of care soon wears out, and
before long he forgets to snap the door catches.
Then he neglects the door lock-since there's
nothing inside for thief to take.
Finally the owner comes to the point of neg
lecting to lock any part of the car-eyen the
ignition.
And the car is stolen!
Most auto thieves look for just such negli-
gent motorists who rush out of their seats as
soon as they have parked, even before the last
chug is out of the motor. They're easy prey.
No more than the turn of key, casual
survey. IS needed to insure its presence when
the driver returns to the car. 1t takes min
ute, yet we are SO hurried to get to a game,
or theatre party, or even a conference where
half the time is lost in trivialities, that we
take the chance Of losing hours and days there
after in waiting for our retrieved car, if it can
be found.
We'd never think Of leaving our homes un-
locked on leaving them for while.
