by the Presidential leadership and refuses to change its position regard ing the great public enterprise, then it may we'll be that nothing definite will be accomplished before the next presidential campaign. The Muscle Shoals issue, especially if Gov. Roosevelt is nominated by the Demo- crats, would then automatically be- come a leading, if not the leading. public issue.
 The attitude of Congress regard ing Muscle Shoals, regardless of MT. Hoover's views, is not likely to change during that time; indeed, the probability is that the advocates of government operation will increase rather than otherwise.
 The net result will be that Muscle Shoals will continue to be "all dress ed up with no place to go;" but un- til this issue of power is finally set tied in conformity with the public interest rather than pre-emlnently the private interest, a public waste of opportunity in this manner is more desirable than precipitate ac- ton for the benefit of such corpor- ations as the American Cyanamid Corporation and its power lobbying satellites.

TEN YEARS OF WOMEN VOTERS

A decade ago. approximately, women of the land looked forward to a new opportunity. They would he permitted 10 vote. The more optimistic among them believed it would mark the beginning of a mil lCnnium in American history.
 Politics would be purified, The old would have to give way to the new Women, heretofore classcd with the insane and children, would be per mittcd to register their will in the methods of government.
 Whether all the good that was promised through womanly partici- patton in the ballot has taken place is scarcely subject for argument. Much good unqucstionably has been accomp plshcd; but there has been no political millennium nor politi. cal revolution.
 Women have gone to the polls 10 vote, and they go about it pretty much in the same way as their hus- bands, brothers or swccthcarts. In stead Of being independent os the political parties, they have become identified with them, and party managers were quick to give them positions in the party councils Two of them have been governors Of states, and one woman for day

moderate and constitutional Social ist program as the British Labor Party. The Government group is committed 10 policy of reconcilia- ton with both Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
 It is a curiosity of Irish politics that De Valera and his deputies subscribed to the oath of allegiance in 1927, in order to take their seats in the Dail; but at the same time they made a public announcement that they did so under duress and that the oath therefore was not re- garded as binding. The Cosgrave ministry in retaliation removed the initiative and referendum sections from the Constitution, an action which many believe unconstitutional.
 The trouble in Ireland is largely economic. The underlying political issue is the economic distress of the country. A deficit in the budget is threatened, unemployment, as else where, has increased, there is an un- favorable balance Of trade, and eco- homie distress is general.
 If under such conditions De Valera and his party could gain con- trol of the Government it would be no important advantage to the future prestige of the Republicans. It is doubtful whether they could in the slightest improve the genera economic distress. and their failure 10 do so would result in criticism and political losses.
 The prevailing opinion in Ireland seems to be that the Cosgrave ad- herents had best be permitted to wrestle with the widespread prob lens that have developed. with the other parties offering more or less constructive criticism and being most punGent in their opposition.

was given an honorary appointment as a member of the l.. s. Senate. There have been F women mem- bers of the House of Representa- tievs, there are woman office holders in most states, there have been wom- an mayors, and there are myriads of woman members of the legisla- lures. Women, however, have not held public office in proportion to their voting strength.
 Before women received the vote some men predicted that they would neglect their homes 10 en. gage in politics This tragedy has not been realized. Women remain as satisfied in their homes as ever before, or at least the homes come first.
 Others stated that participation in politics would rob them of their womanhood. Perhaps some of the more aggressive type of women have robbed themselves of some qualities of womanhood, but their number is slight.
 An observer today has stated that women have been more interested in local problems than they have been in national and international problems. Their local influence has been great in every community. If in doubt, ask the local politicians.

HOOVER AND MUSCLE SHOALS

President Hoover will be entire ly consistent if he vetoes legislation for federal operation of Muscle Shoals. His is a continuation of the Coolidge Administration and Mir. Coolidge gave the pocket veto to the Muscle Shoals bill.
 The Republican party on the whole is aligned with private en- terprise even when natural resources are needed as a foundation for such enterprise. If private enterprise. as in the case with Muscle Shoals, wishes 10 obtain a great deal at a low price, that is no determining consideration.
 The efforts of corpora tons to ob- tain control of Muscle Shoals has been Illuminating, and the more the public learns of the facts-thank5 to the lobby inquisitors-the greater the illumination.
 Even Mir. Huston, chairman of the National Republican Committee has had his hands scared in this lobbying. As boss of the National Committee he perhaps was in good position to do effective lobbying for his pet corporations.
 That the big issue confronting the Republic is to be Power there seems no doubt That is one reason why the name of Governor Roosevelt of New York is being mentioned as poten- tial candidate for the Democratic party in 1882. Mir. Roosevelt is the nations foremost advocate of gov crnment ownership of national re- sources.
 If President Hoover yetoes the kind of legislation regarding Muscle Shoals that Congress prefers to pass, and ongrcs3--cspecia the Senate as consistently refuses to abide

AGAIN THE TOLL HIGHWAY

It is said that Governor Trumbull is among those interested in the pro- posed New York-New Haven toll highway, for which a bill has been introduced in the New York Legis- lature.
 If the bill is received favorably ir New York special session Of the Connecticut Legislature is desir- ed by the promoters. The governor. however, opposes special session.
 A scheme for toll motor high way between New York and Boston, to traverse Connecticut, was broacn- ed ct the last Legislature and re- ceiyed scant courtesy. But the pro- motors are not to he turned aside SC easily. Powerful interests are saiG to be behind it.
 Opposition in Connecticut has no. been against the idea so much as against the rendering of the right of eminent domain to a private company to push it's highway more or less straight through the state.
 The new bill for the first stretch of the road 10 be between New York and New Haven evidently is an afterthousht. After all, most traffic would pay toll between the cities. and such a highway would be most successful when it tapped cities en route. Moreover, the plan now is to use the railroad right of way for at least part of the distance.
 A straight and well paved toll highway, minus grade crossings and protected from traffic hazards in a scientific manner, would en- able a motorist to zoom between the cities at an average speed of at least 50 miles an hour, and possibly in the case of powerful cars at speed of mile minute. From the standpoint of speed the railroad would at least have an effective rival, if not be outclassed. It especially would be outclassed when it is talk en into consideration that the man in the motor would not need to wait for the departure of his train and his automobile would take him di- rect to his destination in the city at the other end of the highway. The plan to link the toll highway with the New Haven railroad, build 1 ing it above the tracks in spots, and using the railroads stations in con- ! sideration of the right to the rail- road to operate motor coach lines exclusively over it, is a weakness. | Such an express highway. if built, l should be independent of railroads and one of its functions should be 10 give them competition. Especially in southern New England, where one railroad monopolizes traffic, would competitive system embody- ing speed and convenience be an ad- vantage 10 the public.

OUR HOT LITTLE CAMPAIGN

T have nothing against my op- ponent personally, but
 These words have already been uttered during the present mayoral campaign. The candidates incidental ly "are leaving no stones unturned' to "enlighten the voters" regarding the Hack of qualifications for of- flee" of the other fellow.
 Within a few days of fiery speech making-Sundays ipcluded-the To- cal campaign has turned into "one of the most interesting in the annals of the city," And whereas MT. Quis- ley, according 10 the newspape listeners, has Host his voice." so that he cannot shout as loud as usual, Mr. McDonough docs not as yet appear to suffer from this calamitous vocal breakdown, all though he has made no attempt to save his voice" when the crowd Justified political discourse.
 That all points of civic fun.tion ing will be brought up has been ln- dicated in the trend of the discus sion. Don't let 0uigley's crowd get control of that water board; don't let them get at the sewer contracts were choice morsels by Mir. Me Donough; and this after a painstak- ing resume Of the Quisley record had been stated, including the his tory Of the municipal ice house, the potato industry, and what not.
 MT. Quigley, defending his record after he had brought it into the campaign in a star role, tells the boys that Mr. McDonough is talk ing through his hat''-at about the same time that Mr. McDonough quotes more history from the Quiz ley record.
 The reporters are on the job Each candidate is assured that when he addresses only a handful of people, or addresses a hall full, that what the gentlemen of the press write about the matter will reach a far greater audience than do their voices. What the two candidates say just now IS the most important loca, news of the day. More votes are being made and unmadc by the ac- counts Of their statements in the press than through any other source. Both candidates apparent ly sense this fact, and they arc keeping the news columns Comfoit- ably warm; and it can be said also that they are educating the voters quite handsomely.
 One development Of the campaign undoubtedly is that Mr. McDon. ough is not at q loss for thos4 'trcnchant words which make in- tcrosting reading. It had possibly been thought by many citizens that Mir. Quislcy would provide most of the verbal fireworks in almost any campaign in which he participates. Mir. McDonough is showing every body that he IS not going 10 play second fiddle.
