The Republican Debacle.
(NeW York Times.)

For such general and crushing defeats as the Republican Party suffered yesterday, general reasons must be sought The widespread discontent with the Hoover Administration and with Republican Congress, which exploded in the face of astonished politicians in the Congressional and State elections could not have been produced inflamed by any single set of circumstances or by the acts or mis- deeds of any individual actor the political stage Inevitably the heavy blows dealt Republicans by the voters will everywhere be taken repuda- ton of President Hoovers leadership of his party He will, undoubtedly, have vitriolic remarks poured over him by prominent Republicans who liked him, and who will rejoice secretly openly, at what they think his hopeleSsly shattered prestige But that is only part of the story. It is true that the President has committed grave political faults But if he had been the most adroit manager of his party ever known he could not have saved it from yesterdays disaster That com ing event cast it's unmistakable shadow before in the utter discrediting last year and this of the Republican policies proudly proclaimed in 1928.

TEN YEARS OF RADIO.

little more than ten years ago-on November 3, 1920 to be exactthe first radio broadcasting in a commercial accomplished. The feature of the first pre-aranged program were the national election returns. The station which pioneered the way in this field was KDKA of Pittsburgh. The record of radios progress the years that have just passed seems titanic and to recount it in de- tail would require large volume. single item will to indicate how gigantic has been its stride. The first transmitter of KDKA would be considered small today It is a far cry from it to the 100000 watt transmtter for which the same plant recently was granted permission from the Federal Radio Commission to operate.
 Progress has not been confined to transmitters. It has been equally great in receiving sets. The first sets fashioned from odds and ends of equipment that a live-wre Pittsburgh dealer adver- tsed, when assembled, to bring the KDKA broadcast returns into the home Today the original battery operated receivers, first to appear obsolete A- electrical sets capable of picking up signal thousands of miles way are in common
 A decade is a moment in the life of essen tial industry, and radio broadcasting has become crossed nothing. Today they aggregate $8OO,- oOOOOo annually There are almost 14,OOOOOO re- ceivers in use. Thousands of persons obtain em- ployment in broadcasting stations alone, in addition to the great number of people employed in the manufacturing and sales end of the trade.
 On the outposts of the world from Point Barrow to the farthest south from the farhes east to the remotest west, men and women gather around their receivers and hear the artists that entertain metropolitan audiences. Here is an entirely new force in the world, and how great its achievements will be in the future prophet has yet appeared to foretell.

the Imperial Government and for the support of the more than 600OO English soldiers that are !quartered within her boundaries to enforce peace. Assessments made without sanction of popularly elected Indian representatives If the leyies were subjected to vote in India they might be reduced to the loss of English bondhoders and to the bur iden of English taxpayers.
 The India problem recently occupied the efforts of the Simon's Commission, consisting of represen- tatives of all political parties in England and that it's conclusions offered real solution is evidenced by the assembling of the present conference.
 At the gathering in London, there are high ruling Asiatic possession but the meeting has been boy cotted by Indians who either are arrayed with Gandhi in his demand for virtual independence or sympathze with that part of his program which corresponds with the principle of mo taxation without popular representation"
 Whether the vast British possession with almost 250000000 population, divided among 45 races, taining 2400 castes and tribes and speaking ITO languages is capable of orderly self-government is doubted by not a few eminent students of state craft. In many quarters English rule irrespective of it's faults is deemed worthy of the approval of civilizazton. All of which may be true.
 Yet like a presentation of Hamlet" without Hamlet the London conference lacks its greatest need-utterance from India's restless millions.

GLIDERS SOAR BY SLIDING DOWN AN
 UPFLOWING WIND.

Tobogganng on air is the way meteorologist of the United States Department of Agriculture describes the art and sport of soaring in glider. Soaring" says w. J. Humphreys, of the Weather Bureau "is tobogganing down upflowing wind just surf riding is tobogganing down the front and rising side of a travelling wave Supporting breezes above the crest and on the windward side of every hill and mountain beneath the forward portion of the cumuus cloud, and the of the ocean, the matchless abatross un- willingly reveals. But except in the case of the cumulus cloud, these supporting currents rather shallow and dependent entirely on the direction and intensity of the surface winds"
 Doctor Humphreys points out that knowledge of the air and its ways is helpful and useful to any aerial pilot but in soaring it is absolutely essential Successful operators of glders who able to stay aloft for hours must know where to hunt for ascend ing currents of air and to glide from lifting current to another without losing too much altitude in the change

DRAMA LACKS LEAD CHARACTER.

There seems little likelihood that Indias troubles will be composed by the conference which convened this week in London with officials of the British Government and representatives of some hereditary and newly organized political interests of the Asiatic possession present The issues are economic. As in most other instances involving disagreemens of like character between ruling and subject peoples the questions almost impossible of settlement to the satisfaction of both disputants.
 Trade privileges and restrictions highly troversial subjects. Many phases of English merce are dependant for prosperity India. To promote maintain and direct such commerce, there is lack of parliamentary legislation and it is influenced to the advantage of Englishmen rather than to Indians, for English lawmakers and cabinet ministers rely for political existence English, not Indian voters Before commercial ills of which of English business sacrifice it's interests in some cases risk bankruptcy for great conner cia structure England is erected favored trade with India.
 Taxes are another contentious matter India bonded indebtedness and consequent interest obi- gations are heavy. She charged by England with the expenditure necessary to pay the mone- tary demands of the trading company that dom mated the possession before it passed to the for the outlays necessary the suppression of sub seouent revots and rebellions and for propor- tionate share of the cost of defending the British Empire in the World War. India is taxed to defray the expense of the administration of her affairs by

Even before the Worlds Series had its course the colleges breaking into the sports picture with their early games, few of them exciting, how ever, and more in the nature of warming-up pro cess. But now that the baseball parks are being rolled up and put in moth balls for winter that is supposedly the way, the attention of fans turns instinctively to the gridron.
 Baseball certainly is the national game It has wider and larger following than any other sport. Its devoteeS number street urchins and million aires, and a composite picture of Americas base the population with a large emphisis, of course, on the male element Baseball is peculiarly well adapted to it's premier place in Americas favor, since it is a game of personalities, rather than of royalties to cities clubs or localities
 Yet recent years have constant broad er5ng of the countrys interest in sports. The yacht races attracted more interest than be- fore. The international polo matches on Long Island patronzed enthusiastically by many thousands who couldn't afford mallet, much less pony.
 Footballers, then need have no fear. Ameri- cans not tickle precisely but they know that their baseball heroes, like bears and crickets, in variaby hibernate until the spring So they will give their full attention and enthusiasm to the grdiron for quite weeks to come The only real danger is that this baseball weather may priate Crisp, clear days are in order from now on-at least each Saturday until Thanksgiving. After that it doesn't matter-its winter then.

BEDTIME STORIES BY Y T sSse7s;

Hooty, flying rather low, passed him on
his way to the nest. OF course, Old
Man Coyote saw him. With his eyes,
Old Man Coyote followed Hooty right
up to that nest. He sat down a little
way from the tree and grinned as he
watched Hooty feeding the young Owl
up in the nest. Then Mrs. Hooty ar
rived. She saw Old Man Coyote at
once, so she few right up to the nest
beside Hooty. Then they turned and
both looked down at Old Man Coyote.
There was anger in their big, round,
yellow eyes. They snapped their bills,
which is a way they have of doing
when they are angry. Then together
they left the nest and Swooped down at
Old Man Coyote, swapping their bills
and Kissing.
Now, Old Man Coyote wasn't looking
for trouble. He had a whole lot Of
respect for those great hooked claws
He knew that hard blows could be
struck with those wings. He hadn't
the least desire to feel those hooked
bills. So Old Man Coyote held his
ground for a couple of minutes, then
turned and bounded away. He grinned
as he ran.
I've found out all I wanted to
know" said he. Farmer Browns Boy
had come over to visit that nest. Hooty
ana MIS-. HoOCy are always short tenn
pered when they are nesting. I don't
know that blame them for not want
ing people around. I probably would
feel the same way were / in their place.
Well, won't bother them any more.
This Is the last place to come hunting
with those two hunters on hand all the
time. I'll just stay away from this part
of the Green Forest"
So it was that Old Man Coyote al
most discovered that young Owl on the
ground, but didn't quite. Had he known
the little Owl was there he might have
taken chance. But, not knowing it,
he went away and did not return. He
was quite satisfied with what he had
found out and, of course, it didn't once
enter his head that he hadn't found
out all there was to find out
Meanwhile Hooty and Mrs. Hooty
were growing more and more worried
They were so afraid that as the young
Owl on the ground got bigger he might
give the secret of his presence there
away. 1t would be very great relief
when they could get him of the ground.
But that wouldn't be until he could fly.

always well to know what ones neigh
bors are doing. I believe I'll follow
this trail to find out what Farmer
Browns Boy is about. It probably does
not concern me at all, but the knowl-
edge will not hurt me-"
So Old Man Coyote put his nose to
the ground, shifted, and then started
along. So it was that in time he came
straight to the place where Hooty the
Owl and Mrs. Hooty were raising their
family-one baby up in the nest in a
tree and one on the ground, where he
had fallen. Now it happened that just
